MILWAUKEE has an institution
known as the Bureau of Investigation
and Protection, which aims to inves-
tigate thoroughly and promptly every
case of subscription solicitation in
that city, and to notify every sub
scriber to the bureau in cases where
fraud is detected. Kenosha people
have been the innocent victims of
enough of these kinds of swind1ing
operations to make one wish that
there was an institution of this kind
in this city. The average business
man has no time to investigate for
himself every appeal for assistance
made to him, and in most cases he
hands over his money without any
real knowledge Of the object for
which he gives itor the honesty of the
solicitor he gives it to.

IF the county board orders the as
sessment rolls for the whole county
printed we believe that it will do
more to make an equitable assess
ment possible than anything It could
do. The tax dodgers would be shown
up by this method and every improve
ment made would call for cores
ponding increase in the assessment.
Every property owner would be a
supervisor of assessments for his own
neighborhood, and any inequalities
would be brought to the notice of the
board Of review or the assessors in
short order. 1t would cost some
money, but in every place where it
has been tried the supervisors have
decided that it is worth all it costs.

WHEN the consolidation Of the te1e-
phone companies of the city is finally
accomplished and the monopoly gets
it's grip on the entire business again
the people of Kenosha who use te1e-
phones may expect to pay all the ex-
penses of the fight against the indie
pendent company with good stiff
charge additional to pay for the
trouble the monopoly has been put to.
The outlook is anything but cheering
and there is nothing in sight but
higher charges and the old miserable
service for Kenosha telephone sub
scribers. For the business men who
now have to have both phones the
charges may be slightly lower with
one company than with the two but
with the kind of service that past ex-
perierce with the monopoly has
taught them to expect they will be
paying long price for what they get.

THE political situation was cleared
up Saturday when Irvine L. Lenroot,
of Superior, announced his candidacy
for the nomination for governor.
This means that Governor LaFo1lette
IS going to the senate, and that Len
root is his choice for the support of
the administration machine. The
other ambitious leaders of the gov
ernor's forces who have cherished
gubernatoria1 aspirations since his
election to the senate are expected to
acquiesce quietly in this arrange
ment, but unless all sight fail some
them are going to balk and male
trouble. If they do the campaign for
the nomination will be lively one.

The reports which have been sent
out from Washington at frequent in
terva1s Of late that President Roose-
ve1t's views on the subiect of railway
regulation had undergone consider
able modification since he wrote his
last message 20 Congress, were evil
IDENTIFY without foundation and not
authorized by him. He is frmer than
ever on this point and more deter
mined that Congress shall take some
action to correct existing abuses. His
North Carolina speech Thursday
should set at rest all doubts as to just
where he stands on the question, and
foreshadows his next message to Con-
gress, the dominant note of which will
undoubtedly be an insistent demand
for railway regulation. He said:
"The abuses of which we have
genuine right to complain take many
shapes Rebates are not now often
given openly. But they can be given
just as effectively in covert form, and
private cars, terminal tracks, and the
like must be brought under the con-
troll of the commission or adnlinistra-
tive body which is to exercise super
vision by the government. But, in
my Judgment, the most important
thing to do is to give 70 this admins
trative body power to make its find
ings effective, and this can be done
only by giving 1t power, when COM
plant is made Of given rate as be-
ing unjust or unreasonable, if it finds
the complaint proper, then itself
to fix maximum rate which it re-
CARDS as just and reasonable, this rate
to go into effect practically at once
that is, within reasonable time-and
to stay in effect unless reversed by
the courts. l earnestly hope that we
shall see law giving this power
passed by Congress. Moreover, /
hope that by law power will be con-
ferred upon representatives of the
government capable of performing the
duty of public accountants carefully
to examine into the books of rail-
roads, when so ordered by the inter-
state commerce commission, which
should itself have power to prescribe
what books, and what books only,
should be kept by railroads. If there
4 is ia the minds of the commission any
suspicion that certain railroad is in
any shape or way giving rebates or
behaving improperly, wish the COM
mission to have power, as matter of
right, not as matter of favor, to
make full and exhaustive investiga-
ton Of the receipts and expenditures
of the railroad, so that any violation
or evasion of the law may be de-
tected.

STATE TAX is CUT
Over Million Dollars transferred to.
Interest and State School Funds

O"SA a NAAlAAon DOilaTs transferred to
Interest and State School Funds
The largely increased revenues of
the state during the last year have
induced the state officers to order
81, 40, 484 transferred from the gen.
eral fund TO special funds for the pur-,
poses of meeting the interest on the
state debt, and the fixed and special
appropriations for the free high
schools. graded schools, university
ard state normal schools. The trans
fer is made under authority conferred
by section 1069a of the Wisconsin
statutes of 1898.
In consequence of the transfer the
only state tax to be levied this year
will be that for the aid of common
schools of the state. The statutes
provide that the rate of taxation for
this purpose shall o. 7-10 of a mill
per dollar of valuation of all property
of the state that is taxed. To the
amount raised in this manner $780,
900 is added from the general fund.
Formerly the rate of taxation for
common school purposes was one
mill, but when the valuation of the
taxable property of the state was
greatly increased several years ago
the rate was reduced. The. state Of
ficers estimate that 81, loo, 800 will be
raised this year under the 7-10 mill
tax.
This is the third year such trans
fer of funds has been made. It is not
because of the economy of the present
administration that this can be done,
but because the general revenues of
the state have increased wonderfully
in the last three or four years.
The action in declaring this small
portion of the state tax off will cut
little figure in Kenosha city and
county, and the tax for the city will
probably remain at the old figure of
one per cent or over.
The state tax will, of course, be less
than in former years, but the amount
will be of little significance.
