University Extension.

1t was an enthusiastic mass meeting
held at the city hall last Thursday even
ing in the interests of the cOrrespon-
dence cOurces of the extension division
OF the University of Wisconsin. Mayor
CRUDE presided. In an informal address
OF welcome he pointed out the new and
successful venture Of the state in ex-
tending university education by cores
pondence to the people of Watertown
who have contributed taxes for this very
thing and who ought to take advantage
of it.
Mr.. j. Fred Prentiss told why the
Twilight Club got behind the idea and
why it arranged for this mass meeting.
He told how successful men OF the town
endorsed the university correspondence
courses, and wished to see old as we'll as
young people improve their education
by means of the great opportunities
afforded.
I. j. Sullivan, Milwaukee represent
alive Of the extension division lectureC
and explained in detail the advantages
and the workings of the correspondence
courses. He explained how engineering
and business organization and political
sciences,in fact,everything collected and
taught at the University, is being trans
mitted by correspondence to people
who find neither the time nor the con
venience to attend the school at Madl
son. He showed how the state cOulC
afford to educate cheaper than CONNER
cidl correspondence schools. The fac
that man or woman is associated with
the state university, ranked as one o
the greatest in the world, is salts

occupancy having been delayed few
days by the non arrivaI of the furniture.
The interior If the building is exceed
ingly Pleasing to the eye, the walls and
floors being of Vermont white marble
and the trimmings of Tennessee dark
marble. The wood fnish in the lobby,
which is spacious, is of stained mahog-
any and the windows are of plate glass
The wood finish in the working rooms is
of Georgia pine, and there is plenty Of
room for much larger force than now
employed. There is we'll finished and
furnished private Office for the pOstmas-
ter and one for the post office inspectors
when they shall visit the Office officially.
The building is heated with steam and
equipped with the latest improvements
including shower-bath and there are
Ais draws and boxes. The welfare Of
the office force has not been neglected,
there being private room for their con-
venience. Joseph G.. Johnson, the gov

Your Soils Salvation,

1t is estimated that over S25,000,000 is
actually wasted by Wisconsin farmers
each year. This vast comes from lack
of proper use of farm manures. OF
course a lot Of he manure is used in the
fields and increased crops result. This
large item Of waste indicates well the
real value of farm manures. More and
better live stock is the slogan for the
special live stock train, which is being
run by the College Of Az iCuiture Of the
University If Wisconsin and the Wisc0n-
sin Live Stock Breeders Association in
corporation with the Chicago and North
Western Railroad and the Chicago, Mil
waukee and ST. Paul Railroad and which
Will stop here Saturday April 6 from
1916 p. N. till 6:35 p. m. More live
stock will produce more farmyard ma
nure and the salvation Of your sol is
increased fertility. SO you see you will
get a double profit if you keep more and
better live stock. Experts from the Col
Iege of Agriculture will be on the train

THE WAGE Or OUR
D|SRESPECT FOR LAW

to brusquely tell him to first swear
to complaint. There are times
when such is a perfectly correct
answer as a matter of discretion;
but there are exceptions. The po-
lice should know where publicity
and even where reliable informa-
ton is privately furnished, assume
the manly duties of his exalted Of
fee. Is crime suppressed by TAX
ing the initiative, then follows, no
likelihood of forfeiture of his bond
In civil process, as constable, he
is entitled to hesitate on the ex-
cuse of a danger of such forfeiture.
Not so in the trust of custodians
of public decency. A mayor of a
neighboring metropolis had a vice
of returning an epigramatic re-
tort to innocent seekers for law S
enforcement. This brought him
publicity which in turn caused
some ignorant few to admire him
and try to copy his ways. Politi-
cally, this assumed paragon" is
dead-he is unhonored, unsung and
urwept-a political nonentity and
exile, though, if he had not this
fatal vice, his talents are so superb
as to be able to have been any
publicist's equal.
Another mayor of a larger me.
tropolis allowed former terms oil
office to expire in like sinister ways
but fearing oblivion, he sought his
present term just to redeem his
personal reputation so lost.
He began to and actually did
show himself a self-assertive and
manly in the enforcement of laws

and suppression of rampant vice.
Now all fellow-Americans, through
the sweep of this big country, hail
him as a great mayor and extraor-
binary man and his former oppon-
ents place about his name, a wreath
of oratorical laurels. 1t pays to
obey, respect and enforce the laws
of your country and rise up to the
full measure of a man.

