BILL TO ABOLISH UNIVERSITY
CHARGES GIVEN HEARING.
is OPPOSED BY VAN HISE
President Does Not Discuss Merits
of Measure But Points to Material
Defects-ReVenue From Students
Devoted to Payment of incidental
Expenses.
Madison, April II.


The senate and assembly commit
tee on education, sitting jointly in
the senate chamber yesterday, heard
arguments on the bill to abolish so
called incidental fees collected from
students.
Senator Burns argued in favor OF
the bill, declaring that it was the con-
temptation of the state to establish
a great free school for the education
of the young people of the common
wealth and that it was not right to
exact of the students fees which ag-
gregated $65,000 or more annually
President Van Hise called attention
to the fact that the bill as it stands
would make it impossible to collect
for dOrmitory rentals in ChadbOurne
hall or for registration in the summer
session and Senator Burns readily
admitted that the friends of the bill
had no such intention and he agreed
to an amendment to fix the measure
in that respect. President Van Hise
did not touch upon the merits of the
bill saying that it involved ques-
ion of legislative policy which he de
sired to leave entirely to the judg
ment of the Legislature. He stated,
however, that the revenue derived
from incidental fees was devoted to
the payment of part of such Incl
dental expenses, separate and dis
tinct from tuition, as heating, light
ing and Janitor service of buildings;
but that each year many thousands
of dollars are taken from the gen
eraI funds of the university to make
UP that part of incidental expenses
WHICH the incident fees are made
quate to cover Here he made re
ference to the decision of the SUI
preme court in a test case of these
fees, i'll with the court held that the
collection of such fees did not con
stitute a charge for tuition. While
he avoided making any suggestion
as to the merits of the principle in
vOlved, desiring to leave that to the
legislature absolutely, he clearly IN
timated his personal hope that the
bill do not pass for he SAIL that l..
would be necessary in the event of
passage to make an additional APP
preparation of $4,000 so that he
would not be compelled to abandon
his plan of so outstanding the funds
of the university and leaving a mar
gin each year as to wipe out the so
called university deficit and enable
the regents to administer the uni
versity for an entire year from the
time the funds become available in
February without exercising the
statute-g given right to draw temper
arily upon the general fund of the
state. The legislative investigating
committee had recommended an ap-
preparation of $4,000 to wipe out
this so-caIled deficit. President Van
Hise, however, desires to be given
an opportunity to clear UP this stu
alton without the appropriation re-
commended by he legislative invest1-
eating committee No action was
taken on the bill yesterday.

Madison, April II.

Madison, April Il.
Bill No 55S A, known as the county
option bill, introduced by Assembly
man L. N. Clausen was before the
committee on state affairs yesterday
and for more than three hours was
the subject of discussion by its advo-
Gates and opponents.
Attorney j. B. Smith spoke for the
measure, declaring that the bill was
one of the most important before the
legislature and that its passage is de-
manded by the people generally
throughout the state without regard
to party affiliations or religious faith.
He characterized the measure as one
tending to a larger democracy in that
it extends the right of local option
from the limits now prescribed by
law to the larger unit, the county;
that the rights of the people should
be held supreme; that inasmuch as
the bill could only affect those com
munities wherein there is or may be
majority of the electors who favor
the exclusion of the saloon it would
in no wise ahect those counties
where the sentiment is favorable to
their retention. 1t was urged thar
under the present arrangement, The
will Of any village which votes for a
dry town is circumvented by Ii
censes being granted in the town and
in the county for the establishment OF
saloons in close proximity IN this
way the will of the people is practi
cally rendered void.
Other advocates of the measure
were T. w. hare of Milwaukee, Mr..
Larson of Waupaca, Mrs. NJ. A. E.
Smith and Rev. H. A. Miner of Madi-
son and Assemblyman d, F. Mains OF
Vernon county.
Mr. hare contended that the sys-
TEN of town, city and village option,
where licenses are granted forces
upon the taxpayers of the entire
county the charges for the expenses
arising out of the evils which always
follow the curse of alcohol poor
houses, asylums, and iails.

that the county option measure would
take The question outside the realm

place it in the political field to be
buffetted and abused; that it would
eventually lead to prohibition, con
dition that is not now contended for.
threat that if the measure is pressed
to passage disaster would follow.
transportation Questions Discussed.
The committee on transportation
considered two bills one involving
the appointment of a superintendent
of street railways in cities of the
first class. City Attorney J. T. Kelly
of Milwaukee presented arguments in
favor of the proposition. He pointed
out that many of the small complaints
which caused considerable trouble in
Milwaukee quite recently might have
been avoided if an officer like street
railway superintendent had been at
hand. The informal disposition of
trivial matters in itself rendered jus
tifable and expedient the creation
of the office.
Attorney Rosencrans of Milwaukee
appeared in behalf of the Milwaukee
Electric Railway Light Co., and
objected. not to the principle of the
bill. but to some matters of detail.
The committee will probably recon
mend the bill which provides that no
company may put in poles or brack
cts without the consent Of the prop
erty owner, and all wires must be re-
moved on. five days notice.
