company has since failed to carry out

REVIEWS THE
WORK Of
SOLONS

When he spoke in the Baraboo High
school building on Monday night be-
fore the Monday Night club and Choral
Union, Congressman John j. Esch of
La Crosse said that during the last
congress, 81, $50 bills and resolutions
were introduced and of these only GLIB
saw the light of day The others died in
the committee room, on the clerk 8
desk or at some stage which must be
travelled before a measure can become
law. Mr.. Esch said that it is we'll that
all bills do not become laws and that
there was much truth in the statement
that nation is governed best which
governs least. 1t was Emo doubt wise
that only about one out Of every fifty
became enacted.
Mr. Esch then reviewed the most I'M
portant bills and among them may be
mentioned the following:
The Underwood tariff bill, which was
designed to be measure for revenue
only and to reduce the charge on i'm
ports from 40 to 50 per cent. The result
was that thatatrade from abroad was
stimulated and there was not enough
revenue derived to run the government.
The federal reserve act, designed to
prevent panics and creating district
reserves in various parts of the country
The federal trade commission bill to
investigate unfair methods in competi-
ton and bring offenders to trial.
The Clayton antitrust bill to prevent
dealers from having two prices on the
same goods and to do away with ex-
elusive contracts.
Repeal of the tolls of coastwise YES
sells. This was done to avoid violating
a treaty made long ago.
The popular election of United States
senators, which act had been approved
by many of the states.
The seaman's bill to exempt seamen
from peonage. Heretofore sailor could
be arrested in port if he deserted his
ship, could not collect his wages until he
returned to the starting port and other
elements just as obnoxious. The sea-
man now have greater rights than ever
before. Senator La Toilette fostere0
the bill.
Opium or Harris bill which makes
most stringent the sale of habit forming
drugs. The law went into effect the
first of this month.
Cooperative agricultural work to take
the ex pert servic to the homes and on
the farms.
The Alaska railroad bill to aid in the
construction of line in the territory
to develop the gold regions.
He then spoke Of some of the meas
ures enacted as result of the war,
the leading ones being to increase the
revenue and to permit boats to sail un-
der the American flag after they hao
so registered
The address was non-partisan anC
many, both Democrats and Replbll-
cans. expressed themselves highly
pleased to have the privilege of listen
ing to clear and unbiased discussion
of recent national legislation.
Superintendent A. c. Kingsford ir-
PRODUCED Mayor G. 7. Thuerer who in
turn introduced the speaker.

ton of Professor Milford Wits OF

OPEN LETTER

@e e@ ~ &~ N~ %~ ~
North Freedom, Wis, March 20, 1915
To the People Of Sank county.
Friends:
So many false and misleading state
ment are being circulated regarding
your county superintendent of schools
and the management of the office,
that am compelled injustice to you and
myself, to make public statement for
the benefit of those who are misin-
formed.
These are some of the charges that
are being freely circulated by the OPP
position:
/. The schools are not being visited,
as too much time is spent at farmers
clubs.
2. The county board has been asked
to furnish an automobile and driver at
county expense.
3. The deputy county superinten-
dents are all said to be Catholics, and
the salary is said to be $150O.OO an
nually.
A. At least one Parochjal school in
the county is said to receive state pub
lie school money.
Now what are the facts?
l. From Fifty to One Hundred more
visits are made to the schools each
year than have been made by any for
mer county superintendent of this
county as shown by the records on
file.
| consider it an important and neces
sary part of my duty to help in all edu-
cational movements in the county and
whenever | have spoken at Farmers
clubs, it has been upon the invitation of
those in charge.
have in no way neglected the
schools because of this work. The
only neglect has been to my home and
family. | have never received one dol
lar of extra pay for this service 1t has
been a pleasure to cooperate with the
people of the county in this movement
that has placed our homes, c2mmuni-
ties and schools in the front rank in
Wisconsin,
2. The second charge is without
foundation as can be proven by refer
ring to any member of the county
board of supervisors, or board of edu-
cation. No such request has ever been
made
3 The office of deputy superinten-
dent was created by the county board
to take charge of the extra duties that
recent legislatures have placed ION the
county superintendent. Since | came
superintendent, there have been five
deputies, three Professionals and two
Catholics. II no case has the religion
of the deputy affected the character OF
the service performed for the county
The salary is $50 month for nine (9)
months.
4. Any thinking person must know
that it is impossible for a private or
parochial school to receive state public
school money and none IS so received.
The apportionment is made by State
Superintendent Cary and the books of
the county treasurer show the am Junts
paid to each school.
have not favored persons of one
religion over those of any other and in
no way has the question of person s
religion been connected with the public
schools or my work in the county. The
public schools are for all the people.
You are invited to consider these
criticisms and others of a similar ma
tire in the spirit of honesty and fair
play, then register your decision at the
polls on April 6.
