tunity to express their Judge
ment as they would like.
For these reasons it is alto
together probable and likely that
an early Congressional Conyen-
ton will be held in this district.
It is also probable that many
other districts in the state,
where the congressman are no
participants in the state fight,
will adopt the same method of
procedure. 1t is fair to the
Congressman and also fair to the
candidates for state offices.
One ought not to be entangled
with the other, but both matters
should go before the people
separately on their merits.

TT has been definitely settled
that the Wisconsin Republican
League will stand by their col
ors and support Mr.. Whitehead
as their candidate for governor.
And this is exactly as it should
be. Every political movement
should have head, and the
League stands as the head for
what is commonly called the
"Stalwart" branch of the Repub-
lican party in this state. A
great many people are in SYM
pathy with its plans, and except
for few the movement to nom
mate Mr.. Whitehead met with
approval. The organization did
the only proper thing in adher-
ing to their original purpose of
supporting the GAINESVILLE man.
OF course there will be other
candidates in the field, and Sec
rotary of State William Fl. Froe-
Itch, perhaps the leading Ger
man republicans of the State
would like the nomination.
There can be no objection offered
to Mr.. Froelich, and if Mr.. White
head cannot win then the Secre-
tary would be an acceptable sec
ond choice. The fight for
Whitehead will go merrily on un-
til the convention names it's
choice, and we belive now, as we
have believed all along, that
Whitehead will be the next re-
publican standard bearer.

THERE has been a some talk Of

OppOSltlOn TO the return Ol sen
ator John G. Spooner to the sen
ate, but in all the months this
talk has been going on we have
not yet found in all the news
paper paragraphs single para
graph or item, giving a reason
why Mr.. Spooner should not be
returned to Washington. Mr..
Spooner undoubtedly stands in
toe light Of some ambitious re
publicans, and these are the ones
that insist the Senator cannot
change his mind regarding the
statement publised by him a
year ago. It is true that Mr..
Spooner at that time said that he
would not again be a candidate
for another term as Senator, and
said also that he would not allow
the use of his name for the posi-
ton. People well knew when
that statement was made that
it was prompted entirely by fam
lily reasons, and was made in all
sincerity It is altogether pro-
bable that reasons which then
existed do not exist today, and
that the Senator has about de-
cided that if the people of Wis
consin speak in his favor and
that they certainly will, that he
will accept a reelection. Mr..
Spooner has represented the
state of Wisconsin on a grander
and more magnificent scale than
any other man who has proceed
ed him. His record is great,
and no Senator in the entire Sen
ate ranks higher than he. Not
even his opponents can urge a
reason or an argument against
him, but they harp and howl that
he has said he would not go back
to the Senate, and for that reason
they do not wish him returned.
Their argument is absolutely no
argument at ALT is the small.
est kind of politics working
against the biggest interests of
the people of Wisconsin. Mr..
Spooner has maintained dis
Greet silence as to his intentions,
and has not become entangled in
the factions. The people will no.
doubt ask his return to the Sen
ate, and he will accept their CALL
News from Washington to the
daily press is to the effect that
there is a general movement on
foot to hold Congressional conven-
tions early, and it is altogether
probable that the conventions in
the Wisconsin districts will be
held within a few weeks at
least before the state campaign
is opened in earnest. There is
very good reason for this, and
particularly in a number of the
districts this district among
the rest. Congressman John J.
Jenkins has avoided taking any
part in the factional fight that
is now gong on in the state, and
is not classed with either wing of
the fighting factions. Further
than that the Congressman is
not going to tangle up in the
middle, and he is putting in all
his time in Washington attending
to the public business, andIbuild-
ing up a record for himself of
which his friends and the dis
trict may well feel proud. His
position has been studiously
aloof from the factional differ
ences, and he is candidate if the
people want him, strictly on his
record. There should be no en-
tanglement of the Congressional
and state affairs, as their is moth
ing conflicting in the two
branches of the state politics.
Mr.. Jenkins has warm friends
and supporters in both of the
factions and it is their desire
that they be permitted to give

