The district attorney of Milwaukee
has struck twelve on the question OF
divided responsibility between the man
who rents house to a lewd woman
and the woman herself. His claim is
valid against the man who with knowl-
edge rents his house for the purposes
aforesaid Is he not a partner in the
business? He receives much higher
rental for his property than he could
get from one engaged in legitimate
business. And where he rents, having
the greater financial returns in view,
he is from moral point of view a
partner with his tenant. Why prose
cute the woman and allow the man to
go free? We do not believe this is
right. This problem does not confront
the district for Milwaukee .alone.
Every city has this question to settle.
Public opinion should be. aroused upon
this situation in all the cities of the
land and there would be no doubt as to
the good results to follow. Menom-
onie Journal.

The city of Seattle. WASH, has
demonstrated that the recall law, CIV
ing the people power to put an un-
faithful officer out of office if they see
fit, is something more than "tinkling
brass and sounding cymbal." Former
mayor Gill, of that place, has been
made to realize forcibly that Life is
real, life is earnest" to the official who
serves a municipality operating under
the recall law. He was elected a year
ago by plurality of $500. During the
summer complaint was made that he
had entered into league with the
various lines of vice, furnishing them
protection in return for proper con-
sideration. This was really nothing
new; the administrations of nearly all
large cities customarily do the same
thing, and the people customarily do
nothing but register a mild ''kick i,
and forget all about it when next cleo
tion comes round. In Mayor ellis case
things didn't happen according to the
usual schedule. somebody thoguht of
the recall law, petition was circulat-
ed, an election held, and His Honor
was removed by plurality of $500.

IT'S but a few short moons since
Taft roasted the Insurgents and with
held patronage from them because
they differed from the majority of
their party and voted with the Demo-
Gratis on some schedules of the tariff
bill. Now we are treated to the spec
tacle of Taft and minority of the Re-
publican Congressman joining hands
with the Democrats in support of the
Canadian reciprocity measure. Party
solidarity is beautiful and inspiring
principle in general way but it ap-
pears Il at the President has discovered
that there are exceptions. The per-
picking question is, who is to determine
when Congressman is to be bound by
party fealty and follow the majority,
and when is he to break the shackles
and vote according to his convictions.

ant performance of a duty. He pro-
poses to abolish the present poll tax,

three dollars on each male between the

Rev. j. H. Jowett, formerly of Bir-
mingham, Eng, was recently engaged
as pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presby-
terrain church, of New York. In his
letter of acceptance he states that the
salary, $4,000, is too big, and that he
will not accept more than half that
amount. After he has labored among
his plutocratic Fifth Avenue parish
toner's for while he will probably re-
consider his action. The man who
tackles the job of saving the souls of
the members of that set deserves a
high salary.

A bill before the assembly provides
that all heavy sleighs must be of a
width of not less than four feet eight
inches. That the use of wide sleighs
would be of great benefit to the snow
roads is undoubted. The present Gus
tomary width makes track too mar
row for team to walk comfortably in,
and when the snow is of any consider
able depth horses frequently step out
side the hard track and the sleigh run
ners cut into the soft snow, making
the load pull heavily and damaging the
road.

The various sessions of the confer

addresses showed that steps for the
Improvement of rural life are being
taken in many parts Of the state with
marked success. The addresses and
discussions of the conference were so
helpful that plans are being made to
publish the complete proceedings for

note OF the meeting was the coopera-
ton OF the various forces now operat-

farmers and business mems organiza-

tuberculosis in rural districts is be-
ing investigated by the Wisconsin Anti
tuberculosis Association, not only to
show to what extent the disease is
prevalent on the farm, but to show the
necessity of sanatoria in districts which
have no large communities.
The idea has been prevalent that
tuberculosis is disease of the cities;
that rural districts practically are free
from it. It is known, however, that
fifteen deaths occurred in one family on
a Wisconsin farm, and that another
farmers family was entirely wiped out
by the disease. In both instances due
to ignorance, it was believed that the
disease was hereditary, and the necess-
ity of precautions, Of methods of pre-
venting the infection of normally heal
thy members-0f the family was I'M
known.
Dunn county has been selected for
this rural survey, not only because it
is believed to be representative dis
trict, but because of the interest of its
inhabitants in the white plague fight
and the possibilities of assistance
from the county training school. The
survey, which is being conducted by
Kathrene Gedney, field secretary Of
the association, has been under way
for nearly two weeks. It is expected
that it will be finished early in March.
More than $50 cases have been located
in the county. Not only will accurate
information be had relative to the raw
ages of consumption in rural districts,
but the investigators serve as valuable
educational agents, instructing patients
and their families as to proper care,
methods of cure and the necessity Of
preventing the infection Of others.
