Chairman Griggs Says Next House
" i'll Be Democratic
AND GIVES REASONS THEREFORE.
The Once Encouraging Out Look for
Republicans Vanishing.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 28.-As
Chairman Babcock of the republican
congressional committee, has already
made his claims in the coming con-
gressional elections, Judge Griggs,
chairman of the democratic commit
tee, this afternoon authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
II have no doubt of the election of
a democratic house. Three months
ago it looked like plain sailing for
the republicans. Every week since
the campaign opened, however, demo-
cratic faith has strengthened and the
republican confidence has weakened.
"Three months ago modest claim
for hope of democratic success this
fall was met with smile of incred-
ulity from our foes and a shrug of
doubt from our friends. Not so now.
The republican. managers claim the
house, but by very small margin,
indeed, and many intelligent republi-
cans admit grave doubt as to the
result.
"Our democratic friends are wide
awake, alert and enthusiastic every
where. Not so with our republican
freinds, if we are to believe reports
from republican campaign orators.
The republicans are apathetic and list
less, not to say careless of results
everywhere. The republicans are not
only not enthusiastic over their pros
poets, but practically admit defeat by
their concessions of large democratic
gains on an apportionment made with
the express purpose and expectation of
adding nineteen republicans and ten
democrats to the house; and with such
gerrymandering by the republican
state legislature as has never been seen
before.
Mr.. Babcock estimates that the re-
publican majority in the house will be
less than at present, but greater than
that of the last house, which was thir-
teen.
I'm the most of the states" he
says, 'there will be light vote, and
all our speakers have reported consid-
erable apathy. This has marked the
political meetings on both sides The
country is more prosperous than ever
before in its history and the farmers
have had unexampled crops. There
fore, everyone has been too busy to
take much interest in politics, assum-
ing that the country could take care
of itself. However, there has been
an awakening of interest, and l look
for heavy vote

He Hit Ii Right.

A few weeks ago when the Progress
said that Thos. NJ. Ferguson, the Real
Estate Agent, was quietly building a
town at Bassfeld, Covington county,
that impressed the public as an un-
usual wav TO build town, but since
we have learned more of his methods.
we see where he was right. AS he had
located the town where the people in
the surrounding conntry wanted it,
and as soon as the lots were put on the
market, the homefolks bought and
paid hundred or more, and at once
began building houses
Bassfield is only three weeks old and
we are reliably informed quite a nice
lot of houses are being built, one saw
mill and two turuentiue distilleries
have been located; lots have been
donated for the Baptist Methodist and
Catholic churches each, also desir
able lot for public school building
and considerable money pledged to the
building 81 school house. So afte,
all. IL seems that Ferguson knows how

FRATERNAL WORK.

Another incident has transplred that
proves that fraternal organization is
more than the name only. Last spring
Herman Manthie, an employee of the
Wausau Excelsior Co, received injuries
while at work in that company's plant,
from the effects of which he died. He
carried 5000 insurance in the Modern
Woodmen society, but his widow, who
was the beneficiary, being an inmate of
the Oshkosh insane asylum, there was
no one to pay the funds to. A commit
tee consisting of c. B. Bird, VIM Wat
erhouse and VIM. Hett placed the
money in the bank to the credit of the
orphaned children, saw that they were
properly clothed, fed, cared and provid-
ed for, aud even went further. Mr.
Manthie was man of some property,
but at the time of his death there were
several entanglements in his business
affairs that needed Strengthening and
this these gentlemen did. The final
settlement and adjustment of the estate
was due TO their efforts, and for these
services they refused to accept any
compensation. The local camp of NJ
w A. is in receipt of letter from
Hon. Henry Miller, county Judge, which
is carefully and tastefully worded, in
which he reviews the work done by the
committee and expresses his thanks for
the assistance rendered him as county
judge. Fraternity as thus expressed
cannot be practiced too often.
