towns, We're opposed to the law, and
that if its purpose was to require
and maintain sanitary conditions it
would be better to give this work to
the state or local boards of health.
Senator Hudnall opposed the repeal.
Doctors who are assuming the title
of m. d." are resisting the enact
ment of the proposed law to prevent
non-graduates of recognized medical
colleges from practicing their profess
sion. Petitions are coming in daily
to the legislature protesting against
practice of medicine. The state board
of health and the state board of medi.
cal examiners are in favor of the en-
actment OF such law, so that the
general laws against the practice of
medicine by unfit persons may be the
more effectively enforced A petition
OF protest was received in the senate
signed by q citizens of Milwaukee.
Madison, March 22.-The red flag
was waved before some of the mem
bers of the assembly when the Ban
croft resolution relating to entrance
requirements to the university came
up for consideration. The resolution
was introduced almost month ago,
and provides for the establishment of
a purely English course, and abolish
ing the language requirements for en-
trance. The faculty recently took
action in line with the resolution, and
when the latter came up, it was OPP
posed by some members on the
grounds that what the resolution
sought to accomplish had already
been done and there was not further
purpose to be gained by adopting the
resolution. A lively debate ensued,
in which the question of moment
seemed to be, Who shall have the
credit for inspiring the action taken
by the faculty and regents in letting
down the bars. Bancroft, Elver,
lie Roy and Hoethe maintained that
the action of the faculty came only
when they heard the runbling in the
state capitol, while others insisted
that the regents were guided by u
desire to satisfy the demand of the
public as voiced in the teachers
convention in Milwaukee a few
months ago. Assemblymen Cleary,
McGregor. and Ledvina favored re-
reference of the resolution to the
committee on education, but the reso
luton was adopted. The Brockhausen
resolution relating to the exclusion
of Monaghan labor called forth a
burst of eloquence on the part of the
social democrats from Milwaukee.
Mr.. Brockhausen spoke for twenty
minutes on the subject of exclusion
and its effect on labor conditions.
Palmer, the colored assemblyman
from Milwaukee, moved to indefinitely
postpone the resolution, because 1t
was founded on prejudice and was
calculated to engender more animos-
ity and more strained relations than
now exist between this country and
Japan The house sided with him
overwhelmingly.
Another social democratic resolu-
ton, OF which Mr.. Weber of Milwau-
kee is the author and which provides
for gradual requirement Of railroads
by the United States government
through its receivers, was accorded
but slightly more courteous treatment
but was subjected to no less effective
killing by being rereferred TO the com
mittee on transportation. Mr.. Esta-
brook offered resolution which calls
upon the committee on transportation
to investigate the employment of
minors as night operators.
The bill to create the Office Of state
fire marshal aroused antagonism
and was laid over. The bill TO pay
salaries to treasurers and directors
of school districts was advanced af-
ter opposition while the Berner bill
for IL more inspectors for the labor
bureau took the same course. The
Bancroft bill appropriatiDg $4,000
for the maintenance OF the national
guard was passed.
The senate received a memorial
from Senator Whitehead relating to
Horatio N. Davis, formerly of Beloit,
who died last month at Buffalo N.
Y. The resolution sets forth That
Mr.. Davis represented Rock county,
then the seventeenth senatorial Jis
trict, in 1S7e-1ol6; that he came to
Wisconsin in 1888, lived at waukesha
and later for many years at Beloit,
was mayor Of Beloit three times,
