CAR THIEVES
NOW AT WORK
OVER COUNTY
Three Stolen Machines Re-
ported to Sheriff.
Work Now on Clues.

Car thieves are evidently at work
pursuing their nefarious trade in
Grant county In the old days similar
thieves stole horses and were hung
for it. The modern version of a horse
thief is car stealer.
Thursday night a Ford Tudor Sc
dan. 1924 model, owned by c. L. Good
rich of Fl Atkinson, was stolen in
front of the Northwestern hotel at
Cuba City. The car was locked but
the thieves broke the glass and mo-
tored away. The car was insured
against theft.
The same night a Jewett roadster
owned by a Milwaukee travelling man,
was stolen from its parking place on
a busy street of Platteville.
Tuesday night Ford touring car
owned by a Boscobel man was stolen
from in front of restaurant in that
city
Sheriff Livingston has all numbers
and a full description of each stolen
machine. He and his men are at work
on clues which may lead to the recov-
cry of the machines.

THE SATURDAY STORM

Lightning struck two trees near the
Tony Schuster place in the third ward
during Saturday nights storm. The
bark was torn and the ground dis
turbed below the trees but no serious
damage resulted. The reports from
the bolts were heard all over Lancas-
ter.
Burning out of a $4,000 volt trans
former at Fennimore, due to a swing
ing ground, threw the local electric
service out for few minutes Saturday
night. The local force was on the job
at once, effecting cut out at Fenni-
more end to give local service, soon
after making repairs there.
The story that Cuba City had been
blown away by cyclone Saturday
night was an easily proven canard.
A phone call to the News office there
Monday elected the information that
a high wind and rain had visited Cuba
City but no serious damage occurred.
Another report agog that Boscobel had
been damaged by high winds proved a
fake

Gambling With the Elements.

The farmer is a born gambler. Not
with cards, dice or games of chance
but with supreme stakes that he may
feed the world. And that is why far
mers are born grumblers and born
pessimists. They can't help it.
The farmer casts his investment, his
seed, his labor, his time against the
weather. Hazards assail him at every
hand. Too much rain or too little rain.
Too much cold or too much heat.
Frost or hail Long continued drought.
Insect plaques. Army worms. Fungi.
Animal disease And so on. What the
farmer has to contend with is a
plenty.
When we hear the farmer bellyach-
ing about the weather it is we'll to be
a little sympathetic instead of critical.
The poor man is gambling his all
against the elements and at long odds.
No wonder he always qualities when
you speak of good weather. No one ev-
er heard a farmer chime in enthus-
iastically about the weather. If it's
fine he is afraid it's getting too dry.
If it rains he's afraid it will rot the
seed in the ground. If it's warm he's
afraid there will be drought and the
corn will shrivel If it's cool the corn
won't mature. If it's wet enough for
good pasture the small grain will
blight Etc.
The worst of it is that the farmer
is generally right. A born gambler
and all considered a pretty good sport
at that.

Flashes
Life is ShOrt-Tell the Truth"
Two Old Fools.

Two Old Fools.
Two fools lived in a town for years
without speaking. Behind the back
they each cursed the other heartily.
Both fools were good fellows Each
good in his own way. But toward each
other they showed their worst side.
Time went on and the fools got old.
Then one day something happened
and the fools began to speak. BY
chance one did the other a favor. Now
they are on friendly terms.
What waste! A lifetime of the
possibilities of friendship nearly gone.
All wasted in hating.
What does one man amount to any
how? A blade of grass? A grain of
sand on the beach of time? A spark
that flies upward? Less even than
these. One man amounts to nothing in
the eternal scheme of things. A week
or two after we are gone and the
world, except for our loved ones, has
forgotten. Why waste life in hating
Be big enough to take your enemy
by the hand and say: Come let us
be friends for the little time that is
left u.s." If he is a man he will re-
spect you for holding out the friendly
hand.

THE UNION MEETINGS

The attendance at the union meet
ings has been getting larger every
night. Of course, on account of the
storm Saturday the attendance was
not quite as large, but considering the
weather on that night the crowd was
large. On Sunday afternoon Mr.. Smith
spoke to about 200 men on the sub
ject, "Will Leading a Moral Life Save
Me?' 1t was a heart gripping address.
The meeting for women was well at
tended, in fact the crowd was SO
large that some were forced to stand
and about 25 were turned away be-
cause there was not even standing
room.
By this time all Lancaster knows
that Mr.. Smith is not an evangelist of
the sensational sort He brings the
truth home in fearless manner and
his words touch the heart of his audi
ence.
The meetings are now held in the
Grantland every evening at 1880. The
afternoon meetings this week will be
at the Baptist church, except the Sat
urday afternoon meeting which will
be held in the Congregational church.
On Friday there will be no meetings
because the high school students will
hold a declamatory contest both af-
ternoon and evening in the Grantland.
Next Sunday all the Sunday schools
will have a rally in the Grantland at
$50, so come to the Grantland at
that hour. A union service will b eheld
at II o'clock. At 8 p. m. there will be
another service for men md women
and at 1880 the evening service will
be held. A meeting for all Sunday
school teachers is called for THURSDAY
evening after the regular service. All
teachers and officers of the various
churches are asked to make special
effort to be present.

