In a decision recently handed down
the supreme court upholds the constitu
tionality of the civil service law.
Such decision was generally expect
ed, in fact, few except ingrained and
incurable Standpatters ever doubted
that the law was valid. 1t would seem
automatic that the state has the power
to decide upon the method of choosing
it's servants, and if it sees fit to require
an examination before the appointment
of certain officers, what constitutional
reason have disgruntled politicians to
object?
The story of the attack on the civil
service law is interesting. 1t was in
stituted by Attorney General Leyi H.
Bancroft, the only Standpatter secur-
ing a state office in Wisconsin last
fall. Bancroft, it will be remembered,
sneaked into office by a back stairs
route, being beaten to a fragile at the
primary by the shade of Frank I.
Tucker, but being boosted onto the
ballot by bare majority of the su-
preme court, the Standpat members of
that body. On taking Office he desired
to reward B. j. Castle. one of the nu-
merous lame ducks of the old guard,
who will be recalled as one of the Jen-
kins color bearers in the days before
Waterloo. Castle being more familiar
with back room conferences than with
public examinations; SHE'D at the Civil
Service Commission, and Bancroft ap-
pointed him regardless, precipitating
the scrap.

1.-The ice is OUT To those who re-
ceive the despatch it means the coming
of long-expecled and long-deferred
pleasure. The lakes are open. The
fishing season is on 1t is time to pack
the kit and start.
The going out of the ice is one of the
annual miracles. For weeks the sun
has been rising higher and higher,
beating every day little harder on
the icy barriers; yet apparently it has
had no effect. The surface of the lake
is still unbroken, and so far as the eye
can see, is unaffected by the advancing
season. Only last week one might
safely have driven across it. Even
yesterday it was safe to walk on; but
to-day the ice is out.
The miracle is constantly repeating
itself in human life. Men see some
cruel wrong, and address themselves to
rlghting it. They give generously of
time and money, work unselfishly year
after year, and perhaps become dis
heartened by the lack of interest and
the sloWness of the response. The
mass of selfishness and indifference is
so huge that it seems impossible for
any sun of righteousness to thaw it,
The evil still exists. Years of effort
have made no visible mark upon it,
What is the use Of fighting any longer?
There is no use, because there is no
more need. We wake some morning
to find the battle won. The ice has
been disintegrating, although we did
not know it, A wind, hot with human
passion Slocum disaster or a Wash
ington Place fire, has melted the mass
in night. Indifference and GOODNESS
are gone; the thing we have been work
ing for is accomplished.
1t took almost lifetime for John
Howard to thaW the Indifference of
the world to the sufferings of the pris-
oner. The sun of compassion shone
for half a century upon slavery in
America before the evil melted away.
Why should We be discouraged about
any reform?- Youths Companion.

Many newspapers are attacking the
present legislature as being controlled
by the brewers, and the, celebrity with
which it has killed a number of bills
proposing moderate temperance legis-
lation gives some ground for the
charge However, it isn't we'll to be
too hasty. The legislature represents
the people of the state, and cannot be
charged with being unfaithful unless it
refuses to obey the mandates of the
people. Promises made in political
platforms have bound the present legis-
lature to pass certain laws, the initia-
tive, referendum, restriction of the use
of money in politics, etc., and if such
promises are not redeemed the legisla-
ture will have proved recreant to its
trust. Temperance legislation, how
ever, desirable as it may be, was not
promised Aside from the unsuccess-
full attempt of Vim. M. Lewis to force
the county option issue, the saloon was
not an open issue except in a few local
tiles. In the absence of any mandate
from the people, legislators must use
their own judgment, and while we may
regret the tender soicitude shown for
the liquor interests, there seems no
good reason to charge unfaithfulness
or corruption. If this legislature will
help pave the way for the initiative and
referendum it will have provided the
best possible method of solving the
liquor question and every other vital
question. Give the people chance at
80 questions and they will Ultimate
>cided right.

Even President Taft has reached the
conclusion that the Philippine Islands
constitute liability and not an asset.
In recent speech he asserted that the
burden we assumed in taking over the
swamps and malaria, the cannlbals,
polygamists and slave holders of those
islands should destroy any temptation
to further acquisition OF territory.
Why not get rid of the burden. AS we
have absolutely no use for the islands,
why not turn them over to Japan,
which needs them, retaining ample
coaling stations and the privilege OF
free trade? Japan could handle the ma
tive races far better than we can,
would probably assimilate them to
some extent, while the best we can dc
is to kill them off as we did the Indian.
Possibly killing is the only practicable
method of civilizing them, but, if so,
better let George do it.

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL
Health is Worth Saving, and Some
Ladysmith People Know How to
Save it.

