TrIumphs of Modern Surgery.

Triumphs OF Modern Surgery.
Wonderful things are done for
the human body by surgery.
Organsare taken out and scraped
and polished and put back, or
they may be removed entirely;
bones are spliced; pipes take the
place of diseased sections of veins;
antiseptic dressings are applied
to wounds, bruises, burns and
like injuries before inflammation
sets in, which causes them to
heal without maturatiou and in
one third the time required by
the old treatment. Chambe
iain's pain balm acts on this
same principle. 1t is an anti
septic and when applied to such
injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also allays the pain
md soreness. Keep a bottle of
Pain Balm in your home and it
will save you time and money,
not to mention the inconven-
fences and suffering which such
INJURIES entail. For sale by

liver, we havn't noticed any change
as yet. We notice that most OF
the men mentioned in the Home
seekers Guide made most of theil
wealth out of their ranches and
alfalfa. Those who are mentioned
we can't call farmers, of course they
farm some but also hold on 10 their
cattle. Why do they do that2 Be-
cause they want something to fall
back on. Of course Farmer Bisbee
made money farming, we don't
doubt that at all, but he can't make
living on quarter section, that
we deny; and another thing, starting
with only $500, that is the main
thing we STATED to argue in the first
place, not farmer who has 500 or
1000 acres under cultivation and
100 head of cattle, we know they
can make a living. We again thank
Mr.. Sullivan for the Homeseeker's
Guide, but we wish he would send
US that powerful magnifying glass
of his for couple of weeks to
scrutinize his article. We can't see
the point with our bare eyes.

La FoIlette's Defeat,

1t is safe to say that the country
will be surprised at the promptness,
not to say the suddenness. with which
the national committee decided the
Wisconsin contest.
1t is true, it seemed to outsiders to
be plain case, but political tribunals
are proverbially timid in the handling
of such matters, and a temPorizing pol
icy was what was generally expected
from the committee, Its vigorous
action and its wise decision, therefore,
will be all the more applauded
throughout the party.
The committee seems to have real
lied, as everyone does who has
watched the progress of events in Wis
consin, that the La Toilette movement
was one which called for the
most summary and drastic treatment
possible. The committee seems to have
regarded it, and rightly, as a sort OF
Catiline's conspiracy, SO bad in prin-
ciple and SO dangerous to the party
that it admitted of no parleying, but
was to be stamped out at once and
without mercy.
Governor La Toilette is essentially a
populist and socialist, strongly favored
with selfshness, am bitiOn and demaeo-
gy. His following is not the Repub-
lican party, though it calls itself by
that name, but clan composed of all
parties. Like ali personal followings,
it is radical. corrupt and fanatical, and
far mere vigorous and aggressive than
q mere political party.
1t is easy to see, therefore, that the
La Toilette movement threatens the
complete obliteration OF the Republic
an party in Wisconsin. Already La
Toilette is under the guidance Of Will
liam j. Bryan, any many OF his follow
ers are Bryan Democrats. Republican
principles, traditions and restraints
have been thrown to the winds, and by
the time this mongrel host has wholly
captured the state it may repudiate
the Republican party also and literally
asolish the Republican party ia Wis
consin.
The Republican party is now in the
same position wits references to La
Toilette that the Democratic party was
in With reference to Bryan is 1896,
and might learn a valuable lesson
from what the Democratic party then
failed to do. II Bryan had been forced
to bolt the convention ia lbs At year the
Democratic party might now have
been intact and triumphant. Ia like
manner If the Republican party will
now drive La Toilette outside of party
lines, where he wili be comparative
harmless, it will save itself a great
deal OF decentralization and vain regret
in the future.
The task. however. will pc harder

An Unprecedented Tribunals Verdict.

FN CtiPt 0IlOiSSu l Tputldl VSTQlCts
The unanimous action of the repub-
lican national committee in seating
Senators Spooner and Quarles, aud
their colleagues. will settle in the
minds Of a good many Republicans in
Wisconsin theCquestion Of what con-
stltutes the Republican party in the
state.
This unprejudiced tribunal has
placed the seal of approval upon the
Republican convention held at the
opera house in Madison, May 10, and
their decision will be Endorsed by the
Republican convention when it as
sembles next Tuesday. There is only
one Republican party in the state, and
it now remains to sec what La Fol
letteism will do. If unwise enough to
bolt the responsibility will rest with
the boilers.
The Republican national convention
can be criticized with impunity either
by the governor or his supporters.
This convention represents moro than
7,0O0.0 900 intelligent Republican voters.
The question for Wisconsin Repub-
icans to decide now is: Which is
greater. Lax olletteism or the Republic
an party? The decision rendered is
from the standpoint OF justice, and
every Republican who is blinded by
prejudice will indorse it.
The Supreme court may be called
upon later to give an opinion on loyal
points, but it matters not what this
opinion may be. The party court has
already decided and Republican senti-
ment is satisfied with the decision.
1t may be possible for La Toilette to
divide the vote in the state and be
may succeed in defeating the party;
out there will be no glory in the ei.
fort. and nothing but shame in the re-
suits. If wise he will retire gracefully
from the field and attempt by loyalty
in the future to redeem hnuself.
The Republicans will be with Re-
publicans Of the nation. They have
trained under the banner these many
years and they do not question the
Judgment and integrity of party lead
ers, and moved to certain victory both
in the state and nation. GAINESVILLE

They Have BoIted.

The La Toilette delegates at large
have bolted the national convention in
advance of the decision of the commit
tee on credentials. They have filed
statement which, in effect, alleges that
the national committee was prejudiced
and that they are convinced they could
mot secure fair hearing before the
committee on credentials. They there
fore adopt the only alternative left them
and appeal to the voters of Wisconsin
TO decide question of which the ma
tional convention had original and final
jurisdiction.

OF litigants to rail against the court

nothing to do with local controversies
except to see that delegates who are
seated Ia the national convention we're

bers of their party as such delegates.
But the La Toilette faction-or the four
delegates-at-large who represent that

Insulting these committees and appeal
Sng to the people of Wisconsin to sup

They will charge the national repnb-
