This is the last day for the Whales

not trained on baseball. There is
grave doubt about the sharpness of
the batters' eyes, and no opportunity

teamwork into his infield. The pitch
ers can put on speed and twist
curve or two, but their control is
doubtful.
Taken as a whole, this training

Swollen totals are being registered

The result of the election IN Chi
cago last week was a great surprise
TO every one, especially to the dem
ocrats, who regarded that city SO
overwhelmingly democratic, that
therewes no possibility of the re-
publicans electing their ticket. The
nominee for mayor ignored local
questions and made his campaign
on national issues, the most prom
inent being a protective tariff for
the benefit of the laboring class, and
the result is indicative of what will
occur at the next presidential cleo
ton. The laboring class in the
cities have learned by sad expert
ence, that democracy never has and
never will fill a dinner pail or a
pay envelope Saturday nights, con-
sequently the thousands out of en-
ployment in that city voted the re-
publican ticket, which was elected
by rousing majority.

A lot of men who claimed to be
republicans, but during the last
presidential campaign did their ut
most to defeat their party and who
can read the signs of the coming
political cyclone. are now edeing
toward the old party, in the hope
that their desertion and disloyalty
to party will be forgotten. They
are known, and in the future should
be treated with contempt. There
is one in this state who has received
great honor atthe hands of his party
and has had great following be-
cause of his ability to bamboozle a
part of the democracy. They, as
we'll as a large majority of republi-
cans have lost all confidence in him
and should he be a candidate in the
future, he should receive the polit-
icai castigation he richly deserves.

to close UP some business of the es-

young fellow just starting out in his

Short Snap Shots.

Isn't it surprising, that when an
effort is being made to relieve the
people from the burden of taxation
. and stop official graft, the men re-
sponsible for the conditions which
have largely obtained in this. state
for the past fifteen years will rear
up and yell, Reaction and Tory"
until they are all out of breath.
The people of, Wisconsin are
awakening to realization ofwhat
reform and progressiveness" has
cost the taxpayers under the. rule
of the boss" and his henchmen;
whose only, interest in the people
was to further. their own interests.
Under a conservative estimate,
the taxpayers have been robbed by
excessive. taxation of about forty
millions of dollars which has been
criminally wasted under the So
called reform rule.
The tories" are making good
and will save. the people millions
of dollars annually. Instead of be-
ing term of reproach, it has be-
come an honor to be tory in either
party.
Clifford Pinchot, (Roosevelt's
friend) who was sent as a repres-
entative of this government to Bel
GUM, was requested by the German
authorities in the Belgian war zone
to make himself scarce. The troub-
le was, that he was talking too
much with his mouth, forgetting
that he was on a delicate mission
and should not take sides, the I'm
tied States being. neutral. The
trouble with Pinchot as we'll as all
the radical progressives is, that
they are obsessed with the idea that
they are the smartest men on the
earth and advocate all kinds of fool
propositions.

burdensome. In his speech be said
in part:
Laws must be regulated so that
the responsibility for errors and
the praise for good work can be
pointedly fixed
There are great parts of the
people of the United States" he
declared, who feel that the man
who makes money by successful
business is a robber. 1t is time
that feeling was dispelled and that
the view became vagary of the
past"
1t seems as if our people were
interested in nothing but personal
tiles, that we want a government of
men, not of laws. 1t seems some
times as if our people do not realize
that it makes any difference to them
what laws they have or how. they
are administered. 1 am glad to see
there is a change of opinion.
l have found,p said Mr.. Root,
that more than 81, 900 laws have
been passed by Congress and state
legislatures in this country in the
last five years and more than IS 900
decisions reported by courts of last
resort.
How can you possibly know
them? How can you conduct your
business and keep out of iail?"
Just think of it, in our state we
have some fifty odd commissions
which cost the taxpayers hundreds
of thousands of dollars annually
and are responsible to nobody and
are of no earthly use to the people.
The commissions are a legacy of
the reformers CD to provide lucra-
tive places for progressive workers,
relieving the state officers from both
labor and responsibilities. And
then our progressive friends have
by their words and acts created the
impression that theman who by IL
dustry and economy has accumal-
ated competency is dangerous
citizen. and should be disposessed
of his accumulations by unjust leg
al enactments.
The disposition to enact laws in
terfering with and limiting personal
freedom in the transaction of bust
ness fill our statute books and real
liberty has departed. Most every
law enacted, has been for the bene-
| fit of a class against a class and
most all inspired by selhshness,
and it is. time that the people awoke
to prevent the destruction of enter.
prise and economy in our country.

