Who is seeking the nomination for aid
erman in the eighth ward, is a young
man Of sterling integrity and well
merits the support Of all men who
believe that business principles only
should govern the affairs OF our city.
The eighth ward is a home ward; yet 1t
is one of the heaviest tax paying wards In
the city. And to secure it's due proper
ton, should be represented by one not
afraid to say where he stands, and when
a question Is involved, should not figure
whether he would make or lose vote,
but take his position and do his duty as
he sees it. Mr.. Rabb is making clean
and strenuous campaign, absolutely refus-
ing to make any pledges or promises to
any one and intends that when elected he
shall be free to do as he thinks best for
the interest of his ward and city. Pub
Lefty he believes in, and he promises to
furnish to the residents and taxpayers Of
the ward statement each year as to ap-
pointees, receipts and disbursements,
the same as any stockholder would ex-
pect from any corporation in which he
held stock. - -...-ea
Mr.. Rabb courts investigation and seeks
your support along these lines. His
friends will vouch for his honesty, integ-
rity and ability. .

A DEMOCRATIC PLAN
A Scheme To Get Full Tickets In the
Field. .... ~ 81:

Field. ...... .f .;
It is the intention of the state leaders
Of democracy to have a full legislative
ticket in the field from one end OF the
state to the other. AS there will be a
great many vacancies left by the primary
election, on account of the failure of local
democrats to file for the nomination, the
party chiefs have devised a plan for COM
pleting the ticket.
The plan is to put candidates on the
ticket by petition, and have no designa-
ton, such as the name Of any party, or
even independent" opposite their names.
Then sample ballots will be circulated
throughout the district and the voters will
be informed that the man so nominated
is in reality the democratic nomine for
the office.
The democrats are convinced that the
ruling of the attorney general that a man
that votes at the primary election cannot
sign a petition nominating an independent
candidate for office was not intended to
cover the cases whore the party ticket Sc
cured by the voter at the primary election
gave him no chance to vote for the nomi-
nation of any one for a certain office.
They are confident that the voter can then
sign a petition nominating a man for an
office for which there were no candidates
at the primary election.

Declare Extra Dividend.

At their session in New York yesterday
the Milwaukee directors emphasized the
remarkable prosperity of their company
by declaring a semi-annual dividend of
81 per cent upon the common stock and
an extra dividend Of one-half of 1 per
cent They also declared the regular
semi-annual dividend Of 31a per cent upon
the preferred stock. This action was
equivalent to announcing an annual divi-
dend OF per cent on the preferred stock
and 8 per cent upon the common stock.
Although the increase on the common
was larger than was expected the rate
of even per cent does not make the
common look remarkably cheap at it's
present quotation of 100.

increased trackage may be needed, will

securities recently acquired.
