Who Is Emanuel LAUGH?

City authorities received a dis
patch yesterday from authorities at
Salt Lake City, Utah, informing
them of the death on Saturday Of
Emanuel LAUGH in that city. The
message stated that deceased had a
twin sister who is a minister's wife,
residing in Lancaster.
A canvas of the city revealed no
parsons wife who could furnish any
information concerning the case,
and evidently there is mistake OF
misunderstanding somewhere.

JUDGE BAENSCH'S VISIT.
Candidate for Gubernatorial HonOrs
Made Many Friends i'm Lancaster.

Judge Emil Baensch of Mani
towoc, Republican candidate for
governor, was in Lancaster Monday
evening and yesterday forenoon
interviewing representative Re
publicans in regard to the political
situation in this locality and in
cidentally stating his position on
the questions of vital interest to the
Republicans of Wisconsin in parti-
cular and the people IN general,
Scores of business, professional
men and farmers called to pay
respects to Judge Baensch and he
left a very favorable impression
with everyone who met him.
In conversation with a Herald
reporter Judge Baensch spoke of
his Itinerary as follows:
My trip through Grant County
has confirmed me in the opinion
that Wisconsin presents so much
scenic. beauty that it is hardly
necessary to go outside of it's boun-
DIARIES, to enjoy and admire natures
beauties. The trip from Woodman
to Fennimore on the narrow gauge
with it's horseshoe bend, is as pretty
if not as grand as the famous horse
shoe curve on the Pennsylvania
railroad.
While my trip has been most
pleasant and the receptions very
friendly, the activity of the game
wardens has made most unfavor-
able impression. In nearly every
town visited one of these ubiquitous
gentlemen has been listening or
watching. believe the system of
appointing such men as political
hustlers, in order to retain power,
is temptation to the one in power.
Many of these deputies are not
busying themselves with the en-
forcement of the game laws, but
are looking after the building of
political fences. They are obtaining
money under false pretenses.
1t is natural, that actuated by
political motives, they will not ex-
ecute the game laws, as impartially
as they otherwise would. Numer-
GUS instances are reported in differ
ent localities which form the basis
of this statement. Upon the same
principle, that the interest on state
deposits received by the state treas
urers, was recovered, the payment
of salaries and expenses to deputy
game wardens, would seem recover
able.
If I should be nominated and
elected, l will certainly recommend
that this appointing power be re-
pealed, that it be localized or other
wise hedged in. I believe no law
should be upon the statute books
which makes possible the building
up of political machine, at tn ex-
pense of the state, or any class of
it's citizens.

ton of the mass, small branches
being distributed among the mem
bers of the congregations. On this
