INSTRUCTION IN THE SCHOOLS
Children Being Taught the Nature and
Methods of Prevention of
Tuberculosis.

Definite instruction concerning the
nature and methods of prevention OF
tuberculosis is being given to less
than six per cent of the public school
children of the United States, accord
ing to a bulletin of the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis. Recent investigation
has shown that in only nine cities,
Washington, Dallas, Tex, Richmond,
Va, Poughkeepsie, N. Y, Detroit,
Mich, Maiden, Mass, Salem, Mass,
Saginaw, Mich, and Knoxville, Tenn,
are special text books being used or
lectures being given about tuberculo-
sis. In three states and one territory,
Michigan, Massachusetts, North Caro-
lima and Porto Rico, laws have been
passed requiring that instruction
about the nature and methods of pre-
vention of tuberculosis be given in all
public schools. In Tennessee the
state department of education has re.
quested that such instruction be given
and has issued. circulars for this pur.
pose. In New Jersey and West Vir-
ginia wall cards giving instruction
are hung in every schoolroom and the
attention of all children is called to

PRIMARY FIGHT
IN HIGH COURT
Supreme Justices Hear Argu-
mentS in Van AIstine Case.
TEST VALIDITY OF THE ACT
Justices Frequently Interrupt Attor-
neys with ogations-Appel-
Iants Raise Five Points of
UnconstitutionaIity.

Madison.-The supreme court of
Wisconsin heard arguments in the
case of A. B. Van Alstine of Outa-
game county to restrain Secretary OF
State J. A. Frear and State Treasurer
A. H. Dahl from auditing and paying
warrants for expenditures in accord
ance with the provisions of the prl-
mary election law The complainant
alleges that the law is unconstitutional.
The argument consumed nearly five
hours. All of the members OF the
court were present except Associate
Justice W. H. Timlin, who was called
from the city on account of a death Of
a relative.
The six sitting justices frequently
interrupted the attorneys with interrog-
atories regarding points raised, but
both sides seemed well prepared, and
to the best of their ability answered
the questions.
Attorneys Charles F. Lamb of Madi-
son, w. D. Thompson of Racine and j.
Elmer Lehr of Appleton appeared for
the complainant, and Attorney General
II
General T. M. Kearny of Racine was
of counsel for Van Alstine, Russell
Jackson for the state officers. The
courtroom was filled with interested
spectators, mostly from the state uni
versity.
The court adjourned to March Is
when a decision in the case is ex-
pected.
The complaint alleges that the law
is unconstitutional for the following
reasons:
First-Because the act in question
has no validity unless it is in force
and effect by virtue of legislative
power delegated by the legislature to
the voters of this state.
SecondABecause the act in question
is a general law and was never pub
lished after it's final approval by the
voters of this state.
Third-Because the act in question
abridges the right of the people peace
ably to assemble and consult for the
common good.
Fourth-Because the act in question
unlawfully and unreasonably limits the
rights of candidates for office in secur-
ing support from voters and the rights
of voters to participate in the selection
of candidates for office.
Fifth-Because the act in question
operates to coerce the judgment and
discretion of the legislature in choos-
ing United States senators, and unlaw-
fully regulates the manner of choos-
ing such senators, and operates to Sc
cure their election by popular vote.

Business of State Banks Grows.

An increase of over 100000 in the
business of state banks of Wisconsin
is shown in comparative statement
issued by Commissioner of Banking M.
c. Bergh, covering the period of ten
weeks prior to January 81, 1910.
Ten new banks were established dur
ing that period, bringing the total up
to 4S3. This caused a large increase
in the total capital stock. Deposits of
various kinds, including checking ac-
counts, demand and time certificates
and savings, deposits increased in the
aggregate almost 100000 during the
ten weeks covered by the compilations.
This is one of the most remarkable in
creases of deposits ever shown by
Wisconsin banks and indicates en-
phatically the present prosperity of
the commonwealth.
Loans and discounts increased over
$3,000,000 Surplus funds grew sub
stantially. Decrease in liabilities un-
der the head of undivided profits in
the sum of $845, 1884 indicates that
the bankers availed themselves of the
opportunity offered by multiplying de-
posits to divide the profits which &C.
crue i'll the business.

Army Maneuvers at Sparta.

