STATE TAX LEVY.

The following statement concerning
the state tax levy, showing the reduc-
ton in taxes to be raised in Iowa
county for strictly state purposes, has
been sent to Tne Democrat from the
Governors office:
State taxes paid by Iowa county for 1914 to
meet the tax levy amour ted to 81, 5000.
For 1915 the amount paid will be SCI, 49,. II. a
reduction of Sl0,t309S.
The Democrat holds no brief for
Former Gov. McGovern against Present
Gov. Philip. They are both high tariff
takers; and high tariff takers are gen
orally high takers all along the line In
1912 the McGovern administration cut
down the tax levy; but heaped it up in
1914 and 1915. The Phillip admins
tration will have one more tax levy to
make,-that of 1916
Besides, statisticians say that state
expenditures have not been reduced;
but that under Democratic prosperity
license fees aceived from corporations
have been very great; and that this has
made possible reduction in the amount
of taxes levied, for strictly state pur-
poses, upon other forms Of property.

Tariff Beneficiaries Active.

Baraboo Democrat: It one would
know that another political campaign is
about to be sprung, he has but to listen
to the voice of the tariff charmer that
emanates from 339 Broadway, New
York. 1.-The American Protective Tar
if League" is the name of this philan-
thropic institution, and besides being in
the charity business for the benefit of
the trusts, it is out to dispense wisdom
to the benighted newspaper editors. ;.
Our opinion is that the American peo-
pie love fairness more than they love
the one sided, trust made tariff dope
of "The American Protective Tariff
League.

THE ELECTION RESULT IN
MASSACHUSETTS.

Concluding a thoughtful article head
ed, Massachusetts Republican Again, =
The Springfield Republican says:
Mr.. McCall's plurality is evidently not large
enough by good deal to warrant the conclu-
sion that his success is rebuke TO President
Wilson. In days when republicans and demo
Gratis in Massachusetts, held the field virtually
alone, so small a republican plurality WILD
have been regarded as moral defeat IN its
bearing upon national politics The indications
are that substantial. if comparatively small,
portion of the former progressive strength
went to Gov Walsh rather than Mr.. Mccall.
The democrats have gained in aggregate
strength on account of the elimination OF the
progressives.
Judging the country as whole by this state,
the conclusion is warranted that in next year S
presidential election President Wilson will be
very difficult man to defeat for he. too, will
draw share of the former strength OF the
national progressive party.

Just The Right Present.

Don't take chances in the matter of
Christmas presents. You don't want
yours, like so many others, to be re-
ceived with indiffenco or worse, and
ten days after Christmas to be cast
aside and forgotten.
You take no such chance in giving
The Youths Companion for year.
Did you ever know Of home in
which it came amiss, or of one in
which it was not conspicuous on the
library table or in some ones hands all
through the year?
1t is worth while to make a gift Of
that sort, and it is worth while to re :
ceive it, too, for The Companion
illustrates the bests traits in American
life in its stories and sketches, upholds
the best standards in its articles and
other contributions, and combines the
practical and informing with the enter
tanning and blood stirring.
If you do not know The Companion
as it is to day, let us send you one or
two current issues free, that you may
thoroughly test the papers quality.
We will send also the Forecast for 1916
Every new subscriber who sends So 90
for the fifty two weekly issues of 1916
will receive free all the issues for the
rest of 1915 and The Companion Home

M. CRAWFORD, EDITOR
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER II. 1915.

There has all along been more Or less
opposition to academic freedom in Wis
consin. Years ago, when Prof. John B.
Parkinson, in the states big public
school, led his pupils in political econ
omv to understand that the tariff was a
tax, it used to make the high tariff tax
ers' blood boil. But the real outbreak
against education that educates came
when men, versed in law and govern
ment ventured into the great preserves
of special privileges, the waterpowers,
and pointed out that the state had some
rights therein.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1915-11-11
HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF.

History is repeating itself in Wiscon
sin politics. Just bark back to the
campaign of 1890, when Gov. Hoard
was standing for reelection, on the con.
tention that the state ought to compel all
school children to receive instruction in
the English language. This was before
the treasury cases, and there was easy
money in the campaign fund Of the
pominant party; and men were sent
out through the state, to make the re-
suit as "spontaneous" as possible for
the administration. One of these visit
ing statesmen came to Mineral Point !;
and, being a newspaper man from q
neighboring county, he made the Dem /
ocrat office call Before he took his
departure, he was challenged good
naturally with the inquiry, "Well,
what is the outlook, anyway? His reply
was, ooh we are going to win. Of
course we are going to loose great
many Germans, on the Ben nett law
but on the same issue we are going to
get the Irish, solid" At case Of type
nearby stood young man who was go
ing to cast his first vote that fall. On
his mothers side he came Of good peo-
pie from the Emerald isle; while his
father was of good German stock. And
the thought occurred to us that "Our
friends, the enemy" were doomed to
disappointment if they based their
hopes upon arraying all the Irish voters
against the German voters. And they
were disappointed. They were badly
beaten at the polls. Their meddling
with the parochial schools was resented
by men of all nationalitieS, native as
well as foreign born.
Of late years, certain men, while
protesting loyalty and affection for the
common schools, have assailed the
states higher schools. But they, too,
have evidently missed their mark. In
stead of dividing the school sentiment
of the state, they have solidified it.
The men of Wisconsin are now stand
ing together for all the schools, as they
stood for them a quarter of a century
ago. They stand for the general diffu
sion of knowledge. They are looking
to their schools as the open door of OPP
portunity for the young men and women
of the state. They are not afraid of
education.

DIR. VI KYUIN WELLINGTON KOO.


graduates included him as a member.
He also took an active part in track
athletics.
DR.. KOo was only recently named
Chinese minister to Mexico, Peru and
Cuba and passed through Washington
on his way to London prior to taking
up his official position. He was pre-
sented to Secretary Of State Lansing
at that time and discussed the MeXi-
can situation with him.
AS an undersecretary at the Chinese
foreign office DR.. KOo was a member
of the commission which conducted
negotiations with the Japanese minis
ter in Picking last spring. t is said
that he is a close friend of resident
Yuan Shih Kai and is in sympathy
with the latters leaning toward a
mOnarchical form of government for
China.
The impression was gained here that
Minister Koo's appointment came as
surprise to the present minister. 1t
is said that Picking was dissatisfied
with his reports Of the attitude of the
American government and public Opin-
ion in the United States during the
Chino-.Japanese negotiations. The le-
CATION repeatedly applied to the state
department for aid and counsel at that
time. but the United States took no
action toward restraining Japan in her
demands upon China.
In 1909 DR.. KOo was made master
of arts and for three years thereafter
studied under DR.. John Bassett Moore.
The degree Of Ph. D. was conferred
upon him, and he acquired a wide rep
utation for his knowledge Of interna-
tional law.
While a student in New York city
Dr. Koo was closely associated with
work in Chinese American circles. He
was editor of the Chinese Students
Monthly and as president of the Chi
nese Students alliance did much to
advance tie interests of Chinese stu
dents in America.
DR.. Koo left America in April, 1912,
to take up his duties as diplomatic
secretary to President Yuan Shih Kai
The Chinese society gave him lunch
con on the eve of his departure.
While on the Pacific slope. intrusted
with a government mission. he re-
ceived word of his appointment as
minister to Mexico.
At the recent Bankers club luncheon
in New York DR.. Koo said. 1.-The Chi
nese people have liking for Ameri-
cans which is as intense as it is justi-
fed, and when / say this | dc not
speak on behalf of only portion OF
the people.
