CITY SCHOOL NEWS.

The popular concert to be given next
Friday evening in the high school as
sembly hall promises a great treat to
music lovers of all kinds, from the
classical critic to the uth-organ mu-
stefan. The progam will be popular,
, though this does not mean that it will
consist of trash. The concert will be-
gin promptly at eight and with a Judi
cious use of the encore the long pro
gram will seem anything but hresome.
The admission is 30 cents for adults,
and % cents for school children. The
high school chorus, under whose au-
spices the concert is given, has been in
creased to over a hundred voices, its
weak places have been strengthened,
and has been doing good work this
winter. OF the other performers moth
ing need be said nothing new could be
said-for they have already shown
what they could do and a glance at the
program reveals the fact that the creme
of Wausau musicians will Ito carry out
the fgure) he thick and sweet at this
concert. Come and get a taste. An
effort has been made to have good
music that everyone can appreciate,
and the program proves that this effort
has been successful.
The girls basket ball tournament
last Friday evening was well attended
and an interesting time was had by
players and spectators. Among the
the latter, opposition ran highest among
opposing factions of lusty voiced Jun
iOrs and Seniors. In the first contest
the SOphomores defeated the Freshmen
with score of 3 to s. The Faculty
Junior team went out of the lists with
a score of to the Seniors IL. Then the
Freshmen and Juniors compared skill,
score to 7. The last game between
the two winners was a hot one. The
score was close, 6 to Tin favor of the
Sophomores, and the teams about evenly
matched. No boys were allowed on
the gymnasium floor and the boys in
the balcony even insisted that black
haired little girl in basket ball attire
was boy and that the long black braid
belonged to a wig. In fact everyone
seemed to think so too, and was even
limited, very loud by that she was a
Senior boy, so she was ordered off the
floor.
There are about forty more pupils in
the high school now than there were at
this time last year.
Some indoor base ball apparatus has
been ordered for the high school gym
nasium and the girls are taking hold
of it.
The boys are beginning to talk about
the field work and will soon go into
training for the spring meets.
One thing that seems to be supplied
to the high school in great abundance
is water to wade through.
About the sweetest thought to all of
us just now is the prospect of a vaca-
ton next week.
Miss May Briggs, '98, who is attend
ing the Oshkosh Normal has the honor
of being one of four Normal students
chosen out of 176 for the oratorical con-
test next year

OUR CANDIDATES.
HON. LOUIS MARCHETTI.

Louis Marchetti, the democratic can
didate for mayor this spring is a man
known to nearly every man, women
and child in the city, but brief bio
graphy of him will do no harm. Mr..
Marchetti came TO this city in 1867, fol
lowed numbering until 1869, then en-
gagged in teaching school and book
Keeping. In 1876 Mr. Marchetti was
elected clerk of the circuit court, mu-
nicipal Judge in 1878, was reelected in
1890 and county Judge in 1881 being ad-
mitted to the bar the latter year. As
county Judge he served until 1898. In
the wears 1877 and 1878 Mr. Marchetti
represented his ward-the FirSt-in the
city council as alderman. In 1898 he
was appointed by President Cleveland
as register of the L. ). Land office,
which position he held for four years.
Louis Marchetti is man of strong per-
Sonality, man of great influence in
matters appertaining to the public veal.
He is public spirited and patriotic and
has always enjoyed the confidence of
his fellow citizens. 1t was mainly
through his efforts that the Peace
Jubilee and demonstration was gotten
up ut the time Company q. returned
home from Porto Rico, and he has
ALWAYS been a friend of the bows who
wore the army blue. He is energetic
and quick to perceive any movement
that will rebound 10 the best interests
of this community. He is fearless, and
should he be elected, will guide the
city'S affairs with 4 governing power

with an honesty that will be partial to
the citizens as whole. Ii is not neceS-
Sary 10 frame a platform for him to

self. Socially Mr.. Marchetti is q man
whom il is pleasure 10 meet, a true
friend but quick to perceive practice
of the art of deception. Having had
long years of training in municipal af-
fairs ne without question would make
an ideal administrator of city affairs,
and would conduct an administration
that the people of Wausau could point
TO with pride. He has always been a
democrat, though he has never allowed
his political ideas to run 10 the extreme
of 0igotry, and thus has made many
warm aud SteSdfaSt friends among
those whose opinions differ with his

Seim brothers have found difficulty
of late in keeping a sufficient supply of
stock on hand to supply customers, but
now have made arrangements whereby
this difficulty will be overcome. The
new styles and low prices prevailing
have enticed the citizens of Wausau to
make purchases at this popular store
that have drawn heavily on the stock.
Carload lots are arriving daily now to
replenish the stock and consists of the
very latest styles in mems and chill
dren's clothing, hats, underwear etc.

