MURDER AT WAKEFIELD.
Two FinIanders Get Into An Alteration
and One Is Stabbed
to Death.

Wakefield was the scene of an
atrocious mu der the fore part of
the week. The body of a Finlander,
Matt Hangisto. was picked upabout
9 o clock Wednesday morning and
that he had been murdered was
evidenced by several knife gashes
in the man S breast. A man of the
same name is in Jail and the
authorities are of the opinion that
they have the person who COM
mitted the deed.
The story of the muder as near
as can be Learned d is that two cou-
sins of the same name, Matt Hang
isto, had been at Bessemer Tues
day and returned to Wakefield
Tuesday evening on the late train.
1t is thought that they got into an
alteration on the way to their
homes in the location and in TIE
fight that ensued one of the cou-
sins was stabbed to death.

Tax Cutting Hard Business.
(By Ellis B. Usher.)


The third month of the legislative
session is at hand and, as usual,
the perennial talk of a short ses-
sion has already gone glimmer-
ing. 1t is not a venturesome pre-
diction, however, the job of cutting
down state expenses, which is the
only way to proceed to reduce tax
es, is already one very doubtful of
accomplishment. This is not be
cause there IS not a body of earn
est legislators who want to reduce
taxes, and others who want public
approval, but because there is a
very definite opposition, even
though in the minority, and, more
important still, the job is a very
hard one. When anybody begins
to pull up any of these expensive
tax plants, by the roots, he is like
ly to find, clinginR somewhere
away off at the end of some unno-
ticed little fiber, the tentacle of a
corporation or special Interest"
that has been on friendly terms
with the reformers" or that crept
in on the log rolling plan. Mr..
Philip will have lot of surprises
of that sort, if he gets busy in dead
earnest, and he may discover queer
relationships among some of his
own jealous friends.
But there is a great deal to be
accomplished by bringing some of
these things to light and, among
them, is the uncovering Of some
very boisterous shouters of stop

testimony to establish the necessity
for retrenchment. Even Senator

Questions Forestry Decision.

A number of points in the recent
Supreme court decision declaring
unconstitutional the forestry plan,
are questioned by Chief Justice
Winslow of the court, IL an opinion
handed down on Friday.
The chief justice agrees without
discussion to the propositions that
that the constitutional amendment
was not passed because not agreed
to by the assembly at the second
session, that the contract is void
because the states debt limit is ex-
ceeded that the school funds should
be made good by an accounting,
that all moneys arising from the
school lands must become part of
the school funds, that these lands
were not placed by the constitution
under the exclusive control of the
commissioners of school and uni
versity lands, that these lands re-
main under control of the legisla-
ture which may sell them or
withdraw them, provided the mon
eys arising from them go into the
school funds and these trust
lands may be reforested.
MY point, says the chief jus
tice, is this: 1t so limits and cir
cumscribes the powers of the state
with regard TO reforestation and
afforestation that it leaves little
more than a shell behind. Atleast
this is theway the opinion impresses
me and the way l think it will be
generally understood.
There are three general pro
positions which l think should be
stated in this case clearly and fully,
without hedging them about with
limitations, qualifications and pro-
visos which render them practically
useless, and those propositions are
as follows:

whether III Wisconsin or elsewhere,
do not complain without cause.
They do not always protest, even
when there is crying need for pro-
test.
There is complaint of high taxes
in Wisconsin this year There is
reason for it.
The annual appropriations for
University and Normal school build
ings were excessive.
The appropriations for high
ways were much beyond theamount
which can be wisely and economi-
cally expended,
These appropriations doubtless
carried with them others which are
Justly open to criticism.
Such a course begets waste and
looseness in administration.
1t is no excuse to say that it is
not graft. that no dishonesty is
charged; that the money was APP
2ropriated for worthy purposes.
Those who conduct govern
ment assume grave responsibility.
The appropriation and expenditure
of the peoples money is the eX-
ecution of pubic trust. "
Some of my readers have remind
ed me that / am getting tiresome,
with my reiteration. Nobody is
more tired of it than 1. But even
Mr. LaFollette has recognized the
importance of the matter, and as
his friends are apt to yawn over
my wearisome efforts, I trust that

Baker Law Amendment Failed.

The proposed amendment to the
Baker saloon law which has been
before the committee of the legis-
lature was voted down on Tuesday
of this week, the committee on ex-
else and fees recommending that it
be indefinitely postponed.
The effort to amend this law orr
ginated in Milwaukee, where over
two hundred saloon keepers were
forced TO close when the law went
into effect 1t was proposed to
amend the law so that these saloon
keepers would become legalized as
we'll as others throughout the state
who may have been effected by the
measure. The amendment was
bitterly opposed by the anti saloon
element and the recommendation
of the committee for postponement
was unanimous.

DEATH Or M. E. LENNON.
Pneumonia Causes the Death at Hos
pital at Ashland Of Well Known
= Attorney.

