be able to gain only a short lease of
life. 1t was granted there would be
liberal plurality, but it was expected
the margin would be so small that the
government might be quickly steered
toward the dangerous rocks projected
have exploded that theory. The CONF
position of the new parliament will be
approximately: Liberals, 376; union
lists, 100: nationalists, "a; laborites, so.
If all the opposing elements should
combine the liberals would have a
clear majority of 80. The laborftes
however, are expected to work with
the government, having seat in the
cabinet and being in sympathy with
the fiscal plans of the premier. This
will give him the most imposing ma
jority that has ever been found back
ing the government. 1t the. national
lists shall finally line up in opposition
to the government they will not come
within reaching distance of a balance
of power.
The emphatic majority given the
new government cannot be construed
alone as reputation of the proposed
protective policy, for Mr.. Balfour took
pains not to go before the people
squarely on that issue. In general 1t
Is construed to mean popular dis
satisfaction with various details of
the Balfour management, not the least
Of which was Mr.. Balfour's action in
hanging onto the premiership after it
had become apparent he had lost pop
ular confidence. The Boer war ane
the Introduction of Chinese labor in
South Africa We're charged to the con-
sentative ministry to its disadvantage
Even the Japanese alliance, which has
been approved internationally as
master stroke of diplomacy, did not
prove popular at home
The new premier will have an UNI
expectedly favorable chance to show
what he can do with the reins.

The new pump at the city water
works is pumping enough water to
give every man, woman and child in
the city two hundred gallons every
day. This shows an awful waste Of
water somewhere. In fact it is
figured that about one million gallons
of water are wasted every day in Ke-
nosha by people who do lot use
meters. The city schools use about
one-tenth of all the water pumped
during school days. This, of course,
is furnished free and large part Of
it goes to waste, but the only way in
sight to do away with wasting
water is to compel every user of water
to put on meter. If this was done
the commissioners could afford to
make lower rate than they are now
giving, although the present meter
rate is only one-half the price charged
in Racine and other cities of similar
size. During the hot weather the
new pump has been worked twenty
percent over its capacity and it will
be but short time before the commits
sioners will be obliged to spend $780,
900 for another pump and a new in
take if the excessive waste is not
stopped. If meters we're put on every
connection this large expenditure Of
money could be obviated for number
of years to come, SO we can not see
why it would not be good business
to order meter on every connection
made with the city mains and surely
nothing could be fairer to all parties
concerned.

NO SPLIT TICKET
Democrats of State to Vote the
Straight Ticket From Top
to Bottom This Election
LEADERS ARE IN SESSION

The Democratic slogan is going to
be "Vote the straight ticket from Top
to bottom.''f All trading is to be
|eschewed and nothing but the prin-
ciples of simon pure democracy and
those whosrepresent these principles
are to be voted for.
This was the key note struck by all
the speakers at the meeting of state
and county candidates which was held
Tuesday night at the Plankinton
house, Milwaukee. r. S. White,
chairman of the Democratic county
committee of Milwaukee, had called a
meeting of the county candidates and
State Chairman Fl. H. Manson had
called the state candidates together,
each being IN ignorance of the other
meeting. When the fact of both meet
ings became gknown a joint session
was decided on. The meeting was at
tended by all the state candidates,
several of the county and legislative
candidate and a few of the wheel
horses.

the chances for Democratic success
this year, if only the party will pre-
sent a united front. The Importance
of supporting the entire ticket was
forcefully insisted on, and more than
one speaker predicted that the tenta-
tive platform put forth at the A1ham-
bra theater convention this summer
will be unanimously adopted at Madi-
son.
The speakers were John A. Ay1ward
of Madison, candidate for governor;
M. E. Blenski, candidate for 1ieuten-
ant governor; Clarence j. Noel, can
didate for secretary of state; Andrew
Jensen, candidate for state treasurer;
Martin L. Lueck, candidate for attor-
ney general; Henry j. Nuens, candi-
date for insurance commissioner.
At the conclusion Of the speech
making the state candidate retired to
the quarters of Chairman Manson
where all animated and informal dis
cussion of plans for an aggressive
campaign was held. While the sub
ject of Chairman Manson's reelection
was not discussed it was strongly in
timated that he will be chosen at the
Madison meeting without dissenting
voice

England's Burning Question.

parliamentary recess brought no
peace to the English public. The one
burning question of the whole session,
that upon which the election which
brought the parliament into being
turned and the one that may yet play
all sorts Of mischief with parties and
ministers, popular education, was left
suspended between the two chambers,
the house of commons and the house
Of lords. Theological passion has
been aroused to an unusual degree
over the bill for educational reform
introduced by the government in the
house of commons and after discus
sion sent to the house Of lords, where
strong opposition is certain. Nothing
happier is expected than that the bill
will be sent back to the commons soon
after the session is resumed, radically
altered if not beyond recognition.
AS the bill stands it is believed not
to fully represent the government
view. It was built up on asseries of
compromises. IF the lords virtually
reduce 1t to a nullity the government
may withdraw the bill and substitute
4 shorter measure to relieve the spe-
cial grievance created by the educa-
tional act of 1902 and thus tide over
the crisis without really settling the
problem.
At this point the question branches
out into the larger one of radical re
form in British politics. If this Liberal
education bill is to fail it will be The
fault of the house of lords. Now there
is In the majority in the house Of com
mons a very powerful element that
would like nothing better than an open
fight with the upper house, and ques-
ton which enlists widespread popu-
lar sympathy, like this Of popular edu-
cation, would furnish a suitable cause
for war. If the battle should be Joined
1t will probably result in giving the
British public a chance to decide at
The polls whether the house Of lords
shall be abolished. Once this issue Is
raised social or socialistic changes of
larger import than the religious tone
of education will be urged and perhaps
bury the school controversy out Of
sight.
