 Situation.

The report of the New York fed eral reserve bank just issued shows that the bank has earned largely in excess of last year, when the earnings showed 130 per cent. The first six months of this year show enormous earnings and the year, if nothing hap pens to prevent ordinary business be- ing conducted, should run close to 200 per cent on the invested capital. The net return from the federal bank was approximately 92 per cent of it's cap italization, which went to the govern ment, aside from dividends paid mem- Der banks and $6,O00,000 added to surplus.
 Frank A. Vanderlip, head of the big banking interests of New York City, predicted the failure of the fed eral reserve banking system, but the wisdom of the people back of the measure has been more than verified.

MEXICAN SILVER DECREASES

The exports of Mexican silver are decreasing day by day on account of the effort that Americans and Mexi- cans are making to build up the mint age of Mexican silver into dollars and half dollars. The people of Mexico need silver coinage badly and with the assimilation of their product of the white metal in this way the small supply from Canada and other silver producing countries will not meet the heavy demands for the Far East uses. The opening of the hints of the Uni ted States would stabilize silver and would build up our world trade to a dizzy height.

Italy reports that there are 1S6,- 900 places where wines and other ex- hilirating drinks may be had for it's 40,000,000 inhabitants and few guests. On the other hand France is counting up the enormous exporta- tion of wines during the years, part of which has gone into Mexico, Cuba and other near-to-the United States places. If few more places go dry France vii be able to pay off her national debt in wine alone.

that of providing suitable public
buildings, passable thoroughfares, and
pleasant parks The proposed junior
high school would fill two of those
needs. The land the board of educa-
ton proposes to purchase for the city
schools would be splendid public
Improvement. The tract would cost
money, but would be worth more than
it would cost
At the present time when the pu-
pills desire to play tennis or ball they
must travel to the fair ground; the adj
ditional land would add much to the
expansion of the young life Of the
town. There would then be enough
ground without playing in the street.
Besides all this, the proposed build
ing should face Second street. 1t
same as the high school building. 1t
would be crime to erect it otherwise.
The part of a good business man,
the part of good citizen is to make
the town attractive. If the land is
purchased it will become a part of the
parking system, plan to make Bara-
boo the most beautiful town in the
country. The Junior high school
building is surely needed and while
doing the job why not do it right.
The cost will be spread over a long
term of years so that the tax during
any one year will be slight. Many
are not informed on the proposition;
every voter should be. 1t will be q
pleasure to see the proposed improve
ment become reality. There is no
mistake in taking this step; it will
be big asset to Baraboo.

bring order out of the chaos into
which we seem to be plunged at the
present time. Just to think Of such a
wise, firm hand and mind such bust

brings a feeling of rest after turmoil.
We need something more than an

eral Wood as an army man. We made
a mistake however in gratefully put
ting General Grant in the presidents
chair. We hear the slogan HE had
a raw DEAL" quite as often as we heard

A slogan accomplishes wonders SON

eral Woods treatment seemed most
unfair. He bore it like soldier and
a gentleman and we admired and re-
spected him for doing so; we have a
real affection for Leonard Wood.

der to extort higher price. There is
no more to be said for this than Tor
any other form of extortion. The way
to prosper is by increasing the coun-
try's wealth-not by reducing it.
It may be true, in special cases, that
a single class of producers might re-
duce it's hours and cut down its pro-
duction and thus extort higher
price for it's product. 1t is obvious,
however, that as soon as all other pro-
ducers begin doing the same thing,
they will more than nullify whatever
advantage the first group may nave
won at the start There will be less
of everything produced, relative prices
will be as they were before, and the
only thing achieved will be general
scarcity for everybody.
If the miners, for instance, think
that they can, by working six hours
day produce enough coal to buy the
products of ten-hour day on the part
of farmers, they must think that far
mers are an easy mark. If farmers
were to cut down their working year
to about three fifths, or even three
fourths of the present working year,
the miners and all others who are
now complaining about the high cost
of living would begin to feel that they
had a real grievance. Ii a FARMER
can't buy enough coal for his uses
with the products of a six hour day,
he can either work more hours and
keep warm, or work six hours and
stay cold The miner, also, IL he
finds the market value OF his day, S
coal production does not buy him as
much meat, bread and vegetables as
he wants, has the choice of working
longer hours and getting more food,
or of saving the two hours, and tax
ing up a hole in his belt.
If it comes to a contest between far-
mers and town workers as to which
side can produce least and get most,
it is not difficult to see which side Will
come out ahead. Farmers can 1--we IN
physical comfort whatever they might
lack in the way of luxuries with very
little help from town workers. me
town workers might supply themselves
with some Of the luXuries OF life. Dut
they are dependent upon the good,
honest and efficient work of farmers
for the necessaries. If farmers be-
come industrial slackers, the town
people Will have to live, il they can,
on 1uxuries-they can not get the
necessaries of subsistence. However,
farmers are not the kind of men who
become industrial slackers.

