his own story OF his naval experience,

the priceless relics Of the family:

Silence is commonly the slow poison
used by those who mean to murder
love There is nothing violent about
It. No shock is given. Hope is not
abruptly strangIed. but merely dreams
Of evil and fights with gradually ST..
ding shadows. When the last convul-
sions come they are not terrific. The
frame has been weakened for dissolu-
ton. Love dies like natural decay 1t
seems the kindest way of doing a
cruel thing.-George Meredith.

THE CRY OF THE MASSES.


William Jennings Bryan was right
when he said, during the Chicago CON
vention of 1912: Democracy is mill
tant the world around, and never more
so, as in our own beloved country"
We take this to have a different mean
ing than is generally embraced in the
platform of political party. It's
meaning is deeper, more far reaching
more nearly in accord with absolute
justice and the fulfilment of the Popu-
lists plea; equal rights to all and
special privileges to none' And as
time advances the leading political
organizations of the day Will embrace
the peoples platform or be superced-
ed by one that will. The results of
the war in Europe will leave more to
be done than to reshape territorial
boundaries, and to care for fatherless
children. There will be the reshaping
of Governments on the basis of the
rights of the individual, rather than
the demands of rulers. There NAV be
extravaganza, but could it be worse
than exists at the present time?
Some seem afraid to trust matters
of grave Importance to the unschooled
masses. Whether we want to or not
Man will win" Nations are refus-
ing to be dominated by demagogues.
The task before the leaders of the flu
ture is to so train the masses in the
eternal principles of right and justice
that they will choose wisely. The
people are after the best They NAV
not know it all, but God is on their
side and He wills that they win.

DOINGS AT MADISON.
Items of Interest Concerning Wisconsin
by Ellis B. Usher, of
Milwaukee.

The news from Madison seems to
have few grains of encouragement
now and then, and here and there the
total output of laws bids fair to shrink
some, and there is ali occasional NOR
tuary joy like the death of the second
choice law, which was long La Follett s
pleasure and that he chung to even
up to last election day. McGOvern al
so thought it an important measure
and pushed it to success. In his first
message he foresaw the dangers of "a
number of candidates in primary
campaign" and how "a compact,
cohesive, and well drilled minority
might win, and he earnestly recon-
mended the enactment of such a law. "
This was on January II, 1911. Now
the law that was to give us 'majority"
government, but did not, goes to the
scrap heap without mourner.
Next Monday will turn the fifth
month of this legislative session aud
no one seems 20 know just which way
the law giyers are headed. The pleas
ures seem to be offset with pains. DIR.
Mccarthy promises to prove impreg-
nable, and the president of the Uni
yersity is watching the weather cock
with great interest. So far no one is
justified in assuming that nothing of
real Importance in the way of reduc-
ing taxation is likely to be accom-
plished. But no one who cares more
for that than for the rise or fall of
Republican, Progressive, or mixed
factions, will fail to note that four
months have passed, and that in less
than sixty days, the end of the fiscal
year will arrive. 1t is iinely to indi-
cate that the excessive appropriations
of the former Legislature, including
those arbitrarily suspended for elect
ion purposes, and the automatically
growing taxes and expenses make a
worse showing than they did last June.
Cheese pairing schemes for a few
thousands or few hundreds of thou
sands of dollars will avail little to
Wisconsin from 20 million dollar
expense account. 1t is much more
important to tax payers to shut OFF
expenses than to have the handful of
conservative Republicans, though it
is a cock-sure certainty that the one
way for them to make record is to
shut off the expenses at the bung, aud
not at the spigot. The people are
patient, but their eyes are open and
so are their ears, and they are in dead
earnest for economy.

The question of Wisconsin local
debt is, as | tried to suggest last week,
one of rapidly growing Importance
This debt falls much more heavily up
on cities than elsewhere, but $40, 900,
O00 of Indebtedness means $l7.S7
person for the entire state, or for each
family of five, $50. 35. But let us get
closer to the people who actually bear
this burden, and whose property IS
mortgaged, under city and village
bonds, as security for 1t. The urban
population of Wisconsin is today
about LOO. 900 people. This is about
a percent of the states population,
so upon AZ percent of the population
falls rs percent of this debt. That
means that the average city family of
five persons is mortgage for over SlS6.
It is a serious matter when viewed
from an angle. Great public works,
like great touring ears, are delightful,
but they have to be paid for. In 1890,
when our population was 1867, 900,
this debt was about Sl2, 100000. In
1902. with about =, 900, 900 population,
it had grown to s24, $50. 600. In 1913,
with population approximately 2,
800 600 it was nearly SIS, 0OO, 900. This
was three and a quarter times the
debt of 1890, and as cities have grown
and put on frills as well as population,
the bulk of it has piled upon them.
In 1890 the urban population OF the
state was less than 0ne-third of the
total population. 1t has Increased
almost one-half in the intervening
twenty five years. Yet, rapid as that
growth of city population has been, 1t
has been outrun nearly five times by
the growth of municipal indebtedness.
The residents of cities and villages
complain that the cost of living is
higher than it used to be, but the cost
of living has grown at snail's pace in
comparison with the cost of all kinds
of government, and, as this great debt
indicates, the growth of taxes is only
one feature of the expense that noun
ting assessments make possible.
