Prosecutions Continue

Some people feared that because
the Standard Oil Company held the
highest trump in the twenty million
dollar fine suit and the beef trust
was not "held up" that the govern
ment would let the trusts have their
own way, hereafter, but Uncle
Sam" is continuing business at the
old stand. After a determined re-
sistance the sugar trust has been
compelled to disgorge two million
dollars that it had cheated the gov
eminent out of by means of false
weights of imports, and also to pay
a fine of one hundred and ten thou
sand dollars for rebating. 1t is re-
ported that the sugar trust will soon
have 10 face criminal prosecution
for the methods that it employs in
the transaction of its business.
Five big railway companies are to
be prosecuted for looking upon
sugar as "rebating" commodity
AS we have previously observed, if
imprisonment of corporation officials
was substituted for, or added to
fines, there would be far less call
for prosecutions than under the fire
system.

State Sunday
School Convention

Wisconsin Sunday School workers
of all denominations are planning a
great convention TO be held at Wau-
sau, June 22-24.
Some of the foremost religious
speakers and instructors of America
are on the program, among them DR..
A. c. Dixon, famous preacher and
lecturer, formerly of Boston, now
of Chicago; DR.. c. H. Beale, the
distinguished preacher and orator,
of Milwaukee; Rev. M. S. Littlefeld,
of Brooklyn, N. Y; Rev. w. A.
Brown, of the Young Peoples Mis-
sionary Movement; DR.. Franklin
McElfresh, Mr.. J. S. Durham and
Mr.. Charles D. Meigs of the Inter-
national Workers, and many others.
The Wisconsin Sunday School
Association is making marked pro-
gress, forty-seven of the counties
now being organized for the develop
ment of teachers and better teach
ing. Every preparation is being
made for the largest and best Sun
day-school convention eyer held in
the state. Entertainment of dele
gates at Wausau will be on the
Harvard Plan, lodging and break
fast free, and other meals at low
prices and at places convenient to
the church. This free entertainment
is limited, so that delegates intend
ing to be there should write long in
advance 10 Mrs. B. A. Benson, 121
Second Avenue, South, chairman of
entertainment committee, Wausau,
to be sure to secure places. Every
pastor, officer, teacher and adult
pupil of every Sunday school in the
state is invited to be delegate.
The present headquarters of the
Wisconsin Sunday School Associa-
ton is at Appleton, and Prof. Chas.
w. Treat, vice president of Lawrence
College, is the President of the AS
ISOLATION. The office will probably
be moved to Milwaukee before long.
Further information will be given
and programs furnished upon re-
quest to w. ]. Semelroth, General
Secretary, Appleton, Wis.

Peas For Canning

The growing of peas for canning
is to be introduced into Ashland
county and vicinity in northern Wis
consin as a result of the educational
campaign and experiments conduct
ed by the sub-station of the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station of the
University of Wisconsin. The agro-
nomy dep artment of this station has
urged the growing of peas in this
section for several years.
About 5000 acres of cut-over
lands have just been bought by a
canning company, which will erect
cannery in the vicinity of Marengo,
Wis, to handle the crop. The area
devoted to peas will be increased as
rapidly as the land can be subdued.
The raising of canning peas is a
movement of considerable import
ance to agriculture in Northern Wis
consin since a new and profitable
crop will be introduced which has
been demonstrated to be adapted to
the soils of the section by the ex-
periments conducted at the Univers-
ity Of Wisconsin sub-station.

Probable Reaction

Although it has been the proud
boast of the La Toilette and David
son administrations that they have
been running the State government
without resorting to a direct state
tax, thorough investigation would
disclose a lavish expenditure of
State funds. The ordinary resources
that have combined to pour money
into the State treasury have been
great, and to these were added hun
dreds of thousands of dollars from
the United States treasury in pay
ment of claims growing out of the
civil war. Of course the money re-
imbursed by the United States gov
eminent should, as business prop
osition, have been applied to
| liquidation of the State indebted
ness contracted as a basis upon
which rested the claims against the
general government, an indebted
ness upon which the State is paying
seven per cent interest. Instead of
this, however, such money so re-
ceived from the general government
was turned into the general fund to
help pay an unnecessary army of
game wardens, oil inspectors, fact
DRY inspectors, fire marshals, etc.,
without the aid of a direct tax.
This was the Joker" in the reform
deck, and it has raked in a number
of tricks.
The reaction that must inevitably
follow such profigate financial man
agement is already being feared in
the reform camp, and a note of
warning the reform has been sound
ed. The State Treasurer has mott
fed the Legislature that if it enacts
all financial legislation proposed by
bills already introduced, a direct
State tax amounting to four million
dollars will be necessary. 1t is
stated that this would mean direct
State tax alone of two dollars and
a half upon every thousand dollars
of local assessment. This is in
striking contrast with the report
given out some months ago that the
new State capitol is being built with
out recourse to a direct State tax.
1t should be borne in mind that this
information did not originate in the
collapsed stalwart band-wagon, but
was handed out by one Of the 'trooly
good" reformers who had previously
admitted that the cost of State
printing might be cut down $37 500
a year without detriment to the
public service.
With the so-called reform faction
of the Republican party of Wiscon-
sin hopelessly divided the next state
campaign will undoubtedly furnish
some interesting developments. La
Toilette never Waged a more deter
mined and bitter fight against the
stalwarts than is now being waged,
at his instigation, in opposition to
his former co-worker, Senator Steph-
enson, down at Madison, and if the
junior Senator retains his seat in
the Senate it will be in spite of the
most determined efforts of La Fol
lette to secure his expulsion. In
the meantime the Wisconsin tax
payers are paying the bills, and
wondering how the Kilkenny cat"
fight will end.
