He thought there was no need for com plications in the adjustment of state and federal relations in this matter; that no permanent relinquishment of state sovereignty was required, nor any permanent expansion of federal authority.

good men say that such a conception is too large and impracticable, but am persuaded that this cannot be true. It is my opinion that the prob
 lems involved in the drainage of all the swamp lands in the United States combined do not encounter the real difficulties and the untried engineers ing questions that are comprised in the construction of the Catskill wa ter supply tunnel of New York, or the installation of the new water sup ply of the city of Los Angeles" If practical results are to be ac- complished by swamp drainage. the task must be undertaken by the central government Mir. Leighton thinks, however. because each of the greats wamps occupies parts of more than one state. The state govern ments do not act together in such matters. yet no drainage plan that does not treat a swamp section as a whole can be successful, the speaker declared.
 But the national aspects of swamp reclamation are not confined to those of engineering necessity" said MT. Leighton Other aspects of economic necessity are truly federal in fact. if not in law. Moreover, these as- poets are by no means confined to interstate SwampS. Seventy-four million acres of swamp land lying in almost every state in the union, con stitute of themselves a sufficiently important issue to make them a mat ter of general welcome.
 First and foremost. our swamps are the greatest single menace that now remains to the public health. Malaria is still with us. Yellow fever will surely come again, and the. pity of it is that we fail to use the means that have been placed in our hands to stamp it out forever. Is not this a federal matter? Consider mo- ment Yellow fever visited New or leans in 1905. Tn the dire emergency of that time it was considered wise and proper to use federal authority to send national experts and federal money there to conquer the epidemic. Would it not be wise and proper also for the nation to prevent the evil as well?
 Another national aspect Is that or home making In their present condi- ton the swamps of the country are a source of weakness in our national economy They are now unproductive; they can be made sources of great national wealth. Seventy-four miil- ion acres of drained swamps can be made to support at least 7,0O0.OOo people in agricultural pursuits. Is not this a national natter"

for the improvement of highways within
this system only.
In laying out this system the county
board should have in view the amount
of prospective state highway to which
each town is entitled, SO that no town
shall be precluded from receiving its
Just proportion of state and county aid
A county road map showing the system
must be made and filed with each town
clerk and with the state commission.
The system so laid out connot be alter
tered or enlarged without the consent
the state commission.
The state grants aid not to exceed
333 per cent of the cost of the improve
ment on any highway within the system
and not to exceed twenty per cent of
the total cost of the construction of
bridges. The balance of the expense
must be borne by the town and county
Jointly. At the next November session
the county board must determine what
portion of thist balance must be borne
by the town and what portion borne
by the county The county board may
determine that the county may bear a
greater portion of this expense than the
town but it cannot determine that the
town shall bear any greater portion of
of the expense than the county. It
seems to have been contemplated that
this portion of the expense will be
borne by the town and the county
equally.
In order to receive any portion Of the
state or county aid the towns mnst pro-
coed in the following manner:
The electors at any regular town
meeting or at any special meeting called
for that purpose, may vote special tax
of not less than $4,000 for improving
any portion of prospective highway
within said town, Or a tax Of not less
than $4,000 for building bridges on
such highway. The total tax voted to
be not more than three mills on the
dollar of the assessed valuation, pro-
vided that by a three fourths vote the
limit may be raised to five mills. If
this special tax is voted, the town
board shall petition the county board
on or before September first to allot

RECALL OF JUDGES REMAINS
Arizona Is Left Alone, Vote
on the Same Being
43 to Is.

Washington, Aug. 9.-Much speech
making consumed the time of the SEN
ate, The recall of judges, as pro-
vided for in the Arizona constitution,
was denounced by Senator Coe A.
Crawford Of South Dakota
At the conclusion of his speech Sen
ator Clapp, progressive Republican,
addressed the senate in support of the
proposed recall. Senator O'Gorman of
New York condemned the recall as
the most "pernicious doctrine" put
forth in years, one calculated to I'M
dermine the judiciary and degrade pop
ular government
Senator Owen of Oklahoma made a
brief reply. He is in favor of recall
Of federal judges, including the SUI
preme court justices. Senator Curl-
Minis defended the Arizona constitu-
tio1
Senators Bailey, Shively and New
lands closed the debate which has
been extended over two days on the
statehood resolution.
Inc uoDdIo was interrupted snort
ly after 4 o'clock by the visit of Adj
miral Togo, of the imperial Japanese
navy. On motion Of Senator Root, the
senate took fifteen minutes recess and
senators filed past the visitor and
shook hands with him, Vice President
Sherman making the introductions. On
leaving he was applauded on the floor
and in the senate galleries, which were
crowded with visitors at the time.
The statehood resolution was passed
at 7:30 O'Clock, after the senate had
been in session eight and one-halt
hours. The first vote came on the
Nelson amendment to knock out of the
Arizona constitution the recall of
judges. The amendment was de-
feated by a vote of 43 to 26 The
statehood resolution containing the
recall was then passed by vote of
53 to IS. Bailey and O'Gorman voted
against the statehood resolution.

