numerous other ODSerVanceS OF the
day, members of A. Lincoln Post No. 4,
G. A. R., have decided not to have a
public mass meeting as had been orig
inally planned, and the old soldiers
will spend the day visiting such places
as they may see fit, to listen to ad-
dresses on the martyred president.
The regular monthly meeting of
the post will be held Saturday, Feb.
49, and arrangements have been made
for an early adjournment of the busi-
ness session in order that an address
on the life of Abraham Lincoln may
be made to members of all army or
ganizations who may wish to attend. 1t
is probable that Rev. M. L. Sanders,
of the First Acknowledgements,
church, whose father was a member of
the G. A R., will be secured to make
the address on that occasion. Mem
bers of the Spanish American War
Veterans, the Sons of eVterans and
the Women's Auxiliaries are to be in
vited to the Lincoln meeting, when
the warriors will indulge in reveries
of thos stirring days when the hand
of Abraham Lincoln at the helm of
this great nation offered the one
source of comfort and encouragement
to the millions waiting in expectancy
for the cessation of hostilities and the
reconstruction of the union.
Many of the members of A. Lincoln
post will visit the schools, others will
attend the labor meeting in the even
ing, and the program to be given un-
der the auspices of the Young Mems
club of the First Congregational
church, will interest many.
The Labor Unions.
The committee appointed some time
ago by the trades and labor council
has completed arrangements for a
mass meeting to be held in Labor
Temple in the evening, when Attorney
F. A. Garrecht will be the principal
speaker, and music will be Furnished
bv the LaSalle orchestra and band. A
number of local speakers have con-
sented to make short talks appropri-
ate to the occasion, and everyone is
cordially invited to attend and assist
the laboring men in the observance OF
the Tooth anniversary of Abraham Lin
soln.
Flags at half mast throughout the
city will be the prevailing custom, a
committee from the G. A. r. having
made the rounds of the business
houses to prevail upon business men
to follow the custom of such occa-
sions. Business will be practically at
a standstill, the day having been set
aside as a legal national holiday. Many
of the business houses will remain
closed all day. while others will close
at noon to give employees an opportu-
nitv to attend the various gatherings
to be held in honor of the Tooth ami
versarv of the martyred hero.
Young Mems Club.
Plans are now being formulated for
a literary program to be given FRI
dav evening, February IL, in the First
Congregational church, the Young
Mems club being in charge. 1t is the
intention to give a literary program on
the life of Abraham Lincoln, noteG
sneaker to be engaged to make the
nrincipaI address of the occasion.

Proposed PrOfessOrshiD for study of
Remedial Law.
That the only effective method OF study
Ing the weaknesses In the present system
Of administering Justice would be brought
about by the establishment at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin OF a professorship
for the comparative and critical study OF
the operation Of remedial law, was the
most important conclusion reached by the
first conference on criminoloEy and GRIM
inal law held here. The judges, attorneys,
physicians and criminologists who attended
the conference agreed that the true lines
OF progress in the administration OF jus
tice can be ascertained only by thorough
and disinterested investigation, and that
the natural place for such a laborious and
scholarly research is the state university.
The degree Of popular dissatisfaction
with the administration OF justice in this
country, the member OF the conference be-
lieved, warrants the establishment Of such
a chair. There is not the least doubt, II
was said, that such a progressive step
would be ~applauded both in this country
ana abroad. Not only would Wisconsin
soon be recognized as a model state in re-
spect to it's system OF administering Jus
tice, but the results of the Investigation
would Influence the policy Of every state
In the union.

ference presented the matter in its report,

careful study would be made OF the jury

examined carefully to ascertain what pro-
portion were on technicalities and prao-
tice and what proportion on substantive
law. The results Of releasing adult first
offenders on parole, the various types OF
juvenHe courts and their workings and
similar matters pertaining TO the organiza-
ton and administration OF justice would
also form a basis for the professors work.

Two decided decreases are noticeable in
