Question of Taxes.

Some time ago 0. E. Peterson Sc
cured an injunction from the circuit
court preventing the refundlng or linn
itation of the paper mill taxes, as was
proposed by resolution of the city
fathers something over a year ago.
He has recently entered complaint
before the state tax commission, al
leging unequal assessment of city prop
erty, with special reference to the
assessment of the paper mill property.
Mr.. Peterson alleges that the paper
mill property should be assessed at
$500, 600.
The tax commission fixed upon yes
terday as the date of hearing upon the
complaint, citing Mr.. Peterson and
the city officers to appear before the
board at Madison. On request of some
of the parties who found it inconvenient
to appear yesterday, the hearing was
postponed until next Thursday.
Should the tax commission hold the
assessment improper new assessment
will be ordered by an assessor appoint
ed by the commission, otherwise the
matter will come to an end.

T. T.. Jordan for Clerk of Court.

The canvas for the Office of clerk OF
the circuit court has not been very
active one. The candidates are I. L..
Jordan and j. M. Hurless. Both are
good people and would make good Off
GERS. Mr.. Hurless has had office near
ly six years. Mr.. Jordan has never
held county Office in Rusk county.
He is an present chairman of his town.
He has cleaned one farm and made
good headway on second home.
Mr.. Jordan is a pleasant, hard-work-
ing man. He will make faithful
officer, for the duties of which he is
well equipped.
Many believe that if county office
is a burden, one man should not be
asked to carry it always; and if a good
thing, it should be passed around. In
either event Mr.. Jordan should come in
for consideration.

THOMAS OR EMMERTON
Which Shall Represent This District
in the Next Session of the
Assembly.

The collapse of the grandilloquent
campaign started by the Brigg man
ayers, leaves the issue simple one.
The decision will be between Thomas
and Emmerton.
The voters of the district will want
to pass upon the merits of these two
candidates, not in general way, as
good fellows or otherwise, but as can
didates for this particular Office. They
want man sent to Madison who will
be most likely to render valuable SER
vice to the district, the man in fact
who is best equipped to enter conflict
where keen intellects, active ambitions
and personal and special interests are
to be encountered. To meet this occa-
sion special training and experience
will come into active play. There is
no question that Mr.. Briggs is out of
the race as far as the result is concern
ed.
The situation thus resolves itself to
a choice between Mr.. Thomas and Mr..
Emmerton. Mr.. Thomas has always
been a republican, Mr.. Emmerton has
always been a democrat except when
greenbacker and populist. Mr.. Thomas
has never been an office seeker. Mr..
Lmmerton has run for the assembly
two times at least Mr.. Thomas is in
the vigor of mental and physical man
hood, Mr.. Emmerton is beyond the
proverbial three score years and ten.
Mr.. Thomas is schooled to field of
mental conflict, Mr.. Fmmerton is train
ed to the quiet vocation of the farm.
Mr.. Thomas is a good mixer with men,
Mr.. Emmereon is possessed of the op-
posite characteristics. Mr.. Thomas is
a good debater. Mr.. Emmerton is not
schooled in that field of endeavor. Mr..
Thomas has wide acquaintance with
the men who will centrol legislation,
Mr. Emmerton certrinly is less favor
ably situated for effective assembly
work. Mr.. Thomas has life's ambitions
before him, Mr.. Emmerton has written
his, we are glad to say, in a good per-
sonal history.
Such is the situation. 1t is busi-
ness proposition. The old adage of
young men for war; applies to all
fields of conflict, mental as well as
physical. Again, we say, this is a
business proposition-that is why we
favor Theodore M. Thomas.

Sergent for County Clerk.

