Highland and Its Mines.

Weekly Press: Very little OF late
has been said about Highland and its
mines. Not that there was nothing to
be said, but the crowding OF other
matter has Internationally crowded
out news items pertaining to the
towns industry. One item that un-
doubleday will prove II source OF In
terest to our readers Is that during
the months OF October and November
1904, 100 pounds of dry bone ore was
shipped from the mines of Lewis Il
Lynch, and 1t is estimated that there
remains yet In the ground subject to
carting 100000 pounds. With such
information for ones consideration,
there should be little hesitation on the
part OF Highland citizens to fully real
lie the efficient and beneficial good u
railroad into the town would prove.

Jack London's New Novel.

Jack Londou's new novel 1.-THE Sea
Wolf" begins in the January Cen
fury. The story is told in the first
person. 1t opens with collision in
San Francisco bay which throws
Humphrey.,Van Weydcn into the
power of Wolf Larsen, the wild,
brutal captain, who picks him up and
whose evolution the story works out.
As Mr., London's other tales have
done, 1.-THE Sea Wolf" deals with the
life he knows. He was born in San
Francisco, and his boyhood was
passed on u ranch. He left home at
fifteen, spent two years on the bay and
among the wharves of San Francisco
as salmon fisher, oyster pirate, fish
patrolman and longshoreman, and at
seventeen shipped before the mast.
His education he picked up as he
could, and because he was hungry for
books he found them-good ones, too
in many unlikely places. At pres.
ent he is living on the Piedmont Hills,
overlooking san Francisco bay, and
much OF his writing Is done on his
yacht.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER "a, 1903

The Democrat rejoiced exceedingly
when the makers OF the last Democratic
state platform came out boldly against
the compulsory primary election
scheme and against the taxation OF
credits. Now comes Senator Merton,
speaking before the Jefferson club OF
Milwaukee, and declares that ;" The
underlying principle OF primary
election law Is good democratic doc
trine," and also strongly advocates
the taxation of credits. Senator Mer-
ton did some good things In the last
session OF the legislature; but In his
present contention he Is utterly wrong.
In the matter OF tax alton the advice OF
the tax commission should be follow
ed and simple law enacted exempt
ing credits, which would prevent
double taxation and reduce the rates
OF interest. What the people OF Wis
consin most need In the way OF cleo
tion laws Is revision and repeal and
not q multiplicity OF statutes.

PRINCIPLES, NOT DETAILS.

In an article dispelling Senator
Mer.on's delusion that the compul-
sorry primary election scheme Is In
accord with democratic principles, the
Milwaukee Journal lays down this
sound doctrine:
'Parties are necessary concommit-
ants OF free citizenship. They are
creatures Of the uncontrolled will OF
the people. They are voluntary Or
ganlzations. Democracy stands for
the highest personal liberty consistent
with good order. IL limits the func-
lions Of government In that respect to
preventing one citizen from infringing
on the equal rights Of another.
"Parties, therefore, should be free
to organize as they please and con-
duct their own affairs, the power OF
the state being exercised only to pun
ish fraud and preserve order. There
is no reason why party, II IL pleased,
should not adopt the primary method
Of recording It's decision, M has been
done In many states. But that Is the
function of the party, not the state.
And again. when the state has inter-
vened In the affairs OF party, what
can hinder the party from holding Its
caucuses and conventions as IL has
done, but before the state ordered pri-
mariesY The party cannot rightly be
deprived OF It's natural and essential
liberty to manage It's own affairs.
1t liz, then, not the method which Is
Objectionable TO democratic doctrine,
but the interference OF the state where
IL has no business. Methods are de-
tails; issues are incidental; but prin'
clples stand

RICHARD MARTIN DEAD.
Expires at His Home on the East
Side Thursday Evening.

Side thursday Evening.
Richard Martin, another old resi-
dent of the city of Galena, died at his
home on the East Side at half-past
eight Thursday evening, In the Slst
year OF his age.
Mr.. Martin was born in Cornwall,
England, in July, 1923. When twenty
years OF age, like many other young
men Of his country, he emigrated to
America, settling at Mineral Point In
the year l843, and engaged In the bust
ness OF mining. When the California
fever broke out he left Mineral Point
search of gold, In which he was quite
successful. Returning he visited his
old home In England, but soon re-
turned and relocated In Mineral
Point. He came to Galena In 1856 and
had lived here ever since. While liv-
ing In Galena he was for number OF
years engaged In the lumber and grain
business, from which he retired twenty
five years ago, and has lived retired
ever since. In 1857 he was united in
marriage at Hazel Green to Miss Car
oline Edwards, daughter OF the late
John Edwards, who survives him. He
Is also survived by the following
named children: Mrs. Caroline How
ell, OF Chicago; George Il. Martin, of
this city; Percy Martin, a trained
nurse in the female school at Norris
town, New Jersey; Ida Martha, Frank
Martin and Mabel Martin, of Galena;

