THE NEW CRUSADE.

In some of the states the ". C. T. U. has entered into a fnew crusade in that they pledge their mbers;
 First. To wear the white rib bon bow. That is easy, but oi great importance. Whosoever sees it, is reminded of the Burn ing issue, saloon or no saloon, and seeing it often is to keep sleopie thinking on the subject. From this on it will remind that che balance of political power here in Arkansas has been lostia o the liquor traffic and gained by the church and temperance forces. To the well informed, it tells she story of woman's work for God and Home and Native Land, and of wonderful progress. To all, it says that the wearer dares to do right, and is a member of a great society of women, honored and respected all around the world.
 Second Observe the noon-tide prayer. We all need that to con- stantly maintain the spirit of the first crusade, t he courage, devo- tion to duty and energy needed for success.
 Third. To gain one or more new members. Of all the women in Arkansas, surely a large ma- jority want the saloon banished and at least one in ten cyill .lelp to put it out by joining our ranks. Let every one decide which of her friends she will so-

Washington, July 2.-Several dis patches received through official sources and apparently corroborating press telegrams regarding the trouble at Las Vacas have been made public. They indicate that in the Las Vacas fight several days ago that nine Mexi. can soldiers and twelve bandits were killed. Captain Perez, presumably a Mexican officer, was wounded three times. After their repulses the ban dits took refuge in the mountains. and the prediction was made that they would be driven north to Texas

Candidate for assemblyman for the
First district of Marathon county, was
born in Germany, November 2, 1860;
received common school education,
learned the mqchinist's trade in early
youth and studied evenings both at
home and in night schools to gain an
education; travelled extensively in
Europe to promote his efficiency as a
machinist; came to America in 1880 and
resided for a while in Chicago, working
at his trade, and continuing his studies
in evening school to acquaint himself
with the English language; he con-
tinued working at his trade for about
five years when an accident befell him
from which he never permanently re-
covered; this compelled him to enter
business for himself; for the next six
years he was engaged in the flour, feed,
wood and coal business and later sold
real estate. In 1901 he purchased the
Marathon City brewery, of which COM
pany he is now president and manager,
and has been member of the school
board for three years; is president of
the Marathon Excelsior and Manufac-
turing Co, the State bank of Marathon,
the Marathon Lumber Co, and the
Marathon Telephone Co.; he was
elected member of Inc assembly in 1906
and made an excellent legislator.
There is every assurance that Mr..
Schmidt will be re elected this year by
a much larger vote than two years ago.

Democratic candidate for the office
of aSSemblyman for the Second dis
trict of Marathon county, is one of the
very able men of our county. He is in
the very prime of life, energetic. and
eminently qualified to ill the position.
lie was born in Waupaca county and
resided in that county on a farm until
young man. He attended the public
school near his home and at an early
age entered the high school of Waupaca
from which he was graduated in 1892.
He came to Elderon, Marathon county,
the same year where he has since made
his home. He soon came into posses
sion of one of the finest farms in the
county and besides entered extensively
into the numbering and real estate
business, until now he is numbered
with our very successful men of affairs
He is, and has been for years, one of
the most enthusiastic county fair
workers, being member of the board
of directors. He is doing as much as
any one man in bringing pure blood
stock into the county, and ne now has
fine herd of GuernSeys. The last two
years he has represented his town on
the county board. He is president of
the Eland State bank and is man very
highly respected and esteemed wher-
ever known. The people of his dis
tricS, which includes the city of Wau-
sau, may rest assured that they will be
ve:y ably and well represented in the
legislature by Mr.. Plowman.

Democratic nominee for the office of
county surveyor was born in Boston,
Mass, aud came to Wausau when
child and Wausau has been his home
ever since. His first surveying was on
railroad work and then followed a
general line of surveying, city and
county work. The people of Marathon
county have known William II Gowen,
favorably. as surveyor for the last
twenty years, one in whom all parties
10 any dispute, in regard to property
lines, have confidence, and on whom
they rely, and he never failed them
In his line, no name appears oftener in
the public records of Marathon county,
than does William ii. Governs, and no
one has a better, or more intimate
knowledge of this county or its people
With the education and training, to-
gether with the natural ability and
Judgment as surveyor, he has always
given satisfaction, and either in or out
of office, his services are always in
demand. The Office of county surveyor
is one of the most important in the
county, dealing as it does with property
lines, roads, bridges, grades and levels,
and should not be made the football of
politics, but should be filled by tried
and experienced surveyor. A vote for
William H. Gowen for surveyor, regard
less of politics, will be vote for the
right man for the office.

GOOD IN ODD SLEEVE FAD.
Useful Suggestion for Girl Who Re-
models Her Gowns.

This odd sleeve fad is fine for the
girl who remodels her gowns:
Much of the trouble in making a
gown look we'll lies in the sleeves.
Often one can change a dress which
is old in style or which one thinks not
becoming into an entirely different
style of dress by remodeling or put
ting in entirely new sleeves.
1t is not necessary in the least that
it be like the frock; it can be differ
ent, so long as it is more or less the
same color as the trimmings of the
gown.
A net, wolfe, silk or cashmere dress
can be remOdeled with a sleeve made
entirely of lace and chiffon The
foundation is cut smaller than the
usual dress sleeve at the top, and this
upper portion is covered with eight
rows of lace, about three-quarters of
an inch wide, and the rows sewed
close on top of each other, the edging
of one just covering the top edge o.
the row below it. The lower part of
the sleeve is full circular piece gath
cred to the lower edge of the top por-
ton. This circular piece is made Of
chiffon and trimmed with successive
rows of the lace The lace should be
sewed on an inch or an inch and q
half apart.

Medina.

Medina, the Holy City, which has
been rejoicing over the opening of the
Hedjaz railway, triumphed long ago
over all the rivals in various parts of
the world which bore the same name,
which means simple City" Notable
among them were the old capital of
Malta and Medina Sidonia in Spain,
which gave his title to the Armada
duke. The Arabian city was original
ly known as Yathrib, but owes its later
name, El-Medina (the city, or Medinat
Rasul Allah (the city of the apostle
of Cod to the Koran. To good
Mohammedan, as to a good Londoner
there is only one city with a big C.
The nine or ten Medinas in the United
States are namesakes, no doubt; but
the River Medina, in the Isle of
Wight, is obviously no relation. It
has been guessed that this name and
Midway simply mean mid" river.

Democracy's candidate for coroner,
was born in Mayville, Dodge county,
May 1, 1861. In early life he was grad
uated from a we'll known medical col
lege and since that time has further in
creased his knowledge of medicine and
surgery by taking courses in some of
the best medical colleges of this coun-
try and Germany. He came to this
city in 1886 and has been resident of
Wausau ever since, except for short
period when he resided in Milwaukee
He has served as coroner and city
health officer and for a number of years
conducted the Riverside hospital, which
he established This institution was
later known as St. Mary's hospital.
The office of coroner is very import
ant one. An officer can either make
much unnecessary expense or save
much to the county. He can oft times
by careful investigation pave the way
for the detection of crime and prosecu-
ton of criminals. Mr. Sauerhering has
in all his official and private acts shown
good judgment and ability, and we
know that if he is elected he will serve
the best interests of every tax payer.