The indications all point to a
very successful season in the
business world about Chequame-
gon bay. The numerous saw
mills will all keep pounding
away at their full capacity this
season, and the amount of ship
ments to be made by water will
perhaps be about on an average
with last year. Perhaps the
shipments will be even heavier
than in the past year, but in any
event it is certain that the Long
shoresmen will find plenty Of
boat work. The elevator and
coal docks will likely increase
their business this year as COM
pared with last. In addition to
these things the agricultural
surroundings and the rapid
advance in the prices in lands,
ETC., are making their effect felt.
It may be well said that things
are looking up considerable, and
that the season gives every evil
dence of pretty good sort of
times.

EVERY northern Wisconsin

should attend the meeting of the
North Wisconsin Press 'Associ-
alton at Menomonie, beginning
next Monday. The Association
is in healthful condition, and
President Ed. L. Peet and the
people of Minomonie have left no
stone unturned to make the
meeting a great success. All
that is left to be done is for the
editors and publishers, and their
wives and sweet hearts to all
turn out and push matters along.
The Association is certainly
accomplishing a very good pur
pose, and can do still more. We
believe the present meeting will
be absolutely the Ibest one held,

only be of interest but of great

LII Hung Chang Did Not Give Credit,
to an Official Working for
Nothing.

When Mr.. IRE was lord provost of
Glasgow, Scotland, Ii Hung Chang
was on his tour of the world. The
great Chinese statesman was the
guest of the Scottish metropolis and
was taken for a sail down the Clyde,
so that he might see the shipping and
the docks of that famous water
way. 1t fell to Mr.! Ure as the dep
uty chairman of the Clyde harbor
trust to conduct the illustrious stran-
ger and show him all the works of the
trust, and the works are many, for
the old saying is true enough, "The
Clyde has made Glasgow and Glas-
gov has made the Clyde"
"How much," asked Ii, "do you get
for managing all this"
He was told in reply that there was
no salary and that the craftsmanship
was a position of much honor and
dignity. An i%ncredulous look passed
over the oriental's face and his keen
eye fastened on a magnificent dia-
mond pin Mr.. Ure was wearing. Adj
vancing toward that gentleman, he
put his finger on it with a look of
triumph: "Where, then, did you get
that?"

The HERMIT THRUSH,

When twilight's hush
Falls on secluded wood and lonely hill,
1T Is the thrush
Whose song, calm as the night. rings
heavenward,
And dies away along the dewy sward.
1t rises free,
And bears serenely down the darkening
day
Life's rhapsody,
The mingling light and shadow of the
Too sad for joyousness, too sweet for
tears.
A vesper song-bird singing,
The calm forgetfulness of joy. too sweet
For wildwood voices to repeat,
Is rising skyward with thy song
Whose liquid sweetness fingers long
Upon the night air ringing.
The night is nigh;
The woodland signs for thee, the breezes
call
Again thy cry
Floats out across the dusk that waits for
thee,
And the rapt strains of thy rare min
strelsy.
No more thou singest,
To some dark tangle of the forest depths
Thy flight thou wingest; .
Where vaulted arches echo to thy tones,
The pine tree shivers and the night wind
means.

Monsieur Santos-Dumont, writing a
description of his own airships, points
to a fact which may be new to the gen
eral public. Although he employs a
balloon filled with hydrogen, yet his
machine is so ballasted as to make its
total weight heavier by some pounds
than the weight of the volume of air
it displaces. Consequently it cannot
rise by the unaided effort of the spin
dle-shaped balloon. The aeronaut is
able to shift the center Of gravity, and
when he wishes to rise he cants the
forward end upward and sets the pro-
peller in motion. The airship thus
ascends on an inclined atmospheric
plane, and if the propeller is stopped
it descends gently toward the earth by
its own weight. The inventor AYERS
that he has thus combined the prin-
ciples Of the balloon and tie eero.

