BRIGHTER
FOR WISCONSIN GREW GREW
Wedding Out Process to Begin
soon-Football Situation
Very Dark.
especial to Tho Times-Dispatch.)


MADISON, April 2s.-The University Of
Wisconsin crew prospects are brighter
than they have been for years.
So far forty varsity candidates have
been kept at work to get In shape, and
they arc In good condition. The weed
Ing out process will begin soon, but the
material is such that1ft Is thought that
(! the men that are given actual work IN
prepa ra ton for!the tercollegate regatta
Z at Poughkeepsie will be among tho pest
TINT Wisconsin has had In many years.
Lea, Captain Burling, Levssee, johnson
and Davis have been on previous crews.
Most OF the candidates for tho varsity
have made their numerals as freshmen,
and five or six have won their embems
as members Of the crew Of the univer-
+ slty * ssiS5 si l55.3558 &
It is figured that So, 900 is needed to take
the men to the eastern regatta, to put
things in shape and to pay all running
expenses until The time of the regatta.
Only a small part OF that Is on hand at
the present time, making 1t necessary to
raise pretty close to the entire amount.
1t Is figured that a considerable sum can
be raised among the students, but the
alumni and the business men OF the
State and immediate neighborhood VIII
be called upon for the bulk Upon the
success Of this effort to get funds de-
ponds the question OF whether. there is
misrepresentation! III athletics by any
department this spring.
Until recently there was q hope that
the track team would be able to continue
| work but that is doubtful. II there was
a coach to take charge OF tho mon and
keep them up to their work 1t might be
possible to go ahead. But 1t would be
another case of begging for money, and
1t is improbable that there would be much
success in that line ut the Same time that
the crew people nre looking for money.
So it looks now rs though this branch
would also go by the boards.
The football situation is dark The fac
ulty men all interpret the action of the
faculty to mean that Michigan and Min
nesota simply have TO agree to calA off
their contracts with Wisconsin for games,
and there will be no football. 1t looks
as though it would be q long time before
any director OF athletics Is named to
tnke care Of things Mt Wisconsin, and by
that time there will be little chance to
get good football games on the Wisconsin
schedule.

 Apparently the same conditions snr- round the railroad-rate bill. The Sen. ate is engaged in perfecting Ihe b.ll that was rushed through the House. There is reason to expect gLat the bill will be more effective. eni there fore more acceptable to the people, than when it passed the House. Is the House to refuse to concur because the Senate has dared to consider in dependently and amend an admin > tration measure?"
 The House having failel TO act in it's deliberative capacity. it is only logical that its necessity as a mouth piece of the administration should be questioned. If bills must be passed by the Senate because they are "ad- nnn:1tratiye measures" there would seem to be no furher need of House .of Representatives. The President and the Senate can do it all.

 Such campaign literature as the above, is silly and ridiculous.
 Aimed at the voters who work in the mines it is a farce.
 It's the same old story of an at- tempt to capture the miners. but of all the political dodges worked for this purpose. the above attempt of the Chairman of the Republican Gen. tral Committee. is the most disgusting and fiimsy.
 For the benefit of the stranger in our midst, who is at present trying to pose as the leader of the Republican party. the Review will volunteer the information that when the politicians start out to capture the solid vote of the miners. by means of yellow cam paign pogrers. the effort will prove a boomerang.
 Some cheap. petty politician is al ways afraid 4 miner won't know how to vote. and he conceives the brilliant idea that ft is his duty to teach him. Ths Republican chairman can be bet ter employed for in the end the min CTS will vo.e as they d--m please.
 T. is true that democratic coun- c5l has not built sidewalks all the way to the head of Tombstone Canyon end down the Canyon to Lowell. The property owners abutting on these roadways CAN have sidewalks when ever they desire 10 foot the bills, and Q petition to Ssa council saying they were ready to pay the cost of improve nc&t 'H front or their property. would have built sidewalks any time in the past, end VII 13 So eDy time in the fut--n.
 A sidewalk vD Tombstone Canyon could probably 0e built al a great ex- pensc by blasting into the side of the mountain. building stone abutments. with Q few iron bridges here and there. and if the property owners along the riEht-of-way want 10 pay fer rEis expense. that's their privilege. n t-e past. petitions for a sidewalk from these people have been conspic- uouc by their absence.
 i; takes a wild imagination 10 fig ure out the exact death rate in con- nection with the lack of sidewalks up Tombstone Canyon. but the Repub- lican chairman got the correct figures the first time. It's ten per cent.
 We have heard that the lack of a sewer system in Bisbec was cause of disease. but we don't believe that Dr. Caven would endorse the statement in the yellow Republican campaign post CT that the death rate in Bisbee had been increased ten per cent by a lack of siderralks.

 The House leaders propose to util-
 ;ae the Statehood bill as the bone of
 contention between the House and Senate. with :he c5iect of making a stout pro. est aS2i.:sl what tloy -egard as the c9-IeEH cu3ua atiuu6e of .he Senate. TEe r1!i.oad-rate hiEi passed

The third administration measure. the Statehood bill. has Oeen amDutated and returned to the House win the implied mes sage -hat .ha House must accept iC CT set nothing. Therefore. the time has arrived, accor.ing to Ia Ing members Of tre HcEse, when that body rgst teach the Senate that il cannot rathiessiy traGIDle upcn admin istratioa measures passed almost Unanimously b. she popular branch of Congress.
 If the House had actualIr performed it's constitutional func5ions by o-:ginat- ing, carefully considering, and iade- Rendentiy passing bills in response to genu:.i, popular denand. it would have just grounds of complaint against the Senate if that body should re- turn them in shrcds and patches, in an apparently deliberate attempt to administer . rebuff to the Executive. But I. is likely to be unfortunate Tor the prestige of the House if 1t re- fuses to concur in the Senate's sn.er.G. ments to tha Statehood bill. lh1t :: ;Il was never considered in the House.

When the House passed the bill under the direction of com mfttee of three it could not know whether the measure was approved or by the people.
