To-day Pennsylvania is the most

on Gods footstool. But what of the
future? Many and momentous may
be the changes our nation and our
state in the evolution of our progress
shall witness. New conditions may
develop in connection with change
from a war to a peace basis which
will challenge the profoundest philo-
sophy and bravest statesmanship in
their adjustment to an advancing
civilization. Dangers that We dream
not of ut this moment may In the
far future arise in the solution of
social and economic problems that
will put to severest tests the stability
of our American institutions. but L
have an abiding faith In the conser-
vatism and sobermindedness OF the
American people as q whole, and
particularly of the people of state
in whose arms was Graded the in
FAINT Of democracy and liberty, and
cannot help but feel that this Re-
public that never retreats, and which
in the past has surmounted every OBJ
stacle in the pathway of its develop

zenship under the Stars and Stripes,
and in that citizenship there never
has been any, there never will be
any, superior to citizenship in Penn

SESSION OF WISCONSIN LEGISLA.
TURE is EXPECTED TO BE
A LONG ONE.
FARMERS RULE ASSEMBLY
Lower House Has Largest Rural
Representation Since Session of
1s73.-Democratic Rank Below So
cialistists in Membership.

Madison-The Wisconsin legislature
opened it's biennial session here on
January II. A long session of the leg
islature is expected. Many war prob
lens confront and discussion upon
them is expected to be protracted and
perhaps heated. The problem of the
returning soldier also will be big
factor for the state lawmakers.
Farmers have the largest member
ship in the lower house of the Wis
consin legislature and lawyers the
largest membership in the upper
house. There also are many farmers
in the senate, which would indicate
that much legislation of interest to
rural communities may be enacted at
this session.
The records of the legislature show
that there are forty-three farmers in
the assembly, nineteen business men,
four printers, twelve lawyers, one car
penter, three bankers, one chef, two
machinists, one glass blower, three
real estate and insurance agents, one
vulcanizer, one bricklayer, two con-
tractors, one labor organizer, three
liquor dealers and one hotel proprie-
tor.
Most Farmers Since 1873.
The house has the largest represen-
tation of farmers of any session since
1873, when the Granger movement
was swept into power.
In the senate there are nine lawyers,
four bankers, four businessmen, one
bookkeeper, three real estate and in
surance agents, four farmers. one
publisher, one physician and one con-
tractor.
Following is the composition on a
political basis:
