JUDICIAL BILL PASSES HOUSE
Elections Adopted by Assembly
After Spirited Debate.

Madison--The Stern bill providing
for nonpartisan judicial primary nom
nations was carried in the assembly
by vote OF SO to 35.
Speaker Ingram, when the bill
came up for passage. called Assem- bly,
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 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
by 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

EXTRA SESSION FOR
RECIPROCITY PACT
ALMOST CERTAIN THAT CANADt
IAN PACT CANNOT PASS
PRESENT SENATE.
TAFT IN DETERMINED STAND
New Congress VIII Be Summoned if
Treaty Is Not D sposed of by
Present. BodY-Opponents of Bill
Would Prevent Vote on Measure,

Washington. - The sixty-second
congress must be called in extraor-
binary session by President Taft
after March if the Canadian reci-
2rocity bill is to become a law.
This is the inevitable and mex
orable logic of the situation as it ex-
lists today in relation to the senate.
Nothing appears to have been able
to move the group of irreconcilables
OF the party of the president who
have accepted his challenge. The
group OF senators closest to the pres
ldent, who have sounded the opposi-
ton, find that the obstruction will
go to the length of talking the sixty
second congress out of existence on
the subject of reciprocity.
Several of the most important of
the supply measures are still to be
considered in committee and two of
the great bills-navy and sundry
clVIl-have yet to pass the house.
Besides the appropriation bills
there is the constitutional amend
ment, the Lorimer case and the serv-
ice pension bill. Six general appro-
priatiOn bills are still to be passed
by the house and nine by the senate
The appropriation in the pOstoffice
appropriation bill to increase postage
rates on magazines, the fertilization
of the Panama canal and the plan to
honor Commander Peary, if the
house puts this into the naval bill,
all are subjects prolific in debate.

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

Madison.-Magnus Swenson of this
city, who succeeded the late W. F.
Villas as regent-at-large of the state
university, and who is now president
of the board, has sent his resignation
to Gov. McGovern. He was a mem
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.

On the contrary" he said, with
maddening quiet, Il would be the last
person in the world to wish to per-
petuate an indiscretion Of yours. For
it was hardly discreet, was it, to visit
a bachelor establishment alone at ten
o'clock at night? AS far as my plot

SHEbOyGAN JURY
HOLDS MOTORMAN
VERDICT IN INQUEST OVER VIC
TINS OF STREET CAR HOR-
ROR CHARGES NEGLIGENCE.
COMPANY is ALSO BLAMED
Lack of Protecting Measures Largely
Responsible for Cars Plunge Into
River Through Open Draw Says
Coroner's Jury.

Sheboygan.-R Responsibility for the
death of three women when a car of
the Sheboygan Street Railway COM
pany plunged through the open draw
bridge into the river was placed on
Motorman George Theme by the cor
oner's jury. The company is also
scored for its lack of protective mea-
sures.
The jury in its report cites the
death of the Misses Anna Mather,
Tannica Van Ouwerkerk and Olga
Willimit, and continues:
I'VE further find that the motor
man, George Theme, was guilty of
negligence and contributed to the ac-
cident by allowing his car to descend
Eighth street hill at too high a rate
of speed, and in not observing the
open draw of the bridge in time to
stop his car
Testimony was brought out that
the car descended the hill at a speed
Of about fifteen miles an hour.
Motorman Theme said that the
descent of the hill was made as usual
and at the bottom he set his brakes
TO reduce speed, but the rails were
slippery and the car skidded It
was then that he noticed the bridge
opening. He said that the front of
the car was about eighteen feet from
the edge when the bridge began to
swing.
Conductor Weber swore that he
felt the car slip on the rails, although
the motorman had set the brakes
Then the mOtOrman attempted to
turn the lever and succeeded in turn
ing it five times, lessening up slightly
on the brakes. When he saw it was
impossible for him TO stop the car
he shouted to people standing near
by: Hold her, boys; 1 can't stop
her"
If an effort had been made to re-
suscitate victims Of the plunge into
the draw some of them at least,
would not be dead, is the opinion of
local physician.
The first body was out of the car
six minutes after it entered the
water. Life has been found in bodies
that have been in water more than
twenty minutes, and persons who
have been in water twenty minutes
have been resuscitated.
The bridgetenders and Capt. Will
liam Groh of the tug declared that
the bridge had swung over two-thirds
of its area when the car went over
| the edge.
George Theme, motorman on the
| car, was arrested on charge Of man
slaughter in the fourth degree. Eight
hundred dollars bail was Immediate
ly furnished by the traction company
and the company's attorney will con-
duct Themes defense.
The street car which was removed
from the river, has been torn to
pieces by souvenir hunters. The con-
troller of the car has been stolen and
| much of the brass work has been
torn out

why don't you go and tell him

them that, to be obliging, have near

them that we are a lot of idiots with
