Take the tariff for instance. VIII
the Republican. party follow the Aid
riches and Dalzells of New England
and Pennsylvania, and continue to pro-
tect the gigantic combines in exactinG
higher prices from Americans than
from foreigners, or will it comply with
the reasonable demands of the Bah
cocks of the West, and deprive those
combines of their tariff instrument OF
extortion? Can any man tell? Does
even Mckinley or Hanna know?
Or take the question of shipping
bounties. The Republican party did
nothing during the life of the last Con-
gress; does any Republican know what
it will do in the new Congress, espe-
cially in view of the fact that Ameri-
cans are building and buying ships
without any bounty from the United
States Treasury to encourage them?
viii it vote S1S0,000,000 out of the Ma
tional Treasury into the strong boxes
of men who can make plenty of money
without being bountied by American
taxpayers?
Or take the Philippines. The Su-
preme Court has not yet decided that
we may put up tariff bars and keep
them up forever against the products
of that or any other portion of the
territory of the United States. Sup
pose it should decide in effect that we
cannot do that; what then will the Re
publican party do? In the words OF
Mr.. Foraker, rs our flag to come down
or stay upY
An answer to that question may be
suggested if we recall the fact that Mr..
Foraker himself said on the floor of the
Senate that if we could not lay duties
on the products of the Philippines
brought into our continental ports we
could not get rid of them too soon.
I'VE know where you stood last
year" when you said that, but where
do you stand this year? What answer
do we get?" These questions, Mr.. For
aker, which you put to Democrats you
will please answer for yourself and
your party associates.
Does the answer to the question
whether the flag is to come down or
stay up depend on an opinion of the
Supreme Court not yet handed down?
If the provision of the constitution
that duties must be uniform follows the
flag, must the flag come down? You
said so last year, Mr.. Foraker; do you
say so this year? "What answer do
we get?'-Chicago Chronicle.

claring that higher education untitled

his auditors was that boys should be al

She is broader in spirit and more in touch

Where Do Republicans Stand.

Senator Foraker is right, no doubt,
in saying that the Democratic party
has not lately made an authoritative
declaration OF what it would do, If in
power. about the tariff. the money of
the country, shipping Dounties, the Nj
caragua canal, Porto Rico. the Philip
pines. Cuba and other matters.
There has been no convocation au-
thorized to speak for the Democratic
party of the nation for nearly yees=
Mr.. Foraker Is warranted, therefore. In
assuming that the Democratic party
has not changed. judging it by its own
official record.
But il is just as true OF the Republi-
can party as IL is OF the Democratic
party that nobody knows to certainty
what it means to do or can agree 10 do
about most Of these matters. which are
Of very great importance.

ALL OVER THE STATE
ITEMS OF INTEREST IN BADGER
DOM.
Confession of Mineral Point Bank Rob-
ber-Thieves Take Old Farmers En-
tire Hoard-MeiicaI Law Held Valid
Expensive Fire at Monterey.

The story of the robbery of the Mineral
Point Bank, for which Stewart Jeliff IS
now serving a sentence in the Green Bay
reformatory, is unique i'll the history OF
crime. Before being taken 10 Green Bay
Jelif made full confession. Jelif start
ed by making a rude ladder, which was
afterward found near the building, and
then stole from the granary of farmer
in the vicinity ten or twelve grain bags
and five buggy curtains. The former
were taken II deaden the sound of the
explosion and the latter to keep out the
rain where the opening was made in the
roof. With this preparation Jeliff, on the
night before the robbery, cut a hole in
the roof OF the bank building and through
this put his ladder, grain sacks and cur
tains, and followed himself. He replaced
the piece cut out of the roof and put the
oil cloth curtains under the opening to
keep out rain in case of storm. Con
cealed in this hiding place, Jeliff laid IN
til the next night. All the food he had
was a few bits of cheese. The next
night he began work by moving the bricks
from the top of the vault. He had to
dig through brick work three feet thick,
but had finished this in an hour. when
he lowered the ladder and let himself
down into the vault. He easily opened
the vault door and then put a charge of
nitroglycer;n against the safe and set it
off. A second charge was needed before
the safe would yield, and this last eXplo-
sion closed the vault door. shutting Jeliff
out, as he had gone into the office during
the explosion. Jeliff let himself out and
climbed to the roof, coming down inside
as he did at first, and again opened the
door of the vault. Then he took the ST.
900 in geld and placed it in a grain sack
and the remainder in currency in his
pockets.

