All the-legis- lative, judicial and executive branches of the state government have cheerfully submitted to his beck and call. What has he accom- plished? What great reforms have brought blessings to the Wisconsin people? “Works speak louder than words. very state in this Union 1s an absolute sovereignty .within itself. If the reform measures he has so strenuously advocated are helpful, then surely the great state of Wis: consin would show results, The’ facts are-that no benefits whatever are visible to the naked eye, and certainly the farmers of Wisconsin are no better off than the farmers’ in neighbor states. “The Wisconsin state government 1 a very pronounced bureau- cn; th an annoying multiplica- tion of conflicting and overlapping bureaus.

All this has caused a tremendous increase in taxes. From 1900 to 1920, state taxes increased 432 per ent.

INTERESTING CAREER AT 102 CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELECTION ON ECONOMIC TICKET FOR Councilman From Third Ward ~ “ECONOMIC BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION” General Election November 4 LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. 3. Cornelius Cole, former United States senator, 102 years and two months of age, died at his residence here today, Cornelius Coie was a survivor of the most striking and picturesque period in the histery of California— the era of the placer miner, the Vig: flantes, the Pony Express and the transcontinental railway builders; of momentous political and social con- troversies, startling crimes and sum- mary punishments. Mr. Cole, who celebrated thé 100th anniversary of his birth September 17, 1922, arrived in California when he was 27 years of age and became a member of the first gold-seeking party to reach the Sacramento val- ley overland from the east in the rush of 1849. Every one of those hardy pioneers who seurvived the perils of the trail and trooped into the golden west in the stirring days of '49 had just one object in view— the discovery of pay dirt—and Cor- nelius Cole was no exception. But as timé wore on and the cease- less hunt for gold came to be re- garded in the light of a permanent institution, thers were some who called up memories of the comfort- able civilization that had been left behind in the distant east, and with these memories came a desire for leaders. Among the ‘latter Cornelius. Cole was an exception. He continued to mine for gold, as did everyone else, but’ he also found time to serve the new county of Sacramento in the capacity of dis- trict attorney at a moment when the legally constituted authorities were taking from the Vigilantes the reins of law and order, This guided: his steps along other political paths, and he became the real leader in the fight to keep California on the Ust of free states. He took a prom- inent part in organizing the Repub: ican party of the golden state, and F. Pelton Political Advertisement. . tional committee as the first Call, fornia representative. As an indication of the rdnge of his political career‘and that of his wife, who shared his early expert- ences, it is sufficient’ to note that he was chosen a delegate to the convention which nominated . Fre- mont for president, and that Mrs. Cole was a member of the deléga- tion to the convention that nomi- nated’ Charles E. Hughes for the same office more than half a cen- tury later. During, the Civil war Mr. Cole- occupied a seat in the house of ‘representatives, ‘and in 1866 wa? elected to the United States senate from, California, serving until 1873. Neary 50 years after Senator Cole had closed his desk in the national capital and returned ‘to the state of his adoption, he appeared once again in Washington and took hig old place in the legislative chambers, there to receive the tribute of a new zeneration that was guiding the af- fairs of the nation. He was a cen- tenarian then—or within a few months of the 100 years mark—and as he stood in the senate to speak ne saw none who had been there in his day. Despite his advanced years, Mr. Cole ‘insisted upon making the trip east in the early summer of 1922 to recelve the degree of doctor of laws from Wesleyan college, his alma mater, 75 ‘years after his gradua- | ton. He also ted: Hobart co'lege, which he had attended in his youth. The tour included a visit. to New York, which the pioneer had not seen for more than 40 years. Hale and hearty as a man of half his years, and without a wrinkle on his face, the aged yisitor spent an active week in the métropolis after meeting the heavy demands made upon him in Washington, where he had been welcomed by President Harding and many other high officials of the gov- etnment, as well as ‘the house ‘and renate. ‘ Mr. Cole was born at Lodi, N. Y. September 17, 1822. Completing hi: academic work, ‘he studied law in the office of William H. Seward, who later ‘became secretary of state ander Linco:n. “In 1849’ he struck out for the far. west, and with three companions. “panned” gold with varying success until in famed Ore- gon Gulch they struck a rich pocket, -ne day’s work on which netted them $1,849. They were prompted to sell the claim for a song, however, when a mining camp rumor drifted in tell- ing of better pickings elsewhere, but all'lived to see the Oregon Gulch subsequently produce millions of dol- lars worth of coarse gold. Years after this venture, Mr. Cole was one of @ group of men who met in the law office of Collis P. Hunt- ington and Mark Hopkins in Sacra- mento to organize the Central Pa- cific Raflroad company. Later, as a member of congress, he brought about the, enactment of laws that made the building of the transcon- tnnental railway possible, ‘When he was elected to the senate. however, he actively opposed a bi granting Goat Island in San Fran- cisco bay to the Central Pacific as a terminal site, and thereby, he felt, incurred the enmity of his former friends and associates. To their oppo- sition and that of the so-called Whis- key Ring and national banking in- teresta, which he had antagonized, he attributed his defeat for re-elec- tion. Mr. Cole was married in 1853 to Miss Oliver Colegrove, who shared her husband's friendship for Abra- day through as though he hac been a boy again, Officers Probe - Recent Rioting Over Klan Issue NILES, Ohio; Nov. 3.—With peace and order restored here, military, county and city - officials today turned thelr attention to fixing the responsibility for Saturday’s rioting between the Ku Klux Klan and the anti-Klansmen which occurred while Klansmen were preparing to parade. ‘The list of known wounded as the result of skirmishes remained at thirteen, Only a comparatively few national guardsmen remained on duty. Most of these, Major General Benson W. Hough, in charge of the city, pro- claimed under qualified martial law by Governor Dorfahey after rioting began, said would be home in time to cast their ballots in tomorrow's election. Investigation into the rioting was started by military authorities: yes. terday. Twenty arrests were made ‘yesterday, most of them on charges of intoxication.

LOUIS, Nov. 3.—Hans Mackel one of the most prominent German language editors of the country, and president of the corporation pub- lishing, the West Liche Post, was found dead in the kitchen of his home late last night by his wife as she returned from a theater. Ac- cording to the police report, his head was resting on an open jet of the gas range. A note stating “I cannot stand the strain any longer,” was found on the kitchen table, police reported.
