II. Baynard. president OF the Board
of Education, said:
I'VE have just closed the most sue
cessful year the schools have ever had
from a professional point OF view, but
physical conditions of the schools
are not satisfactory, for the reason
that il is impossible TO DO any more
than has been done owing to the lack
of appropriations. The vote would in
dicate that the taxpayers Of the city
want the schools kept open, regard

OF lot of tax eaters who have
roasted in the state capitol for
years and lived high at the expense

many of the members have been
influenced by the Madison lobby

peoples money and are opposing
retrenchment and economy. To be
informed, all that is necessary is
to read the names of those who vo-
ted for the big university appro-

Short Snap Shots.

Didn't Senator LaFollette vote
for the Underwood free trade tariff
law? Didn't he know better, who
assisted in drafting the Mckinley
tariff lawP If he had any sense,
he certainly should have known
better. His Judgment was no doubt
warped by his desire to curry ia
vor with the democracy for politi-
cal reasons. While the people are
condemning the Democratic party
for the present tariff law, they
should not forget the few republi-
can progressives who voted for it;
and are equally responsible with
the democrats for existing condi-
tions.
1t is surprising how quickly the
progressive republicans are read
ing the signs of the times which
indicates the success of the repub-
lican party in the next presidential
election. Senator Pointdexler of
Washington, who has been cavort-
ing around and snorting as pro-
gressive, informs his home friends
that he will act with the Republi-
can party and makes announcement
of the fact, that he will be candi-
date for reelection. He and all
other progressives who have not
been loyal to the republican party,
should be dumped into the political
scrap heap.
Religion in politics is to be de-
plored by every one. But the ques-
ton will continually come up, who
is to blame?
President Wilson's cabinet con-
tinues to hang together. Grape
Juice does not seem to cheer them
up to any great extent.
1t may be true, as some of our
democratic friends claim, that there
is no Significance In recent election
results, but they must admit that
it is very strange chain of circum-
stances that gives the verdict to
the republicans = and then notice,
how the progressives are hustling
back into the republican party, be-
fore political lightning strikes

of the Milwaukee Journal reached

we heartily congratulate the pub
fishers on the phenomenal success
of the Journal. The writer we'll re-
members thirty-three years ago,
when Lutte Nieman, Jerry Murphy

nal upon the sea of journalism and
we had our fears for its success.
1t was little dinky paper, cratic
in many ways and had for competi-
tors, the Sentinel and Evening Wis

very sensitive to trade depressions.
Before the coming into power of a
democratic administration and the
enactment of the present tariff law,
the railroads we're prosperous, for
the people, especially the farmers,
were enjoying a marvellous pros
perity. How is it now?. The pre-
liminary report for the fiscal year
ending J une 80, 1914, issued by
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, which is friendly to the pres
ent administration, shows that the
ton-mileage or number of tons car
ried one mile, was 288,31o,8oo,2Io
as against sol, 3e8,752, Io8 in 1913
a decrease of I3,o78,86I, 1898 in
1914. The total number of per-
sons reported on lhe payrolls was
I,6o5,483 and as compared with the
corresponding returns for June 80,
1913, there was decrease of no,
756, meaning loss of SI2o, 600,
900 per anum to wage earners
which went out into the avenues of
business and benefited all classes.
Thousands of empty freight cars
are standing on side tracks because
OF the fact that manufacturing in
dustries have either been closed or
working a greatly reduced force
because of unfrierdly and destruc-
tive legislation. But the people
are becoming wise to the existing
conditions and the causes for the
same and will at the first opportu-
nifty make change and bring back
the prosperity which formerly OBJ
tanned in this country.

University Extension.

A Taxpayer" in a communlca-
ton to the Milwaukee Sentinel OF
recent date shows how unneces-
sary and how expensive the uni
versity extension" course is to the
people and taxpayers as follows:
If our university education has
a commercial or marketable value,
fitting the students for self-support,
why subsidize so many students
and graduates through the medium
of the state university extension
course" at so great annual cost to
taxpayers? For there is no ques-
ton that, if necessary, the knowl-
edge could be disseminated in ways
less extravagant, ways much more
tangible, say in published form.
If any community wants special
benefits or special information it
should be willing to pay what the
information is worth, and directly
to the ones who have the informa-
ton to sell: that is what we are
educating our students for.
After the state has provided
buildings with best equipment and
with best faculty that can be OBJ
tanned, all located where beneh-
Charles can get knowledge at foun-
tain head, congregating in numbers
that reduce per capita costs tc
minimum, that is all that should
be expected from the taxpayer.
The claim that the extension
course advertises the university,
and SO increases attendance, is not
worthy of consideration unless
quantity is more desirable than
quality. AS the annual expense oil
the extension course is now 1886,
900, the cost per capita for the
few who are so influenced is toe
much like buying attendance. Fur.
Their, why should we drum ur
trade" when expenses are already
unbearable?"
The only benefit that the writer
has been able to discover, is large
salaries and expense accounts fol
a large number of professors
whose services are of no value tc
the people in the agricultural dis
tricts. 1t is absolutely money vast
ed.

The politicians at Madison who,
under the lead of the greatest po-
litical fakir IN this state, if not in
the entire nation, are doing all in
their power to prevent Governor
Philip from securing such legisla-
ton as shall reduce taxes and give
the state an economical admins
tration. The Legislature should
and no doubt will, aid the execu-
tive in carrying out the promises
of a reduction of taxes and a better
state government.

the suit brought by the Riggs Nat
ional Bank against the government.
1t wants to know why the Depart
ment of Justice is inadequate to
take care of the government side
of the case. Without any thought
of prejudging the case, taxpayers
are likely to regard these as fair
questions.
Probably, to recompense Bran
deis for his disinterested work for
the party in power at the expense
of the taxpayers. And then, it is
barely possible, that there is no
one IN the Department Of Justice
capable of handling the case.

President VanHise of the state
university wants an appropriation
from the legislature of 81, 900, 900
for dormatories for men who NAV
attend that institution. There are
plenty of buildings in Madison,
specially arranged for the housing
of students who could pay for their
their rooms and not be housed at
the expense Of the taxpayers. 1t
might be good idea for the re-
gents to dump VanHise and Sc
cure the services of a man with
some idea of economy.
