Regents of the University of Wis
consin from 1884 to 1889; Circuit

now candidates for reelection to the

His nomination papers were sign

fifty second commencement of the

1905, are as follows:
As justice of the highest Judi
Cial tribunal of the state, you have
done great work in bringing to-
gether and harmonizing the vary
ing decisions of the courts and es-
pecially in reducing to definite form
and expression from multitudinous
decisions, the fundamental rules of
Law, embodying the principles of
justice. Your mind has grasped the
great equitable principles that are
the basis of our reformed code of
legal procedure. Your decisions
have shown a true philosophical
conception of the spirit of the code.
You have administered that code
with its true intent, to secure speedy
justice to all, even if this involved
the over riding of technicalities
which have encountered the adj
ministratiOn of Justice under the
system of the common law. In re-
'o9gnition of the high character of
your service to the state as jurist,
pursuant to the recommendation of
the faculty and by the authority of
of the regents, l confer upon you

Easter is the festival of hope and
gladness, the day in which both
man and nature celebrate the
triumph of life over death; when
the earth's awakening from winters
sleep seems a promise and presage
of mans arising from the sleep of
the grave to a glorious and i'm
mortal life. ''As in Adam all shall
die, so in Christ all shall be made
alive, is the glad canticle that for
nineteen centuries has sounded
down the ages, assuring the hearts
of all true believers that this brief
earthly so5ourn is but the prelude
to higher and enduring existence.
With pompous ritual and elabO-
rate ceremonial, with costly floral
offerings, with jubilant music,
waving of banners and imposing
professionals, this festival is cele-
brated in historic cathedral and
stately city churches, but just as ac-
ceptable to Him whose resurrection
Is this day cOmmemOrated as the
central truth of Christianity is the
simplest service in His honor. In
the Greek church, which of all
others makes the most account Of
this day, the regular Easter morn
ing salutation, both to friend and
stranger, is 'Christ is risen" ami
each gives answer, He is risen in
deed!"
The name Easter is derived from
that Of the Anglo-Saxon goddess of
spring, to whom was dedicated a
joyous though pagan festival. 1t
was in the early Christian church a
revival of the ancient Jewish feast
of the Passover, ennobled by the
idea of Christ as the Paschal lamb.
The present Easter reckoning was
fixed in the Eighth century at
Alexandria, the great astronomical
city, and the same day is observed
in all Christian lands excepting
Greece ard Russia, which still ad-
here to the old style calendar. So
all over Christendom today, except
ing in these two lands, this ueen Of
Sundays will be kept N the old
time spirit, with ceremonials diverse
as the people who honor it, but by
all let it be hoped, with thankful
ness and joy.

The latest news in relation to the
senatorial contest is no news. In
other words, there has been no
change IN the general situation dur
ing the last week, and the members
go to their homes for the Easter
recess with much the same align
ment as marked the inception of
the contest As has been true from
the beginning the LenroOt men
make the largest claims, and there
is little question but that the defeat
ed candidate for governor will lead
on the first ballot. But among those
who will vote for Lenroot on the
first ballot are many members who
have come to the conclusion that
the elevation Of the Superior to the
senator ship under the circumst-
ances would be fatal mistake =
they agree with Senator LaFoilette
to that extent. Some of these mem
bers have decided to support Steph-
ensOn, others are for Cooper, sever
al are inclined toward Esch, and a
number are openly for Hatten. But
it is toward Hatten that there has
been general drift. His has been
a growing candidacy, based largely
on the increasing sentiment among
the members that his record, his
attainment, and his personality, are
such that his election would not
alone meet with approval in the
state but also throughout the coun-
try. This is a legislature that does
its own thinking and this has been
working to the advantage of the
quiet man from New London. His
candidacy gains ground every day,
and it never goes back. While the
Easter recess will give the members
a chance to mingle with their con-
stituents there is little likelihood
that there will be any material
change in the situation. The Gus
tomary tricks of the politicians will
neither fool nor intimidate the
members of this legislature.

The great moral awakening in
this country is here to stay. It had
its inception in a period of great
national prosperity, when, under
ordinary circumstances, the con-
science is likely to slumber under
the soothing influence OF af1uence;
so its permanency seems assured,
and our future is promising. The
American people have the intel
igenca and disposition to correct
existing evils without gong to ex-
tremes in the matter of creating
disturbing and uncertain innova-
tons and revolutions. Respect for
law, order and individual rights is
universal. Under the grim out
ward expression Of the hurried COM
mercial spirit is well-nigh gen
eral disposition to be kind, neigh
borly generous and patriotic in the
right sense. Those who have per-
mitted avarice to entice them away
from these Christian impulses shall
be whipped back into line by due
process of law, applied by now
thoroughly aroused people.

Since 1850 the birth rate of white
people in this country has fallen off
one-fourth. For the most part It
is matter of willful restriction ON
the part of the middle and lower
classes, who secure more comfort
and feel that they are not hampered
by children IN their struggle for adj
vancement and wealth. If this
race suicide continues, it is only a
question of time as to when tbe
black, brown and yellow peoples
will dominate the earth. Some
students of this question suggest
that it will be necessary to encour-
age the race patriotism of white
women by giving pensions for
families of three or more children.

FAVORGRAIN INSPECTION
Mfr. Schmidt's Bill Meets Approval in
Both Houses.

At a meeting of the house committee
on state affairs. of which H. W. Grasse,
of Rush, is chairman, which was held
Wednesday afternoon, it was decided to
report favorabiy the Schmidt grain in
spection bill.
The Schmidt bill was introduced by
G. w. Schmidt of Geary county and is
the one favored by ]. w. Radford, the
state grain inspector. The bill provides
for a compulsory inspection of grain,
and it is the bill which was fought by
the Kansas City board of trade lobby
lists.
On no bill before the present Iegfsla-
ture has a more savage fight been made
than on the Schmidt bill. A strong
lobby of Kansas City grain buyers has
been in constant attendance on the ses-
sion, and several stormy meetings of
the joint house and senate committee
on state affairs have been held to con-
slider the question.
The bill for inspection introduced by
Creech of Dickinson was favored by the
Kansas City grain buyers because it
did not compel weights by a state
grain inspector.
place the old grain inspection law which
was recently declared unconstitutional
by the federal courts.
Favorable action was also taken yes
terday by the senate committee on ag-
riculture of which Senator Wilkerson
is chairman on the bill introduced by
Senator Getty, which is Identical with
the Schmidt BILL
