M. P. RINDLAUB, for long years ed
itor of the Platteville Witness, and his
good wife, whom the newspaper fra
ternity of the state love and respect,
were permitted to celebrate their golden
wedding Dec. 18th and receive the con-
graf ulations of their family, neighbors
and friends. Mr.. and Mrs. Rindlaub
have both been prominent in the offices
of the Wisconsin Press association, the
former president and the latter treas
urer, for many years, and none have a
larger circle of we'll wishers, we are
certain.

A $4,000, 900 bond issue for good
roads in New York state got by very
easily in the election, the majority of
some 400, 900 showing how popular the
project is. Bond issues for this pur-
pose have been made in more than one
eastern state in recent years, and the
sentiment in their favor is probably
due to the automobile more than to any
other single cause. But every class
will derive much benefit, more or less,
and none so much as the chap out at
the countryside.

The origin and history of the term

laid wager that a word OF no sense
or meaning whatever should be the
common talk and puzzle OF the city
within "a hours. In consequence the
letters 1 were chalked on all the
walls, and needless to say he won. 1t
rapidly acquired the meanings OF
riddle, an obscure question, an enig-
ma; one who quizzes others; an odd
fellow. Webster defines the verb form
as to puzzle, to run upon, to ridicule
or make sport of; to look sharply and
mockingly at. to peer at. to eye sus-
piciously. We should say that It
slightly hints of prying also. A quiz
ger is defined as "one who quizzes
others, or makes them the object OF
sport by deceiving them"-rather a
harassing sort of person. is it not?
Finally the habit Of quizzing is termed
Quizzism.

The rapid transmission of news
among Kaffirs and Hottentots is a
mystery which even Mr.. Rider Hag-
gard is unable to solve. Mr.. Haggard
was at Pretoria in 1879, at the time
Of the battle of Isandhlwana. Twelve
hours after the disaster an old Hot
tentot washerwoman told him that
Cetawayo had defeated the British
troops, and gave details Of the fight.
So impressed was Mr.. Haggard that
he reported the information to his Of
hcial superior. The British official
pointed out that it was impossible for
the news to be true, as IsandhIwana
was 1872 miles from Pretoria. and no
Geographic o. railway communication
existed between the two places. On
the following day official confirmation
OF the disaster was brought by mount
ed messengers, who were dispatched
Immediately after the battle and trav-
eled at top speed all the way. Yet
the natives won by twenty hours, and
the washerwoman's story was true in
every detail.

Confederate Reunion.

Macon, Georgia, is making great
preparations for the coming Reunion to
be held May 7th, 9Th and 9th, 1912
Colonel Walter A. Harris, who is colo
mel of the Georgia militia, has been Sc
lected as general chairman, and is as
sisted by an able corps of busy business
men, who are untiring in their efforts
to make this the greatest reunion ever
held in Dixie. The Sons of the Confed-
eraey will have a very important and
prominent part in the coming reunion,
for Commandment ]. Marion Dunwody
of the Thomas Hardeman Camp, No.
Is, is doing some very active work for
the Sons in the coming reunion. Mrs.
Walter d. Lamar, head of the Georgia
u. n C's.. as chairman of the Wo-
mems Auxiliary, is untiring in her eff
forts for the entertainment of the
Daughters.
The Confederate Reunion of 1912 will
be the greatest ever held il any city in
the Southland. Thousand and thous-
ands of dollars are pouring into the
treasury of the General Reunion Com
mittee, and every citizen of Macon is
doing his share to make it a success.
When the veterans come to this, 1.-THE
Magnetic Center" of Dixie, they will
be extended welcome of the kind that
they will remember until they answer
sound Of taps. Macon will be theirs
to do with it as they will, and her peo-
pie viii extend the right hand of fellow
ship to the men who battled for Dixie
Everything that she possesses will be
turned over to them while they are her
guests.
A committee of representative bust
ness men, headed by John ]. Mckay, is
in charge of the campaign for funds,
and unlimited money will be at the COM
mand of the committee, every dollar of
which will be spent to give the veter-
ans the time of their lives. 1t is esti-
mated by General Secretary E. II. Hy-
man, of the executive committee, that
500, 900 will be used by Macon in enter
tanning her guests. Macon will not go
out in the State of Georgia for a single |
dollar, but on the other hand will raise
the entire amount from her own citi-
zcns, which shows the spirit that builds
90 cities, and the committees are car
xying out to the letter the promises
hade by Secretary Lyman at the Little
Ro>k Reunion last year.

Not More Laws, But More Enforcement of
Present Laws.
Fredericksburg Evening Journal.

Fredericksburg Evening Journal.
What is the use of enacting new laws
to effect a given purpose when the
present laws intended to produce the
same result are not obeyed? What rea-
son is there for thinking a new law will
be obeyed, when the present one, and
one as good, yes, a better one than has
been suggested to take its place, is
shamefully violated?
Why should we believe that a new
office, wherein is to be administered a
new law, will secure better results that
would the old Offices, if the latter were
occupied by new men who would en-
force existing laws?
WHY ADD ANOTHER HIGH SAL
RIED OFFICE TO OUR ALREADY
BURDENSOME LIST, WHEN THE
PRESENT OFFICES, IF FILLED BY
MEN WHO WILL DO THEIR DUTY,
ARE ALL THAT ARE NECESSARY?
WE NEED NO OFFICE OR CON-
MISSION FOR THE EQUALIZA-
TON OF ASSESSMENTS, IF THE
EXISTING LAW is ENFORCED,
AND 1T CAN BE ENFORCED.
Our Constitution says: GALL AS
SESSMENTS OF REAL ESTATE
AND TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROP
ERTY SHALL BE AT THEIR FAIR
MARKET VALUE"
Who dare say that this cannot be en-
forced? Or, if enforced, that it will not
equalize assessments? If it cannot be
then no other law, for the
same purpose, can be.

Among the recommendations made by

following:

persons who in any way assist in the
registration of an illegal voter should
be held to strict accountability end I'M
der penalties which will not only protect
the sanctity of the registration lists and
ballot boxes. but will put our election
methods above suspicion and give as
surance that our election methods prop
erly record the will of the people,
Such Recommendation is futile as
long as the machine controls the cleo
ton machinery of the State. If Gov
ernor Mann is sincere for election re-
form he should recommend his fellow
citizens to vote the Republican ticket
and thus smash the machine.
