Rouiet D. Marshall.

Judge Marshall las been called to
run as a candidate for the office of as
sociate justice, which he now holds.
He has, in a graceful letter, accepted
the nomination rendered by the bar Of
the state and large number of other
citizens signing nomination papers.
He will be elected without opposition,
as no one proposes or is proposed
against him. While nominally a re-
publican, Judge Marshall has been so
long upon the circuit bench as to be
wholly withdrawn from politics, and
the most narrow partisan-if any such
there be i'll any party opposed to his
could not complain Of him on political
grounds. He made his fame as a jur-
ist. He served for six years as circuit
Judge and there showed the high judi
cial qualities which caused his APP
pointment to the supreme bench to
meet with universal approval. He is
at the right age for the best judicial
labor. He,is man of indefatigable in
dustry and great capacity for pro-
tracted mental labor; and the state
may we'll be congratulated that its
court Of last resort has the services of
so able a judge, and is likely to have
them for long period.
It is to be hoped that Judge Mar
shall will receive a large vote. Judicial
elections, where no opposition draws
attention to the matter, are apt to be
overlooked and a light vote cast. This
ought not to be so. Judge Marshall
especially deserves the compliment Of
a large vote.

Obituary

Mrs. Eliza P. Curtis, widow of Burlin
Curtis, and for many years resident
of Kenosha, died on March a in Bos-
ton at the home Of her son, Ernest 81.
Morgan. Mrs. Curtis was IS years
and months old She came to Keno
sha at the time Of her second marriage,
about fourteen years ago, Joined the
congregational church, allied herself
with many of the women's societies and
was a woman we'll known and highly
esteemed.
Her long, faithful vigil Of more than
eighteen months over the sick bed of
her husband, a vigil which ended only
with his life, undermined an excellent
constitution and aggravating other
complaints, caused her death. She was
very i'll in Milwaukee and only sum-
moned strength to return east to her
children and her native hills. She
failed very rapidly, becoming almost
blind and deaf, and with the constant
pain she endured death was a welcome
release.
"Life is weary day, burned by the wind and
sun:
And death is the calm, cool evening hour when
the weary day is done.

The Ticket.

The republican city convention met
Saturday evening and the delegates did
She work entrusted to them we'll. They
have placed in nomination ticket
aDmposed of good, clean men, against
nok one of whom can any objection be
urged, and each man on the ticket is
entitled to the unwavering support of
every lover OF good government III the
e5iy
Captain Charles Frantz, the nominee
asT mayor, is perhaps as we'll known as
any man in the city. He has resided
here for years, mas been hOnored time
and again in being placed in positions
Of public trusts, and to those trusts he
has always proved faithful. He ac-
eBDts the nomination against his per-
8oBal wishes, but as it comes to him
unanimously he will head the ticket,
md if elected, will, as he stated in his
acceptance before the convention, give
The city a clean, honest and business
Gke administration.
William S. Lamb, the nominee for
e5sy clerk, is the we'll known phar-
macist, late of the firm of Leach &
Lamb. He has never held a public
Bffioe, but is entirely capable of taking
senre of the work in the city clerks of
Sec, and if, elected he will serve the
ngblic faithfully and will always be
sonnd attentive to duty.
william f. Fisher, the nominee for
s7sy treasurer, is one Of Kenoshas
8eading merchants and business men.
No better choice could have been made
@r the office of treasurer. A successful
nan Of business, of unquestioned integ
ATTY, any man who knows him would be
Billing to trust him with the city's
money without the formality of giving a
Bond. He will receive the vote of
svery taxpayer who wishes to see the
affairs of the city conducted by tax
PAYERS and men of business qualifica-
lions.
Charles G.. Theieen, the nominee for
assessor, is one of our leading Swedish
american citizens, and is in every way
qualified to make fair and impartial
assessment of Kenosha's property inter
esks. He is a retired business man, a
good Judge of values and has the time
and qualifications to give his best serv-
ees to the city and its interests.
Horace G.. Cole, the nominee for JUS
nee of the peace, has always lived in
Kenosha and has always been repub-
Ecan. There has been no man in the
party more ready and willing to give

Nobody cared very much what the
opinion Of Bill Chandler was on the
Mckinley boom, but doubtless he feels
better for having delivered himself of
it, Mckinley would have been seri-
ously handicapped if Chandler had
spoken favorably of him. Perhaps the
very strongest reason for nominating
Mckinley is that that the Chandler
class Of politicians are all against

F." MCKINLEY is acknowledged to be a
strong second choice in Massachusetts,
and Connecticut. This is another
source of strength which will trouble
the bosses a good deal. By killing the
Reed boom. as they practically have
with their favorite son dodge, they
have most likely released to Mckinley
an important element which he could
not have otherwise secured.

The supreme court of Illinois is do
ing good work. 1t has handed down a
decision which sends the MeadowcrOft
brothers to Jail for receiving deposits in
their bank knowing it to be insolvent.
Great pressure was brought to bear to
save these young speculative bankers
from the punishment they deserve.
They took money which was placed
with them in trust and lost it in wild
speculation. They did not do legiti
mate banking business and consequent
ly came to grief, The punishment is
light compared to what is meted out to
similar offenders in other countries. In
barbarous China the banker who fails
has his head chopped off. In this
country if he does not skip to Canada,
he generally hires good lawyers and
manages to wriggle through the mesh
es of the law.

HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.
Some Reading that Will Prove Inter
esting to Young Mothers-How to
Guard Against the Disease,

Group is terror to young moth
ers, and to post them concerning
the cause, first symptoms and
treatment is the object of this
item. The origin of Group is a com
mon cold. Children who are sub
iect to it take cold very easily, and
Group is almost sure to follow. The
first symptom is hoarseness; this is
soon followed by a peculiar rough
cough, which is easily recognized
and will never be forgotten by one
who has heard it. The time to act
is when the child first becomes
hoarse. If Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is freely given all tendency
to Group will soon disappear. Even
after the croupy cough has devel-
oped it will prevent the attack.
There is no danger in giving this
remedy, for it contains nothing in
furious. For sale by Smith Drug
Company.