The News believes in passing good
things around. The county clerkship
is one of the good things. One would
think that the office was one demand
ing immense talent when listening to
the talk of the court house crowd.
1t might be well to import someone
has handled the work all right. He
has made a good county clork. There
is no question but that an examination
of the county records will show every
thing in good shape. What does this
indicate? Merely that any man of
reasonable talent can perform the
work. Any other talk is rot and nom
sense.
O. A. Sergent is young man of
more than ordinary talent. He is a
school teacher of experience. He has
the esteem of his patrons. He has
many friends every acquaintance is a
friend He will, if elected, make a
most excellent county officer.
Mr.. Munroe has done the work six
years. If it is a burden, he should
be excused from further service. If
it is good thing, he has had it long
enough. Putting the matter either
way, there is no reason why there
should not be change. If not now,
when? Is Rusk county Office to be a
pension bureau? There is a question.
The Journal comments on the short
time Sergent has been in the county.
He has been here less than century,
and so have most of us, but he has
been in the county about ten times
as long as Briggs who is supported
by the Journal and twice as long as
Munroe had been when he took the
office of county clerk. The Journal
would argue Sergent into Office and
Briggs into oblivion. 1t must have
been under such advocacy that the
fellow cried: Lord, save me from
my friends" O. A. Sergent is good
fellow, bright fellow and a deserving
fellow.
Ladysmith news. [volume] (Ladysmith, Wis.) 1906-1907, 1906-09-01

Of Mr.. Thomas nomination by a
large majority the News has not the
slightest doubt. The people usually do
the right thing when in possession of
the facts. The News has endeavored
to give the facts. Some time ago we
gave brief biography of Mr.. Thomas.
He was born in this state 36 years ago,
worked on the farm at home, taught
school to get money with which to pre-
pare for his profession and has fought
his way to success in his chosen vocation
in fact his career is record of sue
cesses. After establishing a law busi-
ness at Beavor Dam, he sold it and came
to Rusk county. Here he has again
built up a law business second to none.
These are things that speak of ability
and of that characteristic in men that
begets confidence. Such men are u.s.
ually effective wherever they go-the
combination of ability and energy with
the power to secure confidence.
Mr.. Thomas has the faculty of being
on the right side where difference of
opinion prevails. He is a man of origi-
nal thought. He will recognize good
idea wherever found. No constituent
will hesitate to offer suggestions and
none will fail of a careful hearing. All
interests will find that their interests
are carefully considered.
Mr.. Thomas will command the re-
spectful attention of his fellows in the
assembly-and here is one of the main
points to be considered, for where is the
use of being right in legislative body
If ones influence is not felt? What we
want in the assembly is man of action,
one who does things, a man who will
impress others. Such man is Theodore
M. Thomas.
This is business proposition, one in
which the one question should prevail:
what can the candidate accomplish?
And the basis for conclusion is-what
has he accomplished? This district, in
common with northern Wisconsin, has
interests that need and deserve atten-
tion-place those interests in the hands
of man of talent, good judgment and
activity, and they will be cared for. In
other words place them in the hands of
a success Theodore M. Thomas.

YOU will doubtless often have occasion
to meet him at the office OF register
of deeds during the next two calendar
years.

tween right and wrong, between good

ical county government.

Makes a Plain Talk From Business
mans Practical Stand
point.

Ole G. Kinney, candidate for con
gress, accompanied by w. w. Potter
Of Chippewa Ealls, was in Ladysmitt
Tuesday. A meeting was held IN
Anderson's hall at which both gentle
men spoke briefly.
Mr.. Potter argued that his towns
man, Mr.. Jenkins, had not proved te
be a man of the people, had not stood
with La Toilette when the fight was
the hottest. He claimed to have a
friendly feeling for Mr. jenkins and
placed his opposition strictly upon po-
litical lines.
Mr.. Kinney proved to bean earnest
speaker. He possesses the leading
characteristic of the Norwegian race,
that of extreme earnestness. Mr..
Kinney reviewed his experience in the
assembly where he had worked for the
railway rate bill, the primary election
bill, the advolorum tax bill and his own
favorite-for the establishment of a
sanitarium for consumptives. His
story of the struggles for these meas
ures was pleasantly told.
Mr.. Kinney paid splendid compli-
ment to his predecessor in the assem-
bly,, the Hon. Albert R. Hall, and de-
clared that his endeavors in the assem-
bly, were to carry out the unfinished
work of his illustrious predecessor.
Mr.. Kinney protested against certain
effects of the presents tariff, said that
the issues now before congress are
in line with those recently passed upon
in Wisconsin, that La Toilette is the
greatest man in the senate and that,
if elected to congress, he would do all
in his power to second the efforts of
the junior senator.
Mr.. Kinney said that graft is the
worst evil prevailing in American af-
fairs today and depicted wherein it
was encountered during his experience
in the assembly.
Mr.. Kinney left on the limited We'd
nesday morning for Superior. He says
that he is confident of victory.

