NEW VIADUCT
To BE OPENED
Borough President Gives
Out Date Yesterday.

Borough President Cromwell, of
the borough Of Richmond, an
nounced yesterday that the new con-
crete viaduct for automobiles, trucks
and wagons leading from the ferry
at st. George to a point at the north
east corner of borough hall at the
intersection of Jay and South streets
will be formally opened next Satur-
day, June 10.
The borough has control of the
upper part while the Dock Depart
ment Is responsible for the lower
section near the ferry house. The
ceremonies will be brief. The open
ing OF this new viaduct means the
abandoning of the old South street
hill which has been an eyesore and
hardship upon horses coming off the
.ferryboats for a long time. The new
viaduct has almost a level grade and
shortens the distance from the ferry
to Stuyvesant place at least half a
block with a cut into the latter thor
oughfare through the United States
lighthouse property.

VINCENT DE.
PAUL SOCIETY.
Annual Visit at Mt. Loretto
Sunday June II.

Elaborate preparations are being
made for the reception of the st.
Vincent De Paul Society Of Brooklyn,
when it makes it's annual visit to the
Mission of the Immaculate Virgin,
Mt. Loretto, on Sunday, June 1th.
The visit of the society this year will
be of more than passing interest,
because of the fact that Rev. Charles
Reid recently ordained a priest, will
say his first mass at II o'clock in
the Church of St. Joachim and st.
Ann at that place. Father Reid is a
graduate of the Latin School at Mt.
Loretto and for that reason great
preparations are being made for this
event. Rev. Mallick J. Fitzpatrick,
who is at the head of the Mission of
the Immaculate Virgin, will be in
charge of the ceremonies. 1t Is ex-
pected that many other priests will
be present on this occasion. The
members of the st. Vincent Society
will come down from Brooklyn on
one of the Iron Steamboat Company's
boats, arriving at Mt. Loretto in time
for the mass. After the mass, a din
ner will be served in the large din
ing room. In the afternoon there
will be a concert by the famous
boys band of the institution and a
drill by the cadets on the lawn In
front Of the main buildings.
This will conclude the program for
the day and after an inspection of
the various buildings, the visitors
will return to Brooklyn again about
& o'clock

The Progressive" cranks who ran
the legislature last winter were so sat-
urated with the idea of hedging up the
cause of politics by the drastic corrupt
practices act that now they are at a
loss how to manage the blamed ma
chine for themselves. Every bit of
their legislation last winter was based
on suspicion of the people. 'The peo-
pie don't know enough to manage their
own business. eve are the special
saviors of all good government. - CIV
erything that has happened in this state
previous to the coming of La Toilette
and us, was all wrong" "We must
hedge up the people with this restric-
tive law and that, or they will go to
the devil" every republican but our
insurgents is a thief and robber." So
ran the refrain in purpose, if not in
speech. A lot of half-fedged lawyers
and wild-eyed reformers ran the en-
CINE. Now they are afraid to put it on
the track for fear it will run over their
own toes. Fort Atkinson Union.

A Warning to Politicians.

The National Founders association
has sent out circulars containing a
statement of the conclusions agreed
upon at its recent annual convention at
New York and copy of the resolu-
tiOns adopted at that convention.
The statement sets forth that to the
thoughtful citizen it is apparent that
the tendency of much recent state and
national legislation is to depress rather
than to encourage activities which
make for the country's material adj
vancement and prosperity; that politi-
cal and social unrest find expression in
extreme measures which seriously dis
turb economic stability; that radical
and unwarranted legislation is proposed
as panacea for every i'll and every
shortcoming; and that political mounte-
banks feed upon prejudice and build
upon hatred and selfishness. The pen
dulum of public opinion, it asserts, has
swung to extremes and has caused ap-
prehension and uncertainty where con-
fidence and certainty should prevail.
In the meantime a country whose nor
NAL temperament is hopeful and optim-
istic, land of wonderful resources and
boundless possibilities, of remarkable
energy and constructive ability, is Ian
gushing under prolonged Industrial
depression.
This statement introduces the follow
ing preamble and resolutions:
That the panic of 1907 was primarily
financial disturbance which should be
followed by period of industrial de-
preston was to be expected. That this
depression should be prolonged over a
period of years is unwarranted and
must be laid to causes which should and
must be removed. Be it therefore
Resolved, That, in the judgment OF
the National Founders association, the
time has arrived when the country
should awaken to the real situation,
discountenance public expressions anc
legislative action designed to discour-
age legitimate enterprise and CONNER
cial and industrial development, ane
denounce the political thinkers who de-
stroy confidence and undermine the
economic stability of a great nation
And be it further
Resolved, That we bespeak for ths
American people returning confidence
in themselves, a conservative attitude
on all controversial problems and the
application of sane methods to theil
solution; more friendly cooperation
between capital and labor, between
employer and employee; that we i'm
press upon the agencies of government
the duty to promote rather than retart
the progress and prosperity of who's
people. Evening Wisconsin.

