Maple Grove the Banner Gown. This
flag was presented to Edward Nolan
rs the representative of the own by the
late Joseph Rankin. the lie e.ding demo
crat of Wisconsin for many wears. This
flag is still preserved ana nrished by
the people of the town toy \ h it was
presented When on acc, II of his
advanced age Edward Nolat funtarily
retired from public office Gown and
county and from actual service to his
party, the work was taken up by his
son, James p. Nolan, who is now seek
ing the democratic nomination for
secretary of state. He Immediately
took upon himself the work of uphold
ing the interests of the democratic party
in his town and county as we'll as in the
state He also took an important part
in developing the business interests of
his town and being friend of education
and heartily IN favor of giving every
young person n chance in life, he did
much for the advancement of the public
schools. He succeeded his father as
clerk of the school board Chairman of
the town and justice of the peace He
served fourteen years as member of
the county board of supervisors and
was chairman Of that body for five
years. In the fall of 1900 he was elected
u member of the Wisconsin legislature
and was made chairman of the commit
tee on privileges and elections and was
also member of the committee on bills
ON their third reading. He was elected
clerk of the circuit court of Manitowoc
county i'll 1893, which Office be held
until 1891 He is well known and has
always been prominent figure in
county and state conventions for many
years His election to the office of clerl;
OF the circuit court made it necessary
for him to remove to the city of Mani
towoc and give up his residence in the
town of Maple Grove, which he did
|,
were 10th to part with him.
John f.. Nolan his brother, was elect
ed town treasurer of the town of Maple
Grove the same year that James p.
Nolan moved to Manitowoc. and has
held the position continuously since that
time. Mr.. Nolan had two brothers and
three sisters, all of whom were teachers
in the public schools of Manitowoc
county.
In view of the record of Mr.. j. p.
Nolan and his connections it is not too
much to say that the Wisconsin democ-
racy would honor itself 10y nominating
him for the high office to which he
aspires. His nomination would Ger
talnly contribute much to the strength
OF the democratic ticket and decidedly
enhance the chances for democratic
success next November.

tee on the poor recommended that the

missioner Joyce had brought the matter
before the council. He said that, unless
Bonk was given II free license by the
city, he would be forced TO close his
saloon located at the corner of Fif
teenth and Franklin streets. and be
come charge of the city for his sup
port Some members of the council
favored the recommendation of grant
ing free license to Bonk for year
thinking it the easiest way ont of the
difficulty. But the poor committee ex
pressed the opinion that such action
would be unwise inasmuch rs it would
be establishing II bid precedent, and
the board will adopt their recommen
dation.

j. p. Nolan of ManitowOc, Wis
candidate for the democratic nomina
tiOn for secretary of state, has Il family
record that he may well be proud OF
and that should be considered by the
democracy of Wisconsin in selecting
their candidate for the important office
of secretary of state. His father
| Edward Nolan. was born in Ireland
October II, 1911, and remained in his
native country until the year 1916, when
he, together with his wife and two
children elnigrated TO the United States
and settled in the town of Celarburg,
Ozaukee county, Wis, where }. p.
Nolan, the subject of this article, was
born Dec 1,th, 1850.
Edward Nolan had received thor
ough education in his native country
and was looked upon as one Of the best
informed men in the whole neigh
borhood wherever he resided He began
life in the land of his adoption as II
teacher in the public schools, which
calling he followed for several years.
While teaching, he made his home on
a farm and spent his spare time in cul-
tivating the same. For a number of
years he served as n member of the
town board of the town of Cedarburg
at which place he resided until the year
1853, when he, together with his wife
and family Of six children, removed to
the town of Maple Grove, Manitowoc
County Wis. where he settled on u
farm upon which he resided until the
time of his death, Feb. 25 1877. In the
spring of the year 1853 one year after
he had settled in Maple Grove, he was
elected chairman of the board of super
visors of that town, which position he
held continuously for fifteen years,
during which time he represented his
town rs member of the county board of
supervisors. He held the office of
justice of the peace for eighteen years
and that of clerk of the district school
board for the same length of time
During his whole life time in the land
of his adoption he was II staunch demo
crat, always in the front rank and ever
ready with his tongue and pen to advo
cate democratic principles. So thor
ough was his influence as democratic
leader that the town of Maple Grove
was known rs the banner democi ,'ic
town of Manitowoc county. And the
record shows that in many political
campaigns during his administration Of
the affairs of his town there was not one
vote east in his town for any othe-
party than the democratic party. As u
token of regard for his valuable services
to his party, the democratic ladies of
the city Of Manitowoc with their own
hands made an elaborate silk American
flag, on which were inscribed the words:
