Congressman COOper's Meeting.

The futility of attempting to hold a
political meeting in the day time in a
busy time of year was pretty we'll illus
trated in the results of the Cooper meet
ing here Tuesday afternoon. Not only
was the audience small but it was made
up of large percentage Of women and
school children. When Mr.. Cooper be-
gan his address there was scarcely more
than 50 voters in the hall, which was a
marked contrast with the audiences at
other meetings the congressman has ad
dressed in Edgerton. He arrived on the
LAO o'clock train, being met at the depot
with the band and escorted to the hall.
Mayor Laid introduced the speaker, who
Immediately began discussion of the
tariff problems. He next took up the
trusts and proved their growth and de-
velopment was due to natural causes
rather than the tariff. They were the
legitimate results of competition in bust
ness, and relief from oppression lay in
legislative control. He declared that
every trust which the people complained
of today derived its power OF oppression
from discriminating advantages given it
by the railways. Here is where Mr..
Cooper is strong this year, and being a
recent convert to the anti-corporation
reform movement he is naturally an ar
dent advocate. He read numerous ex-
tracts from the reports of the inter state
commerce commission which pleaded
with congress for more power which that
body has so far failed to grant, though
he didn't explain why.
The speaker also discussed the charges
made against his record by his opponent,
Calvin Stewart, here last week, telling
his audience that the Philippine railway
bill was introduced at the request Of
Gov. Taft, and the Cooper amendment
to the interstate commerce bill was
drawn by the Shippers Association and
had the sanction of the interstate COM
mission.
Mr.. Cooper made a somewhat elabor-
ate, though not so lucid an explanation,
why he had violated his convention
pledge OF neutrality in the state fac
tional matters. He said, in substance
he had kept entirely free from entangle-
ments during four years but he didn't
think the public ought to expect man
to wait for the loaded wagon forever.
Now that he was safely landed in the ad-
ministration auto. he felt in duty bound
to whoop it up for Bob" And DR..
Roberts, the state horse doctor, was
present to see that he carried out the
agreement.

Big Foot Ball Game.

The big varsity foot ball game OF the
season is scheduled to take place at
Madison Saturday, for which prepare
tions are being made for large crowd
Wisconsin will meet Michigan in SUI
preme test of college foot ball with about
even chances, though many predict that
the blue will prevail.
1t is expected that forty members of
the University of Michigan foot ball
squad will arrive in GAINESVILLE on Friday
from Ann Arbor for days rest and
practice before the meeting of the Wis
consin university team. Arrangements
have been made for their accommodation
and practice will be held on the athletic
field south of the city. The team will
leave for Madison Saturday morning just
before II, arriving there at o'clock.
The sale of tickets indicates an atten-
dance of from 5000 to 5000 and special
trains will be run from all directions to
the capital city.
In last Saturdays game Wisconsin
overwhelmed Drake university in the
largest score ever made by the uni
versity, "a to O. The same day Michigan
made an even better record in a game
with West Virginia, scoring 40 points 70
0. So the coming battle will be one Of
unusual interest.

No More COlOred Bologna.

William Lillich changed his plea of
not guilty to one of guilty to the charge
of selling sausage containing artificial
coloring matter in the municipal court
at Madison. Judge Donovan imposed a
fine of S75 and costs with the alternative
OF so days in Jail. Upon recommended
ton of Dairy and Food Commissioner
Emery the fine was remitted. The COSTS
amounting to Sl1.10, were paid by the
defendant.
The practice Of using coloring matter
is followed by butchers universally. 1t
is not intended as an adulterant or to
hide any inferiority in the meats, but
simply for the apetizing color it gives
the sausage. The manufacturers guar
antee the coloring to contain nothing
harmful, and is simply technical viola
ton OF the pure food law.-Sun Prairie

HOPKINS HARGRAyES.

