NED BRACE TALKS ABOUT THE CONTEST
BETWEEN Gov. JELKS AND JOHNSTON

and feathers. that when the votes are
counted felix's will be reelected by
large majority.
Governor Jelks is a man Of wisdom
and ability. He has been successful IN
everything he has ever undertaken. He
was one Of >the strongest newspaper ed
itors Alabama has produced in many
years, and he was likewise successful as
a newspaper manager
He has many strong friends In BUSH
ness as well as in politics, his word is
always to be relied upon. He is loyal to
mis- friends and straightforward in ev-
erything. To know him Is to admire him.
Jellks. is, however, not an orator. He is
not what l would term an attractive
speaker. He does not enthuse an au-
dience because he does not attempt
flights of oratory, but talks in a straight
forward, practical, businesslike way. And
those who listen to him attentively are
invariably impressed that he is an able
and practical man. This is really the
kind of man that Alabama needs as
governor, and 1 believe that the people
will say so beyond the shadow of
doubt.

NO GRIEVANCE TO AIR.

From the Montgomery Advertiser.
Governor Jelks goes before the people
asking for their endorsement of an I'M
sullied and honorable record In the

anee to air before the people and asks
no vindication from fancied wrongs, He
Is conscious of duty we'll and faithfully

Senatorial Suncessinn.

Senator Pettus' first term will ex-
pire on March 4, 1908, and his second
term on March 4, 1909. Senator Nor.
gan's present term will expire on
March 4, 1907. The next Legislature
will re-elect Senator Pettus. But the
Legislature that meets in January,
1907, will be called upon to elect two
Senators instead of one, because both
Senator Morgan's present term and
Senator Pettus' second term will ex-
pire before the third Legislature I'M
der the new constitution is assembled
in January. 1911.
This state of things occurs occa-
sionally in Mississippi. a State that
elects a Legislature oace in four
years. The legislative sessions of Ala
bama coming so far apart and relieved
of a flood of petty business, will rise
in Importance and dignity, and the
best men in the state will begin to
accept, II not to seek, seats in them
The times between sessions are none
too long. and no inconvenience OF
damage will flow from quadrennial In
stead of biennial sessions, unless 1t be
to the bars and eating places of the
Capital City. All else will be bene-
fitted by long periods between legisla,
tive sessions, and the election of two
United States Senators in 1907 will not
jar the State q bit.

Cost of Livinu.

"a young man on a salary of $50 a
month could save money if he had only
board and laundry bills to pay and
clothes to buy, but other expenses bring
the cost Of living up to his entire sal
ary," said a clerk.
MY board costs $3.50, which is 500 a.
year. My clothes cost $3.50 a year and
my laundry $50 year. spend about $50
a year in street car fare, $50 or $40 for
cigarettes, $25 or $40 for temperance
drinks and about $40 for theater tickets.
So you see l have nothing left at the
end Of the year. Very few young men
who get as much as $50 or 500 a month
save anything"

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

From the New York Press.
Matrimony rhymes mighty easy with
alimony.
The more a woman learns to think the
less she seems like woman.
1t takes a good woman to think that
every other woman is bad enough to
steal her husband.
No matter how much experience a man
has had with women. there isn't one on
earth who can't make him feel. when he
runs against her that he never before
had any at all.

Restaurants In Summer.

Restaurant trade falls off In hot
weather" remarked the proprietor of a
Twentieth street eating house last night.
MY receipts have been particularly
light during the past few weeks, nearly
as many customers call as usual but they
eat much less than they do In cool
weather Quite number of the people I
serve regularly eat meat only once a
day, and very few eat meat three times
a day."

IN HOTEL LoBBIEs.


