GOES BACK TO JAIL.
van Gasbeck will have Another Week of
Jail L1felBefore Trial

The case against w. B. Van Gas
beck who was arrested Tuesday even
ing on charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses from Mrs. Peter
O'Hare widow living in the western
part of ours city was up before Justice
Slater this morning for preliminary
hearing.
The attorneys in the.case were not
ready to go on with the case and a
continuance was taken until next
Thursday. The widow did nor ap-
pear in court but she was in the police
office and was ready if the case was
placed on trial. Van Gasbeck was in
the best of spirits and seemed to fear
very little the outcome of the trial.
He was faultlessly attired and seemed
to be very ..much pleased with the not
oriety that the escapade had gained
for him.
After the trial had been continued
for the week the defendant made an
effort to have the bail reduced but in
this he was unsuccessful and the bail
was left at 5000.
In speaking of the case Van Cas-
beck said he had done nothing more
than any other man would have done
under the same circumstances and
said that his arrest was not due to,
the complaint of Mrs. OHare but to
some of the officials in town who had
grudge against him.
He said while jail life was new to
him he was perfectly comfortable and
desired nothing more unless it was to
have a woman around. The prelimi-
nary examination attracted lots of at
tention and the little court room was
crowded with interested spectators.

one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca

directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,

building up the constitution and as

WOULD PAY ALDERMEN,
AID. weier Thinks They Should Receive
5000 a Year.


There have been many funny things
connected with the present Council,
but rarely was there so funny a joke
as was sprung on the Council last
night when Aid. Weier, of the Second
ward, presented a resolution to the
Council urging that before that honor
able body yielded up their seats to
some new members an appropriation
should be made to reimburse the
aldermen for the work they have done
for the city during the past year. The
alderman very meekly suggested that
he was of the opinion that 5000 would
represent the amount of time and labor
lost by each alderman during the year,
and encouraged by the longing looks
which came from the aldermen about
the room, he put the motion. Every
man in the room was ready to second
the motion of Aid. Weier, when the
chair declared the motion out of order
and before the laughter had subsidized a
motion to adjourn had been carried
and the aldermen had lost their last
opportunity to secure the coveted sal
airy for this year at least.

Senator spooner on the Recent Fight
at Manila.

No person can galnsav our right tC
occupy Manila. We are in Manila to-
day not simply because we captured
the city by force of arms; we are there
by agreement with Spain under the
PROTOCOL
Does any one claim that the insur-
gents ever controlled Manila? When
we went into Manila with our troops,
Spain with her forces went out OF
Manila. Whatever may be said about
this mystical government which some
where outside of Manila is alleged to
have a capital, no man can deny that
the insurgents never had any claim to
power or sovereignty in that city.
It is said that Aguinaldo and his
associates helped us to capture Ma
Mia. I do not stop TO discuss the
question whether that is true or not
1t is quite certain they did not helpOur
navy to destroy the feet of Spain; and
if they did help us to capture Manila, it
only intensified the wantonness and the
willfulness of their present attitude.
We are there by right. We had not
moved our troops beyond the limits
implied or indicated by the protocol
We were there purely upon the defen-
sive, and this attack upon the Ameri-
can army in Manila is, as said before,
as wanton, as willful, as gross a VIOLA
ton of every principle of right and OF
every rule of law as ever was known in
the history of war.
I do not know what motive led to
that attack. That it was premeditated
and general no man, so far as know,
can dispute.
From the information we now have
I affirm that it was premeditated and
wanton, and | believe was inspired
solely with reference to it's effect OF
possible effect upon the action of the
Senate in ratifying or acting upon the
treaty.-The National Magazine.

We clip the following from the Ap
pleton Post:
Tie city of Green Bay has tried
the plan of constructing it's government
on the non partisan plan for several
years and it has yielded very satisfac.
tory results. This year the city O
ManitoWOc proposes to take similar
step. Accordingly, one of its leading
business men, Mr.. William Rahr, has
been invited by his fellow citizens Of
all parties to accept the nomination fol
mayor. He has yielded to their wishes
and therefore there is nothing in the
way of his election. Doubtless also the
city government will otherwise be or
ganized on the non partisan plan and,
if so, the results will probably be as
satisfactory as they have proven in
Green Bay.
The advisability of excluding politics
from local elections is also being con-
sidered in Wausau this year. The
Record, which is the leading Republ-
Can paper there, cordially approves of
the idea. 1t truthfully says there is no
way in which questions that divide
parties in national and state elections
can enter into our municipal elections
The situation in Appleton is about
the same as in Wausau and The Post
is inclined to entertain about the same
view of it as it's contemporary. The
temptation is, of course, when a party
is in local authority for newspaper,
which is its exponent, to go in for the
perpetuatiOn of such authority. But,
on the other hand, it is clear that the
interests of community can be better
subserved when the management of it's
affairs is raised above the level of par
tisan politics and this consideration
should outweigh all others. Even the
same officers who are now elected by
partisan votes would, we believe, be
often more faithful and efficientif they
were responsible to the whole people
instead of to a part of them only. And
certainly public questions and public
acts would be more fairly considered
and Judged under the same conditions. ,
THIS is best of good sense and very
encouraging sign. From it's incipenc.
the NEWS has urged nom partisanshil
in municipal affairs. AS the Recort
we'll says There is no way in which
questions that divide parties in nationa
and state elections can enter int,
municipal elections" The very alb
sence of any issues which involve part,
differences is what renders partisansbi]
in local government dangerous. Cit.
government is largely a matter o
business. Thatit should be conducted
wisely concerns all alike whethe
Republican, Democrat or Populist. tt
insure the safest possible administra
ton of affairs it is necessary that thu
best talent which city affords shoulC
be elected to the places of RESPONSE
bility. No doubt a strictly partisan
vote has sometimes elected the mos
capable city officials, but there is al
little doubt that it has frequently
defeated the best men and imposed
disgrace and disaster upon the city il
order to win or perpetuate party pre-
dominance.
