In THESE times of intense factionalism,
when man becomes so far involved as
to lose his respect for the supreme court,
he is past all appeals to reason. Such a
one of the ultra type writes editorials
for the Clinton Banner. Hear him:
lone thing is certain, Mr.. LaFollette
is in the field to stay. We do not, of
course, know what decision the supreme
court will make, but whatever it may be
it will not affect Mr.. LaFollette's candi-
dature. He is running, not for personal
ends, but as the champion of certain
principles that have been enthusiastic
ally approved by the party, and which
would have been enacted into law but
for the disloyal conduct of few state
senator's"
Of course the governor has no person
al ends to serve! Only martyrdom, that's
ALL And that's why every office holder
is called upon to get busy to preserve
the martyr.

The petition and Injunction in the
action which is to be brought by the
anti-La Toilette people to secure the
placing in the regular republican column
of the ticket nominated in the Fuller
opera house convention have been pre-
pared. The petition and affidavit will
be presented in the supreme court when
it re- convenes August 9 for its fall term.
The action is in the form Of mandatory
injunction calling upon Secretary of
State Walter Houser to show cause why
the ticket which was nominated in the
Fuller opera house and which has been
declared regular by the republican ma
tional convention should not be put in
the regular republican column on the
official ballot. In the affidavit accom-
panying the petition the facts leading
up to the separation in the gymnasium
convention are set forth together with
the state central committee reports, by
which the governor was given majority
in that convention. The affidavit goes
fully into the contests and gives accu-
rately the basis on which a majority is
claimed by the anti-La Toilette people.

IiA Animals In Captivity.

Are wild animals happy in captiv-
ity:" said the keeper Of the geological
gardens, in answer to question asked
by visitor. well. at first thought it
may sound strange. but they are hap
py, and some of them are very. very
happy.
1T seems to be the general opinion
that when the liberty OF an animal
used to free life in the wild woods is
taken away the animal will pine away
and die. That's a pretty bit of senti-
ment, but apparently it's all wrong.
You would naturally think that a wild
animal in captivity would become dan
gerous but such is not the case.
Take the monkeys, for instance.
They look very unhappy, don't they?
Why, those little imps play from morn
ing till night, and they're as cheerful
as larks, excepting when they are ILL.
Go in the bird house and listen to the
songs, the chirps and trills, then look
around for an unhappy bird. Watch
the bears play and the leopards and
other members Of the cat tribe roll
over each other like little children on

The Strain on the Eye.

There is no reason why a muscle or
muscles of the eye should not be fag-
ged out just as the muscles elsewhere
do. Let one bear weight all day long,
does he not attribute his consequent
headache to the heavy burden he has
borne? 1t seems without, elaborate
thinking we could conceive of the re-
suits following upon prolonged use Of
the eye. Nature has done all she could
to protect and prolong the usefulness
of the eye. No earthly architect ever
yet planned a structure that would not
yield. crumble and fall, and the house
human, so exQuisitely uplifted in curl
Gus and mysterious ways. falls and re-
turns to dust more rapidly and surely
than need be, for the reason that we do
not realize how much one part is sus-
tained or overthrown by another. One
tiny muscle is potent enough to disturb
the whole economy, especially if inter-
current diseases exist in addition to

THE political pendulum of democracy
which swings between plutocracy and
populism by degrees, swung to the plu-
tocracy eide at the st. Louis convention.
After eight years of isms and appeals to
class prejudices the party has gone back
to it's position of twenty and twelve years
ago and caters to Wall street and the
mugwump element of the east. There is
no middle ground in democracy, no con-
servative ideas, no stand that appeals to
the business man, the farmer or the la
boring man. 1t is either the representa-
tive of the bond syndicate, or else of the
populistic theorist who combats the man
with the dollar, whether he be we'll
paid laborer or a prosperous merchant.
It is party of extremists, and one or
the other of its extremes is always domi-

How the Human Corkscrew Works.

MIR. Lincoln Steffens, the famous mag
azine exposer of graft" is the latest
gentleman from the east to favor US with
visit in order to Study the Wisconsin
Situation" says the State Journal. AS
usual both of the factions laid for the
sucker, filled him up with dinners and
lake scenery, and assured him that he
must beware OF the misleading and un-
warranted versions given by the other
side! Stetfens is a little man with
scholars beard, who was city editor of
the New York Commercial until he got
off on this tack of exposing boodling; and
his articles in McClure's have attracted
wide attention.
Unlike most OF the verdants who drift
in with the tide from the Coney Island
district, Steffens had but little to say
though his questions were brutally di-
rect. He had a number of interviews
with the governor, but not until an hour
before Steffens left town Thursday
evening" when the visitor was thorough
ly loaded, did he confront the governor
Sc- the final scorching test. Generaliza-
tons did not interest this human cork
screw; facts, definite charges only had
attractions for him. Thus. when some
of the stalwarts began to tell him of the
appoinsme of friends to Office, Steffens
threw up his hands and said, Don't give
me that; that's only good politics." When
told that LaFollette is ambitious and
dictator, Steffens shut off the flow with
1.-The more [ hear Of your man LaFolletts
the more | am reminded OF Roosevelt"
But when the faithful told him of the
$1,000 school book deal. the refusal to let
his reform measures pass because he
needed them later as campaign meas
ures, and his long distance telephone
setting up contests for the state conven-
ton, Steffens grew silent and said go
on" He was after the names and dates.
His sleuth hound method is shown by
his dealing with LaFollette's we'll known
effort to get support for his primary bill
by promising offices. He got the names
of senators who originally related what
the governor offered them Finally,
when he had all the dates, pinning the
governor down, Steffens said, Governor
LaFollette, is it so, or is it not SO, that on
such and such date you offered Sena-
tor So and-So such an inducement? And
. getting his reply presumably contradict
ing what the stalwarts alleged) Stefens
got on the train bound for Milwaukee
and the north to learn what the sena-
tors themselves involved said. 1855 sr.

