COMPULSORY EDUCATION.

The local option compulsory cdu-
cation law written into the state sta
tutcs during the 1915 term OF the leg
iSlature marked distinct advance in
the fight for a statewide compulsory
education law that has been agitated
for considerable time. Prof. John G..
ClinkScalcS is now considered and has
been considered, and rightly SO, the
chief exponent Of statewide law on
the subject. Others, however, have
given the general question of compul-
sorry education serious consideration
for years and have Joined in the agita
tion though they were not. as profess
sional educators, SO directly interested
as to give the subject a foremost place
among their thoughts and activities.
One such man is r. A. Cooper, Of IIau-
rens, now q candidate for governor.
This writer remembers very distinct
ly attending joint picnic at Davis
Springs four years ago, at the clos
ing of the Oak Grove and Bailey
schools, when r. a. Cooper addressed
the assembled patrons and made an
earnest plea in favor Of compulsory
attendance upon the schools.
Mr.. CooDcrs ideas about compulsory
education were and are more practical,
however, than those who favor the

warrant it. However, Mr. Cooper has
not advocated local option compulsory
education, but statewide law when
the facilities are adequate to take care
Of all those who are to be accommo
dated. We suppose that the first step
to be taken in furtherance of this idea
would be to have an educational census
taken, and action taken in accord with
the findings of that census.
1t is not far stretch Of the imag-
ination to consider r.. A. Cooper as
largely instrumental in the passage of
the present compulsory law. E. p.
McCrayy, who introduced the first Sc
riously considered compulsory bill in
the legislature, is a Laurens county
product and for many years has been
a warm friend Of II. \. Cooper. 1t is
quite possible that he imbibed some
of his educational views from Cooper.
II. S. Blackwell, a member Of the leg
islaturc from this county at the time,
House of Representatives, at much
peril to his political fortunes, favoring
compulsory education. 1t IS probable
that this young legislator was
strengthened in his convictions by the
example and influence OF II. y. Cooper,
the older statesman.
There are few men indeed, outside
OF those who make teaching a profcs-
sion, who have given educational prob
lens more thought than II. a. Cooper
and there arc fewer Still who, depend
cnt upon public favor for continuance
in Office, have been courageous enough
to advocate compulsory education
when it was not popular subject.
We believe that in II. a. Cooper, the
people Of this state would find a
staunch, sane and sympathetic friend
Of education, one who is not liable to
let his ideals run away with his bet
ter judgment nor his Judgment yield
to tho dictates of political cXpcdicncy.

COMPARATIVE EXHIBIT
Dairy and Beef Animals Shown at the
County Fair, Also Sheep
and Swine.

Marathon county farm boys and
girls will have an opportunity, of see
ing at the Marathon County Fair
Sept. 5-S, an exhibit of profitable and
Improbable farm animals which we
feel certain will convince them of the
advantages of using only pure bred
and superior sires. The exhibit pre-
sented by this association includes
one dairy cow which produced in a
year, 461.S pounds of butter fat,
valued at $15O.75. Her total feed
cost was $6092, leaving a profit above
feed of $S9.S3.
In the pen next to her is a
"boarder" COW with an annual record
of 1865 pounds of butter fat worth
$49.14 and showing a profit of $3.50.
Both of these COWS came from COW
testing associations in Wisconsin and
the production figures are accurate.
To show what beef makers should
aim to produce two steers are on ex-
hibition. One is classed as a choice
baby beef, 16 months old, weighing
1O4O pounds, bought for $10.50 a hun
dredweight, or $10920. In contrast
is a common rough steer, years old,
weighing 920 pounds, bringing Sc so
a hundredweight, or a total of $3.50.
In spite of the ptionally high price
of lambs on the live stock markets of
the country there is still a wide spread
in the price of good and poor lambs.
In one pen there appear three choice
native lambs, averaging GA pounds in
weight and bringing $40 per hundred
weight, or $6.40 apiece. Next to
them three common or Gull lambs,
as much, bring but $3.50
per hundredweight, or $5.44 each.
This difference, while it looks small,
would mean on a carload at least
$4,000.
pigs is pigs" but there are vast
in the kind. For instance,
the prime butcher hogs, averaging
$50 pounds in weight at 1850 per
hundredweight making an average
valuation of $25.13. Besides carrying
such hogs this exhibit shows inferior
hogs known as "skips" on the market
whose average weight is but 125
pounds and whose value is $1,000.

STREET WASHER

A device has been placed upon the
oil tank recently purchased by the
city, which very effectually cleans the
paved streets. A pipe carries the
water from the tank down to a cross
piece about eighteen inches from the
pavement, and from this the water
is let out through about a dozen
curved pipes, about one-quarter inch.
This lets out a volume of sufficient
force to clean the wood or brick pave
ment of every bit of dirt, all of which
is washed to the curb and this enables
street cleaners to shovel up the dirt
without sweeping from the center of
the street. 1t is a much quicker way
of cleaning the streets and does the
work better and at the same time
answers sprinkling for time.

Editor Wausau Pilot:
In the Wausau Record-Herald, is
sue of August 23rd, the editor says,
Defeat McGOvern!" and assigns the
reason Francis E. McGovern could
have and should have vetoed Bill No
452s enacted as Chapter 770, Laws Of
1913, and called the attention of the
Legislature and the people to this
vicious proposition to mislead and
juggle with their rights"
AS usual, the enemies of Mr.. Nc
Govern mis-state the facts Bill 452s
did not become Chapter 77O,-it be-
came Chapter III. Chapter 77O origi-
mated in Bill 629s; Bill 629s was intro
duced by the Judiciary Committee of
the Senate
The bill passed the Senate without
a roll call and without a dissenting
vote, apparently,-such men as Sena-
tors Albers, Burke, Perry and Stevens,
present and voting. A week later it
passed the Assembly by a vote of
seventy-four to four.
The editor of the R-H. takes the
position that Mr.. McGovern should
now be defeated because he signed the
Bill which the members of the Legis-
lature without regard to faction or
party approved, submitting amend
ments TO the Constitution to the peo-
pie. Why shouldn't they be submit
ted to the people? The Constitution
itself says that they should be sub
mitted. 1t would be a violation of the
spirit of the Constitution not to sub
nit amendments when members of
the Legislature so Overwhelmingly
approve them and when they were in
proper form for submission.
If McGovern was wrong, then Sen
ators Albers, Perry, Burke, Stevens,
and other conservative Senators were
wrong in submitting the matter to
Mr. McGovern for approval. AS a
matter of fact, they were both right.
The people ought to be permitted to
pass on any question which involves
an amendment to the Constitution.

PRIMARY ELECTION

The primary election in Wisconsin
takes place tomorrow. 1t promises to
be unusually lively owing to the num-
ber of candidates. The strife is very
bitter between Gov. Philip, Ex-Gov.
McGovern and w. H. Hatton, on the
republican ticket and between LaFol-
lette and Jeffris for U. S. Senator.
There is considerable strife between
candidates in the local field, on both
democratic and republican tickets
The law requires that a candidate
shall receive a percentage of the vote
cast at the last general election to en-
title him to place under the party
designation at the general election in
November. Therefore it is necessary
for the democrats to vote their own
ticket that their candidates may Sc
cure the necessary endorsement.
