To The Villas County Voters.

The question of who shall Adj
minister the Affairs Of Nation,
State and County, is to be set
tied before our next issue.
This is our last issue before the
great questions before the Ameri-
can people will be decided. The
real issue, and the one which
every voter should carefully con-
slider before casting his ballot on
November 9th, is, shall the pres
ent Republican administration
by William Mckinley, under
which every industry and all
classes Of people have prospered
be continued for four years more
or shall the governmental affairs
be turned over to William Bry-
an, who in 1896 said: THE
GOLD STANDARD MEANS DEARER
MONEY; DEARER MONEY MEANS
CHEAPER PROPERTY; CHEAPER
PROPERTY MEANS HARDER TIMES;
HARDER TIMES MEANS MORE PEG
PIE OUT OF WORK; MORE PEOPLE
OUT OF WORK MEANS MORE PEG
PIE DESTITUTE; MORE PEOPLE
DESTITUTE MEANS MORE PEOPLE
DESPERATE, AND MORE PEOPLE
DESPERATE MEANS MORE CRIME. =
Every voter in Villas County
knows that not one Of these dole
ful predictions made by Mr.. Bry-
an in 1896 has been verified.
Every promise made by the Re-
publicans i'll 1896 has been car
RED out with the result that
every prophesy as to the condi-
tons that would follow has PROV
en- true. Every laboring man in
this County knows that there
never was a time in the history
of this country when so many of
the necessaries of life could be
purchased for a days labor as
during the past two years. Mr..
Bryan has proven himself a false
prophet in the past, and we
have no reason to believe his
predictions as to the future. The
laboring men of this country
voted away prosperity in 1892,
and we believe and hope that
they will not do likewise on No
vember 9th, but will cast their
vote for William Mckinley and
the entire Republican ticket.

The Men to Vote For.
FOR CONGRESS


w E. Brown should be your choice.
Here is what a prominent Democrat
of Merrill said in the hearing Of the
Advocate reporter: HE is the best
man for the office, and I am going
to do all can to elect him, ? continu-
ed our friend. Yes, Mr.. Brown is the
best man for representative. Being a
business man he understands what
the districts needs, and he is abund-
antly supplied with energy 50 that he
will secure about what the people
want. Mr.. Browns candidacy APP
peals forcible to laboring men. He is
a large employer of labor, but we
have yet to hear that he has ever had
any trouble with his employees. Mr..
Brown is an educated man, and a
man of affairs. It is such men as
Brown, aided by intelligent working
men, that makes this country pros
per and grow. Hurrah for Brown,
and let Villas County give him big
majority over his opponent.
STATE SENATOR.
D. E. Riordan, who is the Repu bill
can nominee for Senator should be
elected to this Office. Its to be borne
in mind that the state senator now to
be chosen will remain in position for
four years and hence will have voice
in the selection of a United States
senator to succeed John G. Spooner
And to that end the utmost energy
should be exerted by the Republicans
Of this district to make Mr.. Riordan's
election certain. Mr.. Riordan is well
worthy of the suffrages Of his fellow
citizens OF Republicans particularly
because he has ever been loyal to the
party and it's principles and has al
ways contributed his full share Of eff
fort to the triumph Of both. And Of
his Democratic neighbors because he
has never been an offensive parti-
san. He commands the confidence
Of one and all because throughout his
entire caree no one has ever had oc-
casion to doubt his strict integrity.
His majority in Villas county, all
things considered, should not, and we
believe will not, fall below SEQ.

SHERIFF.

The candidacy Of Joe Elliott for
sheriff on the republican ticket is in
every way a suitable one. He has
been chairman OF his town, supervi-
sor, chairman Of the board Of superyl-
sors and county clerk, and in all po-
sitions has proved himself a conser-
yatiye and worthy officer. He is just
the man for sheriff, and sheriff he will

who will roll up large majority for
him. He is a working man and is
well qualified to fill the Office and will
attend to it himself
DISTRICT ATTORNEY.
Geo. E. 0'Connor, the Republican
candidate for District Attorney,
should receive the support of all for
this office. He is graduate of the
Law School at Madison and has been
praotioing his profession in the courts
for the past two years with success.
In voting for Geo. and electing him
you will have a careful and painstak-
ing lawyer, a man who will see that
justice and truth prevails. In mark
ing an x below his name you'll make
no mistake.
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS.
This is an Office that should be Civ
en- to one who has the knowledge and
the experience, and in this case all
who have children to educate should
cast their ballot for Alexander Hig-
gins the Republican nominee, as he
has both Of these qualifications. Mr..
Higgins has been county superinten-
dent Of schools every since the coun-
ty has been organized, and it is by
has hard work, push and energy that
our schools have been brought up to
there high standard. Our schools
will compare favorablY with other
schools in the different counties and
for these and other reasons Mr.. Hig-
gins should be continued in office.
Therefore voters of Villas county see
to it that Mr.. Higgins is reelected.

settler in the county. While the office
of Coroner is an important one if not
a very good paying one, the republic
cans have put a good man on the
ticket and we expect to see Jim and

With little wee hands that aimlessly go
Hither and thither and to and fro;
With little, feet that shall lead himf God
knows,
But prayer from my heart like benson coca
Bundle Of helplessness, yonder he lies
What is the dream in my baby's eyes2
What does he wonder and what does he know
That we have forgotten long, long ago?
Bathed in the dawn light, what does he see
That slow years have hidden from you and met
Out Of the yesterday seeth he yet
The things that in living he soon shall forget,
All that is hidden beyond the blue skies.
What is the dream in my baby's eyesf
Speak to me, little one, ere you target
What is the thought that is lingering there yet.
Where is the land where the yesterdays meet,
Waiting and waiting the morrows to greet?

What do you wonder, and what do you thinkf

"A Curious Shoe Trust

Doylestown has four odd characters
who pool their issues in buying shoes.
They all have the same sized foot, and
each regards this fact in the nature of
libel perpetrated upon him by the
other three. Every year each one of
the quartet chips in $1S, and the fund
Of $72 is expended for shoes. Buying
them in such quantities there is natu-
rally reduction in price. One would
think that there would be an equal di-
vision of the shoes, but that isn't their
little game.
The shoes are owned collectively,
share and share alike, and when not
being worn they are kept in a closet in
the express Office, which is the general
lounging place of the quartet. If one
man wants to wear new shoes, he goes
to the express office and puts them on.
If he wears russets in the daytime and
wants to wear patent feathers in the
evening, he goes to the express Office
and makes the change. They have
been doing this for several years and
claim they wouldn't wear shoes in any
other way.-Philadelnhia Record.