WILL HAVE A MODEL RULER.
Prince Ferdinand, of Austria, and the
0nerOus Task hich Awaits
Him as Emperor.

Of the many distinguished strangers
who assembled here for the o
ton, one of the most interesting-per-
sonally the least known, too, perhaps
is the Austrian emperor's represen-
t~ative, Franz Ferdinand d'Este. For
he is at once the future sovereign of d
great empire and the hero of u ro-
nance, the hope of an important polit-
ical party, and IA willing tool in the
hands of a clever woman, says the
London World. Sooner or later he will
be called opportunities the fates with
their shears intervene-to play Il role
of almost Incompatible difficulty.
AS emperor of Austria, king of Hun
gary, and ruler of Bohemia, Galizia,
Dalmatia, Croatia, and any number of
other states, he will have to hold the
balance even among some dozen rival
nationalities, each one with a taste for
flying at the throat of its ne.ghbors.
lie must spend his life-he has no
choice in the matter if he be emperor
trying to do the impossible, trying to
reconcile interests that clash, and in
duce people who hate one another to
throw in their lot together Loyalty.
Among his subjects he will have Pan
Germans and Pan-Sluvs, evangelicals
of the narrowest type, and ultramon-
tanes of the most eXalte-men to
whom the pope is the abomination of
denominations, and men to whom he
stands as the emblem of all that is
holy. He will have among them, too,
republicans and absolutists, progress
sives and reactionarics, constitutional
lists, anarchists and socialists; and on
him will fall the duty of keeping peace
among the lot. With such a work be-
fore him, little wonder he looks de
pressed sometimes, and is more prone
to sigh than to laugh.
Franz Ferdinand is the eldest son Of
the Austrian emperor's brother, the
late Archduke Karl Ludwig, IL man of
great talents and great virtues, whose
life was wasted completely because he
was out of touch with his times. Had
he lived in the fifteenth century he
would, no doubt. have been a shining
light; in the nineteenth, he was an an
achronism. Even in Austria he was
looked on askance owing to the way
he used to rail against all things mod

LANGUAGE OF THE TRANSVAAl
FITS Crudities Crop Out In the Queer
Names Given to Towns and
Localities.

The Taal is not a literary language
It is essentially a sermo plebeius, a
degeneration from the mother Dutch.
Yet it is rugged and forcible as one
might expect from the lips of rough,
uncultivated men, living practically in
isolation from civilized life and read
ing but one book-the Bible. Some OF
their place-names, therefore, have a
certain homely picturesqueness, says
the Scottish American. Waschbank,
for example, is the common name
given to a country covered with
white quartz, looking at a distance
like clothes stretched out to dry.
Zuurberg is the term applied to billy
slopes covered with sour pasturage,
while Zoeteyeld is the expressive term
given to open country where the grass
is sweet. Koudeveld (cold field) is ap-
piled to any high region, while Bokke-
weld and R%oggeveld respectively de-
note the suitability of the soil for rails
ing focks of goats and crops of rye.
Occasionally, however, the result is
for from pleasing. Stinkhoutboom is
another atrocity, and Sour Flats is yet
a third. 1t is not surprising that those
dwelling in the neighborhood have
now transformed the last named into
Balmoral, rushing wildly, as those
w~hochange their names frequently do,
from the prosaic to the majestic.

Mr.. Wilkins, whose pursuits are lit

"Good girl for light housework; rea-

The next morning at 6:15 the vii.

with spectacles, relates the Portland

Mrs. Wilkins went to the door.

most self-sufficient thing if ever"

"Didn't you advertise that you
wanted a place." she asked.
"Hardly. advertised that l wanted

The oma pulled a copy of the pa
per from her handbag and pointed at
the "small adj" columns. Then it was
that Mrs. Wilkins saw that her adver-
tisement had been placed in the "situa-
tons wanted" column. She didn't say
much just then, but when. after an.
swering SO calls at the door-bell and

looked her over with the air of an en-
ployer, she locked the front door and
