denomination Of Hon. Geo. d. Nc
Dill, of Osceola for State Repre-

winter and made one of the best of
records for himself He is bright,
smart and able-in fact superior
to most men who seek legislative
positions. And on all questions of
local interest he can always be
relied upon. Superior can count
upon him as her good friend at all
times. We can say this from per-
sonal experience and acquaintance
with him last winter. The people
of the Lake Superior counties owe
il TO him TO give him their votes at
the coming election.

Democratic Convention and other
things.


Again the Democracy of Wis
consin met in convention, made
their platform, nominated their
ticket and now await the result,
which in all political probability
will be the same as usual. Wiscon-
sin has some of the worst old
dyed in hide (wool don't COUNT
democrats, who are so prejudiced 4,
so old togyish that they forget the
times are changing that old issues
are long ago dead. And until such
liberal minded men as Col. Villas,
Editor Paymer, E. E. Chapin, Geo
Bashford and others are allowed
voice in the make up of ticket, the
democratic party in Wisconsin will
suffer defeat.
The conservative and liberal
element Of the party strongly ad-
vocated ticket for the people !;
one free from hide bound party
contraction and political bigotry.
But such old ante -diluvian, moss
backed, rock-ribbed, corrugated,
cold-chilled party mummles as many
OF the leadars are, opposed any new
movements. There never was q
better timo for the party to expand
and amalgamate with progressive
men Of the State, who belong to
both political faiths, yet are dis
satisfied with the machine manIp-
ulations of each. The following
is the ticket: Governor, n. D.
Fratt, of Racine Lieut.. Governor,
w. A. Anderson, Of Lacrosse !;
Secretary of State, Michael John
son, of Dane County; State Trea-
surer, w. Ii. Jacobs, Of Milwaukee;
Atty.-General, Nj. J. Briggs, Of
Iowa County; Railroad Commits
sioner, Ambrose Hoffman, of Chip
pewa Falls; Insurance Commits
sioncr, Louis Kemper; Supt. Pub.
Instruction, Albert Graham.
