Your Duty.

Every elector will be called upon
tomorrow to exercise his sovereign
right of expressing his choice for the
various officers from President to Cor
oner. There are few who have not
already fully determined how they
will mark their ballots. 1t is not a
matter of convenience to the voter
whether he shall exercise the privilege
of the franchise or ignore lit is a
responsibility, duty, an obligation
that citizenship imposes. Every quail
fled elector owes it to the state that
he shall make faithful use Of the fran
chise and cast his ballot conscientious
ly and with view of promoting the
welfare of the state.
Political parties are necessary and
desira ble Individuals may honestly
differ as to principles and this fact
causes them to support different par
ties. 1t is clearly the duty OF voters
to give their support to the candi-
dates of the party of their choice and
thus support aud strengthen the par
ty organization. Republicans of Vii
as county; make an x at the head OF
the Republican ticket and make GER
tain that your vote will count for ev'
cry candidate.

will mark the opening of the deer sea-
son for the year 1904. Already out
side hunters have commenced to ar
rive, and the home hunters are pre-
pairing to go after the game at the OPP
ening of the season. Those who are
going hunting should take every pre-
caution against danger, and should be
sure and shoot at the game and not
at hunters. AS their IS a heavy fine
in this state for accidental shooting
people while hunting, more care will
no doubt be taken.

A REPLY.

There appeared in the last issue o
the Review communicate ton dated a
Arbor Vitae and signed "a Voter anc
Taxpayer, who criticises an article
which appeared in recent issue o.
the News We, of course, have ne
means Of knowing the name OF the au-
thor Of the communication and re,
grit that we are unable TO address
him by his proper name. The News
has no apology TO offer or excuses to
make to this anonymous writer or to
any of the gentlemen who are candi-
dates on the Democratic ticket and we
submit to our readers that there was
nothing in the article referred to
which in any way reflected on any OF
the candid ties for county offices. We
expressly stated that we had not one
word to say against the character, rep
utation OF ability OF any of the gentle
men nominated on the Democratic
ticket. We did not refer to Mr.. Han
son or Mr.. Mcdonald as ''beasts," we
simply stated that the convention,
which placed them in nomination, in
tended to use them as beasts of bur-
den to convey votes from the Repub-
lican party to the candidates on the
county ticket. In other words, the
Democratic County Convention did
not in good faith nominate either Mr..
Mcdonald or Mr.. Hanson and a care
ful reading of the article referred to
will fully justify this construction and
the result of the vote tomorrow will,
in our opinion, furnish conclusive
proof of its correctness.
The anthor of the communication
inquiries about county ''trail" which
cost 500, 100000 and also refers to the
records of the county which disap-
peared from the County Clerks office.
The ''trail'' expense was fully inves-
tigated by the Circuit aud Supreme
courts of the state and the names of
the gentlemen now on the county
ticket and those connected with the
management of this paper do not APP
pear in such proceedings.
If the writer of the communication
will kindly sign his name, we will be
better prepared to give further infor-
nation concerning lost records and
the collection and disbursement Of
county funds.
We have no apology to make for
charging that Felix Burns is not a
resident Of the G. unity and that his
home is in Wausau. We now en-
phatically renew the charge and refer
10 Mr. Burns own statement, made
10 d. E. Riordan in the presence Of
w Fl. Bissell, for proof Of its correct
ness. Mr. Barns will not deny the
conversation or the statements made
by him concerning his family resi-
dence and his right to vote in Villas
county. The right to hold office in
eludes the right to vote.
