ATTACKS CAR COMPANY
ATTORNEY TICHENOR DENIES
RIGHT TO USE STREETS.
Claims That Franchise Was Granted Be-
fore Cities Had Power to Give Away
Right to Interurban Roads.

WAUKESHA, Wis, Oct. g. Spe-
cial. lin an open letter Attorney Yer
non H. Tichenor of this city calls at
tention to recent supreme court de-
cision that an interurban railway COM
pany has no. rights on city's streets
unless franchise is granted by the
city council for interurban purposes.
The only franchise rights the Milwaukee
Light, Heat & Traction company has
here, he says, are those permitting them
to give local street railway service They
have no right, he maintains, to run
through cars or carry through passen-
gers.
Up to 1901 there was no law authoriz-
ing the granting by a city Of any fran
chise rights to an interurban road and
the franchise granted here for local
street railway service was before that
date. The rights granted to the COM
pany here up to this time have been
without compensation. Mr.. Tichenor
suggests a number of things that might
reasonably be demanded of the company
in the event that an interurban fran
chise is granted them. These are that
the city should receive the $1,000 prom
ised by the company for street improve
ment on Lincoln avenue; that the COM
pany sprinkle the streets on which they
run; that the company pave between
the outside rails of their tracks; that the
company erect a waiting room; that the
company erect new bridge across the
Fox river on Broadway.
Mr.. Tichenor also suggests in his let
ter that there should be some definite
understanding with the company as to
the service and fare between this city
and West Allis and Milwaukee. If there
was a cheaper fare between Waukesha
and West Allis it would be of great
benefit as many Waukesha people are
employed there and more would come
here to make their homes. He urges that
Waukesha is entitled to the same round
trip fare to West Allis as people pay
from Milwaukee to West Allis, namely
20 cents instead of 40.

three days and three nights to see the
end of it.
1t would carry past him more than
1O0,O00,OOO bushels of the best wheat in
the world, 12O,OOO,OOO bushels of oats and
2O,OO0,O0O bushels of barley, for these
figures, according to very best estimates
that can be given at the present time,
show what the settlers of Western Canada
have raised this year in the way of grain.
Never in the history of any country
has there been a more prosperous year
for farmers than the present one in the
Dominion West. So enormous has been
the grain production that nearly 25,OOO,-
coo pounds of binder Irvine were required
for the crops. Oats this season
have gone as high as one hundred
bushels to the acre, while over large areas
of country the average has been as high as
eighty and ninety bushels. The wheat
yield has been as high as fifty bushels to
the acre, and from figures already in it
is believed that the total will show an
average yield of between twenty and twen-
ty-fye bushels to the acre throughout the
three provinces.
1t is difficult for one to understand
just what Western Canada means to the
farmer until he takes at least one trip
through that country. AS yet the vast
grain lands of the three western prov
inces, with an area large enough to sup
port the population of a nation, have
hardly been scratched. In other words, it
may truthfully be said that the tremen-
dous production of these provinces to-day
is that of a few pioneers. Last year
sixty thousand of the best farmers in
the United States took up new homes
for themselves there, and from the sta
tistics of the past two or three years each
one of these settlers will be harvesting
from 500 to 1000 bushels of grain next

MAKES OFFER TO STATE.
John Depee, Oconomowoc Millionaire,
Favors Strict Enforcement of Game
Law Regarding Quail.

MADISON, Wis, Oct. 6.-[Special.l
To assist the state in enforcing the law
which prohibits the killing of quail for
some time, John Depee, a millionaire of
Chicago, who lives at Oconomowoc. has
made a novel offer to the state game
warden, which he would like TO have
made part of the laws of the state.
He states he will pay sum equal to the
full amount of the fine, to any person
who will give information that will con-
Wet a person of killing quail in the state.
The law provides that fine in case of
a conviction shall be from $25 to 500.
