SENATOR SIMPSON'STAnTS
FIVE CENT FARE FIGHT

TRENTON, Jan. Ex-senator
Simpson, of Hudson, in q statement
issued here last night in reference
to his five cent trolley fare bill,
attention to the uselessness Of the
Public Utility Commission under the
present federal laws. He recites the
tact that the utility companies,
after being refused increases by the
state board, utterly disregard the
state courts, and apply to the federal
courts whore they are given new
rates.
at may seem radical to INTRODUCES
a bill fixing q five cent fare and
an uneconomical and unscientific
measure stated Senator Simpson,
"But 1t is the only alternative to
avoid this destruction of rate fixing"
I'm this state of facts" continues
the statement, "the public utility
commission is useless. / therefore
introduce my bill to fix a five cent
fars and it has the merit and in fact
1t is the only way out of a situation
which touches every n in the state
injuriously."
The minority leader pre-
sented a resolution condemning the
action of United States Senators
Edge and Frelinghuysen in voting in
liNUT VI liS StdtluE u lTuGlldH H.
Newberry Of Michigan.
ut is understood that Newberry's
election" stated Mr.. Simpson. IF
indeed he was elected, cost the SUM
Of over a quarter of a million dol
lars, and he only escaped imprison-
iment on the conviction for crime
of having corruptly spent money in
,sJtaining his seat in the United
States senate on q leNal technieality.
THE great opposition to his sit
ting in the United States senate was
a great opportunity for the senator's
from New Jersey to show that this
state does not approve of buying
seats in the United States senate.
IL, after the admitted fact that this
huge sum was spent to obtain the
election of the said Mr.. Newberry.
He q be made a member Of that
body and can vote. then 1t Is impos-
sible that the senate should receive
that respect and reverence on the
part OF the people of the country,
which is so essential for the MAIN
tenance of law and order in these
troublous times"
In his statement, the Hudson sem
ator stated that the action of the
two New Jersey United States SEN
ators in voting for the seating of
the Michigan senator was "deplora-

WARN AGAINST
"OPEN SHOP"
Bio Business Men of State
Urge Employers to Coop
crate With Men

NEWARK, Jan. 31:-Some OF
New Jerseys biggest business men.
members of a committee of indus
trial relations of the New Jersey
state Chamber of Commerce. In a
report made public today cautioned
all employers to avoid "anti-union
coercion, to steer clear of the vari-
GUS open shop movements and TO
cooperate with the workers II every
possible way" The report was writ
ten after o. careful survey extending
over a period of nine months. 1t
has been approved by the executive
committee and adopted by the
board of trustees OF the state cham
Der.
1t is pointed out that there are
three roads open to employers. One
is the road of constructive achieve
ment within the shop, another is
that of constructive cooperation be-
tween organizations of employers
and those of workmen, n a third
is that of the open shop" This
last movement in the opinion of the
committee is undermining the con-
hdence of labor in employers and
running the foundation for coopera-
ton between them"
Similar campaigns in former
periods of depression" the report
continued, "have only resulted in
redoubled growth of unionism and
the adoption by it of more extreme
measures in the periods of prosper
ity which followed and there is no
reason to believe that the result Of
this campaign will be different.
Campaigns Of this nature are lead
ing to oppression by employers and
are playing into the hands of revo-
1~utionary elements.
The road of a%nti-union coercion
appears to us to be dangerous. 1t
all ought by all means to be avoid
ed"
The committee strongly urges the
maintenance of pensional depart
ments and suggests the employment
of experts in the problems of en-
ployers and employees.

Members of the Dodgeville Cow
Testing association met March 3rd,
and reorganized for the fifth consec-
utive year. The most important bus
mess was the cost of testing for the
coming year and it is of interest to
some to know that the entire cost of
the work will be $4,000 per member
which is considerably less than last
year. Anyone wishing to join and
desiring further information may
consult the tester, the County Agent,
or any of the directors.

Eradicate Canada Thistle.

BY far the most troublesome noX-

is the Canada thistle. 1t is peren-

Thistle patches are becoming quite
common in Iowa County and unless
something more than cutting off the
tops is done to eradicate them it will
only be few years when they will be
as common as quack grass. A pres

to prevent seeding but that does not
kill the plant.
Alfalfa Smothers Thistle.
The most practical and successful
means of killing thistle is by growing
alfalfa. Not half crop but bump
er crop for a period of years. 1t
is hardly advisable to try it unless
the soil and seed bed is given careful
consideration. Apply lime or Innate.
Sew 20 pounds of Grimm seed per
acre; use barley or an early oat for
nurse crop and cut it for hay when
headed out; keep all livestock from
the field or patch; cut only two crops
each year and top dress fine manure
lightly after first cutting.
If you are interested in graduating
that acre of thistle this coming year,
get in touch with your County Agent.

