A Serious Deadlock,

The house joint resolution for 2
joint session 10 canvass the vote was
promptly tabled by the senate. 1t de-
clared that no joint session for the
canvass will be permitted until it is
assured that no proposition for re-
count will be made The senate reso-
luton for joint committee to ar
range Tor the Inauguration was sent
70 the house and also referred to j
committee. The senate declares ii
will continue 10 block legislation un.
III assured that the recount idea is
dropped. Since the constitution pro
fides that the first business of the as
sembly after permanent organization
is 70 canvass the vote, the deadlock
threatens TO become one of the most
serious fights the legislature ever had.
II Is agreed among the senate mem
oers that only a perfunctory session
VII be held during the rest of the
week. No business can be transacted,
ii is declared, before Tuesday next
and probably not then. The demo
cratic members of the house who help
cd 10 elect shurtleff are angered at the
senate's action and declare they will
continue 70 send resolutions for a
Joint session until the senate acts.
The house, they say, must keep the
records clear until this is attended TO.

LIQUOR FIGHT
AND SENATORSHIP
Illinois Legislators Ar. Said to Be Up
TO All Kinds of
Doines.

SPRINGFIELD, Jan. THE cleo
ton of Shurtlen BY Democratic votes
as speaker OF the house Of the Illinois
legislature seems 10 threaten the local
option bill and throw the senatorship
fight into confusion It is declared
here today that the liquor war was
the real factor behind the decision Of
the Democrats 10 support Shrutlef.
Although he helped 10 secure the pas
sage of the option measure it was be
cause he had made promise in order
10 secure his election. While he
could not ostensibIy help 10 weaken or
peal 1t now, he would not, it is said.
use his influence TO stop such an ac-
ton and would give it favorable com
mlttee assignments. 1t is said that
every liquor bill will be killed and
possibly an effort be made TO repeal
local option. The Democrats who fav-
ored option were persuaded TO sup
port Shurtlef and believe tnat he is
willing 10 help in the fight against De-
neen, for seating Stevenson. Deneen
may be candidate for the senate
some time and therefore it is said that
he VIII not hold out for senatorial
caucus member who declared he would
bolt if shurtler was elected by Dem
ocrats.
This makes the senatorship uncer-
tain There is feeling that Demo
cratic-Republican trade on the sena-
1orEhip may be under consideration.

But few farmers have any idea
Of the great work our government
is doing in the way of introducing
new plants and fruits from the old
world into the United States. Dur
ing the last fiscal year more than
1000 seeds and plants were
brought in. The department of
agriculture has explorers constant
ly ON the outlook for all kinds of
plants and fruits that seem capa-
bic of good yields in our own
country. They are picked up
especially in Manchuria, Korea
and China There are specimens
from wild apricot trees ten feet in
diameter. There are wild grapes
and wonderful persimmons and
bush cherries and other curious
and valuable specimens.

A HOT CAMPAIGN

The British House of Commons
on December 2, passed the follow
ing resolution:
That the action of the House of
Lords in refusing to enact into
law the financial provisions made
by this House for the year is u
breach of the Constitution and a
usurpation Of the privileges of the
House of Commons.
Immediately the King dissolved
the lower house and ordered an
election Of members of that body.
and now one of the greatest cam
paigl in the history OF England
il on.
The real issue is whether her
iditary body Of peers, who practic-
ally own ali the land and pay no
taxes, shall rule or the representa-
tives elected by the people shall
have voice in the practical affairs
OF government.
From this distance it looks like
n popular uprising by the people
to repudiate the House Of Lords.
The democratic party Of New
York is not in favcr Of direct pri.
maries. The men Of influence in
that party. such as Charles +.
Murphy, William F. Corners,
Pat lex McCabc and others are
not friends Of the proposed re-
form-Brooklin Times.
The same is true Of Colorado,
but the rank and file Of the party
are in favor Of direct primaries
and direct legislation. And the
same applies to the republican
party.

INSANE FARMER

SLABS CATTLE AND HORSES.

ing Building
ONLY ONE DAUGHTER ESCAPES

MONDOVI, Wis, Feb. 22.-[Special. ]
In fit of insanity early this morning
Henry B. Hanson, a farmer, aged sc
years. living near Strum in Trempealeau
county, killed his four children, one boy
and three girls, ranging in age from 5
to Is years, and then cut his own throat.
The children killed were Hugh, aged
IA, Mabel, aged u, Sadie, aged 10 and
Hanna, aged Z. All four were asleep
at the time and it is not definitely
known how they were put to death.
1t is thought that the frenzied farmer
cut their throats as they lay sleeping.
A hammer head found in the ashes near
the bones of the children has given rise
to the surmise that Hanson may have
cudgeled out the brains of his children
with a hammer.
Fires House and Barn.
Before cutting his throat Hanson
went into the barn and stabbed several
horses and cows, poured kerosene over
it. The house caught fire and the bodies
of the children were burned beyond
recognition. Neighbors arrived in time
to pull Hanson's body from the flames.
Rushing to the rescue they found
Hanson hanging out a window with his
throat cut. They dragged him to a
place of safety but he died within a
few minutes.
An inspection of the premises after
the tragedy disclosed the fact that Han
son had filed the feed throughs in the
barn with paris green.
Hanson's oldest daughter, Ella, a girl
about 20 years of age, was in Strum
at the time of the tragedy, and through
her absence escaped death at the hands
of her crazed father
Was Once in Asylum.
Hanson was a widower with five chill
dren. Twelve years ago he was con-
fined in an insane asylum but was re-
leased, the authorities failing to discover
any signs of insanity in him several
years ago.

MAY CHOOSE BADGERS,
Two Wisconsin Students Left On El1g1-
bility List for Harvard Debat-
ing Team.

BOSTON, Mass, Feb. 22.-[Special.l
Wisconsin is practically sure to be rep
resented by one, and perhaps by two
men on the debating team that will be
selected to compete for Harvard univer-
sity in the coming three-cornered inter
collegiate debate with Yale and Prince
ton.
Of the sixty candidates who originally
sought positions on the Harvard team
only six men remain for the final trials,
the last of this week. Of these six two
are from the Badger state. They are
Isaac Kenneth Lewis of Rockland, a
third year law school man and a gradu-
ate of Beloit, class of 1905 and Hans
Won Kaltenborn, member of the senior
class. from Madison. Curiously enough,
westerners have always been more con-
spicuous than eastern boys in Harvard's
debating teams and all of but one of
the remaining candidates hail from the
west.
The question to be debated in the
three-cornered debate is Resolved that
ali corporations engaged in interstate
commerce should be compelled to take
out a federal charter" Harvard will
uphold the affirmative side of the ques-
ton against Princeton, and will argue in
the negative against Yale.