BOUND TO HAVE DAYLIGHT

At least one Chicago industry is
going to initiate daylight saving as a
particular benefit to it's employees. 1t
is very probable that others will fol-
low. And when the movement to-
ward short afternoons attracts the
notice of the mass of the workers in
offices, shops and factories it readily
is conceivable that daylight saving
shall be it's own salvation.
We have had two years of daylight
saving. Those two summers of
pleasant afternoons and long even
ings have left an impression upon
the jewellers in the city. We think
the city folks would hesitate to work
an injustice upon the rural districts
by insisting upon daylight saving
rule disadvantageous to farmers. Yet
it will be difficult to prove to the city
workers that so long as they deliver
their full days work they are un-
just to the farmers b. disposing
their hours in an unusual way.
1t should be a matter of unconcern
to the farmer if the clerk or the
office worker or the skilled crafts
man wants to begin an hour earlier
IN the morning and quit an hour
earlier in the afternoon The main
hing Is to get the work done
Some industries are dependent
upon others; so that unless there is
agreement between them, daylight
saving might be loss to one of
them establishing it alone. Daylight
saving to be generally efficient ought
to be co operative throughout all
those industries whose activities do
not depend upon immutable condi-
tions. This so long as daylight saw
ing is the concern of one community.
When the nation shall adopt it again
all will be weI1-Chicago Tribune.

BILL BARNES AND BOOZE

We Republicans have our troubles
too. Bill Barnes, the big ex-boss OF
New York, who sued Roosevelt for Ii
bel and who but that is closed
chapter until November 2-is clamor-
ing wildly for a Republican plank de-
claring against prohibition. Bill Bar
mes won't get much further west than
59th street with his proposition. But
he will make a lot of Republicans
blush. 1t does a man good to blush
for his party. 1t keeps him from
thinking his party is bigger than his
country. So Bill Barnes, of Albany,
is doing real service to mis- party in
clamoring for booze in the platform.
Long may he wave. A party can't
have the itch to make people laugh
ait it; a party can't have the mango
to spoil it's beauty, nor the D. r. to
scare it into swearing off; but it can
have men like Barnes, OF New York,
whose power coupled with their gen
eral damnphoolishness keep self
respecting partisans in a meek frame
of mind, and give the party "an
humble and a contrite hearth" So here
is to Bill Barnes first in the hearse
and last to leave it; long may he

Bows In the City and the Farm

Only little dispute that occurred at
a small gathering recently. OF course
it happened here in town. The ladies
were saying how rich the farmers
were getting. When I got to the
school grounds there were about 100
boys, almost grown men, playing ball
That struck me to give those ladies a
rub.
When the farmer boys get home
from school they get into their over
alls and go the barn. They get into
manure almost over their shoe tops,
fork it out, then feed and bed the
horses, cattle and pigs and feed the
chickens.
II the farmers do get rich it is
because they all have to work. little
and big.

Making long and varied trips.

Stood beside the greatest lakes;
Travelled DER the boundless prairies.
Where so e'er my fancy takes.
Thence toward the mountain ranges,
have turned my romping feet;
Tramped among the mighty canyons,
Far removed from summers heat.
Still by wanderlust led onward,
I have climbed to snow-capped
peaks,
Where the workshops Of Dame Ma

Capered in such funny freaks.
I have often gazed enraptured,
Been spell-bound by wondrous
sights;
AS from depths my eyes have risen
Toward the heavenward towering
heights.
Then, I've stood in the great cities,
Watched the tread of many feet;
AS they moved upon their mission,
Up and down the busy street
But my heart reverts so often,
To the homeland Of my birth;
To the great state of Wisconsin,
Land fglory and Of worth.

Thou to me art passing fair;
Like a queen, among her sisters.
