LEVI AND We.

"Stand by your fellow men. Do unto others
as ye would that they should do to you. Have
confidence in your neighbor, don't distrust
him.
This was the keynote of three speeches
which Judge Levi Ell. Bancroft Of
Richland Center made Wednesday
night in formally opening the campaign
in Milwaukee. Judge Bancroft also
opened his campaign for the nomina
ton for attorney general. He preached
a doctrine of love, not hate, to his
auditors, urging them to turn a deaf
ear to those who go about the land
slandering others and creating doc
trine of suspicion and distrust-Mil-
waukee Sentinel.
The doctrine of love is all rigat. It
is the greatest and best Of doctrines.
But it should be remembered that the
great Divine Teacher of Love, the
Savior of Mankind, scourged the money
changers out of the temple. To drive
out of their political temples the men
who stand for special privileges rather
than for equal rights is the work set
before the American people at this time.
They should do it thoroughly. It ill
becomes Speaker Bancroft, of senatorial
election investigation notoriety, to go
about pleading for confidence in your
neighbor. Confidence betrayed creates
distrust

of Wisconsin. Sufficient pure seed,
including Wisconsin No 7, No. 1 and
No. IL corn and pedigreed barley, has
been sent out to enable 10000 young
people to enter grain.
The great popularity of these contests
among the young people is shown by
the rapidity with which the young
folks have taken up with the idea.
Bugun in 1907 with few contests and
about 500 boys growing grains the
movement grew until during the sum-
mer of 1909, AZ contests were held at
which over $4,000 in prizes were awar-
ded. Over $4,000 young people took
seed to grow and show. Not all of
these grew grain which they considered
fit to display but the contests attracted
over 5000 entries of corn and 1000
entries and barley of high grade.
Nearly all of the county fairs are
this year Offering scholarships as the
first prize. These scholarships carry
the funds to pay the expenses of the
prize winner to attend the Boys Course
in Grain Growing given in the College
of Agriculture at Madison during the
Farmers Course in February each
year, Twenty one boys won these
scholarship last year and received the
stimulating instruction in this special
course. .s
The beneficial effects of these courses
are two fold in that they show the
boys and girls the possibilities of good
farming and also get the parents in
terested in better seed grains and
improved agriculture. 1.-The danger of
these boys leaving the farm is greatly
reduced" says Prof. r. A. Moore, who
started these contests, "when they once
see the opportunity to put their best
efforts into it with satisfactory returns.
The way to reach the old people is
also through the young folks

False Hydrophohia.

Lyssophobia means false hydropho-
bia. A medical student in Asia was
deeply bitten at the base of the thumb
by a rabid dog. While under treat
ment at the Pasteur institute in Ka-
sanli. India. only eight days after be-
ing bitten symptoms of hydrophobia
suddenly developed. His aspect was
one of frightful terror; his eyes were
widely stretched. he showed great fear
and went into commissions at the
sight of water. The case seemed true
hydrophobia of the worst sort. but
true hydrophobia never comes under
twelve days. He was partly forced
to take fifteen grains of choral. slept
five hours. woke up much better and
was we'll at night.

Philadelphia North American: There
is striking analogy between the pres
ent day Insurgency and the English
insurgency that cost Charles 1 his head
in 1919. Identical causes may be traced
in each instances
Charles sought to subvert representa-
tive government that he might strength
en- the power of the special interests of
his day. He tried to establish vested
rights in the privilege of extortion. He
tried to found monopolies in the neces-
sites of the people.
And the people became Insurgents,
rose up and cut his head off. 1t was
not protest against monarchy as such.
That was shown when England restored
Charles son, an infinitely more unsavo-
~ man, judged merely by his personal
conduct.
But from that day to this there has
never been another attempt to establish
in England private monopolies in the
things the people must buy. 1t would
be mighty dangerous business.
But in this country more than $50
years after England abolished monopo-
lies forever the people are staggering
under load of such special privileges,
established by representatives and SEN
ators and judges who betrayed their
trusts from the people.
Men have sat in the upper house of
congress for years without any pretense
at representing a state. They were Oil
senators or sugar senators Or rubber
senators. One who had a seat for a
generation was VIGOROUSLY the repre-
sentative of the express trust. Our own
state has conscientiously returned
another to represent the Pennsylvania
railroad in the United States govern
ment.
In the lower house the situation has
been similar, though not so conspicuous.
Even the courts have been smirched.

Lottery Methods.

An English writer declares that
financial morality, imperfect as it Is in
our day, is superior to that Of the
epoch that came to an end In 1926
with the abolition OF lotteries. Take
single instance. Lord North in 1779,
while the American war Of Independ-
ence was In progress, issued 10000
lottery tickets. 10000 Of which were
given as brides to members Of parlia-
ment.
