OVER TWENTY-FIVE DIFFER.
ENT SPELLINGS FOR STATE
Search Through Wisconsin's His.
torical Records Shows That Name
Was Spelled Many Ways.

A search through the historical
records of Wisconsin just completed
shows that there are over 25 differ
ent spellings for the name Of the
state
The name is supposed to be of
Indian origin and is generally con-
ceded to mean the gathering of
waters" a name applied to the Wis
consin river by the native residents
of the section. What the Indians
called it sounded something like the
present name of the state and each
of the explorers spelled it the way
he thought it sounded as it came
from Indian Threats. Some of
these early explorers spelled it
different each time they used the
name
1t was in 1878 that Father Mar
quette reached Wisconsin and called
the river and the present state site
"Meskousing." He later called it
"Miskous." Still later he gave it
the name of Wisconsin"
With the latter spelling it re-
manned until the coming of Father
Hennepin in 1900 when the latter
referred to it as Wisconsin" with
the alternative of "Ouisconsin. Z"
The latter became the common
French form.
During the term Of Gov. Doty, 1S41
to 1914, there arose controversy
over the spelling. The legislature
and the governor disagreed over the
question. Doty was determined
and he spelled the name as he favor
ed it, WISCONSIN" As soon as
Doty was out of office the legisla-
ture passed an act, Jan. 30, 1915,
establishing the present spelling as
the zone and only" correct name Of
the state.
The fact that many of the early
accounts of Wisconsin started the
name of the state with an IN" puz-
zles historians but they have come to
the conclusion that the IN" was
the result Of a Typographical error
and that it was always supposed to
have started with a CIV" sound.

People VS.. Leaders.

1t will not be long before an
other election comes along, and now
is a good time for the people to be-
gin discussion Of possible candidates
for public office.
When the people crack the whip
the "Ieaders" trot along like docile
lambs They dare not go against
the powerful viii Of the voters
determinedly expressed. But when
the people are apathetic the self
created leaders are quick to seize the
reins, flourish the lash, and drive the
voters like sheep to a slaughter pen.
In isolated cases where the people
have selected their own candidates
they have invariably elected good
men who were true to their trust.
When the designation of candidates
is left to the leaders the fortunate
candidate must do the bidding Of his
boss, knowing full well that a failure
to do so viii put an end to his
political career.
Do a lot Of thinking, and then do
as much talking,

Who WIN Build National Highway.

Nine States in the East and
Northeastern part of the Union,
although they have but per cent of
the area of the United States,
posses one-half the national wealth.
Some taxpayers in these States,
New York, Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Maine, New Hampshire,
Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode
Island, and Connecticut, sometimes
argue against the idea of national
highways to be built and forever
maintained by the National Govern
ment, on the ground that they will
have to pay half the cost of such
roads.
Probably they will. But they
have to pay half the cost Of all the
expensive hauling now done over all
bad roads of the nation. These
nine States, paying half the taxes of
the nation, have to pay half of all
national works. They have to suffer
have the ills of all national rcverses.
They have to pay half the cost Of all
the money lost by all the other
States through having bad roads.
1t is as impossible to live outside
the working of the laws of economics
as it is to work outside the laws Of
nature. The apple falls, be it in
Maine or California, and the tax
paid, is half collected from half the
wealth. The expense Of poor roads
is half paid by half the national
wealth, which suffers half the loss
And while half the cost of the whole
countrywide system Of national
highways viii eventually be paid by
the nine States in which half Of the
wealth of the nation is located, they
will also reap half the benefits
though they possess but a little part
of half the mileage of the proposed
system

What Is Oldest Known Road
Material?

Doubtless the oldest material for
road was wood, in the form Of
branches laid across muddy stretches
of paths, much as the familiar
corduroy" road is still made to-day
in backwoods districts.
But the oldest hard road material
is rtone or brick, and among the
claimants for hoary age in con
sidering the first forms of built
highways, is asphalt. Some com
mentators of the Bible claim that the
word "slime" in the quotation "slmc
had they for mortar" to build the
Tower Of Babel should be translated
as "bitumen," which is asphalt
However that may be, there is no
boubt about the translation Of an
inscription found on a paving block
in Babylon. 1t reads:
Nebuchadnezzar, King of Baby
lon, he who made Esaglia and Ezida
gloious, son Of Nabopoassar. King
of Babylon, The streets Of Babylon
the procession Street Of Nabu and
Marduk, my lords, which Naho-
polassar, King of Babylon, the
father who begot me, has made a
road Rlstening with asphalt and
burnt brick; |, the wise srppliant
who fears their lordships, placed
above the bitumen and burnt bricks
a mighty superstructure of shining
dust, made them strong within with
b.tumen and burnt bricks al a high

you traverse these streets in joy

Zero Milestone Like Rome's
Golden Marker.


When Dr. S. NJ. johnson first
suggested the idea Of the Zero Mile
stone which, on the meridian o.
Washington, located just south of
| he White House, now serves as the
starting point for the calculation of
all mileage from the Capital City,
ne said.
"Rome marked the beginnings of
her system Of highways, which bound
aer widely scattered people together,
by a golden milestone in the Forum.
The system of highways radiating
from Washington to all boundaries
of the national domain and all parts
of the Western Hemisphere will do
vastly more for national unity and
for human unity than even the roads
of the Roman Empire.
The milestone was authorized by
Congress, which directed that the
Secretary Of War see TO its erection
from designs approved by the Fine
Arts Commission. Accordingly,
the stone was erected, gift to the
Government from many individuals
and associations, among them the
Lee Highway Association, the
American Automobile Association,
the National Automobile Association,
and the National Highways Assocla-
ton.
