The Northwood Anchor believes
when the state convention meets
the question OF supremacy should be
settled between the opposing factions.
1t doesn't pay to have contest every
year. II Governor Cummins and his
friends are to be recognized as repro
senting the sentiments of the majority.
let the convention SO decide: and II ].
w. Blythe and his followers are to
dominate the policy OF the party. they
have right to do so without putting
up scrap every time to get control
Politically there is but mighty little
difference between the factions. but II
is a question of who shall be leader.
Blythe was turned down and out al
Cedar Rapids several, years ago but he
persists in crowding to the front every
campaign. He engineered the CAM
padgns for the late Senator Gear for
many years and was successful be-
cause the people were in love with
Gear. but 1t Is different now. He is
not working for some individual. but
Is attempting to dominate the policy
of the party and the people are not
disposed to permit him to do so unless
he can show he has the majority With
him. His ambition ds to boss the
whole Job" The Anchor wishes he
would run for office, just to prove how
strong following he really has.

The Clinton Herald says "there can
be no peace and harmony in the repub-
lican party in Iowa SO long as Gov.
Cummins remains political factor. for
the reason that his opponents will con-
tinue to fight him, whatever he says or
does. The Herald is convinced that the
figh, is against the governor persona ~
and not against the policies he advo-
Gates. 1t charges the governors eppop-.
ents with breaking the promises made
to him in the peace pact OF last year.
and 1t declares that there Is no rea-
son why he should listen to any more
hypocritical proposals for peace and
harmony"

ODD FELLOWS DANCE.

| The S5th anniversary of the founding
of Odd Fellowship in this country was
duly observed by Wausau Lodge No
2l5 last Tuesday evening A committee
arranged dance at MERGERS hall fol
that evening, and each member was
allowed TO invite one male friend and
lady, using his Judgment for the good
of the order" The result was that a
very large crowd of good and repre-
sentative people accepted the invitations
and were present. The dance was
different from most functions of that
nature, in the fact that it appeared
more like family reunion, and the
ball room, stiffness of manners for once
was dropped. Everybody knew every
body or soon dropped his or her
conventional airs aud assumed that
they knew everybody, and even
the Odd Fellows lost there oddity
for once. The latter had undertaken
the task of entertaining a body of visit
ing gGcsIs and fulfilled their pledge iii
every detail. At the proper time all
were invited to participate in supper
which was served with such lavishness
that if any one went home hungry ii
was because they were chronic dyspep-
ties. The Odd Fellows society was
first organized IN England several
generations ago, but it was not until
April gath, 1919, that the first lodge
was established in the United states.
at the present time its members are
above the million point IN number, and
fast increasing. 1t is said that the
social Tuesday evening bas resulted in
quite number OF applications for
membership being presented to the
local lodge.

"We are on our return from winter
in California, and have enjoyed the
season Immensely" said George F.
Bells, VINO il company with Mrs. Bells,
were at the Plankinton yesterday.
California is certainly the land of sun
shine and flowers and it grows more
beautiful TO me on each recurring trip.
II has been my plan to make my head
quarters in some city or town and then
make side trips into the country by
team. In this way Mrs Bells and !
have covered nearly all of the state, and
find thai It adds much enjoyment to the
trip.
with the exception of ap,icots and
possibly peaches, the fruit crop prom
ises well. In fact, growers informed
me that they expected one of the big
gest crops in the history of the state.
''Of course am glad to get back to
Wausau, which is without question the
best town in the country After years
of aetise hotel work, it is a pleasing
change to get away, but | am always
glad to get back to my home and old