Many Ladysmith people take their
life in their hands by neglecting the kid.
neys when they know these organs
need help. Sick kidneys are RESPONSE
bic for a vast amount of suffering and
Ill health, but there is no need to suf
fer nor to remain in danger when all
diseases and aches and pains due to
weak kidneys can be quickly and per-
manently cured by the use of Doan' S
Kidney Pills. Here is Ladysmith
citizens recommendation.
Mrs. A. Winters, Eighth ST., Lady
smith, wis, says: "a member of our
family suffered from lame back and
inactive kidneys. There were pains
in the loins and STOPPING was done
only through great effort. Doan's
Kidney Pills were finally used and
they brought relief This PERSONS ex-
perience leads me to vouch for the
merits of Doan's Kidney Pills.

That the commission form of gov
eminent affords increased opportunity
for the politician to manipulate city
government and that it may itself be-
come powerful and deadly political
machine is the most dangerous aspect
of the plan, declares the author. The
more absolutely power and patronage
are concentrated, the greater the polit-
ical force that can be welded by the
holders of them. A small commission
exercising the entire power of the city
might build up such machine, and so
intrench itself that it could not be de-
feated. Whatever the form of organ
ization, the person who makes an
every day business of politics will come
dangerously near administering it.

COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
EXPLAINED BY VARSITY MAN

In response to the urgent demand on
the part of citizens of Wisconsin for a
concise yet thorough treatment of the
subject of city government by commits
sion, the University of Wisconsin has
now in press $50 page bulletin on the
question, by Ford MacGregor, head of
the municipal reference bureau of the
university.
The first comparative analysis that
has ever been made, giving the pro-
visions of various charters and laws on
each of the important features of the
commission form of government, is
given in the bulletin and is expected to
aid much in presenting the essentials
of the commission plan in lucid man
ner. This analysis is primarily intend
ed for those who are interested in only
particular features of the plan.
The fact that commission government
has made a deep impression on the
popular mind is attested by the rapidity
with which the movement has spread
during the past five years. Seventeen
states, Wisconsin among them, have
already made provisions for the adop-
ton of the plan by cities of sufficient
population. The bulletin now being
published by the university is designed
to familiarize public officials, legisla-
tors and citizens with the various
phases of commission government so
that they may intelligently consider
the advisability of adopting that sys-
tenn for their cities, if the occasion
arises.
An accurate and careful history of
the origin, rise, spread, successes and
failures of the commission form of
government movement is included in
the work. This is followed by an ex-
! PLANTATION of the term and clearing up
of many erroneous impressions often
associated with it. The author points
out that there are three distinct. types
OF commission government and that
each has its distinctive features.
In pointing out the advantages of
this form of government, the writer
says: THE commission form of gov
eminent will undoubtedly facilitate the
election of higher type of men, for
American Municipal experience plainly
demonstrates that small bodies with
large powers attract better class of
men than large bodies with small pow
ers. Men are willing to assume re-
sponsibility, provided they are given a
free hand and may hope to receive the
merit due to service we'll performed
This has not been the case under the
common council system. Councimen
and aldermen, as rule, have had little
or no success in business. Lists of
councilmen and aldermen in American
cities have been published which show
that most of them to have little or no

Of course you remember Jim TaW-
ney, Congressman, who was made
famous by Taft's Winona speech.
Well, Jim was given nice soft berth
on special commission known as the
Canadian boundary commission. There
isn't any present important dispute be-
tween this country and Canada regard
ing boundary, but that fact is imma-
terial. After the unfortunate differ
ence of opinion between Jim and the
voters of his district, place had to be
provided for him, and the term ''boun-
dairy commission" sounds well. 1t is
lofty and patriotic and soul-stirring,
and incidently carries good salary.
jim had been making good--Irom his
point of view. He has been making
Standpat speeches throughout the
northwest, telling the people that the
initiative and referendum are anarchis-
tic, that the common people have no
business to butt into legislation. Now
comes a Democratic Congressman who
proposes TO abolish Jim's commission.
Will cruel prosecutions of political mar
tyrs never cease?

To the surprise of all connected with
the trial, the Deitz family used only
two of their forty-eight peremptory
challenges to jurors, and the jury was
selected so quick that it took the
breath of the prosecuting attorney.
The willingness to accept the jury as
empaneled was explained by Clarence
remark that in Sawyer County one
jury is as good as another.

In refusing counsel and defending
his own case, Deitz exhibits his char
acteristic abundance of nerve and lack
of discretion. If he had been less
belligerently independent at times in
the past, he probably wouldn't be in
his present position. While for aught
we know his cause may have been per-
fectly just from the beginning, he has
been too independent and obstinate.

The present Wisconsin legislature is
controlled by the brewers. Seems
funny, doesn't it? The Republican plat
