Ne,vs Notes of Wisconsin

Neenah.- In eNcavat1ng Tor the
new Northwestern road bridge in this
city, old timbers have been brought
to light which even most OF the
old timers could not account for.
They are all that remains OF the
guard locks on this branch OF the
Fox river which were in evidence IN
the late sos that did service IN
maintaining navigation from Lake
Winnebago to Green Bay. They can
never be restored, but today would
be worth millions to this city. AT
that time Neenah had no use for nav
igation and when the railroad came
it built bridge across that part OF
the river, closing up effectually all
navigation through Neenah between
the lake cities to the south and Green
Bay.
Columbus.-Thisc city boasts Of the
three Oldest brothers in Wisconsin.
They are John, Alfred and Samuel
Hasey, "a, SO and 80 years old. John
Hasey came to- Columbus in 1874,
settling on a farm about three miles
out of the city. His brothers came
year later Another brother was
killed thirty years ago on the Rock
Island road. They take an active in
terest in the affairs of the town, and
may be seen on the streets daily.
Each of them weighs 200 pounds or
over.
Superior that he was
never mustered out of the service,
A. N. Lent, commander of Alonzo
Palmer post, G. A. r., Of this city,
who was first lieutenant in the Nine
ty-second Indiana volunteers during
the civil war, has presented claim
to the war department for $4,000
he claims is due him as salary and
interest up to the present time. Mr..
Lent has just been notified that he
has been allowed claim for $685. 40,
salary due him for services rendered
as quartermaster to his regiment
from Sept. to Nov. IS, 1862.
Superior.-Efforts to get the state
to establish a demonstration farm on
land now held by the city within the
corporation limits, it is stated, are
about to be successful. The city has
already agreed to give long time
free lease to the state of ten acres
Dean Russell of the agricultural col
lege has given assurances that an ex-
pert will be sent to the city to take
charge. The tract would be used for
showing actual results rather than in
experimenting, and because of it's ac-
feasibility from the main business
section would be a great aid in Sc
curing settlers for the county who
come here looking for land.
Marinette-Albert Lindquist, a
fisherman, has confessed to the Esca-
naba police that he was present on
the night of Oct. IS, when Albert
Fogarty, aged 81, was murdered by
Daniel Mccarthy Mccarthy and
John Linquist are also held as sus-
poets. The body of Fogarty was
found in the bay. Robbery is sup
posed to have been the motive for
the murder.
Madison.-The 1911 session OF
the legislature required only one
third as many employees as the ses-
sion Of 1901 and the average cost for
clerical help has been reduced As
per cent in the last five years, or
since the installation of the civil ser
vice system.
Sheboygan.-Mrs. George Grass
horn of this city racant1v roturnnd
from Lake Butte des Morris with a
string of fifteen ducks of her own
shooting. She accompanied her hus-
band on a weeks trip an captured
many more ducks.

THE NASHVILLE PRIMARY.

While the vote cast in the Howse
primary in Nashville was not up tc
the expectations of the machine sup
porters it was sufficient to justify
The Herald's pessimism regarding
the outcome of the contest there for
clean government. None but white
voters participated in the primary
and yet nearly half of the registered
voters of the city voted in 1t. Add
to the number who participated in
the machines election the negro
vote and it is not a difficult matter
to figure out a majority for the ma
chine in the regular election.
OF course not every voter in the
primary will vote for Howse and his
ticket. There were doubtless num-
Der who voted in the primary for
some personal friends who happened
in October But comparatively speak
ing the number will not be large.
The lines were too closely drawn and
too much of an effort had been made
to keep voters away from the cleo
to be a candidate for minor Office
who will vote for the decent ticket
ton.
On the whole the prospects are not
encouraging for the good government
advocates in the capital city. Much
as Nashville needs a general reuse
cleaning; much as we may deplore
the vice and crime and depra,ity
that is Haunted in the faces Of the
decent people Of the State through
the official connivance OF the City's
executive, there is little evidence OF
a coming change. The people have
not become sufficiently aroused to
the necessity for a cleaning up. They
have not experienced that moral av-
akening that viii be necessary for
the regeneration of the city.
In spite OF the gloomy outlook and
the discouraging prospect the fight
in Nashville should continue unabat-
ed. Seeds may be sown this time
that will hear fruit some future day
for Just as surely as the Sun shines
the time will come vheu large mai
orlty Of the voters O. Nashville will
utterly repudiste an ADMINISTRATION

have been potent factors In infuenc'
ing the minds of the people in the
last two campaigns His promotion
to chief editor is a most merited re-
cognition of his capable and emerge
tic work.
Mr.. Baskette, whom he succeeds,
is one of the best known writer's In
the State. Unlike Mr.. Yancey ne is
an ultra conservative. His editor
ials, while clothed in the choicest
diction and are models of correct
English, lack that clearness, direct
ness and earnestness that are char
acteristic of Mr.. Yancey's work. 1t
has been we'll known for several
months that Mr.. Baskette was not in
harmony with the editorial policies
of the Banner and his resignation
to accept a position on the editorial
staff Of the alleged Democratic daily
will not occasion great surprise.

