FATHER S DAY.
“Father's Day" has been Inaugur
ated in Spokane. Wash., by Rev. Dr.
William J. Hindley, pastor of a Con
gregational church. In founding it Dr.
Hindley said he wanted to give every
body "a chance to speak a few kind
words for the 'old man' who surely
.needs sympathy." The few kind words
were said last Sunday, and. perhaps,
the "old man" felt better for them.
When the movement spreads **”-ough
out the country, as the founder and
his followers believe it will, papa prob
ably will begin to chirk up and feel
that be is appreciated at something
approaching his own estimate of his
real worth. Mother already has her t
day. and Us observance, we hope,
brings joy to her dear old aoul, but j
father has been rather a legllgibb* ;
quantity In the household scheme. It j
is true be is permitted to provide the j
money to pay the bills, but whet dops
U rront a man to own a palatial home
ana supply the table witb tbe fat of
the land If he must adjourn to the cel
lar or the back steps to smoke his pipe
or cigar because tobacco smoke Is In
jurious to tbe lace curtains he did not
select but had to pay for? Nor does
it add to the joys of his outcast nl
eotinous vigil to listen to the strains
of "Everybody Works but Father," as
played and sung by the young hope
fuls amid the comfortable surround
ings from which he has been banished.
Surely father needs a little sympathy,
and perhaps a little more considera
tion.
Rome of the New Jersey farmers are
advocating a form of conservation
that is rather out of the ordinary. Deer
have been so well protected In the
state that the animals have multiplied
to a remarkable extent and have bet
come so fearless and commit so many
depredations in the fields that the
farmers regard them as nuisances. To,
molest a deer at this season means 1
severe punishment, but the sufferers
are moving to secure such action as
will save ntheir crops from destruc
tion. Vermont and some other north
ern localities report occasional dam-i
age to vegetation by deer, but It
sounds rather oddly to hear of such
things In a state which Is largely a
suburb of the metropolis.
The official figures showing Immigra
tion Into the United States'for the
calendar year 1910 Indicate that the*
movement Is once more at high tide.
The total arrivals for May were 169,-.
472, which has not been surpassed
since 1907, a record-bteaker. That
year 184.886 alleus came here In Mayi
Hut soon after there was a subsidence!
This year, however, the accessions
continue in Increasing volume. Th 4
total Immigration was 1,334.166; In 1
■I9OB, following the "panic,” It fell to 1
410,319; In 1909 it was 957,106; and'
this year, up to aud Including May,
It has been 549,4 93 with a good pros
pect of attaining and perhaps exceed
ing the 1907 tot;l for the entire
twelve months.
Numerous arrests tor smuggling
give evidence both that this particu
larly contemptible form of offense
against the national laws Is prevalent
the customs officials In New
York are thoroughly on the Job. Col
lector Loeb started In by making It
clear that he did not Intend to sub
ject passengers on incoming steamers
to unnecessary annoyance and Incon
venience, while at (he same time he
should exact compliance with the
treasury regulations. There can b
no good ground for complaint against
this system. The person detected In
smuggling may be set down as a will
ful offender and entitled to no sym
pathy when caught In attempts to
cheat the government.
Aviation Is golrg to he.v% Its mar
jlyrs like other great enterprises, the
(more as they are. in a way, fanatics,
jtoo; for no amount of danger and
factual accident will deter men from
[trying to conquer this elusive element
lor dim Its fatal fascinations The
of success which has attend
jed latter day effort will serve to mini
liulze effects of the danger still more.
Cholera spt.ads *n Kussla because
so many people do not seem to see
much difference living under the czar
and dying with the cholera At least
that appears to be the Interpretation
of the reports about the fatalistic wav !
they neglect to take the most ordinary
precautions.
An auto while traveling in New York
turned turtle and broke a surgeon's
leg. which may be put dowu as a gross
Infraction of professional courtesy.
Behold how blessed we are with the
abundance of the earth—green corn,
tomatoes, peaches, cantaloupe, cym
lings and ice cream soda!
What would {be vaudeville singer
•who had his upper lip treated by a
chiropodist do for a corn?
It may be that soon we will occa
sionally hear this: "Do you see that
man up there? Why he mortgaged his
house to buy that aeroplane."

