Complaints sasted on Facts.


A thorough investigation made of
the muster roll of the Wisconsin Vet
Grams home at Waupaca, upon which
the state of Wisconsin issues month
ly pay roll, has proceeded sufficiently
to show that the specific allegations
contained in the complaint filed with
Governor Davidson are based upon
facts. During January a report was
made by the officers of the home in
which a refund to the state OF 1898,
covering certain errors in the pay roll,
was authorized In addition to this
it is known that there is at least one
other case where an error has been
found in the accounts between the
home and the federal government,
which has also been corrected.
Capt. Smith, who is in the city
massing his testimony to present to
Gov. Davidson, asserted that every
one of the charges he made covering
the muster rolls and the drawing of
pay from the state by inmates who
tanned by the examination of the
vouchers in the Office of the secretary
of state. These accounts were looked
over. In the meantime, Capt. Smith
is securing numberless affidavits from
former inmates covering, as he as
serts, similar cases. The fact that
refund authorization was made by the
home officials, to cover, as is stated,
the case of Capt Smith and his wife,
is commented upon as indicating what
by some is considered lax business
methods.
In this connection it can be stated
that it is the practice of the officials
in charge of the home to withhold
from the pensions received by the in
mates the sum Of four dollars quar-
terly as a clothing fund and to rebate
to those who fail to use the full
amount whatever sum remains. This
practice has led to no end of protest
from some of the pensioners, and as
near as can be ascertained, is the
basis for much of the recurring trou-
BILE at the institution. The subject
has repeatedly found it's way into the
press of the state and has been
threshed over in the various investi-
cations of the home management
The officials contend that it is but
fair and just that the inmates should
contribute toward their own mainte-
nance, and assert that if this was not
withheld the cost would fall upon the
taxpayers of the state.
The charges made by Capt. Smith
this time take on a new phase in that
they cover a new subject which con-
Germs the management of the home
1t is believed that the officials will be
called upon to explain the charges
made and to account for what now
methods.

ISPOONER DOFFS TOGA
WISCONSIN STATESMAN RESIGNS
FROM THE SENATE.
QUITS PUBLIC LIFE MAY i
Cannot Afford Longer to Serve Public
Action Causes Surprise
in His State and in
Washington.

Washington.-Senato Spooner has
written letter to Gov. Davidson
Of Wisconsin rendering his resignation
as senator of the United States to
take effect May / next
The letter was dated Saturday, but
the fact that such a letter had been
written or that Mr.. Spooner contem-
plated resigning did not become
known in the senate until late Sunday,
when it created great surprise and
the Wisconsin senator at once found
himself the subject of many anxious
inquiries. To all he replied that his
mind was fully made up. He had
found, he said, that to continue in his
present position would require sac
justify himself in making.
In reply to questions he said he
would resume the practice of the law,
but declined to say whether he would
be located in Wisconsin. He did say,
however, that he would continue to
be a citizen of that state as long as
he lives.
milwaukee, - Inc announcement
from Washington that United States
Senator John c. Spooner of Wiscon-
sin had sent his resignation to Gov.
Davidson came as surprise through
out Wisconsin.
Gov. Davidson, when communicated
with over the long distance telephone
Sunday afternoon, said he had not
yet received the resignation and could
hardly believe it to be true AS to
Senator Spooner's successor, Gov.
Davidson said that it would be left to
the present legislature to elect sue
cessor to fill the unexpired term. Gov.
Davidson would not talk for publica-
tion at this time as to Senator Spoon
er's successor further than to say he
presumed that some of the Wisconsin
congressman, naming Cooper and
Esch, who were candidates for the
senatorship at the time Senator La
Toilette was elected to succeed Sena-
tor Quarles, would again enter the
field.

speciality of getting young girls to
allow him to take their. pictures.

