School Notes.

School items are scarce this week, as
every one has been very good except
the teachers. Too much sleighriding
is not good, even for teachers.
Some of the high school students had
a very enjoyable sleighride last Friday
evening by becoming little boys and
girls and tying their sled to that of an
other sleighing party.
Miss Davies spent Saturday and Sun
day on the Sound.
Henry Filler, Ray Flummerfelt and
Frank Karrer were absent Wednesday,
on account of illness.
We have little smallpox scare, but
hope that it will not interfere with our
school work.
The controlling of contagious dis
eases can be accomplished only by the
officers doing their duty as prescribed
by law, add with the assistance of the
parents.
The highest enrolment for the year,
$50, was made last week.
The seniors have begun to make
preparations for commencement.

report from the monkey cage
of Barnum's Circus ever since
the keepers began dosing the
monkeys with SCOTS Emul-

to buy new ones.
One day a keeper accident

This suggested the idea that it
might do them good. Since
then the monkeys have received

HoodoO Thirteen.

'f l owned a hotel.' said a clerk
In one Of the leading hotels the other
evening, as a guest left the office, aft
er positively refusing to be located in
a '13" room, I'D settle that thirteen
superstition. / wouldn't have a thir-
teen room in the house; L would skip
them altogether. The idea isn't Origi-
nal with me, for some houses now
avoid the nuisance by numbering what
would otherwise be the thirteen rooms,
twelve and a half, or by passing over
from twelve to fourteen. But I'd
copy the idea. These superstitious
people distress me.
Here" suddenly continued the
clerk, as a person On the other side
of the counter absent mindedly started
to close the hotel register what are
you doing that for? Do you want to
queer this hotel. If you closed that
book we wouldn't have any business
for the rest Of the day, and maybe the
'hoodoO' would follow US for a week.
That's right, laugh; but l have been
in this business long enough to know
what l am talking about
what was that you said about
superstitious peoples" inquired the
man on the other side of the counter.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1902-01-02

Hon. I. E. Ryan, Wisconsin, 8
member of the Demo cratic National
Committee, spoke at meeting of the
Jefferson Club, in Milwaukee, on
Friday evening of last week. Fol-
lowing are some of the good things
which he said:
THAT there is use for practical
politics, as far as we are concerned
no one can question. We have pass
ed through two national campaigns
and defeat has stared US in the face
on both occasions. Just why defeat
was brought about is unnecessary for
US at this time to undertake to eX-
plain. 1t is sufficient that we were
defeated. We are now about to face
new campaign, and in the evolution
OF things great questions are arising
every day, and it is necessary that
the Democratic party, without leaving
any of it's principles as originally
laid down by the founders of the par
ty, should learn to apply them to
these questions now confronting the
American people. 1t would be use
less for US to advocate at this time
that we ought to enter upon the new
campaign, the state campaign about
to be inaugurated, or the campaign
of 1904, upon the old questions that
we have been fighting for for the past
eight years. We have fought these
out. We must meet the new questions
as they confront US. | do not feel,
myself, that we need feel discouraged
about the future. [ believe that the
future looks bright for the Democrat
if.T artr
action and a proper application of
Democratic principles to the new
questions of the hour, that the Demo-
cratic party may be able to be victor
iOus in the very near future; not only
in the state of Wisconsin, but in
the nation at large.
FThere has been one great difficulty
with the Democrats in the past. We
have been inclined to divide ourselves
into factions. and become split up by
some little local questions. [ tell you
my friends, If the Democratic party of
the state or nation wants to win, we
have got to stand shoulder; we have
got to make it easy for the Democrats
to join us. Advocate from now on
party harmony and party unity.
Il believe the great trust question
is going to be the question of the
hour in the year 1904, and where is
there a Democrat, gold or silver,
Stalwart or Half-Breed, who believes
in Democratic principles and will not
join US in that fight in the coming
year | believe it the duty of every
Democrat, regardless of what he has
been in the past, to join us in this
question and fight for the future.
Fight shoulder to shoulder Demo
Gratis, and do not by fusions be led
astray. Let those who do not want
to- join US under the folds of the
Democratic banner 90 where they
please. | believe the day has come
when we should stop talking about
gold Democrats or Silver Demo
Gratis. The man who is continually
bowling about gold and silver is an
enemy of the Democratic party. Let
US get together, therefore, for there Is
big field of labor before us"