THE Rev. Dr. L. ". Munhall. the
Methodist evangelist, who conducted a re-
vival at the First Methodist church In
certain of the professors and editors of
his denomination who have arrayed
themselves on the side of the higher
critics.. said layman yesterday.
THE Literary Digest prints an extract
from DR.. Munhall's pamphlet, entitled
A Crisis in Methodism, and replies
taken from the Methodist press.
THE noted preacher asserts that the
spiritual life of Methodism Is dying out
and the real cause of 1t all Is. IN his
opinion. the dishonor put upon Gods
Holy Word in many of our educational
institutions, by some editors of church
periodicals and not a few preachers. He
says that in the faculties of most of
the leading institutions are men who
are skeptics and rationa1ists.
DIR Munhall includes in his Indictment,
by name, Prof. II. G. Mitchell of Boston
University School of Theology, and Prof.
c. w. Rishill of the same institution;
Prof. Milton S. Terry of Garrett Biblical
Institute and Pres. Charles J. Little of
the same institute; Samuel Plantz of
Lawrence University. President Bradford
P. Raymond of Wesleyan University and
Chancellor James r. Day of Syracuse
University. the last named being charged
wits staying away from the Munhall
meetings three years ago because the
evangelist assailed the critics who teach
infidel objections to the Bible Several
editors are indicted, among them those
who conduct lions Herald and the Meth
odist Review.
IF he had his way DR.. Munhall would
compel UNCONVENTIONAL book agents to
stop publishing books that contain the
higher criticism, Which he styles wretch
ed stuff. In replying to the attacks of the
evangelist the editors of the papers
named are quite seathing One of them
says: DR.. Munhall's knowledge, as shown
by his writings. has the same value in
theology as Brother Jasper's In astron-
omy'
''The editor further remarks: There Is
no crisis in Methodistism. The crisis Is in
Munhallism His crude evangelism, a car
iculture CT the Gospel is no longer eff
fective or remunerative.'
ut is much to be regretted that man
Of such prominence in the church as
DR.. Munhall and fellow members of the
church should have got into this snarI.
1t does harm to the cause of religion.
The doctor hasn't sufficient scholarship
to cope with the MEN he has indicted for
being higher critics. and 1t would be far
better for Methodism # he were to con-
tent himself with preaching the word"

Summer Drinks,


"Limeade is still very popular drink,
but we sell more coca-cola than any,
thing else said the proprietor of large
soda fountain.
THE demand for coca-eola is increasing
steadily, and twice as much of it is dis
pensed here now S was sold two or
three years ago. I have heard people say
that this beverage was injurious to the
nervous system, but that cannot be true,
because of all my customers I cannot
think of one who is not in as sound con-
dillon apparently as he or she was be-
fore beginning to drink 1t. -oca-cola Is
certainly delicious and refreshing. It is
stimulating, too, but no mere so perhaps
than tea or coffee. The boys call 1t dope
but that js only in fun"

"LOOK OUT FOR THE CARS"

A party of surveyors went out to
Moreley on Tuesday, for the purpose
of surveying and locating a route from
Moreley to Trout City where it will
form connection with the Bradley
road. There is no doubs that another
season the road will be continued to
this city thus giving direct connection
with Merrill. Mr. Heipeman, of Wausau,
is the Investigator OF the road, although
it is said he is backed by the Northwest
ern. If this road is built, as it is expect
ed it will be, if will be of immense BEN
eft to Ap,igo and the country between
here and Trout City, as there is large
amount of unoccupied land on the pro-
posed route which would soon become
invested into farms The name of Trout
City will be obliterated from the map
and will be substituted by "Heineman"
by which name ii will be known hereaf-
ter Mr.. Heineman has extensive lum-
ber interests, not only at and around
Trout City but along the proposed route.
He will have a saw mill at each end of
the line.-Antigo News Item.

