A brother in the back seat made an
odd sound with his lips, rose and snap
ped his fingers. Then he sat down
again with an abashed look.
"Whuffo, nah frien'," said the old
preacher sternly, docs yo' r'ar up an

PORTAGE bikes GET STRAIN
Entire Valley lmperied When Wis
consin River Goes Five Inches
Above Record Point,

tage.-The dikes in the vicin-
ity of Portage are holding well. al
though water is seeping through the
levees in many places. Hundreds of
men have been working day anu
night to prevent disaster. The gauge
now shows thirteen feet. the high
est by five inches in history. The
Madison and Portage division is
blocked, there being twelve inches
of water on the tracks two miles be-
low the city.
Residents of the First ward have
moved to higher places up town, an
ticipating a break in the government
dixie, which would flood the entire
Fox river valley between Portage
and Oshkosh and other points.
A telephone message from Kill
bourn said the river at Kilbourn is
not rising and the southern Wiscon-
sin power dam is holding well Dis
patches from Mansion say the dam
has gone out of the Lemonweir river
there
Authorities have stopped traffic
between Portage and Pacific, as high
ways are impossible and unsafe.
The water is within a foot of the top
of the main line tracks between
Lewiston and Portage. Train serv-
ice has been uninterrupted on all
lines except Madison and Portage.

MUST SETTLE TAX PROBLEM
Question Left With Local Authorities
at Black River Falls, Declares
Commissioner Haugen.

Madison.-Tax Commissioner N.
P. Haugen has returned from Black
River Falls, where he went to coun-
sci with the authorities relative to
the situation that has developed out
of the flood disaster.
He found conditions fully as Sc
rious as reported, but said that the
people had not lost courage Mer-
chants are moving into whatever
quarters may be found, one even
occupying the Baptist church tempo
rarily.
Mr.. Haugen said that the adjust
ment of the taxation problem must
be left with the city authorities and
the county board of supervisors of
Jackson county. The taxes, Mr..
Haugen said, might be collected in
some instances by suit against the
owner. This, however, will probably
not be done, he said. The ordinary
course, where default in payment of
taxes is made, will, no doubt, be
followed, and at the proper time the
certificates may be Cancelled by the
county board.

PLANS IRRIGATION PROJECT
First Extensive Experiment in Wiscon.
sin Scheduled for Next Season
by Milwaukee Man.

Observation-Disclosures with the
launching of an effort to secure for
Milwaukee the next meeting Of the
national irrigation congress, DR..
Gustav A. Kletzsch announces that
he will put into operation the first
irrigation project in Wisconsin next
summer. The plan of supplying wat
er to growing crops when water is
needed will be tried on Nutricia farm
at TheinsYille. Ten acres will be
cultivated under the new method and
careful records kept to show the in
crease in production.
That this irrigation work will be
but the first of extensive similar OPP
erations in Wisconsin is the opinion
of DR.. Kletzsch. He holds that farm
ers will find it profitable to supply
water to crops when water is need
ed, instead of waiting for the water
to come from the natural source. He
points to the lack of rain in June
and July of this year as a strong ar
gument for the need of irrigation in
Wisconsin.

TAFT CLOSES FOND
DU LAG INCIDENT"
UNDERS STANDING REACHED WITH
WISCONSIN CITY AFTER A
BRISK CONTROVERSY
Is GIVEN HOUR AND A HALF
CitY's Invitation to the President Had
Been Withdrawn Following Cutting
OF Original Schedule in Giving APP
pieton Fair Treatment.

Salem, Ore.-The Fond du Lac in
cident, the most interesting con-
nected with the recent travels of a
president, was officially declared
closed on board the Taft special,
when it stopped for few hours here
on the way to the cities of Sac
ramento and San Francisco, and
President Taft is looking forward
to his visit TO Fond du Lac in the
insurgent state of Wisconsin with
an interest greater than that felt
in any other city on his 13,00O-mile
itinerary.
The indications are that there
will be a big time in Fond du Lac
on Taft day, October 26. For a while
1t looked as though the gates of the
city were to be closed against the
chief executive of the nation, all be-
cause they thought it was Oshkosh,
when it really was Appleton that
wanted to be treated a little more
literally in the division of the pres
ident's time. The railroad schedule
of the itinerary had given Appleton
but ten minutes time.
In order to give Appleton a little
more equitable treatment it was nee
essary to cut down the time allotted
to Fond du Lac to one hour and
half. This caused the storm clouds to
lower, and while the tempest ragged
the telegraph wires were kept hot
with messages which chased the pres
fdentiaI train all the way from obey
enne to the Pacific coast.
The mayor of Fond du Lac an
nounced THAT if Fond du Lac could
not have Mr.. Taft for two hours and
a half they did not want him at all.
This decision apparently was not
unanimous, however, for other tel
egrams were sent urging the presi-
dent to come to Fond du Lac, even
if it be only for a few minutes.

HARLAN
DIES At CAPITAL
Supreme Court hEist Expires of
Attack of Bronchitis.
FAMED FOR INDEPENDENCE
His Dissenting Opinions in Standard
OIL and Tobacco Cases Widely
Quoted-Was Born in 1888
Was Colonel in Civil War.

Washington-As Justice John
Marshall Harlan of the United States
Supreme court died at his home here.
Justice Harlan was stricken with
an attack Of bronchitis. At his
advanced age the family was
alarmed, and all the iurist's children
were summoned. With the exception
of the son, Richard, they were all at
the bedside when be died, as was Mrs.
Harlan.
Justice Harlan attended the open
ing session Of the Supreme court last
Monday. He was also present on
Tuesday, when the arguments IN the
anthracite coal case we're begun.
There was no member Of the Su-
preme court more widely known than
Justice Harlan He has been called
the most Independent Of the justices.
John Marshall Harlan was the son
Of James and Eliza D. Harlan and was
born in Boyle county, Kentucky. June
1, 1888. He was graduated from Cen
ter college, Kentucky, in 1850 and in
later years was given the degree Of
Ii. D. by Bowdoin and Center colleges
and the College of New Jersey. After
studying Law in Pennsylvania univer-
sity he began the practice Of his pro-
fession in Frankfort. In 1858 he was
elected a county judge and a year
later was a Wing candidate for con
gres. In 1860 he was an elector on
fh1 Poll and
When the civil war broke out Mr..
Harlan was commissioned colonel Of
the Tenth Kentucky regiment in the
Union army and served three years,
and from 1853 to 1867 he was attorney
general of the state. Then he re-
sumed practice, in Louisville. Twice,
in 1871 and 1875, he was the Republi-
can candidate for governor but was
defeated, and in 1872 his name was
presented by the Republican conven-
ton Of Kentucky for vice president of
the United States. On November 20
he was appointed associate justice of
the Supreme court Of the United
States. One of the notable features
of Justice Harlan's career was his
service as one OF the American arbi-
traitors on the Boring sea tribunal
which met in Paris in 1898.
In his work on the Supreme bench
Justice Harlan gained especial fame
for his dissenting opinions. Those in
the recently decided Standard Oil and
tobacco trust cases attracted as much
attention as did the opinions of the
majority.

1t might be well for those who

is one who chews all things so long

There are, too, many kinds of alco-

furniture polishers but by hatters and
others who use it In their work, and
It seems impossible to make 1t so vile

be drinking considerable quantities Of
methylated spirit, whereupon the re-

was thought, would make the stuff IN

disappeared faster than ever!
