SENATOR LAFoILETTE recently made
a speech before the Chautauqua assem-

subscriber writes as follows: ''The cy-

dience remained spell-bound, intent, UNI

THE Reedsburg Press, in an effort to
defend Congressman Bahcock, plain
lively asks, What can one man do!'
This is practically a frank admission
that Babcock has done nothing for the
people He has done something, how
ever. His rapid increase of wealth prov
es that. One nah can do great deal
and no one knows it better than Bah
cock, and, still, when the public was
anxiously watching congress in hopes
that it would pass an effective railros I
law, an effective pure food law and an
effective meat inspection law, not one
word in favor Of these laws was heard
from Mr.. Babcock and, so far as we
know, he did not as much as turn over
his hand to secure their passage. In
deed about the only times Babcock re-
ceived notice in the Washington reports
was when it was made public that he
collected S2500 from The New York
Mutual Life.

Wasted Assistance.

Whatever might be said against the
new primary election law, it has one
highly meritorious feature, and that is
the stopping of assistance from parties
of one political faith to nominate some
one Of another political faith. The law
reads thus. eff any elector write upon
his ticket the name of any person who
is a candidate for the same Office upon
some other ticket than that upon which
his name is written, this ballot shall be
counted for such person only as can
didate of the party upon whose ticket
his name is written, and shall in no case
be counted for such person as a candid
ate upon any other ticket.
For illustration: If Democrat in vot
ing his party ticket at the primary, err
asses the name of the man running for
nomination of representative in con-
gress on the Democratic ticket, and
writes in lieu thereof the name of j.
w, Babcock, the vote can be counted
for Mr.. Babcock only as Democrat.
1t cannot be added to the total vote
given Mr.. Babcock on the Republican
ballot. OF course, the same rule applies
to all candidates, and is good one By
it no Republican can help a Democrat
and no Democrat can help a Republican
to secure a nomination. Inspectors of
election should get this law well i'm
pressed in their minds: it will aid them
materially in getting at the result of
the primary vote.

FOR Congress.

1t is of immense interest to the vot-
ers of the Third Congressional District
that they have n representative in con-
gress who is fit for the place. Fit for it
10y virtue of the native quality of his
character, fit for it 10y virtue of his ed
ucation and ability; fit for it 10y virtue
of his love of justice, honesty, faithful
ness and square dealing. fit for it by
reason of his desire to serve the inter
ests that affect us as a people We
want a man there that is not so much
saturated with politics that his CON
science is numbed, who viii do things
for politics sake that mis- manhood ought
to be ashamed Of. A man Of that char
acter is no man to represent the people
of this district We want a man to
stand 49, ir c,gNcyss aid aght wistiy,
tactfully, courageously, for the inter-
ests of the common people; who has
heart and soul above the trickery and
slime of politics; who cares more for
the common, struggling masses than he
does for rich corporations Who win
see his duty and steer for it single eyed
and honestly. That the kind of a mar
we want. We want him in sympathy
with the reform movements which
Roosevelt, La Toilette, Folk, Weaver

Marshall Field Succumbs

ANOTHER great and wealthy
man, whose name was known all
over the world, was called across
the great divide yesterday after
noon and Marshall Field of Chic
ago, ceased to live. He was
stricken with pneumonia in New
York several days ago and his
death had been expected almost
hourly. With the passing of Mr..
Field, goes one of the world s
most successful merchants and
richest men, his fortune being
estimated at anywhere from.
S10o,000,o00 to 5000. 100000 His
record is worthy of study and
example. He made it rule never
to borrow money and never issue
a note. He paid cash for every
thing he bought, not only in con-
nection with his dry goods enter
prise, but for all his dealings in
real estate and other invest
ments.
When seventeen years old he left
home and became a clerk in a
general country store in Pitts
field. Mass. Four years later he
went to Chicago and his marked
ability soon brought him part

reverse ever experienced by the
house Of Marshall Field & Co.
was in the great Chicago fire of
1871, when the firm lost some.

While building up the dry
goods store which has grown to
such mammoth proportions, Mr..
Field, who was a firm believer in
the future Of Chicago, invested
heavily in real estate, and to the
appreciation Of this in value he
owed much Of his wealth. At
the close of the Worlds fair in
1898 Mr.. Field endowed with
f$1, 100000 the museum now
known as the Field Colum bian
museum for which home valued
at S8,OOO,OOO is shortly to be
jerected in the heart of the city
He later gave to the university of
Chicago land valued at $45O,OOO
to be used for athletic purposes,
and a portion of it is known to-
day as Marshall Field. He was
extremely charitable in other
directions, never failing to con-
tribute to ca11se which he knew
to be worthy.

handsome man, a trif1e above

socially, although he never min

generally understood. In his
personal tastes and habits he was
quite and modest. In politicsbe

was always ready to aid with
time and money any movement
looking toward better national

After Depew's Scalp:
SENATOR 3 ackett yesterday
offered resolution in the New
York legislature demanding the
resignation OF Chauncey NJ.
Depew as United States Senator.
The democrats refused to vote,
explaining that mas ~ UGH as they
had no hand in creating Depew a
senator, they would take no part
lin his recall. The resolution was
defeated by a vote of "a to / but

Depew but Senator Platt also.
He said:

pect little Of respect for law,
little Of regard for public honor

first long steps toward condor,

Any senator present, he said,

representation Of his state in the
United States senate by either

claimed the slightest response

laughter and contempt.
Referring to the so called "ytl-
low dog" funds Of certain insur-

the money stolen was we'll spent.

These. with other requirements lim-
iting the fare to five cents and the
life of the ordinance to ten years, and
requiring a fifteen minute schedule,
will make the way of the trolley, like
that Of the transgressor, hard indeed.
While we believe that the Council
is entirely right to protect the City
from possible loss, it would seem
that one bond of $4,000 might cover
all the conditions imposed, and that
franchise tax Of $500 would COM
pensate the City for any loss Incl

The proposed ordinance has the
merit of impartiality toward all
