La Crosse, Wis, May 9.-The result OF
Saturdays county converstion in whlch the
Hearst faction captured the county, has
left the democrats of La Crosse county
In angry mood. 1t is said that the wall
men will carry the fight into the county
situation and an effort will be made to
down all men who supported Hearst ana
who desire to get on the county ticket.
The convention of Saturday was one OF
the most bitter ever held here and the re-
suit Is considered direct blow at DR..
w. A Anderson, chairman OF the Wall
committee in this state, and prominent
candidate for governor. DR.. Anderson
was defeated to head the La crosse dele
CATION to Milwaukee. John F. Doherty, a
prominent Hearst leader, was elected,
The Hearst men, however, contended
that the convention was not settling the
gubernatorial contest and that no one was
opposed to DR.. Anderson for governor.
They held that it was only a question of
sending Wall or Hearst delegates to the
state convention and even if DR.. Anderson
was a candidate for governor, he did not
figure In this fight.

BONDE RETURNS
Chippewa Falls Man Clears Up Mys-
tery of Several Months.

CHIPPEWA FALLS, WIS.--The mystery sur
rounding the disappearance of Edmund Bonde on
Nov 12, 1908, has been explained by his re-
turn. Bonde says he under the influence of
liquor when he left Chippewa Falls for st. Paul.
When he reached that city he heard some one
shout: This way for tickets to Seattle and
he thereupon purchased q ticket to Washington.
He remained in the west about five months when
the desire to make his whereabouts known
and see his wife Influenced him to return.
When Bonde disappeared stories began to take
root that he had absconded with 5000 of his en-
ployers money, that he had eloped with a for.
mer sweetheart, and finally that he had met
with foul play. He says there is truth
whatever in any of these reports.
Lightning struck the warehouse of William
Greasy at Lafayette, near here, and burned it.
A large quantity of grain and farm machinery
destroyed
