Democratic County Convention.

The Democrats of Wood county con-
vened in the city of Marshfeld, Thurs
day, October LIST, in county convention,
and placed in nomination the following
ticket:
Member of Assembly,. X. p. Hiles,
of Dexterville.
Sheriff-Mike Vincent, Town of
Grand Rapids.
County Clerk-F. L. Rourke, Centra-
liza.
Treasurer-A. C. Ludwig, Pittsville.
District Attorney-D. d. Conway,
Centralia.
County Superintendent-F Starr,
Town of Grand Rapids.
Clerk of Court-W. G. Murray,
Marshfeld
Coroner-John Therolf, Marshfeld.
Surveyor-Donald McKercher, Town
of Rock.
The ticket is good one. We are ac-
quainted with only few of the nomi-
nees but they are good men. Ifelected
they will probably make good officers.
The principal reason why they should
not be elected is because they are in
favor and in sympathy with the free
coinage of silver, endorse the Demo-
cratic platform, and their election would
mean the endorsement of a vicious
platform. In other words those who
oppose the Democratic platform
adopted in Chicago should not vote for
county officers who uphold it. Their
election would aid in strengthening that
sentiment. The Republican county
ticket stands for the opposite and is
made up of just as good men if not
better, whose election means prosperity,
protection and sound money.

DOINGS AT NEKOOSA.
The New Paper 7achine and New
Sulphite Plant Better Railroad
Facilities.

At the mill of the Nekoosa Paper Co.
the two water-tube boilers have been
connected with the three steam engines
which are to run the paper machines.
Machines numbers one and two are
now being run by steam engines.
Number three machine and engine are
now being put in readiness for running,
and if nothing happens, will put paper
over number three very soon.
All of the buildings for the sulphite
plant are under cover, and the concrete
floors being laid, and some of the
machinery set. One digester is riveted
together ready for lining, and the
second will be in week or ten days,
two crews being at work on it. Mr..
Grey and Mr.. Behrend, superintendent
and chemist respectively of the sulphite
plant, arrived this week. The water
wheels formerly used for running the
paper machines will furnish power for
the sulphite plant. A rope drive Will
be used to convey the power to the
different parts of the mill, excepting
the new wood preparing room, which
will be direct shafting.
The Chicago, Milwaukee. & st. Paul
road will begin the construction of "Y"

L. 4. HAVENOR.

Republican candidate for reelection
to the office of County Superintendent
of Schools has had no superior in that
office. Teachers, School Boards,
scholars and people commend him for
the thoroughness he has shown in his
work. A man of education himself he
loves to see high grade of work ac-
complished in his district A close
observer and believer in the school
laws, strict and accurate in his exami-
nations, has tendency TO make all the
teachers under him grow more like
him. A higher grade of school work is
thereby accomplished by such disci-
pline. A change at this time would
only retard the progress of our public
schools. There ought to be no politics
in this Office and we have every reason
to believe the people will be satisfied

best medicine. :.

Father Time, with his reverses and
cycle CT hot winds, has left mis- impress
upon the prairies Of Western Kansas.
Ten years ago the chief occupation Of
the people of that region vas that Of
town building. Future county seats
dotted every hillside, and commercial
centers adorned every valley. Water
works, electric light and gas plants
were the public utilities which were
pointed to with pride by the pioneer
boomers who led the march into the
Great American desert.
A few days ago the only remaining
building in the once flourishing town
Of Terry, in Finney County, was moved
away. This place was the ideal loca-
ton for a county seat ten years ago,
and its enterprising people seriously
considered the ACCESSIBILITY of wrestling
county seat honors from Garden City.
All that remains to tell the weary trav-
eler of the once bustling town of Terry
are the cellar holes over which once
stood stately and imposing buildings.
The first building erected in Terry
was a two-story schoolhouse. 1t was
large enough at the time of erection
to house every child Of school age in
Finney County. Then a steam grist
mill was built that would do credit to
a city Of 10000 inhabitants. Following
these in rapid succession came all the
necessary stores and shops, and within
six months from the time the town vas
plated Terry was the home of 1000
people.
1t Is related Of this town that when
the first Sunday school was organized
there a search Of five miles in all d.
rections failed to find a man who was
qualified to offer up a prayer. By agree-
nent this part Of the exercises was dis
pensed with and the business Of the
Sunday school proceeded.-St. Louis
