Our former townsman, Fred Bach
enroth, of Marinette, is the Republican
for clerk of the court of Mar
inette county. The Marinette North
Star speaks of his candidacy as follows:
Fred Baebenroth is one of Mari
nette's staunch business men, and
man of intelligence and education. He
came here about six years ago, first es-
tablishing a book-bindery, but soon
gave up this business and opened
book and stationery store on Hall ave-
nue., in which business he has since
continued and prospered. Mr. Bach
enroth is a German Lutheran and an
upholder of the little
school house,"
Chairman Ed. Wall, of the Demo
cratic state central committee has made
a bet with Ed. Loew, of Milwaukee, for
81 900, that Hoard's plurality in the
state would not be 10000. This would
go to show how much confidence the
chairman has in the sue
cess of Peck, but at the same time is a
surrender that was not looked for in
the quarter where it originated The
Democrats are now virtually deserted
