taees over the present system:
4. All stockDen vill b treated
alike regardless Of their standing,
the smaller shipper being on an
equality with the larger shipper
\ 2. Claims will be adjusted
promptly and ssocknen will get
something for their cattle killed
where nov they are able TO collect
for less than half Of the number of
animals killed.
3. BY IN arrangement with the
Stock Inspection Board, monthly
inspection of the records and the
brands worn by cattle killed can be
had and known owners notified in
time 10 present claim and collect.
At the present time il is estimated
that so per cent of the cattle killed
are unknown to the railroads and
are never settled for because the
owner is unable TO make claim.
T. A uniform system of proce-
dure on all railroad lines in the
state and settlemsnts without re
course TO the courts.
5. The avoidance of dispute as
to value Of animals killed or as TO
liability of railroad company for
damage and an automatic and
uniform adjustment OF all claims
with a minimum amount of incon-
venience TO the claimant.
The acceptance Of this agreement
by the stockmen cannot prevent any
stockman, who may desire, from
taking his claim into court. It's
adoption by this Association would
involve at lesst moral obligation to
abide BY the agreement 20 long as
the railroads carry out their part in
good faith This proposed agree
ment virtually puts half Of the loss
Of stock killed by railroads upon
the owner of the stock. Where the
railroad he's been negligent, we
maintain that the owner is entitled
TO full damage, but the difficulty Of
proving negligence often makes il
impossible to collect eren though
there may be no do.bt in the mind

SOCIALISTS GAN NOT AGREE
ON COMMISSION SYSTEM OF CITY
GOVERNMENT.
Declared 1t Is easier to Buy Five
Commissioners Than SO
Aldermen.

Indianapolis, May 15.-After hour
of debate on whether the commission
form of municipal government was
in accord with the socialist program,
the party's national convention re-
ferred the matter to the state or
CARNATIONS.
Too many angles were presented by
speakers from many states, it was de-
termined, to admit a definite stand be-
ing taken either for or against the
commission form by the national
party.
j. Stitt Wilson, mayor of Berkeley,
Cal, declared that socialists in Cali
fornia had found the non-partisan
method Of electing members of COM
missions had scattered the vote of
Capitalist parties and worked to the
advantage of the cohesive socialist
party
He was bitterly opposed by dele
gates that described the municipal
commission as ''only a measure of
economy in the development of the
capitalist machine"
"Capitalists have found it easier to
buy five commissioners than SO alder
men," said Thomas Hickey, of Hal
lettsville, Tex.

TO PROVIDE TENTS
FOR FAIR VISITORS
Board of Agriculture Expects
to Adopt Housing Plan.
HOTEL MEN ARE INDIGNANT
Declare Fair May Lose Their Finan-
cial Support IF the Plan of Erect
ing Sleeping Quarters in Corner Of
Park Is Carried Out.

Milwaukee.-If plans of Secretary
OF agriculture are adopted, out-Of-
town visitors at the 1912 state fair
may make their home during the
week on the fair grounds. Arrange
ments have been made to supply
tents, cots, etc, to all applicants at
a nominal cost. The camp will be
in the grove back of the administra-
ton building.
Milwaukee hotel proprietors are
indignant over the plan of the state
fair board to provide tents for the
accommodation of visitors. The no.
tel men say that the plan would not
work, and would have a bad effect
upon their business.
A member of the fair board says
that although the plan had not been
formally put before the board, it had
been the intention of several of the
members for several years to inau-
gurate such system for the con-
venience of the farmers who come to
the fair with several children and
find it difficult to secure accommo-
dations in the city hotels. He said
that he had little doubt but what
the plan would be adopted by the
board at its next meeting.
Under the plan, each family will
be able to secure a single or a dou-
BILE tent at a reasonable cost.
The hotel proprietors have con-
tributed large stakes for the races
each year, and it is said by several
that this support might be withdrawn
if the plan was adopted.

COACH RICHARDS RESIGNS
Refusal of University Faculty to Ex-
cuse Athletes from Military Drill
Is Given as the Reason.

Observation-Disclosures the action of
the University Of Wisconsin faculty
in forcing athletes to take military
drill to the exclusion of athletics,
John R. Richards, head coach of the
Wisconsin baseball and football
teams, has severed his connection
with the university.
That the faculty action in refus-
ing to excuse athletes from military
drill makes it absolutely impossible
to place competitive athletics on an
efficient basis at the university is the
reason Coach Richards gives for his
action.
The connection of John r. Rich
ards with Wisconsin athletics has
been notable one. In 1895 he was
captain of the football team. For
four years he was member of the
varsity track team, holding the con-
In 1894 he was a member Of the

the country

DE|TZ DOOMED
TO LIFE TER
SUPREME COURT OF WISDOM
REFUSES TO OVERRIDE JUDO
MENT OF CONVICTION.
FINDS AMPLE EVIDENC
That He was Responsible for II
Death of Oscar Harp in the
Battle of Cameron Dam
Last Year.

Madison, Wis, May 15.--John r.
DeltZ of Cameron Dam fame, who last
fall was sentenced to life imprisonment
on the charge of numbering Oscar
Harp, deputy sheriff, during the siege
on the Deitz homestead, must remain
in prison, according to a ruling of the
supreme court of Wisconsin today,
which refused to reverse the Judgment
OF conviction. Deitz was sentenced to
life Imprisonment.
In closing the decision upon the
Deitz case, the supreme court says:
AS a result of the defendants de-
lance OF law, Oscar Harp, who was in.
nocent of wrong, went to his death,
After a patient and fair trial the de-
PENDANT has been found guilty of that
death upon ample evidence.
Pity the defendant as we may, we
have no choice, of course on this rec
ord. 1t i Sas true now as it was in
the days Of Hebrew prophets, that he
who sows the wind must needs be con
tent if he be compelled to reap the
inevitable whirlwind.'"
In their arguments to the supreme
court, Deitz' present attorneys en-
phasized the point that three able and
experienced attorneys were assigned
to prosecute him, and that the Judge
should have appointed counsel for the
defendant They declared that the
trial judge himself afterwards had
stated that the case should be re-
viewed by the supreme court.
The state contented itself with the
argument that the whole evidence
upon the trial was Of such overwhclm-
ing weight as to leave no room for
speculation as to his guilt and no
room for doubt that justice had been
done.
