NEW SPEED RECORDS.

There is no use in protesting against
the speed craze Of the day to the man
who wants speed above everything
else. But we wonder if the thousands
of followers who merely try to speed
mp because they think speeds the
thing" may not now and then stop to
ask, Why?

says MIR. Roethe. II lost out on them
then because was five years ahead of
The times. AT the last session of the
legislature | offered amendments to cut
out one million Of new buildings from
the university bills. On appropriation
bills voted yes" forty-one times and
mo" seventy-three times. Of the
$25, 600, 600 appropriations for two years
passed by the last legislature | voted
mo" on 500, 600, 900. Why? Because
II thought the appropriation was not
needed or the amount was too much.
The only one OF the big budget bills
that received my vote was the one for
charitable and penal Institutions; The
three other. huge bills, the highway
bills, the department bills and the
university and normal bills voted
against. T"

legislature of which | was member
voted for as few appropriations as |. .
To accomplish a saving of $4,000, 600
Mr.. Roethe gives long list of depart
ments that should be abolished and APP
preparations that should be reduced.
He would stop buying land at the diff
ferent institutions, would repeal the
state highway law, the tax commission,
board Of public affairs, would stop
jungleizing" northern Wisconsin; exit
board Of forestry; would abolish the
FIRE marshars office; county board of

WAR !! LIKELY.
U. S. BattIeship Blown Up-Nine
Hundred Sailors Killed.

The unpleasantness with Mexico is at
fever heat.
President Wilson gave Huerta till G
p. m. Sunday to salute flag as demand
ed. This the would-be dictator of Mex
leo refused to do.
Monday the President read message
to congress asking for approval to call
upon armed forces of the United States
in such ways and to such extent as
may be deemed necessary to bring
Huerta to time.
The q. S. Senate halts act granting
such power, while majority of congress
are in accord with the president.
Later Ships have been ordered by
President Wilson, without waiting for
congress to pass resolution, TO seize
the custom house at Vera Cruz in time
to prevent large shipment of arms
and ammunition for Huerta to be land
ed there. This precipitated battle, re-
sulting in the capture Of Vera Cruz,
the killing Of four hundred Mexicans
and four followers of the stars and
stripes. No account Of wounded.
Another late report is to the effect
that Charge d Affairs O'Shaughnessy
has been murdered in Mexico City.
Latest AS the above was completed
for the press it was flashed throughout
the country by wire that the u. s. Bat
tleship Louisiana had been blown up in
the harbor of Vera Cruz, and that 900
soldier sailors were killed.
And what did Gen. Sherman say?

THE RAID ON TAXPAYERS.
Nvening Wisconsin.


Expense, extrayagant expense, goes
with the commission system. The
practice has been to start each new
commission on a modest scale and let
it grow The Railroad Commission in
the year 1900 cost the state only seven
thousand dollars. Contrast this with
the $165, goo which is required to main
tain it now The Tax Commission,
which gave occupation to eleven peo-
pie in 1900, and cost seventeen thous-
and dollars, now constitutes an official
army OF two hundred and fifty-four
people, and costs one hundred and fifty
seven thousand dollars a year TO sup
port.
The state university fund has in
creased from 1888, Ol5 in 1900 to 81, 37S, e
sos in 1913.

REAL VS.. TECHNICAL oFFENsE.

Milwaukee Free Press.
When American citizens have been
murdered and American property has
been wantonly destroyed by the Mexi-
can bandit soldiery, President Wilson
and his state department have not
budged
When the citizens of friendly nations
have been tortured or killed, and their
property eondscated, by this same sol
derry the president and his administra-
tion have lent a deaf ear.
But when this soldiery arrests a few
American marines by mistake and then
refuses to salute the flag in reparation,
there is all sorts Of high jinks at che
Whitehouse and in the state depart
mgut,
The incubation of respect for the
American flag and the American uni
form on the part of foreign nations is
a necessary thing, but it is a hollow re-
spect at best if unattended by respect
for American citizenship, by respect
for the American government
The flag after all is only a symbol
the uniform is only a symbol They
deriye their significance and value from
The character OF the nation which they
represent, and the character Of its

dent Wilson demand respect for our
flag and for our uniform on the part of

ing to call in the uniform to bulwarl1
the rights and liberties Of American
citizens?
Who shall blame the Mexican official
if he cannot realize the administra-
TONS latest attitude, that it is more
heinoos to refuse a salute to the flag
than it is to murder an American citi-
zen; that the false arrest Of a couple
OF American marines is a war breeding
offense, while the slaughter of a hun
bred odd American citizens is pacific
commonplace?
Should the Mexican federal authori-
hes persist in their refusal to salute
the stars and stripes the reason is to
be found in the lack Of respect for the
American government which the VIII
son policy of "watchful waiting" has
bred; a lack of respect equally mani
tested on the part of the Constitution
alists in the Benson case.
What a sad commentary on the ma
.ional ethics Of the Wilson administra-
ton it would be if this technical affront
we're to precipitate those sterner meas
lres which all the slaughter Of innocent
Americans, all the destruction of their

have cost this country $50, 900 to keep
watchful eye on Mexico the last three
years. There was a time, only one,
when perfect peace prevailed in un-
civilized Mexico 1t was before it was
peoped.