SPEEDY JUSTICE.

| Two trials have recently been hell
| Virginia and Tennessee which
should be object lessons to the courts
Of the two States in the speedy ad
ninistration of justice. Less thar
Two months after the murder OF his
wife Beattie was convicted and sen
fenced to pay the death penalty in
virginia. Within less time the muir
ierer Of James L. Miller, at EtoWah
was sentenced to be hanged.
Justice is much more certain where
here are no delays in trials. That is
one of the reasons why comparative
ly few murderers escape in England
and Canada The criminals are fore
ed into trial and while they are Civ
en- every opportunity to make legal
defense the law is indicated. In
this country as a general rule the
case drags it's weary length through
term after term of court until the
absence or death of material VIII
nesses materially weakens the case
for the State. A striking evidence
of the truth Of this charge is re-
cent miscarriage of justice in Nash
Vile.
Every defendant is entitled to a
tair trial and under the constitution
is guaranteed a speedy trial. But that
is just what great majority Of them
do not want. And the very fact that
In three-fourths of the murder cases
a determined effort is made by the
defense to secure repeated post
ponements should be sufficient EVIL
dence to prove the danger of delays
to the State. The chances for con-
viction are much greater where the
trial is held within reasonable
length of time after the crime is COM
nitted And the cost to the State
tor the administration of justice is
assuredly much less where the de-
lays are few.
People have too little confidence in
he courts. And this lack Of conf
dence Is too often fully justified.
Nothing will do more to restore 1t
and to make certain the administra-
ton of justice than prompt trials like
the Beattie case in Virginia and the
Miller case in Tennessee.

IN MAINE.

II was a close call but the prohibi
tionjsts won out In the Maine cleo
ton. However, as compared with the
majority for prohibition twenty-sever
years ago, the returns indicate de
cided change of sentiment amon5 the
voters Of Maine upon this question
In 1884 prohibition was written into
the constitution by majority OF over
$4,000. It has been retained bv a
bare majority.
The result is somewhat of a sur
prise to those familiar with the con-
ditions in Maine. From the election
there last year one would naturally
have thought that the dominant SEN
timent of the State was against the
retention of constitutional prohibi-
ton. The Democrats won sweeping
victory in last years State election
on the issue that they would resub-
nit and reopen the liquor question
and it is a little difficult to under
stand the result this year in view OF
the overwhelming victory of the Dem
ocrats just one year ago. However.
it is plain that there were many who
desired to again submit the question
who were supporters of the amend
ment
The result is far from decisive.
Like the close vote in Texas it does
not settle the question for any defl-
mite period. The agitation is sure to
be renewed by the liquorites and
doubtless it will be only few years
until the question is again voted
upon. The constitution of Maine is
easily susceptible to amendment so
that putting prohibition into the or
ganic law does not appear to have
served any useful purpose.
1t is evident that we are going to
have the vexatious liquor question
with us for a long time yet to ccme.
So-called settlements" do not settle
the issue. Like Banquo's CHEST it
will not down. And until we can
invoke the aid of the .
Federal government in the enforce
nent of the prohibition statutes there /
will be a large element of genuine /
temperance advocates who seriously
loubt the success of statutory or con-
stitutional prohibition as a real tenn
oerance promoter.
Stree the above was put in type
alter returns indicate that che vets
won the Maine victory by small
margin.

as matter of fact there is never a
time on the well ordered farm, where
system is employed, that there is not
something to be done, the doing of
which will ultimately prove to the
profit of the farmer. There is a job
for every hour of every day on six
days of every week. Close attention
to details, the strictest regard for
business rules and constant applica-
ton, the keeping everlastingly at
it, will yield to the farmer a larger
measure of returns than will the
same virtues bring in most any 9th.
er line of human endeavor
It is great mistake to quit work
when it rains. 1t may be too wet to
pillow or hoe, but there is always work
at the barn that can be profitably
done then, or the time can be en-
ployed in getting the wood supply.
Farming is a successful business
where anything like the same brains.

and attention are given to it that

EDITOR YANCEY.

