On Tuesday night, King Fred
erick VIE of Denmark, dropped
dead upon the streets of Hamburg,
Germany. He had been travelling
incognito and had arrived in that
city the day before from long trip
to the south, where he had been
convalescing. The queen and royal
suite were with him. He went out
unattended for a stroll before retir-
ing, and was stricken with apoplexy
and dropped dead upon the street.
He was taken to the morgue and it
was several hours before his body
was discovered by his attendants.
His son, Christian X, has been pro-
claimed King. King Frederick was
born in 1S43 and succeeded to the
throne in 1906. His wife, whom he
married in 1869, was the Princess
Louisa of Sweden and NORWAY. The
new king, Christian X, was born in
1870, and in 1898 married Princess
Alexandria of Mecklen6urg-
Schwerin.

John Barnes For Governor.

A Wisconsin special from Madison
says: John Barnes, associate Justice
of the Wisconsin supreme court, will
be the gubernatorial candidate on
the democratic ticket next fall if
plans which have been formulated
are not miscarried. So very carefully
have arrangements been made that
it is understood that if Mr.. Barnes
makes the announcement he will
have no opposition in the primaries.
Leaders in the Democratic party
who have been here recently believed
there was an opportunity to turn
Wisconsin into the Democratic col
umn this fall. The absence of La
Toilette as an important factor in
the election and the strong features
of the income tax law, are believed
by them as favorable omens of a
Democratic landslide in Wisconsin.
From an authoritative source
it was learned that Mr.. Barnes
had been approached upon the
matter and the informant de-
clares that the assistant Justice
stands willing to make the run
in case he should have no oppo-
Sition in the primaries. He does
insist, however, upon united de-
mocracy in the state.
The unusual endorsement given
Mr.. Barnes when he was candi-
date for the supreme court bench
together with the faith imposed in
him by Senator LaFollette when he
selected Mr.. Barnes as member
of the state railway rate commits
sion when that body was created,
his friends argue makes the out
look for his candidacy look excep
tionally bright.
P. S.-Since the above was put il
type, Justice Barnes has writer
parties in Wausau that he is not il
| the race and will not be.

CONGRESS has at last voted for an
amendment of the constitution pro-
viding for the direct election of the
United States Senators. The
amendment must be ratified by
three-fourths of the state legisla-
lures before it will become law.
In Wisconsin it will come up for
action next winter; in most if not
all of the other states it will be two
years before action can be taken.
The feature that is obiectiona-
BILE is, that it reserves to the
federal government supervision OF
the time, manner and place of hold,
ing senatorial elections, which pre-
cludes the state government from
managing the elections.
