Herman B. DAZZLE, the congressman
from this district, whose likeness we
print herewith, is an example Of the
business man in congress and the
work he has done for the dairy in
terest Of Wisconsin is proof of the
often repeated saying that more bust
ness men are needed in legislative
halls, and especially in congress-
An overwhelming majority Of the men
inucongress are lawyers, and that
fact if often noticed when good bills
are defeated on purely technical
grounds. The good work which Con-
gresham Dahle did for the dairymen
during the recent session of congress
could only have been done by bust
ness man familiar with the dairy
business. a lawyer in the same posi-
ton could not have done what Mr..
Dahle was able to do.
Congressman DAZZLE is a native of
Wisconsin, and was born in Dane
county forty seven years ago, and has
lived there ever since. He is a banker
and a merchant by occupation, and
has had remarkably successful bust
ness career. He obtained his educa-
ton in the public schools of his county
and the University of Wisconsin, which
he attended three years. Up to the
time he came forward as candidate for
congress two years ago, Mr.. DAZZLE had
never been candidate for any office,
except one time when he ran for the
legislature. He has always, however.
been a consistent Republican, and has
supported the Republican ticket ever
since he became voter. He is a
member of one Of the best known fami-
lies in Dane county.
Aside from being Republican, and
standing for sound money, Mr.. Dahle

The idea of demand underlying the
notion that the free coinage of silver
gould raise the value of silver is
based upon the supposition that the
government would buy silver under
free coinage, which it would not do;
ct would mel ely coin the silver offered
40 it by individuals; and that a de-
Enand, even were that created, would
raise the value of silver materially SIS
GIscredited by the fact that during all
Ghe years when the government, I'M
der the Bland-Allison and Sherman
acts, was buying vast quantities OF
silver the price Of the metal continued
fo decline.

has a claim on the people of the dis
trict for reelection on the ground of
his good work for the Circuit anti Oleo-
margarine bill which was before the
last session Of congress, and is set for
passage December 3 of the next ses-
sion. This bill aims to protect the
dairy farmers from competition with
imitation butter, and protects the con-
sumer from being given Oleomargar-
inc, when he believes he is buying
butter. Millions of pounds of cleo
margarine are sold every year in the
United States to people who are pay
ing for butter and believe they are
getting butter. This is a serious in
jury to the butter-producing farmers.
and at the same time is a serious in
jury to the public which is paying a
butter price for cheaper article.
Mr.. DAZZLE was member of the
committee on agriculture which had
this bill before it, and though a ma jOr-
ity of the committee were against the
bill, Mr.. DAZZLE in connection with a
few more friends Of the dairymen, cot
the bill reported for passage just be-
fore congress adjourned. Those who
watched the fight for the Circuit bill
last winter gave Congressman Dahle
credit for making one of the best and
most successful fights ever made for a
measure before congress. Gen. Hen
derson, speaker OF the house of repre-
sentatives, in a recent speech in Madi-
son, gave Mr.. DAZZLE credit for having
done more than any other man in con-
gress TO bring the members of the
committee together on this bill, and to
secure the unanimously favorable re-
port which was made, and which in
sures the passage Of the bill at the
next session.

<sTHE most perniciOus error that
has ever found currency in this
country, next after the doctrine Of
the right of secession, is the theory
that it is the duty, or function, or
prerogative of the government to
furnish money to the people. It is
necessary that the law shall fix a
standard of value; otherwise there
would be no uniform rule for the en-
forcement of contracts. That it does
by enacting that the dollar shall be the
unit Of value and shall consist of 25. s
grains of gold, nine-tenths fine. The
law could stop there, and leave US
TO test our own gold and weigh it in
scales as they used to do in the days
of Abraham. TO save US that trouble
and uncertainty the government takes
oar gold and divides it into pieces con-
4aining five, ten or twenty dollars each,
anu SGdulpS Oh each piece TIE HunOeI'
OF dollars which it contains. This
stamp is simply the certificate Of the
government that the piece contains so
many grains of gold of certain fine
ness. That saves US the trouble of test
ing and weighing our gold every
n mir rn

OBITUARY..

The many friends and neigh bOrS OF
Isaac w. Ramsey, a former resident
of the town of Clyman, will be panied
to learn of his death, which occurred
last Sunday evening at Lyons. Neb.
after a brief illness. The sad in
formation reached the Wisconsin re-
latives on Monday, but at this writing
no cause of death can be stated. The
deceased was a son of the late Alex
ander Ramsey, a pioneer of Clyman
who died in April, 1895, and was born
on the old homestead, March 20,
1854, being therefore in his forty
seventh year. About a year after his
fathers death, Mr.. Ramsey. with his
sister, Miss Maggie, went to Nebraska
and occupied a large farm near the
place above stated. He was unmar-
ried. Three brothers, A. A. Ramsey,
and S. n. Ramsey, of Rogersville,
and ID. l.. Ramsey, of Fond du Lac,
and two sisters, Mrs. Annie Preston,
! of Oakland Neb., and Miss Maggie,
survive him.
Mr.. Ramsey was a gentleman Of
strong character, truehearted, up
right and honest as the day was long.
A large circle of acquaintance can
bear witness to his worth as a neigh
Dor and friend, and his untimely death
will be generally regretted in the
community.
The remains were brought here at
$3.50 this afternoon and inferred in
the family lot in Oak Hill cemetery.
Services at the grave were conducted
by Rev. A. M. Bullock, of the M. E.
church. The pallbearers were: James
Roy, and A. A. Hardie, of this city;
James BOnnell, John Cruel and James
COughlin, of Clyman; w. j. Williams,
CT Emmett.

MR.. BRYAN says he stands now just
where he stood four years ago on
the currency question, Therefore he
Is pledged in the event of his election
to force silver dollars into circulation
by paying them out to the public
creditors and to get the minis opened
so the free coinage of silver as soon
as congress will act. The panic Of 1898
was caused by the fear that the exhaus-
sion of the treasury's stock Of gold,
which was fast diminishing, would
leave the treasury nothing but silver
dollars, and notes which it would not
have the means of redeeming, for the
payment Of its obligations. Mr..
Bryan is distinctly pledged to do that,
the mere apprehension of which pre-
cipitated the panic Of 1898
