OCTOBER RAILWAY TRAFFIC
EXCEEDS ALL RECORDS

The receipts and the expenses of
the steam railways for the month OF
October, 1912, are greater than for
any other month in their history
Net operating revenue, which is the
gross income before anything has bee1
taken out for taxes and rentals, in
terest on bonds, appropriations for
betterments or dividends, averaged
$15.71 per mile of line per day, which
contrasts with s13.74 for October,
1911, an increase of s1.97. This is
an increase per mile of line for the
month of S61.13, or 14.4 per cent
The monthly summary of the Bu-
reau of Railway Economics, compil-
ed from the reports of railways TO the
Interstate Commerce Commission COW
ers for October 22O,636 miles of line
or about 80 per cent of all of the
steam railway mileage of the United
States. The aggregate net operat-
ing revenue for this mileage was
$107, 440,51S, which is greater by s14,-
$40, 125 than that for October, 1911.
The increases We're due in greatest
proportion to the freight traffic,
which is always greater in October
than in any other month of the year

of petit larceny of pipe wrenches,

peared for the state and Marr's attor
ney was George P. Hambrecht. A.
plea was made for leniency and Mari
threw himself ON the mercy of the
court. Marr made good for the stol-
en- goods. After taking all things
into consideration, Judge Pomainville
pronounced sentence of a fine of 81
and costs (Which made a total of SAL
O0) and 80 days in the county jail
Mari paid the fine and costs and

THE STEAM LAUN.
DRY WASHES
THE SHOE STORE

Stating off With, the presumption
that the reason they did not play
cards on the Ark was because Noah
stood on the deck, the NorInington
Brothers Bowling Team certainly
handed if to the Champs Monday
when they took the Gleue team into
camp by a to 0 score. This lis the
first time that the Gleues' have been
shut out this season. ALI this
commotion occurred on the east side
alleys. Glerle tried nobly to- rally
his shattered army and rolled up 203
in the last game but the victorious
washing machine, which was running
smoothly, would mot be denied and
made run away of it. We must, in
all respect, say for the Gleues' that
they stuck to the last and that altho
the buttons were ripped right off Of
them, they tried hard to sustain theil
reputation as winners. Mosher for
the Cinnamon did the best work get
ting 202 i'm the second game. One
of the Gleues tore his clothes and
borrowed a safe-tea pin from a by
stander so that he would be all to-
gether when he went home.

JUDGE PARKS
DECISION IN
ELECTION CASES
important Court Decision Has
Been Rendered by Judge
Parks on Voting.

Judge Park in his decision states in
reference TO those men that came
from the lumber camps and voted at
the election in Minocqua, claiming
that they had been there ten days
and had no other home, ais follows:
Il purposely refrain from argument
or comment in this decision, except
only to say that my study of the
statutes and the decisions of Our
supreme court, and also the evidence
in this case, including the custom
proven, forbids my agreement with
the argument and conclusions Of the
counsel for the defendants l think
both the law and public policy de-
mand a holding that men of the kind
and class of the above named Qum-
Der jacks) should not be permitted
to vote
This decision if upheld by the SUI
preme Court Will be the guide for
all state questions in Wisconsin on
this point and will put an end to
the practice heretofore iuldulged in
in many voting precincts.
OF course, it will be noted that
this decision does not affect any
laborer who has a fixed place of a.
bode, to which he periodically re-
turns no matter where he works and
his right to vote at such fixed place
of abode, but will operate, if sustain
ed, to put am end to the voting by
persons who have no fixed place of
residence who are not locatens for
temporary purposes Merrill Daily
