Washington. Feb. 1s.-The friends OF
ship subsidy legislation in congress are
much discouraged. They see little hope
OF getting the legislation they want TINS
session. A meeting this week OF the
house possibilities committee to take oE
the ocean mail question failed to bring
out quorum Of The committee
This is of the more Importance be-
control of the house and when they dc
subsidy legislation will be impossible
So it looks as If the supporters OF sub
sides would have to blde their time
until the republicans recapture the
house and have control OF the govern
ment complete.
One OF the difficulties which ship
subsidy legislation has had to contend
against is the feeling of many members
Of house and senate that the proposed
aid TO the merchant marine would be
inadequate to really rehabilitate the
merchant marine Most members OF
congress would like to see the Ameri-
can flag flying on the ocean more free
not figure out how this could be
brought about to any marked extent by
the expenditure of several millions Of
dollars.
The proposition to give subsidies to
ships carrying mail to South America
is stronger in the house than the pro-
position to eubsidize lines to the
Orient. That is, a considerable num-
Der Of men from the middle west would
vote for subsidies on lines to South
America but would not SO vote II the
lines to the Orient were included. On
the other hand II the lines to the Orient
are shut out, the Pacific coast repre-.
sentatives balk.
When Champ Clark In a At Of en-
thusiasm in the house the other night
said In effect that reciprocity was
preliminary to annexation Of Canada
and President Taft wrote q letter to
Representative Mccall in return. deny.
ing there was any thought OF political
union IN the minds Of the negotiators
there were stirred up in many respects
the most important phases OF tho re-
ciprocity question. This question. from
all indications, 10 not likely to b. down

As matter Of fact, one does not have
to seek far among the members Of the
house ana senate to discover down a
the bottom . strong feeling that would

agreement. am convinced II means
closer and better relations with Can

II. It points In the direction Of political
union"

Inc was simply talking the way Of . lo'
Of his democratic and republican col.
leagues feel. Mr.. Clark 10 the only one
who In . way to attract internationa
notice blurted out his real feelings.
Particularly II there . feeling among
members Of the west and northwest In
favor Of closer relations with Canada
This 10 in no small measure due to the
fact large numbers Of middle western
farmers have bought land across the
border Some OF them have crossed
over. Others have sent relatives across
and look on Canada rather - an ad-
joining or neighboring state than -
separate nation.
Governor Mann, OF Virginia. has stir
red up q hornets nest. Tho other Day
Governor Mann gave out IN Official
note in which It was set forth that the
president OF the United States would
not have to pay automobile license IN
Virginia. Moreover, the governor was
willing the president should run az
many autos in the Old Dominion free
of charge az he wanted to.
This has stirred up great Juror
among some Of the good old democrats
Of Virginia They are objecting to Gov
ernor Mann giving away money that Of
right belongs to the people OF the state
and are charging the governor with try
irS to exercise "the divine right OF
kings"
"rhere Is no divine right Of kings In
Virginia" says one Virginia newspa-
per In lambasting the governor for his
generosity to the president.
More or less comment has been made
because Senator La Toilette has been
little heard from in the senate this win
ter. AS a matter Of fact. he has been
unusually quiet. He has been In his
seat most Of the time but he has look
ed on and listened and has had nothing
to say except to answer to his name on
roll call
All this has excited wonderment fof
"FIghting Bob" has never allowed
session to go past before without ham
mering way at something or someone
AS a matter Of fact. tho explanation
is simple. Some have said Il was be-
cause the Wisconsin senator was Ms
tening to the buzzing OF the presiden-
tial bee. But this is not the reason. 1t
was because he was cut 70 pieces. or
about as nearly so as q man could be
and live, by the surgeons last summer
He is taking his time about recovering
and has not fully regained his strength.
tho he has largely so and is daily I'm
proving.
Any day now, Senator La Toilette Is
likely to feel fit enough to jump into q
fight in the senate.

ASKS PROPER OBSERVANCE
Governor, in Memorial Day ProcIa
nation, Recommends That All
Honor Nations Heros.

Madison.-Gov. McGovern issued
a proclamation fixing Tuesday, May
80, as Memorial day and recommend
ing that it be observed by all people.
His proclamation, in part, is as fol-
lows:
"Patriotic and memorial exercises
will be planned by the Grand Army
of the Republic and the Women's Re-
lief corps and other patriotic organ
izations. Old and young, as we'll, as
is in their power should join in these
exercises and lend aid in carrying
out the purpose to which this day
has been dedicated.
"All too soon taps will sound Or
dering the last hero of the civil war
to his rest. But, thanks to the OBJ
servance of this day, the memorial
flag will still float over his grave as
an eloquent sign of his patriotism
and faith.
sit is further recommended that
on this day families visit Gods acre
where their loved ones rest and there
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 he more appropriate
or expressive than placing beautiful
wreaths and fragrant blossoms upon
the graves of those who have depart
ed. Let Memorial day, 1911, be OBJ
served in such a way that it may
prove a benediction on the living as
we'll as tribute of respect for the
dead -

BADGER CROPS LOOK GOOD
Report of State Agricultural Board
Shows Normal Condition-Fruit
Prospects Are Excellent.

Madison.-Crop conditions through
slightly better prospects than in 1910,
| according to the spring farm crop
report issued by the state board of
| agriculture. More favorable weather
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 have
| suffered thus far, and are farther
behind than they were last year, are
| clover and alfalfa, although there
| seems to be a 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 cut 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
| practically every fear of another frost
has passed.
i Although summer vegetation is not
as far advanced as usual, owing to
the cold weather prevailing through
| out the spring, practically no damage
| is reported
summary of the reports secured
from the state board of agriculture
correspondents throughout the state
| give the following estimates of pres
ent conditions of the principal crops,
100 representing a high average con-
dition:
Winter wheat, 81; clover meadows,
72; winter rye, 90; alfalfa, S. tim
