Spooner Resigns.

Senator Spooner has resigned
from his high position as United
States Senator. His resignation is
to take effect on the first of May
next.
This resignation removes from
public life one of the most energet-
ic and far-seeing statesmen of the
present Congress. A lawyer by
profession and one who has won
laurels in his profession he early
became by force of circumstances a
politician owing to the fact that he
was appointed, when comparatively
a young man as an attorney for a
leading railway company at a time
when it was necessary to properly
manage the political side of the le-
gal questions.
True always and faithful to his
clients he was equally so to the
state when, relinquishing his pro-
fitable employment, he became a
leader in political life. He commenc-
ed his service as Senator in 1884,
served six years and was then sue
ceeded for one term by Senator vi
las but was reelected at the expira-
ton of the term of Villas and has
been an active and progressive
member of Congress from that time.
His wide range of legal know
ledge, his remarkable memory of
events, his careful examination of
matters under discussion early
made him marked man and won
for him the respect and confidence
of those in high authority. He was
trusted advisor of President Nc
Kinley and hardly less so under the
administration of Roosevelt.
His many friends will regret his
retirement and especially SO at a
time when his experience in public
matters is so useful.
Of him President Roosevelt says.
81 cannot sufficiently express my
regret. We lose one of the ablest,
most efficient, most fearless, and
most upright of public servants the
nation has. Four year ago knew
the extreme reluctance with which
Senator Spooner finally consented
to serve in the senate, and year by
year since l have feared he would
resign, as he has finally resigned,
for have known that every year of
his stay in public life has been to
him direct financial loss he could
ill afford. l understand fully the
senator's feeling that he cannot
longer stay in the public service at
such cost, not only to himself, but
to his family, and much though |
regret his resignation, am most
sincerely grateful that he has been
willing to serve so long. He has
been in his life gallant soldier, a
.fained public servant of the high
est standard of ability and faithful
ness, and at all times an American
citizen who did his whole duty"
The Senator expects to reside in
Wisconsin and to resume the prac-
tice of his profession.
The present Legislature must elect
a successor, and all the state will
be looking anxiously to learn what
man will be selected to wear the
toga of so able and distinguished a
gentleman.

of it-nearly 200 years after it was
made-it had never been used. The

some reason were unable to come.
This office has received from ]. D.
Beck, Commits sioner of the Bureau
of Labor and Industrial Statistics,
the twelfth biennial. report of the
Bureau, for which we tender thanks.
The report is a book of nearly 900
pages, filled with descriptive and
statistical data of the highest value.
The first part deals with the geolo-
gy of the state, its rocks, soils and
rivers in general while describ-
ing the different counties and towns
with more specific description of the
several localities. About every city
and village in the state is described
in detail-the number of its inhabi-
tants, its industries and shipping
facilities. The statistical data in
include, besides total population,
the number of families, the number
of males, the number of females,
the number of militia and the num-
Der of ex-soldiers and sailors in ev-
cry township. The report is sup
piled with a good township map Of
the state.

"Between the Devil and the Deep
Sea-"
II the railroads are going to con-
tinue to do their part in the further
development of our country and in
the further progress toward liberty,
happiness and prosperity of all the
people of the earth, 1t is obvious that
they must not be hampered or Grip
pied. This principle applies to their
administration and to their financial
|cfedit. That their administration
may be the most efficient, the freest
play must be given to the operation
of the great elements of ambition,
energy and enterprise; and, that they
may be able to finance their future re-
quirements, their credit must be sus-
tained.
l shall not stop here to consider
the debated and debatable question
as to who is the most powerful in de-
stroying the credits of the railroads
the financier who represents what
the President calls predatory wealth,
or the President himself as represent
ing the wrath of the people. / mere
ly point out that at this moment the
railroads are between the devil aud
the deep sea; and further, that any
thing which cripples the railroads Is
a calamity of the first magnitude
for the nation.
1t is a national misfortune that the
railroads are so generally and sys-
tematically misrepresented in the
public press. Fair discussion, dis
cussion in the spirit of justice and
truth, is almost never seen in the
daily newspaper treatment OF rail-
road matters. whether Il be of acci-
dents, of freight rates, of passenger
rates, or whatever may be the sub
ject under discussion The conse-
quences of this attitude are most
serious. Indeed, | go so far as to
say that the malicious wrecks that
have occurred lately should be
charged to the editorial offices of the
daily newspapers. BY those news
papers the railroads are treated as
outlaws. People of feeble reasoning
powers and OF emotional tempera-
ment are easily led to think that II
is proper to attack an outlaw In any
way that amuses them or gratifies
their hatred or envy.

Railroad officials "Just Like the Resi-
of U.s."


You know and / know that the
great mass OF the owners of the rail-
roads are honest and law-abiding
citizens. You know and know that
the directors and administrative off,
GERS OF the railroads are just like
the rest OF us-no better and no
worse. In intelligence and executive
capacity they rank high, because they
are disciplined In an exacting school,
and they are selected because OF their
capacity TO carry responsibility. In
moral character they are probably
above rather than below the average.
The assumption that they are schem-
ing to cheat their neighbors, that
they are trying to contrive ways 10
annoy their patrons, that they are In
different and incompetent in practical
Operation OF their railroads, would
sound childish II II were not so seri-
Gus and so far-reaching in its eonse-
quences.
or course, we know that wrong
things are done by railroad officers.
We have heard, for instance, a great
deal about rebates; but II We reflect,
we discover that rebates are not new,
simply they have been made Illegal.
We know that they have been used
for years, and even for generations,
as a means of building up communi-
ties and industries along lines OF
railroads. Probably, in the primitive
times many of those railroad mana
gers who granted rebates thought
that they were doing a correct and
Ipublic-spirited thing. Unfortunately
correct notions about these matters
are almost never presented In the
daily press.
II seems to me that II Is a duty
of the officers OF the railroad COM
panies, and those who are closely re-
lated 10 railroads companies, and
who have means OF special informa-
tion, to try to build up correct pub
lie opinion. This some OF us can 40
by talk with our neighbors; some OF
us by occasionally writing for pub
lication here and there; some OF us
by an occasional public speech; some
OF us by direct personal contact
with our senators and representatives
in congress and the members OF our
state legislatures. 1t seems TO me
that this Is an obvious and neglected
duty that all OF US can perform
and, in the aggregate. with good
deal OF profit; and It is a duty not
to the railroads alone, but to the ma
Ition.

in the relations of the railways to
the traders and the manufacturers of
the nation. 1t is not strange that
certain somewhat crude notions
should have been established as to
the correct relations of railroads to
society.
