to merely live in their unpretentious
way.
1t is the extreme of inconsistency,
to say the least, when all classes of
even common labor, and every other
branche of government service has
been allowed a substantial increase
recently, to deny the letter carrier
his modest and actually needed 20 per
cent raise, when he is the most deserv-
ing Of any government adjunct.
If thirty years on the same salary,
under changing conditions which have
proven the utter inadequacy of the
wage, isn't the best reason in the
world for the 20 per cent raise, then
what under Heaven did the congress-
men base their reason upon for their
generous SO per cent increase?

FUNERAL OF E. W. CRANE
Remains We're Taken to Sparta,
Wis. For Burial.

The death of Edwin w. Crane at
his home on Fourth Ave. S. Saturday
noon while not entirely unexpected,
came as great shock to his many
friends in this city. He has been all
ing ever since Christmas, but it was
not until about ten days ago, that his
disease took serious turn and he was
compelled to take to his bed. Death,
we. are told, resulted from heart
failure.
Mr.. Crane was in his tifties at the
time of his death. He was married
in Sparta, Wis. where he made his
home for many years, in 1884 to Miss
Inez Mcclure, who, together with
his thirteen year Old daughter, Miss
Agnes, survive to mourn his loss.
Mr.. Crane was man of great learn
ing having studied medicine, as well
as being a graduated pharmacist and
dentist. He was charter member of
the Wisconsin State Pharmacists
Association, and also member of
the Wisconsin State Dental aSsocia-
tiOn.
Mr.. Crane came to this city in Sep
TENDER 1905 and has been connected
with the drug department of the
Johnson, Hill and Co.'S department
store ever since. While here he has
made many friends who heartily
sympathise with his wife and daugh-
ter during this their hour of great
bereavement.
The funeral service in charge of the
Masonic lodge, conducted by Rev. K.
Staff, was held at the house Mon
day morning, and the body was then
taken to Sparta for burial. The re-
mains were accompanied by Messrs.
Chas. Kellogg and Thos. Taylor. and
Rev. F. Staff. They were met at New
Lisbon by Frank Crane brother from
South Dakota. The remains were
inferred at Sparta, Tuesday morn
ing.

The Civil Service Commission has
successfully completed the important
work of filling 80 positions in the
State Legislature as a result of recent
competitive examinations.
On January Doth the Attorney
General rendered an opinion to the
effect that the Civil law placed en-
ployes in the legislature in the COM
petitive class. Upon receipt of this
opinion a general competitive ex-
animation to fill As positions, included
| w UIllS dS OIoClCu.
Fifteen days later the Commission
certified for appointment a sufficient
number of names from which to fill
so positions in the State Legislature.
During the fifteen day, advertising
| was sent to 500 newspapers, Is
different sets of examination questions
were prepared, 623 applications were
received, examinations were offered
in IS different places in the state, $40
persons wrote an examination, and OF
these 2S3 passed.
Notwithstanding the fact that much
discussion was precipitated by this
late decision of the Attorney General,
the sentiment in the legislature grew
hourly in favor of the application OF
the Civil Service Law to legislative
positions.
The action of the Commission was
accepted and all appointments have
been made strictly in accordance with
law. The fact that the legislature
accepts the application of the law to
its own appointments will have far
! reaching moral effect for the merit
system. The ability of the Wisconsin
Commission to meet an emergency
promptly and to prepare lists that
have, in the main, been accepted as
satisfactory, under the most adverse
conditions, should do much to
