PREDICTS 1911 WILL BE DRY
u. S. Eneineer Marra of Neenah AS
serts That the Years Of Drouth
Run in Cycles of Ten.

Neenah.-That the year 1911 will
be dry year, is the prediction OF
l.. M. Mann, United States engineer
in charge of the government work
on the Fox and Wolf rivers and lakes.
He bases his forecasts on statistics
compiled and on records in his Office.
He maintains the dry years go in
cycles of ten years. Form 1885 to
1895 there was a period of ten dry
years. From 1895 to 1905, this
years were wet. The next six years
have been dry and Mr.. Mann states
the years will continue dry until
1915. In this connection, paper
manufacturers bear out Mr.. Mann.
They maintain the dry and wet years
alternate in cycles of from eight to
ten years, and for that reason are
falling back on the use of steam in
stead of water power.

HOARD RESIGNS AS REGENT
Political Partisanship in University
Management Given as Reason for
Withdrawal by Ex-Governor.

Madison.-Ex-Gov w. D. Hoard
has sent to Gov. MeGovern his resig-
nation as a member of the board of
regents of the state university. Be-
fore going south early in the winter
Mr.. Hoard resigned as president Of
the board A little later Regent
Magnus Swenson, who succeeded him
as president, resigned from the board,
and it was said at the time that Gov
Hoard would soon do likewise 1t
has been we'll understood here that
both men were not in sympathy with
what looked to them as a policy to
conduct the university on political
lines. That this view was true is
borne out by the letter of resignation
Of Gov. Hoard, which is as follows:
Eft. Atkinson. Wis, March %,
Governor, Madison, Wis. Sir: [
hereby tender my resignation from
the board of university regents to
take effect at once. Failing health
and an unwillingness to longer re-
main as a member of body that has
Ie1lCiy U0cn leCOuSII uCIeu upon me
basis and for the main purpose of
political partisanship for the La Fol-
lette faction in politics are my chief
reasons for resigning.
Il do not believe that great state
school like our university can be wise
ly, honestly or efficiently administer
ed from so narrow standpoint. Re-
specially yours, w. D. HOARD"
Both Gov. McGovern and Presi-
dent Van Hise of the board of re-
gents have given out statements de-
nying with great emphasis that there
is any political partisanship in the
board, as charged by Ex-Gov. Hoard.

five Ringing brothers, present day
rulers of the circus world, who died
at the home of his brother, John,

carded wagons for rails; when from
a one ring, unpretentious, five-cage

WORKERS BILL IS
PASSED BY SENATE
COMPENSATION MEASURE AND
AMENDMENTS ADOPTED BY
VOTE OF % TO 8.
EARLY ACTION BY ASSEMBLY
Amendments Attached are Principally
Designed to Meet Obje ctions o
Manufacturers and Farmers to
the Original Bill.

MadiSon.-The senate, under sus-
pension of the rules, passed the work
mems compensation bill by a vote
of 20 to 3. Twenty amendments,
principally designed to meet obJec-
tons of manufacturers and farmers
to the original bill, were adopted.
The bill provides for system of
compensation for bodily injuries to
workmen, the compensation to be
paid by the employer, who is ex-
pected to reimburse himself by add
ing it to the cost of his products, as
he would the loss by wear and tear
on his machinery or other expenses
incident to the manufacture of his
goods.
The compensation ranges from 65
per cent of the average wages of an
employe for temporary partial dis
ability to four times the average
annual wages for permanent total dis
ability or death. Every employer has
the option of coming under the act.
The employe also has such option,
but he can not exercise it unless his
employer has come under the act.
If an employer does not come I'M
der the act, an injured employe re-
tains his right of action for damages
under the statutes and common law
as at present. If the emplOye de-
clines to come under the act and his
employer is under it, the latter re-
tains his defenses in actions for dam
ages as at present.
The most important of the amend
ments were those restoring to the
employer the present defenses of as
sumption of risk, cOntributOry negli-
gence and fellow servant negligence
in case the employee does not elect
to come under the act providing that
a claim for compensation shall have
precedence over all other claims, ex-
cept the lien of any judgment entered
upon an award, providing that an
employer of less than three persons
shall not be affected by the act, and
that persons employed by a contract
or of a county, city or village school
district or the state shall not be
considered an employe of such state
or municipal subdivision.
The twentieth amendment was Of
fered by Senator Sanborn, providing
that the act shall not go into effect
until Sept. 1, instead of July 1 of
this year.
The bill will come up for consid-
GRAFTON in the assembly within a few
days.