Holds Medical Law Is Valid.

The medical law passed last winter
which requires graduates of medical col
leges to take examinations before the
State board before being licensed to prac-
tice, except those who matriculated at
Wisconsin colleges before the law was
passed, was decided to be valid and con-
stitutional by Judge Sebecker in the
Circuit Court at Madison, and the alter
native writ of mandamus to compel the
board to issue a license to James Il.
Douglas of Portage on his diploma as Il
graduate of the College of Physicians
Cand Surgeons, Chicago was quashed and
the case dismissed. The court held that
the determinations made by the law are
within the police powers of the State
and properly exercised by the Legisla-
ture.

Strange Case of Marie Mentis.

After coming all the way from Boston

Marie Mentiss, Mrs. c. A. Shepard
learned that she had disappeared eight
years ago. In 1893 Miss Marie Mentiss,
who was at that time 80 years old and Il
dressmaker in La Crosse, said that she
was going to st. Paul to open dressmak-

intention and despite the fact that the

Perry s. Heath is destined TO make
a sensational finish. He has figured in
journalism, in politics and in banking,
and he is now in railroads. The fact
that he has not as yet achieved great
success in any of these lines does not
prove that he will make a failure in all.
The strenuous life has charms for him
and nothing short Of a worldwide panic
which will freeze up all the sources of
speculative wealth is likely to stop him.

1t is possible that the brutal tactics
adopted by advocates of protection for
industries that have outgrown any
need or excuse for such favor, for com
bines that are paying dividends on hun
dreds of millions of fictitious capitali-
cation, may be able to prevent any
reformatory action by the Fifty-sey-
enth Congress. We can conceive of no
happier fortune for the somewhat de-
moralized and disheartened Democracy
than to be endowed with the campaign
thunder, the political capital, that will
be in it's hands if Congress adjourns
without having put away the fragrant
abuses that are sheltered behind some
of the schedules of the tariff of 1897.

The Successful Man.

The SUCCESS If the young man,
to-day in life, depends uPtn, more
than anything else, having fixed
purpose in view and the persisten-
oy to carry that purpose into effect.
One does not need to be talented
to make his mark in the world.
While talents will be of great aid,
yet those deficient in special gifts,
can make up for their absence by
hard labor and a persistent pur-
pose. How many young men make
failures of this lifo because they
become discouraged, fall down. and
have not got the determination to
get upon their feet aud push on ?
Opportunities at this period are
more humorous than they ever
were before-not for the young
man who does things by halves,
however, and cannot stick to a
thing. There are too many of
these young men, and that is what
makes opportunities SO many.
The young man starting out can
not expect to walk a path strown
with roses and never encounter any
obstacles. He is bound to be be-
set with difficulties and when he
does strike a bump, right then is it
determined whether he has the
stuff in him necessary to become
successful in life. He should listen
to the advice offered him by every
one, but when it comes time to aot
he should do SO according to his
own judgment and the dictates of
his own man. Let nothing dis.
courage him but continue bravely
on with that everlasting purpose
to win. That's what counts. Many
persons will be met by the young
man aiming to make his mark,
which persons will strive to pull
him down and ruin him, but they
must be compelled to realize that
nothing cnn deter him, and that he
is going to accomplish his end.
Thore are 80 many young men in
the world to-day who are 80 much
afraid If soiling their hands by
labor that they never can become
successful. Be willing to work, to
do any kind of honorable labor.
Learn your trade or profession
thoroughly, even though it re-
quires more time than you at first
expected, ind you will have no
cause for regret. Work, for your
employers interest the same as if
you were working for your own.
He will appreciate it and you will
profit by it. Above all never give
up, but strive to accomplish your
purpose with. a persistenoy that
knows no defeat.
