GOOD SHOWING MADE AT Sta
BOYS CALF BEEF SRou

Madison More than forty beef
animals under fifteen months old were
lined up for competition in the first
Wisconsin Boys Calf Beef Show, held
here under the auspices of the Wiscon-
sin Live Stock Breeders Association
and the College of Agriculture. The
affair was the round up Of seven pre-
liminary county fair contests, but in
cluded several animals not previously
exhibited.
First position was easily won by a
Shorthorn steer raised by Alvin Morley.
Baraboo, who also secured fourth place
on his other entry of Shorthorn heif-
er. The winning steer, IA months old,
was a splendid example of early fitted
beef, and tipped the beam at 1850
pounds. This animal, which secured
second place at the Sauk county fair
two months ago, "came back" in won
derful style, and defeated the original
Sank county winner, which was like
wise entered in the state contest.
A Shorthorn heifer, entered by Rob-
ert Gray of Milton, was awarded sec
ond position. The animal was year
ling, weight 900 pounds, and had pre-
viously won first prize at the GAINESVILLE
fair and second place at the State fair
this year.
The winner of first money at the
State fair this year was forced into
third place in this show. This animal,
a Hereford yearling heifer, weighing
, about 925 pounds, was entered by Lee
Jewell, an eight year old feeder from
Mineral Point. That it did not give
the other winners closer race for first
honors may be partly due to the fact
that it had been weaned for more than
three months, while both of the favor
ties were accompanied to the show by
"wet nurses"
A total of fifteen cash prizes were
awarded, from $50 on the first animal
to four dollars on the fifteenth. Boys
who did not get place on the premium
list were given all transportation ex-
penses Specials were awarded by
leading packers and associations.
Competition was hard one, even for
such an experienced beef man as James
G. Imboden, Decatur, Illinois, who did
the official work in the ring. In
terested crowds of farmers, breeders,
feeders, and agricultural students were
in attendance during the Judging, and
obtained much valuable information on
the importance of heredity and good
feeding" qualities in the making of
high grade grade beef.
Owners of other animals which
secured places up to to the fifteenth are
given in the order named
Fourth, Alvin Morley, Baraboo; fifth,

Special Privilege, Again.

Milwaukee Journal: Many news
papers have tried to revive the issue Of
sectionalism in interpreting the result
of the election. They do this in a com
planning way only, and not with the
idea Of learning anything from the
sectional struggle of sixty years ago.
1t is interesting to restate the issue
then, the better to compare it with the
issue now.
The south was burdened with the
special interest of slavery. Slavery
was the very frank device by which
some people appropriated the fruits of
other peoples effort The profits were
50 big that to preserve the device
disloyal and seditions movement was
set on foot, which found expression in
secession.
During the past fifty years, great
special interests have grown up, in
money, trade, and manufacture. which
have been fortified behind the policy Of
protection" As protection has been
administered, it, too has become a.
device by whioA some men reaped the
fruits of other meu'S effort though.
more adroitly and less frankly than
under the direct method of enslave-
meut. The profits haye been ex~
cee9ingly large.
In some parts Of this country, during
the campaign just closed, the b .nefciar-
les Of this policy Of protection condoned,
and even encouraged and abetted a well
defined and openly disloyal movement
which found expression. not in seces
sion, but in moral sedition in an effort
to humble the United States, in the in
terest of foreign power. Indeed,
more than on" seditiOus movement, in
the interest of more than one foreign
power, was thus encourage by those
who wanted to bring back an era Of
exorbitant protection. These move
ments were encouraged. of course, to
get votes.
To this point, history has rep 'atel
itself. Two great special interests have
been on trial-in each case they have
seemed to believe that the government
is good and ought to be maintained
only when it is their servant. Other
wise, it is bad, and ought TO be over
thrown, even if it is necessary to incite
sedtion.
Will history repeat itself the rest Of
the way? The first seditiOn resulted in
no slavery at all Will the pro-
tectionists, stupidity seeking to gather
votes by the encouragement Of disloyal
persist t. the point where
popular resentment will condemn their
policy root and branch to destruction?