will be dumped on the American
market and hard times experienced
all over the country unless a tariff
barrier again be erected"
He is no theorist, but on the con-
trary, a practical business man who
has studied the subject from every
angle, and explains his reasons for
his prediction as follows:
It is true there will come res
toration of confidence and business
will benefit to that extent. But we
will face then an economic situation
more difficult than ever has con-
fronted US before. In my judg-
ment the war started more looms
and furnaces than it has closed
and on the whole has benefited rath-
er than retarded American business.
| am not tariff extremist, but the
present tariff is too low. Too many
articles are on the free list. The
barrier of protection will have to
be raised again on many of the art
icles now on the free list = else we
cannot help face hard times when
we face the greatly disturbed econ
omic and industrial conditions fol-
lowing the war.

Reasoning Bird.

There is something very remarkable
in the almost reasoning powers exhi-
bited by birds in eluding pursuit or in
turning attention from their nests and
young, and the duck tribe is notable
in this respect. Mr.. King, an Arctic
explorer, shot duck; fired again and,
as he thought, disabled it's mate. Leav-
ing the dead bird, he waded into the
water after the drake, which, far from
being futtered or alarmed, remained
motionless. Still, as he neared it, it
glided easily away through innumer-
able little hooks and windings. Sever
al times he reached out his hand, and
having at last managed to coop it up
in corner, was bending down to take
it when to his utter establishment, it
cried "quack," and then flew away so
strongly that he was convinced he had
never hit it at all. The birds object
clearly was to draw the gunner away
from its companion.-Exchange.

The Glorious AppIe.

Without the apple there would be
no apple pie, and without it's help
mince pie would pass away. Without
the apple there would be no cider, and

Once the apple was depended on for

The Tax Burden.

The amount the citizen pays IN
taxes to the state is only one OF the
items included in his disbursements
for the support Of the government.
Assembling the various items which
enter into the total of this expense,
Ellis B. Usher observes that the
figures of the Tax Commission tor
1914 show total of over t1fty-tWo
million dollars collected In Wiscon-
sin by state, county and municipal
governments in taxes on real estate,
incomes, inheritances and corpor-
alton earnings, and this is by no
means all.
1t has been disclosed that the last
Legislature appropriated four mil
lion dollars which the taxes did not
provide for. This sum should have
been added. Then there are the in
come from the university trust funds,
the interest on deposits, the receipts
of the BARRIERS board, the game
warden's office, the state medical
board, charitable and penal instit-
utions, local license taxes on sa-
looms, theatres and other business
es, and the United States internal
revenue and war taxes.
Jumping altogether, Mr. Usher
calculates the total amount of mon
ey collected by government from
Wisconsin people at eighty million
dollars a year, which,, reduced to
per capita basis, means over thir-
ty-four dollars for each man, wom-
an and child in the state. For a
family of five it means That one
hundred and sixty dollars a year
on the average is going to the sup
port of the government and the IN
situations it maintains. In other
words, the average citizen must
earn one hundred and sixty dollars
each year to pay over. to the gov
eminent, directly, before he has any
money for himself and his family.
What Governor Phillip is doing
to bring about the lowering of taxes
collected by the state deserves the
hearty support of every citizen Of
Wisconsin,. 1t should inspire othel
men in public life to put forth ef-
forts in behalf of the people instead
of entering into collision with tax
eaters. to maintain and increase ar
oppressive burden that bows the
backs of men and women who work
