HONOR FOR RAHR.
Louis F. Rahr, of This City, is Invited to
Deliver the Memorial Address.

Deliver the Memorial Address.
Louis F. Rahr, of this city, who is
just completing his senior year at the
University of Wisconsin has been in
vited by the members of the Madison
Post of the Grand Army to deliver the
annual memorial address at the State
Capitol on May 80. On each Memoir.
ial day great meeting is held in the
Assembly Chamber at the Capitol and
one of the rising orators of the Stateis
selected to deliver the address.
The honor is high one to be con-
ferred on so young man and the
friends of Mr.. Rahr will be pleased to
congratulate him on his success. 1t is
possible that he will not be able to ac-
cept the offer as the press of work for
the senior year is so great that much
of his time is already taken up.
Mr.. Rahr has made a record as an
orator at the University. He has rep
sesented Wisconsin in number of
oratorica1 contests and debates and is
now the President of the Oratoria1 and
Debating League of the University.

If properly enforced the law provid-
ing commission to control the police
and fire departments will do wonders
with both. If the spirit as we'll as the
letter of the law is lived up to politics
will cut very little figure in either de-
partment after the commission gets to
work. It was the design of the trainers
of the law to eliminate politics if pos
sible and to that end the law provides
that the commission shall be as
nearly non-partisan as it is possible to
make it. No party is to have ma
iority representation in the commits
sion, and if the commission does its
duty the political affiliations of the ap-
plicants for positions in either depart
meut will have nothing to do with their
appointment. Character and efficiency
will be the only qualifications neces-
sary. Men will be chosen rather for
their special fitness to do the work re-
quired than for their political pull. In
the police department the knowledge
that the officers are responsible to the
commission alone and not dependent
upon the favor of some small political
boss for their places ought to work
wonders. Any one at all familiar with
the workings of the police department
under the present order of things
knows how often the officersi are ham
pered in the discharge of their duties
by the fear that the arrest of a protege
of some alderman may cost them their
places. It is no unusual thing to hear
a criminal threaten to have an officer
fired" Under the new regime this
sort of thing will all be done away
with and the officers will soon learn
that their places are dependent upon
the way they perform their duties and
not upon the dexterity they display in
avoiding trouble with the constituents
of the powers that be. Much will de-
pend upon the personnel of the COM
mission, but since no party is to have
a majority all parties will naturally
wish to put their best foot forward, so
to speak, and the commission in all
probability will be made up Of the best
representatives Of each party.

PEDRO GONZALES ARRESTED
Accused Of Stealing Horses at Divers
Times and Places.

J. W. Ambrose has made complaint
in Justice Robertson's court. accusing
Pedro Gonzales OF stealing various and
sundry horses OF him. most of which
are mules. The complaint says that on
the fourth day of this month the ac-
cused stole two yearling horse mules
of a sorrel complexion and valued at
sos. On the tenth instant he appro-
priated a large bay mare value at $50.
BY this time it occurred to Mr.. Am
brose that he had better do something
to restrain Gonzales or he would soon
be out of the horse business entirely.
a warrant was therefore issued TO
Sheriff Cook who rubbered around in
the vast aggregation of paisanos who
attended the celebration yesterday till
he found the man he wanted and
brought him before the Wall street
magistrate. The preliminary eXamina-
ton was set for Friday morning at II
o'clock and bond was fixed at 5000
That was 5000 more than Pedro had
left at the time so he went to jail.

Obituary.

Mrs. Ludwig Bartlett, mother of
Fred and Louie Bartlett, Mrs. Fred
Tremmel and Mrs. Carl Kluver,
died at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. Tremmel on Saturday morning
May 2, 1908.
Mrs. Bartlett whose maiden name
was Bertha Seidelman was born in
Pommen, Germany, Feb. 10Th, 1923.
March 18th, 1850, she was united in
marriage to Ludwig Bartlett. To
hem were born two sons and three
daughters, one daughter having
died in infancy.

their family came to America and
settled in Iowa county, Iowa. In
1882 they came to Audubon county,
which was their home until death
removed the mother to the home
above.
For more than fifteen years these
aged people have lived with their
daughter, Mrs. Fred Tremmel. It
was the pleasure of the writer to
often meet this saint of the Lord
and talk with her and we always
found her with the same steadfast
faith and trust in God. Her faith
was we'll founded and her hope was
indeed IAN anchor to the soul both
sure and steadfast." And she
patiently waited for the coming of
the Master, death was no surprise
to her.
The funeral services were held at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Tremmel,
on Monday. May 4th. The funeral
services were conducted by Rev.
H. L. Wissler assisted by the
Congregational choir and the body

terry.
