Senator LaFollette placed

Senator LaFollette placed his
personal feelings and attitude in the
background when it came to doing
the act of courtesy toward Senator
Stephenson when he presented mis-
credentials in the senate after being
reelected by the Wisconsin legisla-
ture. 1t vas not supposed that the
senator, in view of his attitude to-
ward Stephenson, that he would give
him any recognition at the proper
moment and arrangements were
made to have another senator pre-
sent his credentials to the presiding
officer of the senate. LaFollette
fought Stephenson in the primary
campaign and even after he was Sc
lected as the choice of the people
LaFollette kept up the fight to pre-
vent his election in the joint as
sembly. This is an instance of the
strong supporter of the primary try
ing to defeat the very object of that
reform measure We cannot quite
understand how LaFollette could
overcome his feelings 10 perform the
Office for a man of whom he express
ed the idea that he had gained his
seat in the senate through illegiti-
mate means.

Governor Deneen's job as COVER
o of Illinois is no longer in doubt.
1t will be remembered that Adlai
Stevenson asked for a recount of
the votes, claiming that he was real
ly elected governor. The matter
was referred to a recount commits
tee and after an investigation of all
matters laid before it the committee
decided that Stevenson did not have
any case and that the whole matter
should be dismissed. The senatorial
election is still unchanged and the
eleven candidates for Senator Hop
kin's position are still standing pat.
Hopkins has II votes as the top
notcher, and the others string out
down to two. Forty-five ballots have
been taken on the senatorial elect
ion-but the deadlock has not been
broken.

While the Coopers we're found
guilty of numbering Senator Carmack
and the jury recommended a sentence
of twenty years in the p~enitentiary,
the fight will now be taken up TO
keep the two men out of the peinten-
tiary. 1t does seem like a travesty
on justice that when the Coopers
killed the Tennessee senator, which
act was committed on the street. that
there should be a loophole whereby
they might be able to escape their
punishment. There was no question
in the jury roo but what the Coop
ers were guilty, and the only qUes-
ton up for discussion was the limit
of punishment. The attorneys OF
the Coopers will work the law for
all they i worth, and the chances
are they will never be required to &c
through the punishment inflicted by
the jury. The convicted men were
permitted to give bond and will be
free while the attorneys try to have
the verdict set aside on the ground
that there was a disagreement of the
jury before it agreed. 1t seems like
a mighty small technicality on which
to try and secure d new trial.

Commissioner Dokken of the de-
partment of school and public lands,
says in his last report thai on the
30th of last June the state had a
permanent school endowment fund
of ~s3,207.992. He points cut that
the state has 1,S53,71O acres OF UNI
sold school lands, and the commits
sioner estimates that when ali TIC
lands are sold the total of The school
fund will be one hundred millions
of dollars. OF course he has this too
high, for to attain this figure it would
be necessary to sell the land at ar
average of $50 per acre. y total of
forty million dollars could however,,
be easily attained, and this would
mean in the end a total annual in
come to the schools of two million
dollars, before a penny was raised
for direct taxation. The school fund
is a handsome thing for the state,
and so far it has beer handled wisely

Manv of the legislatures are wras

Many of the legislatures are wros-
thing with the Sunday baseball prev
osition, particularly in states wher1
the big leagues are in operation. Ne
braska, however, stands pat on its
Sunday law and the Lincoln team
has scheduled all its Sunday games
to be played at st. Joe, Mo. There
seems to be Il popularity about the
Sunday baseball game which does not
appear to be so much of Dissertation
of the Sabbath day as some other
things, that it AFFORDS thousands of
people a recreation that they do not
get during the week. 1t is, presume
ably, to give the working classes a
chance to see the game that Sunday
ball is permitted.

The new tariff bill is in the HANDS
of congress and which is to provida
the revenue for the future of the
government. II will bring in $780,
900, 900, making an increase of over
$40, 900 900. Doubtless it is going
to take some time to secure the pass
age of this bill through both branches
of congress, but it is provided that
just as soon as it is adopted it viii
become effective. HI looking about
for an increased evenue President
Taft strongly recommended the adj
option of an inheritance tax, and the
committee embraced this in the new
regulation, making it one of the
strongest features of the measure.
1t provides for a tax of 8 per cent on
inheritances ranging from $4,000
to 100000, and embraces practi-
cally all the features of the New
York law. The newspapers of the
country made a winning fight to a
certain extent concerning wood pulp
and printing paper. Wood pulp COM
ing from any country that does not
have an export duty on certain for
est products is to be admitted free.
The duty on printing paper is reduce
ed 66:s and so per cent, according
to value. Lumber is given a reduction
Of SO per cent, while coal is placed
on a reciprocal basis, and will be
received free from my country which
admits the same articles from this
country. The committee has been
working for five months on this bill
and 1t is much larger than the Ding
ley bill, containing 100000 more
words than that Of the Maine mans
measures Of some years ago.

1t is not often that we hear of the
compulsory education law being en-
forced to the point where the fine was
imposed. Such was the case down
in Hutchinson county and it took
place out in the rural districts. The
teacher filed a complaint that two of
the patrons of the school were not
sending their children to the school
and he proposed to find out why,
after repeated efforts had been made
to secure their attendance. The
father of one of the children was con-
WINGED that he was wrong and paid
his fine of s11.7O. The other farmer
stood trial on the case and
thought he could convince the court
that he had a right to keep his chill
dren at home. The excuse he offer
ed to the court was that the weather
was stormy and Sc much rain pre-.
vailed; and that early in the fall he
kept his children home to herd the
COWS and husk the corn. The court
held that under the law this did not
stand as any excuse for keeping The
children out of school. The cour'

The fealty of some men to the
trade union was illustrated down at
Danville, ILL.,, when a miner made
application for naturalization papers.
The court asked the miner, Brooks
by name, if such a thing should hap
pen where the law of the state and
the laws of the union should clash if
he would support the law. Brooks
answered with some feeling that he
would follow the instructions of the
union. The court thinking the miner
might not have fully understood the
question. propounded the query
twice afterward and each time elicit
ed the same reply. The court re-
fused then to admit him as a citizen
of the United States, expressing the
opinion that a mar who had no more
regard for the laws of this country
than expressed by the miner should
be not allowed to become a citizen.
The miner it is said, urged by friends
to reconsider his statements and ac-
knowledge that he would obey the
laws of this country. Even under
those circumstances the miner ought
to be barred, for he fully and freely
answered the questions of the court.
