for Mr.. BradfOrd's election is very
bright He is everywhere recog-
nized asa fit man for the place and
one who would fill it to the satisfac-
ton Of the people. His only draw
back in the present campaign is that
he is a poor man and has no money
to spend in making his canvass, while
his opponent has lots of it and will
spend it like water. This may, and

Coroner,-A. King, Eagle River.
School Superintendent A, Higgins,
Eagle River.
The only fight in the convention
was over sheriff There we're two
candidates from Minocqua for that Of
flee, Frank Rodgers and p. j. O'NIal-
ley. Mr.. Rodgers had the support of
four out of the tive delegates from the
western part of the county but O'Mal-
ley had all but one of the delegates
here and so received the nomination,
receiving s votes to for Rodgers

trict attorney but declined and moved

spots which will be hard to heal.
There was considerable hard feeling
expressed over the endorsement of Mr..
Sanborn for district attorney and u
move was at once set OH foot to run
Attorney Thos. Butler as all indie pen
dent candidate against him. A petit
tion was started for Mr.. Butler and
received seventy-seven signatures at
Minocqua in IL short time. Mr.. But
ler has accepted the call and will
make the run against Mr.. Sanborn.
Ho says that he is receiving a great
deal of encouragement and thinks
that he will be elected.
The convention tried hard to pla-
cate the gold democrats of the county
and gave them several places on the
ticket. Mr.. Mckenzie, an out and
out gold democrat who makes mo- SCI
cret of his intention to vote for Mct
Kinley, was named for treasurer and
Alex. Higgins, whose friends claimed
him as gold democrat when present
ing his name to the Republican con-
| vention. was named for county supef-
intendent of schools.

PALMER MAKES PREDICTION
Thinks Mckinley VIII he Elected
President.

Washington. Sept. Ex-senator John N.
Palmer of Illinois, the candidate OF the
national democratic party for president,
arrived In the city this afternoon from
Philadelphia. The senator IL on his WAY
to Illinois, and stopped in this city tos
pay visit to his married daughter, en0
for the purpose OF looking after sorno
matters requiring his attention. Next
week he has some matters demanding
his presence at the meeting OF the su-
preme court OF Illinois at Ottawa. and
after that he will hold himself In readi-
ness to respond to calls for speeches that
he may be asked to make by the nation
al committee.
The senator does not know as yet what
demands there will be made ON him IN
this respect.
Concerning his brief eastern stay and
the general outlook, the senator tonight
spoke substantially as follows:
Il was very much pleased and gratifed
at my reception and at the audience
| which greeted me In the various cities.
and especially at the predominance Of
young men in the organization OF the
party. There Is an evidence OF organiEa-
| ton and earnestness of purpose that
shows great fighting strength. The ma
| ticnal party Is the party of the future.
The party democratic Is passing from
| tho hands of older leaders like Hill and
| Morrison. and the young men are COM
| Ing to the front. The democratic party
| organization Is In bad shape In New Eng
| land, New York and Pennsylvania, and
| the republican party will carry that sec
| tion of the country Mckinley believe
| will also carry Maryland and Illinois, and
think he will be elected president

FIRE IN BURNS & CO.'S FACTORY
He Displayed the Red Flag of An
archy in Bryan's Honor.

Worcester, Mass, Sept. 27.-Consider-
able excitement has been caused in this
city by fire which occurred in the un-
derwear factory of William H. Burns &
Co. this morning. Burns Is the man who
displayed the red flag of anarchy on the
front of his building with Bryan's por-
trait on 1t when the presidential candi-
date visited the city last Friday. This
action caused a great deal of unfavor-
able comment.
An investigation made today by State
Fire Marshal Holt and Chief Engineer
Vaughn of the fire department convinces
them that the fire is of incendiary origin
as the evidence of kerosene having been
sprinkled is manifest. An interesting cpl
sode of the fire was the following tele-
gram. sent within half an hour after the
fire was discovered, to Mr. Bryan. at

REV. REEDS SENSATIONAL SERMON


Denver, Sept. 2.-Rev. Myron w. Reed
of this city, one Of the most prominnnt
preachers OF the west. delivered very
sensational sermon to large congre-
CATION at the Broadway theater today.
His subject was the Leadville strike and
the labor question generally. He opened
with denunciation Of Terrence V. Pow
derly, whom he accused of being "one
OF Hanna's hired men,
Referring to the Missouri miners re-
Gently imported to Leadville he said 1t
was likely to prove "a dangerous change
of climate at this time of year."
Referring to the political situation. he
said
Rev. DR.. Hills is In the place of Pro-
fessor Swing in Central Music hall. Chi
cago. l have been reading his sermons.
The pulpit of Professor Swing Is still va
cant. Professor Swing was philosophic
and poetic. with dislike for controversy
He hated noise. and he loved the Greeks
He preferred the company OF Petrarch
and Penelope to that OF IL Foraker or
Ohio and Susan b. Anthony of every
where. But when Professor Swing did
conclude to touch a social question he
did It up to date and tssiiJ.
But now listen to his successor. VINO
lives In the city of Pullman, Armour lnd
Rockefeller. He said last Sunday that 70
per cent of the fruitage of labor goes TO
| the working class, and was cheered by
every banker In church lie Is most OPP
timistic. He says that the vineyards have
been so generous that 10 cents will buy
a basket of purple fruit. and the poor
mans nickel will now buy f-ait for the
entire day.
"Bill Nye departs. and Rev. DIR. Hills
comes in. The owner Of the vineyard
and the basket maker have as yet failed
to smile at this joke. 1t Is only seen At
the fixed income end of it. 1t is always
a JOY for this Chicago preacher to buy
California grapes at the cost OF picking
them.
In further quotations from Mr.. Hills
sermon on population, in regard to the
bondholders. Mr. Reed said:
Wall street did not come TO the assist
arce OF the government In 1868 to keep

He added: For some reasons, 1t would
