Lumherman Says ctate Flas Grown In
Spite OF Efforts OF Roads to
Entice People Away.

p. NJ. Parker Of the Parker Kellogg
Lumber Company of Rice Lake, in an
open letter attacks The stand taken
by Edmund Pennington president OF
500 line, in a recent interview, an
nouEcing that his road would spend
no more money in Wisconsin because
The laws and tho politicians were such
as to make the state discouraging
place fer invested capital.
II hold no brief for the defense, "
says Mr.. Parker in the letter address
ed to Mr. Pennington, N"but il the
name Of truth and square deal I call
on you for the source OF your state
ment that Wisconsin has deteriorated
either in wealth or population, and to
have you state where you get your in
formation that we have gone back
ward in any way.
There are spots in the state where
the census shows loss in the last ten
years, just as there are towns and
counties in Minnesota and Iowa that
have fewer inhabitants than in the
1900 census
These of US who belong to the com
mon people have hitherto believed
that the losses in these three states
were because Of the lure Of Canada
and overb0omed Tar West, brought to
excess by the gorgeous advertisement
and expert phrasing Of railroad adver-
Users, who beckonod the unWary 10
those promised lands.
perhaps we have lost settlers in
some counties, but in others we have
gained, at least the census shows a
gain so great in other localities as to
leave our state about per cent more
people in 1910 than we had in 1900,
and this in spite Of the efforts of the
railroads running out Of the Twin Cit
les to the West to get every one to
move away from here"

MAPS BIG DISAPPOINTMENT.
Cleveland Team undor Davis Has
Been Flat Failure This Season.

Cleveland Team under Davis Has
Been Flat Failure This Season.
The great disappointment in the
American league race to date has been
the Cleveland team. Having finished
third in the last race under the guild
ance of George Stovall, an ineXperi-
enced manager, it was believed that
with the reins in Harry Davis hands
the team would show to much better
advantage. Then, too, young pitching
staff which had more than held its own
last year could be figured to improve,
and if ever conditions looked bright for
Cleveland to have Il team up and fight
ing for honors it was this spring.
But what has happened? Davis has
proved himself anything but compe-
tent His players seem not to put
forth their best efforts for him, and he
has shown neither spirit nor interest
in his work. Not once since the cam
paign started has he appeared on the
coaching lines, and, while it is true, of
course, that other managers have been
successful without dOnning q uniform,
vet conditions in Cleveland, where list
lessness has always predominated on
the ball team, were such that Davis
would have made Il better impression
had he displayed some real energy.

OFFICIALS Decline
TO DISCUSS ATTACK
Governor MCGOYGrn Smiles al
500 Line Presidents Zap.

The officials at the state capitol
at Madison fatty declined to dis
crss the attack Of President Edmund
Pennington of the 500 line, who said
that by her policy for public utility
regulation Wisconsin is going back
ward and not forward.
Although surrounded by copious sta
tistical tables and recent census re-
ports, which they aver would com
pletely demo1ish President PonninS-
toms line Of argument, Governor Nc
Govern, Secretary Robert A. Campbell
of the state board Of public affairs,
together with members of the state
tax and railroad commissions, de-
clined to make any reply.
After reading Pennington's state
ment the governor smiled and re-
marked:
Ellis views are not very specific"
The governor did say that the state
ment was susceptible to a conclusive
answer If he desired to give it.
Members Of the tax commission
looked over the report of the 500 and
its wisconsin Central branch, but
found so good a showing, they said,
that no answer was necessary.

TO EASE UP MAR0UARD.
Manager McGraw Will Not Work Star
More Than Once a Week.


More Than Once a Week.
Marquard has been responsible for
something like 80 per cent of all the
games the Giants have played this sea-
SON.
If he is worked as often in the future
as he has been in the past the RUDE
will have pitched between fifty-tlve and
sixty games when the season closes.
Assuming that fifty-siX games repre-
sent his entire seasons work. he has
forty odd to pitch. Assuming further
that he wins thirty Of them-to do
which he will have to finish the season
at a 100 clip-he will knock off next
fall with Il record Of having won forty
six games in one year.
He probably won't do it, not be-
cause he hasn't the ability. but because
it isn't likely he will be given the op-
portunity He is breaking into two out
of every six games the Giants play
now-the proportion is slightly greater
than that, but no matter-and seems
not to mind the work that IS being
heaped upon him.
But there are any number Of reasons
for believing that ne will not go
through the entire season at this rate
From present Indications it will not be
necessary to start him that often much
longer,
The players believe that by August
the Giants will be so far in front that

ty take things easy, pitching only two

TAKES AN IMPORTANT STEP
Industrial Education fer Masses Mo-
tive of Present Movement.

industrial Education fer Masses Mo-
tive of Present Movement.
Under the stimulating influence of
recently enacted legislation educa-
tional affairs have taken great stride
forward in Wisconsin the last year:
The development and extension OF
various new departments of educa-
tional activity, made possible by lib
eral appropriations by the state, are
receiving the attention of leading ed
ucators, including state university,
normal, high school and common
school instructors.
Warren e. Hicks, for seven years
assistant superintendent of the public
schools of Cleveland, has been APP
pointed by State superintendent Cary
as a member of the state department
Of education, created by the last legis-
latUre, and upon him will devOlve the
important function Of organizing and
furthering education in the state. His
first duty will be to conduct a state
wide Investigation of conditions,
studying the industrial needs of each
community and arranging for special
izing in studies Of the greatest prac-
tical value to each. Money will be
available for these apprentice schools
on Sept l and it is planned to open
them simultaneously in all the larger
cities of the state.
Under the authority of the last leg
islature the eight normal schools OF
the state now offer two years univer-
sity training as a course in these
schools, assisting the Madison institu-
ton to the extent Of relieving it of a
rush of students, and enabling thou
sands of students who desire a uni
versity education to get the first two
years training at or near home at a
greatly reduced expense.
The problem of introducing manual
training and agricultural courses in
the rural schools is the subject up for
consideration just now and it is ex-
pected the next legislature will pro-
vide means of thus augmenting the
work of country schools.

that while in Lochs custody the ami

most equitable adjustment would be-
obtained by Loch's paying for the dog.
He adjourned the case for one week
and declared that IL the case were not
settled by that time he would issue d
warrant for larceny against the man.
Professor Carlson asked for an imme-
date settlement. but the judge declin-
ed. The professor then declared the
