It will be interesting to watch how many of
the three thousand people who signed petitions
for independent candidates will vote for them
when it comes to election. Now from our in
Ispections of such things in the past we would
say that the candidates would get about fifteen
hundred votes and this may be enough to elect
them
The Conservation Commission appears to
have rescinded its own decision and the slaugh-
ter of the deer is to go on this year again.
WE'LL we might as well get it over with. The
sooner the deer are killed the sooner a lot of
good money spent for protecting" them will
go into more useful channels.
It doesn't matter cent what it cost to try
Frank Lang for murder. He is entitled to a
trial and the county is expected to pay the
cost of it. If he is guilty he should be convict
ed, and if he is innocent he should be acquitted.
The important thing is to settle his guilt or in
Inocence by evidence and not by sympathy.
A grand jury might not return indictments
against everyone in Kenosha who has been vio-
lating the law but grand jury in session would

grand jury.
We are accustomed to take these triumphs of
science in a sort of matter of fact way but
when a little blind girl is brought to see the
light there comes a thrill into hearts which

science is a wonderful thing for humanity.
Moral Support" is a mighty good thing to
put behind these young women who have rails

the men of Kenosha should lay down just twen-
ty-five thousand dollars more to match the gift
of the girls to help themselves.
1t would appear that the Supreme Court of
the United States is more convinced of the con-
stitutionality of the Volstaed act than the av-
erage saloon keeper in Kenosha. 1t can be
added that there are mighty few above the

And just butting into the Democratic cam
paign we would suggest that it might be just

Republicans are going to vote for Mccoy. They
have no idea of switching over to the whole

BY the way: Do any automobile drivers ever
observe the law against racing past school

A Liberty Bond may not be worth hundred
cents on the dollar but just the same these
fellows who are trading them for wild cat Sc
Icurities with promises of getting rich quick are
not showing 1000 intelligence
We can't help remarking in passing that the
president appears to be getting stomach full
