Tuesday night City Attorney John
Walsh filed an opinion stating that
there was sufficient petition now
before the city council upon which to
call special election in relation to

strued to be one petition. The cleo

ter is to be again taken up at a ccun-
Gil meeting Saturday night. The
question of purchasing the water

1t has been frequently said that
the exhibit is the best at the fair.

Who IS to be zZssembIyman?

At the repu blican caucuses
next Saturday night the voters
will say whether they wish L.
n. Clausen or Nels Nelson to be-
come the member Of Assem- bly,
from this district.
The assembly district is COM
prised of Bayfield,, Sawyer and
Washburn counties. Washburn
county has candidate, but as
Bayfield, county has more dele
gates in the assem- bly, convention
than both the lower counties the
choice of the republicans of Bay
geld county will be the nominee
of the assembly convention.
Bayfield, county in short controls
the situation, andas the two can
didates are from Washburn the
greatest interest is in this city.
The whole matter naturally re-
solves itself down to the very
simple proposition as to whether
Mr.. Clausen or Mr.. Nelson is the
best fitted and most worthy of
the nomination
The people of Bayfield, county,
and particularly of Washburn,
have known Mr.. Clausen and Mr..
Nelson in public and private life
aud there ought to be no difficult
ty in determining which of the
two they should give their sup
port.
Mr. Nelson lays his particular
claim to the place on the fact that
he is an administration man, that
he has all along supported Gov
ernor LaEollette, while Mr.. Clau-
sen believes he is capable of act
ing for himself in all matters of
legislation that may arise.
Mr.. Nelson says he stands for
equal taxation-that ssGovernOr
La Follette's hobby. Mr.. Clau
sen says he star DIS for the same
thing. Mr.. Nelson says he
stands for a railroad rate COM
mission. Mr.. Clausen stands al
so for the regulation of railroad
rates, but he believes that rail
road rates should be regulated
in a sensible and businesslike
manner, and that it should be
done by the legislative and not
by the governor.
These are practically the two
points upon which the two men
differ. These measures must be
made up by tie coming legisla-
ture in a manner that the people
will approve of. There will be
all sorts of bills introduced to &C.
complish the purpose for which
the people are clamoring. A
railroad rate commission bill
should be made up by legislators
who have the clear faculty of de-
termining between the good and
the bad, between what will be for
the interest of the people and the
shippers. Equal taxation comes
in the same way. These two i'm
portant measures require the
best brains that can be furnished
by the Legislative districts.
Whocan bestfurnish the ability
to deal with these questions?
The legislative session lasts
between three and four months
Every day of the session there
are measures of deep Importance

to the state. There are humid
reds OF matters to arise during
the session. Perhaps fifteen
hundreds bills will be introduced
this winter. Many of these
measures require the most care-s
full study aid the most intelligent
thought. Many of them offer
chance for legislator to ego
wrong" Many Of them favor
interests which ought to be
squelched by the legislature.
1t requires intelligence of a
high order to be a legislator.
ltrequires honesty and incor-
ruptibility to look properly after
thestote's affairs.
1t requires industry and work
to know what is going on.
The man with schemes and in
trigues is discounted at Madison.
The man who has the brand of
factionalism upon him is unfit to
be a fair legislator.
The man who will obey the
orders of a leader is not the man
to send to Madison.
The man who knows how to
think and act for himself is the
man for an assemblyman.
The man who bas the most
brains of these two men is the
man to vote for.
The man whom you would
sooner trust your own business
affairs with is the one who should
be chosen to handle the public
business.
The man who will be recognized
as proper company for the best
men of the legislature is the nan
to nominate.
Tie man whose opinions will
be sought and valued is the man
to represent this district.
When L. N. Clausen has been in
official position he has always been
above suspicion.
When be has been in office he has
| always been faithful and conscien-
tious public servant.
Let the record of Mr.. Nelson
speak for itself everyone knows
pretty much what it has been.
The comparison could be much
more broadly and clearly drawn.
There are few differences between
the men such an these which should
be considered.
Is there any good thing that can
be said of Mr. Nelson that could not
be said of Mr.. Clausen?
Are there not scores of reasons
that can be urged in favor of Mr..
Clausen that could not be subscribed
to by Mr.. Nelson?
Voters do not be deceived or hood
winked by the plea of Mr.. Nelson on
the ground that he is an admins
tration man? Vote for man that
wears no ones collar but knows how
to be legislator by force of his own
reasoning power.
| Vote for the best man, for the
man who subscribes to the best
qualities of citizenship, for the one
you really and candidly believe to be
the man entitled to official recogni-
ton, for the one you believe can be
best entrusted with hundreds OF
matters where the honesty, en-
te9rity and Judgment of the legislat-
or is put to the test.
IF you do this then you will cast
your ballot at Saturday nights oau-
! cuses for the Cfausen delegates.

puts UP a Full Ticket.--Oscar and
Myhre are Renominated.- Eros
eth Named for Treasurer.

