A woman in this city sent to
Chicago last week for a pair OF
shoes, paying $3.50 for them.
They are of an inferior quality
and she could have purchased
better ones right here for a dol
lar less. The shoes did not fit,
the woman lost her temper, the
home merchant lost a sale and
the money is helping to enrich
some eastern capitalist. Again
we say, don't send away for any
thing.

The charges against Colonel
Lounsberry made before the
government, we understand, will
be dismissed in a few days. The
charges were the result OF spite

had an opportunity to be dis

that he has so few OF the world $

has not been so.

INDUSTRY AND IDLENEsS.

Among the articles which w. j..
Bryan has contributed to the New
York Journal is one entitled "Tolstoy,
the Apostle OF Love" The following
extract from this letter shows what the
great Russian thinks In regard TO the
duty OF all to labor with their hands:
"Tolstoy, In one Of the strongest
essays that he has written-an essay
entitled Industry and ldleness '--elab-
CRATES and defe ndB the doctrine adj

labor with his hands, at least to the
extent OF producing his own food. i
referred to this and asked him for ~
brief statement OF his reasons. He
said that 1t WAS necessary Tor one TO
engage In manual labor In order to
keep himself In sympathy with those
who toll, and described the process by
which people first relieve themselves
OF the necessity Of physical exertion
and then come TO look with u sort OF
contempt upon those who find 1t neces-
sary TO work with their hands. He
believes that lack Of sympathy lios nj
the root of most of the injustice which
men suffer Mt the hands OF their fell
lows. He holds that II Is not sufficient
that one can remember " time when he
earned his bread In the sweat OF his
brow, but that he must continue TO
know what physical fatigue means and
what drudgery Is, In order that he may
rightly estimate his brother and deal
with him as a brother. In addition to
this he says that, when one begins to
live upon the labor OF Others, he ID
never quite sure that he IL earning his
living. Let me quote his language:
II you use more than you produce

A man must work as much as ho can

NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH.

The practice Of ndiscriminately and
nnjustly assaillng the character OF
men In public lifo Is ono of tho great
est evils of tho present time. Both
public and private wrongdoors ought
to be exposed and punished. But the
publishing abroad of charges which
are without foundation in fact, but
which pass for the truth, works " great
harm in degrading public sentiment,
To keep from evil speaking, lying and
slandering Is II duty which tho Amori-
can citizen owes to his neighbor and
TO the state. Upon this point the Chi
cngo Chronicle says;

THE WALL, BOOM,

Manitowoc Pilot, DEM: 1t was
meant TO provide iustifiable pretext
for leaving Hearst and also to prevent
any further accretion to his following.
Otherwise Mr.. Wall has scarcely any
greater recommendation for such an
Office as that of president of the United
States than has Mr.. Hearst. 1t is true
he is "favorite son " of Wisconsin,
and as such should, perhaps, command
the support of the state as against any
other candidate of no greater national
Importance from some other state.
But If the "favorite son " argument
is to play part in the coming cam
paiEn, Wisconsin has other favorite
sons who are really national figures.
In how many parts of the United States
does the name Wall bring any partic-
ular light? How many outside of the
state have ever heard the name? On
the other hand, very few localities are
so benighted as not to have heard,
and heard frequently, the name of ex-
Senator Villas, for instance. We
really believe that the "favorite son"
slogan has no place whatever in the
coming national campaign. The dem
ocrats of the country are too badly in
need of concerted and harmonious
action to waste their effort in many
small booms.

McClure's Universal Library

McClure-Phillips have just COM
pleted arrangements for bringing out
what will probably be the most COM
plete library Of the worlds literature
ever published. The plans include
over u thousand volumes and the titles
will cover not only the English and
American classics but all the vital
literature of the world both ancient
and modern. The idea of this immense
enterprise has been maturing for over
three years, but the project has not
until recently taken definite shape, for
lack of suitable editor. The resig-
nation of George Edward Woodbury.
from his position as Professor OF
Comparative Literature of Columbia
University has left him free to take
editorial direction of this important
venture.

Col. Villas by some Democrat news

general and secretary of the interior
his record is without blemish. In the

first in the struggle and it was largely
through his splendid efforts that the
victory was won.
