Dairy Commissioner, Hon. 11. C.
Adams, says that the maufacture of
rilled cheese has been entirely sup
pressed in this state.
Suits have been liegun at Superior
to enjoin the sale of lands for the
taxes of last year on the grounds of
inequality in the tax levy and of illegal
appropriations, speci tidally the
normal school tax of $12,000 and the
one for tlx- Douglas county window
at the World’s fair.
I n one of his speeches Governor Mc-
Kinley said: "If we do our work at
home our labor at home will be em
ployed and the wages paid at home
will be spent at home. This is the
philosophy of protection, and it
cannot be abandoned) amended or
abated.” And nearly every patriotic
writer and speaker in the country has
said the same thing. It is a simple
statement of an incontrovertible
truth.
Governor William McKinley said in
one of his addresses that President
Harrison paid off S296.6tM*,(MM) of the
public debt and turned over to Mr.
Cleveland’s administration $124,000,-
iHMsurplus. There wasnot a moment
from tbe inauguration ot Mr. Harri
son to the second inauguration of Mr.
Cleveland in which we did not collect
for every year sufficient revenues to
pay every demand and obligation of
the Government.

cabinet officer. Many Grand Army
posts will participate. Gen. Rusk
died Nov. 21. 1893. The shaft of the
monument is 26 feet—total 33 feet.
The surviving members of the Harri
son cabinet are expected to lie present.
Dunn County News.
Ona hearing of the Income Tax
case before the United States
Supreme Court that tribunal on Mon
day last rendered its final decision
holding the act unconstitutional in
toto. Four of the Judges (JjaßN>l
from the descision of the Court, ti\
uniting in the opinion—a ban
majority. The decision is to the
effect that the law conflicts with the
clause of the constitution which says
that, “No capitation, or other
direct tax shall be laid, unless
in proportion to the census enumera
tion.” This will result in adding
some thirty million dollars to the
deficit in the Treasury for the current
year, and is another monument to the
stupidity of the administration.
The Hudson Star and Times
reprints from the Milwaukee Sentinel
the stale old story that the “de
monitization act” of 1873 was fully
discussed liefore its passjige and that
the debate covers some 150 pages of
tiie Congressional Record. We are
not defending free coinage but we
fail to see where anything is gained
for an otherwise good cause by mis
representation. it is true that the
act of 1873 was debated for a long
time in b«>tli Houses of Congress, but
the demonetization clause was insert
ed when that debate was about closed
and was no< the subject of long discus
sion. Tbe act of 1873, so much
discussed is entitled, “An act revising
and amending the laws relative to the
Mint, assay officers, and coinage of
the United States” and the de
monetization of silver is a very small
part of it. Better tell the facts,
Brethren, or you lay yourselves open
to the charge you yourselves make
against the author of “Coin.”
It has taken “Boss" Keyes of
Madison thirty-four years to find out
that he was a soldier during the late
war. That fact seems to have dawn
ed upon him lately and he applied a
few weeks ago to be made a member
of the G. A. R. Post at Madison, but
was rejected. He bases his claim to
admission upon the fact that at the
beginning of the war he happened to
be in Washington, and we would
naturally suspect from what we know
of his record of those days, for the
purpose of importuning President
Lincoln for an office for himself and
others,—and the Capital being in
danger a home-guard was organized
in which he was enrolled. These
men never crossed tbe Potomac,
never intended to, and were no more
enlisted in the army than were the
men in Prescott whoatthe time of the
Sioux outbreak in Minnesota organiz
ed into a company for home protec
tion. The Madison G. A.K. Post did
right in rejecting the ex-boss.
The State ought to, and does, deal
liberally with the State University.
It is an institution in which we may
as citizens feel a just pride. The last
legislature made liberal, an.’ we think
just appropriations for it. But it
ought to be open to all young people
of l he State alas low a cost as possible
Only in that manner can it maintain
its claim to being a "popular” institu
tion. We regret that the Board of
Regents should have found it neces
sary t<» increase the tuition as w
d >ne at tne of its late meetings.
There are many young men and
women in the University supporting
themselves by their own efforts.
On these the tuition charged is a
burden, while the sons and daughters
of wealthy parents will feel no addi
tional burden by reason of the in
crease. The University will cease to
lie a “popular” place of learning when
we exclude from it by t e increase in
expense the young yoe -<nry of the
State. The Board shorn iuy all means
at the earliest opportunity retrace its
steps. The old tuition was high
enough.
Senator Sawyer says he has not fully
determined as" to whether he will be a
candidate before the next legislature
f,,r United States Senator to succeed
Senator Vilas. He says if he con
cludes to go into the tight he will
make it lively for the other fellows.
Undoubtedly. He laid the founda
tion for his peculiar method of
campaigning last winter by killing
the "Corrupt Practices Act,” which
was intended to prevent and punish
the use of money in elections.
Sawyer will be, if he lives, seventy
nine years old next September. He
says, "Just at present I am feeling
very-Mell; better than 1 have for
several years past.” This sounds a
little as if he were in his dotage, and
reminds us of the old bishop in Gil
Blas, bv whom the latter was employ
ed as secretary on the express condi
tion that when he noticed any signs
of senility in the old gentleman, he
would frankly inform him so that he
might withdraw from his activities
without having his infirmities become
the subject of comment. True to the
terms of his contract on one Sunday
afternoon Gil Blas timidly informed
the bishop that he had in that day’s
sermon noticed decided evidences of
the decline natural to old age and ad
vised retirement. In furious rage
the old man broke out. *T have been
most egregiously deceived in your
narrow understanding. You are too
raw to make proper distinctions.
Know that I never composed a better
homily than that which you disap
prove; for my genius, thank Heaven,
hath as vet lost nothing of its vigour.
Those sycophants who have on all
occasfbns palavered over Sawyer better
not call the old man's attention to
his age. or he may cut them off from
his private peusiuu roll.
RIVER Fa~LS, WISCONSIN. THURSDAY. MAY 23. 1895.
MODERN WOODMEN PICNIC.
A Gala Day at Madison, Wis., on
June 6—Twenty-live Thousand
People Expected.
Tiie citizens of Madison, Wisconsin,