The republican ticket is made.
Delegates from all over the coun-
ty arrived in Washburn Sunday
night and became busy in setting
up pins and com binations for the
selection of their favorite candi-
dates for the different Offices.
At the hour of ten Monday morn
ing the delegates were unwilling
to be "called" to order and it was
about eleven o'clock before the
gavel was sounded by County
Chairman l., n. Clausen. Currie
G. Bell was elected chairman and
z. j. Savage, secretary of the
convention. mittees on per.
manent organization and creden-
tials were named. The com nit
tee on permanent organization
retained the temporary organiza-
ton and the committee on Gre
dentials reported the following
delegates entitled to seats in the
convention:

Severson,
Drummond: f. w. Fitz.
Gable: Martin Rogan.
There was considerable contest
upon resolution presented by
Mr.. Savage of Iron River as to
the order in which the different
officers should be named, but the
convention decided to take IN
the officers of register of deeds
and county clerk first, then the
sheriffship, district attorney,
treasury, clerk of court. etc.
Nels M. Oscar had a clear field
fer county clerk, the delegates
believing that one good term de-
serves onother, and he was re,
nominated by reclamation.
The same thing was done with
reference to Nels Myhre, and he
was placed on the ticket for
register of deeds in the same
manner.
Everyone was anxious to know
what had been accomplished re
garding the sheriffship nomina.
ton as a result of many attempt.
ed trades, but the result of the
first ballot showed that the dele.
gates had not changed any after
their election. H. j. Conlin got
thirteen votes, Ole Johnson
seven and Jared Welton four.
One delegate thought he would
be sharp and moved an adjourn.
ment before the nomination OF
Mr.. Conlin was announced but
this was voted down. and then
the question as to whether the
ballot was formal or informal
was raised, and a standing vote
settled the matter, Mr.. Conlir

ing declared the nominee.

INCITE THE MONGOLS
JapaneseP Prophets Enioin Wor-
ship of the God Airoi

BIJSK, Tomsk, Russia, June 1S-The
agitation among the Mongols inhabit-
ing the Altai region is increasing over
the appearance of the god Airol, who
they believe will deliver them from a
foreign yoke and create an independent
kingdom. The Mongols are gathering
in thousands in answer TO the sum
mons of men, said to be Japanese, who
are proclaiming themselves to be the
apostles Of the god Airol. These men
are inspiring awe among the ignorant
Nomads by means of an alleged miracle
carried out with the aid of electrical
and pyrotechnical devices.
These so-called apostles preach the
reincarnation of Airol and pretend to
carry from him messages saying that
he has not been happy since he left
them 200 years ago, coincident with
the date of the Russian occupation of
the country. They warn the Mongols
to abstain from wearing white or red
clothing, these being Russian national
colors, and to wear only blue and yell
low, the national colOrs of Japan; urge
them to worship the sun and moon;
they also warn the inhabitants to dis
card all agricultural implements and
to keep their arms hidden in the noun
tains and elsewhere.

PANAMA SILVER 5.
WILL BE RECOINED
Coin Established Corresponding With
the American Dollar

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 18.-The
commission charged with the prepara-
ton OF a currency system for Panama
today reached an agreement which es-
tablishes a coin equivalent in fineness
and weight to the dollar Of the United
States as the standard, and which
also makes the United States dollar
legal tender in Panama. Under the
agreement the Panama government
will recoin or convert the Colombian
silver into coins of the size of a silver
dollar The amount of this silver is
$1,500,000
AT the request of Secretary Taft it
was agreed to coin as much more sill
yer until a total of $4,000, 600 is reached.
In order to retain a parity with gold
there will be deposited in some repu-
table bank in New York city Is per
cent Of the amount coined and in ad-
dition there will be deposited all the
selgnorage which Panama will make in
the coinage to meet the American gov
ernment's requirements. The agree
ment provides for a joint arrangement
between the government of Panama
and the canal commission under which,
by selling drafts and by drawing on the
funds, the exchange can be kept down
to reasonable figure, not above 2 per
cent, and thus avoid large fluctuations
of rates.
