be found to transact business. and that
is more than can be said of other col

Over TubercuIin Test Law.

Madison.-Dr. A. Ell. Hartwig of
Watertown has resigned as state vet
erinarian, following a hearing before
the governor, on charges preferred
against him by the live stock sani-
tary board. The substance Of the

rendered his resignation in writing,
and the governor Immediately ac-
copied it. In his resignation DR..

my work is SO seriously handi-
capped by what appears to be an
irreconcilable conflict on the state

progressive accomplishment in live
stock sanitation is possible"

D. B. Clark of GAINESVILLE. The sal
airy OF the office is $4,000.

Washington. - The senate AND

to be the liveliest session IN recent

of the leaders was brief.
It will be an interesting session.

The lower house Of congress, LOT
the first time in many years at
regular session, Is in control OF the
Democrats. 1t may not be necessary
to remind the country that the last
session was a special one convened
by the call of the president, and that
it's time was given up largely to the
discussion of two subjects, the tar1n
and reciprocity, subjects SO nearly
akin as to be almost one flesh.

WAUPACA FARMLAND SHOOTS
AGED MOTHER OF THE GIRL
WHO HAD JiLTED HIM.
FIRES ON FAMILY AT TABLE
After Serving Jail Term on Assault
Charge, Andrew Mortenson Takes
Revenge on Mrs. James urant,
Whom He Blamed for Troubles.

Waupaca.-Because he blamed her
for his failure to win the love OF
Blanch Durant, Martin Mortensen, a
farm laborer, shot and killed Mrs.
James Durant, aged rs, while she
sat at supper with her three daugh-
ters. He then saturated his clothing
with kerosene, applied a match and
sent bullet into his own brain.
Mortensen, who was % years old,
was infatuated with Blanch, % years
old, the Oldest daughter of Mrs. Du-
rant, but his advances were not en-
couraged. Two months ago he quar-
relied with the girl and struck her,
for which offense he was convicted OF
assault and battery and sent to jail
for sixty days.
During his incarceration after his
assault upon Blanch, he brooded over
what he said were his wrongs, and
frequently remarked to jail officials
that "the old LADY, was to blame for
his trouble and he would fix" her.
Immediately upon his release from
Jail, Mortensen procured a revolver,
and appearing at the Durant home,
began shooting.

STATE STRONG BOX BULGEs
Unexpected Receipts Bring Million
More Than Wisconsin Treasury
Held Year Ago.

Madison.-State Treasurer Dahl
reported to Gov. McGoyern that at
the opening of business on Dec. 1
there was S2,596, 628.19 in the state
treasury. Of that amount $2,146,-
901.39 was in the general fund. Spe-
cial appropriations by the Legislature
and current expenses of the state
government come out of the general
fund. The big balance in the gen
eral fund is largely due to the fact
that the revenues from inheritance
taxes, settlement of back tax suits
against the railroads and other
sources were larger than was eX-
pected. The balance in the state
treasury on Dec. 1, 1910, was ST.
503,392.62, or $1,O93,235.5 less
than that of this year. The balance
in the general fund on Dec. 1, 1910,
was $912,726.01, or $1,234,175.3S
less than that of this year. The
cash on hand in the treasury on Dec.
1, 1911, was $26,252.81, the remain
der of the funds being out at inter-
est in various banks

passed the president will hold that
his vetoes Of last summer have been
indicated and will feel perhaps that
the prospect of reelection has been
cleared of overhanging clouds.
AS for the Democratic leaders, they
seem to be determined that if the tar
if boards report on wool is in ac-
cordance with the information gained
by members of the ways and means
committee, which, of course, is dom
mated by the Democrats, legislation
based on the boards report must be
passed. The party leaders, however,
seem to be determined that if the
tariff boards report has in it suspi-
cion of leaning toward the side of du-
ties which are too high, bill cutting
those duties shall be passed and sent
over to the Republican senate for
commentator or condemnation.
No sooner had congress opened
than the trust matter again put it's
Interrogation to the lawmakers. Sew
eral bills have been drawn already
which represent the varying views of
what ought to be done to the Sher-
man law. This matter will be thrashed
out thoroughly before June comes, and
with the tariff it will occupy the chief
place of interest and debate.
Representative Underwood, Demo
crat, of Alabama, the leader of the
house Democracy and chairman of
the committee on ways and means, is
ready to combat on the tariff and the
trust questions, and other questions
for that matter, James r. Mann, the
floor leader of the Republican minor
ity.
The senate is Republican in it's ma
jority, but it is divided into two fac
tons, regular and insurgent. or if
you will, reactionaries and progress
sives. Senator Gallinger of New
Hampshire is candidate of the stand
patters for president pro tenn. Mr..
Gallinger is opposed by the progress
sives. but they are not willing to vote
for a Democrat, and today an attempt
is being made to compromise on a
Republican senator who will be CRATE
full to both factions of Republicans.

BEEF CASES IN HIGH COURT
Packers Counsel File Motion n,
Stay Until Sherman Antitrust
Act is Interpreted.

Washington.-The case of ten NH
lionaire meat packers of Chcaga
who seek to delay being brought IN
trial before Judge Carpenter at Chi
cago, was laid before the Supreme
court of the United States.
John S. Miller and Levy Mayer al,
peared fer the beef barons. They "a
quested such stay as will postpone
the trial, and urged the court to pass
upon the constitutionality of the penal
clause of the Sherman act before tn.
case is heard
In the motion made by Messrs. Nil
Ter and Mayer the future Of all Grim
inal prosecutions brought under The
Sherman antitrust statute are placed
in jeopardy. The petitioners declare
the law to be void. They assert The
federal district court has no power
to try them, and say they are being
detained without authority Of law,
They aver the Sherman act does not
create or define any offense or crime
The light or reason" as outlined
in the Standard Oil and Tobacco d.
cisions, is invoked by counsel for the
meat packers. They allege that of.
GERS of corporations are now in per
petual jeopardy, subject to the shift
ing views of different juries, With
"the shadow Of the penitentiary for
ever over them"
The declared intention of President
Taft to prosecute the trusts is CITED
by the packers as an additional rea
son why the criminal sections Of tho
Sherman law should be given an early
Interpretation.
Solicitor General Lehman an
nounced that objection would be d
fered by the government to the en
