Representative Cary of Milwaukee
is not the first new member who has
been astounded" by his first glimpse
Of the inner workings of congress. His
choice Of words is poor however in his
own case. The dictionary defines "as
found" as to strike dumb with amaze
ment' and Mr.. Cary apparently is 60
ing to have something to say about his
impressions.

With regard to the controversy now
going on between the people of Pleas
ant Prairie and the powder trust it
strikes us that legislation to regulate
the manufacture Of powder by state in
spection is not so much needed as law
that will prevent the storage of any
great quantity Of the powder in any one
place particularly in the vicinity of
the works where the liability of acct
dent is greatly increased by the ex
traordinary and unusual hazards in
separable from the manufacture Of ex-
plosives. Providing the state inspec-
ton does not seem to fit the case some
way for it is incredible that any ordi-
nary precautions to insure as far as
possible the safety Of life and property
have been neglected by the managers
of the plant and their long experience
in the business better fits them to judge
what precautions must be taken to pre-
vent accidents during the process Of
manufacture than any political ap-
pointee of the state to the position Of
inspector. The state of course might
secure the services of a powder expert
but he would know no more about pre-
ventive measures than the men now in
the business. The risks Of powder MAX
ing are very great and can hardly be
exaggerated but all of these risks
should have been taken into considera-
ton before the plant was permitted to
locate where it is and so far it must
be admitted that under ordinary condi-
lions they are apparently not so very
dangerous to people outside the limits
of the plant. The great danger Of an
explosion that will devastate the sur
rounding territory we believe lies in
the accumulation of surplus stocks at
the mills and if the company allows
these stocks Of explosives to accumu-
late at the plant as is alleged by the
people Of Pleasant Prairie we believe
that it is taking an nnjustifable risk
and one that should be forbidden by
law. The state certainly is well within
it's rights in investigating these charges
and in taking the necessary steps to pre-
vent the storage Of any considerable
quantity of powder in the immediate
vicinity Of the plant where the shock
of an otherwise not dangerous explo-
sion may set it off.

Tile chief difficulty with the scheme
70 depoft the able bodied aliens who
have been less than year in this
country but who have already become
charge on the city and county because
of their inability to get work during
the hard times is that there is no way
to make them stay in their own country
after they are sent there. Most of
these men are alleged to have sent
home the bulk of the money they have
made during their short stay in this
country and they would probably vel
come the chance to take trip home
at the expense Of somebody else at this
time as they could then live there on
their savings until times get better
when they would probably promptly re
turn to this country to try their luck
again. There is no way the county
could keep track Of them after they
are deported and it looks as if the cheap
er way would be to support them here
taking care however that they DO not
live better at the expense of this county
than they do when they are paying
their own way
