Inc State Department has rendered an
opinion TO the effect that the United
states Government cannot intervene In
favor of Porto Rico in the matter of her
claims against Cuba for s2,5000O0. The
Spanish Government raised loan to this
amount from Porto Ricans to help prose-
cute military operations in Cuba, basing
the loan upon the revenues of the latter
island. To sanction the collection OF this
claim against Cuba now would be to open
the door to numberless other and larger
claims, which would exhaust the financial
resources OF the island.

FIRST DISTRICT CONVENTION.

DAY. Sullivan, of Mosinee, was in the
city yesterday on business. Dav. is a
square man in every particular and
viii not be trifled with. He attended
the First District Republican Assembly
Convention, held at Poniatowski last
Friday, and from his account of the
affair it must have been interesting
from start to finish. Dave figured be-
forehand that the delegation which
would be sent from the First District
would be for La Toilette, but the affair
was in the hands of Mcmillan ct. al,
and the one man whom Dav. relied on
to help him out was Gil. Wander
cook. Gil had three votes all for
La Toilette, but for some reason (Which
seems to be known by Sullivan) Gil. did
not show up, and for his failure so to
do an anti-La Toilette delegation was
elected. Sullivan's opinion of Gil. Van
dercook, especially, and several others,
who used anything but fair means to
beat the La Toilette men, is anything
but complimentary. 1t is interesting
to hear Dav. tell about how that con-
yention was conducted Such men as
Mcmillan, Vandercook, Chesak and
others received a severe tongue flashing
from him and he knows how to do it up
brown.

SOMETHING VERY FINE.
The Sentiners Century Edition of the
Wisconsin River Valley.

For two weeks the Milwaukee Senti-
nel's Century Edition of the Wisconsin
River Valley has been in press; it is
being printed on calendered paper,
which necessitates its being run off on
special presses for that kind of work.
1t will contain ten pages with a beauti-
fully colored cover and will be issued
on the 9Th of August. We have been
shown the advance sheets and can en-
dorse it as something very fine. 1t con-
tains pictures of institutions, public and
private. The statistics will surprise
even the most optimistic. 1t is shown
by the figures on the resources of the
valley that there are more than six mil
lions of dollars employed between
Grand Rapids and Eagle River in the
banks alone. With the exception of
Merrill and Tomahawk, the work has
been done bv l.. A. Rose, and it will be
credit to him.

discoverer is woman, and i'll closing
this part of the address he said
As woman was last at the cross and
first at the sepulchre; as woman was
the holy messenger to proclaim risen,
triumphant Savior, so now, in the
opening splendors of His kingdom or
earth, woman, another Mary, is the
sweet messenger of s'glad tidings."
His closing remarks must be quoted
in full as they;oontained the gist of his
address. "One brief. word and l viii re-
lease your patience. If you should ask
me to state in, single sentence what
Christian Science is, living as | do in
the abiding conviction that for every
breath | have drawn for 10 years | am
indebted wholly indebted to Christian
Science, and knowing as do hundreds
upon hundreds of my fellow men who
have been taken by this science from
the very shifting sands of the grave
back to their homes and loved ones,
back to health and hope and love and
song, in the plentitude of the good that
has come to me and to the world
through this revelation of truth by the
most marvellous woman of this most
marvellous century, | would answer
your question by saying Christian
Science is the star that kept holy guard
over the babe in the manger; it is the
hand clap of the mountains where Jesus
was born; it is the song of the sops of
God welcoming the Saviour of the world:
it is love by love begotten, hope by hope
lifted up, sympathy by sympathy
awakened; it dwells in the tear of pity
and sparkles on the. dimpled cheek of
beauty; it exhales the fragrance CT
flowers and reflects the splendor of the
star; it is tie sweet voice of the great
God speaking in the pnHofsal language
of love and kindness to every weary
child of earth. May we not in wisdom
hearken TO that voice today, satisfied
indeed with whatever this world may
bring if happily in the opening splen-
doris of the other we may hear it again,
saying of each one of us and of all we
love: 'These are they who come up
through great tribulation and have
washed their robes and made them
white in the blood of the Lamb

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
The Delegates Elected to Attend the
State Convention in Milwaukee.