EIGHTY ARE DEAD AND
MANY WOUNDED IN RACE WAR
Texas Negroes Have Desperate Forty
Eight Hour Battle With Troops
and Sheriff’s Posse.
Palestine. Tex.—At least sixty ne
groes and twenty white men are dead,
according to the latest estimates, fol
lowing a pitched battle between ne
gro farmers, in which at least 300
blacks took part and three companies
of state militia from Houston and Gal
veston and a detachment of state
rangers. The race riot between the
. negroes and whites raged continuous
ly for forty-eight hours.
Throughout the night the negroes
and whites exchanged shots. At dawn
the soldiers prepared to rush the no
gro stronghold.
Cautiously soldiers and citizens felt
their way through the woods for al
most a mile before a shot waß fired
Suddenly coming upon a group of in
trenched negroes the soldiers were
fired on and three hit. This was a
signal for a general assault. On four
sides shots rang out. The negroes
fired desperately, knowing that quar
ter would be denied any caught.
The surrender of the blacks ended
the battling. It is difficult, members
of the posses and officers of the troops
say, to estimate exactly the number
of negroes killed. Early today the
captured negroes were brought to
Palestine and a camp formed for them
on the outskirts of the village, where
they are guarded.
The feeling here Is very high, and
for a time It was feared that attempts
would be made to lynch the negroes,
but the presence of the soldiers and
sheriff’s deputies is believed sufficient
guarantee for their safety.
The problem of what to do with the
captured negroes who survived the
war of extermination is one that is
puzzling the authorities.
GRAND TRUNK STRIKE SPREAOS
Freight Yards May Next Be the Scene
of Trouble.
Chicago.—All freight yards, Chicago
included, along the line of the Grand
Trunk railroad will likely be the scenes
of further trouble of the strike on this

At a meeting in Chicago of the
local members of the Switchmen's
Union of America It was voted to sup
port the Brotherhood of Railway Train
men and to c-tll out every switchman
on the Grand Trunk.
A concerted movement on the part
of railroad men to aecure higher wages

Columbus, O. —Efforts of Governor
Harmon to bring about a settlement
of the Columbus street car strike
proved unavailing
When the governor told the union
ists that the company was willing to

and the wearing of union buttons was
waived, the union officials said they
had rejected such a proposal before
going out on strike and would con
tinue to reject It.
COTTON MILLS IN BIG MERGER.

