Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1892-11-10

| Messrs. J. A. Gaynor and B. R.
Gogglns discussed the political issues of
the campaign at the opera house Mon
weather the audience was not as large
as it would otherwise have been.
Mr.. Geo. H. Smith, general manager
of the Sherry, Cameron & Co.'S plant at
Sherry, drove to the county seat and
back on Wednesday distance of about
10 miles. 4 few years ago one could
only accomplish this trip in the winter
| time.
Are you insured?
| If not, why not?
Delays are dangerous,
Secure Geo. n. Wood agency policy
at once.
! In our next issue we will publish a
tabular statement giving the complete
vote of the county For this issue we
cannot give an accurate statement as to
the exact figures. They are large
enough SO there is no doubt as
to the election of all the Democratic
candidates.
It is ridiculous how some men take to
heart and hold emnity OH matters that
take place during election. We never
allow ourself to lay up anything against
another that is said in campaign time.
We must disagree in. these matters as
long as there is two parties.
The cuts of the democratic candidates
as they appeared in the Marshfeld
week were no credit to the individuals
themselves. The men themselves are
pretty good looking, but the cuts made
them look like set of rogues.
Mr.. Dudley Wilcox, of Fall River,
Columbia county, Wis, but formerly a
resident of the town of Rudolph, this
county, stopped off here Tuesday to
visit friends, while on his way north on
deer hunt. He is one of a party of
five who will enjoy a two weeks hunt
in the northern part of the state.
Mrs. Quimby received from the J. d.
Larkin Soap Co., Chautauquan desk
Tuesday. 1t is thing of beauty useful,
as we'll as ornamental. A free gift to
the patrons of the above Co. Mrs.
Quimby will be pleased to give infor-
nation and show the desk at Mr.. Wood
worths to any desiring to avail them
selves of the liberal offer the company
gives.
Thursday, Nov oath, is ''Thanksgiv-
ing" The Twin City Band propose to
give ball at the Opera House to cele
brate the event. Those who are fortu
nate enough to participate in the
festivities will have right good time,
as the band never fails to give full
measure, to all who seek their halls of
pleasure.
Mrs. Churm has been detained in
England on account of the sickness of
her little daughter who has scarlet
fever. If the remaining three children
should also become victims to the fever
it would detain her indefinitely. Her
many friends here, anxiously await
good news from over the sea from their
pastors wife and little ones.
Mr.. W. E. Edwards, attested his
loyalty to the Republican party by
coming from Minneapolis to vote on
Tuesday last. Talk is cheap, and serves
as "dress parade" in showing party's
popularity, but when men sacrifice time,
money, and business interests, it serves
as bone and sinew, and vital power that
underlie Republicanism. Mr.. Edwards
will remain in the city several days.
Mr.. J. D. Witter has given substantial
evidence of his appreciation of the
electric light system in this city, by
having his house supplied with
light from attic to cellar, having also his
barn lighted. Quite an interest has
been created and several have offered
to subscribe literally toward having
High street lighted. 1t is to be hoped
each resident of the street will be will
ing to assume their fair share in a
scheme SO manifestly for the good Of all.
The many friends of Woman Suffrage
here, believing in a greater or less de-
gree in the voting privileges of women,
will be pleased to hear that Mrs. M. J.
Pomeroy, an old-time resident here,
has distinguished herself by systematic
and effective work in Minneapolis in
the interest of woman member of the
several hundred extra votes were cast
through her instrumentality.
TO THE PIJRIIC.
