DR.. Llewellyn Jordan, Medical Examiner
Of U. S. Treasury Department, graduate Of
Columbia College, and who served thres
years at West Point, has the following To
say Of Peruna:
"Allow me to express my gratitude
TO you for the benefit derived from
your wonderful remedy. One short
month has brought forth a vast change
and ! now consider myselfa we'll man
after months of suffering. Fellow
sufferers, Peruna will cure YOU"
Catarrh is a systemic disease curabla
only by systematic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the depressed nerve ~centers. This is what
Peruna does. Peruna Immediately invigor-
ates the nerve-centers which give vitality to
the mucous membranes. Then catarrh dis
appears. Then catarrh is permanently cured.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever located
Peruna is not a guess nor an experiment~it
is an absolute scientific certainty. Pernn2
has no ubstitutes-no rivals. Insist pom
having Peruna.

II good senator or good congress-

been by the politicians and by rival
aspirauts rather than by the feeple
whom they have represented. 1T Is
not so much party constituents that
faithful public officer has reason to
fear as 1t Is rival politicians and fac
tional jealousies. Indeed, not long
ago the Milwaukee Sentinel printed
an editorial setting forth as one o!
the strong objections to the primary
election principle, that "A man once IN

tinuation in that Office and bad "A
great advantage over all other aspir-
ants by reason of the fact that he
would be better known by the voters
of his party than any new man or all
the new men who could aspire to the
same position. In fact here is where
part of the machine came in which
the anti-machine ca Sentinel has
been 50 alarmed about. As an illus
tration the Sentinel said that under
the primary election system man
like w. l.. Douglas whose shoe adj
vertisement appears in almost every
newspaper in the United States,
would be more likely to be nominated
for president by direct vote than Il
man like Mckinley, because people
would be 50 familiar with his name.
This is not very complimentary to
the intelligence Of the American peo-
pie in distinguishing between shoe
maker and statesman, but 1T
served as Il very extravagant Illus
tration to point moral and adorn n

come a system whereby their faith
fulness woull be requited and the
gratitude of an admiring constituent

question naturally arises, why would
these senators not prefer to take
their chances with tho people rather
than with the Legislators nominated
and Influenced by ambitious and
perhaps rival politicians who are
constantly setting up the pins to get
somebody out and somebody else in?
Where do Senators Spooner and

No Taxation Reform.

1t is practically settled that the
present legislature will pass no blii
to secure more equitable distribution
of the burdens of taxation, although
the republican state platform strong
ly pledged the party to such actloh'
and the people by 100000 majority
endorsed that pledge. The state
tax commission, after two years
faithful and intelligent research, rec
ommended action that undoubtedly
would have measurably met pup
lie expectation. These reeommen-
dations are disregaded by the legis-
lature, more credence being given
to the arguments aud representa-
tions of hired attorneys OF capitals
tic interests than TO the carefully
prepared statements and pertinent
facts submitted by an able and adj
mitedly honest board appointed and
sworn to deal justly with all the
people, rich and poor alike. one
more such legislature as that now IN
session, and the 100000 republican
majority will have disappeared en-
tjrely.

certain that no primary election law
will be enacted at the present SEES

name of a primary election law, and

The reckless Legislature passed a
bill granting all street railway com
panics the right to endow their em-
ployes with police powers equal to
that of sherltls, coustables and po-
licemeu. GOV. LaFollette vetoed the
measure as class legislation, uucon-
stitutional and dangerous. The press
OF the state generally applauds the
veto, but the Milwaukee Sentinel and
Journal, loyal to their owners, the
street railway company of Milwau-
kee, condemn il. Most of the state
papers agree with the Appleton Post
that: "ll the powers contemplated
by the measure vetoed by the Gov
ernor were given to- street railway
companies they could not be logical
iy denied To other companies. The
billion dollar steel trust, for instance,
would, with the precedent estab-
iished doubtless soon be hot after
similar privileges, and likewise all
the other trusts, with which the
country is plastered over, including
the labor trust also. Thus we should
have the state abdicating one of its
most important functions in favor Of
private interests, responsible, not To
the state, but each to itself only--a
confession that the state is made
qunte or unwilling TO protect all alike
in the exercise of their rights, which

WILLIAM PAINTER.

Last Thursday afternoons, while at
work in his diggings, Mr.. William
Paynter was seized with paralysis.
He was carried to his home and
a physician called Immediately.
Everything that loving wife aud
children could suggest and medical
skill could accomplish, was done for
his relief; but in vain. He fingered
n semi-comatose state until the fol-
lowing evening, when the last vital
spark f1ickered out and at nine
o'clock, April Goth he had ceased to
live.
Mr.. Paynter was of the sturdy
stock of Cornish miners that early
left their homes in Cornwall, Eng
land, and have done so much to
develop the mineral wealth of
Southwest Wisconsin. He was born
in 1884, and in lS4S came with his
parents to Mineral Point, where he
has made his home since. In 1882
he married Miss Jane Jacka, who
survives him. There were Il chill
dren born TO them, eleven of whom
remain to comfort the widow.
Mr.. Paynter was respected as an
honorable, exemplary citizen From
early manhood an active, Jealous
member of the =. NJ. church, where
funeral services were held for him
on Monday, when the pastor, Rev. j.
Hardcastle admirably used the ex-
cellent examples of Mr.. Paynter's
christian life for the encouragement
and comfort Of the large concourse
of mourning relatives and friends
present.
