It's None Of
My Business

how much Coffee some 9TH
er grocers sell or how much
they charge for it. But il is
my business when they tell
people that their Coffee is
just as good as Blanke's
Roasted Coffee and that their
kind costs less. Maybe their
Coffee does cost less. Poor
stuff never does cost much
anyhow.
But the rock-ribbed truth
of the whole matter is that
no other 33 I-3 cent Coffee
on this big round earth is as
pure or wholesome or deli
cious as Blanke's. And it's
the most economical Coffee
at the same time. One pound
OF Blankets Coffee will gn n
far as a pound and n quarter
of other kinds. And you can
come back and get your
money if you don't like it.

Pope county has a fourishing vol
industry. Last year the county PAID
$500 in bounties, ard this is what the
Glenwood Herald has to say of it.:
A remarkable tact about it is that
with the single exception of one male
wolf in Lake Johanna, all these bounties
were paid for wolves killed in single
locality and almost all in Mlnnewaska
township. An inspection of the war
rants also showed that only two full
grown female wolves were killed in the
whole lot, 1O5 cubs eng taken and one
male. Evidently the supply Of cub
wolves will not be much less next year
than this and the wolf hunters will have
a sort of gold mine on which they can
draw dividends each spring. Each fe-
male will raise litter of from nine TO
twelve cubs. which at SIS pejce will be
worth considerably more than the moth
er at SIS. besides being easier to cap
ture. While the wolf hunter makes afi-
davit that he killed all the wolves he
could, he would scarcely expect him to
be very energetic in his search for fe-
males under these conditions.

The only source of clamor for the
nomination of Clough for governor
seems clearly to be that of the machine
OF which ne has control. 1t is therefore
a manufactured attempt at a boom,
coming from interested parties and is no
expression of the sentiment of the peo-
pie. On the other hand Hon. w. E. Lee
springs up and is being pushed forward
by the people despite the efforts of the
ring. The people recognize in him an
a BILE, honorable gentleman. man with
a clean record as public servant, un-
trammeled with political intrigue and
whose nomination would meet with the
approval of his party as whole. A