Norwich Still Unbeaten.

Morvich's impressive victory in the
Kentucky Derby showed that the pub
lies faith was not misplaced. The
little brown colt gave the same evil
dence of class that marked his per-
formances as two-year-old.
Mr.. BLOCKS horse has routed the
cynics from the start. They pointed
to his size. but he picks UP stake
weight without a falter. They
pointed TO his ugly knee, but Nor
vieh himself ignores that blemish.
They pointed to his breeding as a
sign that no might not like distance
but after leading his field in the
Louisville classic he drew away from
the others in the stretch. They
pointed to the fact that his training
for the Derby seemed more like prep
aration for a sprint but he ran the
last quarter of mile in the big race
in 25 20 seconds without the touch
of whip or spur.
When Man o. War was retired it
seemed that the turf must go without
a hero for years. He was regarded
not only as the horse of the century
but as the greatest thoroughbred that
ever raced; every new champion
would fall in his shadow. Yet Nor
vich, however his performances may
compare with those of Man o. War.
has established place in popular
favor quite as high as Mr.. RIDDLES
horse held.
Part of Morvichs popularity is due
to the fact that his owner has treated
the colt as il the public owned him.
His training, his trials and his con.
dition have been an open book. But
the greater part Of Morvich's popu-
larity comes from the recognition of
his courage.

Spring Weather Forecast.
A Boston Prophet Claims Perfect
Score SO Far In May.

To THE New YORK HERALD: My de-
tailed pre-statement OF the weather
written January / has been exactly
verified on every date. Using the same
method OF forecasting on April I made
detailed statement of what the
weather would be from May l to Sep
tember /, and it also is proving TO be
correct.
The May weather prediction was as
follows: May IA. fair and warm; 5-S,
wet and warm: 9-12, fair and warm :
13. IA, fair. cool; 10, wet. cool; 1924.
fair and cool: 25-27, fair and warm ;
1881, wet and warm.
While the periods are put, In regular
form, as, for instances, May Ia and May
SIS, IL might be better. because more
understandable and therefore exact, IL
they were given as. say. May Ia and
May AS. The exact time OF the change
is of course anywhere within the twenty
four hours instead Of at midnight.
The April record, computed backward
from May, verified exactly
My forecast gives the record by dates
through the summer. and not only the
complete weather OF the summer but
monthly totals. as we'll as periods and
dates, including the severe local storms.
1t should he noted there is upward OF
a half days difference between New

Prosecutions for Negligence.

The indictment in which ELI ID.
DuPuY. manager of the Hotel Mar
garet, and ALBERT BRADIcIcH, YER
min exterminator OF 3S5 Marion
street, Brooklyn, are charged with
manslaughter in the second degree in
causing the death OF FREMONT M.
JACKSON. "a years old, and his wife,
ANNE. G9. whose bodies were found
recently in their apartment in the
annex Of the hotel at ia Columbia
Heights, Brooklyn, is returned under
the third paragraph of Section 1862
OF the Penal Law, which reads.
such homicide Is manslaugthter in
the second degree when committed
without design to effect death
by any act, procurement or cul-
pablo negligence or any person. which.
according to the provisions OF this
article, does not constitute the crime
or murder IN tho first or second de-
gree, nor manslaughter in the first
degree"
The charge against DuPUY and
BRApICrcH is based on the theory
that in using poison gas to extermi.
nate vermin in another room they
we're guilty Of culpable negligence in
that they did not take reasonable
precautions to safeguard Mr. and
/ Mrs. JACKSON, and that the death OF
the Jacksons was due to this neglect
The progress Of the case will be fol
lowed with great interest, because
the question of what constitutes
culpable negligence Is OF Immediate
/ Importance TO all citizens.
The unusual circumstances Of this
case recall the gassing Of the frosh
men in Cornell University at theii
1894 dinner by the sophomores OF
the university. which created @
countrywide scandal. In the Cornell
sase, however, the gas was deliber
ateIy run through tubes into small
room off the dining room. This room
was used by the COOKS. walters and
