policy, and to further improvement
of our city in every manner that will
enhance its future growth and prosper
ity.
The democratic party believes that
the public welfare can best be safe
guarded by the municipal ownership
of public utilities, and we are proud of
the fact that Wausau's excellent water
works system was installed under "a
democratic administration.
: We believe the bid for street lighting
which has been submitted to the com
mon council by the Wausau Electric
company to be too nigh, and we disap
prove of the common council making a
contract upon the basis of the bid sub
mitted. We propose a thorough inves-
tigation of the subject of city lighting
by the incoming city administration
and if found advantageous to the city,
or necessary to protect the interests of
the taxpayers, we pledge the nom
inees of the party in city and ward to
provide for such street lighting by the
city.
We direct the attention of the voters
of our city to the important subjects of
public interest in charge of the ineom-
ing administration the refunding of the
major portion of our bonded indepted-
ness and the safeguarding of our water
works system. With these and other
important subjects for consideration,
we submit to the voters the necessity of
elccting to the several departments of
city government, men of experience,
enjoying the greatest confidence.
We submit to the favorable consider
alton of the voters of the city, the nom
inees of this convention.
There can be no question but that the
election of Mr.. Zimmerman on this
platform viii be for the best interest of
every citizen and tax payer of this city.
The denomination of John Sell for
Comptroller and Herman G. Lemke for
City Treasurer by the democrats, was a
worthy recognition of men who have
performed their duty well. 1t is not
wise to cast aside men whom all know
to be faithful and honest workers for
the city's interests, so the election of
these gentlemen is certain. The voter
should look over the ticket for ward
offices at the head of these columns,
placed in nomination by the democrats
All excellent men of our city and de-
serve to be elected

The time mas come when the citizens
of Wausau must again choose man to
head the city government, and the two
leading parties have now made their
selections. The democrats in conven-
ton assembled last Saturday evening
placed in nomination f. G. thinner
man.
Mr.. Zimmerman was born in Ger
many in 1857, and came with his
parents to this country in 1868. They
first lived in Waterloo, Wis, but with
in a year moved to Eau Claire, Wis.
There he attended tie public schools I'M
,, til he was fourteen years of age, when
he went to work the office of fire in
surance agency and where he remained
for six wears. He came to Wausau
sau in 1878 and opened an insurance
office which he conducted until 1881,
when he went into partnership with H.
l.. Wheeler, In 1892 ne sold out his in
terests in the insurance business, and
became assistant cashier OF the Mara
thon County Bank, and in 1898 was
promoted to cashier of that bank.
| MIR Zimmerman has been a member
of the City Council and represented the
the city ON the County Board, being
chairman of that body in 1887 He was
mayor of the city of Wausau in 1888
and 1889 He has served on the school
, board for over five years, is now and
has been for some years treasurer, of
the Marathon County Agricultural soci-
ETY..
Mr.. Zimmerman'S career as a citizen
and as business man has been credit
to him and to this city He not only
knows all of the details of the work OF
city government but his reputation as
an office holder in the past, warrants
his ability to do for the city all that
should be done without a waste of pub
lie money. He never has been man
who would 60 into a thing before he
knew all about it, and any expenditure
of public money will have to be for the
best interests of the tax payers to Sc
cure his approval.
In his speech, accepting the nomina-
ton on the democratic ticket, Mr..
Zimmerman stated that he had carefully
read the democratic platform and that
he heartily endorsed it. The platform
speaks foT itself, and is as follows:
PLATFuRas.
We the representatives of the demo
cratic party Vt the city of Wausau in
convention assembled, congratulate the
present democratic mayor and city
Officials on the magnificent work they
have done for the city, and we are
pleased To see that the republican city
eonvention has also placed the seal OF
approval upon il. The many reforms
accomplished aud the great progress
made ; the way of public improve
meuts. richly merits the approval of the
general public.
We pledge the candidates of the demo
cratic party TO continuation OF that

Tn. Need and Supply of the CHURCH.

What Christ said to those men can bd
said truthfully of any people in this day.
If we would do successful work for oua
Master, in a special line Of work; makind
the most of ourselves, let US remember that
when we have done all we can there still
exists needs that only the spirit of God
can supply. It is true that every Christian
has the spirit Of God. These men to whom
Christ was speaking had known what II
was to possess power. You remember they
were commissioned and sent out two bN
two into every city, and they came bach
rejoicing that even the demons had been
subject to them, and rejoicing in possession
of power. What we need to-day is bold
ness. Not a ~braggadocio spirit, but such !
confidence in the Master, such a devotion
that they are not willing that any should
question whether they belong to Him Oh
not. My dear brothers in Christ, if wd
want this Central Baptist Church to be d
power in this city, we need to be filled
with the spirit Of God. Shall we seek until
we obtain it? Shall we hear the word: "Id
We then, being evil, know how, to give gift1
unto your children, how much more, them
will He give, the Holy Spirit to them that
ask it," 1t is for this that / long. It is
for a people filled with the spirit of God
l will risk everything else in the way of
difficulties if once we have Him. Shall we
GEEK Him until We obtain H~im?--From'

Precious Stones Scarce.

The United States can supply all the
wants Of its people for coal, iron, cop
per, petroleum, and all the useful min
erals; gold and silver are also found
in generous quantities; but Of precious
stones the diamond, the ruby, the EN-
erald, the topaz, etc., it has practically
none, except what it has bought
abroad. In 1902 we paid $25, 0OO,0 600
to foreign countries for precious stones
that we imported, while during that
year precious stones Of the value OF
only S33S,O00 were found within our
borders. These were principally
sapphires from Montana, turquoises
from New Mexico, Arizona, NeVada
and California, and tourmalines and
chrysoprases from California.-Na.

God Dominates All.

As the mountain of Fujiyama dominates
the landscape in Japan, as the temple hills
Of Jerusalem commanded the scene far all
around, so we believe God is to be exalted
in this vast community, so as to dominate
it all. The sense OF God is not fading; it
is increasing. To Him we lift up our eyer
as unto the mountains. The church is to
nourish this consciousness of God, and to
express it in lives of spiritual power: Oh,
then, how one comes to love the church
when once her real mission is seen. we
are set to invite tina world to come to its
only true home. Wandering hearts, I'm.
easy consciences, troubled souls, come to
the home of homes, III Gods great love
and blessed service, Let the gates open
wide. that the multitudes may press into
the home of their hearts. Oh, church OF
God, let your faith be large and bright,
that the world may come home: Erect no

more and more become a home to the chill

Consumption of earth as food is safu

clay is then formed into small cakes

which resemble the animals turned out

George Bretherton, a veterinary surgeon:
found a woman's hatpin seven and a half
inches in length. The dog swallowed the

way, the veterinary said, from puncturing

dog had acted strangely. whining piteous.
w.. Miss Collier thought it was pinina

Bretherton. He placed the animal under

log stood the operation well. and as soon
as it was restored to consciousness Miss
Collier took her pet away with her.
