4 Child's Disposition

May be ruined through existing defects in
eyesight. Children are often called dull and
stupid by teachers and parents through no
fault or their own. Perhaps born with a
defect in sight, they don't know of any differ
ent world from that which they see through
defective eyes. Mark any peculiarities that
children may have in looking at objects at a
distance or near by. Squiting, frowning,
looking sidewise, with partially closed eyes
are indications of eye troubles. Better be
over cautious in having a child's eyes
examined than to take too much responsible
ity into your own hands. Examination free.
CHILDREN'S EYES
Should have careful attention. They
should be examined at the first complaint by
reliable optician-especially while the
child is in school.
A little care at the proser time may. save
them untold misery and heir parents much
remorse. A defect that may be easily
remedied NOW might prove difficult LATER.
All diseases of the eye correctly diagnosed.
Examination Free.-W. w. Taggart, Boxrud
Block, River Falls, Wisconsin.

Yes, we believe in nigh tarif-just
been convinced that high tariff and
high taxes are really necessary. With
an expenditure of $135, 100000 for
the Nicaragua canal, and 100000,
900 year for large standing army
and many other corresponding large
sums for increasing the navy, ETC.,
etc. high tariff and high taxes must
be maintained

Fifteen million dollars is large
amount of money to put into carriages
but this amount is what a French
man is going to use to buy carriages
and wagons all of which are to be
made in Chicago and exported across
the waters. This giant contract,
however docs not include the pur-
chase, of horses, as the carriages in
question are OF the electrical order
no old horse need apply. Deny it if
you will, but the electric motor
vehicles are to be the coming fad.
The old slow going horse motors
must give way. They will soon be a
back number especially in the cities
and large towns and will eventually
spread to the country as soon as
proper roads are made to invite them
on. Count de Jotemps, the French
man who placed this large order
with the Fisher Equipment Co., OF
Chicago says ''The American patents
on horseless vehicles are the only
ones of practical value on the mar
ket. In Europe we have nothing that
can compare with the American
motor vehicles, either as to lightness,
easy running qualities, rigidity or
stability. We are satisfied that
America will furnish the horseless
carriage OF the future, and it is our
idea to control the supply.

Wisconsin furnished 5469 soldiers
during the late unpleasantness with
Spain, out of which number two were
killed in battle and 229 died OF
disease. If all the food furnished the
soldiers was like the canned beef it is
a wonder that the death list was not
larger.

Importance; therefore the utmost
care should be exercised IN theselection
OF this official. 1t is trying position
at best, requiring an incumbent of
quick perception. of keen eyesight
and an "amiable temperament"
These physical qualifications are as
important in a post master as learn
ing is to a school master or religion
is to minister.
River Falls has been blessed during
the past four years with as good a
post master as it has been the good
fortune OF any city to boast, and its
people cannot afford to make mis-
take by choosing one less qualified in
these essentials to succeed Mr.. Nc
Gregor.

The United States has been victori-

skirmishes and all without large
standing army, but since the tronble

in which but two battles were fought,

daily is hardly borne out by the facts
when it is known that Iloilo, lefty

THE CONTEST or THE ELECTION
OF SENATOR SCOTT.
Col Moeraw is very EIopelal.

MIR. Frank L" Wclles, Washington
counsel for Col. John T. McGraw, is
in the city consulting with Senator
Dotson and with Judge j. G. Nc
Cluer, Col. McGraw's local counsel,
in regard to the dispositions which
will be taken here next week in the
contested election case against n. b.
Scott. He has Just returned from
Charleston, where he has been tax
ing dispositions.
Mr.. Wells is very hopeful. and
says that Col McGraw IS also, of
having Scott nnseated from the Sen.
ate In feet, MIR. Wells says that il
certain evidence developes as they
expect it will, that 1T will be ccr-
tainty that Mr.. Scott will be un-
seated.
I'VE feel' said he "that Judge
ment has already been passed upon
our case but we are relying upon
new evidence TO set the verdict aside.
BY that mean that Senator EIkins
far too shrewd politician to have
accepted the election of Scott by
minority of the legislature unless he
had previously received assurances
from other Republican Senators
that they would recognize it as ie-
gal think therefore that the Sem
ate passed on the case before the
vote for Senator was taken. Bat
we will, I think, be able to present
such evidence that the Senators 5
will be compelled to unseat Scott"
A new point will be raised name
ly that the joint assembly of the
House and Senate was an illegal
body being conducted under the
agreement of the two houses by sepa-
rate resolutions as TO who should
vote and not under the act of Con-
gress of 1866 which provides how
elections of Senators shall be cou-
Quoted. The right to hold an office
to which one has been elected by
the votes of the people is a consti-
tutional right and member of the
Legislature can not be deprived of
this constitutional right by mere res
olution- Two men, Senator Kidd
and Delegate Dent, who were elected
and were afterwards so declared and
seated, were present at the joint as
sembly but their names was not
called and they were not allowed to
vote. Therefore the convention was
illegal and its entire proceedings
void.
1t has been proven bv the deposit
tions taken in Charleston that
threats of personal violence were
made against Republican members
of the legislature who refuse to vote
for Scott and on the ground of in
timidation his election will be at
tackled
1t will be shown that the Repub-
licans stated to the Democrats that
they proposed to turn enough Dem
ocrats out of the Senate to elect n
Republican Senator and If they
could not do that they would organ
ize a rump house. Knowing that it
left no hope of the election of Sen
ator, the Democrats entered into the
agreement, or treaty of peace as it
was called, solely that necessary leg
Islatlon might take place, believing
that though Senator would be lost
by it. the party would eventually
derive benefit from it.

Marriage is said to be an equal partner