The announcement of Richard H.
Yancey's promotion to be editor of
the Nashville Banner will be most
gratifying news to his numerous
friends and admirers among the
newspaper men of Tennessee. While
not generally known to the people of
Tennessee, the members of the fourth
estate have long known and recogniz-
ed Mr.. Yancey as one of the aelest
editorial writer's of the State ard a
worker of interchangeable energy.
There is not a better informed writer
in the State than Mr.. Yancey. He is
a walking compendium of useful in
formation. His knowledge of cur
rent events is by no means confined
to political affairs, though he is at
his best when discussing questions
of State, but he is well versed upon
all affairs of public interest. In
short he has that wide range of in
formation and that knowledge of lit
erature which are so essential in a
we'll equipped newspaper writer.
Mr.. Yancey is in thorough harmo-
ny with the editorial policies of the
Banner. in fact for the past two
years he has written practically all
Of the editorials upon State and To-
cal affairs that have appeared in that
paper. And there have not appeared
in any paper in the State ADLER, bet
ter written or more intelligent dis
cussians Of public affairs than the ed
itorials Of the Banner during the last
two years. His editorial work, his
broad and comprehensive knowledge
of the conditions Of the state AID

ier all motherhood is woman's high
j ,st mission. Few will agree that
Lillian knows anything about the
subject that she is discussing never

rectness of her conclusion. She has
tried the vain pleasures of life, the
glare and the glamour of the foot

CHEST perfection, develop and bring
Jut all of the inherent greatness OF
her nature until she has experienced
the pains and the joys of mother
hood. 1t typifies all that is noblest
and best in the human race. There
is no love comparable to mothers
love. There is no love so free from
selfshness, from self-seeking, so
pure as that which the mother gives
to her offspring. And it is this that
brings out in woman those qualities
which prove her superiority to nan.
There is something wrong with the
woman who has never felt the long
Ing for maternity. And the same
can be said of the man who has

into the image of Almighty Cod 1t
Is then that he realizes what life
really means. And no woman has
attained unto her highest perfection
until she has clasped her own to her
breast and felt its dependence upon
her for life. Lillian Russell is right.
Motherhood is woman's highest DUTY
and greatest pleasure.

KEEPING AK 1T.

Commissioner Peck, of the State
Department of Agriculture, is writing
some very helpful and interesting
letters for the farmers of Tennessee
They deserve to be carefully read
and there are few farmers who can
not proftably take the advice that
the commissioner is giving them.
The newspapers should cooperate
with the department in giving the
widest possible publicity to these ar
ticles.
One in particular that will impress
itself upon the average farmer of in.
telligence and observation, is the ad.
vice not to procrastinate. In no bus
mess in the world is so heavy a toll
paid to procrastination as in the
farming business. There is not
city or town business that would not
go into bankruptcy in one season if
it were run with the slip shod and in
different methods that characterize
many of the farmers of this country.
1t is common failing with the
farmers to put off until the next day
what can be done today. They do
not keep everlastingly at it and that
is the price of almost all success.
Delays are dangerous in any business
and in none more than in farming
and stock raising. There is a time
for every class of work on the farm
and if it is not doue at that particu-
lar time it can never be so well done
at any other time. There is a time
for attention to cattle and the hogs
and the horses. Many diseases are
invited because the farmer delays in
applying the remedies that will or
dinarily prevent until it is too late.
People talk about the drudgery of
farm life as though it was the one
business in the world that required |
constant application. On the contra |
~ we might say that it is the one !
business il the world that will yield |
a fairly comfortable competence |
constant application. Mer-
chants must look carefully after the |
details Of their business six days ev-
cry week, ffty-two weeks every year.
The same thing is true of the manu-
factureT and the miner and the bank
er and the newspaper owner. And
when the waking hours are not of
sufficient length to accomplish the
days task a draft must be made on
the night time.
The farmer works hard while he
works but as a general thing he does
not work every day. He goes to
town on an average one day a week.
He makes every election and pima
ry day a full holiday while his broth
er in the city whom he is foolish
enough to envy, votes hurriedlv be-
tween bites. big meeting" is made
the occasion for days and DAYS Of
continuous holiday. The slightest
change in the weather is made an ex-
cuse for a cessation of labor. When