STATE TO CURE CONSERVATIVES,

1t appears that the work of building
hospitals in Wisconsin for the cure of
consumptives which was agitated some
time ago when the Wisconsin Health
Park association which secured tract
of land near Tomahawk, from the Alex
ander Stewart Lumber Co. of this city,
for that purpose, is about to be taken
up by the state as viii be seen by the
following from the Milwaukee Free
Press of Friday
The state board of health in its an
nual report to be made to Gov. La Fol-
lette early in January, will recommend
that an appropriation be made for the
establishment of a state hospital for
the treatment of tuberculosis. 1t will
also urge the legislature to appropriate a
large enough fund to carry on the work
of stamping out this disease, which, it
is believed, can be done if the treatment
now in vogue in the East is introduced.
The principal work of the state board
the coming year will be TO stamp out
the ravages of tuberculosis in Wis
eonsin," said Dr. Z. O. B Wingate,
secretary of the board. Consumption
can be cured; there is no longer any
doubt about that. Statistics taken dur
ing the past year in the New England
states, where tuberculosis is more COM
mon than here "a the West. prove with
out doubt that fully 95-per cent. of
incipient cases can be cured if they are
discovered in time. Yes, the treatment
Of zoe New England SPECIALISTS has sue
cteded in curing eases lh the advanced
stage of the disease, although | an not
prepared to give my data or statistics
in regard to these cures.
.sThe climate of Wisconsin is specially
adapted TO the cure of tuberculosis.
II is our plan TO establish a hospital, pos
sibly at some point near this city, which
will be under the direction of the state
board Of control, as are the other state
institutions, and where people who are
unable TO pay fC~ treatment can be
taken care of In many states in the
union such hospitals are being erected
or are already in operation, and as re-
suit many incipient cases have been
cured.
Yes. is it open air treatment that
has effected cure In the greater num-
ber of cases that have come before the
attention of the authorities in the diff
ferent states. and hospitals for the
treatment of the disease are SO con-
stracied that the patient always has a
supply Of cool pure air and plenty of IT.
AS have said, we shall urge strongly
the necessity of the establishment of a
hospital for the treatment of tuberculos-
is. for the disease is on the increase In
Wisconsin aud thousands Of people who
are suffering with this disease, suppos-
edly ineurahle. can. undes the open air

ANOTHER SUICIDE.

Wausau has been in a dormant state
nearly all Of the past summer but just
at present there appears to be an effort
on the part of Fate to help fill the news
columns of the local papers, for we
have had two suicides and three hold
ups within week. The latest indi-
vidnal to become tired Of life is August
Weishauer. For some time past Fred.
Yonker, who conduc.s saloon in The.
Geier building on the west side, has
noticed that someone has been stealing
his wood Suspecting Weishauer, who
conducted snoe repair shop in an ad-
joining building, he reported the mat
ter to the police. On Thursday night
Captain German watched for the thief
and caugh, Weishauer in the act of
carrying away an armful and arrested
him. Although the man protested his
Innocence at the city hall there was
nothing about his demeanor that would
Indicate that he contemplated suicide,
and at an early hour be was visited by
I officers German aud Relitz, who adj
vised him to plead guilty and thus get
off with as light sentence as possible
This he finally agreed to do and again
laid down on his cot Not long there
after jailer Juneau, in passing the cell
noticed the mans suspenders wound
about the bar grating in the cell door
and reaching his hand through the
bars caught hold of the suspenders and
found that something heavy was at
tached to the other end. Suspecting
the truth he cut the suspenders with a
knife and then unlocked the door,
when Weishauer fell out onto the cor
ridor floor. dead. The man had taken
one of his blankets and torn the same
into strips which he braided into rope
about so inches long. After tying his
suspenders about the iron bars in the
the rope to the suspekders and with the
other he made moose aDo;.:t. his neck
and then sank to the floor and strangled
to death. Coroner Dickens was sum-
mOueu anu NleW6u Ine TeuldiuS anu
surroundings. but as the evidences of
suscide were so plain he concluded it
unnecessary to hold an inquest and the
remains were prepared for burial and
buried in the potter's field.
| The man had been resident of Mara
thon county for over twenty years.
When he first came here he conducted
. small shoe shop for number of
years and later purchased farm in
the town of Weston. About year ago
be decided this farm to his wife, and
this act proved to be his undoing
After the title had been invested with
his wife he went away in search of
work He worked for several months
and then returned home only to find
that his wife had, during his absence,
disposed of the farm and with the
money she received had, with their son,
abandoned him and gone to Iowa. He
then opened another shoe shop on the
west side by the operation of which he
barely made living The man was
about sixty years of age.
