The action of the senate in pass
ing this legislation, points out the
fact that the efforts of those mag
azino writer's who for months have
endeavored by every possible means
to defame prominent members of
that body, are completely nullifed.
The senate has gone at it's work,
calmly and deliberately and has at
tempted to formulate law that
would prove it's value to the people
OF the country. It is considered one
of the most radical enactments in
the way of remedial legislation
reaching great problem that has
ever engrossed the attention of the
senate, in the entire history of the
country.

Mr.. F. Fl. Trego yesterday, in ex-
ploring some of the old drifts, found
four drills, which were left by the
old miners about twenty-five years
ago. On the drills incrusted black
jack in place one-eighth of an inch
in thickness, conclusively showing
deposit of jack on the drills formed
by the water since that time. This
fact settles an important point, that
deposition of jack is continuing all
the time; that the mineral bearing
waters are still in action and the
jack is growing, as it were, con-
tinually in this field-Platteville

There are times when past history
is recalled and the records of mem
bers of congress made while in the
legislature of their own states is re-
ferred to. The other day there was
an interesting colloquy between
Congressman Babcock and Con-
gresham Gaines on the floor of the
house, IN which the question of rail
road passes came up. Mr. Babcock
modestly referred to the fact that
as far back as 1887, while serving
in the Wisconsin legislature he had
introduced bill favoring shutting
off the giving of passes. The bill
met defeat, but the speaker then
embraced the occasion to say that
the railways of Wisconsin we're not
issuing passes to any one other than
their own employees and that Wis
consin was the first state in the
union to take this step. The third
district member has uniformly
favored legislation asked by the
railroad employees of the country,
and during the discussion of one of
the co-employee liability bills re-
ferred to the fact that he had been
instrumental in giving Wisconsin a
law during his career in the legis-
laturc which was generally regard
ed at that time as being one of the
most complete laws on the subject
in the land.

WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, D. c., May 15.-The
way in which the claimed over con-
sentative United States Senate has
been dealing with the transporta-
ton question during the past week
brings surprise to the public. In
view of the fact that the senate has
for years been characterized as be-
ing in control of the powerful cor
porations,it is well to note the error
Of the criticism as we'll as its Unjust
ice. When it come to including the
express and sleeping car companies
under the provisions of the proposed
law, it required less time than it
takes to write the news, to pass the
amendment. There was scarcely a
dissenting vote. Other important
propositions have been passed with
equal rapidity and the result of the
work will be railway rate law that
will adequately protect the inter-
state commerce of the country.
~
Through it all, there has been
more or less of an attempt to appeal
to popular prejudice and to stamp
certain senators as being under the
nomination of the corporations. It
is now conceded that the bill as it
came from the house was in many
respects defective, and gravest
doubts were expressed as to its con-
stitutiOnality in the form it was
when it reached the senate. Efforts
were made to interpolate provi-
sion which would in effect raise
questions in the courts and in the
minds of some of the ablest lawyers
to nullify the law. Senator Spooner
took a leading part in framing the
amendments so that the law would
be constitutional, and by agree
ment among the republican sena-
tors, the bill was whipped into shape
after months of debate. While the
law as it will pass. may not be sat
isfactOry to those who seek a most
radical enactment, it expresses the
views Of President Roosevelt and is
GAINED to be most effective meas

The most sensational episode of
the entire rate bill controversy oc-
Cured in the senate Saturday when
Senators Tillman and Bailey charged
President Roosevelt with having
acted in bad faith to the democrats
supporting him in his contention
for an adequate rate law. 1t APP
pears that the president had been
doubtful of securing a sufficient
number of republican members to
insure the passage of the kind of
law he desired, so opened negotia-
tions with the two democratic sena-
tors through ex-senator Chandler
of New Hampshire. There were a
number of conferences and Atty.
Gen. Moody was called in to draft
an amendment covering court re-
view which would be acceptable to
the president. This was all agreed
to, the democratic senators claiming
that the president as we'll as his at
torney general had agreed that the
amendment decided upon should go
into the bill and no other. Then
came the Allison amendment, one
clalmed0tO be much broader in it's
provisions relating to the powers of
the courts to intervene and stay the
action of the commission. 1t was
given out that the president declar-
ed himself satisfied with this and as
a result the democrats assisting him
IN the enactment of a rate law
were left without his support.