SHOULD BE GIVEN
LARGER POWERS
insurance Commission Outlines
Desired Legislation.
LIKES. THE NEW YORK LAW
Mutual insurance Companies Are Or
dinarily Organized With a View to
Furnishing Insurance at the
Least Possible Cost.
Madison.—That the commissioner of
Wisconsin should he given power to
supervise, control, and take charge of
the liquidation of all delinquent In
surance corporations within the state.
In a manner similar to that provided
by tbe New York law, is a measure
recommended by Insurance Commis
sioner George E. Beedle, in his annual
report on local mutuals. Issued.
Similar provisions are in force In
other states, and their operation is
declared to have be* very successful
and satisfactory a 1 ,o the Interests
of the policy holders and stockhold
ers. The law relating to banks in this
state contains similar authority to the
commissioner of banking.
The temptation in the management
of mutual companies to eliminate as
many members as possible in order to
divide up a large mutual surplus,
which under the present law belongs
only to the members who at the time
have insurance policies in force, is
emphasized by the commissioner, who
urges legislation to remedy such a sit
uation.
‘ Mutual Insurance companies are or
dinarily organized with a view to fur
nishing insurance to the community
at the least possible cost. For this pur
pose members are willing to allow a
part of the savings and gain of the
busioess to remain with the company
to enable It to withstand excessive
losses. Almost every policy holder Is
willing to make this contribution pro
vided there be reasonable assurance
that It shall be maintained for that
purpose and not go to fatten tbe pock
ets of such as might secure the con
trol of the company only for the pur
pose of wrecking it and distributing
the accumulated assets among them
selves. This would be effectually pre
vented by the law which before re
ceived the favorable consideration of
the legislature and the enactment of
such a law will inevitably benefit not
only all mutual companies but sound
Insurance in general," says the re
port.
The report shows the following
number of mutual companies doing
business In Wisconsin: Mutual town
Insurance companies, 204; city and
village mutual companies, 69; mutual
church Insurance companies, 4; mu
tual hall Insurance companies, 15;
retail lumber dealers' mutuals, 2; mil
lers and manufacturers' mutuals, 1;
hardware dealers’ mutuals, 1; Jewel
ers’ mutuals, 1.
Labor la Opposed to County Option.
The Wisconsin State Federation of
Labor in the closing sessicn of its an
nual convention passed a resolution
denouncing the principle of county
option.
It wits argued that the plan would
permit arbitrary interference In lo
cal government and would be a men
ace to home rule.
Fred Brockhausen was re-elected
secretary and treasurer aud Frank J.
Weber, MU wau kee, was re-elected
state organizer.
The additions to the executive com
mittee are:
William Hamman and Walter S.
Fisher, Milwaukee; W. H. Sinale,
Wausau; Theodore Zick. Watertown,
and William Kauffman. Keuosha.
All legislative matters were re
ferred to the new executive commit
tee.
In the vote for the place of holding
the 1911 convention La Crosse was
the unanimous choice.
Finds Chickens With Tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis in chickens has been
found In five cases this year by the
state hygienic laboratory at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin. In no case,
however, has It been proven that peo
ple have contracted the disease
through eating such fowls.
"It is quite evident that the chick
ens get the disease by pecking about
in barnyards where there are cows or
people in feci, J with It." said Dr.
M. I>. Ravenel. director of the labora
tory, receutly. "We had a chicken
scut us not long ago from the neigh
borhood of Janesville. We found the
bird had tuberculosis, aud upon visit
ing the farm it had come from, dis
covered nearly every animal in the
entire dairy herd there badly infected.
"Few cases of the disease among
fowls have been reported hitherto,
only two or three having been known
in the United States until this year."

Vice-President E. A. Lagrandeur, Som
erset. William R. Brown, Waupaca,

present treasurer, elected to Mr.
Brown’s place. The present executive

lich, Alexander Archie, A. Maburg,
Amherst, and J. E. Johnson, Dallas,
was re-elected.
George P. Reidenbach, post office in
spector, Green Bay, In speaking of
“The Model Post Office," urged post
ma' ers to post their accounts and
take inventory of their stock of
stamps daily, in order to facilitate a
settlement with the post office depart
ment at Washington in case of rob
bery or fire. He also spoke of the
necessity of extreme care in preser
ving envelopes of registered letters
and packages in cases where the
envelopes or packages had been
robbed or tampered with.
"In justification of the quarterly
form of voucher for salaries of rural
mail, carriers,” he said, "I will say
that the new system not only lessens
the work of tbe state Inspectors and
the Milwaukee post office In checking
up the vouchers by two-thirds, but
also facilitates the work of the post
office department in Washington. In
ched 'ing up now there is only one
vouc’ jr to handle instead of three
mont ly vonnners as before.”
In ~c?k,n g before the Wisconsin
brat i of the National League o<
Posti asters of the third and fourth
class offices at the Republican house;
Congressman W. H. Stafford predicted:
that the postal savings bank hill, as
rectntly passed by congress, is des
tined to become one of the most pop
ular on the books.
The provisions requiring that 30
per cent, of the deposits In oanks to
be at the call of the board of trustees
for Investment in government bonds
and C 5 per cent, at the call of the pres
ident, Mr. Stafford deemed as especial
ly praiseworthy.
The address of welcome was deliv
ered by Mayor Emil Seidel, W. H.
Froehlich. Jackson, president of the
league, responding. Papers were read
by E. A. Lagrandeur, Somerset; Alex
ander Archie, Waterloo; Ole Erick
son, Grantsburg, and Ralph Bird, rep
resentative of the post office depart
ment at the convention.
Progress on New Capitol.
The main offices of the railroad
commission, were moved from the sec
ond floor of the old south wing of the
capital into rooms on the ground floor
of the new east wing. This is some
what of a change from the plan made
some time ago to make a temporary
home for the entire office and admin
istrative force of the commission In
the new Washington building on East
Washington avenue, Just off Pinckney
street.
It Is understood that the original
plan Is changed to the extent that
only the clerical, statistical and en
gineertng departments will go to the
quarters engaged while the commis
sioners themselves will be provided
quarters more easily accessible from
the other departments of state.
The executive offices, and those of
the state superintendent, the commis
sioner of banking, the adjutant gen
eral and the tax commissioner, are all
that now remain in the old south
wing.
Governor Davidson expects to oc
cupy the new executive offices in the
east wing by the first of the month.
The others in the south wing will
have to vacate soon for the workmen
are gradually working their way from
the center and soon will have razed
the old structure.

