State Labor Laws Discussed.

so long as | am governor it is my

tion of laws that affect the life of in

dom that the state should interfere so
far with industry that the manufac-
tuners of the state would have to
stop"
This was the declaration of Gov. E.
L. Philip speaking before the Wiscon-
sin Pea Packers association at the
annual banquet in Milwaukee.
He referred to the law limiting the
hours of labor for woman workers in
Wisconsin and the objection of the
pea Gamers to the limitations OF that
law He declared the statute is a
good one. but said calm judgment and
discretion should be used in the en-
forcement of any law that tended to
strangle industry. AID thereby prove
an injury to the workingmen of the
state.
1T is proper that all laws should
be obeyed" said Governor Philip.
But l don't propose that the canning
industry of the state shall be throttled

it be to labor II the canneries should
be closed. Laws should be fair under

Early Marrlaaes Role In state.

Gariy Marriages Rule In State.
Statistics for Wisconsin for several
years show that the proportion OF
bachelors among grooms and or
spinsters among brides is increasing
somewhat, and that the proportions of
widowed and divorced. especially the
latter, who make another entry into
matrimony, are decreasing notably.
The great bulk of marriages in this
state occur between single men and
single women. Persons of former
matrimonial experience who have mar
ried again have declined in number
perceptibly in the last three years,
particularly among those for whom
the previous marriage was ended by
divorce rather than by death.
The statistics for 1914 have just
been completed by the bureau of vital
statistics. The following figures fur

Special efforts will be made to Sc
cure better transportation facilities
between Milwaukee and other points
in the state, as well as between Mil
waukee and West Allis from the Mil
waukee Electric Railway and Light
company.
These were some of the things de-
cided at the conference of the state
fair advisory board and Commissioner
c. p Norgord
Governor Philip told the board he
expects all members to do their ut
most to make the next state fair a
success, and he assured them that
their suggestions would be carried out
in a systematic and businesslike man
ner. The people of Milwaukee, the
governor said, would literally support
the fair if a creditable show was given.
He believed that the transportation to
the fair grounds should be improved
and promised personally to request
the railroads to do everything possible
TO that end.
1t was decided to open all depart
ments of the next fair to world compe-
tition. Owing to the foot-and-mouth
disease the entries for the last fair
were restricted to Wisconsin.
Architect A. c. Glass of Milwaukee
showed plans for the proposed addi-
tion to the grandstand, consisting of
two sections. The board and the gov
ernor approved the plans. The build
ings will be erected IS soon as the
Fleming tract of land. to be added to
the fair grounds, has been conveyed
to the state.
Representative of the Chicago &
Northwestern Railway company ap-
peared before the board and said their
company would run special passenger
trains between it's station in Milwau-
kee and the fair grounds during the
week of the fair. Governor Philip was
presented to the board by Commits
sioner Norgord. The governor said:
Il want you to feel that you have not
been appointed to the advisory board
merely as ornaments / don't believe
in ornamental officers Both myself
and MIR Norgord will be pleased to
have you take an active part in the

There has been considerable confu-
sion as to just who was manager of
the state fair. In the past there have
been great many managers, and
don't like that system In fact, it is
no system at all l think you should
