Bats generally remain torpid through
out the winter months; while the Afri-

dry season comfortably sealed up
within a nest formed by the caked

these cases the fast must accordingly
be prolonged and of a sever type.

Pufrery OF the Editor.

The liable editor" is perhaps
the only quack doctor extant
who greedily swallows his own
medicine and foolishly imagines
it does him good. Puffery is the
cable editors invariable per-
scription. no matter whether the
patient be a moss-grown town, a
broken down political rogue-tLe
victim of early indiscretions-or
a cheap John Notwithstanding
the first paroxisms of financial
dissolution. Although he knows
how bis medicine is made
knows that it is a nauseous COM
pound of rank hypocrisy and
brasen mendacity-he actually
believes that, if taken in liberal
doses, it is potent to cure com
mercial paralysis or put new
life intoa political corpse. When
the first experiment fails toprove
satisfactory, instead of changing
the treatment. he doubles the
dose.
Pick up any newspaper, big or
little, and note what the liable
editor thinks of himself; how he
twists and turns to find some
pretext for parading his own
transcendent greatness. See
how he greedily seizes upon
every little chunk of ''taffy" and
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1905-11-30

rolls it as sweet morsel under
his tongue. How he places in
his cap every foolish feather
which the idle wind Of puffery
watts within his clutch and then
struts around, a sight to provoke
the contempt of men and the pity
of the gods.
What would you think of that
lawyer, doctor or merchant,
who went about assiduously pro
claiming with sound Of trumpet
what his fellows said about him
Would we not vote him a fool?
At best a conceited prig, lack
ing in taste and good manners?
Co mmendation is sweet to all,
but it is just as permissible for
belle to boast her conquest in
ball room; the lawyer to inform
the Judge and jury what his fell
low disciples of Blackstone think
Of him; the scholar to parade
his erudition or the merchant
his integrity; as for an editor to
reproduce IN his own paper full
some compliments paid him for
no other purpose under heaven
then to GIT a puff in return.

THE GOVERNoRSHIP.
Lieut.. Gov. Davidson.

To the Editor. The LEI tiers from
Assemblyman Curtiss If Kenosha
and "A Votes" 81 Marshti.1d. which
appeared IN she Free Press this
morning, ms pire me to address your
readers in behalf of Lieut.. Gov
James Q. Davidson. A II II IN de
mar, honest TO the core, with d II :
cord in public service that no one
can question. a man OF ability. such
lis James O. Davidson; and when
Gov. La Toilette goes to thr Uaited
States senate next month, he sue
ceeds him as governor of The state
|of Wisconsin,. Now j. the light OF
common decency, should he not be
elected at least one term to succeed
himself?
Tt may be true that other candl-
dates have good. clean records. but
I ask the citizens Of the state of
Wisconsin TO consider Lieut.. Gov.
Davidson's position. After be
serves them for an unexpired term,
are they going to say to him that he
is Incompetent to fill the executive
chair, when they are unable to quts-
ton his ability or tine principles for
which he stands and has always
stood?
Iwant to say to the cit'znns OF
Wisconsin, that. if they will nominate
and elect James 0. Davidson as the
next governor, that he will serve
them with an eye single to their
every interest. One impo, tant sub
iect that will receive attention at
his bands is the subject of insurance
both life and fire. In view of the
recent revelations in this business,
is it not a vital subject to be consid-
cred? If elected governor, James O..
Davidson will point out way TO the
nex5 legislature to extract from the
| life insurance companies transacting
| business in this state and place IN
the pockets of Wisconsin policy
holders the ten or twelve millions
of surplus which those companies
are withholding from them. He
also will recommend and urge legis-
lation to remedy the other evils ex-
isting in that business.
| The average premium rate on fire
INSURANCE in this state, is from 10 10
60 per cent higher than in many OF
the other states. By enacting laws
better regulating several features in
the business OF fire insurance, which
subject Lieut. Gov. Davidson has
been looking into also, believe there
can be saved to the people in this
state several hundred thousand dol
lars in premiums annually. In
making this statement, however, |
do not mean to infer that the COM
panies are altogether to blame for
this condition.
| Iappeal to the citizens of this state
and my friends in particular, to care
fully consider this matter, and will
ask those that agree with my senti-
Gov. James O. Davidson, Madison
Wis, giving him their views on the
situation. I stand for a square deal.

Commissioner of Insurance.