The two districts of Marathon county
might as well be a hundred miles apart,
as far as the republicans here are con-
cerned. The two factions do not seem
to hitch and are not feeling quite
friendly toward each other. On Friday
each district held its convention for the
purpose of selecting delegates to send
to Milwaukee. The first district, thai
part of the county west of the river,
held its convention in Poniatowski and
chose the following gentleman as dele
gates w. A. Pradt, Geo. Kreutzer,
Gas. Hackbody, b. F. Mcmillan, C. c..
Barrett, Geo. Fenrick and Frank
Chesak. Without exception they are
anti LaFolle,te men aud are willing to
fight that issue to finish
AT the same time the second district
republicans were holding their meeting
in this city and they chose all LaFollette
men without an exception. Their dele
gates are H. F. McEachron. K. H. John
son, NJ. c. Thorn, John Wolf, Aug.
Kroening. Aug, RanIthun. ChaS, GueE-
Their. Geo Werheim and Ed. Hsiman
Strange to say only seven townships of
the second district were represented,
besides the wards of the city, which
would go to prove that the republicans
of the county can not take much inter
est in the issue or else there are no
republicans there.

WILDER JAMES
Death of One of the Brightest Young
Men Wausau has Produced.

On Friday last WILDER Z. James
passed away at his home at Monroe,
Wis. The news of his death was re-
ceived' here the same day and caused
profound sorrow among his multitude
of friends. 1t was known only to few
that he was seriously i'll and his re-
covery was earnestly hoped for. He
was taken sick only week before his
death and his illness developed into a
malady that was pronounced brain
fever by his physician. His condition,
instead of improving, grew constantly
more alarming and a consultation of
physicians was held, when it was
found that he was suffering from clot
on the brain. Everything was done to
relieve him, but nothing ayailed, and
death occurred, hardly week from the
time he was stricken. His brother,
E. M. James, of this city, had fastened
to Monroe, when he heard of Wilber's
illness, and was present when he passed
away.
There is no young man that has ever
lived in Wausau, whose demise could
occasion more sincere regret among all
classes, than has the death of WILDER
James. Although born near Columbus,
the latter years of his life have nearly
all been spent here, where his unset
fish disposition and kind heart have
made him liked by everyone. He
learned the lumber business with the
Jacob Mortenson Lumber Co., and for
several years held a responsible position
with them. For some time he was one
of their travelling lumber statesmen, and
while on the road no one was more
popular with fellow travellers or with
dealers than was he. At one time he
was also engaged in partnership with
his brother, E. M. James, in the book
and stationery business. Everyone
with whom he came into contact was
Immediately impressed by his unvary-
ing cheerfulness, good humoPand kind
ness, and not an enemy can be recorded
against his entire stay in Wausau.
In October 1898 WILDER James was
married to Miss Elizabeth Rodrick and
for the past year they have made their
home in Monroe. In that city he en-
gagged in the retail lumber business,
handling also lime, salt and other
staples, in which his able and honorable
h,,c 1itioO hox do Him
tremely successful In Monroe his
brother, Chas. James, resided and the
burial was held there, the ceremony
taking place on Sunday. Besides
his wife, he leaves an infant daugh-
ter, who is now not quite one.
year DID, Mr. James was just
thirty-three years old and was the
youngest of four brothers. His aged
father survives him and besides the
brothers already mentioned there is
another, Emmett James, who lives in
the west
That WILDER James is dead is fact
which his friends here can hardly real
ize. If it can be said that he was more
heartily liked in certain circles than in
others, the young people must have
that honor. 1t seemed that he could
never be out of sorts or in poor spirits.
He was never anything but cheerful
and pleasant, and many will look back
with pleasure to particularly bright
evenings when WILDER James was in
the party. Yet he was alike to all.
He knew no rich or poor, for all were
the same to him, and all will feel equal
ly the sorrow of his death.