1t seems strange to the Democrat that
any citizen of Platteville should find
fault, as one writer does. with DR..
Duncan McGregor for failing to land
more money for their normal school.
AS a getter Of funds for the Platteville
normal school Duncan McGregor has
long been a host in himself. Twenty
years ago in the face of opposition
before which almost any other man
would have gone down, he secured.

has been largely instrumental in
securing a good many subsequent

THE ROAD LAW
Its Most Important Provisions EX-
planned to Readers of The
Democrat.
HON. PIATT WHITMAN
Gives a General and Clear Idea OF
the Working Of the Donald
Road Law.

Editors Democrat your request |
am writing an explanation of the law
passed by the last legislature and
known as the Good Roads Law"
The law is quite lengthy and contains
many provisions. Space will not per
nit an explanation of each provision
and [ have attempted to explain only
those parts which seem most important
at this time and which will give the
reader general idea Of it's workings.
The object Of the law is, of course,
better roads. This problem has con-
fronted us for many years and no
system has yet been devised which has
attained the desired result. Prior to
the passage Of this law county aid could
be given under certain conditions, but
towns have not taken advantage of
this aid to an extent sufficient to result
in any great improvement.
It is thought by the trainers Of the
law that by giving state aid in addition

embark upon a system Of better and
more permanent highways.
The law creates State Highway
Commission composed of five members,
three of whom are appointed by the
Governor. The other two members,
are the State Geologist and the Dean of
Engineering College of the State Uni
versity. The commissioners receive no
compensation but are reimbursed their
actual and necessary expenses in con
nection with their official duties. This
commission has charge Of the expendi-
ture of the state funds in the improve
ment of highways and bridges and an
annual appropriation of $35O,OO0 is

A NO CON TEST EDITOR

Ed L. Luckow, editor of the Sank
County Democrat, in the last number Of
his paper says:
'AlthOugh we have received several
more urgent requests from contest
managers to get into the game, we have
not yet decided to do so, especially
since the Democrat list Of subscribers
is quite satisfactory"
The Democrat is a credit to the city
of BaraboO, in which it is published.
Mr.. Lucknow rightly refuses to be
drawn into the contest game for secur
ing subscribers, and devotes himself to
advancing the interests of his city and
county. In short, he aims to give the
people local newspaper which will
command their support, and the well
printed pages of The Sank County
Democrat show that his efforts are
successful.
Circulation is a poor standard by
which to judge newspaper. Often
times large circulation is secured at
the expense Of character.

Successor to Adam F. Dresden

and apportion the county's share Of the
improvement. The county in turn
petitions the state to allot and appOr-
ton its share.
The necessity for towns desirin g
state and county aid for 1912, to take
immediate action is apparent AS has
been stated, all applications for aid
must be filed by September first If
the special tax is voted, special town
meeting must be called for that pur-
pose. This must all be done before
September first. If towns take i'm
mediate action they can have the tax
voted and the petition filed in time to
receive state and county aid for 1912.
Unless they do, no aid can be received
for the coming year. Town officers
should bear this in mind.
To provide for the payment Of the
cOunty's share of the improvements the
county board is required to levy tax
not exceeding three mills on the dollar
on all taxable property Of the county to
be placed in the road and bridge fund
and to be used in the payment of the
county's share of the expense of high
way and bridge Improvements.
The plans and specifications for all
work on these highways and bridges
must be prepared or approved by the
state commission before the work is
commenced.
State and county aid is granted for
two kinds of improvement. Those
which are regarded as permanent and
those which are only temporary. If the
highway has been improved with a
surface of stone, gravel or other material
approved by the state commission as
giving a hard durable surface, upon
it's final acceptance, it becomes a state
highway. When a piece of road is
accepted as state highway it must be
maintained by the county and the town
is relieved of the duty of keeping the
same in repair and from any liability
for damages caused by defective high
way This is considered a great in
ducement for towns to make their
improvements permanent. All other
improved highways are maintained by
the town as heretofore and the town
still remains liable for damages caused
by defects.
The law contains many other i'm
portant features and | would strongly
urge all town officers and members of
the county board to give it careful
study A large sum of money will be
expended under its provisions Nav
the hopes of the trainers of the law be
fully realized. Very truly yours.

made for that purpose, They have
authority to employ engineers, experts
clerks, stenOgraphers, ETC., and an
appropriation Of $4,000 annually is
made to defray the expenses of the
commission.
In addition to the state highway
commission, the law provides for a
county highway commissioner. The
county board must at its next Novem-
Der session elect a competent man for
this office at salary of not less than
5000 per year. Any county which fails
to elect a county highway commissioner
cannot receive any share of the state
funds. The county board may, how
ever, dispense with the county highway
commissioner by adopting resolution
requesting the state commission to take
charge of the work in the county but
must pay the expense incurred by the
commission in this work.
The county highway commissioner
works under the direction of the state
commission and has charge of all high
ways built or improved by state and
county aid,
The law provides for a system of
Prospective State Highways" That
is, highways, for the improvement of
which state and county aid may be
granted and which may eventually be-
come state highways No other
highway is affected by the law.
At the next November session of the
county board provision for system of
prospective state highways must be
made. This system must at first con
tain not to exceed fifteen per cent of the
road mileage of the county and must
include the main travelled highways
leading into each town in the county.
1t must begin at the corporate limits of
the county seat and of the various mar
ket towns and railroad stations of the
county. 1t must not be understood
that all the highways belonging to the
system are to be improved at once. 1t
simply means that the highways with
in this system are the only ones, for the
improvement of which, state aud county
aid may be granted and that all peti
lions for state and county aid must be