Grand Opera Coming Here.

There will be thirty-fve in the band,

Signor Creatore is noted throughout
this country as one of the foremost di-

In FHE total value of cattle on farms
when the 1910 census was taken, Wis
consin ranked seventh. The value of
Wisconsin cattle on farms at the time
was placed at SGT, 400, 000 The states
that had larger value than Wiscon-
sin, in the order named. were Texas,
New York, Kansas, Illinois, Nebraska
and Missouri. Of the 2,678, 100 Wiscon-
sin cattle, 1,471, 591 were dairy cows,
and in this respect Wisconsin stood
second in all the states Of the union.
The only state that had more dairy
cows than Wisconsin was New York,
and New York led us by only, 81, OBJ
COWS. According to the government
crop report, Wisconsin is also second in
the production of potatoes; the only
state in the union that produces more
tubers also being the Empire state of
New York. The crop of New York for
this year is placed, in round numbers,
at 80, 784, 900 bushels and that of Wis
consin at 80, 100, 900 bushels. The other
great potato producing states are Mich
igan, Maine, Pennsylvania and Colo
RADIO, and in 1910 Wisconsin stood fifth,
instead of second, in the list. This
year Wisconsin also stands second in
the quality of its product, our potatoes
ranking SO and those of Maine Sc.

WHEN a county board of supervisors
refuses to enter the good roads move
ment-as the Monroe county board did
recently-on the excuse that good roads
are for automobiles and persons seek
ing their pleasure at the expense of the
farmers, in shows that notwithstand-
ing the years of campaigning, the
economic value of good roads is not yet
understood. When a man maintains
his teams and wagons, gets his feed
and stabling for his horses without
money expenditure that is, raises the
feed and frequently the horses, and
uses his farm stables and when he
places no value on the time it takes
him to haul his crops to market, it is
hard to make him see the real value of
good roads. And at the same time it
is easy for him to feel the pressure
when his money goes in cash for road
taxes. 1t is that which stands most
firmly in the way of good roads. But
if farmers had to pay in cash the labor
wasted by the present system of road
work; if they had to pay in cash for the
additional time it takes to haul their
crops over poor roads; if they had to
pay for the additional trips it takes
when smaller loads must be drawn,
they would be so insistent for good
roads that no power on earth could re-
sist them Milwaukee News.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKETS
Continued From Page ~

this year, as IN past years, IN spite OF
the belief of the dealers that every
crop ought to be paid for on it's merits
and not at a general market price.
Some little stripping of the new crop
has been done, but it will be several
weeks yet before the growers get at
the work in earnest.
The demand for 1910 tobacco has been
steady, but there are few local pack
ers, as previously stated, who have any
for sale, so leaf dealers and manufac-
turers, who some time ago would have
nothing to do with the much-berated
1909 goods, are making inquiries re-
garding it. The holders of these goods,
of which from fifteen to twenty thou
sand cases are still in our packers
hands, now look for stiffening of
prices and an active market.
The improved condition in our cigar
trade at large has had the effect of
booming business in Lancaster county,
and in York county, too, the other big
cigar territory of the Ninth district.
The receipts of the headquarters Office
of the district indicate that November
was at least as good a month in the
trade as was October, and it was away
ahead of September The factories
are busy now on their Christmas or
ders, which means that only the best
grades of goods are being turned out.
The larger factories have all the orders
on hand that they can handle and some
are working overtime to prevent being
swamped.

THE killing of twenty-four persons
and the wounding of thirty-one in the
woods of Wisconsin in the hunting sea-
son which closed at midnight Nov. 80,
shows that a great many reckless

greater, but last year they fell off to
nineteen persons killed and seven in
