HARTMAN HOLDINGS.

Recent financial operations in
railway securities, and substantial
advance in what are knownas Rock
Island stocks, has given rise to the
rumor that E. H. Hartman has OBJ
tanned control of the entire Chicago
& Rock Island railway system hay
ing an aggregate length of over
fourteen thousand miles. Should
this report prove true it will bring
the total of railways controlled by
Hartman up to approximately fifty
thousand miles.
When James j. Hill sought to
control two transcontinental lines of
railway terrible howl went up, and
Mr.. Hills scheme was set aside by
the United States Supreme court.
Hartman is operating upon scale
never even dreamed of by Hill, COB
bling up one transcontinental line
after another without hesitating to
inquire what the people are going
to do about it. 1t is not supposed
that Hartman will be content with
his present holdings, and when he
gets control of the most of the rail
roads that are in sight, the govern
ment will have 20 go after the rail
road problem in dead earnest"

CHEER UP.

One of the Madison newspaper
correspondents seems naturally in
clined to take quite pessimistic
view of his surroundings. A few
weeks ago he attempted TO convey
the impression that should Stephen
son be reelected to the United States
Senate this winter, and La Toilette
fail to secure a reelection two years
hence-two things that are liable to
happen-the country will surely go
to the dogs"
More recently the correspondent
has seen in the alleged Davidson
Baensch combination deplorable
racial conditions sad to contem-
plate. He should seek consolation
in rejecting upon the fact that dur
ing greater part of the time for the
past forty years Republican State
ticket was not generally considered
properly made;up if it did not con-
tain the name of at least one Scan
dinavian and one German, and sub
shutting an Irishman for the Scan
dinavian, the same might be said of
the Democratic State tickets. In
many counties throughout the State
a like idea has prevailed in the nom
ination of candidates for county
Offices. Yet, there has been no racial
unpleasantnes because of this.
The Scandinavians, the Germans,
and the Irishmen who have been
recognized in this way were citizens
of the United States and of the State
of Wisconsin,, and represented
strong elements which are making
their influence potent in advancing
the material interests of our State
and Nation. While it is true that
in many localities foreigners who
have become naturalized citizens are
more or less clanish they are no
more so than are Americans residing
in foreign countries.
Although there is no danger to be
apprehended from racial disturb
ances in Wisconsin, all attempts to
create racial prejudice among Amer
lean citizens should at all times be

HORTICULTURE.

Bulletin No. IA recently issued by
the State Horticultural Society con-
tains many valuable suggestions to
prospective purchasers of nursery
stock. In the beginning the point
is made that not all tree peddlers
are swindlers, only small percent
age. 1t is clearly shown by list
of 81 Wisconsin nurseries, ranging
in extent from to 80 acres, that it
is not necessary to go outside of the
state to purchase good trees and
plants at reasonable prices.
The seedless apple and the straw
berry raspberry are declared to DE
novelties not worth the price asked.
Several swindling games ere ex-
posed, among them Contract Or
chard" plan of selling trees by
which the buyer is charged an ex-
orbitant price for stock on strength
of agreement by the firm to trim
and replace trees for a period of
years, which agreement is rarely
or never fulfilled. Respects are al
so paid to a tree shark who has rep
resented himself as employed by
the society and an emphatic warn
ing to brand all such persons as
swindlers.
Part 2 of this bulletin gives eX-
tensive lists of hardy and reliable
fruits and ornamentals, being the
results of SIS years experimenting by
members of the Society.
A cordial invitation is extended to
all readers to become members. AS
the work of the Society is support
ed in part by state appropriation
the fee is merely nominal, SO cents
per year.
Copies of Bulletin No. IA may be
had free by our readers on applica-
ton to the Secretary, Frederic
Cranefeld, at Madison.

PRACTICAL
ROAD MAKING
University Extension Trains Highway
Officials to Make Good
Roads.

One of the most popular and profit
able courses given by the University
Extension Division of the University
of Wisconsin is that in Highway Con
Struction. The purpose of this course
is to give highway officials, and others
who have the responsibility of build
ing and maintaining public roads in
the state, an opportunity to acquire a
thorough and up-to-date knowledge of
the best material and best methods to
be employed in their work. Hereto
fore, many of the officials charged
with road construction, and road
maintenance, have been obliged to de-
pend largely upon the experience of
the people in their own town. These
practices and experiences are natural
ly limited. The local knowledge has
not been broad and complete enough,
and enormous sums of public money
have been wasted
While this course was not given
until January, 1908, the results have
already become apparent in many
parts of the state in the better use of
the money given for highway con-
struction. Citizens and public officials
of Wisconsin who have charge of the
work Of making roads in the state are
taught, without fee, and are charged
only the bare cost of the materials
which are used in correspondence,
amounting to but 70 cents. The course
consists of sixteen lessons.
After discussing the primary con-
sideration of proper road location,
road building is taken up. Under this
head are considered three elements
which enter into the making of
road; foundation drainage and sur
face. These three things are very
thoroughly studied. Road mainte-
nance is also very carefully studied.
A searching study is made Of the
various kinds of road machinery
points of efficiency and economy in
general as well as the merits and de-
fects of any particular machine. When
one considers the enormous sum of
money that has been wasted in Wis
consin in the building of roads and
the other wasteages which have re-
suited from bad roads, 1t seems diff
cult to estimate the value of this
direct and practical method of aiding
the people of the state. It is but
another illustration, however, of the
direct and efficient ways in which the
University is endeavoring to help the
people of the state, upon whom it has
relied and must rely for its support

MORE ROOM FOR DEAF
PUPILS.
New Buildings Opened at Wis
consin School for Deaf at
DeIavan, Wis.

