number of saloons to the minimum,
but in the exertion Of a moral inhu-
ence. The press says all the saloon
keepers have discovered that good
reputation has a money value and
they will zealously guard that re-
putation during the coming year,
and that the wholesome and restrain
ing influence Of the law will be even
more marked this year than it was
last The sight Of 1903 saloon
keepers obeying the laws and keep
ing orderly places, instead of nearly
5000 lawless saloon keepers doing
what they please and all within two
years of the laws operation-ought
to be an interesting and profitable
spectacle for pronibitionists.-/anes-

Monona Lake Assembly.

This assembly closed its exercises
last week; the program consisted of
the most distinguished talent of any
for the occasion in past years. The
weather during the greater portion
of the time was all that could be de-
sired. There was unpleasantness
created by some of the speakers;
they were charged with travelling
outside Of the proper limits of the
subjects assigned them. 1t is evil
dent there is growing sensitiveness
in matters of this kind, and public
speakers to avoid giving offence will
have to observe greater caution than
years ago. There are some topics
which have long been considered so
innocent and in place in all moral
assemblies, that no danger was in
Cured in alluding to them But
hardly SO now. For example, the
word temperance, once SO familiar in
religious gatherings, might be men
toned bnt any words as to how the
evil of intemperance could be arrest
ed might provoke angry discussion.
The subject of temperance has be-
come considerably waspish and needs
to be handled with care. There are
other matters of public interest, es-
pecially educational, in the discus
sion of which sensitiveness appears.

CANADIANS are very much
wrought up because the United
States doesn't intend releasing the
sealing vessel, Black Diamond, seiz-
ed in Behring sea. They talk re-
taliation and a lot of wild things,
and have called in the aid of the
mother government, but nothing of
this sort worries Uncle Sam. He
just crosses his legs and whites his
stick and smiles slightly. 1t means
that he knows what he is doing and
that he doesn't intend backing down
in this matter and that England can
buster if she wants to but it won t
do any good Canada must observe
our regulations or lose her ships

GOVERNOR FORAKER, of Ohio, is a
candidate for reelection. He has
written letter to the Mayor of Gin
cinnati, advising him to tolerate no
defiance of law by the saloon keep
ers. This is good advice. No pub
lie officer is fit to hold his position
who will countenance defiance to the
laws. mo man." says Gov. Fora
ker, "is worthy to enjoy our free in
stitutions who rebels against duly
enacted statute, and dehes the au-
thority entrusted with it's enforce
ment." Gov. Foraker should be re-
elected bv the people of Ohio by an
overwhelming majority. A little
more obedience to law might we'll
be observed in some places in Wis
consin. Where the duty of a public
officer is made plain, requiring him
to enforce law, and yet he neglects
to do it, the difference is only a small
remove from him who openly defies
the law.

MAJOR Davis, of the U. S. Engin-
GERS, has practical common sense
combined with his ability as an en-
gineer. His estimates of $4,000
for this and Kenosha harbor proves
that, inasmuch as with this amount
of money expended, something
substantial can be accomplished.
AS it has been, the few thousands
that have heretofore been appropri-
ated, did no particular good In
his intelligent efforts to place these
harbors in good condition, he has
the hearty support of Congressman
Caswell, who is doing all that he
can for them, a fact our people
should not forget.-Ractne Times.

Mormons in Walworth County.

1t is learned from the Milwaukee
Sentinel that the Mormons are at
tempting to revive their long ago and
supposed extinct church in Walworth
county. The only Mormon church
building in Wisconsin, says the Sen
hnel'S correspondent, is located soil
tary and alone in what is now a
large corn field, about seven miles
south of Elkhorn, and in sight of
Geneva Lake. The church is paint
ed white, has a bell or once had, and
is held in much generation by the
few scattered Mormons. 1t is not
far from forty years ago when the
Mormons founded city about two
miles west of Burlington, in the
county of Walworth. The name of
Voree was given the projected city.
1t is quite distinctly recollected how
the contemplated city appeared some
less than forty years ago. 1t con-
sisted of about half dozen houses,
most of them cheap structures; there
was a one-half completed stone
building, which was never finished,
but allowed to fall into ruin. All
the buildings then in the place have
long since disappeared. In passing
through Voree at the period referred
to, inquiry was made about the mys-
ferrous metal plates found, which
had been the cause of considerable
remark in the newspapers. It was
alleged that in digging up an oak
tree at Voree of considerable size, a
metal plate was found, on which was
engraved words of unknown signif-
cation. 1t being made known to the
Mormon prophet. James J. Strang,
that he was wished for to answer an
inquiry, he came and taking from
his pocket what appeared to be a
plate of brass about three by four
inches square, read few short SEN
fences. The balance he said he
could notread, for it had not yet
been interpreted. What he read
was prophetic, but not clearly intelli-
gible.
1t was generally believed that
with the abandonment of Voree
where the Mormons insisted "a
stake in Zion had been SET" these
people mostly left Walworth county.
But it is stated that quite recently
Mormon meetings have been held in
Elkhorn and other parts of the
county. The prophet Strang lee
tured in building on Main street
in this place in 1914. He refrained
from speaking of the Objectionable
features of Mormonism. There are
contradictory statements as to when
and where his life ended.

The State Treasury.

A few weeks ago our esteemed
neighbor The Umon joined in the
howl that was. going up from the
Democratic press throughout the
State, proclaiming that the reckless
extravaganza of the last legislature
had bankrupted the State Treasury.
They stated that by August 1st.,
there would not be money enough
in the general fund to pay the cur
rent expenses. Dismal forebodings
of a state Tax for general expenses
next year have filled the minds of
our democratic contemporaries and
they have done their best to convin-
&C the people that the republican
administration of Wisconsin has
been extravagant. Now what are
the facts The facts are what we
want and not theories or guess. work.
Below we give the official state
ment of the condition of the state
treasury as handed to us by Secre-
tary of State Timme. 1t refutesl
completely and finally the miserable
democratic gable. This state has
not levied a state tax for the past
seven or eight years and the people
of Wisconsin have put their seal Of
approval upon the republican adj
mlnlstration, entrustlng to it the
affairs of the state by larger MAORI, |
ties than ever. The Union and itsI
fellow kiCkers cannot expect this
republican administration to reverse |
the policy it has pursued these
many years just to give color to
their pessimistic bowls. The PEG.
pie of Wisconsin admire good house
keeping and they propose to retain
their present republican servants
long time yet if they continue theT
good work. Secretary Timme sta
ted to US that ne estimated that
when this present fiscal year is tl1- |
ished there will be over two hTn-
dred thousand dollars to the credit |
of the general fund to apply on the
expenses of the ensuing year. Here
is the statement of the condition of |
the State Treasury August 1st.

The work of the high license

number of wholesale dealers has

that city says the slaughter among
the wholesale applicants in proper

the attempt of some to sell at retail