The adjutant generals department
has received word from the war de-
partment at Washington that the
maneuvers of the regular army of the
department of the lakes and the
militia of those states, including Wis
consin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio and Kentucky will be held in
September on the government range
at Sparta.
During the maneuvers from 10000
to 10000 troops will be on the range
and as many as 5000 or 5000 at one
time.
There is an appropriation bill pend
ing before congress for the extension
of the range for rifle practice and the
progress of the bill is being followed
with much interest in Wisconsin as
possibly affecting the use to be made
by the government of the range at
Sparta.

Profit of $500 an Acre.

The truth about fruit growing in
Wisconsin is told in a 24-page pamph-
let just issued by the State Horticul-
tural society, and Wisconsin is given
great boost. Five hundred dollars
an acre is the sum reported for the
cherry crop at Sturgeon Bay last year
Apples in Richland county are shown
to be worth as much as 1921 per acre
for a series of years. The opportuni-
ties in Wisconsin for fruit raising are
shown to be as good as in any other
state east or west Land can be bought
in Wisconsin, an orchard planted
thereon and brought to profitable
bearing for one-fourth to one-half the
price asked for western irrigated or
chard tracts, says the bulletin.

Cannot Retain Fees.

That clerks of circuit courts in Wis
consin who, pursuant to law, have
been placed upon salary basis of
compensation, may not retain fees al
lowed to them by the federal statutes
is declared to be the law by the SUI
preme court of Wisconsin.
The opinion holds that the statute
of the state, under which the clerk of
the court was placed upon a salary
basis and required to pay all fees into
the county treasury, is as broad as it
we'll may be, intended to make the sal
airy in full for all purposes.

May Prod Oil Inspectors.

State Oil Inspector Tracy of Milwau
kee is on the war path against in
spectors who are inactive and are I'M
able to discover violations of the law
in their sections.
He has written to Secretary Doty of
the civil service commission, asking
him for an eligible list which indicates
that he is likely to discharge some of
the men under him who have not been
earning their salaries.
The inspector believes there have
been violations of the law and con-
siders it easy to find them and to pro-
duce sufficient evidence to cause con-
viction.

State Land Office Moves.

At last beginning has been made
toward the occupancy of the new east
wing of the state capitol, though the
preparation was not entirely complete.
The state land Office has moved into
temporary quarters on the south side,
first floor, and it will not be long be-
fore other departments may be trans
ferred
The work of finishing in the wing
has progressed tardily during the win
ter on account of failure of the rail-
roads to deliver material, particularly
marble for the walls and floors. In
fact, much of this work remains yet to
be done, but material is now arriving
and the work will progress more rap
idly.
The rooms for the executive cham
Der and officers will probably not be
ready for occupancy for couple of
months. The completion of the equip
ment of the subway from the new
heating plant and the connection of
the plant with the statehouse, SEIZED
uled last fall for January 1, will prob
ably be accomplished by April 1. Again
the delay was the failure of the rail-
roads to deliver pipe and fittings.
Meanwhile the work of demolition
of the central portion goes slowly for
ward and by the time the crocuses
bloom the wing will be ready for the
excavators and builders. Then COM
munication between the wings through
devious intricacies of the old sub
terranean passageway will be cut off
forever

Take Allen to Prison.


Philip Allen, Jr., wrecker Of the
First National bank of Mineral Point,
whose acts of frenZied finance ruined
hundreds of depositors, was taken to
the federal prison at Fort Leaven-
worth, Kan. He is under sentence of
ten years
The decision to get Allen out of the
way now, instead of holding him I'M
til the calling Of the conspiracy cases
against President Calvert Spensley
and others, was made as result of
discoveries of secretly written letters,
in which Allen attempted to frame up
deals against the receivers for his es-
tate, the Central Wisconsin Trust
Company of Madison, with the pur-
pose of concealing stocks and retain
ing them in the name of relatives.
The letters now in the hands of the
attorneys for the trustee were inter-
cepted by Sheriff John P. Halbach.
The letters and the spirit that
prompted the writing offer sidelight
on Aliens character that in the light
of past professions of good faith by
Allen have astonished and Disguised
the officials and attorneys interested.
1t was this discovery of his secret
dealings even while in his Jail cell
that brought upon Allen hurriedly
prepared trip to Fort Leavenworth.
