THE ELECTION

The charter election occurred yes
day. The chief interest conferred on
for the mayoralty between
Senator VIM. f. Voss, the regular
Democratic nominee, and Edward
Rack, independent Democrat, Mr..
Voss being elected by the narrow
margin of eighty-three votes. Strength
sned by g. reg ular nomination and
backed up by the vigorous support Of
the three Democratic organs here and
the entire crowd of bosses, and then
the nominee of the party that last
fall had a majority of over 900, to
squeeze in by a paltry majority of
eighty-three. is IL virtual defeat and
shows the utter distracted and de-
moralizai condition of the Demo
cratic party of this city. The waning
influences OF the men in control OF the
Democracy here is very apparent.
and as a result Of their work they
gaze upon their party helpessly Ill
vided, bleeding and sore. With the
exception Of mayor there was no OPP
position to the balance of the Demo-
cratic city ticket.
There were some very close shaves
on ward officers, one for alderman in
the First ward and another for school
commissioner in the Third, in both
cases, however, the Democratic nomi-
nees being elected over their Repub-
lican competitors. We append the
returns of the election except from
the Seventh ward, where the only
figures we were able to procure up to
the time of going to press were on

Caramel Malt Coffee

During the present week the people
OF this city will be furnished SAMPLES
of Rahr's Caramel Malt Coffee. which
has been SO successfully introduced in
many cities of Wisconsin. The coffee.
as its name implies, is manufactured
from malt. During the process, which
is patented, the malt is caramelized
and product is obtained closely re-
sembling coffee in taste, but which re-
tains all the nourisking and health
giving qualities Of malt extract. The
use of malt coffee diminishes the iniur-
ious effects of coffeins and makes it
possible for all to enjoy delicious and
exhlIeratlng beverage. For nervouslv
inclined persons and children the in
fusion made from the pure caramel
malt coffee has no superior:
When the great harm that the free use
of coffee causes is considered, it must
be admitted that the manufacturers
of the caramel malt coffee deserve the
applause ofeverYone. They have dis
covered valuable thing for humanity
In short time every family in Water
town will be using it. The laborer will
drink 1t because it is cheap and good
and the brain worker because it exhil-
crates without weakening and under
mining the system.
Ifyou want to test the exhilerating
and life-giving qualities of pure malt
extract try Rahr's Caramel Malt Coffee
according to direction You will notice
its remarkably health-giving and bene-
fetal effects after using it only short
time, and will prefer it to the finest
Mocha or Java coffee. In Rahr's Car
amel Malt Coffee we have malt in its
purest, most compatible and assimile
form. We predict great and well de-
served success for the coffee.

NOTICE TO INVENTORS.

There was never time in the his
tory of our country when the demand
for inventions and improvements in
the arts and sciences generally was So
great as now. The conyeniences of
mankind in the factory and work
shop, the household, on the farm, and
in official life, require continual ac-
cesslons to the appurtenances and
implements of each in order to save
labor, time, and expense. The political
change in the administration of the
government does not affect the progress
of the American inventor, wi o being
on the alert and ready to perceive the
existing deficiencies, does not permit
the affairs of government to deter him
from quickly conceiving the remedy to
overcome existing discrepancies. Too
great care cannot be exercised in chOos
inga competent and skillfully attor-
ney to prepare and prosecute an ap-
plication for patent. Valuable interests
have been lost and destroyed in in
Vulnerable instances by the employ
ment of incompetent counsel, and
especially is this advice applicable to,
those who adopt the "No patent, no
paw" system. Inventors who entrust
their business to this class of attorneys
do SD at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength of the patent is never
considered in view of quick endeavor
to get an allowance and obtain the
fee tl.en due. THE PRESS CEAIMs

place of the Peoples party. Mrs.
Lease has kerfumuxed and gone
back to the republicans.
The moral of all this is that if
the democratic party was good
enough for Tom Jefferson and
Andrew Jackson and our fore
fathers and fore-mothers, it is
good enough for us latter day
saints.
But another lesson We also learn
from these elections is that a party
which can only flourish during
years of depression and bud and
blossom when times are hard, will
not bear much fruit at any time.
No political party can be a per-
manency unless it has some great
underlying principle good for all
kinds of weather, for storms and
sunshine for cyclones and balmy
breezes. The ship that does the
best sailing when skies are clear
and winds favor may also be trust
ed when Eolus RACES and waves
are rough.

HamptOn's Letter.

Greenville Democrat.
The letter of General Hampton
printed by the newspapers OF the
State last week, wherein he pro-
posed to organize Democratic clubs
in accordance with his own ideas
of Democracy. has evoked much
comment. With but few exceptions
his proposition has met with con-
demnation. Upon reading the
utterances of the press thereon, we
suspect the proposed organization
of Democratic clubs will be
abandoned by,Gen. Hampton. The
expressions have not been very
fattering to its author. This
modification should have been
averted. from this old man by his
advisers. There was no sense III

refusing to ship seed TO anybody

The association can control five

In common with thousands of
others, the Conservatives of this
County, as a rule, doubt the ex-

Gen. Hampton some think it loo

supremacy. But they are thinking
over the matter carefully.-Sumter

any doubt remains but that the
entire crew of fifteen were drowned.