uadlr the joint supervision of the
state univeislty and the countv board,
Dean Rut-sell will take an active in
terest In all the preliminary work. IIU
expert knowledge and his long ex
perienee fit him best of all those in
terested to select the site best adapt
ed to the requirements of the school
and the final choice of a tile will b
left largely with him.

CRIPPEN AND MISS LENEVE
ARE PLACED UNDER ARREST
Alleged Wife Slayer, r.nd His Stenog
rapher Taken Into Custody Upon
Arrival at Quebec.
Montreal, Que. A real detective
story, the plot of which has never
yet been conceived by a Poe or
a Doyle, but which has been told in
the newspapers day by day, came to
its last chapter with the arrest of Dr.
Harvey H. Crippen and Miss Ethel
Leneve by the provincial police and
Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard, on a
charge of having killed Mrs. Crippen,
known on the stage as Belle Elmore,
in London.
It was simple performance, this ar
rest, and carried out with all the ab
sence of theatricals and a display of
calmness that was remarkable under
the circumstances. !n a word, it was
all that staid, stolid Scotland Yard
could desire.
Chief McCarthy of the Quebec pro
vincial police, assisted by Chief Denis
oi iLo Dominion police, put Dr. Crip
pen under arrest on the deck of the
Montrose at Father Point after he had
been identified by Inspector Dew as
he was waiting for a pilot. Two min
utes after. Ethel Leneve, the stenog
rapher, with the suspect, whom Crip
pen hati long been Infatuated with,
was put under arrest In her cabin,
still wearing the clothes of a boy.
Inspector Dew stood face to face
with the man he had let slip by him
in London and was certain that the
man disguised as Rev. John Robinson
was his quarry. Feeling that he had
now vindicated himself and feeling the
most real happiness In a year. In
spector Dew continued on his way to
Quebec with his prisoners. There they
will be arraigned before Judge Panet
Angers, the purpose being to deport
them to London. It is likely that In
spector Dew will board the Royal
George for the return trip with his
prisoners on Thursday.
Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard,
with Chief McCarthy and ex-Chief
Denis of the Canadian provincial po
lice, all three disguised as pilots, went
off to the steamship in a lifeboat
rowed by four sailors. Crippen was
smiling and promenading the deck
with Miss Leneve and Dr. Stuart, the
ship’s doctor. He asked the doctor
why so many pilots should come, to
which Doctor Stuart replied they were
probably returning to their homes,
being out of turn.
The supposed pilots walked along
until they passed where Crippen and
his paramour were with Doctor Stu
art. As Inspector Dew got a good
look at Crippen and Miss Leneve he
gave the preconcerted signal and the
constables made the arrest and
brought the couple down to their own
stateroom, where they are now con
fined with Inspector Dew.
CARLISLE ENDS LONG CAREER.
Former Secretary of Treasury Suc
cumbs to Heart Failure in 75th Year.
New York. —John G. Carlip'e, sec
retary of the treasury in President
Cleveland's cabinet, who had been
critically ill for the past two days,
died at his apartments in New York
Sunday night of heart failure, accom
panied by oedema of the lungs.
The family was at his bedside at
the end.
John Griffin Carlisle was born in
Campbell county., Kentucky, Septem
ber 7, 1835, and after a common school
