DEATH OF A PUBLIC BRSEFAcrOR

At his home in Knapp Dunn county,
last Friday, the Honorable Albert r.
Hail. died after brief illness In the
passing of Mr.. Hall the state of Wiscon-
sin loses a benefsctor. For long series
of years Mr.. Hall was the leader in the
lower house of the stete legislature and
the common people look to him az their
friend and supporter. To his Jealous,
untiring and unselfsh labors more than
to any other man is the commonwealth
indebted for the wholesome reform leg
islation enacted during the past two and
present session of the Legislature. ne
was the pioneer in advanced thought
and agitation in the matters of tax re-
form and antipass legislation. 1t was
he who stirred the people to f-protect-
ion for equal taxation and representa-
tive government. Other men seconded
his efforts and as a result Wisconsin
is today the foremost state in the union
in fsr-reaehing reform legislation.
Every man associated with Mr.. hall in
legislative work is grieved to learn of
his early demise, All acknowledge his
unselfish devotion to public duty, his
kindly nature and regard for the rights
and feelings of his colleagues. His in
dustry in the legislature was proverbial
He was high minded, unassuming, I'M
compromising where principles were in
yolved. Mr.. Hall was sixty-four years
old, born in Vermont. He served four
years in the Civil war was seven years
a member Of the Minnesota legislature,
three of them as speaker of the house
He came to Wisconsin in the eighties,
locating in Dunn county, where his abil-
ity and integrity was quickly recogniz
ed. He represented that county in our
legislature for ten years, refusing re.
nomination by his party in 1909
On Sunday last it was the privilege Of
the writer TO attend the funeral of this
most estimable man, in company with
party composed of state officers and
members of the legislature. The ont
pouring of country neighbors and dem
onstrations Of grief on their part was
true index of the high character of thei
friend and public benefsct5r. By trair
and private conveyance came citizsn
from long distances to pay a parting
farewell to this remarkable man. Gov
La Toilette spoke briefly, paying fin,

NEW VINE IN AN OLD BOTTLE.

1t is fifty-seven years since the cnnsti-
tuition of Wisconsin was adopted. The
state at the time of it's organization had
less population than any one of half OF
the counties in the state have now. The
convention was composed of the best
men of the old territory, and they were
able to construct a constitution, having
the models Of other states to go by, that
has been pretty generally satisfactory,
or that has been kept so by frequent
amendments, until the present time.
There are fourteen original articles to
the constitution, and sixteen amend
ments have already been adopted, be-
sides several that are now going through
the mill. So it will be seen that the
wisdom of the fathers" was not sufi-
cient for all time to come. What the
convention of 1S48 did has become q
patchwork and should doubtless be re-
placed by new constitution. 1t has
served its purpose tolerablY well, but it
Is not a twentieth century constitution.
1t is over half century old; and the
state is not the state that adopted It,
any more than 1905 is is4S The legis-
lature should arrange to let the people
say whether a convention should be
