TIE VERNON COUNTY FAIR

The Vernon County fair will open
one week from next Tuesday. and
every effort is being put forth to make
it the biggest winner in the history of
the association. The management is
doing its part toward providing an en-
PERTAINING program and it is up to the
people having live stock, agricultural
products, manufactured products or
anything else worthy of exhibition to
see that the resources of Vernon county
are well represented in every depart
ment. This constitutes a splendid sort
of advertising for our county and the
benefit from which are shared bv all.
In addition to this, every resident of
the county should plan to attend the
fair one or more days. The time and
money will be wisely expended and, in
cidentally the fair will be given the
boost that it richly deserves. A fair is
fully as much of business advertise
ment as it is place for people to con
gregate for amusement and exchange
annual thought and congratulation.

THE WATCH WORD is SPEED.

'Tis the age of progression. the epoch of speed
When men show their mettle and babies their

When steam and chain lightning thought once
pretty fast
Are considered too slow for the people at last
IT'S the age of remarkable plasters and pills
Guaranteed to cure all Of humanity's ills,
With recommendations from Chinese and Choc-

And Kamchatkan nabobs relieved of the lock

The voices of men are heard from afar
Waited through space on the telephone wire.
And the voice of the living are heard after death
In the tone of the living-in the photography
breath.
Men their own funeral sermon can preach,
Or deliver posthumous political speech:
And the time will soon come when in aerial fight
Man will pass around the earth in a day and a
night
And win travel from Earth to the planet of Mars
In aerial sleeper and dining room cars.
'Tis the age of remarkable medical skin.
When they cure by the knife instead of the pill;
And though bleeding the body has become obso-
lete
The bleeding the pocket is as sure and complete.
The uptodate doctor can take out your heart
Put in a new liver. and give you a start
On another installment of vigorous life
For strife after money. or to get u new wife.
The time will soon come when wars will all cease.
And the nations of earth compelled to keen
peace
For bombs dropped from on high on army and

Madison diapatch to Milwaukee Free
Press: Although more than twelve
months distant from next years pri-
mary battle, there is occasional spe-
culation as to what may take place in
Wisconsin politics. Especially is this
true of the situation in the several con-
gressional districts of the state. 1t is
thought that at least majority of the
republican members in the state dele
cation will be renominated without
serious opposition. Recently several
Third district men, representing nearly
every county, by accident, formed
party in this city and naturally, there
followed an informal discussion as to
who was most likely to be the party
nominee in opposition to the present
democratic representative, James w.
Murphy. The opinion prevailed that
nearly every county in the district was
liable to have one or more candidates.
Among those present, however,
many were of the opinion that Senator
o. G. Munson of Vernon would, if he
could be prevailed unop IN stand for
nomination, be strong candidate, be-
cause of his long service in the senate
and faithful support of all reform
measures. In the past two campaigns
Mr.. Munson has been urged to stand
for the nomination, but he declined to
have his name considered, and no one
of the party who discussed the matter
on the occasion referred to was able to
speak for him or his attitude in the APP
preaching campaign
