the period is startling, and the time
has come when the rank and file Of
Wisconsin voters should take an in
terest in seeing to it that some san
ity is injected into affairs at Madi-
son.
That there is a protest throughout
the state there is no question. 1t
found expression in the conference
held in Oshkosh on March 2, and if
there was any dominant note at that
conference it was the protest there
voiced against the primary system
which permits candidates for office
to select themselves, and after they
are nominated, write their own plat
forms. In the final analysis this
condition is responsible for many of
the ills in taxes that the people of the
state are suffering from. A political
machine has been built up that has
perpetuated itself in office for al
most a quarter of a century with
only slight intervals of relief. Thru
the present primary system the peo-
pie virtually lost, not the right, but
the act of free assemblage. They
were told that it was all wrong for
a caucus to get together and pick
delegates to a convention, which af-
forwards picked candidates, but
they are learning that the present
system, which permits the candidate
to pick himself, is bearing fruit far
more bitter than ever came from the
old system.
The outcome Of the statewide con-
ference held at Oshkosh was the cleo
ton of statewide Executive Com
mittee, two from each CONGRESS sional
District. This Executive Committee
met on May /, and transacted the
business authorized by the Confer
cnce, among other things, authoriz-
ing uniform county constitution
under which delegates to the State
Convention in 1926 can be selected.
The conference took a determined
stand that the gathering was not in
the interests of any candidate, clique.
group, or faction. 1t went on record
that the thing to be done was to call
statewide representative conven-
tion which should select its own cam
didates and write its own platform.
This the one dominant necessary
note in the entire situation as it
stacks up today. We have at Madi-
son coterie of politicians who have
rotated in office for a number of
years and who are now engaged, to
a considerable extent, in investigat-
ing each other. 1t is time that the
people did their own investigating
and the way to do it is via this State
Convention that it is proposed to
hold ninety days prior to the Pri-
mary in 1926.

TOO MUCH reform

Wisconsin voters were promised
twenty years ago that if the rail
roads could be properly taxed, the
revenue derived would be such that
taxes on real and personal property
would be materially reduced. His
tory has not borne out the truth of
the prophesy.
The taxes on Wisconsin railroads
have increased from $1,547,141 in
1900, to $7,400,925 in 1924 and the
taxes on real and personal property
have increased from SIG, 766,861 in
1900 to 500, 120, 1902 in 1924, and the
question now arises, why is there
this tremendous increase in the face
OF promised reduction and even in
view of the fact that all costs have
increased This question is very per-
tinent because no cost has increased
IN Wisconsin like taxes. The an
swer is so simple that any child,
willing to give little study to the
situation, will readily arrive at it.
That answer is SUPER GOVERN
MENT.
To much interference along every
line with private affairs. Too many
reforms of every name and nature;
too many boards, bureaus, commits
sions, regulators and inspectors and
a Legislature not responsive to the
will of the people. In 1900 the total
General Fund disbursements were
$2,635,192 and in 1924 they were
S21 ,872 ,465, an increase of over
1900, while the population increased
only 1870. In 1900 every man, wo-
man and child in Wisconsin was gov
erned, protected and legislated for
at cost of $1.27 each for state gov
ernment, and in 1924 this cost had
jumped to 1919. That these state
boards and commissions have mater
tally contributed to the increased cost
of government is shown by the fol-
lowing samples:
Cost in Cost in
1900 1924
Tax Commission s17,O2S $S59,955
Railroad Com
mission 7,o47 2O8,8e5
Conservation Com
mission 72,120 349,052
Board of Health 10,016 245,906
1t is not the specific purpose of
this article to criticise all of the
boards and commissions at Madison,
nor specifically the ones herein men
toned, but simply to point out few
figures and let the taxpayer draw his
own conclusions.
The Supreme Court of the state in
1900 cost 500, 1913, and in 1924 it
only cost $85,95O.44. In other words,
the advance in the running cost of
this necessary branch of the govern
ment kept pace with he advance in
the cost of other things, but when it
is compared with almost any of the
other bureaus, boards and commits
sions, those activities with innumer-
able employees on their staff, the
difference in the increased cost over