The new $40, 900 Industrial build
ing and the $35, 900 dormitory for
girls at the Wisconsin School for
the Deaf at Delavan, Wis, are now
open, and Supt. E. w. Walker an
nounces that a large number of new
pupils can be accommodated.
The school is free state institu-
ton, and is open to rich and poor
alike. All deaf and dumb children
of school age in Wisconsin may
enter. Board, room, tuition, medical
aid and similar things are free of
charge, and the only expense to par
ents will be clothing for the children
and perhaps S. for incidental ex-
penses. Some pupils have taken
the full course for less than SIS per
year. Railroad fare to and from
the homes of the pupils is of course
to be borne by parents or guardians.
Although the best time to enter
the state school is in September,
new pupils are welcome at any time,
and Supt. E. w. Walker will gladly
receive all applications.
The school is in les ffty-fourth
year and has graduated more than
1 200 pupils, all of whom are now
engaged in useful occupations,
made possible by the varied course
of study. The industrial depart
ment, or school of trades, is a feat
ure of this benefcent state institu
ton.

Some of the newspapers have in
vestigation work enough laid out to
occupy much of the time of, the next
legislative session. The latest
proposition in this direction is to
investigate the alleged enormous
cost of the State printing. This
State has had some experience with
printing steals, but should the leg
islature go cunning for more of
them it will find that the quantity
of State printing has necess arily in
creased during the last few years.
Still, there may be few leaks found
that will need plugging up.

News comes officially from Colonel
Geothals, the chief engineer of the
Panama Canal, that the work will
be completed and that ships will
pass through the canal in the year
1915, or within six years from now,
and this information is given not
withstanding the fact that there are
land slides of large dimensions fall
ing back into the canal along the
Culebra Cut. These land slides
were to be expected. They occur in
all excavations, and in new cuts and
in a region of torrential rains, can
not be avoided. In time the steep
sides of the Canal, where il is cut
through the mountains, will be
terraced and overgrown with vege-
tation and these slides will, in a
great measure at least. be obviated.
1t is interesting to note that the
locks now building are ITO feet wide
and a thousand feet long. These
dimensions are such as will admit
the largest 'dreadnaught, or
vessels even two or three hundred
feet longer and twenty feet wider
than the LuSitanla.

The American-Japanese agree
ment," as it IS called here, or
treaty" as they call it in Europe,
is one of the most important of the
many important accomplishments
of Secretary Root during the years
that he has been chiefest in the
councils of the administration. 1t
is now known that the British Gov
eminent, in the first instance, and
then the German Government and
the Russian and French Govern
ments were all consulted and gave
their hearty approval of the agree
ment and indeed it is difficult to see
how they could do otherwise, since
the agreement looks to peace, pros
perity, commerce, equal rights and
the open door to all nations in the
Orient. The European press is of
the opinion that the agreement
means an alliance for military and
naval operations when the American
and Japanese Governments agree to
communicate with each other as to
the advisable measures in event of
the disturbance of the status quo.
The objects of the agreement are so
laudable that the nations not only
do not take offense, but heartily ap-
prove.

AMERICAN SOCIETY OF
EQUITY NEWS.

The meeting of the Wisconsin
State Union A. S. Of E. will occur
in Madison, Jan. 18th to 10Th.
National President C. 0. Drayton
of indianapolis, Ind, comes to Wis
consin for a series of twelve grand
rallies at regular County Convention,
commencing at Chiffon on Dec,
18th. The dates nearest here are,
Ellsworth, Dec. 22d; Roberts, Dec.
23d. All meetings will be held as
near 1880 p. m. as possible except
where otherwise noted.
The recent sale of every pound of
tobacco in the hurley pool, by the
American Society of Equity is the
largest single sale of tobacco on
record. Over eighty millions of
pounds of tobacco, yielding the
growers over sixteen millions of
dollars was the result of this sale.
The net average price tor good and
bad which the farmers received was
about fifteen cents pound. The
December 18th issue of the Wiscon-
sin Equity News will contain full
reports of the transaction. The
Wisconsin pool, though much
smaller, is meeting the same pro-
portionate success.
There is much talk in Equity
circles of establishing a central
packing plant and cold storage to
prevent, in the future, the loss and
robbery on our meat products.
Help it along.
