REPEALS COMPULSORY TEST
Governor Signs BichIer Bill Which
Eliminates Tuberculin Law Feature
Long Opposed by Breeders

MadisOn.-Farmers who opposed
the compulsory feature of the tuber-
culin test raw won their fight when
Gov McGovern signed the Bichler
bill which repeats that provision of
the old law compelling owners TO
have their cattle tested before Of
fering them for sale.
This affects breeders of high grade
stock, but does not interfere with the
milk situation in Milwaukee, where
all dairymen shipping milk into the
city are compelled by city ordinance
to have their herds tested.
Other bills signed by the governor
were relating TO the recall of city and
village officers, providing for sepa-
rate ballots for presidential electors,
city officers and all referendum pur-
poses.

MISS BARRYMORE SEEKS DECREE
| Actress Said to Have Dispatched Pa
pers In Suit Against Husband.

Los Angeles, Cal.-Judge Bordwell
handed down a decision holding that
his court had jurisdiction and the
right to try John J. Mcnamara on
murder charges, growing out of the
destruction of the Times plant Octo-
Der l, 1910, and overruling the plea
of no jurisdiction entered on behalf of
the labor leader.
Judge Bordwell stated that the
weight of the authority was against
the contention that an accused must
be tried upon the charge on which
his extradition was secured In COM
menting upon the alleged fraudulent
manner in which Mcnamara was
brought here from Indianapolis, Judge
Bordwell stated that it was not withiD
his province to investigate this.

A Model Commission

Mayor Exum, Judge A. o. Lane and Harry Jones will constitute the com mission which is to administer the affairs of this city for the next four years. The commission form of gov ernment is being tried in large num- Der of cities, and in some of them it is giving marked satisfaction. For the experiment. here certainly no bet ter commissioners could be selected than the three men named.
 The present Mayor has been in of flee nearly six months-long enough to test his capacity. He has had to deal with several exceptionally diff ficult problems, and he has handled them we'll. He promised a business like administration, and thus far that is what he has given us. Judge Lane is one of Birmingham foremost citi- zens. He was Mayor four terms and conducted the office with signal abil- ity. Harry Jones, now president of the council, has served the city long and faithfully. He has been part and parcel of the government of this town, one might almost say, from time i'm memorial. He knows every detail of the citys complex administrative ma chinery, knows it better, perhaps, than any other man.
 All three of the commissioners-to- be are known to this community as men of civic pride and absolute in- tegrity. There is every reason to feel, therefore, that Birmingham will be governed in a model way, at least throughout the first commission term.

Champ Clark's Sense of Humor

! Like Oliver Wendell Homes Champ Clark can no longer afford to be as funny as he can. He is now located on a national pedestal and from that elevation every word he utters is open to criticism and even distortion. AS matter of fact he was discussing Canadian annexation in his accustomed breezy western style, and the House was in gale of laughter, but elsewhere his humor was misinterpreted. It is not much of a shower and will soon be forgot ten.
 MT. Clark is widely regarded as a man who has outgrown the story telling period-one who has seized the reins of opportunity with great breadth of view and with unmistake- able powers of leadership. He is a man who can adapt himself to cir cumstances, and scarcely any one other American is fuller of promise than the distinguished Missourian. The attempt to fasten upon him slip of the tongue concerning Canada will not prove serious. He was indulging his vein of humor which is abund- ant, and he had no idea of saying anything that would disturb interna- tional relations or create friction be- tween this country and the Dominion. Reciprocity has no warmer friend in Congress than he, nor has Canada, and the great cause of peace through out the world.

Advantages of Reciprocity

It is plain that great majority Of the people of this country are in favor of Canadian reciprocity, TT a majority of the people are consumers, and they believe that if the supply of food products be enlarged the prices of such products will no longer be in- creased in price, to say the least. The prices of food articles have been marked up, especially since the pas- sage of the Aldrich tariff, and con- sumers will welcome relief from this tendency no matter from what ouar- ter it may come. Canada might not be able to ship enough food products to this country under the pending ncree- ment to decrease prices to an ;ppre- ciable extent, but SD hard pressed are many consumers that they are ready to welcome any relief, however sn rli. This is why Canadian reciprocity finds supporters in all parts If the country outside of the selfish and greedy special interests.
 The farmers in the northern states should not align themselves yitk the tariff barons. They have generally stood for the good of the greatest

GUITEAU's HEAD PRESERVED

From the Washington Post.
 q was told today that the head of Guiteau, the assassin of Garfield, is pre- served in private museum near Muncie, Ind.," said R. A. Goshorn, visitor from Cincinnati, at the New Willard last night.
 Ut seems that distinguished savant out Muncie way has a remarkable 9col- lection of curiosities from all corners of the earth and some things in his collec- ton are rather grewsome. He, had a fad once for the collection of clothes, buttons, necsties and such of great men and also for odd things with history like pieces of ropes with which murder CTS had been hung.
 'In some way he secured the head of Guiteau long after his execution here in the Washington jailyard. I have never met anyone here in Washington who could tell me what was done with (rui- teau's body, but my recollection is that it was given to his sister or other rela- tives, who looked upon him as demented person, rather than a criminal. The body of the assassin of President Mckinley was buried in quicklime, so no one could get his head or do anything with his body, but Guiteau lived some time after Garfields death and went through a long trial, so there was slight decrease in the bitterness against him when he went to the galiOws."

Qualified Electors Should Register

Judge of Probate Stiles speaks from his knowledge of this city and county when he says. that a large number of citizens who are qualified electors except in the respect of reg istration have moved in from other counties or states, or else have moved from one precinct to another in this county. Judge Stiles is en- deavoring to perfect the registra- tion lists of the county, and he in, yites all who have changed their residence to call at the probate of flee in the courthouse and make known the facts connected with their right to vote. He will aid all persons who are entitled to registration.
 This invitation on the part of the judge of probate should not go un- needed. At the best the list of voters is too slender. Cumulative poll tax payments have disfranchised a vast number in this state, a number that among the whites reaches well up to 100000, and no one entitled to vote should swell this list by reason of change of residence and neglect to call the attention of the judge of pro- bate to individual facts. Any one who has recently removed from another state to this state is entitled to regis tration wholly regardless of poll taxes cumulative or otherwise. Keer Judge Stiles invitation in mind and call on him soon because he desires to perfect the registration lists of the county.