is the best governed, most enlight-
ened, most moral, and happiest spot
in American civilization. 1t is a good
safe place. Not too swift, nor yet too
slow In touch with the current OF
progress, but not racing with greed
The place from which come nearly all
the great business men, lawyers,
scholars, preachers, physicians. The
place where men are neighborly and
helpful.
This town, my farmer friend, is
yours. But the city belongs to the
mail order houses and the devil. With
it's corrupt government, it's overflow
of population, and it's vice, the great
city is the menace of our morals and
our liberties.
The city like the dragon swallows
the vast throngs of country boys and
girls that flock into it, and by and by
when health, and virtue and hope are
gone, spews them out to die in want
or wander as derelicts over the face
of the earth
And don't you see, my friend, that
country town, you destroy the chance
of success there, and the boys and
girls will follow where you have sent
the money?
This town of yours was founded on
faith, on the faith in the customs Of
men for hundreds of years to trade at
the nearest town. These merchants
and carpenters, masons and editors
are your neighbors. They have grown
up amongst you or amongst others
like you.
They have put their all in a little
business, money, time and hope.
Around the corner there is little cot
tage, and the wife and the baby-it
may be your grandbaby-wait;; and
there is smile of happiness when
business is good" but the troubled
look comes when business is poor.
They are struggling to live, and pay
for the little home, and by and by ed
ucate the children. They are your
neighbors and friends, not your enc
mics. They work hard-you scarcely
realize how hard-and are not living
high. They have pinned their faith
to the town-your town.
Their success or failure is in your
hands. For your trade they will give
you good returns, and all will prosper
together. If you withdraw your trade,
failure must follow. Some poor strug-
gler must go down facing bankruptcy.
The light must go out of some Wom-
ans eye, ard hardship be laid up for
the child
Even if you could save little by
sending your patronage to the city, do
you not think it the fair thing, the just
thing, the right thing. to trade at the
little home town with those you know,
those whose prosperity and happiness
are in your hands?
For it is written, "Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as myself"

Complain of Too Much Haste.

The bill providing for two additional
circuit judges for Milwaukee county,
which was passed by the senate under
suspension of the rules, was received
by the assembly and referred to the
committee on judiciary. The bill was
rushed through the upper house SO
fast that some of the Milwaukee mem
bers in the assembly claim that they
have not yet had time to examine it
thoroughly, and one of them said that
he would have to be convinced that
there was proper demand for its
enactment before he would vote for
it.

A preacher who was a crank on
doctrine wearied his congregation by
constantly harping on baptism. A
brother that longed for rest handed
him a text he thought safe, THE way
of the transgressor is hard
Friends said the preacher, there
are three things suggested by this
scripture: First, the transgressor.
Second, his conversion. Third, his
baptism. We will pass over the first
two and come at once to the third"
Many reasons why people should
trade at home rather than send their
money away have been given, but sup
pose we pass them all by and come at
once to the one vital reason:
1t is the right thing to do.
For after all the fundamental ques-
ton in every transaction is whether
1t Is right or wrong. Not will / save
money, but is it just? Not is it more
convenient, but is it fair? Not
whether is it good business, but
whether it is good morals?
For you and I know, and all the
world is coming to know, that not
one dollar is ever saved or made by
unfair means that does not curse the
possessor. And man may be as dis
honest in saving money as in getting
it.
1t is right to spend our money with
the home town and wrong to send it
away because we are under obliga-
lions to the home town, but not to
the mail order house.
Financial Obligations.
In the first place the country is un-
der financial obligations to the town.
OF course the town is also indebted
to the country, but the town cannot
help but pay its debt, its very exist
ence does that. Hence we are merely
discussing the country side of the OBJ
legation.

Material for New Capitol.

Wisconsin's new capitol is to be Of
white marble or granite, and it's cost
is to be about $6,00O,O0O These two
things were decided at conferences of
the capitol commission and members
of the legislature. The plan is to
leave the choice of marble or granite
to the capitol commission, the selec-
ton to depend on the character and
cost of the material. If marble is used
it will be the famous white Cherokee
marble of Georgia; if granite, it will
be the equally famous white Bethel
