Racine Times: General Bragg is not
alone in the view that democracy in
Wisconsin and in fact the whole north
has been killed by its own leaders. For
over thirty years democracy stood for
code Of principles that no man need
be ashamed to acknowledge his own. 1t
did so steadfastly and in face Of contin-
uous and overwhelming defeat. It's
skirts were clean Of any indecent allan
ces or trucking subseyiency to other
isms. 1t went down bravely but with
honor in defeat. But for several years
it has been the catspaw of designing
politicians. Its fair name has been
smirched by the unholy alliances it has
made and it would have been a miracle
if it had won a victory under such cir
cumstances. Democracy must first rid
itself of its unclean leaders and go back
to it's broad basic principles before 1t
can ever win back the respect and con
fidence of the mass of voters.

What looks like an immediate re
Spouse to the gloomy predictions Of Fore
caster Stevens at Washington, is re
ported from New York. Forecaster
Stevens, il will be remembered. a few
days ago gave vent to an interesting
prophecy TO the effect that twenty-nine
Of the chief cities of the world are to
be destroyed within the next two years
as result of the wrath of heaven, Fire,
flood and earthquake were selected by
him as destroying agencies.
And now from New York, which of
course figured in Mr. Stevens list,
comes the interesting news of a % year
old youth having been arrested in that
thriving. although ungodly city after
setting fire to half dozen or SO of
apartment buildings.
When brought into the awe inspiring
presence of tho precinct captain the
youth confessed the crimes, but boldly

THAT part of Labor Commissioner
Beck's report pertaining to cooperative

the people of Wisconsin. Mr.. Beck stat

third place in the list, having only thirty

Mineral Point Zinc Works.

Mr.. J. II. Lewis touches on the Min
eral Point Zinc Works in the following
entertaining and accurate style in his
gathering of mining news for the last
week Galena Tribune
"The visitor to the zinc mining dis
trict of the northwest should not fail
before retiring from the field to visit
the great oxide works and acid plant at
the city of Mineral Point. Here, where
at the present time two great double
fourteen furnace blocks are burning 80
to 100 ton Of ore day, is presented the
most instructive and withal, the most
interesting spectacle in the region, and
perhaps in the entire United States.
The great furnaces single compart-
ments are fed from double doors. A
charge of hard coal screenings gives the
furnace it's start and when the layer
becomes live ember a charge of ore is
fed from both sides The mixing mach
inc divides about 400 pounds of ore to
500 of soft coal screening spread evenly
over the retorts. Ignition is sudden and
the interior is a magnificent spectacle
to observe from the lookout. The fumes
of the ore assume a greenish hue,
which grows in intensity Gntil it be-
comes a ghostly, wierd blue, with red
piercing shafts of light that gather
strength as the heat increases. Sever
al hours are required to burn off a
charge, which becomes when burned
out a placid crater filled with a bed of
live embers. Through all the perform
ance not one iota of smoke has been
seen to escape from the gigantic plant.
In this mystery hes hidden the success
that makes this process famous, for the
fumes have been conducted by both
draft and suction force TO the bag room,
where the black charge is shook into
barrels a product ready for market, and
rs white as the driven snow. The work
of cleaning the furnaces calls for en-
durance of heroic measure from the
furnace tenders, as Ike heat is terrific
and the white intense glow fierce to be-
hold SO that the men as they draw their
rakes throw their free arm up oyer

One Thing We Must fave.

We can live without food for thirty
days or more, we can live without wa
ter for about seven days; we cannot
live without air, however for five min
utes. Consequently, as much or more
attention should be paid to our water
and air supplies as to our food. There
should be vigilant inspection of school

He Shaved Often.

Here Is a story that is going
round: A very devout church
deacon being somewhat in
disposed was being advised by
his doctor to try a hot toddy, but
he objected on account of the
bad example set before his fam
lily. "That's easy said the
doctor. "Just call for hot water,
saying that you wish to shave,
and keep the other ingredients
in your possession" The next
day neighbor called to inquire
how the deacon was getting along.
''He seems to be feeling much
BETTER" said his wife. "He
shaved three times last night and
twice this morning."

Umbrella Language.

10 place your umbrella in a
rack indicates that it is about to
change owners; an umbrella car
ried over a woman, the man
getting nothing but the drippings
of the rain, signifies courtship;
when the man has the umbrella
and the woman the drippings. it
indicates marriage; to carry it
at an angle under the arm sig
nifies that an eye is to be lost by
the man who follows you; to put
a cotton umbrella by the side of

high enough to tear out mems

w. M. WALLACE
AspiPes to be Member of State
Board of Equalization.

In accordance with an act of
the Legislature, creating the
State Board of Equalization,
which is to be constituted of one
member from each of the con-
gre -sional districts of Louisiana,
there must be nominated in each
district Il member of said com
mittec. The date for the pri-
mary nomination is September 6,
and of the gentlemen aspiring to
become Il member of the board
from the Fourth Congressional
District, is Mr.. w. NJ. Wallace
of Winfield. an attorney by pre-
fessiop and a gentleman fully
qualified to fulfill the duties of
the position. Mr.. Wallace is the
son of Hon. j. Il. Wallace, the
chairman of the Democratic En-
ecutive Committee of the Fourth
Congressional District, and has
many friends throughout the
district who pledged him their
untiring and loyal support.
The position created by the
Legislature is one of great re-
sponsibillty, and as the name
implies and as the law directs is
to equalize fairly and honestly
the assessed values of the State.
To fill such requirements the
claiIus of the candidate having
obtained the experience requisite
BY practical service will doubtless
be considered by the voters who,
i'm their choice, will favor the
best man for this Office.
As Mr.. Wallace has lived in a
parish where is to be found all
the varieties of soil as are known
in Louisiana, and as he has
gained practical and valuable
knowledge of such lands, he will
be well equipped for the position
he seeks, which, coupled with his
ability, should secure for him the
good will and the active support
of the voters of the district. Ii
is safe to say that he will have no
in his home parish.
which will endorse him to a man.

This information can very
easily be shown on the reverse

with the requirements.
II is most important that the
general feed trade take cogni-
xance of these important require
ments, as all shipments found in
violation of the law, which be-
CONES operative and in FULL force
on September 1st. 1906, will be
siexed wherever found.
The law does not refer to inter-
state shipments made to Louisia-
ia ports for expectation.
The State has an established
system controlling the inspection
of commercial feeds and has been
keeping q stringent supervision
over shipments of mixed feed for
the past two years. The service
has been in operation for some
years past and is thoroughly or
Ranized and equipped, its chief
work for the past five years rela-
ting to Commercial Fertilizers.
The inspection department has
carefully compiled q list of grain
millers, besides completing
thorough canvass for names from
The different commercial exchan-
pes of the West and Southwest,
and has a very extensive list of
names of parties to whom a copy
Of the new law has been sent.
The law will be enforced.
The most economic and safest
basis for miller's operation in
feed traffic Of Louisiana is to reg
lister each brand to be offered for
sxle there, with Commissioner
Chas. Schiller, by sending . quar-
~ pound sample and guaranteed
snaIysis. as well as the name of
brand and any other information
ct once. Only By this direct reg
istration can q very great amount
Of detailed formaiities be avoided.
It will not cost any manufacturer
one cent to register and it may
save them many dollars of ex-
pense In otherwise failing to
comply with law. Manufacturers
and dealers DESTROYS of register

Baton Rouge, La, at once.
