FIGHT OVER STATE

LEGISLATURES HOPE TO ES
CAPE TEDIOUS DUTY is
WITHOUT AVAIL.
SEVERAL DISTRICTS TOLOsE
Number of Sections Show Decrease
in Population to Extent That a
Smaller Representation Is lnevits
abIe-Contests Are Expected.

Madison.-On top of all the other
troubles of the legislature will come
an apportionment.
1t had been hoped by members
that they would be able to stave off
an apportionment at this session
The constitution provides that the
assembly districts shall be reappor-
toned after each state and national
census. The session says this shall
be done at the first session" after
the enumeration. The expectations
were that the population of the diff
ferent precincts in the state would
not be received in time for an ap-
portionment to be made, also that
congress would fail to fix the mem
bership of the house of representa-
tives SO as to permit of a congress
sional apportionment being made.
Now that the census reports have
been received and congress is about
to fix the membership of the house
it is admitted there is no way in
which the legislature can escape re-
apportioning the state.
1t is limited that in the matter Of
congressional districts Jefferson may
be taken from the present Second
district and put with the Sixth dis
trict
There is suggestion also that
Lafayette might be taken from the
First to fill up the gap in the Third
district, caused by the taking away
of Juneau county.
AS to senatorial and assembly dis
tricts it seems certain that some of
the southern counties will lose as
semblymen to those in the middle
northern part of the state where
the growth in population has been
the greatest.
For one thing the three assembly
districts in Rock county may be COM
bined in two Columbia, Waupaca,
Eau Claire, and several other coun-
ties, are below the unit for two as
sembly districts and may have to give
up one.
That there will be hearty objec-
tions from the members from those
districts is certain and the result will
be many hard fights before a work
able adjustment is reached.

SCRATCHED TILL BLOOD RAN

when my boy was about three
months old his head broke out with a
rash which was very itchy and ran a
watery fluid. We tried everything we
could but he got worse all the time,
till it spread to his arms, legs and
then to his entire body. He got so
bad that he came near dying. The
rash would itch so that he would
scratch till the blood ran, and thin
yellowish stuff would be all over his
pillow in the morning. I had to put
mittens on his hands to prevent him
tearing his skin. He was so weak
and run down that he took fainting
spells as if he were dying. He was
almost skeleton and his little hands
were thin like claws.
"He was bad about eight months
when we tried Cuticura Remedies.
had not laid him down in his cradle
in the daytime for long while.
washed him with Cuticura Soap and
put on one application of Cuticura
Ointment and he was so soothed that
he could sleep. You don't know how
glad I was he felt better. It took one
box of Cuticura Ointment and pretty
near one cake of Cuticura Soap to
cure him. l think our boy would have
died but for the Cuticura Remedies
and | shall always remain firm
friend of them. There has been no
return of the trouble shall be glad
to have you publish this true state
ment of his cure" (Signed) Mrs. M.

TESTIMONY IS OF A
CONTRADICTORY NATURE

VITERBo. Italy, Aug 31.-Testi,
mony presented at today's session of
the Camorra trial was of a contradic.
tory nature. The son of a porter at
the house of Maria Stendardo was the
first witness called. IT was at this
woman 8 house, the carabineers allege,
that the assassins Of Genarro and his
wife changed their clothes and washed
their hands to remove all tell tale
marks received in the commission of
the crime.
The witness confirmed the statement
by the carabineers that Nicolo Nora
and Giuseppe Salyi, two Of the six ac-
tual assassins, visited the Stendardo
house on the night of June 5, 1906, the
date of the crime. The boy declared
that the woman sent him with a parcel
supposed to contain blood stained
clothes to the house Of another Camor~
rist.
The police and night watchman as.
serted that Nora was not at the STEM
dardo house that night. The remain.
der of the sitting was taken up with
other conflicting testimony regarding
Cuoccolo' ring, which the carabineers
say they found in Salvi's house, and
with prison gossip concerning alleged
confessions of guilt made by some of
the prisoners

FREE OPINION GIVEN
BY COL. ROOSEVELT

NEW YORK, Aug. 51.-The pro.
posed new charter for New York City,
especially that part Of which increases
the powers of the mayor, is attacked
by Theodore Roosevelt in an editorial
published today in the Outlook.
1.-THE methods Of imposing q char
ter says Colonel Roosevelt, "upon
people Of New York-it would be a
rank absurdity to speak of the process
as granting a charter to the people of
New York-by those in power at AL
bany Unfortunately the events Of the
past session have made most men feel
that this is merely a roundabout way
of saying those in control of Tammany)
give an almost ideal illustration of how
not to act in the matter of self govern
ment. -
The former president objects particu-
larly to the provision for increasing
the mayors authority over the finances
and education systems of the city and
to taking away the governors power
to remove the mayor upon charges. He
also finds fault with what he terms
''the method Of thrusting the charter
upon the city," and contrasts these
methods with the wide agitation and
publicity that preceded the adoption of
a constitution by Arizona and New
Mexico, which contain together not
much more than one-tenth Of the popu.

Realizing that future combats will be

practice at range less than 5000 Yards
more than FIVE miles. The maximum
ranges Of the practice will be $4,000

Instead Of holding the practice for tho
TWO or three days, as has been tho GUS

the programme over n period OF two
weeks In order that the battleships may
be gure TO encounter rough weather. It
is desired that the ships work under bad
weather conditions. when rain. mist and
fog create all kinds OF difficulties. IL Is
argued that the sailor cannot choose his
time or conditions OF battle and for that
reason the elementary exercises Of the
