Gov. Davidson, after learning that he
was nominated by an overwhelming ma

Il would indeed be an migrate if l did
not highly appreciate the mark of CON
fidence given me by the Republicans of
Wisconsin at the recent primaries. The
campaign just closed has been the most
remarkable one ever witnessed in Wis
consin.
During my campaign throughout the
state l discovered that practically no one
in the Republican party was opposed to
the reforms and policies l have advo-
Gated fOl mary years and in which
claim to have been a pioneer. | was
much gratiie6 10 discover these senti-
ments among the people and know that
the so-called sta-wart faction was not
opposed to the position L have taken on
these reforms, but their support of me
was based upon the ground that my
nomination would best promote the con-
tinued ascendency of the Republican
party in this state. with which party |
have been allieu ever since | came to
this country. / believe that this was
the prevailing idea. and the governing
cause of my support.
1T is my opinion that the prosperity
of the American people depends upon
the continued control of the Republican
party. l believe that the party can be
trusted to remedy all evils, and to Sc
cure for the people that which is due
them.
To all Republicans who have given
to me such generous and cordial support
without conditions, without pledges, and
without request or solicitation. l feel the
deepest gratitude and give them the as
surance that. if elected by the people,
est of the whole people of the state
No backward step will be taken in the
things that l believe to be right, and it
will be my endeavor TO so conduct the
coming campaign as to receive the sup
port of every Republican and every fair
minded Democrat in the state

Foundations of Pinochle.

Pinochle has enjoyed a long run at the
London club. From the straight two
handed ga lie, with the double pinochle
eliminated, the members graduated to
the fourhanded game. then the auction
feature was added, later an obligation
was required of the player making the
trumps, and finally when the novelty had
worn off the groups of four separated
again into pairs. Now the twohandcd
game, with the obligation and auction
combined, is having a run, and many

SWEDISH HANDICRAFTS.
Peasants Do Much Good Hand Work
Result Is Few Factories.

Sweden is the home of the handicrafts.
In addition to manual training taught in
schools, the most exquisite hand weay-
ing, lace making, brass work. even pot
terry, is done by the peasants. Each dis
trict has its own patterns, which the
peasants make and wear. deeming it I'M
patriotic to have aught to do with pat
terms of other localities.
Because of the handicrafts Sweden has
not many textile factories. says The
Craftsman. although there are some
where conditions of work are, for the
most part. good. The people, however.
are encouraged to continue hand weaving
and to hold to their time honOred indus
trial customs rather than to take the
risk of disturbed economic order due to
market glutted with shoddy trash. In
all Sweden there are today only about
10000 factories of all kinds, employing
in all a little more than 265,O0O work
men-nOt a great number out of n total
population of more than 100000.

Gen. Macarthur will retire for age
June ., 1909. He has a son who is a
lieutenant in the United States navy,
and another who is first lieutenant in
the engineer corps, now serving on his
fathers staff. AS the general will con-
tinue to command the division of the
Pacific, it is likely that Lieut.. Douglas
Macarthur will be given the rank of
lieutenant colonel while serving on the
staff of the lieutenant general, as that
officer is entitled to two aides bearing
that rank.
