When Superintendent A. C. Kings

to the members of the Monday Night
club on Monday night in the high school

In his Introductory DR.. Mccarthy
said that We owe good deal to the
men we have met and as pupil Of
Professor Hutchins, his efforts had in
spired the speaker to pursue his chosen
work. He then spoke of Professor
Hutchins dying without penny but
that he had left name that will live
long. A nation like China that is not
willing to make sacrifices perish, but

DR.. Mccarthy laughed at the ide a
that he came to defend himself. For
fourteen years he had been drafting
the laws of Wisconsin for the members
of the legislature, after being student
in Europe and elsewhere. He smiled
at the statement that he is sometimes
called the "bill milf of the Legislature
and says that he is often assailed but

Jokes ON Legislators
He said the other day an old gentle
man walked into his room in the capitol
and remarked that there was some one
there who could frame law for him.
He said that he had been elected to the
Legislature and had pledged his friends
that he would do certain things
and that he was a man WHO
made his word good. The old
gentleman said that he had gone to
lawyer to have him frame the pro-
posed bills but that the lawyer wanted
to charge him $25 and the price was
too much. The old gentleman added
that some one told him there was a
man at Madison who would do it for
him and he had come to the capitol for
that purpose. He concluded by saying
that one of the things he wanted
knocked out was the ''MeCar thy bill
mill -
Mr.. Mccarthy then replied to the
venerable citizen and assured him that
he was then in the presence of the
'bill mill". The old man gave snort
AID went out. Oaughter.)
Another case of where a legislator
tried to kill the very thing the solons
uost need, an expert toframe laws that
will stand the test of the courts
and at the same time ''got his foot in
it." was Assemblyman Roethe. When
the solon came to the legislature early
in his career he went t. Mccarthy
with request to frame a number of
laws, one of which was to kill the leg
islative reference bureau. Mr.. McCar-
thy framed the bills for Mr.. Roethe
and the solon presented them. When
the bill came up for discussion in the
house some one asked the assemblyman
who framed thebills and he replied some
fellow in room up stairs to whom he
had been directed. All the solons
laughed and MIR. Mccarthy says he
thinks Mr. Roethe has not yet found
out what they were laughing at. Much
merrlment.
Mr.. McCarthy's lecture was filled
with cogent reasons why there must be
new legislation with the growing com
pick civilization. The introduction of
new machines, the massing of great
wealth and other phases of our civiliza-
ton makes this absolutely necessary.
The law should fit the body polite like
the clothing on man. That which was
suitable a century ago is obsolete today.
A shipper here, shipper there and a
shipper yonder, cannot deal with rail.
road. They must combine their
strength and this is a commission. Com
missions are courts and must give JUS
tice because the regular courts are
| too slow and the time and money
required to try cases too great.
A poor man cannot get justice
! in attempting to deal with a big
oil corporation. Commissions and laws
must be so constructed that they will
stand the test and as in building large
building, there must be architects ard
master builders. There was time when
a few men could get together and put
up building in day, but large struc-
lures of the present cannot be erected
in that way. They would fall.
Mr.. Mccarthy said he did not care
what the legislature might do, no one
could take away fourteen of the best
years of his life.

WEALTHY HUMANITARIAN BACKS PLAN
TO HELP THE DOWN and OUTER

LOS ANGELES, Cal. Dec. 80.
DR.. John II. Haynes, wealthy
humanitarian, is heartily in favor
of the proposed distribution of
California state lands to settlers
on 20-year payments, movement
which has been enthusiasticall
urged and which has already won
wide endorsement, and will prob
ably result in legislative action
in January.
Since 1896 the cost of food
has increased from 40 to 60 per
cent and wages have increased
not to exceed 20 per cent" said
DR.. Haynes. Such being the
case, II requires no argument to
show the necessity of bringing
our unoccupied land into use for
the production of food. This
would also give work to millions
of unemployed.
Vast sums are now lying idle
in repositories. Some of this
money together with liberal
credit, should be used to develop
these unoccupied lands. More
over, these lands should be taxed
at rate sufficiently high to
make 1t Improbable for the own
err to leave them unused or half
used.
"The state should actively as
sist men without capital to devel-
op these lands, and should also
provide expert agriculturists to go
from farm to farm giving free adj
vice to settlers wishing such aid
This would not be in any sense
an untried experiment.; it has
been done with marked success
for many years in New Zealand.
There the great sheep and cattle
pastures were taxed at such a rate
that the absentee landlords in
England we're glad to sell them
to the government, who, in turn,
after buying at fair price, sold
them on credit to bona-fide set
tiers.
In addition to the credit on
the land, they furnished the set
tiers with funds on credit to build
their houses and to buy imple-
