DR.. J. A. Rene, the democratic
nominee for Congress in this district,
W as in The city Tuesday, and called
upon m any of the representatives of
his party. In the evening he de
livered a speech upon the issues Of
the day, as viewed from his party
standpoint, at the Opera House.
The doctor certainly cannot expect

The new telephone company, re-
Gently organized in Ashland, will
put in a long distance line to this
city, and will very likely put in a
local system here. The Wisconsin
Telephone Company also proposes to
make some extensive improvements
to their line here, which will include
new metallic long distance service
for every telephone. All these
things in the way of telephone i'm
provements ought to make things
rather lively in that direction.
The Jewish people of this city cele-
brated the Day of Atonement for the
year 1903 last week. This is a day
that is celebrated by the Jewish
people all over the world, and like
New Years Day is never allowed to
pass without proper observance.
There were thirteen men and several
ladies and children present at the
celebration, which occurred at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Shoresman.
Services commenced at three o'clock
Friday afternoon, and continued I'M
til eight o'clock in the evening, and
then again at seven o'clock the next
morning lasting until sun down of
that day. During'all this time those
in attendance did not partake of food
or drink The services were in
charge of Mr.. Goldberg, of ST.
Paul.
The recent action of the Spanish
government in paying certain sums
due the United States into the
Treasury Department is being COM
mented upon in officials circles as a
rather exceptional instance of in ter
national honesty. About 1918. Spain
seized certain American merchant
vessels and subsequently court of
arbitration awarded damages to the
United States. These damages were
payable in the form of a perpetual
annuity According to internation-
al law, war ends all treaties and
therefore Spain was relieved from
further legal obligations by the late
war. Nevertheless she has just paid
to the Treasury the sum of $28, 500
and has signified her intention of
carrying out her contract to the let
ter.

1t was raining Wednesday night, yet
the Methodist church was crowded by
well-dressed men and women, girls and
boys, to witness the marriage of a
couple, which, in its originality, affords
nothing new, but is as old as the hills.
but evidently never looses interest to
the common run Of humanity They
want to see how the bride and groom
look. Any announcement of a marri-
age ct church, regardless of weather,
will carry as if by an irresistible i'm
pulse OF curiosity great crowd, and as
soon ss the ceremony is over there is a
rush to get back home. Immediately
after the marriage Wednesday night,
Rev. Mr.. Monser, an evangelist, deliJ-
cred magnificent lecture on Painting
Pictures" but only about one hundred
people remained to hear it. Such is

previously reported, there being only
bruise as if he had struck his head
against something when he fell. His
throat being cut few inches in rag
ged way indicating, as Sheriff Dunn
claims as his solution OF the negro's
death, that the wonnd was made by his
falling on or running against barbed
wire fence. This seems TO be the con-
clusion arrived at, and thus Sheriff
Dunn clears up the mystery, by his dill
igence, what was supposed to be muir
der.

OF business prejudice are many u,er-
chants. How often you hear an adver-
tiser say his "fsther made money and
did not advertise and he does not see
why he should" His father didn't ride
In trolley car nor sleep in Pullman,
either, but his son does. People used to
have more time to shop around than they
do now and competition was not so
swift. The merchant today who mag
ines he can Win business and compete
with his rivals and not advertise is max
ing big business mistake. Newspaper
advertising Is as essential to business
life today as clerks and stock.
