DEPARTMENT DEVOTED TO INTERESTS OF NEWS READERS
something a a to

from any consideration from the game
of politics. Governor Blain's veto
lof the park projects is unaccountable.
In my judgement it is veto the most
lacking in vision that / have ever
known in this state. Absolutely Their
is not a shadow of reason in the gov.
ernor's conduct. The parks were
to be paid for by the well-to-do. Gods
patient poor a can't phrase of de-
mogogues would not contribute a con-
per. If the obligation had been upon
them, then this veto might have been
expected. 1t then would be quite in
Sne with the petty politics of our pre-
ifessional reformers. The park bills
in my opinion represented the acme of
! good work by our legislature AS you
say, they were almost passed unani-
mously. That is the fact. Now comes
one opinionated individual to inter
| pose. Never was veto power more mis-
used. In truth, Governor Blaine has
made himself CONSPICUOUS and notori.
Gus by setting his opinion up diamet-
r1caIly against that of the whole legis-
lature on fifty-odd issues. He is Wis.
consin's veto governor. Some of his
vetoes are defensible. Most of them are
; reprehensible. am extremely sorry
about this park business. But, Mr..
Jones, we yet will get these parks
created. Public sentiment is set for
them, Governor Blaine to the contrary
Notwithstanding
I have the honor to be

The Arnold bill which substantially
doubles the inheritance tax rates, will
not bring into the state treasurer dur.
ing the current fiscal year very
large sum in addition to what would
have been received under the former
rate. The reason for this is that in
the case of big estate the actual re-
turns seldom get into the state trea-
8ury within year after they accrue.
The receipts from the inheritance for
the fiscal year which closed June 80
were about $1,265,O00.

The state park bill carrying about
$360,000 in appropriations and which
was provided for in a one-years in

by Gov. Blaine in the last hours of

on what seems be good ground that
the proposed northern state park, had
the bill been signed, would have,
through the advertisements of it's
creation as public pleasure grounds,
brought into the state in the coming
two years from tourists, an amount
several times greater than it's propos-
ed cost.-Richland Center Democrat.

The appropriations made by the