A NATION without an ideal That
seems to be what we are since the re-
publican party destroyed all the ideals
upon which our nation was founded.
A bad national ideal is better than
none provided the national conscience
has been educated to think it good.
If we could at once become so changed
that we could sincerely laugh to scorn
our forefather'S maxim that govern
ments derive their Just powers from the
consent of the governed" and adapt
ourselves to the European ideal of
military glory, and the flag, regarrddleTss s
the germ of new sort of manhood. 1t
would be poor type of manhood COM
pared with that which has been de-
Stroyed, but it would be something.

From Madison.

The talk of the past week in Madison
has been the primary election bill, it
seems that when Gov. LaFollette WAS
ready to push his pet scheme he did it
without asking the consent of Ellis
Usher or the Milwaukee Journal. He
Just secured the consent of a majority
of the members of the assembly, then
there was some rough shod riding and
the bill passed by vote of 81 to As.
Now the fight is in the Senate and we
haven't the least doubt but what the
Governor will pursue the same tactics
IN the senate as he has in the assembly,
whipping the refractory fellows
into line.

that in a short time this sum will be

that it is proposed to sign. Applications
have been pouring in from all over the

the strongest team that it has ever had.

SMITHS GUESS.
Next Senator VIII Spell His
Name CURTIS.

IF present indications count for any
thing the man who is elected to sue
coed Senator Harris will spell his name
CURTIS"
This is the opinion handed down last
night by Senator F. Dumont Smith, of
KinsIey who is himself mentioned for
United States senator.
In my opinion" went on Senator
Smith, the only man who can beat
Curtis out of the senator ship is w. J.
Bailey. To do it Bailey would have to
get into the material race himself.
which he is not likely to do. Curtis will
have the solid support of the First dis
trict unless Bailey should go into the
race Bailey could divide it with him.
but no one else could. Curtis is also
very strong in his old district, the
Fourth, and he will have the majority
of the members of the legislature in
enormous leverage to start with Then
his friend, Mr.. Low, can do a great
deal towards swinging the Fifth and
Sixth districts to him, which would
elect him by a big majority. That's my
opinion of the situation as it stands at
present.
Concerning his own candidacy, Sen
ator Smith said 1t is easy to get men
toned for any place, and it stands off
the other fellows.
LAS it is now all the other candidates
are friendly to me, but none of them
can ask me to commit myself to any
of them" said Senator Smith. 80 L
propose to stay in the race as long as
possible. I have no great ambition to
go to congress anyway. I would rather
be big fish in a little puddle like the
Kansas state senate, than little fish
in a big puddle like congress-"
Senator Smith is already outlining his
work in the next session of the legis-
lature. He will. of course, champion the
proposed tax bill prepared by the tax
revision committee. He is also prepar-
ing measure to protect bank deposit
ors which will greatly resemble the bill
which John w. Breidenthal prepared
for the special session of 1898, but which
the Populists themselves defeated.

MIR. BURTON CLASHES.
Indiana Senator Wouldn't Mind Kan
sas Man.

According to a Washington dispatch
the latest victim of Senator Burton S
displeasure is Senator Fairbanks of In
diana Senator Burton is in Washing
ton to accomplish things. and when
anybody gets in his road he is not
afraid to tell them about it.
According to the dispatch from
Washington, Senator Burton's sister,
Mrs. Dodd, wants to be appointed post
mistress at Mitchell, Indiana. Indiana
is Buttons old home and he conse-
quently takes considerable interest in
affairs back there.
The term of ]. G. Dale, the present
postmaster at Mitchell, will soon ex-
pire- He is an appointee of Senator
Fairbanks and is an applicant for re-
appointment. AS there is no special
reason why Senator Fairbanks should
turn him down, he expects a reappoint-
ment.
Yesterday Senator Burton saw SEN
ator Fairbanks and asked him to en-
dorse Mrs Dodd. The Indiana senator
said he would consider the matter, a
reply which evidently did not please
Mr.. Burton, who became persistent and
finally stated that if Mr.. Fairbanks did
not indorse Mrs. Dodd he would see the
president and have her appointed with
out Endorsement. This was resented
