great excitement in the high school
gymnasium. Three basket ball games
were played during the evening with
the following results:
Team Score Team Score
High school seconds. IA Y. C. A. seconds. s

All the games were very interesting
but the game between the high school
first team and Amigo took the cake.
The Amigo boys were much taller than
our boys and the audience expected
them to run up a high score. But not
so; the boys played an excellent game
and made the Amigo team work for
what scores it got Wausaus team
started out with the lead but the other
team soon caught up and passed them
and from then on the game was well
contested. In the first half the Wausau
team made Is points and Amigo %

for Wausau; Andrews made out of II

THE SELMA CONNECTION CASE

1t took the federal supreme court
a long time to decide that Selma con-
nection case brought by the corpora
ton commission against the Atlantic
Coast Line. The railroad had put the
train on so long ago that nearly every
body had forgotten that there was a
suit pending which involved the right
Of the corporation commission to make
the order. Had the decision been in
favor of the railroad We doubt if it
would have discontinued the train.
The company was fighting more for a
principle, claiming that such order
was not within the power of the state
commission. The question is now f.
nally settled in favor of the commits
sion, and we suppose that in future
it will pay more attention to compell-
ing railroads to give the public con-
venient schedules for making connec-
tons over different lines.
The next big railroad case in this
state will, most probably, be a on
test over the validity of the freight
and passenger rates bills passed by
the last legislature. The railroads will
be pretty apt to test these two statutes
when the time comes for them to 20
into effect. We do not believe the peo-
pie would be the Least concerned in
the passenger rate cas- There was no
public demand for the reduction of
fares. What the people want is better
facilities for transportation and
quick delivery of freight, together
with prevention of discrimina-
ton in favor of some points against
others. There is difference of opin-
ion as to whether the freight rate bill
will accomplish anything as to the
latter. Many persons competent to
judge say that it will not do so:
in fact, that if strictly enforced it
will make conditions at some points
worse than they are now.

tice followed by the courts in this state
is farcical, but we do not suppose
that under the law the judges would
have the right to confiscate the prop
erty of a defendant convicted Of car
rving a concealed WEAPON. That would
be infiicting punishment not imposed
by any law of the state. There should
be a law, though, for the confscation
of all deadly weapons found on the
persons of parties arrested who were
carrying them in violation of the law,
and such weapons should not be put
back into the hands OF the class of
citizens from whom they are taken,
as is done in the state Of New York.
The practice in that state is more
absurd than the one N ours, for here
the return of the weapon cannot be
refused, but in that state they are
confiscated by lawful authority and
there is no excuse for putting them
back into the hands Of the people
from whom they had been taken. All
weapons so seized should be destroy
ed. The judges might bring about COL
fiscation Of the weapon by offering
to reduce the sentence imposed on
condition that the defendant would re-
all claim to the weapon, and
then order tits destruction. If our
judges would adopt this plan they
put a good many deadly weap-
Ons in the hands of the criminal class
out of use in short order.

presidents. 1t looks like the opposition
TO MIR. Roosevelt is increasing RAPIDLY.
With such forces as are opposing him
it does not seem that it would be pos
s1ble to stampede the convention to
him. With the many, elements in his
party opposing him his friends will
hardly be willing for him to run the
risk of a defeat at the polls. even If
he could secure the nomination. Az
matters now stand it looks as if Mr..
Roosevelt could have greater success in
securing the nomination for some man
Of his choice than IN getting it for
himself. If the leading republican
newspapers take up the cry of mo
third term" Mr.. Roosevelt will stand a
poor chance of getting the nomination.
