JUDGE WEBB.

The Milwaukee Record con-
tanned the following short editorial
about Judge Webb who resides in
this city in regards to his portrait
appearing in print. Here is what
they say:
Judge Chas. M. Webb, who
is the candidate of the Wisconsin
Bar association for associate JUS
tice of the supreme court, is one of
the few men in public or private
life who has a strongly-rooted OBJ
lection to seeing his portrait in
print. Numerous requests which
have reached him for portraits
from newspapers desiring to show
their readers what manner of man
he is, have been courteously re-
fused. With due respect to the
Judge, The Record will offer the
opinion that this is a mistake
There are great many voters
who never saw or even heard of
him before, and especially through
the use of such a fine portrait as
The Record would make of him,
would the publication Of a por-
trait have favorable result"
We are aware that the Judge
has always been sensitive in this
respect. His reason for it we
know not, unless tits, that he is SO
homely that he dislikes to see a
fac smile of himself in print.
His friends believe him fine look
ing man whose portrait, if pub
lished, would win every lady in
Wisconsin on his side, even Mrs.
Newman herself With the
women on his side his election
would be assured. We believe
with the Record" that his por-
trait ought to be printed.

In the choice of candidates for
associate justice of the supreme
court this section of the state will
naturally take to Judge Webb, of
Grand Rapids. He is the first
candidate for a position on the su-
preme bench from the northern
part of the state, and it is conceded
that this part Of the state is en-
titled to one member of the su-
preme court. Judge Webb is as
we'll qualified in ability and legal
learning as any of the judges in
the state. He is the nominee of
the bar Of the state as non-parti-
san candidate RfbHbH-
can.

While writing with all the scien tifc
knowledge Of great astronomer,
Camille Flammarion in his marvellous
story "OMEGA: The End of the World"
which begins in the April number of
The Cosmopolitan magazine, keeps the
reader at the highest point of excite
ment by his vivid description of the
alarm and despair excited by the ap-
proach Of comet whose collision with
the earth had been declared by astrono-
mers inevitable. The description be-
gins at time when the business of the
world has been suspended, and at a
great mass-meeting held in the Insti-
tute of France, we hear the discussion
of scientists as to- the possibility of q
second deluge, the drying up of all the
surface water of the globe, or the total
destruction of human life by cold, to-
gether with all the possible phases of
death PARALLEL by the history of the
moon. For scientific statement and
sensational effect this characteristic
production of French genius is unique,
and the reader who reads this marvel
lons story-and If he begins it he will
certainly finish twill have assimi-
lated without effort. a compact store of
scientific knowledge. In this way,
apart from its absorbing interest, this
remarkable piece of fiction will have a
distinct scientific value.

CORRESPONDENT,
The Local Paper.

The local paper stands to the general
public, as friend to all aspiring candi-
dates for position and is expected to
give puffs to each individual office seek
err. If a tradesman has wares to dis
pose Of and wishes the public to know
1t, he pays for an advertisement and
counts it as a good investment. If an
inventor wishes to announce to the
world an improved system or a new
creation, the press sends the news over
the country. If business man wants
points about commercial locality in
which his interests lie he seeks reliable
knowledge from the local paper. If a
politician desires to feel the pulse of the
people, or gain the peoples appro-
baton land votes the press is sought
as the surest way to success. All pub
lie measures pertaining to the public well
fare, all public and private enterprises,
all religious, educational, and moral re-
forms. All measures relating to law
and order and the upbuilding of citys
interests, the local paper is expected to
befriend and woe be to those that do
not.
If marriage bells ring out with glad
some melody the local paper must
catch the resounding echo and transfer
the notes to the columns of their paper.
If the dark shadow of death has
brought sorrow, and unavailing regrets
the local paper with its record of
bereavement is a messenger of SYM
pathy and comfort, if a child is born the
event is chronicled telling the glad news,
and those who take the paper and those
who borrow it, alike look in it's columns
to learn the news Of the town, news
from the sick ones, from the absent,
and Of the strangers in our midst News
of stocks, and bonds and prices. Of the
courts of justice and the marts of trade.
Of sociable, whist party, Ladies Aid
Society, Club or Band meetings. Is it
any wonder that the editor often falls
short of the demands of an exacting
public, often says word to much, or
word to little? Is it strange that he ex-
poets patronage and consideration
in the business department Of his paper
commensurate to it's cost.
The newspaper is as much business
enterprise as the grocery or the mill
and gives full value for all moneys re-
ceived, besides the gratuitous adve1tis-
ing that benefits both the recipient
and the giver. An editor likes to give
to the readers of his paper all that is of
interest in the current events of town
and county, asks cooperation in these
things, and is best pleased when he
pleases his patrons. The intelligent
liberal public appreciates this and is
just as generous, while the GROWERS
find in every issue mistakes galore and
faults enough to sink ship.

and the balance is muck land. On this
farm he keeps from twenty-five to forty
COWS, twelve to fifteen horses and colts
and from twenty-five TO fifty hogs.
Ills principle crops are hay, oats, pota.
toes and roots, and the butter from his
dairy, which is delivered twice a week
to customers in the city, is 4 No. l.
Just think of the perseverance and
good management of man beginning
eighteen years ago with hardly any
thing and no education, and now to
have SO many bread acres we'll titled
and producing the largest of crops, and
everything kept in the most perfect
order. And but few farmers are better
posted on farm matters than he is.
We found on his table, besides the
local papers, the Farmers Review,
Wisconsin Agriculturist, Wisconsin
Farmer, etc, showing that his time is
not all spent on the farm, but is used
to good advantage in the line of Agri-
cultural reading He employs four
men oIl Tue lllle, ana some OF tue InG
FIVE and six, and record is kept of
each dayss work in his journal so that
he can tell where and now each days
labor is expended He SAYS that his
farm is not quite all paid for, but he
finds no trouble in paying his interest
and taxes and raising money to buy
more land with if he chooses to do so.
1t seems that farming will pay men
who use good business methods and
have some push to them, even in these
hard times when we so often hear the
complaint that farming don't pay.
When man can go into the woods
with no capital to speak of, and in
eighteen years make farm like this,
it shows what can be done If one has
the business ability and the backbone
to do it.

Why are you sending your money out

their energy and money to assist in any

Do not try to pull down what YOU al

THE SUCCESSION OF RUMOR> AHolT NEW

righteousness than probability about them e.
pcciay I'm view of the fact that this city has already
as many theatres as it can possibly support. More
theatres have been built here within the last iVe
years than i'm the preceding fifteen years. some OF
NOM have been financial failures and have been

concerning the water supply of the city, IL having
been charged that the drinking water had been con-
taminated with cholera infection by a break In

engineer OF the city, admitted that such had been
the case but he declared that the reservoir filter
