WISCONSIN TO THE FORE

Wisconsin made an exhibit at the IL
linois state fair, October LIST to 9th,
that was a surprise to the many thous-
ands of people who saw it. There were
many states represented ir the exhibit,
most of them expanding many times a !
much money on their displays, yet il
was common expression of visitor
that in quality the Wisconsin exhibit
was the finest on the grounds. Says
Commissioner of immigration Camp
bell: "Our grasses, clover, timothy and
native gr"rses, were so superior to all
others tina. blue ribbon was given US.
In potatoes, apples, squash, rutabagas,
field peas and barley the Wisconsin ex-
hibit stood as in class by itself. Our
sugar beets and tobacco attracted much
attention"

men in our schools and other affairs of
society is too great. 1t comes T, I'm a
bright little journal called the World
Events.
THE republic would be very safe if
it had no greater worry than the growth
of feminine influence in the manage
ment of its affairs. The sex, which for
generations has been the chief support
of the churches and schools has, per-
haps, allowed community interests to
fall too largely into the hands of the
sex which supports the saloons and
iails."

TRAGEDY roLLows ExposuRE on CRIME

One of the most deplorable defalca-
tons that has come to light in the his
tory of banking in Wisconsin is just
now the subject of comment and
cause for serious consideration among
depositors. The First National Bank of
Mineral Point closed its doors on We'd
nesday of last week, federal bank ex-
aminer causing the suspension after an
examination of the bark 3 affairs. Mr..
Philip Allen, Junior vice-president and
active manager 81 The concern, confess
ed to having appropriated something
approaching 100000 of the banks
funds to his personal speculation in
mining and other enterprises, and that
to accomplish and cover up his short
ages he had forged the names of very
great number of his neighbors and bank
patrons to obligations. 1t is not known
how much, if any, the depositors will
suffer. Because of the standing of Al
len this is one of the most serious bank
failures Wisconsin has experienced. No
man in all southwestern Wisconsin was
more implicitly trusted than the de-
faulting officer He was leader in
church and society and considered an
ideal citizen. He was an ordained min
lister of the gospel, as was his father
before him. But the mania for specu-
lation and get-rich-quick ambition over

bank, was placed under arrest and will
be taken to Madison as soon as his
physical conditions will permit.
