UNITED STATES SENATOR-ELECr
PAUL o. HUsTTNe was in Milwaukee
wednesday morning and was guest
at the Plankinton house.
Mr.. Husting emphatically declares
that the stories in regard to any dis
agreements over patronage between
himself and other democratic leaders
in the state of the Wilson faction are
absolutely without foundation. Ee
said:
81 have given the subject of patron
age very little thought and have as
yet not decided on single recon-
mendation on the subject. All letters
am receiving on patronage questions
/ am filing for future reference. So
far as | am concerned / have not
heard of any candidacy on the part OF
William H. Timlin for the position of
United States district attorney, and L
have no information which would lead
me to believe he is candidate. L
also want to say this is the last at
tention which shall pay to any stories
of the character that have been in
circulation the last few days. When
L decide on any recommendations for
appointments | shall announce them
in the press Immediately after notify
ing the appointees of my il tended
recommendations"
OF course the stories published by
republican papers, columns in length
giving credence to the stories have
not been refuted.

Our people would be quite as well
governed-yes better governed-with
a third or more of the taxes wiped
away. The waste now is enormous,
onerous, outrageous; and decreased
taxes will quickly enough result in
decreased waste. The remedy lies in
the legislature, to lop down and lop
off expensive appropriations. There
probably is not a single department
of the state government wherein
economy cannot be practiced without
detriment to the public service. Ger
tainly this assertion is true with ref
erence to the commissions and
bureaus, few of which have any rela-
tionship whatever to the constitution
al offices through which solely the
government was administrated so
well from the organization of the
state until within these recent disas-
trous years. What is now most de-
sirable is an elimination 10 con-
siderable extent of these commissions
and bureaus, and the inclusion of all
that remain in the constitutional de-
partments where q direct authority
may be exercised over them. Now
they are high and mighty above all
the elective state officers, governor
included. Taxes must go
lower. Incidentally, then, we shall
have a better government, safer,
saner government, less obnoxious
and inquisitive government. That is
what Wisconsin citizens want, and
that is what they will have. With
nothing less will they be satisfied

Numbering Houses.

The now almost universal custom of
numbering private houses so that they
can be easily identified is only little
more than 400 years old. 1t was In the
year 1913 that this idea struck the
fancy Of a Partisan architect. but it
was not until nearly three centuries
later that the system became at all
general
In Berlin an eccentric method OF
numbering the houses was first adopt
ed They were numbered without any
reference whatever to the name of the
street. A tenants address would be
described merely as 1000 Berlin" In
st. Petersburg an excellent way OF dis
playing the numbers is employad-lit-
tie lanterns bear the numbers on the
glass. so that they can be seen after
dark. I'm the later Stuart times" says
Macaulay, ''the houses of London were
not numbered. and there would, indeed.
have been little advantage fin number
ing them, for Of the coachmea, char

100 Years of Peace Between Eng
Laud and u. S.

The people of the United States and
Great Britain observed on Thursday
the one hundredth anniversary of the
signing of the treaty of Client by re-
minding themselves that the day
marks century of peace among
English speaking nations.
The original plans called for series
of celebrations in this country and
across the water. 1t was to have be-
gun in Client on Christmas eve with
banquet given by the burgomaster
to fifty representatives of the United
States, fifty Englishmen, and fifty
Canadians in the hall where the treaty
was signed, but this is upset by the
fact that The ancient Belgian city is
occupied by the Germans, with whom
England is at war.
To mark the day, the American COM
mittee and the British committee,
which have been arranging for the
peace centenary, issued communica-
tions for simultaneous publication in
the newspapers in England and the
United STATES.
The British statement expresses the
hope that 1.-THE disarmed frontier be-
tween the United States and Canada
may long continue as an example to
the world of the safe defense of mu-
tual respect and trust in the affairs of
nations" and prays that the ''peace
between the British and American
democracies which has so long endur-
ed may never be broken"
1.-THE time will soon come, we hope,
when we can announce, new time
table for the celebration of the hun
dred years peace" the Baitish state
ment adds, "when the story of what
the English speaking peoples have &C
complished may bring good cheer and
fresh courage to world exhausted by
war. Meantime we salute our Amer

THE closeneSs of the vote on Hob
sons national prohibition amend
ment in the house last Tuesday led
his supporters to say that they will
try again with the next congress. All
admit that defeat was expected, not
only by the advocates of the measure
but by its supporters, but the sup
port they have received has
given them encouragement to new
effort. The vote by which the amend
ment was defeated was 1877 to 1S9.
Although this was majority of the
votes cast, the amendment failed OF
adoption because a two-thirds vote is
necessary for the adoption of all
amendments to the constitution of
the United States. Had the amend
ment been in the form of a bill or
resolution proposing new legislation
it would have passed, as the prohibi-
tionists had a majority of eight votes
on the decisive roll call.
