Engineering in Hospitals.

Practically all the important in
firmaries and hospitals in England
have their own electric generating
stations, and the size of the installa.
lions would surprise the majority Of
engineers. The equipment has to be
designed with unusual care. owing to
the special conditions which prevail
in hospital work. Even where pub
lie supply is available, the use of an
independent system is justified on ac-
count of the security which it gives
against failure of current at a critical
moment The installations are used
for lighting, heating. ventilating, tele-
phoning and other purposes, and
many hospitals have laundries OPP
Grated electrically. One county asylum
has its own private electric railway
for conveying supplies from the near
est railway station.

ELECTION OF JUDGES
MAY Be W|DENED
SOCIALISTS WILL SEEK TO MAKE
STERN BILL APPLICABLE TO
THE WHOLE STATE.
REDUCTION OF CANDIDATES
Measure Provides for a Primary at
Which Any Number May Contest
Judseshlp on Regular Ballot.

Madison.-A movement started by
The introduction of bill to provide
for primary election for the nomina-
ton of non-partisan candidates for
circuit judgeships is likely to affect
the whole state. The Stern bill.
which is designed to prevent the So
cialists from electing all or q ma
jority Of the six circuit judges in Mil
waukee will come before the assem-
bly, elections committee this week, at
which time, 20 the surprise Of those
most concerned, the Socialists will
support the measure, but will seek to
make it applicable to the whole state
instead of to Milwaukee county alone.
The radical members declare they are
not opposed to primary for judicial
elections, as they do not believe it
will affect their chances of eiecting
the entire Milwaukee county bench.
Therefore. en- the theory that what's
sauce for the goose is sauce for the
gande-," they bid fair to execute a
coup that will put old-time legislative
craft to shame
The Stern bill provides for a pri-
mary election at which any number of
candidates may contest for nomina-
tons, and the primary will reduce the
number who will go on the ballot at
the regular election to two for each
judgeship Thus in Milwaukee coun-
ty the primary will leave IL nomi-
nees to go on the ballot-they being
the II who stand highest at the pri-
mary
The complexion of the assembly
elections committee is such that the
measure may be recommended for
passage, but its fate in the senate is
altogether problematical. as there are
Is lawyers in that body
Other committee hearings SEIZED
uled for next week are the joint SEES
sion hearing on the income tax bill
and special hearing on the bill to

ance department with regard to pay

She was a vivacious brunette of me-
dunn height, INTEL gent looking, with
good features and fine teeth 1t was

woman who had experienced early the
hard knocks Of the world, yet in
whom adversely had. not succeeded in
wholly subduing a naturally buoyant
amiable disposition. There was de.
termination in the lines above her
mouth. 1t was face full of character,
the face of woman who by sheer
dint of logged perseverance might &C
complish any task she cared to set
herself A smile of welcome cleaned
in her eyes as she inquired eagerly:
We'll, dear, anything doing?"
Howard shook his head for all re.

crossed the young wife's face.

Flood of Bills VIII Be Stopped.

Present indications are that the in
PRODUCTION of new bills will be stopped
soon.
Just how the "stopp2ge" will be ac-
complished is not known, but it is
certain that in the assembly it viii
be without warning. as Speaker IN
gram at the beginning of the session
said as much In open meeting
At hearing on the Burke highway
commission or good roads bill, Sena.
tor John S. Donald of Mount Horeb
explained his reasons for not stand
ing with the rest of the joint special
committee in favor of the Burke
first 70 the form of commission pro-
vided. Instead of three commission
ers, one an engineer at $4,000 a year
and two others without special quail
fication at $4,000, he suggested
commission of FIVE, the dean of the
University of Wisconsin college of en-
cheering and the state geologist ex-
oficio. and three others appointed by
the governor, to be paid only their
actual expenses as are the members
of the civil service commission. These
commissioners would be empowered
to employ good highway engineer to
make Investigations and provide the
towns and counties with data to help
them in their work Of improving high
ways. Senator Donald's state-aid plan
involves the payment of aid to coun-
ties In the same proportion as the
taxes they pay bear to the total re-
ceived from all counties. If the lat
ter do not take all the aid coming to
them, the money Is to be left in
fund. from which annually would be
apportioned aid to such counties as
did not receive as much as they de-
sired.
This method, Senator Donald thinks,
would provide an incentive for coun-
ties to continue road improvements
with a greater amount OF energy.
A bill covering Senator Donalds
ideas on this subject was introduced
in the senate late in the day

Expect New Liquor Measures.

