WISCONSIN LEGISLATURE.
Woman's Suffrage.

Madison, March 25.-Woman's sun
rage will be submitted to a vote OF
the people at the fall election in 1910
if the recommendation of the senate
committee on elections is adopted by
the legislature. The committee re-
ported favorably the Stout Dill SUD-
hitting the question to the voters.
The senate advanced to third
reading the substitute amendment to
Senator Fairchild's bill, relating to
the larceny of horses. 1t reduces the
maximum penalty from IS to eight
years.
In an effort to discourage the
flood of petitions in favor of county
option. Senator Bodenstab preclpl-
tated merry war in the senate by
introducing a motion that no more
typewriter petitions be received.
Senator Bird Immediately protested.
He waved a handful of petitions, one
of which had 500 names and they
expressed the opinions of his peo-
pie and he wanted them received.
Senator Lehr rather favored the
motion and said he was Withholding
some petitions till he could investl-
gate the authenticity. Senator
Blaine warned that such motion
would be an abridgment of the right
of petition guaranteed by the consti-
tuition. Senators Pearson, Browne,
Owen, Whitehead, Martin and Bishop
protested against the motion while
Senator Page spoke for it. Sen
ator Bodenstab finally withdrew his
motion and Senator Lyons, in order
to save time, moved that the pc
titions be not read by the clerk, but
Messrs. Owen and Whitehead OBJ
jected, the latter believing such action
amounted to abridgment of petition.
The chair sustained Senator White
head, holding that the presumption
must be that the petitions were in
troduced in the interests of good
government. The clerk then read the
enormous stack of petitions. Some
$4,000 names were represented by
the petitions.
The senate committee on state af-
fairs recommended for passage Sen
ator H. e. Marshs bill providing for
county option. The recommendation
of the committee was not unani-
nous, Senators Marsh, Pierson and
Barker voting FAYE" and Senators
Page and Burke voting mo" The
Marsh bill was made special older
for next Wednesday morning at 1890
o'clock at which time it will come up
for discussion in the senate.
In the lower house Assemblyman
Frank Hammill's proposal to change
the constitution of the state, placing
limitation of 100 days upon the
length of legislative sessions failed
by the close vote of As to 46.
The rock pile is a sovereign rem
eGy for vagabondage. At least, such
was the experience Of Assemblyman
Merlin Hull gained while he was dis
trict attorney of Jackson county. For
five winter months there was an aver
age of 20 tramps month fed and
housed at public expense in Black
River Falls. Each vag cost the
county so cents a day to feed. This
expense took no account of sheriff's
OF court fees. Then Mr.. Hull in
spired the installation of rock pile
at the Jail and by the end of two
months the tramp became an utterly
unknown personality in the Black
River Falls region. Mr.. Hull has in
troduced a bill authorizing every
county to establish its rock pile and
today it was favorably reported by
committee.

important adjunct

What is the most important adjunct
OF the kitchen?
Any housewife will tell you that 1t
is the stove. and II you are curious
enough to inquire what kind of stove
she prefers she will reply, In nine
cases out Of ten-that is II she Is an
up-to-date housewife-that gas stove
is the ideal cooker.
Why?
Well. there are many reasons. In
the first place il is always ready for
service. Turn a cock, strike a match
and you nave your fire. BY simply
turning the cock TO the right or the
left you can regulate the fire TO the
demands OF the occasion, obtaining
any degree Of heat desirable and with
splendid results as regards the menu
When your dinner is done you sim
ply turn off the gas and the fuel ex'
pense stops instantly. No heat is
! wasted as in the old-fashioned way
of cooking with a coal or wood fire
Think OF standing over a coal range
with the official thermometer regis
tering 80 degrees In the shade.
So the use OF gas In cooking means
great saving in time and money
make for greater comfort I'm the kitch
en-, which is the housewives workshop
and brings better results all around
A well-cooked meal Is a womans pride
and is the surest means OF putting the
head OF the family in good humor
after a strenuous day in store, office
or factory In this way the gas stove
| has become a real benefactor TO man
! kind.
But the Sc of gas is by no means
confined TO the kitchen. Just as IL
promotes comfort and happiness IN
the home, It stimulates trade in COM
mercial channels by helping the mer-
chant to display his wares Every
business man knows the value OF a
well-lighted store Shoppers are not
going to strain their eyes In Smiths
dingy, ill-lighted establishment when
they can step into Jones or Browns
across the street and make their selec-
tons under the brilliant rays OF a
gas arc lamp The gas arc is a good
investment for any merchant. and
what's more, it's economical and r..
liable II never goes out just at the
time when IL Is most needed AMI
when you are least expecting such a
thing.
There are now In use In stores, fac.
tories and other buildings in Detroit
no less than 10000 gas arc lamps,
and the demand Is increasing con
stantly. The reason is obvious.

The greatest Indignation prevails
in Denver against former Gov. Buch-

Buchtel was cutting off great deal
from the former bankers sentence.
The one subject of conversation is

governor and violated all tenents OF
Jurisprudence. His explanation. as
