SOcIALISTIc DREAMING

In his address before our university
on Social Reforms In Germany" Count
Johann Heinrich Won Bernstorff" -
why don't the Germans reform their
titles0 made use of the following
words:
"a celebrated German author has
said: Mankind is pitiful, as it has not
even been able to devise a method of
clothing everybody and prote citing
everybody from hunger and thirst.
What wise utterance and what a
wise man this celebrated German auth
or must be.
AS we'll say that God is pitiful, for
He has not yet, with all His wisdom
devised a way that every infant born
into this world shall have an equal
comprehension of how to be clothed
and how to protect itself from hunger
and thirst, when it comes to maturity.
The fact is that these socialistic dream
ers ignore the everlasting differences
in men, in their thrift, industry, fore
sight, ETC., and they rush over to the
far extreme that society by law and
some provision of it's own is bound to
equalize these differences in men and
their conditions that even God can not
equalize. The difficulty is not in the
clothing nor hunger nor the thirst but
in the difference in men in providing
against the suffering these necessities
bring. All the Count Johannas and all
the universities and their spider web
creations and speculations, and all that
socialism may vapour and rant over
cannot and will not do with mankind
what the Creator has found it impossi-
Bile to do-Governor Hoard.

WHAT DID you EXPECT AEYwAY7
The Madison Journal, official state
paper, is making wry faces at the leg
islature. 1t says:
BREWERY LEGISLATURE.
1t came as a distinct shock to large
element of the public that the legisla-
! ture now in session in Madison is a
brewery legislature. The vote on the
| Madison dry zone" bills stirred suspi-
cion among good men. But the slaugh-
ter of the county option bill confirmed
| the first suspicion that the Madison
dry zone" bill was killed because the
legislature is trucking to brewery
wishes, And last, the refusal of the
senate to even permit the people of the
state to express themselves on the
county option measure is, final and
brutal proof that this is a brewery
legislature.
Could there be ranker, more brazen,
more indisputable proof of all this than
that the very legislature W ic h s
framing initiative, referendum and re-
call law should vote down the propo-
sal to permit referendum on county
option?
We may have vote of the people, it
would seem, on bond issues, and state
rdrks nd tweede-de measures, BUT
NOT ON THE LIQUOR QUESTION.
The motives of the politicians now in
the PADDLE are clear enough. The liquor
Interests" like other corrupting lin
terests have no politics. They are for
the faction in power if that faction
will truckle to their Interests. Sen
ator La Toilette and his political cap
talns are not certain that opposing
the saloon would be winning political
card; rather they fear for their contin-
uance in power if they should fight the
saloon.
We can't quite understand what the
Journal is growing about. Does any
sane man or woman expect the present
leaders of the party (who tell the leg
islators what they can and must do) to
break faith with the saloon and brewery
interests when their election was made
sure last fall by that element? Princi-
Piles and the people were sold out in
the primary campaign, and they then
had every reason to know it as thor
oughly as they must now realize it.
The present legislature seems to be
reforming everything and everybody
except the saloon interests. The rea-
son is plain. Orders from headquarters
are never dsobeyed.

DHFkRENcE IN COLOR OF TIE OK

According to the statement of the
managers of the campaign of Prof.
Charles E. Merriam for mayor of Chi
cago, it cost $l62, 486. %, and according
to the Inter Ocean the total spent for
the primary and for the election was
somewhere around $3.50. 200. Some of
the items of the formal statement. ad-
Vertising. $50, 955; salaries and head
quarters expense, S27. $50; ward organ
ization and expense of manning polls,
$40. O67; printing, 49, 25, read very
much like the statements of Wisconsin
primary candidates. All of which goes
to show that progressive reformers
are only shocked by lavish campaign
expenditures, when the money is spe mt

Madison Democrat: The consumution
Of alcoholic drink in the united king
dom last year meant an expenditure Of
$1S5, 100000 by the consumers: but.
while this amount was somewhat higher
than IN 1909, 1t was much less than in
1899 when the British drunk bill was
$3.50, 00o, 900, almost round billion.
The fact Of decreasing consumption
is established also by he marked de-

A Mnman,s Remedy.

Enforcing as well as passing might
not be amiss,' says an exchange in re-
gard to new laws. In that it strikes
the nub of the trouble. The country
has too much law and too little enforce
ment now. And many of the evils for
the correction of which new laws are
being made, could be done away with
by persistent enforcement of the old
laws.