fraudulent butter and Is not intended
for any natural product. The whey
butter, when made In the usual man
any other butter. but II II Is adulter-
ated it becomes liable to the tax.
1.-The inquiry has developed the fact
that the manufacture OF whey butter
In the county Is more extensive than
was supposed. The butler Is the
product OF the Swiss and brick cheese
factories and is made from cream that
Is left In the whey by reason OF the
process OF making these varieties of
cheese, considerable butter fat being
left in the whey, which would other
wise be lost.
1.-THE making OF whey hutter has al
ways been practiced by cheesemakers
here. A cheese factory produces In a
season from fifty to seventy-fve tubs
weighing from fifty to sixty pounds.
The average price OF the butter Is IL
cents pound. IL Is shipped out Of
the county In car loads and Is bought
by bakers, confectioners and hotels,
and Is used mostly for cooking. A
great amount OF 1t Is consumed here
and the butter that IL we'll made is
good and wholesome and is used for
table butter by farmers.
"The butter as rule, however, Is
not used for table butter on account
Of its cheesey flavor. The quality Of
this butter, the same as all other but
ter, depends upon the making and the
tact that 1t might sometimes contain
more OF moisture than the law allows
ls not its worst fault, but some cheese
makers do not take the proper care in
making 1t, and through being slovenly
aud filthy are not liable to get the best
quality"

WHEY BUTTER.
Not Subject to Internal Revenue
Tax.

Not Subject to Internal Revenue
Tax.
A report has been quite extensively
published that under recent ruling
of the revenue department what Is
known as whey butter would be here
after subject to n tax Of ten cents per
pound. The Monroe Times OF Mon
day, December 81, says that this re.
port Is erroneous and publishes the
following article which tells what whey
butter is and the uses TO which 1t Is
applied;
"John Luchsinger, who is Mt the
head of the local cheese board, made
an investigation and assures the man
ufacturers and dealers In cheese that
there Is no ruling except that which
applies TO any other butter. He found
that neither the Internal revenue de.
partment or the dairy and food com.
missioner knew anything about an or
der OF that kind, and he Is satisfied
that there Is no law that will interfere
with the sale and manufacture of this
kind of butter unless fraudulent means
are used to increase its weight.
according To Mr.. Luchsinger the
tax is intended for renovated butter
or any butter with which u foreign
substance Is mixed causing 1t TO alb
sorb moisture to an extent exceeding
the lawful maximum Of IL per cent.
The law, he says, is intended TO hit

IOWA AND WISCONSIN.

An observant correspondent writes
to the Democrat as follows:
"a press dispatch published Sunday
brings news that ought to be Of great
comfort to Governor In Toilette, as IL
may convince him that the fears that
he entertained In his county fair
speeches were groundless, and his
sympathy for Wisconsin shippers WAS
unnecessary. From this dispatch II
IL learned that the residents OF tho
river towns In eastern Iowa are petit
tlonng their railroad commissioners
to make rates that will put them on u
level with the Wisconsin towns across
the line when they desire to ship to
Milwaukee or Chicago.
4" II what Governor La Toilette said
about Wisconsin being oppressed In
the matter Of freight rates, while Iowa
was on the highway of prosperity on
account OF her railway commissioners
and the rates IL fixed were true, why
should the people Of Iowa be SO anx-
ioas for change and ask their com
missioners to got them n rate that will
allow competition with the concentra.
tion and commodity rates that are
kIhHbcu w w lhiOuhlH Itoplc WiuHuub
question, and voluntarily by the rail-
roads?
"All that can be said Is that the
governor was misinformed when he
talked about the Ills of Wisconsin,
which seem to be blessings whom seen
by Iowa eyes. 1t is II pity that so
much sympathy and SO much eloqnence
should have gone TO waste rs did when
Governor La Toilette took the wrong
figures and tried to convince Wiscon-
sin farmers that their Iowa neighbours
we're so much better off because they
possessed a railroad commission. F."
