No MONEY FOR
MERR|MACK BRIDGE

The state of Wisconsin will not be
permitted to pay $50, 900 for the cree
ton and maintenance of wagon bridge
across the Wisconsin river at Merri-
mack as authorized by chapter $50 of
the laws of 1913. Tuesday the supreme
court held that that law is unconsti-
tutional because it is special law re-
lating to the subject of taxation. The
judgment of the court directs that the
writ of mandamus issued by Judge e.
Ray Stevens of the circuit court of
Dane county, directing tne highway
commission to proceed with the con-
struction of the bridge according to
law, be quashed.
The law provided that when certain
municipalities in Columbia and Sank
counties had raised and deposited with
the state treasure $40, 900 for the pur-
pose of building the bridge, thereupon
the highway commission should proceed
with the work of construction and the
state should pay sum not to exceed
$4,000. The money was raised by the
municipalities as follows: Village of
Merrimack, SIS, 900, town of Merrimack,
SIS, 600; town OF West Point, SIS, 600;
town of Caledonia, $1,000; village of
Lodi, 81, 900; town of Lodi, So, 900. The
highway commission questioned
validity Of the law and refused to
carry out it's provisions upon advice of
Attorney General Owen. The suit in
circuit court for the writ of mandumas
resulted, the writ was issued and ap-
peal taken with the results as indicat-
ed above.

FIRST Gun

On Tuesday evening the Republican
candidates in this county and others at
tended Republican meeting at Squires
hall in Delton. The addresses were by
Attorney James H. Hill of Baraboo and
r. B. Dickie of North FREEDOM and
were the first to be given in the county
during the present campaign. Attor-
ney Hill briefly criticised the admins
tration at Washington on account of
what had been done in regard to the
tariff. No one desired to return to
anti-bellum days, but he assured his
hearers that there was solid south on
the tariff question, for protection was
placed on all southern products and
removed from all northern ones. Be-
fore the new tariff law went into effect
there were no importations of corn,
wheat oats, potatoes an other north
ern grown harvests, but since the new
law went into effect many millions Of
! bushels of grain have come which has
resulted in reduction in price and loss
! to the northern farmers. The products
of the south in the meantime
have been protected as result of the
the law When the proposition came
to buy the present cotton crop it
was dropped like hot cakes for it was
soon seen that it would be just as well
to purchase the potatoes grown in the
north.
AS to the state questions he said that
no one wanted to turn every thing top
sy turvey, but to keep all the good
laws in active operation. The cost of
government should be reduced in Wis
consin and the speaker believed the Re-
publicans could better do this than the
Democrats for the latter were unac-
quainted with the laws and conditions.
He urged heavy vote for Attorney
E. F. Dithmar, the Republican candi-
date for lieutenant governor. He said
that he had always resided in this
county and should receive all the
votes in order that he have the full
home strength. He closed by speaking
a good word for all the other candi
dates. The other speaker was R. B.
Dickie, the Republican candidate for
assembly for this district. He urged
that the tax payers look we'll to the
government for it was the property
owners which must foot the bills. The
more the governm ent is expanded the
more money will be spent. He believed
that the school district, the town, the
village, the city and the county should
enjoy certain rights, but that money
should not be collected in one and
spent in another as is sometimes the
case under the present highway law.
G. w. Andrews, the county chair
man, presided. The secretary, Attorney
j. w. Frenz, was also present
