WISCONSIN NEEDS TO DEVELOP
ITS FINE NORTH PART.

Upper Wisconsin has long been re-
ferred to as 1.-The pineries" and the pso-
pie generally have been in the habit Of
connecting pine timber with poor soil.
More than half of the area OF upper
Wisconsin is covered with hard woods:
it is well to nndersyand that the good
white pine that has been used for half
a bentury in the construction of build
ings in the southern part Of the state
grew upon excellent land. First quail
ity pine does not grow upon second
quality soil.
But the day of doubt as to the fer
tility of upper Wisconsin soil has been
reduced in recent years and completely
dispelled by the 1910 census. The ques-
ton now is rather whether the noted
counties in the southern part of the
state will be able to maiutain their SUI
premacy over the upper counties from
the standpoint of productiveness?
At recent meeting of Director Ne
we'll and Statistician Blanchard of the
irrigation department and the officials
of the western railroads, it was stated
emphatioally that the movement to the
irrigation projects has completely
stopped and it is apparent that Wiscon-
sin will receive her proper share of at
tention and agricultural extension in
the Immediate future
There is yet roam for the establish
ment of 250,00 forty-acre farms in the
the upper counties.
There are almost numberless water
powers aggregating probably 100000
horse power yet embarrassed in the
upper counties.
There are thousands of beautiful
lakes that are fast becoming visited by
summer tourists, and that traffic is in
creasing SO rapidly as to promise to
equal those of Main and New Hamp-
shire, where it is reliably said the re-
suit is a revenue of at least $4,000, 900
per year to each state.
The development of these natural
resources will call for the building of
cities and villages in every locality.
1t is easy to see that all this means
benefit to to the metropolis of the
state as the greatest commercial CEN
ter adjacent to that territory. Not
only will the large manufacturers, job
bers and bankers receive benefit, but
the benefit will find it's way to all the
people, not the least of which will be
an assured food supply for the workers
of the city.
It is apparent that the complete de-
velopement of the upper country will
practically double the population of
the state and increase the taxable pro-
perty of the state in a similar ratio.
This alone would well warrant much
greater effort than is now being put
forth for state development.

BOLT TO WILSON.

Joseph E. Davis, of Wisconsin sec,

Committee, announces that kuooipi
Spreckles, of California, and Johh D.
Blaine, of Wisconsin, both supporters
of United States Senator Robert M
La Toilette in his campaign Tor the

According to tentative plans OF the
Democratic managers, the organiza-

and will make an active fight in sup

In reply to a telegram from Sena'

SOME REVELATIONS PROMISED

Senator Penrose admitting that he
received $4,000 check from the
Standard Oil Co., IN 1904, declared
in the United States Senate that the
$4,000 was a part of a $125,O0O con-
tribution made to the Roosevelt cam
paign fund by the Oil Trust. Sena-
tor Penrose, in his statement to the
Senate, broadly intimated that the
time was coming when a great many
interesting details about contribu-
tions to the 1904 campaign would be
given out. Commenting on Theodore
Roosevelts declaration that he knew
nothing of the Standard Oil contribu-
ton, Penrose said that he was tired
of seeing the people gulled by de-
NAL that insinuated that some other
man was liar"
When the real truth as to the
source of the Republican funds of
1904 and 1908 becomes known, the
people of the country will stand ag-
hast when they contemplate the hy-
pocrisy and chicanery that has been
employed by men in high public posi-
tions-themselves the direct benefc-
iaries of the very practices which they
SO vehemently deny.
It will be remembered that Judge
Parker, the Democratic presidential
nominee in 1904, was practically de-
nounced as "liar" by Theodore
Roosevelt when the Judge charged
that the large corporations were con-
tributing to the Roosevelt campaign
fund. Many incidents, happenings
and disclosures, within the past eight
wears, have tended to prove that
Judge Parker knew what he was talk
ing about in 1904.
The country is eagerly awaiting the
further developments that have Deen
virtually promised by Senator ZEN
rose.
These occurrences are daily max
ing more certain the election OF WOOD
row Wilson and Thomas r. MarShali
men who are so we'll known TO DC
above and beyond reach of the TAINTED
money of the trusts and monopolles.

Advice TO Negroes.

Negroes were urged to "qult slt-
tinn around barber shops and COM
pls:nin gof their troubles If they want
to succeed" in an address by Charles
Banks. of Mount Bayou. La, before
the National Negro Business League
Convention in Chicago recently.
"Loafing in the streets and barber
shops and complaining of hard luck
never will mean advancement for the
negro" said Banks, who is vice-pres-
ident of the league. complaints and
wailing never will do any good; the
negro must work to better himself
Talk will never do it A barber shop
is usually the first place negro goes
when he has nothing else to do. There
he finds companions who are also idle.
II becomes a habit with the negro to
90 to this same barber shop day in
and dav out, to complain about the in
ability to get work instead of going to
look for it."
aufacturers of hair preparations,
~. advertised their productions tc
"tske kinks out of the Negroes hair,
were characterized as "an insult to
the women of the negro race" by fe-
male delegate from Ws7h;"'-+o'' y. G.

teleeraphed that he would assist Mr..
snrec,sels in perfecting the organiza-
ton of the league. :,
1t was said that Mr.. Spreckies
would organize the Western DIVISION
of the league at San Francisco, then
come to Chicago and organize the
Middle Western division and finally
90 to New York to open an Eastern
headquarters.
Allied with Mr.. Spreckles and Mr.
Blaine in this work vii be Charles r,

A. S. Burleson, of Texas, chairman
of the Democratic campaign speakers
bureau, arrived in Chicago yesterday
to assist leaders already on the
ground. He will 60 to Maine to make
series of speeches there during the
State campaign and then will return
to Chicago to remain through the ma
tional campaign.
E. NJ. Grossman, of St. Louis, was
another arrival at Democratic head
quarters yesterday. He will act as
an assistant treasurer during the
campaign.
