For State Organization.

State Saloon Keepers association and
indications are that the organization will
be an actuality before another month.
The liquor dealers declare openly that
they refuse to mind the temperance
workers, who thus far have failed to get
a conviction in the courts and frankly
admit that all will stand by each other
in the matter of paying the expense OF
litigation in the event of arrests being
made.
Crusade Will Continue.
On the other hand representatives of
the temperance forces declare they will
continue their crusade against fragrant
violation of Sunday laws and will on
Monday morning file charges against ev-
cry saloon keeper against whom they
have positive evidence that he sold liquor
on Sunday or to minors. Rev. A. IL.
Zechiel, formerly of Milwaukee, who is
credited as being the leader of the cru
saders, declares that it is not his pur-
pose to antagoniZe anyone, but he in
tends to see that the liquor dealers do
not overstep the right given them by law
to sell liquor six, and only six, days
each week.
The fight between the liquor interests
and the temperance people in Appleton is
now at it's height and indications are that
it will be some time before the courts
will have disposed of the cases that will
accrue during the next week or ten days.
Want All to Close, or None.
The saloon men declare that they will
not be Disseminated against or persecut-
ed and if they are obliged to close 10
their places of business on Sundays then
they will see to it that all other business
business conducted on Sundays is
stopped.

A SWELL DINNER PARTY.

One of the most remarkable dinner
that has been given in Washington for
many years was the one this week by
Representative Mckinley of Illinois,
in honor of the members OF the Repub-
lican Congressional committee 1t
was more elaborate even than the
famous dinner to Speaker Cannon last
spring. One of the features of the
occasion was the setting OF the dining
room which was arranged to resemble
a section of the mall with a view
drought the trees of the Capitol at
one end of the vista and the WASHING
ton monument at the other. The table
was in the shape of the huge topo-
graphical map of the United States
with the rivers. mountain chains,
transcontinental railways ard Other
features all accurately brought out
even to the detail of pine trees
throughout the New England region,
sage brush on the plains, wheat fielc
through the northwest, snow on the
mountain tops and orange groves il
California. 1t was purely STAG
affair, but one of the most expensive
as well as as artistic political dinner.
ever given in Washington. And it NJ
wonder that few members of con
gress are anxious to increase thei
salaries a half IN order to give sucl
elbow outs,' not for the benefit O
their constituents and the people gen
orally, but to make spread for thei
own political advancement.

The disposition to hamper the rail-
road by extraordinary and unfriendly
legislation that tends to confsication
of property seems to be the stock IN
trade of certain legislators who are
endeavoring to make themselves solid
with the socialistic classes-if not the
anarchist who insist on a division
of property that they may have more
to waste in riotous living and then
ask for another division. First the
roads are taxed out of proportion to
their value as compared with other
kinds of representations of dollars
upon which no taxes are paid either
town, city, county nor state. Then
an effort is being made to tax the
roads to the extent of the fictitious
value resulting from issuance of
watered stocks, which should be pre-
vented by law and thus obvlate the
conditions now existing. At the
present time. the total municipal in
debtedness in this country and the ma
tional debt amounts to billions of dol
lars upon which the people are paying
interest and no taxes are paid on gov
eminent bonds and it is presumable
that no taxes are paid on the municip-
al bonds In face of these facts, de-
magogues are endeavorlng to cripple
the railroad, and after making it
impossible for them to serve the pub
lie, enact law compelling the rail-
roads to move freight when they lack
the eguipage to do SC and cannot afford
to do so at the rates fixed by the state
railway commission and the inter-s state
commission, andoperate train service
at loss. While 1t is right to force
the railroads to make fair rate, it is
all wrong to insist on The impossible
and confscate property by making it
valualess and interfering with pros
perity of the country by crippling the
railroads. 1t is certainly time that
the people awoke to conditions promis-
ed by the foolishness of present efforts.

ANENT A SHORT SESSION.

ANENI A SHORI SESSSION.
Already we are hearing the old slo-
gan OIL a short session of the legisla-
ture for 1907. While it will be gen
orally conceded that if no session was
held it would be better for the people
of the state as the enacting of new
laws at each biennial session has be-
come N intorable nuisance, and the
next best thing would be brief session,
the briefer the better. But it will be
repetition of previous sessions, for
the fellows who have special legisla-
ton to secure either for themselves
or their clients Will prolong the ses-
sion SO that in the last moments, when
a majority CT the members are anxious
to return to their homes to look after
the "spring work. and and fix up
the slate for the township offices, the
questionable measures will be run
through as slick as grease and the
honest members will not know where
they are at. - And then, there are
few members who generally feel their
Importance, if nobody else does, and
wish to swell around the state capital
as long as possible and be recognized
as members of the legislature, even
if they have no influence in shaping
legislation.

The President is usually right in his

The President is usually right IN his
contentious and his backbone is worth
a million dollars an inch. He was
certainly justified in ordering a bat
talon of the 25th regulars dishonorably
discharged from the service of the
government for rIotous conduct at
Brownsville, Texas, one night during
the past summer and his message &C
companied by proof OF the fact that
must have opened the eyes of certain
senators who were disposed TO make
political capital out of the incident.
Occasionally, however, he makes a
mistake, but he is honest and invaria-
bly, squares himself. The one mistake
that has attracted attention is his
disposition to override the state laws
and centralize the government, which
is looked upon with extreme disfavor
by those who believe that the CEN
Trailing of the government is step
toward monarchy and departure from
the ideas of the founders of the repub-
lie. The general government has no
right to interfere with the domestic
affairs of state except within the
limta tions of the constitution and
would be a dangerous procedure.
Little by little the states might be
deprived of constitutional rights until
they become simply provinces to be
ruled from Washing ton, which might
put the power in the hands of an am
bilious man with the support of con-
gress and the army to deprive the
people of the rights now enjoyed under
the present conditions in the several
states IN the federal compact. The
best and safest way is to let the state
run their own domestic affairs within
the constitutional limits.
