Alfred Henry Lewis on the
Protected "IntereStS"

The public has been quick to
recognize that Alfred Henry Lewis
series of articles, entitled Travel
ing with Taft" now running
through HUMAN LIFE, and which
began with the December issue, are
far and away the biggest magazine
feature in recent years, and are, in
fact, little short of revolutionary in
their revealment of secret rascality
in high places.
The following are few of the
points touched on in the February
issue: Will Roosevelt run again
for the presidency? Or, if not the
presidential chair, then what awaits
the return of the lion hunter? Mr.,
Lewis views on both questions
are decidedly interesting if some
what surprising. Incidentally he
lays bare Roosevelt's consuming
ambition.
With sly humor, which bubbles
up everywhere through this article,
| like springs in glade, the writer
| declares his platform on the woman
suffrage question. And if he pro-
poses to tilt no windmills in this
ARRAY it isn't for lack of courage,
but because-and follows the most
unique argument yet heard on the
subject
Mr. Taft's stop at Winona and
how Mr.. Tawney's constituents re-
ceived his tariff eulogy-"the best
revenue measure eyer passed
described. Also how the President
buugled the job in his defense of
Mr. Tawney Off this same Payne
Aldrich tariff Mr.. Lewis turns the
spotlight of his keen analysis, and
sums up the matter in a nutshell
thus: 1T means that the few shall
search the pockets of the many and
steal all save just enough to buy
: the victims bread and cheese"
But perhaps the keenest sword
! thrust of all, the writer plants If
the shield which tariff protection
r throws over the infamous Sugar
/. Trust. 1t lets the broad daylight
in on this subject with an array o
foc+c that shows the annalIinS
clutch of this incubus On ever,
householder IN the land, and be
side which Pharaoh's stunts wit
! the Israelites look like a game o
r ring around a-rosy.
: This series will be continued i
the March issue.

THIRTY-SIX YEARS AGO
Taken from the River Falls

be held at Dill's Hall in Prescott,
on March 16.
John Green has purchased Amos
Saunders interest in the goods at
the store under the firm name of
Saunders & Green, and will con-
tinue the business at the old stand.
Mr.. Green has been in trade in this
village a large share of the time
ST ice 1845, nearly twenty years.
At the meeting of the ST. Croix
Musical Association held here last
Tuesday G. W. Nichols was made
temporary chairman and Mr.. Otis

pected to be present, and a "glo-
rious sing" may be expected.

GEORGE WASHINGTON

A nation never tires of honoring
rhe birth of it's greatest men. The
22nd of Feb. brings 70 us the one
hundred and seventy-eighth ami
versary of the birth of George
Washington and celebrations in his
honor will be held in every section
of this broad land.
Washington was great as the
world measures greatness and there
is a constant calling to mind his
earthly deeds of true greatness. 1t
is true he did not have to struggle
with poverty, as SO many of our
Americans, who have obtained
greatness have done, for his par
ents were wealthy for the time in
which he lived. But his wealth did
not, as is so generally the case,
fasten upon him idle and dissolute
habits. From the beginning of his
career until it's close his life was a
busy and active one, free from vices
of every kind. Indeed, Washington S
morality has ever been held up as
an example for the youth and even
the housing historian has failed in
his attacks upon it. His devotion
TO his country in times of war and
peace are conspicuous features.
His public services as President
were devoid of selfishness and am
bilious motives, free from party
prejudices and prompted by mo-
lives that he believed to be for the
best interests of the nation. In
purity of character and freedom
from vices of every kind, Washing
ton stands as a model for American
youth. His reply to his indignant
father whose impetuous nature was
aroused by the apparent wanton-
ness of the cutting of his favorite
cherry-tree: Father, | cannot tell a
lie; | cut the tree" was a striking
symbolical illu stration of the de-
velopment in boyhood of the char
acter of his manhood. It was not
his public life and services alone
that have given him the command
Jag positions he holds in the affec-
lions of the American people. His
personal character, his unimpeach-
able integrity, the purity of his
motives and the tenor of his whole
private life have HIS much to do
with it.. No better evidence of the
esteem in which he was held by his
contemporaries could be given him
than the fact that the public ooserv-
ance of his birthday began durins
his lifetime This has been true OF
no other American.

At the annual meeting of the
Wisconsin Jersey Breeders associa-
ton held in Agricultural Hall Madi
son, Wis, Feb. 2, two resolutions
were passed that deserve the united
support of the dairymen of this
state. The first asked the legisla-
ture of Minnesota to extend the time
from 80 days to one year in their
law requiring all cattle shipped into
the state to be tested for tubercu-
losis within 80 days before shipment
This law makes it nearly impos-
sible for an honest man to ship into
Minnesota. The second resolution
called upon county and state fair
managers to select cattle judges who
will place the ribbons on dairy cattle
that show capacity for large pro-
duction as we'll as dairy type and
temperament instead of on the small
er animal of fine bone and limited
capacity for production. The fol
lowing officers were elected for the
ensuing year:-Pres., N. 0. Peirce,
River Falls; Vice Pres, E. c. Ia
cobs, Elk Mound; Sec, E. E.

