PROVIDING FOR MRS. MCKINLEY.

(The following editorial in last weeks Tri-
bune was so jumbled in an attempt to correct
proof sheets, that its republication seems ne
cessary.- EDIToRsD
Newspapers represent that the late
President Mckinley left an estate OF
about $25O000, all of which goes to
his widow, there being no children.
Very properly, all expenses incident
to the Presidents death and burial
will be borne by the government, and
pursuant to an approved custom, the
balance Of the presidential salary for
the year in which he died to the 4th
Of next March, will be paid to the
widow. Thus it is gratifying to know
that Mrs Mckinley is amply provid-
ed for through the remaining years
Of her life, which all hope may be
many.
A further provision for her, advo-
Gated by many newspapers. of $1,000
per year as IA pension from the ma
tional treasury, is unnecessary, aud
ought not to be made. Such a pen
sion, in her case, would be but an adj
dition 10 accumulated wealth that
ultimately must fall to individuals
who have no more claim upon the
government than other citizens. At
three per cent. interest the income
from the Mckinley estate will be
$1,000 to $4,000 per year. From the re-
puted modest tastes and character of
Mrs. Mckinley, it is fairly to be as
sumed that such an income viii be
ample for all her wants, leaving the
estate undiminished at her death.
Why should the government add to
to this, $4,000 per year Tor the pen
eft of miscellaneous heirs? If at
any time during Mrs. McKinley's life
the estate left her becomes impaired
so that il does not yield her luxurious
support, the people will approve a
generous pension. While she has
ample means and it is apparent that
any special pension voted to twill
be practically donation to others,
such action would be misdirected
generosity.

and intimates that Mr.. Castles prop
osition is in line with, and more COM
mendable than the practice now in
vogue of maintaining thousands OF
political favortes in sinecure posi-
tions at high salaries.
IF we understand MIR. Castle"
saws the Advocate, " his proposition
is that in periods of depression when
the laboring man is forced to suffer
ing for the want of honest labor, the
government, which in its hour of
need requires the sacrifice OF his life
if need be in its defense, should give
him honest employment. What Il
crime to thus speak for honest labor,
populistic is it? What is our govern
ment doing to-day? Look at the ar
my OF employees drawing salaries
which many of them never earn.
Would it be worse to furnish honest
laborers with needed employment
than to pay salaries to the sons OF
rich and favored politicians? Would
it be worse to give an honest laborine
man needed employmentthan to give
millions to the fraudulent contract
ors? Would it be more of crime
to furnish employment to the man
who is willing to work than it is tc
pay "A salary to IA man who negiects
the duties of his official position to
lobby in the interest of corpora
tions?n

GOVERNOR LAFoLLETTE mas an
nounced the appointment of a com
mission provided for by the last
legislature to locate the position OF
Wisconsin troops at Vicksburg, dur
ing the civil war, where a monument
is to be erected in honor Of the sol
diers who died there. OF thirty com
missioners and alternates named for
the state, six are from Madison.
Governor LaFollette, like too many
of his predecessors, seems to be un-
able to withstand the ravenous ONCE
seekers that infest the capital city,
and yields to them disproportionate
share Of the states honors and favors.
An appropriation of Sl0,000was made
from the state treasury to pay the
expenses Of the commission and
erect the monument.

TRIBUNE COUNTY MAP.
Now Ready for Subscribers.

The first installment of the new
wall map of Iowa county, prepared
for the Mineral Point Tribune, is re-
ceived and ready for inspection and
sale at the following prices.
Map, cloth mounted .... $500
Map, paper mounted .......... l.50
Map paper mounted and Tri-
bune for one year .... ........... 200
These prices are strictly cash.
Each new subscriber for the Tri-
bune, on payment OF 81, will be given
receipt for one year in advance on
the paper and the map. Present sub
scrbers, on the payment of all ar
rearages, and 81 additional, will be
furnished the map and a receipt COW
ering the Tribune for one year in adj
vance.
Our main purpose in procuring
this map is to secure new subscribers
for the Tribune, and induce payment
of arrearages by present patrons.
Therefore, the amount estimated for
the map in connection with the pap
er, is less than cost, and we cannot
afford to do this except on strictly
cash basis.
While this map may not be beyond
criticism in every detail, it is pro-
nounced by competent judges In sew
eral towns to be the most accurate
and practically useful map ever made
of the county. The location of high
ways, school houses, creameries,
cheese factories, etc, is clearly
shown, and the names of land own
ers, corrected down to recent date
are plainly printed thereon.
such map, being obtainable ut
less thas one third the price of any
heretofore published, is expected to
meet popular approval and ready
sale. w. II. q b. J. BENNETT,

smiled
She did She saw that one corner OF
the mouth was drawn UP, the eyes had
a decided squirt, and there was nose
enough for two men. If Mr.. Bowser
had been on three days spree and
then fallen foul of threshing machine

M'MURPHY'S FLATS.
The Janitor Tells the German Gro
About Fire.


Copyright, 1901. by c. B. Lewis.)
'Vhell, Mr. Sprockett, begin to pc
lief you hat sefen more kinds of asth-
ma" said the German grocer as the
janitor of McMurphy's flats limped into
the store the other day.
NO; | think I'm going along with
three kinds at present" was the reply,
.but think my heart action is weaker
and that one of my lungs is gradually
shriveling up
"Und you vhas liable to drop dead
any timer"
We'll, hardly. I'm simply liable not
to carry in any coal or carry out any
ashes this winter. It's all according
to how a janitor plans, you know. If
I'd been like some janitors, I'd have
been worked to death before this"
"Und you don't do some hard work,
eh?' laughed the grocer as he tried to
wink and failed to get the eye closed.
THE hardest thing I've done for a
week was to throw Mrs. O'Sullivan
goat out of a second story window for
