High School Notes

The student body of the James
John High School was greatly sad
dened Monday by the news of the
death OF Sam Bugbee, a member OF
the sophomore class.
The funeral services were held at
the Baptist church Tuesday after
noon. The students aud teachers
accompanied the remains from the
undertaking parlors to the church,
whence they went to Columbia
cemetery. Twelve OF the High
school boys acted as pail bearers.
The floral offerings were carried by
six of the girls.
The school made manifest in a
material way their sorrow by beau
tiful floral offerings, but the utter
sadness and deep grief OF the stu
dents could not have been more elo'
quently expressed than il has been
by the hush that has pervaded all the
work OF the school during the
week. To the stricken fam
lily the school offers its deepest
sympathy.
The gymnasium floor is now be-
ing vanished and we hope it will
be ready for the girls return basket
ball game with Beaverton hext
week.
The list of pupils having library
privileges, which is posted on the
bulletin board, is attracting much
attention these days. II is inter
esting to note that twice as many
have the required average OF IS per
cent. this month as last.
On account of a severe sore
throat, Mr., Fry was compelled to
be absent Monday and Tuesday.
His classes carried on their labora-
tory and other work as best they
could in his absence, but we were
glad to welcome him back on We'd
nesday.
Last Friday the two basket ball
teams, accompanied by a few root
ers, journeyed to Park Place, where
double -header game was played.
The game became intensely inter
esting toward the end, as every one
expected a tie; but at the last mo-
ment our boys made a basket, re-
sulting in a score of 80 to 2S.
But the girls were not so success
full because of the fact that Myrtle
Dickie fell and hurt her foot during
the first part of the game. Yet il
is hoped that the old saying, "A
bad beginning makes a good end
ing" holds true; and so we look
for some later victories.

Investigated the charge took occa-
sion to denounce in unmeasured
terms a primary system which
made it necessary for men to spend
large sums Of money to secure a
nomination at the hands of the
people. 1t was all right, however,
for the opponents of Mr.. Stephen
son to disburse large sums, but all
wrong for him to do the same, for
the simple reason that he no long
er trained with the crowd who
have made politics a farce in this
state. The people we're put to an
expense of about a hundred thous-
and dollars because of the spleen
and vindictiveness of one man, who
sped across the country to unseat
the man, who had spent a quarter
of a million dollars in financing his
campaigns IN the past and now he
turns against his old friend be-
cause he has no further use for
him. Such is gratitude upon the
part of some men.

Special Session of Legislature.

Gov. McGovern has called a
special session of the legislature 10
convene at the state capital, April
90, to consider and act on the fol-
lowing ten subjects:
I. To make an appropriation
and grant relief to the city of Black
River Falls, its citizens and others
in the immediate vicinity thereof
who suffered foss In the flood OF
October E, 1911, to permit a dam
to be built along Black river at
this point, and to make provision
for the construction of a retaining
wall that will protect the city from
further injury.
2. To appropriate money or
make other provision for the i'm
provement of the levee system in
and about the city of Portage in the
counties of Columbia and Sank to
protect life and property in the
valleys of the Fox and Wisconsin
rivers.
z. To enact laws for the con-
struction of dams and the regula-
ton and development of water
powers.
d. To amend sections 1868 and
4432 of the statutes relating to
weights and measures.
S. To amend chapter 452 of the
laws of 1911, pertaining to public
lands.
s. To validate elections held on
April 2, 1912, and to amend the
primary and general election laws.
7 To enact laws relating to associ-
atoms transacting insurance bust
ness on the Llyods' plan.
8. To enact legislation relating
to home rule for cities.
9. TIE enact legislation relative
to the protection of fish and game.
10. To make an Apr opriation
to cover expenses incurred by the
legislative reference department in
preparation for and during such
pecial session.

counties, the other matters could

would neither be fair nor just. The
disposition to tax has become a
mania in both state and nation,
that there may be more money to
waste in extravaganza. But then,
the idea which is actuating most of
our lawmakers is to sock it, to
the men who have saved something
and distribute it among those who
have been less fortunate IN the ac-
emulation of shekels, and make
wealth bear its rightful proportion
of taxation, for it is a notorious
fact, that capital does not pay in
in the same proportion as those of
small taxable valuations.

Anent the Income Tax.

A federal income tax bill has
passed the lower branch of congress
and should it pass the senate and
be signed by the president, Wis
consin will be up against perplex-
ing and irritating problem. The
bill passed by the house of repre-
sentatives provides for a federal
tax on all incomes exceeding $1,000
per annum, and our state law on
all incomes exceeding 81 200 per
annum, so that should we have g
federal income tax, all incomes II
the state exceeding $4,000 would
pay double tax which

Initiate. Referendum and Recall.

We hear a good deal these days
relative to a recall, referendum and
initiative. At the present time, the
people have the power to make
choice of officers, judicial and ad-
ministrative, and it is theif fault if
they elect men to office who are I'M
worthy Of trust and confidence, and
they can change them at the end OF
the terms for which they are elect
ed, and if they violate law they can
be impeached. AS to the referen-
dunn, it is now in force in this
state, for a. the last general cleo
ton three acts of the legislature
were submitted to the electors for
either their approval or rejection,
and two of the acts were approved
and one rejected, although, only
about 48 per cent Of the votes cast
IN the state were registered for or
against the acts submitted, which
demonstrated, that but a minority
of the voters take any interest and
are Indifferent in such matters. And
as to the initiative, there is no law
to prevent the people from petition
ing the legislature for the enact
ment of such laws as shall be of
general interest; not local or indiv-
idual. At the next general election
the electors of the state will vote on
the question of female suffrage, the
same having been submitted to q
vote by the last Legislature.
