Shade Trees for Court House Yard.

The County Board have at last
awaken to the fact that our beautiful
grounds around the County House,
would look nicer if fine row of shade
trees was planted around it, and Aug
ust Bruss, was given the contract for
the plant ting of the trees. Mr.. Bruss
spent over two weeks in the hardwood
belt gathering the trees, and secured
100 fine Elms which are now set out
around the grounds.
Ii shade trees had been set out a
few years ago, we could now boast of
the prettiest Court house yard in this
state, but it will only be a few
years before the trees Just set out will
be throwing out shade to the tired
and weary who wander that way.
Our citizens can congratulate Mr.,
Hirzel for taking the initiative step in
planting the trees, also Mr.. Bruss de-
serves credit for the fine trees he Sc
cured and the manner in which they
have been planted. All of Villas coun-
ty citizens will heartily sanction the
good work the Board has done in hav-
ing the trees planted.

Webster z. Brown, candidate fer
Congress, is entitled to every republic
can vote in the district for many
reasons. He is one of the working
men, He began his career working
as laborer. He so contained until
opportunity came to take charge of
business which enabled him to give
employment to others; he only ceased
to share with them in their toll when
through his management the bust
ness had assumed such magnitude
that it required his entire time as
manager to keep it going. But he
never forgets that he is laboring
man placed by force of circumstances
in position to give some hundreds of
workers chance to earn a livelihood.
In all his operations he has never been
charged with being oppressive or ex-
acting. There has never been even a
symptom of trouble over wage or hour
questions n his camps, mills or yards.
Every man in his employ is always
at liberty to report his grievance, if
he has one, and it is carefully listened
to and any wrong is righted without
delay. These statements cannot be
challenged. He is entitled to the
unanimous labor vote of this district.
Mr.. Brown is thoroughly loyal to
the interests of his district, and from
his experience in conducting enter
prises and his wide business acquaint-
ance he is probably better informed
NJ oY.
man. So careful and faithful has
been his attention, SO thorough his
work that no democratic campaigner
has ever offered any criticism in this
regard.
On all national issues Mr.. Brown is
loyal to the doctrines of the Bepubli-
can party. While hims large en-
ployer of labor and an extensive deal
er in it's products, he opposes all mon
opolistic trusts and combines by
voice and vote. He believes in pro-
tecting laborers and producers from
ruinous competition from abrood, and
in protecting laborers, producers and
consumers from oppression by mono
poles at home. He is thoroughly
loyal to the lines OF policy advocated
by President Roosevelt on the great
financial and economic questions now
before the people.
Representative Brown has by his
course in Congress proven his fitness
for the position. He has established
an enviable reputation in Congress.
His experience, acquired knowledge
of Congressional methods and the
standing he has gained will but add
to his efficiency, Vote for Brown.

CUBA PUSHES TREATY ALONG
Congress VIII Consider Commercial
Arrangements with This
Country soon.

HAVANA, Oct. 16-Business men who
have been called in to consult with Presi-
dent Palma on the proposed Cuban-Amer-
ican commercial treaty feel assured the
cabinet will approve the proposition and
that IL will be sent to congress within a
few days for adoption.
There Is some fear that the radical ele-
ment in congress will object to approving
any commercial treaty without first settling
the question OF coaling stations and with
out being informed clearly Of the intentions
of the United States With regard to the en-
forcement OF the Platt amendment
The commercial treaty submitted to Cuba
by Washington is practically the Bliss tariff
schedule, which was drawn up just before
the American military government withdrew
from the island and which leaves the pres
ent duty in force against all other nations,
but gives the United States preference of
from 20 to go per cent. In return the
United States offers Cuba a reduction in
duties of 20 per cent

tions governing the subject have been care
fully enforced and, with a single exception,
cadets have shown soldierly regard for
their obligations. The exception referred to
made a fourth class man assume a con-
strained position and used threatening and
abusive language. to him. For this offense
the cadet was brought to trial by court
martial and dismissed. No one conversant I
with the progress new cadets make appre-
hends any I'll effect in training from the
passing of hazing.
The maximum number OF cadets is 492.
The academic year opens with All cadets,
divided into four classes. One cadet is
from Costa Rico and one from Venezuela.
AS a result Of the examination for admis-
sion during the last year the booming class
was 11S.
