Morgan Does Give Tips.

Kenosha Lawyers Enact Sensational
Scene in the Circuit Court
Room at Racine.
BITTER PERSONALITIES PASSED.
Attorneys Calvin Stewart and Norman L.
Baker, of this City Come to Logger
heads in Racine Court Room.

HFrom all reports the most exciting
scene ever enacted in a court room IN
Racine was enacted there Friday by
Calvin Stewart and Norman L. Baker,
the two well known attorneys of this
city. It would be impossible for any
one but an eye witness to tell the
whole story of the angry war of words
waged between the two men but it was
so exciting that attorneys in other
parts of the house hurried to the
court room expecting a personal en-
counter between the attorneys.
The Racine News, in speaking of
the matter, says:
"Two Kenosha lawyers, Norman l..
Baker and Calvin Stewart, furnished
a great deal of excitement in the Cir
cult court and for time it looked as
though the two men would get together
and a fight and knockout ensue. The
men seemed to fear each other, how
ever. and were satisfied with calling
each other names. Had they gone out
to the courthouse yard and fought the
matter out without gloves there would
have been a number of interested
spectators. The two lawyers returned
to Kenosha, but it is not believed that
one car would be large enough to hold
them. It is probable that the two men
may get together in Kenosha.
"Probably there was never presented
such a scene in the Circuit court room
as that of this morning, when Stewart
and Baker called each other liars in
the presence of Judge Belden. Baker
and Stewart were the legal talent en-
gagged in the case of Elizabeth Mauerer
VS.. Philip Mauerer ct al. The parties
all reside in Keposha county, and
Judge Belden heard the arguments of
the case some two or three weeks ago.
A few days ago Stewart came to Ra-
cine and called upon Judge Belden IN
the Circuit court, and there presented
for his signature the findings IN the
case. It is claimed that Stewart in
formed the Judge that the findings
were satisfactory to Baker and Judge
Belden attached his signature. The
next day Baker came to Racine and
called upon Judge Belden, and then
learned of what had been done. Baker
claimed that he knew nothing of what
Stewart had claimed, and the findings
were by no means satisfactory.
"Judge Be1den was indignant over
the matter and at once sent word to
Stewart to come to Racine and bring
the findings which had been signed.
This morning Stewart came to Racine
aud appeared in court, and Baker was
there also. Judge Belden began to
question the two lawyers and then one
attorney called the other liar and
soon there was war of words. Attor-
neys who were in the other rooms were
attracted by the noise and language
and soon the room was pretty well
crowded. After the quarrel was over
attorneys gathered about in groups
and talked over the affair and some
were inclined to believe that Judge
Belden would fine one or both the at
torneys for contempt of court"

ever turned his back upon the
faithless republican party.
OF all the Colorado delegates
who marched out of that conven-
ton and pledged themselves to
stay out, but one has been true to
himself and his principles-Henry
M. Teller. He carried out the in
structions of his constituents, and
it should be inscribed on his mon
ument that he was the one and
only republican to do so, and to
stand out in that determination
through time and tide. Willingly
or unwillingly, he has been forced
to the democratic side, for in that
party he finds his principles ex>
pressed, while the party Of his
youth has so changed its face and
form with the years as to become
to him stranger.
Would that the republican party
had more men like Henry M. Tel
ler, that they might become demo
Gratis and the democratic party be
given the chance to honor them,
as it proposes to honor this man.
OF course he will be elected, wheth>
er the democratic convention sees
fit to endorse him or not. There
are too few like him, and the party
is too true to its friends to turn its
back on the democrat par excel
lence Of the banner silver state.

Talk About Bu9houses!

Despite the strains OF melody that
waited from the bandstand on Saturday
night, there was very large crowd Of
people on the same corner who we're so
busy listening to the words OF Friend
Nathan and Friend James, two Quaker
doctors. that they scarcely heard one bit
Of the music. The doctors were telling
the throng about their troubles. And
of course they had just the remedy for
each ailment that was brought out.
Friend Nathan claims to be able to heal
the sick, cure the deaf and return sight
to the blind, and says he will demons
trate his ability in the midst OF the pub
lie during his stay in this city.
Ore statement made by the doctor was
that 60 out OF every 70 persons suffered
from tapeworm, and he had specimens
on exhibition which had been removed
by the Quaker medicines. according to
their tale II there was person in the
crowd that did not believe they were
bughouse before the free entertainment
ended, it was because they did not stay
to hear the speeches.
There was Puuch and Judy show, a
professor who did some tirst-class MIN
icry turns, some music and good many

confessed that he didn't know
enough about the question to know
why he was against it, but that his

the fact that through many long

THE SENATORIAL SITUATION.

The problem is presented 10 tne
democratic party in this state
whether it shall set up as a candi>
date for United States senator, next
year, a member from its own ranks
or lifetime republican. Rather a
peculiar situation, but with the ex-
republican pitted against the demo
cratic field, we pick him as sure
winner.
Senator Teller leaves it to the
democratic state convention to de-
eide whether he shall be its nomi>
nee. II not, he states his willing~
ness to retire and seek no further
political honors.
Whether the democratic state
convention shall decide to follow
out this programme is problematl>
cal. 1t is unusual for state cons
ven,ion to name the senatorial
nominee, as the senator doubtless
knows. even though the choice be
beyond doubt. Senators are chosen
by legislatures, and the convention
may think it proper to pass the
matter up to the tribunal where it
belongs, while at the same time
favoring Senator Teller's candidacy.
AS to a democratic legislatures
duty in the premises, we can see
but one fair and honest course to
pursue. That is to elect Senator
Teller, and every democrat should
be proud of the privilege.
The democratic party OF Colo
RADIO has an unusual number OF
strong, brainy men, of splendid
character, capable OF representing
the state with honor in the highest
places. In this respect it far sur
passes the republican party. Such
men as Alva Adams, Charles S.
Thomas, c. ]. Hughes, Thomas J,
O'Donnell and others would hons
or any state which they might rep
resent, and any of them are entitled
to the best gifts at their party's
hands.

and that the past republican,

etc, and in the expansion of bust
ness.
The writer of these lines, a printer,
struck Rock Island early in the
month of November. 1888, direct from
Fall River. in the state of Massa-
chusetts. He knew nobody in that
western city, but had letter of in
production to the late Moses ID. Mer-
rill, himself from New England. later
sheriff of the county and newspaper
publisher. At that time he, with
George Wood. still a citizen of Rock
Island, was doing n canvassing bust
ness throughout the surrounding
country. | lived at Mr.. Merrill's a
portion of the time / remained i'm
Rock Island, later boarding at the
Penns ylvania house, on the river
fornt, kept by Mrs. Early and her
son-in-law, Mr.. Rumsey. Through an
introduction and recommendation by
Mr.. Merrill, / received situation as
pressman and makeup in the nd
vertiser" office, run by Mr.. Whar-
ton, if / do not mistake, who in
formed me that the position offered
me had been held by young man
from Taunton, Mass. in my own
home county, who had given eminent
satisfaction, but had recently de-
ceased. and he would be glad to try
another employee from the same sec
ton. All three of the papers in Rock
Island at that time were printed on
hand presses, the steam power press
not having yet been introduced into
Rock Island printing offices. \
much larger press than was necessary
for the size of the paper printed was
used in the Advertiser office, and one
day was sufficient TO convince the
slender youth from Massachusetts
that the work would be too heavy for
him, and if continued he might go
the way of the young man from
Taunton, so he retired.
His next venture was in The Argus
