THE NEW WOMAN AND MARRIAGE.

Labor Commissioner Carol d. Wright
has recently written aninterestlng report
upon the industrial emancipation OF
woman. He rejoices that alter many
wears of struggle woman has achieved
her right to an education and the develop
ment of her intellectual powers, and ne
holds that the only thing now lacking
to her complete emancipation is her full
social equality. He commends the theory
OF Prof. Lester +. Ward, in his Dynamic
Sociology where in he holds that IN
the beginning woman-beautiful, attract
i've and of q loving nature-had the
power or right of selecting her malecom-
panion. Gradually, however, she became
the subject of mans contention, and
was sought as prize. This contention
led to the transfer of the privilege OF
selection from the female to the male,
and the ascendacy thus gained by man
he has ever since held. He has retained
this right of selection through various
devices, chief among which is his abillty
to secure to woman what she most de-
sires.
When woman secures full Industrial
liberty and independence, when she is
recognized equally as the bread-wlnner,
Col. Wright believes herright OF selection
in marriage will be restored to her. Or at
least she will be accorded an equal and
mutual privilege in the courtship and
the contract. He thinks the industrial
freedom of woman will lead to decrease
in the marriage rate at first, and to an
an increase in divorce; but i'll the end he
belives that the sacredness, purity and
happiness of married life will be increased.
Marriage will take place only when COM
partnership in the hottest sense isintended.
The human race will be recruitedfrom
the best, not the lowest elements. Man
will think more and more OF intellectual
companionship in marriage, and the
family will become more sacred.
Is this not d charming picture OF the
possibilities OF the New WOman?'-

Villas County Land.

The writer spent day at Eagle River
recently and had the pleasure OF 9 drive
through the country about the town.
North of Eagle few miles is splendid
stretch ofland, considerable of which is al
ready under cultivation. No better fields
of oats, potatoes and grass were ever seen
than are to be seen there. 1t was a
surprise to the writer and we will venture
that thare are good many people in
Eagle River who do not know the
amount Of stuff that can be raised by q
couple of seasons work. The reason we
think they don't know OF it is because
more of them would be at it If they. did.
Que man alone, north of Eagle, has made
several thousand dollars clean profit this
year, by raising hay. East of town and
south as we'll are some good looking
clearings, and evidence everywhere of
good grass growing laMd. Villas County
is much like Oneida in character OF soil,
and like Oneida is going to be well set
tied in time. Ii some OF the young mel
who are waiting around Eagle River for
good Job, would go out on u home-
stead near by and when they are not
working for some one, clear and seed the
land, they would soon find themselves
with a farm on their hands worth con-
siderable money few years from now,
and they would never miss the effort
that gave it to them either. We want
to acknowlegs the courtesy OF Mr.. II. d..
Mcleod, who drove us about and showed
US what they have in the furm line near
Eagle River-New North.

Mountain Climbing,

Has wonderful fascination for many
men. And the higher the mountain and
the greater spice of danger about it, the
more anxious is the ordinary man, with
any mountain climbing instincts what
ever, to get 10 the top of that mountain.
There is an intoxication, a fiery enthusi-
asm about it that pushes one on and on,
and rests tired muscles and inspires flag
ging courage to everlastingly keep at it
until the top is reached and the cooling
zephrys that fan the brow Of the noun
tam cool your own throbbing temples.
Americans have thought that it was
necessary to go to Europe, to the Alps,
to find any full grown mountains tolscale
It's all moonshine. Isn't 1900 feet
high enough, with glaciers, those racked,
cracked creatures of ice and snow, and
craters and assures and precipies to climb
over and round, the same as in the Alps7
Yes, they are all right here-close at
hand, and if you are interested to know
where and how and when, just send
your address and six cents in stamps to
CHAs. S. FEE of the Northern Pacific
Railroad, st. Paul, Min, and he will send
you book that recounts Il climb up one
OF the grandest peaks of earth, written
by the gentleman who made the assent.
The chapter on this mountain is pro-
fusely illustrated in half tone etchings
taken by photographer who accom-
panied the party for that purpose. If
you are interested enough in your own
county to know about it's wonderful
scenic features, you want this book.

Talk on Advertising.

A 81 eat many merchants cut down
their advertising in the summer. Some
even stop it altogether.
In everyday life, when thing is hard
to do, it only calls forth greater effort.
If the laborer can't move the stone he
gets crowbar and block of wood. He
makes a lever-and the stone moves. Ii
the crowbar isn't long enough he gets
something longer. He dosn't give up,
because the stone has got to be moved.
Same way i'll business. Trade is a
stone. The funny thing is that the
lighter it gets the harder it is to move.
1t can be moved, though. You may
have to have the lever heightened.
Certainly you ought not to shorten it.
The best business lever is advertising
newspaper advertising is the longest
lever and the quickest to move trade
Dull times are the times to put forth the

oreatest effort and the most money.
People don't usually ask for what the!
have already. Advertising is merely
asking for trade. When the store is
full every day cut down your space.
Don't expect that you will get olg
trade in dull times. but keep count, ana
you'll find that the advertising was
profitable. Profitable right at the time,
and enormously profitable after whi'e.
The very fact that only q few mercnanEs
are wise enough to advertise during dull
seasons makes it all the more prOnUaDie
for those who do. You are there WisssIi
others are not. 1t gives you creator
prominence. 1t will make your adVer-
Using in busy times much more effectlve.
Common sense has g great deal 10 40
with advertising. Think about itasoml
a common sense standpoint. 1t may
take some ''nerve" to pay out money ,Or
newspaper space when the business
isn't paying expenses, but it will pay.
More than half the business houses i'll
the country would be ahead if they could
shut up for three months in the summer.
But they don't do it. Why? Simply be-
cause they can't afford to. People
would forget them. Same way in adVer-
Using. Think about it.-Ex.

THEN AND NOW.

That immense concern at Homestead,
the Andrew Carnegie company, spaying
to it's employees at the present time
eleven thousand dollars per week more
than has been the case for many months
previous. This increase i'll wages has
been made since the Wilson tariff la "
became effective, and the management
candidly admits that it was enabled to
do SO under the marked increasd OF
orders and general feeling of security pre-
yalent under the operation of the new
measure.
There il distinct recollection in the
minds OF American people concerning
the condition OF things at the Carnegie
works when that master piece OF Repub-
lican legislature known al the Mckinley
bill was in force. 1t will be remembered
it was during that period that this COM
pany made big reduction in wages,
and a prescription of wages against
which the employees rebelled. Then came
the employment OF Pinkerton men and
the shooting down of these workingmen
who objected to the reduction and pro-
scription ALI this, it should not be lost
sight of, was when the Mckinley bill
was exercisengits alleged benign influence
to the utmost, and before the election of
Democrat president or even the opening
of the campaign, and hence could not in
reason have been ascribed to what the
Republicans now say was the avowed
Democratic purpose of revising the tariff
when opportunity offered. That oppor-
tunity came and true to it's expressed
promises, the Democrat party took adj
vantage Of it.
The contrast between the conditions i'll
the labor world then, with wages being
daily reduced and the frequent resulting
strikes and consequent bloodshed, and
the present general prosperity, which is
not ephemeral, but has a substantial
basis and steady growth, will not be
overlooked by the workmen. With them
money is more plentiful and the pur-
chasing power of their dollars has been
augmented, condition of things which
has been attained by the overthrow OF
McKinleyism.- Reporter.