self. While admitting the governor an
interesting object, Steffens left the i'm
preston that Rooseveldts confessedly
assumed cordiality was more to his taste.
AS to the Stalwart bunch he said Philip
Spooner was the brains and dealt less in
prejudice and more in details.

ENORMOUS INCREASE IN THE STATE
EXPENSES.
Game wardens Cost Over 100000.

Game Wardens Cost over a. IOo,OpO.
Advance statements of the receipts
and expenditures of the state for the
past year show that the cost of maintain
ing the state government has grown
enormously during the last four years
and that the total disbursements for the
past year have been 81, 147, 4S6.75 more
than they we're four years ago.
The receipts, because Of the increase
in railway taxes under even the present
rates have grown nearly S1,5OO,OOO but
the expenses have kept pace with the
receipts.
The protection of game in Wisconsin
last year cost the enormous sum OF
S1O8OO0 and there is, according to the
figures, in the fish and game fund, but
$378l9. From these figures it can be
judged what it is costing the state to
maintain this immensely valuable polit-
ical reform" bureau. Last year the
disbursements to game wardens amount
ed to $50 ,a9903, and to oil inspectors
$4,000. On June 80 last year there was
a balance of SIG, 633 55 in the game war
den fund. The small balance in the oil
inspection fund at that time was, under
the statutse, covered into the general
iuuO vi tuO SCoIC tiOdSuLJ. LILO 0Ioo
bursements from the game warden g
fund exceeded the receipts by S978.19.
So far as knowp this is the only time
since the game warden department was
organized that the disbursements have
exceeded the receipts. In 1901 the re-
ceipts OF the game warden fund were
S41,051.88 and the disbursements were
S33,695.47. In 1902 the receipts were
$50, 1886 and disbursements $47,O74 66.
In 1903 the receipts were about $4,000
and the disbursements slightly less.
Despite the fact that when the work
was begun it was estimated by the capt.
tai commission that but $50 900 would be
spent in temporary repairs on the CAPT
tai, so far bills on this subject have
amounted to 33,30742 and great many
bills for lumber and other material have
not yet been presented, for payment.
More than this, there is still much work
to be done on the building before even
the temporary repairs are complete and
it is now likely these temporary repairs
will cost $4,000 before they are done.
When it is understood by everybody that
the capital commission included a new
capital is being figured on. as the final
solution OF the problem it can be seen
what the final cost is likely to be before
the new capital is completed.

THE example of Senator Stout is good
enough to follow. He says if the SUI
preme court does not put the stamp of

he will, as law abiding citizen and loyal

for Judge Gober or Hon. N, A. Morris
in this race. We believe that either
one of them is competent and we'll

but to an observer it certainly looks
like land slide to Mr.. Morris. Judge
Gober's most active supporters in this
county concede that if the election
should come off at this time that Mr..
Morris would carry the county by a
large majority
The question, is can it be changed to

continue to grow stronger for Mr..
Morris, as it has been doing for the past
few weeks.

HYOMEI.
Cures Colds, Coughs, Catarrh and Grip.
Just Breathe 1t.

Hyomei is natures own method for
curing catarrh, colds, coughs and dis
eases of the respiratory organs. 1t is
the only natural treatment for the cure
of these troubles.
Breathed through the neat pocket in
haler that comes with each outfit, the
air that passes into the throat and
lungs, is identical with that on the
mountains, where it is laden with heal
ing and health-giving balsams. 1t
searches out and kills disease germs in
the most remote and minute air cells of
the head, throat and lungs, it soothes
and heals all irritation of the mucous
membrane.
Hyomei is prescribed by physicians
generally. Many of them use it them
selves to break up cold and prevent
pneumonia.
The complete Hyomei outfit consists
of neat inhaler, that is so small and
convenient that it can be carried in the
pocket or purse, a medicine dropper
and bottle of Hyomei. This costs but
81, and it will cure any ordinary case of
catarrh. In chronic and deep seated
conditions, longer use is necessary and
extra bottles of Hyomei can be obtain
ed for SOC, making it most economical
treatment for this disease.
G. M. Crosby & Co, have so much
confidence in the power Of Hyomei TO
cure catarrh and other diseases Of the
throat and lungs that they sell it under
their personal guarantee to refund the
money to any purchaser in case it fails
to give satisfaction They take all the
risk themselves, and Hyomei costs you
absolutely nothing unless it does you