A number of new liquor measures
are expected Agitation regarding
county option has developed the fact
that the contemporaries have up
their sleeves a tentative or compro-
mise plan, which will be offered In
the event that the regular county OPP
ton bill is defeated-which seems
quite certain.
This tentative proposal would make
the county the unit in counties where
the rural population exceeds the total
population of all cities in that county,
and the city the unit where the city
population Is the greater It is conf
IDENTIFY expected that such measure
will have easier shedding and no little
prospect of passage, as 1t may hSve
the support Of representatives from
counties which would not, under the
circumstances, become the voting
unit. In Milwaukee county, for In
stance, the citys right to decide the
saloon question for itself would not
be disturbed

To Control Brewers, holdings.

o Coutrol 6seWer9' HoioinQG.
Second In interest to the county OPP
ton bill is the forthcoming attempt
to prohibit brewery corporations from
owning and maintaining saloons. 1t is
in this point that the liquor interests
as a body are split. the Retail Liquor
Dealers association apparently being
more powerful than the brewers. 1t
might be added. in passing, that there
is every indication that to date the
liquor interests have been much more
actiye-but more secretly-than in
many previous sessions, and that
hardly a member has escaped their
attempts at moral and other kinds of
suasion.
Among the other liquor bills al
ready In are one by Assemblyman
Monson. striking out the provision Of
the statutes whereby a minor is al
lowed to purchase liquor upon a writ
ten order from parent or guardian:
compelling the revocation of a license
for violation of ANY" excise law; pro-
hibiting the licensing of a saloon with
in one mile OF any Incorporated viii
lage or city; and increasing the statu-
tory penalty for drunkenness Bills
which are said 70 be ON the way are:
To place the licensing power in the
hands Of the county and give the
county all the increment; to increase
the minimum saloca license to $500 a
year; to prohibit saloons except in
cities and villages; to prohibit sa-
looms within a mile of the National
Soldiers home at Milwaukee; to pro-
hibit saloons In Madison by extending
the present "half-mile" limit; and to
prohibit treating in saloons.

Presently Annie came in carrying
steaming dish of stew, which shs
laid on the table. AS she helped How

Howard was too busy eating to an

of bread, he growled:

Annie sighed. Size had been given

have surprised her to hear anything

Something will turn up soon. Where

Income Tax Bill Before Assembly

Income AK Bill Before Assembly.
The income tax measure which
came into the assembly was read by
title only, and will be filed later, as
but few typewriter copies were
available. The bill is similar to the
bill reported by the special joint legis-
latiye committee on income tax a
short time ago. 1t also follows close
ly along the lines of the income tax
measure introduced in the assembly
by Assemblyman c. A. Ingram two
years ago This was defeated.
The new bill taxes incomes from I
per cent on an income of 1000 to 6
per cent on incomes of $4,000 or
over.
Actual expenses may be deducted
and interest paid on indebtedness
during the year, also losses sustained,
which were not covered by insurance,
will be taken out. Worthless debts
are not counted
A single man receiving an income
of $500 has to pay tax A man and
wife start at $500. In a way the bill
encourages large families, in that
each child takes off 5000 from the In
come on which a tax must be paid.
From dependents, who are supported.
5000 is taken off, Dividends are as
sessed. even If the corporation from
which they are received has to pay a
tax.

It has Just been discovered that
early this week a bill was in readI-
ness which would take away the stat
utory provision that men may sell or
mortgage other than homesteads with
out the consent of their wives. A sim
liar measure died a natural death in
the Minnesota legislature recently,
and that fact has been commented on
here. A rough draft of the proposed
Wisconsin measure reached the legis-
