WISCONSIN A GOOD COUNTRY

We cannot all live in Wisconsin
nor all in jail or marble halls-but
there is yet room for thousands in this
part of our good old state, where
health makes for happiness and happi-
ness riches. You don't have to do any
inquiring. Follow the Star of the
North and when you come to the land
of red clover and timothy growing wild
on the cut over lands and where the
soil is rich and the waters pure, where
the flow of milk makes a river of
money, where the girls are pretty and
the babies fat, that's the land in which
we dwell. The golden west may boast
of her opportunities, the Alberta coun-
try of her waving fields of wheat, the
Dakotas of their fertile prairies, but
there is not in any, of all the blessings
found in Wisconsin, state that has
produced it's hundreds of millions in
forestry and ore, state unequaled for
its natural water powers, and better
than all, state that still awaits its
soil development to make it one of the
greatest wealth producers of any on
the map. That's Wisconsin. -Ex. :

MILLIONS ARE WASTED

1t is estimated that more than
a million hunters will invade the
fields and forests of the United States
during the next three months. Of
these more than 300, 900 gunners hunt
the bobWhite. One state alone issues
100000 resident hunting licenses an
nually. The shooters of this country
support an industry the capital of
which is greater than the combined
capital of all the other industries de-
voted to outdoor sports, with the ex-
ception of the automobile and motor
boat manufacturers. At the time the
money jugglers of Wall street were
running for cover two years ago, and
throughout the subsequent hard times,
half dozen different firearms were be-
ing perfected, and have since been
successfully introduced to the shoot
ing public. And yet shooting is mere
sport, and shotguns and rifles are lux
uries.-Pennsylvania Grit.

McClure's Magazine says there are
no flies in England; at least there are
so few that the inhabitants do not
think it worth while to screen their
dwellings,. The reason is the simplest
the tight little island is kept clean.
Fifty years ago flies were nuisance
in England; though not the plague
they are here, for no other really civ
ilized country was ever quite so dirty
as the United States of America. This
nuisance is pretty completely abated.
In fifty years England has been swept
and garnished, and the flies have
starved.

VIM H. Hatton, former state sena-
tor, and later one of the millionaire
candidates for United States sena-
tor, is quoted in the state press as say
ing that he does not favor special
session of the legislature next winter.
Neither do the people of the state. If
the question of calling the states law
makers together in special session next
winter were left to vote of the tax
payers of the state, it is safe con-
clusion that the special sessionists
would be literally buried by negative
ballots. 1t is source of satisfaction
that we have a prospect of getting
those much needed measures enacted
into law that were referred to special
session. But after all, the state is not
chatting so sorely for the legislation
that the imposition of an extra session
burden on the people is necessary. If
Governor Davidson would refuse to
call the legislature together next win
ter, few-very few would censure
him, and the people as whole would
endorse his action. The measures that
are to be considered at the proposed
extra meeting of the law makers are
of the utmost Importance and should
receive deliberate consideration before
being placed in the statute books. Such
consideration they would be more apt
to get in a regular session than in a
special meeting. Besides, the infor-
nation that the special committees
have gathered concerning the subjects
of good road, drainage, clean politics

President Taft appreciates the i'm
portance of the influence of the church
in the support of good government and
civic righteousness. In short speech
to the students of Catholic academy
at Portland, Ore, last Sunday, he said
''The time has come, when the
churches are standing shoulder to
shoulder, whatever the creed. They
are losing the bitterness of sectarian
dispute, and have taken this stand,
shoulder to shoulder, because it is
necessary in the contest for righteous
ness if their influence is to be felt

All the cats in Ireland would purr
their grateful regard for the late Miss
Alice Mary Swifte, of Ear.sDort Man
sions, Dublin if they knew the pro-
visions of her will. About $4,000.
more than half the amo.nt of her
estate, is left to cats-tLat is to say,
is devised for their benefit OF this,
$4,000 goes to the Dublin Home for
Forsaken and Starving Cats for the
support of the home and for the
chloroform chambers, where cats may
be put painlessly to death. Miss
SWifte was always down on yivisec
lion, and clause in her will provides
that if ever any of the cats are used
for vlvisection or anatomical purposes
the bequest shall be void; $3.50 is left
to the chief of the Irish constabulary,
and any person who prosecutes any
enc for cruelty to cats will receive
SO out of the income.
