of time.
The banquet which followed was
highly commended and thoroughly
enjoyed feature of the entertain

good things, the hall was turned

WOodmen of the World.

Mr.. Geo. K. Rogers, chief deputy
OF the Woodmen Of the World, ar
rived in Toledo last night and will
lecture this evening in the court
house. Mr.. Rogers COMES to us
highly recommended as a fraternal
speaker. The local camp has
arranged an entertaining program,
and altogether a most enjoyable
evening is promised.
In an interview with a represen-
tative of the LEADER, speaking of
fraternal orders and of Woodcraft,
Mr.. Rogers said:
"The wonderful progress of fra
ternal benefit ,rders is one of the
noteworthy events of these closing
years ofthe century. Their growth
having been greater during the
last ten years than in the fifty years
previous.
1t IS estimated that today over
six millions of American citizens
hold fellowship in fraternal orders.
These orders have become the
recognized protectors Of the home,
and since the American home is
the foundation of the American
government, therefore to the extent
that these orders are keeping intact
the home to that extent do they
become one Of the pillows of our
country itself. Our American fra
ternities have paid out to the needy,
the sick, the widows and orphans,
over $500, 900, 900, and are now
paying over $4,000, 900 per an
nun.
Our own order of Woodmen of
! the World has met with most re-
markable success. Less than nine
of age; I4o, 900 members; working
in every state in the Union, in
Canada and Mexico; over q million
dollars paid widows and orphans;
1000 monuments placed on the
graves of deceased "neighbors'
and growing at the rate of 4,ooc
month.
The LEADER congratulate these
Choppers" on their progress. We
are always glad 10 give The a kind
word, for no movement outside oI
the church is doing so much toward
the advancement and elevation oi
the race.

SC0FlElO AND A THIRD TERM.

We do not suppose Governor ScOfield
yet kOnwS whether he would accent Il
third term or not. His health is an
important consideration. He tells rs
he would not walk to the door for the
honor. and he means it. lie tried for
the office for Il second time. because he
was under fire and could not afford to
retire leaving his record under such
imputatiOnS as those to which the
La Toilette faction subjected it. The
outcome has been that he is not only
indicated. but has earned this recent
popularity (even among the masses
with whose interests he was alleged to
be out Of sympathy that suggests
continuance in office
Governor ScOtield also tells us he is
not candidate. This expression in
American politics, when it means any
thing, means that he will not make
efforts to get the office. II does not
mean he would not accept it. 1t
means that he will not send his friends
and appointeeS scurrying over the
state to secure delegates. Governor
ScOfeld is a sincere man and does what
he says. An argument for his renOm-
ination and reelection is the fact that
thus the other state officers would
conclude their terms at the same time
with the executive; and SO the prac-

A Notable Change.

keeper Minneapolis, Mimi Joined
the small army of monthly periodicals,
not, however. as one Of the rank and
file, but rs one Of the leaders. The
June and July numbers show that its
new uniform is certainly in keeping
with its new aspirations. 1t has
doubled in size, giving as much read
ing matter as it did for twenty-five
years as a Semi-mOnthly, while better
paper, more numerous and better
illustrations, better Typography and
preSSWOrk. and several new depart
mentS make it more attractive than
it has ever before been. This is say
ing great deal for periodical of the
HOuSekeeper'S well-knOWn popularity.
yet this much more can be said, 1t
has not lost any of the hOmelike quail
tiles that have made it a fayOrite
with ladies. With all it's improve
mentS, its subscription price has not
been raised. 1t not only leads all
tifty-cGnt publications., but ranks well
with those whose subscription price
is twice the amount.
A prominent feature is new serial
story entitled 1.-THE Rescue of Brother
Bendyk," the scene Of which is laid
in Japan. 1t is of special interest
because it deals with the customs,
auStere religion and ancient temples
oflthe japanese, being illustrated
with original photographs.

chapters of the new story. may be had.

WHAT Is WANTED.

