Fatal Fail on Stsirs.

Monday afternoon about o O'Clock
Mrs. Nicholas Hertert fell on the
stairs at her home in this city, and
died almost instantly. She had been
into the store of Jeuck Brothers, adj
Joining her home, which is on the
second floor of the building owned
by Mr.. Hartert on Commerce street,
and started up the stairs to her apart
ments. Sounds of a fail brought per-
sons near by to look into the hallway
and there found Mrs. Hartert, laying
head downward, her feet resting on
the second step. Mr.. Hartert was
but few steps away, OF the side
walk in front of the Globe Hotel, and
with assistance his wife was ut once
carried to her room and doctor
called. She breathed a few times
only. 1t is supposed that while as
cending the stairs she was seized
with dizziness, to which she was
subject, and fell over backwards;
death resulting almost instantly.
Margaret Beckeus was born in 1910,
in Germany, and came to Mineral
Point a girl. In 1865 was married
to Nicholas Hartert, our city asses
sor for so many years, and her home
was here ever since. She leaves five
children, John, Henry, Nicholas,
Margaret Mre Rasmussen) and Bar
bara, to cherish the memory of IA
devoted mother, and support their
father in his sorrow. or cheerful
disposition, kind heart and helpful
nature, Mrs. Hartert won and re-
tanned the esteem of all who formed
her acquaintance, and her sudden
death is sad shock.

"A sTALWART RoUT."

The following expressions by the
two foremost German republican pa
pers of Milwaukee on the recent
election in that city, are highly sig
nificant:
Die Germania: One fact is as
sured, abovs all others, as II result of
the election, and that is that the
name Of the next governor Of Wis
cousin will not be Whitehead.
Der Eofold: The Stalwart Rout.
The Stalwart wing in Milwaukee has
sustained crushing defeat. The at
tempt to deal Gov. LaFollette blow
because he dared" to name man
for Judge who was not satisfactory
to the leaders of the Stalwart wing
has been decisively repulsed. La
Toilette has won the first tilt. Now
for the second in the state conven-
ton! And there the 8talwart wing
is already on the defensive. It's cam
didate for governor, Mr.. Whitehead,

ARE STALWARTS TRYING TO COM.
NIT SUICIDE

Milwaukee Journal: The Stall
warts are riding to II fall; they are
seemingly bent on political suicide.
They do not recognize plain facts
and meet them squarely. y
People generally cannot be in
deced to take the interest in Stall
wartism which the Eleventh floor
appears to expect. Within three
blocks of the corner of Broadway
and Wisconsin street more than
twenty Stalwarts can be found, bus
mess men and not active politicians,
who voted for Rose on business
grounds. Go to the seventh ward !;
there is no Half-Breed there. You
couldn't get more than two in row
anywhere in the ward The ward
gave its vote for Rose against Baum
gaertner two years ago; dare any one
say that another set of Republicans
in that ward supported him this
time? study the returns from the
sixteenth.
The Tarraut Rose combination ia
all humbug; no combination was
necessary; the nomination by the
Stalwarts in the judicial convention
rendered any further combination
needless, Without word, a consult
tatiou or "a wink, ali friends OF an in
dependent judiciary were driven
from the Stalwart and the Democra-
tic parties to vote for Tarraut. Bar
galu2 Nonsense? Water runs down
hill without bargain. Just as good
Starlwarts as there are in the city
contributed campaign funds and
voted for rarrant and are proud of it.
| Why had the Stalwarts not sense
enough to let the judiciary alone? It
may please Senator Bissell and his
statl to manage things; but some
times people will not be managed.
and that is the time when the wise
boss crawls under cover and out Of

PERTINENT POLITICAL TRUTHS.

