How do you do when you buy shoes or
clothing? Don't you 60 to the place (if
you can find it) where they tell you that
you may wear the articles out, and then,
the money? Why not do the same
when you buy medicine?
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is sold on that plan. It's the only blood
purifier so certain and effective that it
can be guaranteed te benefit or cure, in
every case, or you have your money
back.
It's not like the ordinary spring med
round, it cleanses, builds up, and invig-
CRATES the system. If you're bilious,
rundown, or dyspeptic, or have any
blood-taint, nothing can equal it as a
remedy.

a CORRESPONDENTS COMMENT.
He Thinks the Wilson Bill Will Pass
Income Tax and All.

He Thinks the Wilson Bill VIII Pass,
Income Tax and All.
New YORK, Jan. 27.-The Mail and
Express Washington special says that
although no definite line of action has
been determined on by the republicans
in the house upon the action which will
be made to recommit the Wilson tariff
bill to the ways and means committee,
with instructions to strike out the in
come-tax schedule and make other
changes. yet the individual members of
the minority express the opinion that
they will all vote against the recon-
initial. There is not more than one
chance in twenty that the Wilson bill,
even with the income-tax schedule in it,
will be defeated in either house on the
final passage, but by keeping the two
democratic ranks will be greater and
more bitter than if the bill were recon-
mitted to the ways and means commit
tee. The opponents of the income tax
within the democratic line are pointing
out that Samuel J. Tilden, the great
leader of the democracy, was so bitter
against an income tax that he refused to
pay his while levied for war purposes,
and the government was compelled to
collect it from him by force. Tilden, a
great constitutional lawyer, declared the
income tax unconstitutional, inquisito-
rial and against our form of government.
The democratic enemies of income tax
are asking their brethren whether they
intend to repudiate Tilden and his prin-
ciples, or have changed front for the
purpose of laying the groundwork for

THE petition for the pardon OF
Rose ZoIdoski, convicted aud now
serving a life sentence in the State
Prison at Waupun for poisoning
Ella Mally at Rtchlaud Center
about two aud half a years ago, was
argued before Governor Peck last
Tuesday afternoon. A delegation
Of about twenty Richland Center
people, among whom was Mrs. Maly,
mother of the dead girl, were pre-
sent at the hearing. The argument
for the pardon was made by l.. II.
Bancroft, who was her first attorney
at the trial in Grant county, a re.
monetance with 1900 names against
the pardon was also presented,
signed largely by Richland Center
people, and District Attorney Burn
ham, who prosecuted the case,
argued in opposition to the exercise
Of executive clemency. After hear
ing the arguments the Governor an
pounced that he would carefully
reyiew the points made and would
take plenty Of time before rendering
any decision. No new evidence
was offered, and the very generally
expressed belief is that the Cover
nor will not overruIe the finding Of
the jury and the Circuit aud Sn-
preme Courts.

Naming of Mineral Point.

Sunday is an interesting article on
the origin Of the names of several
Wisconsin cities from which we
extract the following in relation
to Mineral Point According to
the best information obtainable
IL is minutely correct:
The Hon Moses VI, Strong, of
the pioneers Of Wisconsiu's lead
region, contributes the following
narrative MS to the naming of Min
eml Point: "a remarkable topo-
graphical feature characteristic of
the mineral region Of Southwestern
Wisconsin is the fact that all the
small rills IA rjvutets formed by the
numerous springs that pervade the
whole region run through deep aud
narrow valleys, upon either side of
which the ground rises abruptly
until it reaches An elevation Of from
one to two hundred feet above the
small streamets. These elevations,
ilauked on either side by these small
brooks, form plateau of table land
of greater or less extent usually
called ridges, which rs they approach
the Junction of the circumjacent
streams, are often called points.
About 100 yards snutherly from the
railroad depottn the city OF Mineral
Point, and at the site OF tho woolen
mill, is the junction OF two such
small streams of water, the western
most one of which ruus IN nearly u
sonth course, aud the other IN u
course about thirty degees west of
south, between which Is one of
these characteristic ridges, with an
elevation gradually increasing in n
nothreu direction from so to 900
feet, aud which terminates opposite
aud about thirty yards easterly from
the depot IN a precipice Of sand
rock, about 20 or 30 feet high.
. The southern portiton of this ridge
was not iuapuy called a point
Early IN the summer OF 1923, a rich
and extensive lode Of minerl dead
ore was always then called by lhe
generic term Of 'muerH) vas dis
covered on this ridge or point of
land, which was immeliltely fol.
lowed by other discoveries; and the
locality soon became known
throughout the whole region as
'The Mineral Point The news Of
the discoveries on the mineral point
spread rapidly aud extensively,
and had the effect of bringing dur
ing that year of 1923 great mum
ber of miners and others. many of
whom constructed cabins west of
the westernmost watercOurse, on
either side of a thoroughfare, which
is now called Commerce street.
Among these cabins WAS store,
a blacksmith shop, a tavern, drink
ing house and public boarding
house, thus forming for those days
a very respectable hamlet, TO which
by "A natural transition was, by com
mon consent given the name of
Mineral Point This name in the
first instance was only designed to
indicate the ridge or point Of land
upon which the valuable mineral
discoveries had been made La
this manner in 1928 q name, the
meaning of which was indicated by
the adjacent mineral point, was
. given to "a hamlet, which has grown

manufacturing city"

Mr. Hanscom was a remarkable
man in many ways. He was intel.
lectually bright beyond the average,
of good memory, possessed fine
conversational powers, and carried a
happy vein of humor through it all.
No matter whether with the man
or child he could aud did converse

not learned, but it is many years
ago. For the old Mineral Point
railroad he served as conductor and
assistant superintendent, and there
was no more popular or competent
man ever connected with that com
pany. After that company gave
