WILL MADDEN BE A CANDIDATE?

The contest for congressman in this
district before the primaries between
James Fl. Madden of Ashland and E.
A. Morse of Amigo. was so close that
the many friends of Mr.. Madden in
this the largest district in the state
are urging him to run against Mr..
Morse on an Independent ticket. Mr..
Madden was defeated for the nomina
ton by only 90 votes and hundreds of
voters have written to him since the
primaries saying that they did not
cast their vote that day, and demand
ing that he run independently. Letters
have been received from prominent
republicans in all parts of the district,
especially from Marathon, Lincoln
and Wood counties asking him to al
low his name to appear on the indie
pendent ticket, and promising him
their support if he will do so, but up
to the present time he has made no
decision in the matter that we have
heard of.-Marshtield Times.
We can hardly believe that James
Fl. Madden who made a remarkably
close run for the nomination of Con-
gresham in this district at the Pri-
maries held during the past month,
is likely to be an independent candi-
date at the November election.
His vote was certainly creditable to
him and the fact that he was defeated
by only 80 votes, is evidence that he
was very popular. In politics, the
defeat with 80 majority is just as force
full as if it were 5000. The spirit of
fair play in the Tenth Congressional
district would undoubtedly defeat Mr..
Madden at the polls if he now made
the run.
While he has many friends in Wood
county, we do not believe they would
advise his being candidate for Con-
gress, even though he was defeated at
the primaries with but 80 votes. E. A.
Morse of Amigo, made a clean and
honorable campaign for the nomi-
nation AT the primaries and has won
an honorable victory, and now should
receive the hearty support of Mr..
Madden's friends. We cannot believe
that Mr.. Madden will be an indie
pendent candidate, or will allow his
friends to use his name in this connec-
ton. The REPORTER was impartial
between the two candidates in the con-
test before the primaries but now that
Mr.. Morse has been selected as the
nominee of the party, we pledge him
our faithful and most hearty support,
as we believe in all fairness that he is
entitled to it.

Sum of $&L,l12.2O In the
Hands of County Treasurer
Cooper January |
LARGEST SUM IN HISTORY
County Fund Exceeds Any Previous
Year by Many Thousands of DOL
lars = Only $1,000 Worth of Bonds
Outstanding = Fine Showing in the
Bridge Fund.

With the beginning of the new year
Marshall county finds herself IN the
enviablc position of having in Its
treaslrer's hands more money than at
any time I'm its history. With the be-
ginning of 1906 there stands as repre-
senting the county fund the nagnlil-
cent sum of SS4.412.2o. greater by near
Nv one half over Il year ago, and over
$40. 900 more than four years ago.
Last year, at the beginning OF jan
nary. the county fund showed Il bal
ance of S4S,S45.79, which was consider
ed quite remarkable. Two years ago
II was $50, 16S.35 and that was extra
ordinary.
At the beginning of 1902 there were
other conditions. that are not nearly So
satisfactory as at present IN county aa :
fairs. Then there were S33,ooo worm
of out standing bonds. To-day the
amount is $1,000 and there wouldn pe
a red cent If the holder of the pohas
would consent to their being called IN.
The bridge fund four years ago SHOW
ed a balance of between $o,ooo ana
sc. 900 on the wrong side OF the ledger.
Today 1t is between $4,000 and $5,oo'
to the good.
Every fund of the county is In excel
lent shape at present, excepting poor
farm. and it can be made so by Il
transfer from the county insane fund
The county insane are cared iol
at the moor farm, and the money spent
in their support comes directly from
the moor farm fund The transfer is
NOT made until after the first of the
wear and as soon as that is done the
sund will he in normal condition again.
