Press Comments on Circuit Judgeship.
Richland Center Rustic:

Richland Center Rustic:
From over across the river comes
the news that Tom Cleary's coming
out in opposition to Judge Clement
son was after Mr.. ClearY had had
assurance from prominent CD at
tOrney from Richland Center, that
there is some dissatisfaction with
ClementsOn and Cleary has been
promised that if he would run he
could feel assured Of carrying Rich
land county.
Whether this be true or rot, it is
true that two attorneys Of Richland
Center are opposing the reelection
of ClementsOn, but we can scarcely
imagine that anyone within as close
proximity to this county as neigh
boring counties, should consider
either of these in the light of suf-
ficient prominence to believe that
they bad it within their power to
deliver the votes Of Richland coun-
ty like cattle, especially at a judic-
lal election.
Mr.. Patrick Henry Fay and Mr..
Michael Murphy, a couple gentle
men who keep out signs with the
word Attorney" affixed thereto,
are, we are certain, the only at
torneys in this county who are OPP
posing Clementson, and people here
/ are too familiar with the why of
this to be surprised at it.
However, if we were compelled to
face the matter with a grave neces-
sity of guessing, we would not
hesitate IN registering an opinion
that the people Of this county are
far too well pleased with Judge
C'ementson, to take any interest in
grievances of Mr.. Fay and Mr..
Murphy, except, perchance, those
who are familiar with the circum-
stances, are as willing to endorse
the judges action in those two in
stances as in any decisions he has
ever given.

nearly nine years. Feb. %, 1897
he was sadly bereaved by the death
OF his wife who had been an invalid
for some time.
Feb. 4, 1900, he was married
again to Miss Nellie Koppedrajer.
One daughter and son were born
to them, the son dying in infancy.
About a year ago it was dis
covered that an operation would be
necessary to relieve an ailment
from which he had been a patient
sufferer for a long time. 1t was
apparently too late to remove the
malady from his system and
although everything that was
known to medical skill was restored
to, yet he grew steadily worse until
the end came.
He leaves to mourn his loss, his
wife and four children, and aged
father, two brothers and two sisters
at Lancaster, Wis, one brother,
w. A. Austin, of Austinville, two
half brothers, Henry and William,
Austinville and one half sister, Miss
Eliza Austin, who lives with her
father at Lancaster.
Mr.. Austin was a man of sterling
uprightness and integrity, and by
his quiet unassuming manner had
established himself firmly in the
hearts of large circle of friends
and acquaintance, who with the
nearer relatives feel keenly the loss
sustained by the death of good
neighbor and loyal citizen. A low
ing son and brother, a devoted
husband and father, true friend,
he will be sadly missed.
The funeral services were held on
Wednesday at the late residence,
conducted by Rev. L. M. Beebe
pastor of the Presbyterian church
of Seymour, Iowa, and interment
was in Pleasant View cemetery at
Arlington, Iowa.
Hon. j. B. johnson of MOntfort
was in the city Monday.

No little state politics was talked
in Washington during the last
week, due no doubt to the fact tt at
Speaker Lenroot, the admmistra-
ton candidate for governor, as well
as Secretary of State Houser, were
in the city. There were confer
ences here between the LaFollette
men and the state situation was
fully discussed. 1t is believed that
Houser was taken into the Lenroot
camp and that from this time on he
will be enrolled as one of the lead
ers of the LenrOot campaign in
Wisconsin. Among the Wisconsin
politicians who are in the city this
step is looked upon with consider
able surprise as Houser has been re-
garded as one of the principal lieu
tenants of Gov. Davidson in his
campaign for the nomination. Len
