SONS OF HERMAN
RETURN TO THE
NATIONAL FOLD.

Fred Borcherdt and E. A. Rauber at
tended the CONVENTION Of the Sons of
Herman in Neenah which was held on
Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Fred
says the delegates were royalty treated
and he had so much fun that a freight
locomotive could hardly haul it. He
also says the Wisconsin Sons of Herman
which separated from the National or
ganization more than seven years ago
have patched up a peace and the state
society has been swallowed up by the
national body. All that the Wisconsin
members contended for has been allowed.

JOHN SCHUETTE
IN OPPOSITION.
Makes Argument Against Heavy
Dredging Expenses.
WORK WILL COST ABOUT 100000.
City'S Estimate For the Same Was
Only $4,000.
NO NECESSITY FOR DREDGING NOW
Impossible to Earn Enough From the Win
ter Fleet TO Pay Any Sort of Div.
dend on 100000

John Schuette appeared before the
city council and opposed the dredging
of the river on the ground that the
work would cost 5000 0G0 aud the bene-
fits to be derived would not be adequate.
Mr. Schuette said:
When the citizens meeting was held
to discuss harbor extension. | believed
those speaking in favor of it, had in
mind to dredge Il channel at a moderate
cost, never suspecting it would he
dredged up to the glue factory and be-
sides having it dredged the whole width
of the river, and locked on both sides,
which would involve the enormous ex-
pense of $500, 900 All will admit that
the city and dock owners have been
very liberal in expenditures in making
this one of the best harbors on the
lakes
owe have now over two miles of
locked river fronts, several turn basins,
aud sufficient depth and room for the
largest vessel on the lakes 10 land at
any Of our now existing industries, and
as far as shipping is concerned, we are
ahead of them all aud when the time
does arrive, when new industries locate
here where dredging and docking is re-
CURED, we will not be backward to
meet them. but to do it now at an enor
nous expense seems too great sacri-
flee for the little prospective benefits,
The city's part of the proposed work
will nearly reach $4,000 the docking
of about 10 lots about $3.50, 900 more,
a grand total of approximately 5000 900
and the annual expense for repairs or
depreciation at 10 per cent would be
$50, 600 each year, Now lei us see what
will be the benefit and who will get it?
1t is said we can offer strange vessels.
which do not hail from here or pay tax
es here, a free winters berth. How
many if any would avail themselves of
our 5000 600 berths no one knows.
I'VE should encourage our elevators
and give them all reasonable assistance
but it seems that the expenditure of so
large an amount would be far out of
proportion to the benefit In case some
of the owners can not go to the expense
of repairing the DOCK, rather abandon
ing the property, then the city will have
to do the work, as it did in some cases
in the past, charge it against the lot and
finally get the title under tax deed,
and no one can tell whether the city
may not get title to most of the 10 lots,
as they will not be worth the cost of
docking and in this manner might have
to provide for nearly the whole outlay,
which would reach nearly $500, 600 in
stead of $50, 900 If we feel like spend
ing $500 600 for our general advance
ment there are many other ways by
which this can be accomplished with
far more certain results.

