STORY.

Madison, July 26.-Fines amounting
to $4S5 with costs of $247.S6, making
total of s7S2S6, are reported by
Game Warden George w. Rickeman
for the week ending yesterday.
Most of the prosecutions and con-
victions were for illegal fishing, either
as to methods or for taking of under
sized fish. Two, however, were for
violation of the state law relating to
setting of fins. These offenders were
0. G. Bendieux and NJ. Miller Of
Price county. They were convicted
and fined, the former $40 and the lat
ter $25.
One &. F. Chittenberg, a resident
of Chicago, alderman of that city and
candidate for sheriff of Cook county,
Illinois, was arrested by Warden Bur-
get in Walworth county and the case
WAS adjourned to July q. The offense
for which Gutenberg was arrested
was that of making a false statement
regarding his residence. The otfense,
it is alleged, was committed last year
and upon his return this week the
warden nabbed him.
Mayor Bert" Rynden of Amigo
and Frank Hoffman, hotel keeper of
that city, are among the victims OF
the wardens. They are charged with
illegal netting in Langlade county
and the cases Were Oh trial before
Justice Fuller at Amigo yesterday.
Although Warden Rickeman is busy
he finds time occasionally to listen
to tales of fish as recorded in the an
nails of jewellers upon the lake shores
or along the river banks. One Of the
latest comes from Trempeleau county
and is of monster that has terror
lied dwellers upon the classic shores
of the father of waters. Fishermen
and launch parties at Trempealeau
and UP and down the river near there
have reportd visions of this monster
and many and varied are the tales
that have been told during the past
two months. The monster has been
described as from the size of the reg
ulation sea-serpent to that of the lar
gest whale that spouts upon the bosom
of old ocean. But at last the mys-
terry has been solved and the peace
of mind of superstitious habitants re-
stored.
High and dry on a sandbar in Tren1-
pealeau, the carcass of a huge gar,
five feet long, lies bleaching in the
| sun. Warden Rickeman says that
fishermen residing in the village de-
clare it is a baby whale or alligator
which has been frightening people
along the river during the past two
months. The appearance of the big
| fish indicates it was either washed up
on the bar by the waves of a passing
steamboat or was left in a shallow
pool by the fall of the water and was
unable to get back to the main river.
However it met it's fate, the death
of the big fish has caused rejoicing in
Trempealeau and vicinity, for since
the news spread that some mammoth
denizen of the deep was lurking in
the Mississippi in this vicinity many
tiinid persons have not dared to go
out III small boats for fear the whale
or alligator would capsize the skiff or
poke its big head into the boat and
make lunch out Of two or three of
the occupants
The dead gar is said to be the
largest fish ever seen in that section

RepubIicanism of Insurgency.

The republican party was born OF
the spirit of progress and freedom.
When the temper of standing pat has
prevailed the party has lost ground
with the people. When the mood OF
marching forward has dominated,
republicanism has generally received
Endorsement from the voters. The
insurgent within the organization
has been it's political salvation.
Senators Beveridge and Cummins,
Representative Norris and Poindex-
ter and other progressive represen-
tatives and senators are insurgent re-
publicans who are regular republi-
cans. Every insurgent congressman
has been regularly nominated, elect
ed by republican votes and recog-
nized by the regular leaders as re-
publican members of congress. All
of these congressional insurgents
participate in the republican eau
cuses, in the election Of republican
members of the congressional COM
mittees and in originating republican
legislation.
Such republicans, however insur-
gent and progressive, can not be
read out of their party. President
Taft, the republican leader, pro-
claimed this publicly only six weeks
ago. Senator Lorimer, regular re-
publican who owes his senatorship
to disregard of the republican pri-
maries in Illinois and to democratic
votes, may well ponder on it. Speak
err Cannon, whom the republican
regulars in March kept in the chair
only by the aid of democratic con-
gressmen, should mediate over it.
Certain republicans in Washington
need to realize that republican in
surgency or progressiveness is re-
publican regularity.
The people realized it long ago;
republican leaders have for year
and more told republicans who OPP
pose progressive policies to stay at
home. They have said that insur-
gent congressman who try to i'm
prove republican measures when
they seem not to protect the people
sufficiently are no Benedict Arnolds
of republicanism. The progressives,
or insurgents, are with the party,
ana the republican voters are with

SOME PECULIAR TANGLES.

1t is rather remarkable how dem
ocrats and republicans have got tan
gled up with each other in some in
stances in the last decade. Just be-
cause a few democrats got tangled
UP with republicans in Illinois last
fall and elected Lorimer to a seat
in the United States senate instead
of Hopkins who had the largest fol-
lowing when the voters of Illinois
expressed their preference at the pri-
mary, the Sucker state has a legis-
lative scandal on its hands. There
was a tangle in Oregon couple of
years ago and the country was treat
ed to the unusual spectacle of seeing
a republican legislature elect dem
ocrat to the United States senator
ship. But the after results in Ore
gan are tame compared to those
which have developed in Illinois.
These homespun, unsophisticated
Oregonian legislators were old fash
toned enough to believe that the
Oregon voters knew whom they
wanted for United States senator
and they just ratified the popular
choice. If a few of the members
of the legislature had gotten tOgeth-
er and had framed up a deal in or
der to show how closely allied poll
tics and big business are, Oregon
might now be in the lime-light with
a sulphurous smell emitting from be-
hind the scenes as is Illinois and
New York.
Voters usually have short memoir
les but those who can think a few
years back will remember that the
most important measure passed while
Roosevelt was president was the
railroad bill which, among other
things. forbade railroads giving re-
bates to large and preferred ship
pers. 1t will be remembered that
it was with the aid of democratic
votes that this measure was enabled
to pass the senate. 1t might be well
to reread the vote on that measure
to see whether this bunch Of Aldrich
standpatters who are such loyal re-
publicans had anything to do with
placing this important measure or
Roosevelt's administration on the
statute books. 1t might be well to
review the history of every import
ant measure which has been before
congress in the past ten years in
which the public interest was in
volved and see whether the men OF
the LaFollette or the Dolliver stamp
were for it or against it. Which
bunch is doing the most to make the
railroad bill now before the senate
a measure to protect the public in
terest, the Aldrich crowd or the So
called "insurgent" crowd? Which
crowd is it that has forced the re-
Aention of the Sherman antitrust
feature of the bill, which crowd Is
making the fight for the clause pro-
-vfding for the physical valuation of
railroads so that some tangible ba-
sis for rate making can be made;
which crowd is working in the inter-
ests Of the railroads and which one
in the interests of the people? There
are a good many things taking place
on the political stage today Whlcn
have a tendency to tangle up and
befuddle the voting public unless 1t
does some clear cut thinking ana
takes a comprehensive view of the
nolitical situation. a whole lot OF
people are beginning to think that
there as as close an alliance between
big business and politics as once eX-
listed between politics and the slave
oligarchy.
