ASKS LAWYERS TO GIVE AID
Provost Marshal General Crowder
Says Legal Advisory Eoard Will
Fail Unless All Cooperate.

Madison-Gov Phillip has received
a telegram from Provost Marshal Gen
eral Crowder saying that the work OF
legal advisory boards will fail unless
all the lawyers in the community CO.
operate with the board.
'"The whole idea,' says General
Crowder, is to mobilize the entire le-
gal profession and the three appoint
ed members are simply to direct the
work in each community.
There is beginning to pour into the
executive office offers o: service from
all sections of the state. Some of the
ablest lawyers have volunteered their
services.
Gov Philip has already nominated
the state legal board OF four lawyers
who will have general supervision.
The ctunty lists of lawyers have been
submitted to President Wilson for the
approval, which is expected within the
next few days.

the fecundity of swine is well appre-

sacrificed when a little forethought

Breeding sows multiply five or six
times as rapidly as other meat ami
mails. They have an average litter OF
Eve or six pigs and may be bred twice
year, although three times In two
years accords more with current farms
practice. The filters increase In Size
on the average, until sows are i've or
six years old. However, large pro.
portion of the sows are sold after pro-
ducing one or two filters and before
they have reached the period of great
est productivity.

ELECTION FOR RAGUsE SEAT
Other Vacancies in Legislature Cannot
Be Filled Without Special
Act of That Body.

Madison-Despite the fact that there
are al vacant seats in the Wis
consin legislature only that formerly
occupied by State Senator Frank RAJ
guse, Milwaukee, Eighth senatorial dis
trict, will be filed by special election.
This was revealed following receipt
by Gov. e. L. Phillip of an opinion
from Atty-Gen. Walter G. owen, who
held that the governor may order spe-
cial elections only in cases where a
vacancy has been officially called to
his attention by the legislature.
The expulsion of Raguse was placed
before the governor in a report by the
state senate. Vacancies in the seats
of Assemblyman w. A. Campbell of
Milwaukee, now in the navy, and Sell
ator Pullen of Fond du Lac, now in
France, have not been called to his at
tention.
There are other vacancies where
members of the legislature are holding
state jobs, but these instances have
never been placed before the executive
in official statements.

Washington, Nov. 26.-An offer by

tain officers and men of two American
destroyers for their services in COM
batting German submarines has been
declined, Secretary Daniels an
nounced, because the laws of this
country prevent soldiers and sailors
from receiving decorations from for

Lieutenant Commanders Charles A..

be nominated for the distinguished
service order; Lieut.. Frank Loftin and

the distinguished service medal The
names of the ships to which the Off

to attack merchant ships which were
being conveyed through the war zone.

VALUE OF sILAGE FOR SHEEP
Reduces Cost of Raising Animal and
Supplies succuience, Palatabiiity I,
and Variety. :,

The addition of silage to ratiOns for,
all classes of sheep reduces their cost
and supplies succulence, palatabilify
and variety. Likewise, rotten, moidy,
sour or frozen silage should not be
used. Pregnant ewes should receive
from three to four pounds per head
daily during the winter. This should
be supplemented with two or three
ounces per head daily Of cottonseed
cake and some hay. After the lambs
are born silage increases the milk
flow of the ewes. In the fattening OF
lambs and yearlings for market the
cheapest gains have usually BEEN
made when silage constituted part
of the ration. Rams winter well on
silage as a part of their feed.