SENATOR VEST MAKES
A PLATFORM FOR
DEMOCRATIC PARTY

Senator &. Vest recently said the prin-
of 1901 should be-
First-A declaration for graduated
income tax
Second An unrelenting opposition to
trusts.
Third-A declaration against imper-
ialism and the colonial system,
1t would be suicidal said the sena-
tor to thrust the silver issue forward
again
He said further:
IF | could write the platform without
the Intervention of any new issue would
declare:
First For graduated income tax,
which is the fairest and most equal sys-
TEN of taxation ever invented Our
present system of national taxation in
the shape of internal revenue and tariff
duties makes the poor man pay the ex-
penses of the government, while the
multi millionaire, who consumes neither
beer nor whiskey, and imports nothing
from Europe except clothing, pays moth
ing.
But in the event of war the poor
man fights for the millionaire dollars
belonging to the plutocrat, who is now
exempt from taxation.
Second i would make the principal
issue of the campaign Of 1904 stern aud
unyielding opposition to the trusts and
syndicates which are now crushing ont
individual enterprise of the country.
Ten years ago young man with
So, 900 or $50, 600 capital could start in
some legitimate business with fair
chance of success, bnt now he has no
more chance against the trusts than an
| infant against the champion prize fight
er of the world.
Il was told recently by a prominent
broker of New York city, u very earnest
Republican, that nine men in New York
four of whom J. Pierpont Morgan,
George Gould, John ID, Rockefeller and
James J. Hill control the finances of the
United States, and, as he expressed it,
no one could go into new enterprise
or remain in an old one without the con.
sent of those men.
Third would declare against inn
perialism and the colonial system. For
II while this issue was before the com
| try in 1900.
The senator repeats the assertion of
his belief that William ]. Bryan is re.
sponsibie for the ratification Of the Paris
! treaty, which resulted in the present
colonial policy.

i wish to remind you that the state

The competition is solely in the north
I'm counties. The southern 20 counties
are SO badly crippled with the drought
shat they cannot survive this season
The Manitowoc county fair comes just
he week before the state fair. Could
not the Manitowoc Board of Directors
oick a lively man and send the best Of
he county exhibits to Milwaukee? |
nm sure you can get slice of the 81 600
offered by the state.
The management Of the fair is OF the
opinion that Manitowoc county can re-
,eiye share Of the $1,000 offered and
nope that farmers will send in their
best exhibits to the fair here and from
these an exhibit will be made up to be
sent TO the state fair at Milwaukee.

To Build Storage Dams,

Pierre, S. D., March 3l.-A mum.
Der of ranchmen are making prepa-
rations to profit by the experience
of the shortage of grass last year,
on account Of lack of moisture.
Their plans are for the construction
of dams for reservoirs at locations
where they will give high enough
head to the water to food the low
lying grass land, and in this manner
they can assure themselves a hay
crop, even if the rains do not come
when they are needed. If the rains
are abundant there will be no need
of the flooding, but nothing will be
lost by holding water in ponds over
the country, instead Of letting it all
flow away.

AGUINALDO IS LOYAL
Willy Chieftan Takes the
Oath OF Allegiance
to Uncle Sam.
HIS CHIEF JUSTICE ADVISED IT.

This. It is Thought, Will Speedily
End the InsurrectiOn in the Phil.
ippines.-Other News.
Washington, April 2. Secretary
Root has announced that Aguinaldo
has taken the oath OF allegiance to
the United States.
The following cablegram was
made public today:
Manila, April 2.-Since arrival at
Manila Aguinaldo has been at Mala-
canaan investigating the conditions
of the archipelago. He has relied
almost entirely upon the instructive
advice of his chief justice, Arellano.
AS result he today subscribed and
swore to the declaration on page IL
OF my annual report. Macarthur.
The oath referred to is as follows:
II hereby renounce all allegiance
to any and all so-calltd revolution
airy governments in the Philippine
islands, and recognize and accept
the supreme authority of the United
States of America therein. I do
solemnly swear thar l will bear true
faith and allegiance to that govern
ment; that will at all times con-
duct myself as a faithful and law
abiding citizen of said islands, and
will not, either directly or indirect-
ly, hold correspondence with or give
intelligence TO an enemy of the Uni
ted States, nor will ! harbor, abet
or protect such enemy. That l inn
pose upon myself these voluntary
obligations without any mental res
ervation or purpose of evasion, so
help me God"
Notwithstanding the taking Of
this oath by Aguinaldo, be is still
held prisoner by Macarthur under
heavy guard. He will not be given
his liberty for the present.
The action of Aguinaldo in taking.
the oath it is believed will have 3
far-reaching effect toward the pacifi-
cation of the islands.
