(From Our Own Correspondent.)


Philadelphia, Sept 2.-What every.
body has been expecting has at last
come TO pass. The Democracy has
gobbled the so.called Union party at
one gulp. on Saturday last the Demo.
cratic state leader, Colonel James NJ.
Guffey. held a conference in this city
with Frank NJ Ritter, state chairman
Of the Union party, and completed the
details.
II is a notorious fact that Democrats
have been after Union party delegates
right and left for weeks. The result
of this is that the Democratic owners
of the Union party have demanded an
endorsement Of Pattison and Guthrie
or else they will rough" the conven-
tion and make a scene.
The people in charge Of the Republi.
can state headquarters have kept
themselves fully informed of the move.

of capturing the independent remnant
in this city and state. An agent Of
the party went into Washington coun.
~ and offered the delegates OF the
Union party there free trans portation
and all expenses TO Philadelphia if
they would vote TO endorse Pattison.
In this city the most unusual proceed.
ings have been resorted to to capture
delegates in the interest OF the Demo.

A DEMOCRAT FOR SENATOR.
II is now understood that the deal
between the Union party promoters
and the Democratic managers includes
not only the Endorsement Of the Demo.
cratic state ticket but an arrangement
for the selection of candidates for the
legislature who will be pledged TO vote
for Democrat for United States sena.

THE recent death of Lord Paunce-
fote, the British ambassador at Wash
ington, will be deeply deplored by
Americans and is serious loss to the
English diplomatic service. He was
one of the few Englishmen who under
stood the American people and their
institutions and it will be difficult
matter for the government of Great
Britain to fill his place. During his
long term of service at Washington he
labored zea1ously to promote the most
friendly relations between the two
governments and to smooth away such
causes of contention as arose from
time to time.

THERE is no greater indication of
The progress the state is making
along educational lines than the phe-
nominal growth of public libraries in
Wisconsin during the last few years.
Frank A. Hutchins, secretary of the
Wisconsin Free Library commission,
says of the growth of the library in the
State:
''Inc1uding the public library build
ings now provided for, 100000 have
been given for public libraries in the
State in the last six years. This in
cludes, of course, the Milwaukee, pub
aic library and that of the State His
torical society at Madison. It is a
matter of pride that Of seven most
important library buildings in the
United States, two are to be found in
Wisconsin.
"Excellent library buildings were
built before 1900 in Beaver Dam,
Menasha, Oshkosh, Kenosha and some
smaller towns. Since January, 1901,
however, there has been very great
increase in the matter of public Ii
braries, owing largely to the gifts OF
Andrew Carnegie"

is an electrical engineer who has had
the training of an expert and who has
made close study of the street rail

country and in Europe. He starts,
therefore, with an equipment which is

berry not only in the public parks but

Well Known Young People of Sheridan
Park Come to Kenosha to We'd

Well Known Young People of Sheridan
Park Come to Kenosha to We'd
Kenosha furnished the scene for the
final chapter IN pretty little romance
last Saturday evening. The players
in the romance were Miss Grace
Turner and James Gribben, both well
known young society people of Sheri
dan Park. The two had been engaged
for some time and the family of Miss
Turner had arranged to give them an
elaborate wedding in the late fall.
The young people met Saturday morn
ing and decided that they had waited
long enough for the wedding and in
less time than it takes to tell it they
decided to elope to Kenosha and get
married.
Miss Turner returned to her home
and told her mother that she was going
out to spend the evening with "mar-
ried" friend and would not return until
Sunday afternoon. When the North
Western train reached Kenosha at 6:18
Saturday evening Miss Turner and
sengers. They went at once to the
home of Judge Slosson and told
pretty story about their courtship and
the Judge couldn't refuse them an
order for the wedding. When the
order had been secured the young
couple called carriage and went to
the Manse of the First Congregational
church where the wedding ceremony
was performed by the Rev. H. S.
Roblee. The wedding was over in
time to allow Mr.. and Mrs. Gribben to
take the sos train for Chicago.
They returned to Sheridan Park
Sunday evening and Monday after
noon Mrs. Gribben told her mother
that it might be just as we'll to delay
any further arrangements for the
wedding as she and Mr.. Gribben had
decided not to be married in Novem-
Der. When the second party to the
e1opement arrived and confirmed his
wife's statements an investigation
was started which revealed the story
of the elopement and the marriage in
Kenosha. Mrs. Gribben declared that
she had not fa1sifed as she had spent
the evening with married" friend.
The mother and father of the bride
saw the joke and at once offered their
forgiveness. The young people were
given cordial welcome home and
everything went as merry as the
proverbia1 wedding bell.

