Circuit Judge E B. Belden Of Ra-
cine, non-partisan candidate for Jus
tice Of the Supreme Court Of Wis
consin, was for many years the
youngest county Judge in the state.
He attained that honor in1889, when
he was but % years old. Twelve
years of service in that court won
him an enviable reputation as cap
able, fair and dignifed presiding
Judge and his election to the bench
of the First Judicial Circuit followed
as matter Of course in 1901. He
has been the choice of the voters at
each succeeding election, without
opposition.
During his fourteen years as Cir
cult Judge, he has established a
unique record. Considering the
length Of his service and the num-
Der Of cases tried before him, Judge
Belden has had fewer cases appealed
and proportionately fewer reversals
by the Supreme Court, than any cir
cult Judge in the state.
Not only has Judge Belden receiv-
ed unanimous endorsement of his
candidacy in the First Judicial Cir
cult, but lawyers and other citizens
in practically every city and town
ship in the state have signed his
nomination papers and written him,
pledging their support. Over Is, 900
persons signed his nomination pa
pers.
Judge Belden has held court in
every circuit of the state, and not
only has he proven a popular judge,
but he has gained as wide an &C
quaintanceship as is possessed by
any man in the state.

graft which the House drove from

The old familiar Alabama Power
Company's supporters were IN at
tendance during three votes held in
committee and House, the last,
record vote in the house. NotWith-
standing the joker was reported
unanimously by the committee, the
section was stricken out of the bill
by a vote Of 224 to 179 Every re-
publican member with five excep-
tions voted to strike out and about
forty northern democratic member,
including Burke Of Wisconsin, help

1t would have been worse than vast

was to be used to finance a great

posed Capitalization of 500, 900, 900,

Precipitation.
A letter at hand asks for the aver
age saving to tax payers by the de-
feat of the river and harbor bills in
the last session. Such matters are
necessarily indefnate but estimating
an average of one tax payer out OF
five, in the total population, saw
ing Of $4,000, 600 last session and
S24, 900, 900 last week, by tae defeat
of the Alabama Power Company's
Joker, makes a substantial saving in
these three bills, and to that extent
reduces the rate on war taxes fixed
by Congress, in making good our
treasury deficiency.
The new river and harbor bill for
500, 900, 900 is expected to come be
fore the House next week. Although
the bill for 1916 is not SO large as
some Of its predecessors, it is filled
with wasteful, vicious projects that
aggregate one-half of the bill, in the
writer's judgment For the first
time in a score of years a minority
report has been filed on q river and
harbor bill, in fact that was the
avowed purpose Of those who per
mitted the writer's committee as
Segment to be made. A significant
fact, that shows the growth Of pub
lie sentiment arises from three mi,
nority reports against the bill and
while such achievements ought to
bear fruit, it is dangerous to make
predictions as to legislation.