George r. Mathes, who is known
as one OF the most reliable aud con
scientious newspaper correspond
ents in Wisconsin, presents some fea-
lures Of the recent election at Mil
waukee, in the Chicago Record
Herold, that republicans should read
and digest. He says: The most
significant feature is the large social
democratic vote which was polled
| This vote reached SAL OH the head
of the ticket, an increase of nearly
| 5000 over two years, and 1000 more
than the vote cast by the party at
| the presidential election in 1900.
The greater part of this increase
came from republican wards. 1t l.
safe to say That of ilIe 1853 plurality
received by Mayor Rose, 1900 came
through the drafts made by the So
cial democrats on the republican
ranks. In many precincts OF the
Twentieth, Twenty first and Tenth
wards, all strongly republican, the
social democratic candidate for may
ar received more votes than Major
Arson. the republican candidate.
The social democrats are strong also
IN the Eighth, Ninth and Eleventh
wards, each one republican.
Under tho circumstances, even
had the republicans been united, it
is doubtful if they could have carried,
their candidate through, or the bal
ance OF Mayor Roses plurality prob
ably one half came from LaFollettr
republicans and the other half from
Stalwart republicans
"Fhe Seventh ward is IN example
of the latter. 1t would be hard TO
find twenty-five LaFollette men in
the ward. Ii has always been known
as Stalwart republican. Yet here, in
Major Ansons own ward, Rose re-
ceived plurality of l2S, overturning
a republican plurality of 800. The
vote came from business men who
believed Mayor Rose was the man
the city wanted, and those who were
Disguised over the judicial fight
made on Judge TWrant. In fact, the
prediction made in the Record Her
aid some weeks ago that if Mayor
Rose was reelected, it would be the
business men OF the city who brought
about the result, has proved true

TRYING TO FIX VALUES.

Mr.. Martin, deputy county super
various towns and villages, inquiring
as To the value of merchants and
manufacturers stocks. Merchants
of this city, upon whom Mr. Martin
called, generally got the idea that
he came with conviction that their
assessments heretofore had been
much too low, and that they were to
be sharply raised. TO some he stated
the amount at which, in his opinion,
they should be assessed. He did not
take or examine any inventories, on
which to base Judgment, merely
glanced through the stores and stated
opinions as to values.
1t is probably true that merchants,
like property owners generally I'm.
der the tax methods OF the past, have
not given top values in statements
for assessors, md have thus sought to
Tighten their taxes; but no stranger
passing through tho stores of this
city as Mr., Martin did, can arrive at
more equitable adjustment of their
valuesthau the city assessor has done.
With eitherit is mere guess Some
stores with small stocks make good
Showings, by displaying everything
to tile best advantage while others
with much larger stocks necessarily
have the goods huddled and crowed
together as closely as possible, and
the casual observer may thus be led
to apprai-e the smaller stock 4, the
larger.
The honesty of the owner, who in
every instance should be put under
oath, must be mainly depended on
in assessing personal property of
this and other classes, as the law
does not provide for assessors to take
or demand inventories or invoices
1t said that Mr.. Martins estimate on
one stock of merchandise in this city
WIS almost double what an invoice
shows, while his guess on another
was only about one third .; what It's
insured for. But the effort being
madefor more equitable assessments

1t has been understood for some
time that d. H. Baker of Linden had
:" the inside track " in his race with
r. I. Williams of Barneveld, for dep
uty game warden of Iowa county
and the announcement that he has
received the appointment is no sur
prise. The necessity for a game
warden in Iowa county is not urgent,
but the law provides for one, and
&" Dig" Baker will no doubt do what
there is to be done in the position as
well as anybody, and is as deserving
the emolumeuts thereof.

the Galena Gazetta says: While
Senator H. G. Martin has made no
public announcement of his candi-
dacy, it is generally understood he
will be candidate for denomination
for state senator for the 18th senator
i'll district. which consists of Lafay-
cite, Green and Iowa" The republic
cans of Iowa county may have "a
candidate for senator, but they rec
ognize Mr.. Martins capability and
the good record he has made dnring
his present term, and would doubt
less prefer him to any untried man,
if they do not unite in presenting a
favorite son."
