My Dear Sir:-I have your letter of
the 25th and am indeed glad to know
that affairs have taken the turn indi-
Gated by you in Anderson county. The
question now to be settled is one of
such prime Importance that no man
can be neutral in respect to it. The
honor of the state of Texas is involved,
the greatest question of public policy
that could be considered by any peo-
pie is today before the people of Tex
as, in the person of Joe Bailey. | am
amazed at the affrontery of the man
in demanding of the people of Texas
that they should confer upon him the
additional office of delegate at large
one of the most important under ex-
listing political conditions that could
arise, an office of great honor and
trust, although devoid of profit. l do
not see how the friends of simple and
honest government can trust the man.
do not see how the admirers of Mr.
Bryan can afford to put him on guard

Modern Mining in Cornwall.

E. w. Moore in letter from Lon
don, England writes of modern min
ing methods in Cornwall. The in
formation which be gives will be espec-
tally interesting to people hero, where
Mr.. Moore is well known. Here is
what he writes:
st is noticeable how conditions IN
the United States are reflected in Eng
land and on the continent. Many
of the industries in England feel the
lessened demand, and some to such
an extent that operations have sus-
pended temporarily in some lines.
This, however, is not true IN MIN
ing. There never was such time
OF agreeable activities. [ have Wis
tied over one hundred coal, zinc and
tin mines and have learned much as to
new methods and Improvements.
After trying several new style electric
and steam pumps, the Cornish miners,
have in many cases, gone back to the
old improved Cornish lift pump.
Much of the work here is done on
contract basis, a method L think would
pay if worked out in the Wisconsin
district. Both men and operator
would be benefited, think. The cleo
trio air drill is taking over here. The
Englishmer seem to be particularly
attracted to it. as they utilize electric
ity in connection with mining TO a
greater extent than we do at home.
Nearly all the recent installments OF
machinery are electrically driven"

A Hearty Meal for Four Cents.

Few people are so fortunate as to
be Indifferent to the cost OF the neces-
saries of life. Mr.. George KEENAN,
has discovered an institution which he
declares has solved, or come near to
solving, the difficult problem of fur
nishing the prime requisites of human
existenc, namely, shelter and TODD, at
a per capita cost of twenty three cents
day.
In the March McClure's Mr..
KEENAN, writes:
"Of all the attempts that have re-
Gently been made to lessen the cost OF
living, by building model tenements,
eliminating middlemen, buying provi-
sious in large quantities, and saving
unnecessary waste, the most interest
ing, and perhaps the most successful,
is that of the Valparaiso University
at institution, and fewer still know
definitely anything about it and Its
effort to furnish higher education at
rates within the means Of the average
American family"
This is made possible chiefly by ex-
traordinary management of the COM
missary MIR. KEENAN, gives tables
showing exactly how it is all done.
He says:
The first meal that 1 took in the
| VALPARAISO University was four cent
breakfast, served at 6 a. m. in Herr,
tage Hall. 1t consisted of delicious
apple sauce, bread and butter. rolled
oats, baked potatoes, coffee with milk
and sugar, and big red apples Of the
highest market grade. Everything
was unlimited in quantity, and | begar
/ the day with as good and hearty q
meal as any student need desire"

Sulphur and Epidemic Diseases.

George T. Angel of Boston gives
testimony in regard to sulphur as
preventative of epidemic diseases.
In a. recent article he says:
Grip has been widely prevailing IN
the United States. Many years ago,
when it was widely prevailing in Bos-
ton. we sent an officer to large match
factory, who found that not single
person of all employed there had been
troubled by the grip, the reason being
that they we're at work on sulphur
We have several times published
articles on this subject, showing that
in sulphur mines everybody escaped
the malaria which was prevailing all
about them, that in California men
engaged in bleaching with rhinestone
fumes escaped epidemics.
Casey Young, member Of Congress
from Memphis, Tennessee, assured US
many years ago at Washington that
when the yellow fever was raging
in that city he advised some dozen
or more gentlemen in his offices to
wear powdered sulphur in their shoes,
and all who took his advice escaped
the fever.
1t is we'll known that the old prac-
tice of taking sulphur and molasses
in the spring would so penetrate the
body as to blacken the silver coins
in the pockets of the persons taking it.
We wish that some of our eminent
physicians would carefully investigate
the advisability of wearing powdered
sulphur about the BODY in times OF
epidemic diseases.
1t is reasonable to suppose that the
manufacture in Mineral Point OF
sulphuric acid has proven a preventa-
tive of epidemic diseases here, as the
community has been for many years
free from epidemics of any kind. 1t is
only when the escape of the fumes is
great that vegetation is blighted.

