The Elections of 1905.

There are state elections for the choice
of governors or of other state officers
this year in eleven states, to wit Iowa,
Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massa-
chusetts, Mississippi, Nebraska, New
York, New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylva-
MIA. Utah will hold an election to vote
on her state constitution and choose
state officers, ready to enter the sister
hood of States when the President $ proc
lamation is issued.
OF the above contests those in Ohio,
New York, Kentucky and New Jersey
are most interesting. In Ohio a Cover.
nor and minor state officers are to be
chosen, and a legislature which will elect
Brlce's successor in the senate. The en-
tire country is aware, by this time, that
Brice will use every endeavor and every
means to elect Democratic legislature
and return him to the Senate. The iniec
ton of Brice's ambition, backed by his
wealth, into the campaign renders the
cHioAohlSSl 1il SAlIElliely interesting one.
The New York battle is of interest as
involving the issues raised in the metropo-
lis by the efforts of the new Police com.
mission to enforce the laws without
fear or tavor-notably the Sunday-clos-
ing law. But the Republican majority
last year was SO tremendous that the
outcome is hardly uncertain. The chances
favor the Republicans largely.
In Kentucky the division on the silver
question among the Democrats, and the
TACT that the legislature to be elected will
choose Blackburn's successor in the SEN
ate, render the contest one of much in
terest. The Republicans are preparing
for hot campaign, and have confidence
that they will win. New Jersey is a
doubtful state, normally Democratic,
but the Republicans hope to hold the
victory they won last year.

Tuberculosis or Consumption.

The State Board of Health has issued
circular giving the most reliable in
formation concerning the history and
nature of tuberculosis or consumption
its prevalence and the best known pre-
ventive measures.
The circular, printed in three Ian
guages, is boon to the public, emanat-
ing as it does from the very best medi-
cal authority, and can be obtained by
health officers, or others desiring
copies for distribution to citizens OF
Wisconsin, in any desired quantity
without cost, by addressing the secre-
tary, 204 Biddle street, Milwaukee.
Statistics show that consumption
causes one-sixth of all deaths, therefore
claiming more victims than any other
one disease. In the state of Wisconsin,
it is estimated at the present time, it
claims nearly three thousand victims
yearly. This is matter of grave i'm
portance and these valuable circul ars
should be found in every home and
thoughtful attention given them.

first floor and the basement, affOrding
quarters that are complete in every APP

brightness and cleanliness marking a
brand-new institution are everywhere
evident, and the excellent light from
both the front and rear is most satisfac
tory to the proper exhibit of goods.
The firm have taken pains in the selec-
ton of their stock, and it contains only
the latest and best products on the
markets, such as are certain to meet
the whims and fancies of the women
folk. On the top of the shelving were
artfullY arranged the interior displays,
bolts of dress goods encircled by
wreaths of lighter fabrics forming the
chief mode Of decoration, while the
large show window was embellished
with tasty display which attracted
the attention of all passers-by. Neat

orchestra furnished music
Messrs. Fellermann & Fischer were
showered with many congratulations
over their very successful Inauguration

of it's new mercantile house, and all
will wish for it's unqualified success.
