IMMENSE STATE APPROPRIATIONS
BEING ASKED For

Secretary of State Frear presented
some startling figures to the Wiscon.
sin legislature in his special report to
that body last Wednesday, in which
the appropriation bills already in
troduced and estimates Of revenues to
secretary pointed out that the specific
appropriations over and above existing
demands upon the treasury amount for
the biennial period to 81. $50, O76, and
stated that these appropriations, based
upon present revenues, will cause a
deficit of over four million dollars.
In addition to this there are number
of bills calling for appropriations in
which the amount could mot be as.
certained The report showed that by
changing the tax upon the assessed
valuation from wo-sevenths of a mill
to three eighths Of a mill the uni
versity appropriation would be in
creased 1914, 927. The normal school
authorities think if it is right for the
university to have a tax levy based
upon a fractional mill tax instead Of
specific tax it should also be given
to them, which would call for $457,
1876; there are two items for highway
taxes making an aggregate of $617. 318.
Then there are new state boards and
commissions. increased salaries etc
which pile up the appropriations by
hundreds Of thousands, constituting a
constantly increasing burden upon the
taxpayers entirely out of proportion to
actual needs. Many of the salaries
now paid seem unnecessarily high in
proportion TO the service rendered and
unless halt is called big tax levy
must be the inevitable result. There
is much food for thought in the secre-
Cary report.

DO LESS OF IT OR MORE.

For some vine there has been a con
eroversy in existence between the
newspapers of the country and the
postottica department, says an exchange
as to whether or not the government
is Justified in continuing the custom
on providing printed envelopes for
whoever wishes to pay for them, Il
is claimed Oh behalf of the newspapers
and the job printers Of the United
States that while it may be true that
the government can provide stamped
and printed envelopes as cheap or
cheaper than the printers could pro
vide them. that government competi-
tion with the printers is unfair. It
j undoubtedly true til 1T the govern
ment could do lot of things cheaper
than private corporations can do them
bat it has not yet been thought best to
enter upon the general policy that
would secure such results. 1t has
seemed to the newspapers that if the
government desired to provide some
things cheaper than ordinary business
enterprise can provide them it would be
we'll to select some articles more neces-
saly to those in greatest need OF govern
ment solicitude and assistance. 1t has
also been, stated recently that the post
masters of the United State are inter
ested in the continuance of the govern
ment envelope and of government prIut-
ing and that they are DESTROYS of
measuring strength and influence with
the printers in the contesF. Just
where the inter ests of the postmasters
appears in the transaction is some
thing not now known to the printers
or to the general public, but it may
later develop. In the meantime it
will probably be insisted upon by the
newspapers of the country that either
the government Of the United States
shall limit its business activities in
the direction of competing with
private Industrial operation or shall
very largely add to it.

fever, on the theory that it came
from working in dusty goat pens.
Since the disease is more prevalent
during the months of May, June and
July, when the prevailing wind is from
the south, some of the goat-herders
have located their goat pens on the
north side of their houses to avoid the
dust. The Mexican goat-herders have
long believed that slow fever was due
to drinking unboiled goats milk and
for this reason, and also because it
improves the taste, practically all
Mexfcans drink only milk which has
been boiled.

Nanking.-After more than half a

ancient capital of China, swarm with
rebellious forces eager for its occupa'
ton and determined to take the strong
hold where the Manchus are making
their last stand south of the Yangtse.
From the Tiger Hill fort for sew
eral hours big guns spoke repeatedly,
while further up, along the northeast
ern range from the top OF Purple
mountain, overlooking the Ming
Tombs for a 15-mile semi-circle west
ward to the Yangtse, smaller forts
scattered shells into every section OF
the city. So far as 1t is known the
casualty list is not large. General
Wong. second in command OF defend
ers, is among those killed.
During the earlier part of the day,
the Imperialists attempted a sortie
against the attacking forces, with
view to recapturing their positions
and guns but were driven back in
side the walls with considerable
losses. The Tiger Hill batteries,
meanwhile, were pounding shells into
Lion Hill. They succeeded in silenc-
ing the batteries there which, it Is sus-
pected, were of little value.
