GIVES SUFFRAGETTES HOPE
Senator James. Sponsor of Bill Pro-
Tiding Votes for Women. Confident
Legislature Will Adopt Measure.

Madison-The friends of woman
suffrage feel exceedingly hopeful as
to the passage OF the bills giving
women the right to vote. Senator
James introduced bill of this kind
In the senate, and Assemblyman Kam-
per did the same in the assembly. The
friends of the measure are maintain
ing lobby at the capitol for the pur-
pose of lining up the legislators.
Senator James is taking deep inter-
est in the measure and expresses be-
lief that the bills will pass the pres
ent legislature. He asserts that the
friends of woman suffrage have
pledges from twelve senator's and
thirty-one assemblymen to vote for it.
The James bill provides that every
woman who is citizen of the state
and Fl years of age can vote, pro-
vided she has lived in the state one
year and in the election precinct
where she wishes to vote for ten days.
These provisions are the same as ap-
ply to male voters. The bill has a
referendum attachment providing for
submission to the electors of the state
at the next November election, pro-
viding it passes the legislature.

GETS S35O,000 TAX
FOR STATE IN SUIT
ATTORNEY GENERAL MAKES A
SETTLEMENT OUT OF COURT
WITH KENNEDY ESTATE.
81, 100000 MORE MAY COME
States Legal Representative Believes
Closing of Case With Principal
Contender Against Inheritance Tax
Law Will Hasten Similar Gases.

Madison.-Attorney General Ban
.roft has concluded the negotiations
whereby the state secures $3.50, 900,
The inheritance tax on $23, 100000 in
stock of the Northern Pacific railway
now owned by the Kennedy estate OF
New York city.
While this is not equal to the
amount claimed by the state, it was
considered the best policy to accept
the compromise as there are grave
doubts whether the state could sue
coed in collecting the full sum under
the law and long drawn contest was
assured if the full amount were
claimed. The case has now been in
the courts for over two years.
The attorney general and Deputy
Attorney General Russell Jackson re-
Gently returned from the east, where
they investigated this and other SIM
liar cases.
Regarding the effect of the states
acceptance of the compromise, Atty.
Gen. Bancroft said:
Il anticipate that the settlement by
this estate and it's consequent refusal
to further participate in the combined
organization to fight the Wisconsin
inheritance tax law will have a whole
some effect in furthering the amicable
adjustment of many estates now pend
ing, and if so, those charged with
the duties of enforcing the inherit
ance tax laws of this state will be
enabled to convert into the state
treasury within the next six months
a sum approximating $1,000 1000"

a Fairly Wet World.

The Pacific ocean covers 6S,0OO,OOO
miles, the Atlantic 30,000,O00 and the
Indian, Arctic and Antarctic 42000,O0O.
To stow away the contents of the Pa
cific it would be necessary to fill
tank one mile long, one mile wide and
one mile deep every day for 440 years.
Put in figures, the Pacific holds in
weight 94S,OOO 100000 900 100000 tons.
The Atlantic averages depth of
not quite three miles. It's water weighs
1926, OOO,0O 100000 100000 tons, and a
tank to contain it would have each OF
it's sides 43 miles long. The figures
of the other oceans are in the same
startling proportions. It would take
all the sea water in the world 100000
years to flow over Niagara.

MAN is A HUMAN MAGNET
Bayfield, Company to Test His Power
in Endeavor to Locate Hidden
Bodies of Iron Ore.

Washburn.-B Bayfield, county men
will undertake the location of ore
deposits this year in a novel manner
namely, by the assistance of a man
who is so heavily charged with mag
netism that he is able to feel the
presence of the metal The name of
the man will not be divulged Tor
personal reasons, but he has been
retained by President D. M. Maxcy
of local bank, who is sponsor for
the statement.
This man, according to Mr.. Maxcs
is SO possessed of magnetism that
he can rub the blade of a steel knife
across his palm and pick up ten
penny nails and other light steel ar
ticles with it as with a horseshoe
magnet. He can burn the flesh of
another's hand by rubbing it and
is unable to carry watch for any
length of time, as the works become
polarized.
He has frequently demonstrated
his power by locating water beneath
the surface, but this will be his first
real test of the ore finding. The base
of his operations will be the Guyana
range, in which there are no out
groupings and the body of ore lies
deep beaeath the surface.

REGENT SWENSON RESIGNS
Vacancy on University Board Means
Entire New Executive Com
mittee of the Regents.

observation-disclosures Swenson of this
city, who succeeded the late w. F.
Villas as egent-at-large of the state
university, and who is now president
Of the board, has sent his resignation
to Gov. McGovern. He was a men,
Der of the executive committee and
his retirement and that of F. c..
Thwaits of Milwaukee, who was not
reappointed, will mean an entire re-
organization of the regents commit
tees and an entirely new executive
committee.
1t is understood that Mr.. Swenson
resigns because he is about to leave
for the south for an extended stay,
and also, perhaps, because his duties
as member Of the state capitol COM
mission require as much of his time
as he feels he can devote to the pub
lie interests.

JUDICIAL BILL PASSES HOUSE
Measure Providing for Non-Partisan
Elections Adopted by Assembly
After Spirited Debate.

Madison.-The Stern bill providing
for nonpartisan judicial primary nom
nations was carried in the assembly
by a vote of 55 to 35
Speaker Ingram, when the bill
came up for passage, called Assembly,
man Mcconnell to the chair and took
the floor against it, stating there was
nenecessity for the bill. He tainted
the Milwaukee members with having
run on a home rule platform and
then failing to bring this question to
the front.
One of the sensational incidents of
the debate was the declaration of
Assemblyman Long, democrat, that
he would not be 'buncked or gagged"
fby any caucus action"
Mr.. Stern, in support of the bill,
expressed surprise that Speaker In
gram waited until the last moment
to oppose the bill. AS to home rule
Mr.. Stern said he had introduced a
home rule bill the first day of the
session, and it might have passed the
house by this time had it not been for
the rules laid down by the committee
of which the speaker was an ex-officio
member.
The bill, instead of assisting special
interests, Mr.. Stern said, would pre-
vent them from controlling the judi
ciary

Both Houses of Legislature Favor

Madison.-It is probable that after

and legal holidays. A joint resolu
ton from the senate was amended in
the assembly changing the date of
all meetings from February IA to
February %. AS the measure passed
the senate by almost an unanimous
vote, there is no question but what
the amendment will be accepted, and
there is no question but what after
February % the daily session will
be the order of the day.

a new dam is built. A new concrete
dam will be built as soon as weather
permits. The east half of the village
is practically without fire protection
as water was secured by power from