THE PUBLISHER TO BLAME,

Ed. L. LUCKNOW, president of the
Wisconsin Press Association, says
in the last issue of his paper, The
Sank County Democrat:
another publisher has come to the
conclusion that it grows mOnOtOnOus
to run newspaper just for fun. In
the future the publisher of the Lodi
Enterprise will charge for resolutions,
poetry, cards of thanks, notices of
sociables, ETC., at the rate of five cents
per line. In many cases publishers
kick because they do not receive pay
for such notices, but they should not
blame the people who naturally take
al the free advertising they can get.
It's the publisher who is to blame for
not placing a value on his services
and advertising space"
There is, we are glad to say, a
growing appreciation on the part of
the public of the value of newspaper
space. The rule adopted by the news
paper publishers of Platteville, Min
eral Point and other cities and towns
throughout the state, to charge for ali
matters which have not a distinct news
value, has met with general favor.
The Democrat few years ago drew
the line on travelling shows, theatres
and the like, requiring the managers
to paw cash for all advertising
notices; and the result has been most
satisfactory. In fact the publisher
who fails to rightly distinguish be-
tween what should be printed as news
and what should be classed as adver-
Using. is no longer considered in
good standing with the newspaper fra
ternity.
To gain and hold large circula-
ton for a local newspaper requires
wears of earnest persistent effort;
aud when secured, subscribers should
be fairly dealt with and furnished
with the best newspaper that 1t is pos
sible to give them. a newspaper can
not be issued without money; and 1t Is
reasonable and just for the publisher
to demand pay for advertising OF all
kinds.
We gladly print free brief an
nouncements of marriages and deaths,
but would discourage extended notices
of either.
It only took ten words to announce
in The New York Sun the death of
its great editor Charles A. Dana;
and herein is a wholesome lesson for
local newspaper publishers and cor
respondents.
Marriages are always in order; and
so are brief announcements OF them
for publication; but long drawn out
particulars and fulsome praise OF the
parties at interest, are out OF place,
and are often a disadvantage to the
persons intended to be complimented.
We want .to print the news in as
short and satisfactory form as pos
sible, and to publish paper repre-
sentative of the highest and best inter
est of the community. We solicit the
contribution for our columns of sug-
gestions ard articles which will aid in
the work. But where special benefits

STORY OF A STOVE.
How 1t Changed From Surliness to
GeniaIity and Good Behavior.

How 1t Changed From SurIiness to
GeniaIity and Good Behavior.
There was once a stove that stood in
the sitting room of a little house. 1t
was a new stove fresh from the store.
The new stove looked around and
made up its mind it didn't like the
place and wouldn't stay. 1t wouldn't
even speak to the tall desk in the cor
ner or to the old red couch near by.
1t was just going to be as cross as it
could be. Then the lady would send
it home to the store, thought the stove.
Pretty soon the lady came in and
said, This is such cold day that we
must have a good hot fire in our new
stove" SO the cook brought in lots Of
coal and wood and newspapers and put
them into the stoye-first the papers to
make blaze, then the pieces of wood
laid across one another and lastly the
coal. Then she lit the paper and shut
the stove door and went away, but the
lady sat down to sew and to watch the
fire burn.
But the fire wouldn't burn. You see,
the stove was so cross and sulky it just
wouldn't warm up the room. So after
long while the lady suddenly found
the room was just as cold as ever, and
she wondered, why doesn't that stove
burn up?"
And the naughty stove chuckled to it
self and thought what fine trick it
was playing.
Then the lady opened one little door
in the. stove and shut another and pull
ed out one knob and pushed in another
and shook the stove good and said,
'Now, you'll burn" Then she sat
down again to sew.
The stove didn't like to be shaken
one bit, and it grumbled to itself, "I'll
teach her how to shake mew And it
began to burn and burn and burn and
get redhot, it was so angry, and made
the room so warm that the lady had to
jump up in a hurry and open all he
windows.
Then she poured on some more coal
and shut some more doors in the stove
| and went out Of the room. And when
she was gone the stove had time to
think. SO it looked around the room
! once more and thought: ut isn't such
a bad room after all. Guess I'll stay"
And it began to talk to the desk and
| the couch real sociablelike.
And when the lady came back she
found a nice warm fire, and the stove
was smiling all over with happiness
