A bill has passed the legislature,
making it compulsory for all deaf
and dumb children to attend school.
In addition to the state institution
at Delavan for the instructing of
these unfortunate children, various
schools throughout the state have
departments for this work. Grant
county has two such departments
in the public schools-one at Platte
vile and one at Bloomington-each
doing excellent work. The instruc-
ton IN these departments Is main
canned at state expense. Parents of
deaf children should start them TO
school, to comply with the law, and
to give them a better chance to get
along in the world.

sTEPHENsoN's VICTORY.

Isaac Stephenson has been elect
ed United States Senator to succeed
John G. Spooner. The Marinette
iumberman steps into the tOga after
a long and bitter fight for the NOM
Snation "a fight which has demon
strated that the republican party of
the state is under the complete
domination of Senator Robert III.
LaEOllette. In his election the re-
publican party pays honor to man
who in years past has stepped into
The breach, used his money and in
dUence, to secure the electoral vote
Of the state for the republican can
ii5ate. Mr. Stephenson has served
ais state in the legislature, Is dele
gate to national conventions, in con-
gress, and for years was warm
personal friend of the late Presi-
deaf Mckinley. He Is an old man
whose crowning ambition, TO be
CUlted States Senator, is now con-
sUmmated. He has been a republ
az ever since the republican party
was created. Liberal and generous
re has done much to aid in the up
building of the state OF his adop-
Eion. He knows Wisconsin from
northermost point to the Illinois
state line. He knows its rivers, its
lakes, its manufacturing needs.
While he will doubtless play the
part Of the silent member during
mis- short term IN the Senate, be
will be watchful for the best inter
ests OF the state. He is not an
orator, but constructIonist lik
the late Philetus Sawyer, and b
work will be done in committee
room and not with the blare OF
trumpets. Eight years ago he
sought the honor now conferred
upon him and was defeated. To
day he is triumphant and by his
election the republican party hss
aOnored q man who has done much
Cor his party and state.
