After the Butter Trust

Attorney General Wickersham
wants to know whether the Elgin but
ter board is a combination in re-
straint of trade. He has assigned @.
E. Harrison, one of the administration
trust busters, to make a thorough in
vestigation to determine whether the
Sherman antitrust law is being vio-
lated.
The attorney general said that pre-
liminary investigation had been in
progress for some time, but that his
attention was called to the situation
particularly by the testimony of Pres
ident Newman and Vice President
Wood of the Elgin board before the
senate cost of living committee yes
terday.
The Elgin officials gave the COM
mittee the idea that the price OF but
ter was fixed arbitrarily about as
high as it was thought the public
could stand it. Mr.. Wickersham call
ed for transcript of the testimony.
The suspected combination is be-
tween butter producers and whole
salers controlling the markets in
northern Illinois, southern Wisconsin,
and eastern Iowa, thus bringing the
matter under the jurisdiction of the
courts

About the Coming Census

The census begins April Is and
must be completed in thirty days.
The enumerators will wear a badge
inscribed United States Census,
1910"
The law requires every adult per-
son to furnish the prescribed informa-
ton, but also provides that it shall be
treated confidentially, SO that no in
jury can come to. any person from
answering the questions.
The Census Bureau, prior to April
IS. will distribute to every farm own
er and tenant in this state blank or
schedule containing the census ques-
tions relative TO farm operations and
equipment. This should be filled up,
if possible, not later than the morning
of April Is, but if anyone has been
unable to fill it up by that time, he
should do it as soon afterwards as he
can.
People who do not speak English or
who do not understand the schedule
completely should get help from 9TH
erS, if possible, in filling it up.
The president has issued a procla-
nation, calling on all citizens to CO.
operate with the census and assuring
them that it has nothing to do with
taxation, army or jury service, COM
pulsory school attendance, regulation
of immigration, or enforcement of any
law, and that no one can be injured
by answering the inquiries.
1t is of the utmost Importance that
the farm census of this state be COM
plete and correct.
Therefore every farm owner and
tenant should propmtly, fully, and ac-
curately fill up the Advance Farm
Schedule" and carefully preserve it
for the eunmerator when he calls.

Aldermen Take a Ride

Editor Leader - Sunday afternoon,
three of the city fathers of Watertown
went to the Buroff garage and rented an
auto to take ride over the beautiful
Coffee road Mr.. Buroff, knowing the
condition Of the road, no doubt,
gave them the best machine he
had on hand, but it was not
strong enough, as subsequent experience
proved, for the machine broke down
shortly after striking the road and there
being II" means Of making repairs and
not being mechanics, one of the alder.
men "hoofed" it back to the city and re-
turned in due time with his horse and
buggy, and conveyed his associates to
their homes, one weighing something
less than a quarter of ton, the drive
homeward being over the aforesaid beau
tifHl (?) highway, good now, as the farm
ers assert, and during the return drive
had to stop and tinker with the buggy,
although it is strong one. We hope
they will sympathiZe with their farmer
friends and give them a passabIe road in
the future. 1t might possibly stop some
of the mail order house business.

Lawrence Glee Club Concert

The Lawrence College Glee club "f Ap-
preston on god sized audience at he
Turner opera house Friday evening.
The college singers came to WatertOwn
heralded as ''WiseOnsin's Best Glee Club"
and that the appellation is deserving
one seemed to be the general verdict Of
those present.
The club is composed of twenty-eight
voices and was trained by William Har
per, dean of the Lawrence conservatory
Of music. Mr.. Harper has brought the
singing of the college boys to high de-
gree Of perfection, especially in regard
to harmony and finish. A wide range of
songs, serious and comic, gave ample op-
pOrtunity to demonstrate the efficiency
Of the club.
One of the best features Of the pro-
gram was the singing of the quartet,
which rendered several selections with a
degree of finish and Interpretation sell
dom heard in a college organization.
Mr.. Sias, the reader, was excellent and
was compelled to respond to several en-
cores.
There were many fine voices in the
club-in fact all good and well trained
to bring out volume and sweetness. The
four old favorite songs made grand hit
In the last part of the program little
college farce, "a Night Off," was render
ed, including speaking, mirth and song,
and it was unusually pleasing This
part of the program dropped from the
classic to the realistic college life and
every moment Of it was enjoyed by the
audience. Boys, you have the talent
and we hope you'll come again. We
like the rOlicking spirit of college life
and like to hear it in your singing.
Those of our citizens who failed to at
tend the concert missed rare treat and
it is TO be regretted that every available
space in the hall was not occupied.

N. E. Stevens

The following from the ST. Louis
Globe Democrat, will be Of interest to
the earlier residents of this city:
Illinois oldest editor, working actively
every day at his desk is N. E. Stevens of
the Paxton Record He has been en-
gagged in his chosen profession without
interruption for fifty-seven years, and
for forty-seven years has published and
edited the Paxton paper. Now, while
nearing his 80th year, he realizes that in
the Lear future he must retire in favor
of younger blood. lie is yet hale and
hearty, thanks to the simple life, and
may be able to WELD the editorial pen
for some years to come.
Mr.. Stevens is a native of Ohio and at
The age of 20. in Ashtabula county, OHIO,
established the Democrat there. This
was in 1853. The following year he es-
tablished the Painesville Ohio Adver-
tiser, but after one years experience, he
emigrated to Wisconsin, where he pur-
chased half interest in the WatertOwn
Chronicle. He remained there uutil
1857, when he established the Watasha
County Herald in Minnesota, remaining
there until January l, 1865, when he es-
tablished the Paxton Qll.) Record and
has been steadily in charge since.
Editor Stevens has watched his home
city grow from 500 population in 1865 to
a city of several thousand, and he has
always been one of the strongest and
most loyal promoters. He stands high
in the respect and esteem of the COM
munity, and is an honor to his profess
sion. There are possibly some editors in
the west who are as old as Mr.. Stevens,
but there are no instances known to the
writer where an editor has continued
steadily at his desk and with no change
in his paper for as long period as Edi-
tor Stevens He is in close touch with
every detail in the operation of his es-
tablishment, and can set type if occasion
demands. He is at home in every de-
partment, and does not hesitate to help
out in case of emergency. Although he
is distinguished member of the old
school Of Illinois provincial editors, he
has kept up with the times, and is we'll
read upon all topics of public interest.
He is, indeed, the NestOr of Illinois jour

Just a Hint

The attention of the local management
of the interurban line is called to the
fact, that the company is losing patron
age by reason of the muddy condition of
the street at the terminal of the line,
near the Northwestern depot, whenever
it rains. Monday evening large num-
Der of passengers alighted from the
train from the north who would have
patronized the line if they could have
reached the car without wading through
mud ankle deep. A few dollars expend-
ed III constructing a walk from the side
walk to the car line would be profit
able investment for the Milwaukee L.,
Ii. and Traction company.

Wire Fence Dangerous

Increasing use of electric currents
in the country should alter the atti-
tude of the careful toward the wire
fence, which has almost completely
supplanted the old worm fence Of
wood. This is made clear by the IA
tality near Dodgeville, Wisconsin,
through contact with a wire fence
over which an electric conductor had
dropped when dislodged by a storm.
A man who tried to climb through the
fence was instantly killed, and three
men who found the body and tried to
extricate it were so badly shocked by
the current that they were saved only
by prompt and vigorous medical at
tention.
