BILL SHOULD PASS.

A bill eminating from the Travel
ers' Protective association has been
introduced in congress which might
ppropriately become bill to decrease
the danger of railroad travel. The
proposed law is one that should have
been enacted long ago, and cannot be
attributed to a spirit Of hostility to
the railroads, for it is proposed by men
VINO spend most of their Iiv es upon
railroads and need and deserve the
protection asked for in the bill-a
regulation that shall inhance public
safety. The necessity of such law
will be realized by reading a state
ment Of the casualties and injuries
to passengers and employees during
the past FIVE year,:
In 1903 there were 1854 killed, and
45, 787 injured; in 1904, B, 1877 killed,
and 81, 343 injured lin 1905, 3, 1893 killed,
and 55, 430 injured; in 1906, 4,235
killed, and sc, TOT injured; in 1907 the
total jumped to 5000 killed, and Il, :
00l injured, an army of men taken in

Ringing Report Wrong.

A Madison PAPER has started d
spring "fsh story" about the great
Barnum show, the property of Ring
ling Bros, saying that it will cut out
the sldeshows. The article has much
to say about the freaks of the side
show, also that they have not proved
profitable, etc. This afternoon The
Republic asked G. E. Ringing re-
garding the. eliminating of sideshows
and he said there is nothing In the
story and that the Barnum, as well
as the Ringing show, will have all
the attractions in the sideshow as
during the past, besides many i'm
provenents. They have always PAID
well and will probably be profitable
as long as the show business exists.

1t is stated that Congress will take
action to permit the re-enlistment of
the negro soldiers who were discharged
in body for the shooting at Browns
VILE, as far as no proof of guilt ex-
lists, and provided that each soldier
re-enlisting is willing to swear that
ne had no part in the outbreak. The
punishment OF the innocent In order
to reach the guilty is proceeding
that Congress is not likely to put in

POINTED PARAGRAPHS,

A Philadelphia has cured himself
uf a bad case of nerves by saving
wood. A number of persons now IN
the lime light of publicity might
help IN the cure of their suffering
brethren if they also could bring
themselves to the point where they
would say nothing but saw wood.
A son OF Sir Hiram Maxim, the
inventor Of the machine gun, has
been granted patent for a "silent
firearm. The noise of the discharge
is muffied by mechanism that lnsures
gradual instead of a sudden escape
of the gas liberated by the explosion

Sentence Sermons.

A holy tone does not make the
heavenly tune.
Straining after applause is poor
training for it.
Cowardice often walks under the
name of conscience.
A nation dies as soon as it Ceases
to get new ideals.
There is no salvation so long as
there is dissatisfaction.
It's an empty life that thinks only
of the full pay envelope.
There never can be any unity with
out sympathy and charity.
It's poor way to bring men to
heaven by shaking them over hell.

MACHEN NIGHT AUS.

We have several candidates for Su-
preme Judge. There is Bashford,
Barnes and Ruger. Bashford Is the
political ailay and advisor of Cover
nor Davidson and we do not know who
wrote out his appointment on the
bench, himself or the governor. There
is Irish John Barnes, he was on the
Railway Commission and played the
kid and resigned because he could not
boss the legislature and state officers.
Then there is Ruger we do not know
a thing about him but for all that he
may be all right. Old Bashford may
be all right and as law partner of the
sanctimonious and peerless leader OF
democracy in Wisconsin John Awkward,
he may be all right, let US say so any
way democrats. And then let Us raj
ly around John Barnes and say he is a
democrat, and he is alright, and Ru-
ger, we'll, let US Yankees say he is all
right, but for heavens sake let us not
look upon the office of Judge as a
"more friends than you have' but
as goud lawyers, that may be just as
biased as an ordinary juror and not
half as honest. -Reeseville Review

Will make no mistake If you vote
for either of them and after yor

BE JUST AND FAIR.

Sincerity and honesty are two OF
the grandest traits of character that
a man can possess. Such man Is
free from selfishness and looks fairly
and Justly upon all sides of every
question. His Judgments unbiased and
he can always give an unprecedented
opinion upon all matters of polltl-
cal, moral. social or religious nature.
The writer is lead to murallze thusly
by picking up a paper recently IN
which there wa. an article IN which
the editor used the term "plutocra-
tic'' in referring to other papers that
did not see things as he aid. He no
doubt overlooked the fact. that the
papers to which he made reference
might apply the same term TO him,
for, the word as used at the present
time means any man, WAC by industry,
foresight, application and intelligence
has accumulated competency and
are living a life of ease and having
the good things that money can pur-
base. 1t % a socialistIc term, and
it's tendencies are socialistic, con-
dition toward which the country Is
Fastening, as the result OF such eX-
pressions upon the part of men VINO
would deplore the enactment OF laws
which would dispossess them OF prop
erty Iegitima.aly obtained. Many
are sowing to the wind and may posi-
bly, reap the whirlwind in days tt
come. What we need now are sober
minded men, who can and will worl
for exact justice for all men.

Strange what a difference it makes
who one devotes himself to things
instead of to men, to cancellation

How wide the divergence in point

and win popularity IS common and
continuing; effort in the solution of
problems, the understanding of things
tor the problems and things sake
rare and recurrent.

the hour aud one by one he sees his
temples tumble down, the other builds
for time but builds unconcsiously; he
does not think of the hour or time,
gives but feeting though; to the
present or future and is content to let

build because he desires to build, but
because he has no choice. does the
