CONVINCING PROOF.
The Average Wausau Citizen Must
Accept the Following Proof.

The great Sir Isaac Newton, one of
the most profound reasoners the world
ever produced, once cut a large hole in
board fence to allow favorite cat
access to two gardens, and cut small
ler hole to allow her kittens to follow
her. The weakness manifested. in Sir
lsaac's action was due to want of
thought. Any reader who mentally
debates the proof offered here about
Doan's Kidney Pills and arrives at any
other conclusion than that stated in
this citizens statement, is as short of
reasoning powers as the philosopher
when he turned carpenter.
Mr.. John Smith, of 116 Eveland Court,
Menominee, stationary engineer,
says: II had symptoms of kidney COM
plant for long time and felt that l
ought to do somthing to better my con-
dition. 1t was not serious, yet it an
noyed me greatly especially when l
caught cold, for it always settled in my
kidneys and made my back lame and
sore. 1t was hard for me to get down
to sit in a chair and equally hard to
rise. My back was weak and soon tired
out and ached if / stood long or did
much walking. When:I l saw Doan's
Kidney Pills advertised. to cure such
cases as mine / got a box at drug
store and the remedy did just what was
claimed for it. In a short time all SYM
toms of kidney ailment were removed.
Should it ever return | should look to
Doan's Kidney Pills for relief. l can
confidently recommend them to any
one."
Just such emphatic endorsement can
be had right here in Wausau Drop in
to Albers' drug store and ask what his
customers report.

began to realize on the wealth nature
had,stored up in the great pine forests
of the valley-when it was long jour
ney, long and tedious, to get FROM
Grand Grand Rapids to the upper points
on the Wisconsin riyel-when it took
weeks of weary pulling at the oars and
transporting of provisions and supplies
over the portages-It would hardly
been safe for man to have told those
pioneers that one day they could sit up

the towns down the river. 1t is all

The cause of the fire is unknown.
Many believe that it caught from an

others contend that it originated on the

the stove was not therefore factor in

TELEPHONE CONNECTION.
TomahaWk Now Attached to the Local Line
and Can Be Called Up on Any
Phone in the City.

On Thursday of last week Miss Belle
Thorn, the operator at the Central Office
of the Electric, Water and Telephone
Co. in this city, talked with the tele-
phone operators at Marshield, Grand
Rapids, Wausau, Merrill and interven-
ing towns.
The telephone connections are now
complete between the local company's
toll line to Merrill, thence over the
Merrill Telephone Co.'S lines to Wau-
sau, and the line between that city and
Marshfield, connecting there with the
Wood County Telephone Co.'s line to
Grand Rapids. These lines are outside
of the big Bell Co.'S long distance lines
and are independent of the Bell Co.'s
state system.
This telephone connection between
Tomahawk and the cities and towns of
the lower valley may be noted as one
of the achievements of the last days of
the century that is leaving us. We
have become so accustomed to the
daily use of the telephone in almost all
the affairs of business and social life
that we rarely give thought to what a
wonderful thing it is to sit in an office
in Tomahawk and practically annihi-
late time and space by calling up Cen

AFTER THE SOUTH.

Senator Hoar. of Massachusetts,, Is
an orator and builder Of fine speeches.
He is a favorite with some southern
wisdom or sense OF Justice He has a
bill in the United States Senate to give
the trial of all lynchers to the United
States courts. taking them out Of the
jurisdiction Of state courts. This is
wrong. and another evidence that re-
regard for limitations of power for the
General Government. The Baltimore
sun says. and 1t shows I'D Hoar in his
favorite role of inconsistency and flop
ping:
There is no more reason why the
federal courts should be vested with
Jurisdiction in lynching cases than that
thew should be authorized TO try MUIR
der cases of n other violations Of the
'aw. Lynching is a crime with. which
the state courts are fullv competent to
deal. 1t is true that convictions are
Iare. but it is not probable that the re-
suit would be materially different If
the state court were deprived Of juris-
diction and the cases were turned over
20 the federal courts fol trial. The peo-
re of the several states have good
ground for Directing to any extension
Of the power of the federal courts. Mr.
Hoar was an earnest and eloquent de-
fender of the rights of the Filippinos
under the federal constitution"
The punishment for lynching is death.
sui what is to be lone with the
rapists: Grant them a medal. Hoar
has been after the south before. 1t is
an old game with him.

WHO GOT THE PRIZE MONEY.

The prize money that was gathered
from the spells at Santiago very natur-l
allv excites Sampson who
did not fight at all got the lions share
while Schley. the real hero. got but al
r:ltance. The Washington Post has
published the official figures. so we can
n)t be mistaken as to 10Y the money
divided and who reaped the most from
the Schley victory. The figures in the
Post give both Dewey'5 great victory as
we'll as Schley's great victory at Santi-
ago. Sampson was In neither fight. Not
a gun on his own ship was fired nor
was he in either battle. What right
had he to "spoils?" Why should a fell
low ten miles away get a big part Of
the bounty and prize money? But he
ala get it and it was big money" at
that. He has already drawn prize
money amounting to SOS. 794.A and ex-
rects about s10,0 900 more when the
Maria Teresa case is settled. The man

Captain F. E. Chadwick, who was in
command Of SIMPSONS flagship. the
New York. He has been paid s14,O26.OS.
and expects to get some $4,000 more out
Ct the Maria Teresa case. Neither
Sampson nor Chadwick had any part
in the battle. as is we'll known. They
were ten miles away when the Spanish
ships came out Of the harbor n were
sunk.
And this is the way bOul:ties and
prize moneys are distributed bv the
naval department as o supervised
and trusted.
What has Admiral Schley. the real
hero of the fight received. and the
actual and only commander? He has
received all told to date s149.13. and

WHOLESOME TARIFF TALK.

Now and her you see in a northern
an editorial or communica-
ton tina indicates that all the north
is not hitched on to the car of greed
and selfishness. There are pleasant in
dications that freedom of thought n
of action is still regarded and insisted
upon as a right of freemen even in a
million of dollars and cents. To be
more particular. The republican party
leaders have created a fetch all Over
the north as to the sacredness of the
present high protective robber tariff tax
that is levied upon 72,O 900, 900 of people
for the benefit of not more than 5000, 600
If so many. 1t is regarded now as a
positive crime for any newspaper or
politician or member of the congress to
dare to advocate a revision or a reduc-
ton Of the present grinding monster of
oppression. And strange to say there
are fellows in the south who are in
love with the monster and would think
it awful to touch it AMI shorten it's days.
This fetch has complete hold of repub-
lican leaders now. and they worship it
in fear and trembling lest some ur-
hallowed hands should be laid upon
their idol. They are afraid of a change
or of any "trickering'' or of any agita-
ton whatever for reform or modiica-
ton.

tariff. Tt says Of Roosevelts attribute

If he will only have a little reflection he
