Another pretty wedding took place at
East Koshkouong church Thursday,
March 23rd, when Miss Charlotte John
son, daughter of P. n. johnson, became
the wife of Arthur Ellickson, son of Lars
Ellickson. The bride was dressed in
white grenadine over white taffeta and
carried lilies of the valley. There we're
four bridesmaids and four g-oomsmen.
The bridesmaids we're dressed in white
and carried pink roses. Miss Kathrine
johnson, sister of the bride, acted as
maid of honor and was attired in cream
wolfe. Alfred Ellickson acted as best
man. After the ceremony that made the
happy couple man and wife, the invited
guests numbering 200 proceeded to the
brides home where bountiful supper
was served. The tables we're decorated
with smilax, marguerites and large bou
quets of carnations. The happy couple
were the recipients of many beautiful
gifts and many good wishes for pros
porous and happy life. This young
couple have been very prominent on our
social affairs here and will be missed
very much. The groom has purchased
farm near Arlington, Wis, where they
will make their future home. They have
our best wishes for success.

THE SPRING ELECTION.
Light Vote and but Little Interest NJ
ifeStod.

Light Vote and but Little Interest Man
ifested.
The municipal election held in this
city Tuesday attracted as little interest
among the voters as any held here in
some years. There was practically but
one ticket in the field, that named at the
primaries, and less than 25O voters regis
tered their preference at the polls. 1t
was long, dull day at the polling place
and the judges and clerks of election
had plenty of time to read the news
papers between the coming of the voters.
The only surprise in the results came in
the election of DR.. B. L. Cleary as alder
man of the first ward, whose name did
not appear on the ticket, over James o.
Arthur. The friends of DR.. Cleary turn
ed the tables on the action of the prim-
airy which nominated Arthur after DR..
Cleary had been named by petition and
placed on the ballot So honors are even
now. Arthur's success at the primary
was defeat at the election. The voting

What Is The Difference?

The Hon. William Smithers arose in
his wrath and threw his visitor over
the transom. Quivering with rage he
resumed his seat, muttering to him
self and nervously handling the pa
pers of state that lay before him.
What is the matter, Mr.. Smithers?"
queried the representative of the p,
d. & @. railroad who happened to be
standing in the hall when the elected
visitor lit.
Matter enough" snarled the Hon.
William Smithers. THAT villain in
suited me previously, and I gave way
to my anger long enough to forcibly
eject him from my ROOM"

rant trust, and hearing that I am pre-
pairing to introduce a bill aimed at
it he had the effrontery to call and
offer me a meal ticket good at any of
the trusts restaurants during the
present session of the legislature"
"Horrible!" exclaimed the repre-
sentative of the p, D. & @. railroad.
Such brazen effort to bride an
honest public official should meet
with the most severe punishment.
This wave of corruption must be
swept back if our beloved republic is
TO endure. Such infamous methods
must be exposed and punished,

immediate friends, have no hesitancy
in calling on us. | wish you success,
Mr.. Smithers, in your efforts to rep

Having witnessed the election of
the representative of the restaurant
trust we waited to see the representa-
tive of the p, D. & Q. railroad flying
through the air to alight in a heap
just outside the door to the room oc-
cupied by the Hon. William Smithers.
But we were disappointed.
The Hon. Mr. Smithers linked arms
with the railroad representative and
escorted him to the door with every
evidence of goodwill.
For some time we have been won

restaurant trust would say if we told
him about it.

HATrERs WIN THEIR CASE.
Danbury Firm Found to Be Counter

Bridgeport, Conn, Aug. 2S.-Judge
Shumway, in the superior court, has
handed down a decision in the suit of
the United Hatters of North America
against c. H. Merritt & Son of Dan
bury, in favor of the plaintiff. The
hatters sued, alleging that the firm
was getting business by counterfeiting
the union label on goods made by
non-union workmen.
Judge Shumway orders an account
ing by the firm with the hatters and
issues a permanent Injunction restrain
ing the firm from using any more of
the offending labels. Jurge Shumway
practically exonerates the non-union
firm from any intention to deceive or
defraud, stating that these allegations
in the suit were not proven, although
at the same time, he finds the firm
guilty of coJtnterfeiting the union

one day last week, the exact scene
being in the palatial dining car. At
one table sat 4 mother and son, the
former dressed in manner indicat-
ing an abundance of this worlds
goods, the latter trim and neat, but
with pale cheeks and hollow eyes.
Just before Elgin, ILL.,, is reached
the train dashes along the banks of
the Illinois river, and looking through
the window the little boy saw scores
of other little boys swimming and
wading in the shallow reaches of the
broad stream. He pressed his pale
face against the window and looked
longingly upon the scene as long as
his eyes could reach it. When the
| scene was no longer visible he sank
back into his chair with an audible
| sigh and ate his meal in silence.
Evidently his childish mind dwelt
upon the scene for full fifteen minutes
later he looked up at his mother, and
in voice full of longing he asked:
| Mamma, did you ever wade in the
water when you was a little girl?"
The question brought a rosy blush
| to the matron's face, and the diners
within earshot smiled at the ques-
ton, even though it brought a pang
to their hearts. The boys tones in

that he had never known the childish

| once a wall and a protest against
parental thoughtlessness that believed
itself to be watchful care. The in

it for many a long day to come.