TAX POLICY
Richland Center Man Says
Farmers of State Are
Going Bankrupt.

Scoring the state tax policy, saying
that in Richland Center several fine
store locations are vacant, a $4,000
farm can find no one to pay taxes on
it, 0. B. James, Richland hardware
man, addressed mass meeting held
there recently to form a Taxpayers
association. Some of Mr.. James re-
marks were as follows:
Few of us realize the serious con-
dition that now confronts farmers
laborers, mechanics, business and pro-
fessional men, he said.
Gov. Blaine informs us that no in
dustries are leaving the state. Gov.
Blaine is mistaken We are losing our
greatest industry and the one upon
which we all depend-farming.
20 Per Cent MOrtgaged
Seventy per cent of the farms of
Richland county are mortgaged to the
extent of $10,000,000 and the total as
sessed valuation of all the real estate
in the county is less than 100000 900
based on an inflated valuation for tax
purposes. The farms of Dane county
are mortgaged to the extent. of $19,-
100000 with an interest burden of
81 100000 annually. (These are figures
from the state tax commission.)
eff Gov. Blaine will come to Rich
land Center | will show him some
thing. He can stand on the First Ma
tional bank corner and count three of
the largest and best business blocks
in Richland Center vacant-a condi-
tion that never before existed. Then
I will take him to the top of the town
bluff and show him why-twenty-fi
abandoned farms.
Fight or Face SerfdOm
How do you like the idea of work
ing IA hours a day to support bunch
of female beauties travelling about in
specting beauty parlors?
Every tax bill passed in the last
five years has heaped another stone
on the farmers back.
"The $500 homestead exemption has
relieved the small villages of their
school tax and shifted the burden to
the surrounding farms.
1.-THE gasoline tax would be all right
if some other tax were abolished, but
instead others are added. The elimina-
ton of the personal property offset
will crack us directly or indirectly for
a few millions more.
"Now, gentlemen, it is up to you.
Shall we put up fight as our fore
fathers did against British oppression
or go home, lie down and wake up
to find ourselves poverty stricken. >

STATE SOLONS
IN SESSION
AT MADISON
Governor Refuses to Amend
Huber Law.-Other State
Capitol Notes.

MADISON-Gov. Blaine last week
vetoed the Hoethe bill amending the
Huber law so that sheriff or Judge
might use his discretion as to whether
prisoner in the county Jail should
be imprisoned or put to employment.
| The governor declares that many
jails of the state are not fit to house
prisoners and that they should be
placed at work outside. He claims also
that there was never any criticism of
| the Huber law until the prohibition
law became operative and infers that
the prohibition law needs changing
rather than the parole law.
Would Exempt Cars Under $500
| Atty. Gen. Ekern sponsors legisla-
ton to exempt all motor cars from
| taxation where the value is $500 or
/ less. AS most machines operated a
| year or more are in this class the ex-
emption would reach number of
people. Mr.. Ekern also advocated an
exemption of all fixtures fro mtaxa-
| tion and $500 from the inventory
stock
Personal Property Exemptions
| Senator w. l.. Smith, Neillsville,
conservation leader, appeared before
the committee and urged the complete
repeal of personal property taxation.
F! He said that the bill pending before
the committee provided a partial re-
peal, and that in his judgment all
personal property should be exempted.
The Titus bill, aimed to consolidate
various state departments, has been
killed by the Progressives on the
grounds that it is untimely and I'M
necessary Lieut.. Gov. Huber cast the
tie vote. Administration solons charge
the bill is a political measure. Sen.
Carey of Edgerton says there is no
duplication in state service not now
being achieved by the board of pub
licity affairs.
Various amendments were offered
to the bill before it was killed. The
amendment removed the department
of vocational education from the bills
provisions. The second took the dairy
and food commission, and the third the
real estate board from under the bill
Senator W. A. Titus, Fond du Lac
author of the bill, supported all
amendments.

cense will also get a drivers license.
Others can obtain a drivers license
for a fee of 25c The drivers license,
when obtained, will hold good for life