What about our police force?

What about our police force?
How do they stand on the ques-
ton of efficiency and for the re-
spect and equitable enforcement of
the laws?
Citizens and our taxpaying pub
lie are interested in this depart
ment of city administration. 1t
should be an important and reas-
onably self assertive onel Is it
really such2
To avoid embarrassment and a
wide divergence of opinions, the
reader must answer this himself.
But be fair in your conclusions.
The present standard of the
same is not one tor which
material blame can be put on its
members, as such. 1t is matter
of tradition, of sufferance or toler-
alton or Indifference of our public
that it may not be all you expected
it to be. However, it seems that
there should be more initiative be-
cause the laws of our country lodge
with it much uncommon authority
and liberty of action to prevent OF
suppress crime and misdemearors
and the statutes do not take this
power from it. Just as the sheriff
is the highest officer of the county
so should the police force asser
itself when inequalities and &C.
knowledged lawlessness holds its
blighting sway over the city's
growth.

lice is to always break the spirit O.

In his address viii III was listened to
with interest by all the members Of the
club present, about hundred, he said
many good things among which was:
"lf you want a bigger city, build it
yourself: Don't forget Watertown when
you invest: Don't expect other men with
big sums of money to come here and
build factories for you, because they
won't: Build them yourself: In this work
you must be unified" He deprecated
lverse criticism Of the expenditures for
public schools; of the need Of advertis-
ing. Canada last year spent about a
million dollars in advertising in news
papers in the United States; Unim-
proved lands should be improved AID
thus add to the assessed value of the
state; Spoke of the immense amount of
barley raised in the state and the mar
velOus growth Of the dairying industry
and gave much valuable advice.

Mohave County miner., 1912-05-25

Louis LeBarr, who returned to his camp in Copper Basin yesterday, states that there is no disguising the fact that the district is assuming more i'm. portance since the big strike made on the Comm ercial than most people ap. preciate, hardly a day passing but what representatives of large mining con- cerns arrive to investigate that field. He states that he is driving tunnel to cut the vein on his properties at depth and is in 250 feet, the ore body being struck few days ago. As to the extent of the ore shoot, he is un- able to state, but will continue opera. tions indefinitely. He contemplates installing machinery and took out large amount of supplies. He has been operating at different times for the past three years, and is located less than one-half mile from the Con- mercial holdings on the northeast side of the Basn.-Prescott Journal Miner.

Vindicator Company.

The Vindicator Co. output for the month of April, at Cripple Creek to. tailed fifty-four cars shipped by the company from the main shaft, the av- craze value of which was, as usual, 3O$ ton, while the leases shipped twenty five cars of ore, the average value be. ing 25$ a ton. There are three sets of leasers working in the main shaft. They are Muelhausen X Co.,. operating on HOO and 1000; Price x Co.,, on the 1000 and Shatz x Co.,, on 900. All of these are working in ore and making a fair production. On the 1,500 foot lev el, which is the deepest level the con- pany is able to operate, because of water conditions. drill has been start ed toward the north and has been run in a distance of 50 feet. It is expected that the first ore body will be opened at a point about 80 or 100 feet from the heading of this drift. The south drift on the 1,50O-foot level is being run to connect with a drift which comes from the Christmas shaft. In April l9l feet of drift was completed which is an ex- cellent record, in face of the fact that the drift is we'll filled with water from the course which was tapped some 40 days ago. Between the headings of the two drifts there remains about 65 feet. In order to keep the water just below the station at l,5OO it is necessary to lift about 100 gallons a minute, using an air lift. This extra water accumulates from the water course on 1,5O0.-Mining Age.
