day while debate continued on
the food control bill Prohibition
legislation, it was generally pre-
dicted, will be confined to distilled
liquors following President Will
sons suggestion to prohibition
leaders to drop the fight against
manufacture of beer and wines.
Leaders discussed many proposals
for compromise on the liquor issue but
with little prospect of agreement. A
clear-cut fight and vote next week
were in prospect with both factions ad-
mitting that because OF the presidents
intervention prohibition would extend
| only to distilled spirits. Leaders of the
dry movement are working for the
best possible compromise.
Plan of Leaders.
Senator Martin. the democratic
leader, Senator Chamberlain, in charge
of the fool bill, and some of the other
leaders planned and predicted adop-

liquor distillation and giving the pres

WEDNESDAY, NAY 8, 1917

The abolition Of capital punishment
has been decreed by the state Of MIS-
souri, this past winter and lisa present
being considered by The legislature Of
Illinois. With respect to this matter
Wisconsin leads Missouri and Illinois
by almost seventy years. In the ter
ritorial period executions were Of FREE
quent occurrence in Wisconsin. They
were treated as public holidays, at.
tended by thousands Of people, and
judging from current newspaper ac
counts were exceedingly demoralizing
aEairs In the early ffties the legis-
tnre y" ssed a law changing the PEN
atty for frs degr murderfrom death
to impriso nent FOR life Since its
passage there HIS been no legal in.
Fiction OF lie death PENALTY in Wis.

Boozers Must Paw the Penalty

If you drive an automobile hereafter
you will have to be sober or run the
chance of spending six months in jail
where the seats are not upholstered.
That is one law for which the people
of Wisconsin are thankful TO the pres
eut session of the legislature and to
Senator Bennett, its author. Had
il been a law before, probably many
accidents might have been avoided.
And il should be rigidlY enforced, for
a drunken automobile driver is q men
ace not only TO himself but to all who
may have business or pleasure ont up
on the highway while he is loose.

session Of a violent temper Noticing that
Uncle Nose never mentioned his approach,

RUSH RAILWAY EQUIPMENT.

American manufacturing enterprise
again has demonstrated its ability TO
meet the extraordinary. demands Of
war. II was disclosed at Washington
that within 30 DAYS after the war de-
partment delivered designs for special
locomotives and ears for the troops in
France the first 620 engines and the first
of 5000 cars were ready for shipment
French railroads will not stand the
weight and length of standard Ameri-
can rolling stock The special engines
weigh 10000 pounds and the new ears
are only 80 feet in length to negotiate
the short curves of French roads They
are equipped with French couplings and
the French ears can be used in trains
with the American equipment. The en-
gines are eight-wheel drive type, giving
i them great traction for the heavy loads
they viii haul to the American front
The railway equipment sent from
the United States will be painted battle
ship gray to make it as inconspicuoue as
possible. The first engine bearing the
marking t. S. A., No. - soon viii he

! It is understood that FIVE engineer

men. will handle the new equipment. To
supplement the regular railway, rolling
stock, also, Hanged wheel ri'-s have been
provided for many American motor
trucks and trailers so that they can be
fused on the line. This scheme WIS tried
Iby GEN Pershing' 5 forces in Mexico

Food Conservation.
Bennington BanHcrf

Some people have the idea that
Swheatless days and other food con
servation Ilans are urged because Of
the probable shortage Of food the com
ing winter. but that is not the idea.
The United States has food enough ana
to spare, but we must feed our allies
or ut least help lot. Owing TO the
shortage of shipping, it is essential that
we send food in a. concentrated form
as possible and u.e the hulkier supplies
ourselves. We are not asked to 90 with
out food. but to change our habits 50
as TO include products which are avail
able, but which. in the past, have not
been SO popular The L. 5. Food admin
iStration bureau puts the case as fol
lows:
Our problem is to feed Cur allie
this winter by sending them as much
food as we can of the most Concen-
tratcd nutritive value in the least ship
ping space. These foods are wheat
beef, pork, dai n products, and sugar
The food administration makes il clear
Mt once that this is to be ACCOMPLISHED
not by boarding or by skimping, bat by
substituting food products that cannot
be sent to the soldiers in the trenches
for those that can he sent. We are not
asked to limit ourselves IN any way
that win affect health. Neither are we
asked to greatly change our food habits.
The plan for this is to have one
wheatless meal a day; to use corn, oats.
rye, barley, or mixed cereal rolls, muf-
fins and bread in place Of white bread,
certainly for one meal and, if possible,
for two. We are asked to eat less pas
| try. In the case of ordering white
bread from the baker it is urged that
we do so day in advance that he may
not bake beyond his needs We are
told to cut the loaf on the table and
only as required, and to use all stale
bread for toast and cooking.
