Heavy Storms and Some Damage.

After a season of drouth that promised
much damage to growing crops short
age Of hay. grain and all crops, thie
section of country has had a reversal of
programIae and week of too much
rain and not little damage in several
ways The downpour Of rain on Friday
morning, Saturday afternoon and eve
ming and again Sunday raised the
streams, and the Kickapoo, Coon and
other less important streams had sudden
and damaging rises. sweeping meadows
of hay in~the cock and injuring that re-
naming uncut, severe washes on plowed
lands. etc.
At Rockton. the east Kickapoo had
an eight foot rise but there was little
or practically no damage TO mill prop
erty at any point on the river. Bridges
were in some instances injured.
Near Ontario, in Brush Creek, James
Rafferty, lost twelve valuable cows by
drowning. A half dozen calves were
loet by others in the same neighborhood
Coon river was on regular old tare,
and we are told that it lacked only a
few inches of going 10 high water mark

rains many times balances the damage

Republicans, Attend the Primary Meetings.

On Saturday, August 4th, the county
convention for the selection of delegates
to attend the state and senatorial con
ventions will be held in Viroqua.

that the caucuses which fall on July
28th, in the several towns and villages
be well attended and representative men
sent to the county conventions, which
in turn should choose representative
citizens and loyal delegates to the in
terests to Je served in state and senator
ial conventions. The county is un-
uuestionably for Robert M. La Toilette
for governor, and men favora 0le to his
cause and the principles represented by
him, as repeatedly endorsed by the re-
publicans of this county, should be sent
to the county convention fne editor
of the CENSOR is a candidate for re
nomination for state senator, and hopes
for an endorsement Of his services and
work in the legislature from his fellow
republicans of the county. He seeks
the customary second term given to all
officials If his votes in the legislature
were not in accord with the best inter
ests of the people and platform pledges
OF the republican party he is not en-
, titled to the usual recognition. On this
score he invites investigation
The new cancus law is perhaps so
well understood by this time that it is
unnecessary to call attention to the
same, yet we do so briefly. Caucuses in
the towns will open at O'Clock in the
afternoon, and in the Incorporated vii
lages at 7:3g in the evening. These
caucuses must be held open at least one
hour and be presided over by a chair
man, have a secretary and two tellers.
The secretary must keep a record of all
votes cast. All ballots shall be either
| written or printed The republicans in

was blowing and all the other buildings
were on the leaward side of the cold

is II Right for an Editor TO Recommend

1t may be question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right TO
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which food the
market, yet as preventive of suffering
we feel it duty to say good word for
Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy. We have known and
used this medicine in our family for 90
years and have always found it reliable.
In many cases dose Of this renedy
would save hours of suffering while a
physician il awaited. We do not believe

fering might be avoided and in very

would not be required. At least this

which will make five tons of the finished

Cultivate Repose.

We as a people need to cultivato more
repose. We live loo intensely. Every
one is on the rush for something. School
children are rushed along in their
studies. Young men are hurried into
business while they are yet boys. Girls
are hurried into society before having
had chance to enjoy their girlhood. 1t
is rush for wealth or political prefer
ment. People rush from one entertain
ment to another. They hurry out to
the country for rest. hurry over the
round of pleasures there otfered and
hurry back to town yet tired but hurry
ing on to something else In trip
abroad, the endeavor is maize TO cover
half the globe in few weeks One has
not really seen anything The result of
all this struggle to get, or to get through
something. is unsatisfactory. Nerve
power breaks down, brain wearies,
bodies are worn out and we are OLD be-
fore the time comes for ii. Cultivate
the habit of repose. Weshall accomplish
more and better work by not under
taking more than we can do and by
being more deliberate about It, Our
pleasures will bring more enjoyment If
we take more time on n few. Recrea-
tione will recreate if not hurried over at
break neck speed We need more time
for genuine recrcetioD. Those simple
pleasures that d. not require too much
exertion, or those which require an ex-
ercise entirely differing from every day
employments, are best And let MS take
time TO think to assimilate some of the
thoughts that come TO us, rather than TO
gorge the mind TO repletion. Mind has
much longer time for growth than the
body. Get the child's body right and
give the mind time. Milwaukee Jour.

The church will stand ON the campus of
the United Norwegian Churchs theo-

located on one of the picturesque knolls
of Prospect Park.
The old church will hardly add to the
architectural beauty of the city, but it
will, nevertheless, attract considerable

into timbers, notched the logs at the
ends, and heaped them, one upon the

building was completed.

important building and the most pre-

said, the initials of the brave men whose
united efforts resulted in the raising of
the church are to be found on the logs,

HOME ENDORSEMENT FOR SENATOR.
[westby Tls0es. May 10. ieCO ]


Among the various candidates seeking
denomination from the republican party
this year, no one is more deserving of a
denomination than Senator O. G. Nun
son. His record as state senator is proof
OF his ability to accomplish what he
wants and his faith illness to party
promises At the beginning of the last
session, he showed his firmness when he
made the motion that all votes for u. S
senator should be taken by roll call and
that each member announce publicly his
choice for senator. This caused storm
of disapproval from parties who wished
to vote in the dark, and did not possess
the moral courage TO vote openly. but
Senator Munson stood firm in spite of
threats and abuses and said Gentle
men it is right that our constituents
should know how we vote and propose
to do what can to make this election
an honent one. This act won for Sena-
tor Munson the respect and admiration
of all who had desire to do what is
just anu right. He is tireless worker,
man Of recognized abilities, always
ready to look after any matter demand
ed by his constituents and always voting
for what he considers right, regardless
of consequences. He has always taken
firm stand in the peoples interest and his
denomination without opposition would
be but fitting endorsement for work
we'll and faithfully performed
