MARY ANN" BILL MADE LAW
Measure Prov, ding Second Choice at
Primaries Passed by Senate and
Awaits Governors Signature.

Madison.-The senate has concur
red in the Mcconnell bill providing
for second choice in primary cleo
tons by vote of Is to 8.
Those who voted against the bill
were Senators Albers, Burke, Gay
lord, James, Randolph, Shower
Thomas, Whitehead and c. ZoDhy.
Senator Whitehead opposed the
bill on the ground that it would not
accomplish majority nominations and
would work an injustice to candi-
dates with the fewest number of the
choice votes.
He said that there was some hid
den motive for passing this bill as
the friends Of primary elections. when
the opposition was first advanced
twelve years ago, did not favor the
second choice proposition.
If the bill became law, he de-
clared, it would emDarrass, hamper
and load down the voter In such a
manner that he would be deferred
from attending the polls.
Senator Whitehead reviewed the
agitation for the primary election,
quoting from speeches by Senator
La Toilette and other advocates Of
the law.
Senator Sanborn, speaking for the
bill, denied it would harm the voter
and would enable him to more truly

S0LONS TALKING
OF ADJOURNMENT
RESOLUTION IN SENATE PUTS
DATE AS SOON AFTER MAY
27 AS POSSIBLE.
DEMOCRATS NAME JUNE 8
Out of 100 Bills ntroduced More
Than 900 are Still in iande OF
Committees -Reapportionment OF
State Unlikely.

Madison The first serious move
looking to an early adjournment OF
the present Legislative session was
taken when the committee on legis-
lative procedure of the senate re-
ported in joint resolution proVld-
ing for as early an adjournment after
May q as possible.
The resolution provides that the
introduction of bills. except by joint
resolution, shall stop May is, ano
that all committees must report in
bills in their charge by May q. After
that all bills will go at once to the
calendar and be worked off as fast
as possible.
The democrats have decided on
resolution limiting the introduction
of new bills to May lG, and provid-
ing that all committees must report
in the bills in their hands by May
20. Adjournment will be taken sine
die June 8, according to the resolu-
ton.
The senate resolution does not
name any day for final adjournment
for the reason that the senators real
lie that the time when the legisla-
ture will adjourn for good is an open
question.
Investigation showed that out OF
more than LOO bills introduced in
both houses 900 are still in the hands
OF committees of both houses. To
work off this mass of bills before
June is, it is claimed, absolutely
impossible except on the theory that
everything be dumped off the cal
endar and bills passed or killed with
out regard to their merits. That this
would be unwise and result in much
legislation that would have to be cor
rected later is well understood and it
will not be permitted except as
last resort in case the session threat
ems to drag too long
1t Is apparent that under the new
deal no attempt will be made to APP
portion the state.

Socially Launched.

In his native town Jimmy had al
ways been most popular with young
and old, but when he was sent away
to boarding school, he was for time
too homesick to make friends. His
first letter was little more than a
wall
I'm way behind the other boys in
everything" he wrote, dolefully.
"'Tisnt only studies, but it's gymna-
stun and banjos and everything. |
don't believe they'll ever have much
use for me-"
But the second letter, written after
a week in the new school. was quite
different in tone.
I'm all right" he write to his
mother. THE boys say they'll teach
me all they know, for they're proud
to have me here. | can stretch my
mouth half an inch wider than any
other boy in school, and my feet are
the longest by a full inch. So you

Favored by Governor, Meets with
Resistance in the Assembly.

Madison.-The assembly commit
tee on highways has introduced a
substitute to the senate bill on good
roads. The senate bill, by Senator
Donald, has passed the upper house,

the assembly committee.

tax for road improvements.

PAULINE WAYNE, WHITE HOUSE

PLANS OF THE SECRETARY
The Idea of Exhibiting pauline at
Dairy Exhibition Originated in
Waterloo, ia.-Ws consn Proved
Successful.

Washington, D. Civilian II.
Taft. president of the United States,
Will have an entry in the coming Oc-
tober exhibit of the International
Dairy Show association in Milwaukee.
His entry will be Pauline Wayne, the
White House COW, native OF Wis
consin. He will be the first president
to show stock in dairy show since
Jefferson.
Pauline will have an old home
week of her own, She goes back to
mingle with the common herd and
will probably bring to the White
House something substantial to take
a place among golf cups and other
trophies. When the proposal was
made to the president he did not
hesitate a moment.
The idea of getting aristocratic
Pauline for exhibition purposes orig
mated in Waterloo, Ia, but culmi-
mated in Wisconsin. In Waterloo
they thought they wanted Pauline to
add grace and beauty to their dairy
show. When this news reached Wis
consin there was a busy half hour.
F. A. Cannon, secretary of the Inter
national Dairy Show association
picked up a morning paper, read the
dispatch from Iowa and seized his
pen. 1--WE note that Waterloo" he
began, and then made a fervent APP
peal for home Industries. This won
the consent of the president. Ac-
knowledging that Mr.. Cannon had a
slight handicap in his name he as
scented and Pauline will go to Mil

CAT CARRIES WRITER'S COPY
Intelligent Animal Pressed Into Serv
ice Does Work Better Than
Boy Can Do II.

Bob a handsome black cat, owned
by Francis John Willoughby, story
writer. who lives in Clinton, N. j. is
the apple of his masters eye. So In.
telligent is he that he has now taken
the place of the copy boy whom the
writer formerly employed to carry
manuscript to his stenographer. HIS
owner asserts that the cat not only
knows how to carry copy in either d.
rection, but also can tell time, ana
never makes an error.
Willoughby's nerves are sensitive.
He must have absolute quiet when he
writes. Therefore, he has his study in
the upper part of the house, and the
stenographer works on the first floor
His plan is to write a page OF copy In
long hand and then send 1t to the
typewriter to be copied. Until few
weeks ago he had boy to do the run
ming up and down stairs. Boys will be
boys, however, and the one he had
made an unusual amount of noise,
which often disturbed the writer. The
boy and cat were friends, and on all
the trips Bob accompanied the copy
carrier. until he finally became famil-
lar with the work.
Several weeks ago the boy quit.
Willoughby wondered if he could get
something quieter than boy. He
thought of the cat. Putting sheet
of paper In Bob's mouth, he told him
to go down to the stenographer with
it. Bob went, and soon returned with
copy the girl was sending to her en-
pioyer. Once started the plan worked
to perfection.
Willoughby writes from three until
five o'clock each afternoon. The cat
has learned his hours. Precisely at
three o'clock he stations himself on
stool by Willoughby's side and
watches and purrs until page of
copy is finished. Then Bob sezes 1t
and rushes down stairs. If the stenog
rapher says Thank you, Bob" the cat
knows he Is to return to his master
at once. If she receives the copy in
silence the cat knows he is to wait for
a return message.

offer floral tribute to their memory.
1t Is we'll that one day in each year
shall be devoted to showing respect
to the dead by so simple an act of
affection and commemoration.
Nothing will be more appropriate
or expressive than placing beautiful

prove a benediction or the living as

conditions than existed last year are
forcasted for this spring and cor
responding good effect is expected
on the summer produce.
The only crops that seemed to nave
suffered thus far, and are farther
behind than they were last year, are
clover and alfalfa, although there
seems to be slight decrease in WIN
ter wheat, barley and spring rye.
Prospects for fruit never were
brighter than this year The late
spring, so different from that Of last
year, when all the buds were out be-
fore the heavy snow fall and frost
late in April. has proved boon to
the fruit growers of the state in that
the trees have not blossomed until