HEALTH.

The thing we should prize above
all we possess, and guard with the
greatest of care, more valuable far
than ali riches on earth, rubies, dia-
monds and gold can't compare. And
what in most cases we seem to neg
lect, and treat very lightly, indeed;
not knowing the favors extended TO
us, giving matters important no heed.
We journey along, never stopping to
think, using judgment about like an
OK, spending money and time and
accomplishing naught, making haste
for the rough wooden box. We do
not appreciate that which we have, re-.
gardless Of what it is worth; it's al.
ways that something that's just out OF
reach is the thing for which we'd
give the earth. Complaining, dissatyi
isfied, never content, the plan Of ouf
lives we upset-we're never in har:i
mony, never in peace. striving always
for what we can't get. And thus will
we sacrifice that which to us is far
moro important than wealth-for ALI
the earth's rubies. and diamonds, and
gold are nothing COM Y. ~ q. T..

The supreme court has again sus-
tanned the right of Candidate Knott
to have recount of the ballots cast
in the democratic primary. Under
this decision, the recount win proceed,
at such precincts as Mr.. Knott and his
supporters may elect. This seems, on
it's fact, monstrously unfair-permit-
ting the contestant to select the pre-
cincts to be observation-disclosures
Tribune.
1t seems to the Star that it would
be monstrously unfair for the su-
preme court to deny candidate re-
count in any precinct where he
thought he had not received fair
count because he did not apply for a
recount in all the precincts in Flor
ida. If we went to Tampa and stole
one of the Tribune's linotype ma
chimes and brought it to Ocala, and
the Tribune applied to the court for
a search warrant for the Star Office,
what would the Tribune say if the
court refused the warrant because the
Tribune did not ask for warrant for
the Banner Office also? Mr.. Knott did
rot apply for recount for every pre-
cinct in the state, so il the court had
directed him to have every precinct
recounted it would have been about
as sensible as the Tribune is.

PITY THE POOR STEEL TRUST
How Badly Infant Industry" Is
In Need of Protection.

The National Bank Of the Republic
OF this city has published the follow
ing analysis of the steel business in
general and that of the steel trust
in particular:
The untitled orders of this one pro-
Queer on February 20 reached the
largest total ever reported.
Incoming business was so per cent in
excess of shipments, although the or
ders already on the books would be
sufficient to maintain the prese.lt u age
output for more than six months with
out the acquisition of a single addi-
tional order. The existing demand for
steel products is estimated to be just
double the productive capacity. The
rising prices are met without hesi-
fancy. Pig iron production is
now at a yearly rate of nearly 100000
600 tons. and the greater part of this
output is contracted for six months in
advance"
Consider further that the demand
for steel products will not decline at
the close of the war, owing to the
enormous reconstruction necessary.
Under such circumstances, isn't 1t pos
itively pitiful that the poor steel trust
must face the future without any
mortgage on the White House and
without being able to bar all foreign
metal goods from the United States

DICTATED BY GREED
Shameful Policies Formulated by
Manufacturers.
Summed Up, IL Would Appear That the
Cotton Manufacturers Association
Stands for Extortion, Cruelty,
Tyranny, and Monopoly.