Diplomat Reported to Have Left

Stockholm, Sweden, Nov. 26.-Ac>
cording to the Tidningen, Russian
diplomat left Stockholm on Thur sday
for Petrograd with orders to hand to
the Russian revolutionary government
proposals for peace by the central
powers.
The bolsheviki government at Petro-
grad, according to a report from Hap
aranda, has sent representatives to
meet German Socialist delegates, prob
ably at Stockholm, to arrange an ar
mistice and negotiate peace. 1t is
understood that the delegates from
both sides will hide their identity.
Petrograd. Nov. pa reduction, of
the Russian armies, beginning with the
class CONSUMPTION in 1899, has been
proclaimed by M. Lenine, the bolsheviki
leader, in an official announcement.
The order is to take effect immedi-
ately.
The note of Leon Trotzky, the boil
sheviki foreign minister, to the allied
embassies, conveying the announce
ment of the proposal for an armistice,
reached the embassies. The text fol-
lows:
II herewith have the honor to in
form you, Mr.. Ambassador, that the
all-RusSian congress of soldiers and
workmen's delegates organized on Oc-
tober % a new government in the form
of q council of national commission
ers. The head of this government is
Vladimir Ilich Lenine. The direction
of the foreign policy has been intrust-
ed to me, in the capacity of national
commissioner for foreign affairs.
Drawing attention to the text of
the offer of an armistice and demo-
cratic peace on the basis of no annex
atoms or indemnities and the self-de-
termination Of nations, approved by
the all-Russian congress of soldiers
and workmen's delegates, have the
honor to beg you to regard the above
document as a formal offer of an i'm
mediate armistice on all fronts and the
Immediate opening Of peace negotia-
tions-an offer with which the authori-
tative government of the Russian re-
public has addressed itself Simuitane-
ously to all the belligerent peoples and
their governments.
Accept my assurance, Mr.. Ambassa-
dor, of the profound respect of the sol
diers' and workmen's government for
the people of France, which cannot
help aiming at peace, as well as all the
rest of the nations exhausted and made
bloodless by this unexampled slaugh-
ter.

EAGER FOR
TEST OF LOYALTY
SENTIMENT AMONG NEENAH
RESIDENTS is FOR sPE-
CIAL ELECTION.
ARE AGAINST PARTY LINES
Voters Want TWO Candidates, One
Who Will Support the Presidents
War Program and One to Rep
resent the Pacifists.

Neenah-The people of Neenah are
on the issue Of loyalty, confident that
If senatorial election is called, Wis
consin's critics will be silenced. Sentl-
ment is overwhelmingly for an cleo
tion;- there is scarcely any support for
an appointment by the governor.
Republicans rub elbows with demo-
Gratis in the election demand. Leaders
on both sides say it is time to forget
party lines. Ask man ii he is re-
publican and in most instances he will
say, Ordinarily am a republican, but
will support the best American can
didate for the senatOrship regardless
of politics." The democrats take the
same position. They say they want to
support man who will stand back OF
the president, be he republican or
democrat, although they seem to feel
that they are entitled to a democratic
senator because the late Senator Hust-
ing was of their party. But they DO
not press that point.
Neenah is kelly alive to the impor-
lance of an election on the loyalty
question; in fact not a few men here
seem to regard it as a personal mat
ter. They say that when man is in
suited he fights; they say the good
standing OF Wisconsin has been chal-
lenged and that every man in it ought
to fight to remove the stain.
There is a demand for two candi-
dates, one who is out-and-out in his
support of President Wilson's war
program, anG one who represents the
pacifists. The people here will have
little patience with politicians and
candidates who confuse the issue OF
make it hard to get thoroughly rep
resentatiye expression of popular
opinion They are absolutely conf
dent that is HE voters of the state are
given a .cia8n crack at the issue,
the result sweeping victory
for Ioyalty.1

ENTITLED TO COMPENSATION
Citizens of Country Now In War With
the United States May Collect
Under State Workman's Act.


Madison The fact that a man is a
citizen of a country with which the
United States is now at war does not
bar him from collecting under the
Wisconsin workmen's compensation
act.
This is the announcement made by
the Wisconsin industrial commission
following receipt of an opinion in the
matter from the war trade board.
Fred M Wilcox, a member OF the
commission, has just returned from
Washington where he was summoned
for a conference on the question.
The only exception to this rule is in
the case of persons proclaimed by the
president to be "allies of the enemy
because they engage in hostile acts.

MAY REDUCE COAL RATES
Indications Point to a Drop in HauIs
for Distance Less Than Eighty
five Miles Of Lake Ports

Madison-A conference on the
freight rates on soft coal for distan-
ces less than eighty-five miles of the
lake ports and for the district west of
Madison as far as Lancaster was held
with Railroad Commissioner Carl D..
Jackson.
All the other coal rates in the state
were announced by the commission a
few days ago. 1t is probable that
from the result of the conference there
will be slight reduction on the soft
coal rates for short distances.
A hearing also was given by the
commission to the request of the cleo
trio company of Sheboygan for an in
crease in rates A compromise prop
osition has been offered by the COM
pany and the matter will be taken up
again in one week.