1t would seem as if this country had
suffered enough from tariff tinkering
on frcetrade lines to settle down to
the permanent protection of home
industries. The Mckinley tariff
brought prosperity, the Wilson tariff
produced disaster, and the Dingley
tariff has restored prosperity. The
story is quickly told, but is weighed
with instructive experience. Political
sense ought to restrain any party from
a renewal of the attempt to destroy
the system of protection. Possibly the
democrats have learned something and
will engage in no such attempt. Let
us hope Sc. What the country wants
is an assurance of continuous stability
and prosperity. But if the democratic
party enters the field again as a dis
turber and a destroyer, nothing will
remain but to give the democratic
party the soundest thrashing of its
liberalization PA Sentinel.

KEEP HANDS OFF,

There has been a great deal Of foolish
talk as to the necessity for protective
tariff having passed, because in some
articles of manufacture we are able to
underSell the world, and hence our eX-
ports of these manufactured goods are
increasing at magnificent rate. This
is proof of the SOundneSS of Il repub-
lican doctrine that protective tariff
does not interfere with the develop
ment OF our export trade. The free
traders have always declared that a
large volume of manufactured exports
is impossible under protection. We
have, during the past two years,
proved the utter falsity of this theory.
Don't 90 to juggling with the tariff.
Let well enough alone. The people of
this country have lost, in the aggre-
gate, many millions of dollars by the
check to enterprise which has resulted
from the agitation of the tariff QueS-
ton from 1884 to 1896. We are getting
ample revenue from the Dingley bill.
1t Expresses no one. Keep hands off,
and let the country go on prospering.-

t1ce of a full new administration
coming and going be restored.
The convention is some ways ahead.
as he himself remarks. There have
been two precedents in Wisconsin for
a third term. Gov. Rusk's yindication
for his conduct Of the Milwaukee riots
contributed to his long term. Gov.
Eairchild WAS a marked success follow
ing the war.
The critical clement in the present
situation would be the executives re-
lati0ns to his friends who are already
in the field-SenatOr bennett. Lieu
tenant Governor Stone and others
but Gov. ScOfield's attitude safeguards
him from criticism at this point. No
one who knows the keen sense of honor
Of Gov. ScOield can imagine him, I'M
der present conditions, melting or
allowing his friends to ''huStle for
delegates. The campaigns of the
other candidates will be at the state
convention with enthusiasm. No
doubt districts will send Scoteld dele
gates, unless that gentleman shall
conclude he would not accept re-
nomination. In the course of pro-
ceedings the denomination Of the
present executive might seem judici
Gus to the party. Gov. Scotield's
health is improving constantly and he
is in growing favor. Moreover there
is something about the honor bound
to fascinate the best man who ever
held SO high position. Gov. Scotield's
attitude is sincerely and fairly eX-
pressed when he says he is not a
candidate. No one who wants the
| office will be Wronged by him. Let
the months roll by.-Madison State
Journal.
There is no sentiment in this neck
of the woods in favor of third term.
Gov. Scofield has made a fairly good
governor so far in his administration
and we hope he will continue to the
end OF his term. There are others you
know who will make good governors
if you give them d chance. Pass the
honor to others is our sentiment.

Weekly Crop Bulletin,

Observation-Disclosures no very
high temperatures occurred during the
week, the average was slightly above
normal and about + > higher than last
week, ranging from Il over the
southwestern counties to 66o along
Lake Superior.
acknowledgements and almost con-
tinuOuS rains occurred during the
week throughout the central portion
of the state, the total for the week
amounting to from two to four inches.
The rainfall was lighteSt over the
southeastern counties and along the
northern border.
Corn-The warm weather and
abundant moisture have caused corn
to make a very rapid growth, but sun
shine is needed to strengthen and
mature the plant. The continued wet
weather has interfered with cultiva-
ton and some fields are weedy.
Winter Wheat and Rye-are ready
for harvesting; some has already been
cut. These crops stand up well and
give promise of d good yield.
Oats and Barley-There has been
some deterioration in these crops dur
ing the week, owing to the heavy and
continuous rains, which caused them
to lodge badly. Otherwise these crops
give excellent promise.
Grass and Pastures -Iaying has
been delayed by the continuous rains.
Considerable hay was cut during the
early part of the week but little has
been secured, a large amount still re-
manning in the swath. The crop is
fair.
Potatoes-ha made rapid growth,
but many pieces are very weedy, as it
has been impossible to cultivate
properly on account of wet weather
Fruits abundant; Cranberries
have made a rapid growth, and the
conditions of the crop, in comparison
with last week, shows a decided I'M