The American Cotton Manufaetur
ers' association, in session at Atlanta,
enthusiastically adopted resolutions
demanding high protective tariff, the
defeat of the child-labor bill in con-
gress, the denial of Philippine indie
pendence and the legalization of COM
binations to control foreign trade.
Why nothing was said in favor of bur-
giary and abduction is not explained.
. We do not believe that our business
men are as vicious as the policies of
the lackeys supported by their organ
ization often make them appear In
this declaration an important element
OF producers subscribed to extortion,
cruelty, tyranny and monopoly. Prac-
tically all the social and political adj
yancement made by humanity since
the days of John Hampton was belied
and repudiated in these utterances.
Only one excuse was made for such
a platform of abomination, and that
was fear. There is fear that the pres
emit prosperity will not last; that Eu-
ropean competition after the war viii
be deadly; that humanity toward
childhood will shorten the. supply of
cheap labor, and that freedom in the
Philippines may restrict a market.
Fear is one of the basest of passions,
because it is made cover for vio-
lence and injustice.
Many people are inclined to marvel
at the desperation to which war has
brought the highly-ciyilized nations of
Europe. Here under conditions of pro-
found peace we have spirit no less
rapacious. War is greed with arms
In its hands, but it is open and un-
ashamed. The greed of the cotton
manufacturers is war by indirection,
but the weapons that it uses are those
which progress always disclaims and
withstands.

WINNERS ADDRESS
(ocala Banner)

Mr.. Charles Winner made a speech
to handful of people from the band
stand last night against the handful
Of Catholics in this state.
He says that hey are a menace,
and the state and the nation are
threatened with invasion.
Let's see.
st. Augustine is the oldest city In
the United States. 1t was settled by
Catholics. Their presence has not
been hurtful to the state.
It is the concensus of opinion that
they have made fine citizens-gentle
women and courtly men-and the
state would be better off if we had
more of them.
The Irish generally are Catholics
and almost to man, when they land
on our shores, vote the democratic
ticket.
We would like to have an invasion
of them.
In fact, if the French, English and
German Catholics are as good as the
ones we have happened to become ac-
quainted with, we would not object to
being invaded by them.
The world is now witnessing the
greatest war of history between
Christian nations that is filling Eu-
rope with mourning and lamenta-
tions.
For PHYS sake, let's forbear having
a war among the Christian denomina.
tions in our own land.
All our life we have preached
against intolerance along all lines.
In the language of Horace Greeley
we have tried to bridge the chasm be-
tween the north and the south.
We have tried to cement the Union
in bonds of patriotism.
We have fought against religious
.bigotry and prejudice and have tried
tc show show good and how pleasant
it is for brethren to dwell together ir
unity"
We hope that our preaching and
prayers have had some effect, ano
we have faith to believe, "like see6
sown in good ground" they have borne
fruit, as only few were out to hear
Mr.. Winner, and most of those who
heard him did so out of mere idle
curiosity.

SOME CONSOLATION FOR
COMRADE SCHNEIDER

Cheer up "Comrade' Schneider.
You are not the first one to blame hui
man foolishness and ignorance; old
Homer sang 1000. years before you
were born:
There they are blaming US, the gods,
While their own foolishness is giving
them trouble, beyond fate.
And all these 1000 years poor Hen.
ry Dubb has been learning by hard
and painful experience. There are
millions of Dubbs today in the
trenches, thinking hard when they are
not fighting, and millions of Dubbses,
children of the white father, are tax
ing postgraduate courses in Ger
many in agriculture and-other
things. All the time they are learn
ing and thinking; SO much, that their
divinely appointed rulers are lying
awake at night trying to figure out
what to do with the thinkers when
they come home.
You have seen picture of Robins
famous sculpture, "The Thinker"
Why did the artist make him so
powerful, so muscular and rather
fearsome? He is burying his frown-
ing brow in his hands. Some day he
will take down his fists and use them
when he is through with thinking.
Yes, what is Henry Dubb going to
do when he comes home and finds
Mrs. Dubb holding his job-but not
for him.
They have organized production in
the warning countries more than they
would have don in 200 years of
peace, and they are organizing distri-
button now. Germany has her potato

thing is coming your socialistic way
and you ought to be happy.
And Finland has socialistic par
lament.
Look at conditions at home. OF
course we all know that organization
is still crime in this country. But
trust busting is fast becoming a lost
art; they won't stay busted.

solid bunch of socialists in Congress
enough to form really radical party

You know that in Germany they put