Attorney NJ. S Lennon died at
st. Joserh's hospital in Ashland
Friday, Feb. 20, at 4:O5 P. M, of
pneumonia. Mr. Lennon a few
weeks ago while riding in an auto
suffered rupture, which did not
then seem to be of a serious nature,
although it was necessary to have
an operation. He arrived home
Tuesday, Feb. 10, and visited with
his people between the morning
and afternoon trains. From here
he went to Ashland to ST. Joseph S
hospital. Before the operation was
performed pneumonia developed.
Monday of last week his condition
became critical and his mother was
informed of his condition. From
then until the moment of his pass
ing away some members of the
family were at his bedside.
His body was brought home
Friday night, and to many this
was the first they had known about
his being i'll. Funeral services
were held Tuesday morning at 9
O'Clock at St. Mary church, Rev
Father Klopp offering the Requiem
High Mass. Interment took place
i'll the local Catholic cemetery.
Michael Edward Lennon was born
in Appleton, Wis, 4S years ago.
There his childhood and youth were
spent, with the exception of a few
years when his parents made their
home in Jersey City, New Jersey
After graduating from the public
schools at Appleton he entered the
U. S. Naval Academy at Annapolis,
which institution he attended for
three years. Later he attended the
Jesuit college in Chicago and short
ly after took up the study of law
After being admitted to the bar he
located in Hurley. Here he iden-
titled himself with the interests not
only of this community but of the
entire iron range. He served the
public as postmaster, d istric c t
attorney and member of the school
board. After leaving Hurley he
practiced his profession for several
years in Superior, returning later
to this range.

Fine Potatoes, Uniform in Size.

(By T.. H BALLOU)
While it is impossible to preserve
seed potatoes in good condition in
storage which combines a too high
degree of temperature with darkness,
semidarkness or even slightly sub
dued light, it is quite possible to keep
them for several weeks, in late spring
or early summer. when they are
spread thinly on the floor Of bright
sunny room. After danger of freezing
weather is past they are even better
placed out of doors in the direct sun
shine. A series Of shelves arranged
one above another on the southern
exposure Of the dwelling or a farm
building provides an excellent place
for sun sprouting. The tubers are
spread in single layers on the shelves
and allowed to remain until wanted
for planting. Exposed to the fun
force of the suns rays the tubers, in
stead of sending out long, white, ten
der. succulent sprouts as in poorly
lighted storage, become hardened in
flesh and green in color, and very
short, stubby, firm, green sprouts are
developed by the eyes. whitening OF
the tubers is but slight as compared
with that under conditions found in
warm, dark storage, and they will
remain in the sunlight many weeks in
good condition for planting.
Tubers may be exposed to the sun
light for several weeks-from four tC
ten weeks, and they will sprout splen
didly. Such tubers when cut one
sprout to a piece and planted, send uI
strong plants in a surprisingly short
time. It is hardly profitable to sur
sprout large tubers for planting, as
not all of the eyes will develop sprouts
and considerable waste will result
However, the plan is excellent wher
smaller tubers are used and planted
without cutting. So firm and tougf
become the hard, short, sturdy sprouts
developed in the sun, that planting
may be done with certain horse
power machines without injury to th'
seed tubers IL not too many are placed

Ancient Corn Mills.

These peculiar rock formations are
hand made-the most ancient of grist
mills for grinding American corn.
They have been used by the Navajo
Indians of Arizona from time imme.
mortal up to within a comparatively
few years. There are 35 to 40 of them
in the group, the lava rock in which
they have been cut being especially
favorable for grinding purposes.
The Navajos, unlike their more war
like neighbors, the Apaches, have been
for the past 200 years a pastoral and
industrial race of Indians, cultivating
large acreages of grain and an entire
tribe was wont to repair to these NOR,
tars near Sulphur Springs, where the
squaws would spend several days max
ing meal Some of the old hangers
on at Sulphur Springs say that years
ago there were many pestles or grind
ing stones lying around the mill,
but these have all been taken away
by travellers as curiosities.

stops Heat RAYS.

An interesting chemical paint which
has the property of intercepting the
heat rays of the sun, has recently
been put on the market by German
concern. 1t may be applied to tin,
corrugated iron, slate or glass, indeed,
any material used in the roofing of
buildings, and by its peculiar quality
leaves the room beneath the roof COM
paratively cool. 1t is stated that the
temperature of workrooms may be re-
duced from Is to 20 degrees Fahren-
heit, according to the surface which
can be covered, and the added eff
cheney Of the workmen thus promoted
is direct and measurable gain. The
paint is light blue in color, so that, If
applied to glass, it does not appre-
ciably influence the light. Its COM
ponents are at present trade secret,
but the fact that many large electric
and manufacturing companies in Ger
many are regular users is cited as evil
dence that it is practical.