Among members of the Wiscon-
sin delegation general regret is ex-
pressed over the announcement
made by Congressman w. E. Brown
of the tenth district that he will not
again be a candidate for re-elec-
ton. He arrived at this determine
ton on account of his increasing bust
ness activities. Brown Brothers at
Rhinelander are among the most
prominent lumber firms of the coun-
try and have been charging their
holdings of timber land until vast
tracts have been added which are
located throughout the west. Ow-
ing to the i'll health of Congressman
Browns brother, and a gradually
growing business connection, the
member from the tenth has decided
to devote his time exclusively to
his private interests. He is one of the
most popular men in the delegation
and also one of the ablest. While
not maker of speeches, no mem
Der has better record for careful
committee work and detailed atten-
ton to his duties. Mr.. Brown has
been considering his retirement
from congress for long time, and
notwithstanding the surety of his
denomination and election, now
clears the field for those who desire

The Hazer Usually a Coward.

The hazer is usually a coward
and the sight of a gun or a knife
makes him skip out. The fool
with the blacking brush is a hard
proposition in all colleges. He
needs killing, but no one wants
to stain their hands in blood.
The hazer as a rule cuts the big
gest swath during his sophomore
year in school, and about the
only time in life be plays the
part of master is the time he takes
advantage of a green fresh man
away from home for the first
time-and lords it over him.

lie the correspondence leading up
to the Intervention in Cuba. The
correspondence took place be-
tween Consul General Steinhardt,
at Havana, and acting Secretary
Bacon, of the State Department.
An important feature developed in
the dispatch was that interven-
ton was asked by the Cuban
government as early as Septem-
Der 8, and that as long ago as
September IA, Palma had deter
mined to resign as President of
the republic, that the vice-prea-
dent and cabinet ministers had
also determined to continue no
longer in Office. 1t is also shown
that Intervention by the United
States has long been planned by
the Palma government and was
communicated to the State De-
partment in a letter by Consul
General Steinhardt at early as

Lock System for the Panama Canal.

The selection of the lock plan
was undoubtedly due to the &C
ceptance of the dominating in
fuence of the Chagres river. 1t
has been general to assume that
the great difficulty of the sea-
level plan lay IN the immense
amount Of elevation it would re-
quire in the cut a. Culebra. Had
this been the only difficulty, it is
probable that the sea-level pro-
ject would have been adopted; but
when it is understood that the
real problem was the holding back
of the entire flood waters of the
Chagres, a flood of $4,000 cubic
feet per second, by a dam at Gam
boa, rising to a level of $40 feet
above the surface Of the canal,
and more than a mile i'll length
at the crest, it will de seen than
the Culeba cut was a secondary
matter. In the sea level plan
the accumulated flood waters of
the Chagres were to have been let
off gradually through sluices into
the canal itself, producing at
times a current as high as four
feet per second. In the lock pro-
iect the waters of the food river
merge into II great lake, with
ample spillways, giving unre-
| stricted navigation for vessels Of
all sizes for one.third of the whole
distance across the isthmus.-

SMITH ON RACE QUESTION.
irresponsible Element Among the Negroes
Should be Supervised.

At the Georgia homecoming
exercises here today Governor
elect Hoke Smith delivered an ad-
dress on tina race question in the
South, in which he said that the
fourteenth amendment to the con-
stitution binders the most intelll-
gent mode of hadling the subject.
"Our mode of national govern
ment," Mr.. Smith said, "has al
ways legislated for the Indians,
placing around them restrictions
entirely different from those ap-
piled to white men. But the 18th
amendment to the constitution
should follow the same plan in
Georgia with reference to the ne
groes. The white men must &C.
cept full responsibility and con-
troll of the situation. This is the
whitn mans country and it is the
white mans burden. The negro
should be encouraged to help.
Kindly but firmly the large ma
jority of negroes must be super
vised and directed by the white
man. The fact should be kept
in mind that a very large number
of negroes are irresponsible and
left in idleness are prone to crime.
We must exhaust all legal means
to save negroes from id~leness."
