combine strength, lodging such bills
as the tonnage tax and the Rockne
stock regulation measure and the
combination paid for this sundry SER
vice in the enactment of his local bills.
He was made big man at home by
being small and ssusefulo in st. Paul.
If might have been the same and
much more, with Mr.. Adams. Had he
chosen the easy way and become
'ssafe'' for the system, he might have
had his name attached to numerous
measures of Importance. He might
have secured large and luscious ap-
preparation plums for his city, and
community. He might have worked
wonders for himself locally, had be
yielded to the strings that pulled the
combination together. But he pre-
ferred to remain patriotic and un-
popular; to go home 'sempty handed"
to hear the voice of the combination
speaking it's splte-"The gentleman
from Otter Tail has made himself
very obnoxious"
I specialize the cases of Adams and
Doyle because the "combination" was
built largely upon threats and trades.
The general scheme gave many mem
bers choice of being obnoxious"
and going home "empty handed ''or
of doing the bidding of the cabinet on
the big questions affecting the cor
porations and in return receiving a
substantial share of local appropria-
tions and special laws for their COM
munities.
If yonr member returned home with
small bridge appropriations and other
local accomplishments to his credit,
it is not always sign that he repre-
sented you poorly. It may be evil
dence, rather, that he rightly refused
to become party to that purely sell
fish and pernicious policy which dis
eliminated in favor of certain COM
munities and against the whole COM
monwealth. ...

A Grand Meeting.

The recent meeting of the Louisville
Conference, Woman's Foreign Mission.
airy Society, held in Louisville, was a
great occasion. DR.. w. w. Prison,
one of the two Secretaries of the Board
of Missions, preached grand sermon
Sunday morning in the beautiful tenn
pie, corner Sixth and Broadway. Rev.
E. F. Goodson, on the same evening,
edited and delighted large audience.
The love feast in the afternoon was a
season of great power, led by Mrs. H..
c. Morrison. The business and even
ing sessions were very enjoyable. Miss
Atkinson, who has been in China
twenty-five years, and Mrs. Trueheart,
Secretary of the Woman's Board, visit
ing missionaries from other churches,
helped to render the occasion one long
to be remembered.
This Louisville Conference Society
supports two missionaries, six bible
women, twenty-five scholarships, be-
sides pledges for a new building-an
annex in Brazil, to be called THE Mat
tie Watts Annex" after our pioneer
missionary to Brazil, who began work
in Piracicaba in 1881. This city is said
to be the most moral in Brazil and this
fact is said to be due to the influence of
our school at that point.
Miss Waits influence is felt through
out Brazil. The Conference makes an
nual pledges, also, to our Training
School for missionaries and other
Christian workers at Kansas City. A
total of 50, 900 was pledged by the Cor
responding Secretary, outside of dues,

BUT CUTICURA WORKS
A MIRACULOUS CURE

"When my little boy was six months
old he had eczema. The sores extended
90 quickly over the whole body that
we at once called in the doctor. We
then went TO another doctor, but he
could not help him, and in our despair
we went TO a third one. Matters be-
came 80 bad that he had regular holes in
his cheeks, large enough to put a finger
into. The food had to be given with
a spoon, for his mouth was covered
with crusts as thick as a finger. and when
ever he opened the mouth they began
70 bleed and suppurate. as did also his
eyes. Hands, arms, chest, and back, in
short the whole body was covered over
and over. We had no rest by day or
night. Whenever he was laid in his
bed, we had to. pin his hands down,
otherwise he would scratch his face and
make an open sore. l think his face
must have itched most feafully.
We finally thought nothing could
help. and had made up my mind to
send my wife with the child to Europe,
hoping that the sea air might cure him,
otherwise he was TO be put under good
medical care there. But, Lord be
blessed, matters came differently, and
we soon saw a miracle. A friend Of
ours spoke about Cuticura. We made
a trial with Cuticura Soap, Ointment,
and Resolvent, and within ten days or
two weeks we noticed a decided inn
pnovement. just as quickly as the
sickness had appeared it also began TO
disappear, and within ten weeks the
child was absolutely well, and his skin
was smooth and white as never before.

River Falls Second Place.

1t is over. The contest season is
a thing of the past. Nearly two
hundred high schools in Wisconsin
entered the oratorical lists this
spring, and six of them appeared in
the final at Wausau last Friday eve
ming. Through series of locals,
leagues and districts, each of the
speakers had fought his way to an
honorable place in the state contest
and each of them three-times win
ner hoped to come home the winner
of the highest place in the state.
But there were six to speak and
only one could win. Five must be
disappointed. River Falls was one
of the five, yet so close did RIVER
Falls come to the coveted winners
place that his disappointment was
materially softened by the knowl-
edge, admitted by the winners that
the River Falls speaker was to all
intents and purposes fully equal to
the winner, and was second only
hecarSe a decision had to he made

giving one of the speakers first,
and the flip gave it ito Wausau.
AS was TO be expected, the con-
test was splendid. Such speaking
is credit to any one, and especial
ly to high school boys. All six
were stars, yet the judges ranked
Wausau and River Falls as clearly
the best of the lot, Fond du Lac and
Sheboygan as another pair of equal
merit, and Beloit and Superior fol-
towing. Twenty River Fallsites
listened TO the contest and were
proud of their speaker and of the
place he won.
The judges were Circuit Judge
James O'Neill, Neillsville; Attorney
Edward M. Smart, Merrill; Presi-
dent John F. Sims, Stevens Point;
Assemblyman John F. Baker, Alma
Center; Prof. Thomas A. Knott,

Memorial Day is not alone to be
observed by members of the Grand
Army of the Republic, but for all
the people, and cordial invitation
is extended to the Mayor and Coun-
Gil, the men who followed the flag
in the days of 1861 to 1865 who are
not members of our order, the Span
ish American soldiers, the w. r. c.,
the teachers and pupils of the
schools, civic and fraternal socie-
ties, and all the citizens to be with
us in observing the day. 1t is hop
ed that the Mayor will issue q
proclamation requesting that all
places of business be closed, and
that citizens drop their labors and
amusements during the time that is
devoted to decoration and memorial
services.
May 26th is Memorial Sunday and
the Post and Corps will gather at
headquarters at $3.50 a. m. and
march in body to the Congrega-
tional church. Rev. d. B. Spencer
will deliver an address suitable to
the day and the occasion.

year these teams played series of
four games, each team winning

1t is likely that a great many
young men join the regular army
with the expectation of finding an
easy Job. While it is true that the
actual work the enlisted men per-
form is light and easy the monotony
of the service is found to be very
tiresome. Consequently many of
the soldiers in time of peace be-
come tired of the service and not a
few so Disguised that they prefer to
take the consequences of desertion
rather than to remain and serve out
their time. The army consists of
IS, 900 men of all arms. Last year
6,258 men deserted.
Isaac Stephenson was nominated
by the Republican caucus of the
legislature on the 85th ballot May
16, as United States senator to sue
coed John c. Spooner and the next
day was elected by the legislature
in joint session. The election IS
for the nuexpired term ending in
1909. The election of Mr.. Stephen
son gives general satisfaction. He
is a staunch Republican, upholding
the President in his reform policies.
Mr.. Stephenson has served three
terms in Congress as representa-
tive from this state, elected in 1882,
reelected in 1884 and 1886 but de-
clining a denomination in 1888. He
was candidate for United States
senator in 1899 when J. v. Quarles
was elected.
