We most heartily concur in the
following from the Malvern Times
Journal 1--WE hope the legislature
will change the name of Cleveland
county. This county was organized
during the carpet bag reign for the
purpose of honoring S, W. Dorsey,
then carpet bag United States
Senator. He afterwards became
famous as a star route manipulation
and was exposed in the United
States court, after which Gin 1885,
we think it was), the name of the
county was changed to Cleveland,
in honor of the then President. Mr.,
Cleveland betrayed the people; we
very much favor everything that
will Danish from this state the re.
membrance of the old fraud"

People overlooked the Importance
of permanently beneficial effects,
and were satisfied with transient ac-

known that Syrup of Figs will per-

time, but finally injure the system.

We Lack Moral Honor.
To the Editor of THE VOICE

IN your last issue under the
heading, "River Falls Normal
Burned you say, ''The Normal
should be rebuilt in Richmond. "
Now, [ am well aware Of the de-
sire on the part Of New Richmond
to annex the surrounding country,
but to try to profit by near
neighbours misfortune, | think, to
say the least, is very uncharitable.
The Normal should be rebuilt
without delay at River Falls. To
locate it elsewhere would be the
highest kind of treachery, and
any town making an effort to Sc
cure the River Falls Normal is
lacking in moral honor. A friend
in need is a friend indeed and
every encouragement should be
given to River Falls.

The Hudson authorities are
giving that city a thorough over
hauling in elevating the moral
standard. Things have been run
ming quite loose for the last
number of years-immorality
holding high carnival without re-
straint. But since John w.
Bashford has held the reins of
authority conditions have been
changed materially and for the
better and today Hudson is a
model town. With the assistance
of Chief of Police w. FL. Thorn,
city attorney S. J. Bradford and
the district attorney, gambling
dens and other places of evil have
been outed and those people who
were leaders in doing evil have
changed to sobriety. And thanks
be to the mayor of our sister city
for the good work that has been
done.
Not long ago Mr.. Bashford said
to the writer: cat all hazards
the Hudson girls shall be pro-
tected and evil practices will not
be tolerated any longer. Immor-
atty has received it's quietus and
we shall see to it that conditions
will not be any different under
the present administration" In
Mr.. Bashford, Hudson finds a
second Parkhurst. A man who is
fearless; who has purposes and
carries them into effect. Of course
Hudson has never been a Sodom
or a Gomorah but 1t was bad
enough for a place of it's size.-

Postal Banks in a Campaign.

In the 9th illinois district a
campaign for congressman is in
progress to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Congressman
Cooke. The sentiment for postal
savings banks is so strong in Chi
cago that both party platforms
pledge the candidates to work for
them if elected. In recent speech
Henry S. Boutell, the republican
candidate, said:
"The people demand that con-
gress at its next session shall pro-
vide for the establishment Of postal
savings banks under the control
of the postoffice department., and
a measure looking to this end
would have my hearty support.
Postal savings banks have given
satisfaction to the people wher-
ever they have been tried. Their
existence in all parts of the coun-
try is a constant invitation to
thrift and economy, and wherever
thrift and economy prevail power
ty, ignorance and crime disappear.
The establishment of such a sys-
tenn of agencies for the reception
of the smallest deposits would be
in exact accordance with the prin-
ciple which should characterize
all our legIslation-namely, the
protection of the weakest. IF we
protect the weakest, we protect
all J"

A motion for new trial IN the
case of John w. Fertig was denied
and the case will probably be APP
pealed to the supreme court. The
prisoner was taken to Waupun. 60
ing on the Milw aukee train. When
at Wabasha he realized that he
was outside of the state and pro-
tested against being taken across
the line without equisition papers,
resisting violently the efforts of
the under sheriff to put him on
the train. Quite scene was
created and Under Sheriff Miller's
finger bitten in the scuffie. A
window Ill the car was also broken,
but the prisoner, however, was
finally boarded and taken to the
state prison. - Menomonie Times.

Cuban Freedom.

Ithaca, N. Y, Nov. $50
large were the crowds which went
tonight to Cornell university that
Barnes Hall, where it had been
announced that an address by
Hannis Taylor, ex-United States
minister to Spain, on Cuba, would
be delivered, was found to be IN
adequate to hold them and the
meeting place had to be changed
to Library Hall, where about
1000 people were accommodated.
The audience was strictly in SYM
pathy with the speaker in every
statement regarding Cuba. Mr..
Taylor said in part:
Events are moving fast, and no
man, not even the president, can
stop them. No real statesman
ever tried to avoid a crisis by
turning his back upon it or by
self-deception. II the president
makes the fatal mistake of attemp-
ting longer to muzzle congress by
putting his imprimatur upon
false hopes and empty illusions,
before the ink is dry upon his
message events will discredit all
his predictions. Let congress but
speak the final and emphatic
word-recognltl n nd In ninety
days the long and bloody tragedy
will be over, the whole Christian
world will rejoice and say amen; ;
Spain will be rescued from an i'm
possible situation; there will be
no war with the United States,
and Cuba will be free.