To Make Every Penny Count
Equitable Distributions of Anti
tuberculosis Fund Raised
By Christmas Stamp Sales.

At no time in the history of the
crusade against the white plague in
Wisconsin,, have the active and ar
dent working forces now combined
in one strong organization, the Wis
consin Anti-Tuberculosis Associ-
alton, been so impressed with the
possibilities of the movement and
their responsibility as now. The
general meeting of the association
in Milwaukee recently brought out
most earnest desire to accom-
plish materially benefcent results,
now that the people are awakened
to the meaning of the anti-tuber
culosis movement and have begun
to realize that consumption can not
only be cured and prevented but
wholly eradicated.
About $4,000 was raised by the
sale of Wisconsin Christmas stamps
during December, the actual sale
reported at this time being approx
mate1y 100000. The sple n d
support given by the people of Wis
consin in the stamp campaign has
spurred the members of the asso-
citation to even greater effort than
in the past.
Every penny will be made to
count in wiping out consumption.
To best distribute the funds, it was
decided to budget the funds, so
that certain amount can be set
aside in advance for each project.
This will insure an equitable amount
for each part of the state, placed
where it will do the most good.
Committees were appointed as
follows: Legislative and law en-
forcement: DR.. C. A. Harper, secre-
tary state board of health, chair
man; DR.. J. w. Coon, superintend-
ent Wisconsin State tuberculosis
SanatOr1um; M. ,. Dudgen, Ford
MacGregor, Madison, and DIR. J. J.
McGovern, Milv aukee. Finance:
Oscar J. Greenwald, Milwaukee,
chairman; DR.. E. E Evans, La
Crosse, City superintendent c. G
Pearse, Milwaukee, and others to be
selected. Educational and public
ity: DR.. L e Reber, Prof. w D
Frost, F. A. Huchins, Madison, DR..
j. Beffel, Milwaukee. Membership:
Harvey Dee Brown, Phi. d., Mil
waukee, Chairman. Women's Aux
iltary: Mrs w. J. Shumway, Stev'
ems Point, chairman; Mrs. Francis
Boyd, Milwaukee, Mrs. Florence
Buckstaff, Oshkosh, Mrs Iva Will

Young man, you had better go to
school while you have an opportun-
ity, and thus secure an education
that will enable you to command
more than common wages when you
grow up to manhood. 1t is the fell
lows who play hockey" in their
boyhood who will growl the most
about hard times and work for a
dollar a day. Go to school and go
there to learn and not for the pur-
pose of acting cute in order to
attract the attention of the big
girls"

DR.. Andrew White has discovered
that only one murderer out of seven
ty-four is executed. The wave of
sentimental reform that is sweeping
justice and restraint away is respon-
sible not only for the number of un-
convicted murderers but may also
be held responsible for much of the
crime of the country. Lax laws,
easy evasion of the sentence, warm
prisons and appetizing fare all con-
tribute to make crime attractive.
The hysterical and sentimental re-
formers who are demar ding proba-
tion sentences, forget everything
and everybody but the criminal, and
are oblivous to the fact that the
chief object of conviction and pun.
ishment is to restrain the criminal
impulse of the potential malefactor.
Justice tempered by mercy is ad
mirable, but justice negatived by
Mysteries is the spectacle we see
only too frequently in our courts.

The toll for loss by fires in the
United States during the year OF
1907 amounts to $456, 485, 900 In
these fires 1.443 people were killed
and 1854 other injured. These are
figures upon which to base a public
demand for better building and
better fire protection in this country
which suffers more from fire than
any country in the civilized world

Senator Depew has been appoint
ed to read Washington Farewell
address to the Senate on Washing,
tons Birthday and for once Mr..
Depew is anxious to give full credit
for its authorship. His lavish en-
tertainment of the visiting delega-

paper men for three days makes
it evident that Mr. Depew wants to
postpone his own farewell address
for at least six years.

Tracing laboriously the causes of
the high cost of living to marketing
by telephone, the waste of the
cooks, the bridge playing women
and the employment of delivery
wagons by the retail grocers while
food trusts, cold storage and the
tariff are overlooked, reminds us of
Yankee Doodle who couldn't see
the town for the houses. Let US
reform the extravagant women and
the wasteful cooks but let us also
try not to be diverted from the big
offenders.