For BRYAN 1908

AS the money question is no longer
a national issue, very many who
opposed W. J. Bryan's election to
the presidency in 1896 are favoring
his nomination in 1908. The action
Of the democratic state convention
held in Milwaukee two weeks ago
proves this to be true. That cOnven-
ton was truly representative of the
Democracy of Wisconsin, and the
unanimous endorsement given to Mr..
Bryan's candidacy shows that he will
have the united support of reunited
party. M. E. Ingalls, of Cincinnati,
president of the big Four" railway,
in a recent interview, said that he
believes that Mr.. Bryan will be nom
mated by the Democrats, and that he
has a good chance of election. 1t will
be remembered that Mr.. Ingalls, was
an able and ardent advocate of the
gold standard and opposed Mr..
Bryan on account of the latter's free
silver views.
Here is what MIR. Ingalls, now says:
"There are few Democrats who
voted for Bryan in 1896 that will not
vote for him this year, and in that
election, it will be remembered, 10, 900
votes would have turned the election
either way. This year he will get the
support of many Democrats who Op-
posed him in 1897 because of his free
silver doctrines. The radical element
of the party is sure to vote for him
to a man. This is a radical age.
When Gov. Pingree of Michigan was
alive he was looked upon as an ultra
radical, yet if he lived to-day he
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1908-02-27

would be regarded almost as a con-
sentative. 1 did not support Bryan
in 1896 because he ran on free silver
platform, but l voted for him in 1900,
and If he is nominated this year
shall again support him"
MIR. ingalls, was asked how, as a
railroad man, he could consistently
support Bryan, in view OF Mr..
Bryan's declared advocacy of gov
eminent ownership of railroads? To
this inquiry Mr.. Ingalls, replied:
sob, Mr.. Bryan has backed down
on that. If he was elected president
Bryan would be a much more sober
man than he appears to be at this
time. The White house will make
almost any man conservative. Roose-
welt is the only man in history who
has not been sobered by the great
Office he occupies. !"

TREMEND Gus ROWTH OF
MILW AUKEE CONCERN.
Mayer Boot and Shoe Company of
Milwaukee. with Pacific Coast
Branch at Seattle. One of
The Largest Concerns in


The Largest Concerns in
Country.
Milwaukee can be proud to be the
home of the Meyer Boot and Shoe
company. Mayer shoes have won
their reputation on quality. The
Mayer Boot and Shoe Company has
persistently refused to lower quality
to enable it to sell shoes at a lower
price, and by maintaining this honest
and superior quality and keeping In
the front ranks in style, it has gradu-
ally won the confidence of thousands
of shoe wearers who purchase Mayer
made shoes year after year-who look
at the Mayer trademark as positive
evidence of style, comfort, and good
wearing quality.
This quality policy so consistently
pursued has resulted in healthful and
rapid growth. In the twenty five
years since the Mayer Shoe Company
began operations it has outgrown six
factories. And in the last six months,
in Milwaukee has been building, the
volume of business has so greatly
increased that even with this new
annex the itput lags far behind the
demand.
Including the new Seattle factory,
which has been completed, the total
capacity of the Mayer Boot and
Shoe Company exceeds 5000 pairs a
day. This remarkable output, togeth-
er with the inability of the Mayer
Company to build factories fast
enough to keep pace with the demand,
is most convincing evidence CT the
high quality of Mayer footwear.
In the first place the Mayer shoes
are sensible. While good style is an
important factor, comfort is always
greater consideration; while con-
spicious extremes are avoided, refined
dressiness is always secured. The
exceptional durability and splendid
wearing quality of Mayer shoes are
due to the use of only the best leather
and the employment of only the most
experienced and skillful workmen.
From the wide range of style you are
certain to find one which pleases.
The best known brands are the
"Honorbilt' fine shoes for men; the
Leading Lady, fine shoes; the
martha Washington" Comfort
Shoes; Especial Merit" school shoes,
and the "Yerma" cushion shoes. Ii
you want dress shoe, work shoe,
or shoe dressy enough for rough
usage, it is our belief that you can't
do better than to ask your dealer to
supply you with one of the Mayer
brands.

OP POS ED TO A WIDE
OPEN TOW

The Milwaukee Journal is vigorous
ly protesting against the talk OF
making that city wide open, and in SO
doing is performing real service for
Wisconsin's metropolis. The Journal
calls attention to the fact that al
though the Milwaukee Model License
league was organized for the avowed
purpose of abolishing dives and
vicious, low saloons, it is putting
forth no efforts so to do. The Jour
nal says:
1.-THE Model License league cannot
remain passive if it is TO accomplish
the things set forth in its platform.
1t cannot be content with a condem-
nation of the "wide open town"
policy. 1t must fight that policy
actively and aggressively. Luke
warmness, indifference, are dan
gerous."
The Journal holds, and rightly,
that the talk about blue laws is de-
signed to obscure the real issue.
Here are The Journals words:
"There is no demand for blue laws
in Milwaukee. There is no demand
for any curtailment of real personal
liberty"
The Journal rightly discerns the
signs of the times. If the people can
not have stricter regulation OF the
liquor traffic, they will try prohibi-
ton. Those who cant about person
al liberty, and at the same time
advocate a "wide open town" policy
which infringes on the rights and
liberties of others, are not the best
citizens. They are not the men who
give character and standing to COM
munity; and community as well as an
individual must have character. 1t
must seek to attain unto civic right
eOusness by the observance of law and
and the carrying out Of principles and
purposes which make for the well be-
ing OF the people In general. Leaving
out of consideration the moral aspect
of the question, Milwaukee cannot
afford to allow itself to become wide
open city. 1t is the metropolis of a
a great, progressive state. It's mer-
chants and manufacturers are reach
ing out for trade. and demanding
increased railroad facilities that
more trade may come to them. But
we believe that it is just as important
to them that they prove their fidelity
to law and order by strenuously
working to overcome the evils con-
nected with the liquor traffic, which
bring reproach not only to Milwau-
kee but to every city where these
evils arc unrestrained.
