Whiskey Kills Lad.

Tomah, Wis, Oct. 4.-The lit
tie 6 year-old son of George Bro
ply of this place met with a
horrible death last night. The
cause of his death is placed at
whisky poisoning. The boy it is
said, went for ride to his
uncle's farm and as the weather
was very cold, when he reached
there he had chills. tits alleged
that bottle containing a pint of
wiskey was given him. The lit
tie fellow, not knowing any
better and thinking it would
warm him up, drank the entire
contents of the bottle and soon
after became unconscious. He
remained in stupor for over
forty hours, during which time
physicians tried their best to
revive him. Their efforts, how
ever, were useless and the boy
died.
Justice Bartels was called in
and an inquest was held. The
jury adjourned and will secure
further evidence before a verdict
is rendered.

Must Have a Label.

Milwaukee, Oct. 4.-After Nov.
1 the Federated Trades Council
will give news only to union re-
porters and any member who
talks to a ''hireling of the press"
who is not possessor of the
union label blown in the proper
place will be kicked out of the
council and advertised as un-
worthy to associate with union
men.
Milwaukee has writer S union
which will, after Nov. /, have a
monopoly of the gossip that
comes from the meetings of the
federated labor organizations.
There are five members of the
writer's union, four of whom are
employed on a German paper,
and the other on Polish sheet.
Therefore, members of the Fed
Grated Trades Council and their
friends who wish to read the
news about council affairs must
either read Polish or German or
depend upon the non union re-
porters, who will no doubt brace
up and give the English press
some readable stuff after every
meeting, leaving the dull facts,
as "censorized" by the council,
to the boys who have the label.

Clinton, Oct, 9.-The affairs of
the German Exchange bank
seem to be in as precarious a

could not be obtained very soon.

per Management a dividend of 40
per cent could have been declar-

upon charity for aid during the
coming winter. +"
Mr.. Cornell said that he ex-
pected to be released from his
duties as receiver early next
week. There is a possibility
that an order empowering Kleist
to assume control of the assets
will be obtained at Oshkosh to-

will rest until the converting of
the circuit court here next Mon
day. J. E. McMullen, attorney
for Kleist, is at Oshkosh this
week.
There are still many unpaid
drafts on the bank held by par
ties in the county. Receiver

Cure Too Expensive.

Warts are curious things. They
come and go mysteriously, although
their going Is frequently marked by
exasperating delays, and there are al
most as many infallible cures as there
are warts, the only trouble with these
cures being that they are useless when
applied to the particular wart you hap
pen to have. They are only good for
other peoples.

BRYAN REPUDIHTES SFW
WW THE THIRD PARTY.
Nebraskan Declares Nations Best Hope Lies
With Democrats.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 3.-Mr.
Bryan strongly disapproves of the
third-party movement recently be-
gun at Kansas City. He believes
that the nations best hope today
lies in the Democratic party. He
says; "The platform ignores
number of questions which are of
immediate and vital Importance
and enlarges upon some which
have not been discussed or consid-
cred by a majority of the people.
ut is the duty of Il political
party to meet conditions and to
put into practical form the issues
upon which the people are ready
to act.
1.-THE reforms demanded in some
of the planks are substantially rec
ognized in the Kansas City plat
form. The Populist party goes
still further and indorses some
other planks. What necessity is
there for II new party?
"lt takes time to bring about II
great reform, and remedial lcgis-
lation is often delayed by divisions
and subdivisions among the re-
form forces. The time is ripe to
secure the election of Senators by
direct vote of the people, and yet,
just MS this reform comes within
reach, II movement is started,
which, if it has any influence at
all, will delay, if not defeat, this
effort to bring the Government
nearer to the people. Reforms are
secured thru representatives, and
representative must be elected
before they can act officially. A
united and compact minority may,
as it often has, defeat divided
majority.
INDORSES KANSAS CITY PLATFORM.
1.-THE Kansas City platform
placed large body of men and Il
national organization behind a
number of important reforms.
While the party stands true to its
position it affords the best hope
that the masses have of obtaining
relief, and new parties, however
well intended, will rctard rather
than accelerate progress. The
third party, i'll so far as it draws
from the Democratic party, will
encourage rcorganizcrs by lessen
ing the number of reformers in the
party. The rcOrganizers, on the
