store is new and bright with coat
of fresh paint.
One of the most striking changes
made by paint in the business part
of the city during the season is the

The east and north sides have been
painted in Milwaukee brick color and
the change is quite pleasing.

the johnson hatel. He was taken i'll
with malaria fever and died after
two weeks sickness. His father was
communicated with, but he wrote

At least 70 per cent of the Grand
Army men employed in the Chicago
postoffice will vote for Bryan this year.
This estimate and forecast is taken
from an informal canvass made of the
veterans by some active Grand Army
men among them. There are more than
2oo old Union soldiers working for tie
government there, and of these, it is
said, $50 at the lowest estimate yet
made, will vote for Bryan.
1--WE do not like favoritism that dis
eliminates against Grand Army men, :"
said one of the veterans. who has been
employed in the postoffice for nearly a
dozen years. what Is more objection
able to US in the postoffice manage
ment," he continued, sis the way the
war veterans are treated with con-
tempt by upstairs who have passed
over them TO higher positions. 1t has
got to be common saying around the
office that our Grand Army badges are
our only capital, our only means Of
holding a job While this sort of talk
does not interfere with our work and
does not affect our places here, it is, to
say the least, offensive and hardly the
sort OF treatment that should find en-
ccuragement from Republican admin

a Maater stroke Of Comnromise.

We confess our utter inability to I'M
derstand the curious plea put forth by
the State Department that, while the
United States surrender not single
inch of territory by this provisional
line, Great Britain surrenders nine
teen-twentieths of ''the land in dis
pute," and that the modus viyendi
is accordingly another diplomatic vic
tory for Secretary Hay. 1t is very
much as if Great Britain, in behalf of
Canada, should suddenly demand re-
adjustment of the Maine boundary at
the northwest, claiming all of New En-
gland and part Of New York up to the
line of the Hudson River and Lake
Champlain, and as if Mr.. Hay should
agree to provisional boundary at the
Penobscot River and along its east
branch to the Schoodic lakes and
should then announce his readiness to
receive congratulations on having in
duced Great Britain TO surrender nine
teen-twentieths of tho land in dispute,
at the same time removing a source of
irritation in the relations of the two
countries.-New York Sun.
