JEFFR1s TO OPPOSE COOPER.
Prominent GAINESVILLE Lawyer Consents to
Make the Run for Congress.

Make the Run for Congress-
Malcolm G. Jeffris has announced his
candidacy for the republican congress
sionai nomination in the first district.
This time Mr.. .Ieffris could not we'll re-
fuse, as he has before, to make the run,
as he has been overwhelmed with letters
from every part of the district urging
him to get into the field. Mr.. Jeffris, in
his announcement, says:
81 believe that the time has come for
a change in representation in the first
congressional district. 1t seems to me
early to make the announcement, but
many of my friends think it should be
be candidate. | am in constant re-
ceipt of letters from all over the district
urging me to become candidate and
Offering support. This sounds like the
statement of politician, but in my case
it is literally true and is we'll known to
great many people. 1t is explained, IN
large part, by reason of the fact that
twelve years ago was candidate when
Mr.. Cooper was nominated and elected
for the first time. | have been urged to
become a candidate again at nearly
every election, but have so far declined.
There is no disguiaing the fact that Mr..
Cooper has not proven himself to be
satisfactory representative. He has now
been 10 congress almost twelve years.
He certainly has had many opportuni-
ties to do something to justify his con-
tinuance, but he either has not been
equal to, or has neglected all of the op-
pOrtunities.
"Mr. Cooper has recently been to the
Philippines, and now he thinks he wants
the tariff taken off of sugar and tobacco.
Just now he is working to that end. [
think this is ill-considered and against
the interest of this districtin particular,
and against the interests Of the whole
country in general. Wisconsin has long
been a great tobacco producing state.
1t is crop which requires great deal
of labor and care, and while it has been
a profitable crop to the raisers, it is one
which cannot stand much adversely We
have recently been developing the beet
sugar industry in Wisconsin. [ believe
that it is going to be profitable crop,
but like tobacco it is one which requires
great deal of labor and care. Any
measure which would cripple these in
dustries is to be deplored. For my part,
| am interested ia the welfare of Wis
consin first, and our sister states second,
and the Philippine Islands somewhat
further down the list. believe in pro-
lection of American Industries, and par
ticularly of American farmers. [ think
there are many points in which the tariff
could be advantageously revised. Where
goods are made by trust that is getting
an undue profit it sh ould have no pro-
lection from the government Or the peo-
pie. Many of our Industries can no
longer be called infant industries. They
are giants, which need to be restrained.
On the other hand, we have industries
to which should be applied the protec-
tive princi Pile, that is, tariff sufficient
to equalize the difference in wages and
the cost and method of living"

THAT Gov. La Toilette over reached
together in special session is now evil
dent. The legislature has slipped from
his grasp and the failure of that body to
pass the pet measures shows his power
as boss is broken. He can now go to
Washington but as Inundated and
discredited leader Of faction and repu-
tation abroad clouded. The halo has
vanished.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1905-12-22

THERE is every reason to believe that
the La Toilette hypnotic spell is over.
The iron rule of the boss is broken, and
let US hope more decent politics will pre-
vail in Wisconsin.

Delegation Of Lincoln Telephone Linemen
Goes Home Satisfied.

Increase Of nay, but whether they got Il
or not Mr.. Lane did not say. though he
did say at the conclusion OF the confer
ence that the men were going back to
Lincoln perfectly satisfied and that there
is no danger Of a strike.
Manager Thompson Of Lincoln headed
the delegation OF workmen and accom-
panied them 10 the ONCE OF Mr. Lane. lie
said there was only a little question OF
wages to be settled and It would be done
without any trouble.
The Nebraska Telephone company is do

coin just at this time and will have It's
hands full to get the work finished before
just at this time would be a serious propo-
sltion. Last year the linemen went on a
strike after first passing a resolution eX-
pressing their regard for Manager Thomp-
son. but that strike. like the present one.
was settled without hard feeling and with
little trouble.

col Manager Thompson would discuss the
strike which was settled today except to
say that the workmen merely asked for
more pay and that they returned to Lin
coin satisfied.

YORK, Neb., Aug. 6.-(Special) )-Colonei
B. Crabb of McCool Junction received last
week a marked copy Of the Evening Jour
nal a daily newspaper published at Wash
ington, Ia, dated July 20, 1905, and the
article to which Mr.. Crabbs attention was
directed was the following:
Forty-four years ago today the second
company from this county left for the
great civil war. This company was known
as the Kirkwood Guards, afterwards Com
pany H. Seventh Iowa infantry, which
served for four long years on the, tented
field. The officers were: B. Crabb, cap
tain; w. 2. Crawford, first lieutenant;
Granville @. Bennett, second lieutenant. All
are living. but the colonel is very feeble.
Colonel Crabb is one Of the early pio-
neers of Lincoln, Neb., who materially
assisted in the growth and promotion Of
Lincoln's interests, and from there he
moved to York, where he was engaged In
the hotel business for many years, and
is now resident of McCool proprietor

LIMIT OF COURT INJUNCTION
Kansas Judge Declines to Interfere
with The Bray of
Jacknss.

mo power on earth can prevent a Jack
ass from braying. This court Is puweress
to AFFORD relief in this case and the in
junction is dissolved" said Judge Dana in
dismissing a suit brought by the postmis-
tress Of Richland. Kan, against the own
ers OF number OF jackasses to prevent
their braying. Tibbetts & Hotz own a
livery stable in Richland, and Il is the
neNt-door neighbor to the postofice. and
she has been sorely annoyed during the
day and night by the rancorous braying Of
the discontented Jacks in the livery barn
Whenever she sought to while away the
tedious hours by singing softly to herself
the jacks would break in and agltate the
atmosphere with their dlstracting noise.
At night, when she raised her windows to
get breath Of fresh air her ears would
be henumbed by the hce-haw Of the Jacks
She appealed to the owners Of the stable
to suppress the animals. but they politely
Informed her that to bray was the chief
delight and function OF jackass, and they
could not prevent IL. Furthermore, the
nature OF their business precluded sending
tho offending animals away for the night
Finally she appealed to the court and Sc
cured from n Judge in Shawnee county a
temporary injunction against Messrs Tlb-
belts & Hotz. Then she gave final warning
to them that the noise must cease. They
Immediately took the case before Judge
Dana, and the case was argued It was
one of the most unique hearings in the his
tory OF Kansas even. which is the author
and scene Of many unique things.
In their reply to the Injunction Messrs
Tibbetts & Hotz set up that the courts and,
In fact, all human machinery, stood abso-
lutely powerless to prevent the braying Of
a jackass They cited instances where
various expedents had been tried, such as
dynamite. muzzling, solitary confinement
etc, but all efforts had proved futile It
was ably argued before the court that a
Missouri and Kansas jack, or mule. was a
unique feature in the eyes Of the world. and
entitled to consideration. 1t was shown
that pages Of comic weeklies are devoted
to this peculiar animal and his prediction
for braying and kicking. These had been
peculiarities of the jackass from the be-
ginning of the world and would be so to
the end thereof
While they regretted that any Of their
property should prove annoying to the
postmistress of Richland, for which woman
they had profound esteem, they could not
prevent their Jacks hee-hawing, nor could
they cripple their own business by dispos-
Ing of the animals. "and your petitioners
will ever pray, etc"
Judge Dana pondered at some length
over the case and finally announced that
he would dissolve the injunction. 1T is
| apparent 20 any student Of animal nature, g"
ne said, that human agencies are helpless
TO prevent the braying of a jackass 1t is
his nature, and the court can AFFORD no re-
lief. Let the order dismssing this case be
entered.'-St. LOUIS Globe Democrat.
