Taking advantage of the fine weather
which we had last Friday, the mem
bers of the Peerless Comedy company
of Sacred Heart college took a sleigh
ride to Oconomowoc. They left the
college at 9 A. NJ. and the zeal with
which they sang and blew their tin
trumpets gave evidence Of their mirth-
full feelings. They arrived at Ocono-
mowoc at noon and after partaking of
the sumptuous dinner which was pre-
pared for them, spent the remainder
of the day taking in the sights Of that
beautiful little city.
They returned to Watertown at P.
NJ and startled the citizens by their
"comedy cry" After having supper
at Hawkins restaurant they repaired
to tie college, all feeling that they had
spent a most joyful day and one that
will live in their memories during the
remainder of their college days. x

parture to the other world of another

those who were her neighbOrs and
friends. The body has been brought

ternoon. Oak Hill cemetery will be

Successors to Hall 81 Skim
Why Mr.. Dodge Shuts Down.

Arthur Dodge is gentleman not un-
known to many of our German fellow
citizens. Mr.. Dolge's first home in the
United States was in the town Of EN-
met, where he farmed it for few
years. He endeavored to Get parties
here interested with himself in the
manufacture of felt goods, but receiving
no encouragement he went east and
built a small factory at Dolgeville,
New York, which has grown to large
concern. The following from The New
York Press shows the effect the Wilson
tariff bill Will have on Mr.. Dolge's
business and what his employees may
expect should it become law:
Arthur Dodge, senior member of the
firm of Arthur Dodge & Co., felt goods.
of No. ITO East Thirteenth street. is 90
ing to shut down his factory at Dodge
vile, n. Y. He says he cannot COM
pete with the importers under the
Wilson tariff measure.
Dodge stated yesterday that as the
Wilson bill will reduce the duty on
Woolens 40 per cent. he must prepare
to meet this.
u shall lay off all my hands, 500 in
numbersa week from next Saturday.
Then | shall take account of stock. At
ter that [ SHALL after learning the
prices for which the importers will sell
their goods, reduce the wages of nv
employees sufficient to allow me to
sell at a profit my manufactured goods.
| shall probably be able to resume at
the factory in a month. The average
salary of men and boys at the mill IS
about $3.50 a year. This must be re-
duced about 80 per cent. NV men
know that [ must make a reduction
and are content. Ifbusiness, however.
continues bad, [ shall not resume at all
but will import all my goods. [ can't
stand hard times and the Wilson bill
together"

Will be acceptable to many, there is a
strong undercurrent of opposition
among Democrats in certain quarters:
not that Messrs. Rohr and Perkins
lack in qualifications for the proper
discharge of their duties, but that their
appointments were dictated by ring

wishes Of the rank and file of the party

titled to be. Speaking for Watertown

A PROPHECY.
Silver VIII BE Demonetized and a Dish of

ala


Silver VIII BE Demonetized and Dish of
Dead Sea Apples Served Up to the Peo-
pie.
A determined executive has wonder
full power, and it will be found that
Mr.. Cleveland will carry his point in
regard to silver. The west and the
south feel the necessity of more money
and less credit, but they will not get
1t. The president, backed by the en-
tire power of Wall street, is too strong
for his party. No one can fail to see
the faltering in the ranks of the So
called silver democracy, and they will
make their followers believe they are
doing the best they can, and thus hold
their ranks together. John Sherman
headed off free silver by his now IA
nous act of 1890. This will be repealed
by the democratic special session next
August, and free silver will be
headed off then by some other measure
that will perhaps add to the credit
''money," the blood-suclxing devices of
Wall street, but it will not add one
cent TO the country's legal tender. 1t
viii most likely be in the form of some
sort of banks OF issue, worse than the
present national banks, but that will
work in harmony with them. This is
bold prediction, but we do not hest
tate to make it.-Mount Vernon GIL. !

THE committee on territories has
reported a bill admitting Oklahoma
into the union. According to the bill
only the lands opened to settlement
will constitute the state, which evades
the difficulty heretofore existing as to
whether or not the Indian lands
should be included. There will be an
Oklahoma and Indian Territory, separ-
ate and dlstict, and probably as the
Indian lands are opened they Will be
added to the new state. Some time in
the future when all the land is includ-
ed in one commonwealth, Oklahoma
will be one of the grandest and best
states In the union, having resources
almost unparalleled and people pos
sesscd of that energy and spirit needed
TO make brilliant star in our united
galaxy.

THE INDEX let's its automatic reduction of
the money supply" go OF again this week. The
treasury department says our circulation per
capita is greater than ever before. But then
profound financiers like the INDEX editor don't
care anything about little matter like n
treasury report.-Cresset.
The treasury department says moth
ing of the kim. 1t says the volume of
the currency is less per capita than it
was IL 1866. Mr.. Plumb figured out the
circulation, and in his speech in the
u. S. senate in 1890 said the amount
actually circulating among the people
was less than So each. With conditions
everywhere showing that money is
seareer than for years past and with
everybody's pockets showing for them
selves, there is probably no one in the
world except a Kansas republican edi-
tor who would tell such braZen false
hood as the above. But professionals
like the Cresset editor don't mind them
any more since the callous over the re-
mains of his conscience is crowding the
gray matter entirely out. If brass
were our monetary standard he could
easily regulate the volume of currency
himself.