At the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Hargraves, occurred
the wedding of their daughter. Clara, to
Mr.. Roy E. Hopkins, on Wednesday
evening, October 26, at six o'clock. Just
preceding the ceremony Miss Norma
Hargraves, the brides sister sang 30,
Promise Me-" The couple were unat-
tended and entered the sitting room to
march played by Winifred Coon. They
passed through an aisle of ribbons held
by Dewey Smith and Maxine Burdick,
to canopy OF autumn leaves where the
ceremony was held. Rev. L. Ell. Keller
of Milwaukee and Rev. L. A. Parr read
the service. After the ceremony we'd
ding supper was served under the direc-
ton of Mrs. Louise Bowerman of James
Vile.
The groom was born and brought up
in Edgerton and is an exemplary young
man in every respect. The bride secur-
ed her education at the Whitewater
Normal where she ranked high in her
classes, and has since been engaged in
teaching, lately in the high school of this
city. Both enjoy the esteem of a large
circle OF friends, who join with The Re-
porter in congratulations and best wishes.
The bride and groom left for short
weddino trim tn ST. Louis after which
they go to Platteville which they will
make their future home. Among those
who attended the wedding from out of
town were Miss Daisy Buckeridge Of Be
lott; Miss Abbott and Miss Bess Edsall
of Fort Atkinson; Miss Winnifred Edsall
Of Richland Center; Miss May Kelley of
Juneau; Mrs. Mathison of Canal Dover,
Ohio, and Claude Hopkins OF Madison.

Marshal Hogan Is Dead.

After living death for nearly year
with malignant cancer, which made it's
temperance on his lip, John W. Hogan,
Janesville's great city marshal, died at
$50 Tuesday evening. He was born in
Stockbridge, Mass. May q, 1852. Soon
after his birth his parents settled on a
farm in La Prairie. He was at different
times during early life engaged in agri-
cultural pursuits and the grocery bust
ness until 1878, when he went to Wau
kesha to serve as an officer in the Indus
trial school for one year.
He was appointed city marshal in 1880
and except for term as sheriff has held
the Office since that time. During his
tenure he has sent more noted criminals
to the penitentiary than any other single
officer in southern Wisconsin. He made
a science of his work.

Too Much Ballot.

The Australian ballot is getting to be
too much Of good thing and this year
it exceeds all previous records. When
the voter steps into the booth Tuesday,
November s, the ballot clerk will hand
him a poster "a inches wide and IS
inches long. The blanket sheet is nine
columns wide and has 81 names in col
umn. From this aggregation, the voter,
intelligent and otherwise, is expected to
select the names of the men whom he
wishes to assume the reins OF govern
ment. Just how he is going to do this
in quiet way. all by himself, is prob
lem. He can't get the ballot into the
stall and spread it out, because the sheet
is too wide, and there is no provision
made for voters getting on to the roof of
the booth to mark their ballots, so there
is evidently trouble ahead. II the vot-
ers have to spread the blanket sheets on
the neighporing bill boards or utilize the
cement sidewalks whenever possible
where does the secrecy of the ballot
come in?

JensOn a Sure Winner.

Whatever happens in the general mix
up in state politics, lucky combination
of circumstances is likely to bring about
the election of Mr.. Andrew Jensen, the
democratic candidate for state treasurer,
in any event. The inability of the ad-
ministration to get rid OF their .candi-
date, Kempf, before the official ballot is
made up and the probability that he will
remain there, gives the La Toilette re-
publican ticket candidate for treasurer
whom the governor himself advises his
friends not to vote for. Whether sap in
dependent nomination of their own fac
ton will be put on the ticket or moi, his
name being outside the regular rephbli-
can heading, he cannot expect to receive
anywhere near the strength of the party
vote. Under these conditions, aside
from the popularity of Mr.. Jenson
throughout the state, there is evcry rea-
son to belieye~he will be elected by a
handsome plurality, even if his con-
freres on the ticket fail. &