interest, an exhibition by the local
fire department, exhibition drill by
tiujguardsmen, tumbling and turning

world, that of the Wisconsin State
University. The day will be crowded

crew.

inter-collegiate league and other at
tractions.
The week will be distinctly Wood
men’s gala week, with the sessions of
the head camp to add to the imjx»rt
ance of the four days in the Badger
capital.
Every arrangement lias been made
to make the visitors welcome. The

the guests, and Governor Upham is
expected to join with the mayor of
the city in making the visitors feel at
home

The Wisconsin G. A. R.
The forthcoming report of the De
partment of Wisconsin will show a
very favorable condition of rhe order
of the Grand Army of the Republic in
this state. During the year rive new
posts have been mustered in, and all

beginning of the year have lieen mus
tered in. There have lieen 214 deaths
out of a total membership of 12,411.
Five hundred and twenty-six recruits
have mustered or joined by transfer

ing. Commander Watrous and Ad
jutant-General Talmadge have travel
ed over 13,000 miles and attended 48
campfiresand reunions in the interest
of the order during the year.
The administration o' the affairs of
the Department the past year has
been exceptionally successful. No
men in the state has the welfare of the

mander Watrous. With him it is a
work of love and be lias lieen most
ably seconded by Adjutant-General

Light.
When tbe world was young, man
was only a child, with a child's
thoughts. Probably the first man, at
the close of the first day. was frighten
ed when darkness fell, and wondered
whether the light would ever come
again. And since, he has, like a
child, lieen continually learning
something about light. Atone time
he supposed the eye was the source of
light, tiecause he saw nothing unless
his eyes were open. The great
pliilosopher. Newton, propounded the
corpuscular theor}, that light is an
imponderable substance, whose colors
depend on the velocity of transmission.
Reflection he compared to the re
bounding of an elastic body, while
refraction was due to interstices in
transparent bodies, which allowed the
particles of light to pass through.
This idea was accepted for many years
but has now been practically displaced
by Iluygen’s undulatory theory, that
light is propagated by the vibrations
of the imponderable ether. On this
theory the transmission of light is
like that of sound, and a corollary of
it is tha’ there are lights of different
colors, the variety of hue not being
caused by varying velocities. Three
peculiarities of light are its universal
diffusion, its rapidity of motion, and
its usefulness. The works of man
never equal those of Nature, but in
tliese three respects the Burlington
Route resembles light. An examina
tion of the man shows its diffusion
over the West; the use of its tickets
will convince if tbe speed of its trains:
an acquaintance with the hundreds of
prosperous towns and cities on its
lines demonstrate its usefulness.