Maloney for District Attorney.

Maloney for District Attorney.
Parhaps the News has said enough on
the subject of the district attorneyship.
1t favors Maloney for business reasons
only. It has no desire to boost the one
candidate or lay rocks in the way Of
the other. Both are good fellows, both
have friends, as all people should. If
you are a friend of one and believe in
the policy of the other, you should
certainly vote as you think. In poll
tics friendship should take second place
to principle.
The machine people have endeavored
to make it appear that no graft exists
in Rusk County. One of Williams
supporters devoted a column to an eff
fort to show that Maloney was wrong
in asserting that the sheriff is limited to
S5.OO per day when OH on county Dusl-
ness. Maloney responds with a su-
preme court decision that is plain and
conclusive. It shows that Williams has
not performed his duty as the law
commands.
The issue in this contest is clearly
business proposition. It is whether the
county shall pay more than is necessary
for service rendered to it. The News
believes that the county does well when
it pays the established rates. 1t be-
Heves that the people who pay taxes
are weary of extravaganza and that,
as solution to the question, will vote
for D. w. Maloney for district attor-
ney.

Parties Referred to by Can
didafn

Inc NEWS is III receipt OIL C1e IOllOW-
ing letters regarding the subjoined
statement that appeared in the New
Auburn Times over the signature of
o. G. Briggs:
AS to my fitness and ability |
refer you to
and to the heads of the leading lum-
Der companies of Rusk county, all
of whom are supporting me for the
office.'
HAWKINS, Wis, August 26, 1906.
To the Republicans Of the Second As
sembly District of Chippewa and
Rusk Counties;
Gentlemen: have just read in the
New Auburn Times statement signed
by one O. G. Briggs of Bruce, Wis, in
which he says; Gas to my fitness and
ability refer you (among others) to
the heads of every leading lumber COM
pany of that (Rusk) county, all of
whom are supporting me for the office.
Now, | just called up Mr.. E. D. Van
Etten of the Ingram Lumber company
and he emphatically declares that is in
favor of Mr.. Thomas and authorizes
the writer to say that he surely would
not support Mr.. Briggs. Mr.. Van Et-
ten characterized the coming out of
Briggs as "a DEAL" and as
sured me that no member of the In
gram Lumber company had promised
Mr.. Briggs any support.
The writer never met Mr. Briggs
and I am confident none of our officers
ever made his acquaintance and posi-
lively never promised him support.
| have also talked with Mr.. P. HI.
Shafer, chairman of the county board
md head of the Ellsworth Manufacture
ing company, and he declares that he
never met Mr.. Briggs nor ever thought
of supporting him.
To say that I am surprised that Mr..
O. G. Briggs (said to be minister of
the GospeD should stoop to this deliber-
ately false statement, is expressing
my feelings very mildly Iwish to say
10 you: Be careful don't make such a
man your lawmaker. If we are to send
to Madison men that have no respect
for truth, but try to get your votes by
bold and deliberate false statements
what can we expect as to results?
G.. K. ELLINGsoN,
Oh mn Board of Directors of Ellingson
Lumber Company.
LADYsMITH, WIS, Aug. %.
My attention has been called to a
statement made by O. G. Briggs, can
didate for the assembly for this assem-
bly, district, published in the New
Auburn Times Aug. %, to the effect
"that he has the support of the heads
of all of the leading lumber companies
of Rusk Co." This comes to me as a
surprise. / have not made the acquain-
tance of Mr.. Briggs, nor have l been
consulted by his friends in reference to
his candidacy. I wish it distinctly un-
derstood that I am not endorsing Mr..
Briggs candidacy for the position
named, and his use of my name in con-
nection with his candidacy is assumed d
by him without my knowledge or con-
sent. | am surprised that Mr.. Briggs,
after setting forth as he has in the
New Auburn Times his special fitness
for the office, should attempt to mis-
lead the voters of this assembly district
by false statements of this character.
disapprove of this course on his
part and he must have known it to be
a false statement when he made it over
his signature.
Respectfully yours,

Manager of Menasha w. w. Co.
