Too Much of 1t.

No reasonable being wants ''unreg-
ulated individualism anarchy. 1t is
a question of degree; of overregula-
ton, and its concomitant, Overtaxa-
ton, in this state.
We are all agreed that reasonable
regulation is necessary, and that some
of the state commissions are indispen-
sible agents for regulation.
But one can have too much of good
thing; so much too much that it can
become bad thing.
A proper dose of a given drug may
be good for your insides. A double
dose may put you on your back for a
week. A treble dose may put you in
the cemetery.
The complaint of the opponents of
the High Takers is in part that the
commissions are too numerous and too
expensive; that it is the plain duty of
the peoples representatives at Madison
to formulate and apply economics for
the relief of the taxpayers; that grow
ing overregulation by multiplying and
ubiquitous politically interlocking COM
missions is running the state into So
cialism; that the appropriation by the
last legislature of that $50, 598, 100
(meaning an increase of over 400 per
cent in twelve years. marks ruinous
prodigality that must be checked to
save the solvency and prosperity of the
state.
We can not go on at that progress
sive" rate of living indefinitely without
a smash.
The cost of high living for the state,
Mr. McGovern, has become material
and rasping factor in the high cost of
living for the ordinary taxpayer.
The per capita tax in Wisconsin is
$3.50, as against $3.7 in Illinois.
A state government in these times
that-whether through incompetency,
or extravaganza, or taste for Eighty
experiments, or political machine con-
struction- needlessly increases the high
cost of living for the citizens is bad
government.
1t is not to be made good one by
simply labelling itself progressive, .
by hymning its own praises, and but
tering itself thick with the oleomargar-
inc of self-laudation.
It's unctuous self anointments, SNUG
self-idolatries, obsequious genufexions
before the enshrined joss of its own
self-imputed virtues, are all shattered
and belied by the plain tale of every.
body's tax bills. Sentinel.

No EXCUSE that any citizen or any
official of the commonwealth or of a
municipality may offer will justify such
taxation as now embarrasses Wiscon-
sin people. Professor T. S. Adams of
the state tax commission is squarely up
against the impossibility. 1t makes
not whit of difference what he says
or the confusion of figures he gives, in
defense of this startling situation. The
simple fact is people are being over
taxed, enormously overtaxed. Of the
money taken out Of their pockets not
a copper comes back into those pock-
cts. And Professor Adams and his CO.
adjutors should know, and do know,
that municipal, village, county and
township activities are not responsible
for this extraordinary taxation. The
fault, and the sole fault, lies in the
legislature and in the party whose
headlong, radical policies are repre-
sented in this sort of reckiessness. None
of them can get away from the plain
truth. The people can not be fooled
about the matter. There is no explain
ation-that is, none that relieves in the
smallest degree the full and complete
responsibility of legislature and state
for the fearful taxation which we are
now enduring. Madison Democrat.

Radium i'm Cancer.

The motive power of this column is
optimism. We believe in the power of
publicity. But we deplore false optim-
ism and false publicity.
The current publication of falsely op-
timistic accounts of magical and ''cer-
tain cure" of cancer by radium is I'M
fortunate to say the least. The fact
that eminent physicians are quoted is
still more unfortunate. Their state
ments may not be false; but false de-
auctions and exaggerations are being
drawn from them.
The situation at present is not unlike
the history of the flying machine Sen
sible people did not sell their horses
and automobiles Immediately Wright
made successful flight Whatever
their dreams of the future might be,
they realized that period of most
hazardous experiments must precede
the perfection Of this new means of To-
comotion. The announcement of
claim of new cure of some disease
which has baffled medical science I'M
settles the reason of large portion of
the public. Such abandon tried and
efficient remedies, upon the first sug
gestion that better one may have
been discovered
Cold blooded analysis of results of
treatment with radium indicates that it
is useful in fair proportion of cases.
Equally good results are claimed for
the X-Ray treatment, which is more
available Neither has shown results,
as yet, which justify abandonment of
surgical removal of cancerous growths.
The London Radium Institute has had
more experience with radium in cancer
than anyone The directors may be
assumed to be optimistic, having pur-
chased more radium than any other in
stitution. In spite of very favorable
experience with radium, however, op-
Grafton is advised by them in all opef-
able cases.
Common sense and scientific consid-
erations demand, for the present, as
complete removal by surgical operation
as possible Following this, radium
and X-Ray treatment assist in remOv-
ing cancerous tissues which are indis-
tinguishable from healthy tissues, even
upon microscopic examination.

DURING the last few years good
many people have been vastly disturb
ed by the movement of Americans
across the border into Canada. APP
parently it was one of the needless
anxieties that the human race INDUCES
in. Certainly the tide is flowing back
as strongly as it ebbed. The Wiscon-
sin state board of immigration pub
lished the figures for the last six years
of emigration from this country to Can
ada. For three fiscal years, 1909-1O,
1901 and 1911-12, the number of
those who went to Canada exceeded
the number of those who moved from
Canada to the United States. But with
the year ending June 80, 1913, the bal
ance changed. The total number who
have gone to Canada in six years has
been GIG, 112, while 594, $40 have come
into the United States. A difference
of q, 900 in half dozen years cannot
be thought very. significant.

THERE is rank poison to all good and
safe government in this semi
Progressive scheme. It is put forward
to deceive the common people. 1t is a
scheme to build up fearfully eXpen-
sive piece of governmental machinery
which, like a cancer, demands the right
of way in everything. A large proper
ton of its pretensions to progress is a
Haunting lie that never originated in
necessity but in the scheming brains of
such men as LaFOllette, McGOvern,
Mccartney, Van Hise and others of like
ilk 1t has become thing of grievous
burden and oppression and the plain
people are heartily sick of it, and well
they may be. They call now for the
clearing away of this expensive Pro-
gressive fad ard return to more con-
'servative, common sense ideas of gov
eminent. The state government of
Wisconsin is going to be stripped of a
whole lot of the fads and furbelOws of
these progressive adventures by an
other class of men, men who will lead
us back to the more simple government
that was good enough for any man only
a few years ago. We are paying too
much to be governed. Our personal
liberties are invaded at every turn and
oppressive, meddlesome laws have been
passed until no man knows where he
is. All this prostitution of power, this
burdening of the taxpayer has made
the name, Progressive, stencil in the
nOstrils of the people. Fort Atkinson

Now is the season of the year when
Wisconsin taxpayers, benighted but
querulous, are invOluntarily furnishing
the means for a state commission and

eminent to make them recOnciled to the