THE overwhelming Endorsement
given Senator Whitehead's candidacy
for the gubernatoria1 nomination by
the First District Congressional con-
vention leaves no doubt as to the posi-
ton of the district in the State fight.
1t is Stalwart Republican by a large
majority. The conditions in the dis
trict are peculiar this year. There was
practically no opposition to the renom-
ination of Congressman Cooper. He
had enough votes to nominate him be-
fore the opposition candidate was
brought out in GAINESVILLE, and Rich
ardson was put forward simply in the
hope that he might be able to secure
the election of a few delegates favor
able to Gov. La Toilette. The lines
were sharply drawn between those
who were favorable to the renomina-
ton of the Governor and those who
opposed it. The Governors supporters
had boosted that they would carry
Whitehead's own county and city and
secure an endorsement of the present
administration from the Congressional
convention of his district. They
strained every nerve to make good
their claim that the district was favor.
able to La Toilette and the vote in the
convention shows their full strength in
the district. The battle for the con.
troll of the convention was fought
squarely on the issues of the coming
State campaign, and the result shows
that the great majority of the Repub
lican voters Of the district are opposed
/ to La Fol1etteism.

IN a paper read before Farmers
Institute, held at Grand Junction,
Iowa, recently, J. E. Moss lgivess some
idea of the benefits to the subscribers
resulting from the construction of
rural telephone lines. He says:
"The value of the telephone to the
farmer, aside from placing whole Sec
tons in closer social touch than they
have ever been before, lies in the fact
that he can kept himself acquainted
with the markets of the surrounding
towns. He can practically sell his
stuflby wire before hauling it. He
knows just what the prices are before
going to town. He can choose his
| towns as he can choose his purchasers.
He can keep himself informed in re-
gard to the shipments of his neigh
bors. Farmers on the line can COM
bine for mutual protection. They need
not glut the market and bear prices,
as they were wont to do when ignorant
of each others movements. They
have it within their reach at last to
keep themselves posted" as we'll as
the town shipper or the city buyer.

JUDGING from the com r1ents of the
press and Of the prominent politicians
of both factions, the course of the Re-
publican State Committee in attempt
ing to control the action of the State
convention in the matter of proxies
will be bitterly resented by the dele
gates. 1t will probably have little eff
feet on the convention itself except to
make the delegates more determined
than ever to manage their own affairs
without any dictation from the Gov
ernor or any one else. The convention
itself is the sole Judge of the rights of
its delegates and the State Committee
has no authority to say what the con-
wention shall or shall not do in the
matter of proxies or anything else. It
has always been customary to admit
proxies to all conventions and the
State convention is not likely to make
an exception to the general rule.
There were number of proxies held
and voted by the La Toilette men in
the State Committee, to which no OBJ
lection was made. If proxy can vote
in State committee, why not in a
State convention? It is a poor rule
that won't work both ways. The rea-
sons for the action of the committee,
as stated by the personal organs of the
Governor, are interesting as showing
that gentleman's estimation of the
moral character of the delegates. He
says to them in effect: You are not to
be trusted with proxies because you
can be bought. OF course there is nc
means of knowing what kind of men
the Governor intends to send from
Dane county should he be so fortunate
as to control the county convention
there.
He may have good grounds for his
fears. He knows best what kind OF
material he works with. AS regards
Kenosha county delegates, however
his fears that they may be corrupted
are unfounded. The men who will &c
as delegates to the convention from
this county cannot be bought.
