EXCEEDINGLY THANKFUL.

The people of Wisconsin have
reason to be exceedingly thankful
that the legislature has adjourned
and to sincerely hope that we may
never have another of the like
character. 1t was dominated by
an element entirely at variance
with the interests of the people
an element that created thirteen
commissions or boards, in addition
to what we already have, to eat up
the peoples money. There seems
to be but one remedy to change
existing conditions in the state and
that is, to turn the state admins
tration over to another party, re-
peal half of the laws which now
cumber the state statues, abolish a
a lot of unnecessary Offices and
commissions, and to reduce the
salaries of officials to- basis
which will correspond with those
paid in business establishments. -
Watertown Leader.
Add to the above indictment that
the Legislature was dishonest en-
ough to pass an income tax law
exempting all official salaries and
including all other salaries and you
have fair measure of what kind
of men composed the working
majority. Then think that they
appropriated to the University a
million and eighty-four thousand
dollars and practically did nothing
to help and improve, the common
schools of the state and you have
another measure. The reason tor
this favoritism is not far to seek.
The Legislature and Administra-
ton are dominated by the La
Toilette faction. The University
has become a recruiting station for
that faction; the common schools
are not. So the peoples money
goes the way of the largest good to
the La Toilette faction, Some of
these blind La Folletites may yet
squeal a little about tax paying
time. 1t is big price to pay, we
know, but University politics come
high.
The real trouble lies in the
voters, surrendering the use OF
their private Judgment blindly to
the purposes and behests of the
factional politics. The WATERFOWL
Leader sees no relief from such in
tolerable abuses and burden Of
such intolerable taxation save in
the overthrow of the faction itself
by bringing the Democrats into
power. If the Democratic leaders
of Wisconsin are wise men and can
see the signs of the time they
never had so strong a chance for
control of the state as in the near
future.
The dumping upon the people OF
, the state of a lot of untried ex-
periments in legislation as we'll as
being the most expensive session
ever held in Wisconsin; together
with the University and other
appropriations, will create Pan
dora box of trouble, in the future.
There is democratic stump
speech in about every act of that
legislature. Add to all that the
treason to the Republican party in
Congress by La Toilette and we
have cloud of political discontest

THOUGHTS BY THE WAY.

Several of the witnesses against
Senator Lorimer in the investiga-
ton now in progress at Washing
ton have admitted under the oath
the lied in the frame-up against
the senator particularly White and
Beckmeyer and the confession sold
the Chicago Tribune by White was
tissue of falsehood. He also ad-
mitted, that he attempted to black
mail Lorimer; but he would not
stand for it. Under the present
conditions the investigating COM
mittee have but one course to per-
sue; exonerate Lorimer who should
at once, begun an action against
the Tribune for libel.

worst boss ridden state imagin-

Last week, Congressman Under
wood speaking in the house of rep
resentatives gave Bryan a drub-
bing, that no doubt caused him to
scratch his head and wonder If he
is as great a prevaricator as was
stated by the speaker in sgood
strong English. The trouble with
Bryan, as it is with men of his
class, is, that all men are dishon-
est and are not to be trusted if
they do not subscribe to their po-
litical idiocy and they feel justi-
fed in lying about them.

This is true both on account of dis

~he will, in all probability, be in Wash

Senator Terrell has left his bed
and is able now to walk little

him to go into that office without

If the Legislature, in which there
is known to be majority of Smith

spite of his being governor, nobody
seems to have any question that he
would take the job, and that is the
way lots of people are looking for
it to go.
Such a denouement would, of
course, mean another election for

trouble to find plenty Of Georgians
