on the part of the clerk and
treasurer in keeping books. In fact,
the clerk had nothing but stubs and the
orders were only charged to two or
three accounts, while there are about
eighteen accounts in the treasurer's Of
flee, which makes it hard matter for
the finance committee of the council
to make an intelligent investigation.

ATTRACTIVE LECTURE COURSE
Library Board Selects Choice As
sortment OF Attractions

1t is with pleasure that the library
board is able to announce the en-
gagement of the following superb list
of attractions to appear during the
ensuing lecture season in this city.
The course will be opened by the
celebrated Parland Newhall Com
pany, which consists of four celebrat-
ed musicians. They will entertain us
with vocal and instrumental music.
The bell ringing feature of this en-
tertainment is simply wonderful.
The second number will be filled
by DR.. L. G. Herbert, man of re-
markable power. He has delivered
many lectures throughout the country
and proves himself strong in humor,
pathos, depth of thought, and i'm
pressive delivery.
Next comes the Skovgaard Concert
Company. Skovgaard, the Danish vio-
lin Virtuoso, assisted by Miss Grin
nell, a soloist of no mean ability,
and Miss McClung, the accompanist.
should prove very attractive num-
Der.
The fourth entertainment will be
lecture by "The Taffy Man." H. w.
Sears. He is a great favorite in Cha
tauqua circles and proves himself an
entertaining and instructive humor-
ist.
The course will be closed with the
Eva Bartlett Macy Company. Miss
Macy is a reader and banjoist of ex-
ceptional ability. She will be assist
ed by a mezzo soprano soloist flute
soloist and violinist. This attrac-
ton has appeared in neighboring cit
les and always proved excellent.
Tickets may be purchased from
members of the Library Board, but
should one of them fail to to call up
on you, be sure to call upon one of
them so you will not miss these at
fractions. c. J. Mccormick,
Pres. Library Board.

Editor Ladysmith News-Budget,
Ladysmith, Wis.
Dear Sir:-I am informed that in one
of your recent issues you state that Mr..
Andersen would not have allowed me to
go before the expiration of my contract
period which was the first part of July.
And for my activity in politics in Lady
smith. This is an entirely wrong ver-
sion of the matter. My personal reasons
for leaving have never been stated to
anyone as yet. You all know only too
we'll that the so called gang" loved
me like a snake and would not be sur
prised if they would have told Mr..
Andersen what is reported, had it been
necessary, but it was not. Before the
spring election had made arrange
ments to come back to Portage, but
feeling that it would not be busines ess
policy | told not to exceed three persons
in Ladysmith at that time and one of
them was Mr.. Andersen. At that time
/ planned to come here June l, and so
stated. Later / decided to enter the
race for District Attorneyfn this county
and decided that to do so | must go May
1st. Neither at that time nor any other
did Mr.. Andersen object to my going
when and where pleased. i.
| write this with no desire to enter
the local fight on either side but ask you
to publish it out of fairness to Mr. An
dersen because these are the true facts
as know them. Sincerely,
DAVID BOGUE.

You cannot afford to pay cent less
for your clothing than we charge you.
We believe that to be sound, sensible
fact. To deal with prices less than
twenty dollars for Moe-to-measure suits
is to get among uncertainties. Even a
little lower prices means that there's
something that isn't as it should be,
something sighted. We set our prices
where they cannot be lessened and we
can prove it. Better give us chance
to prove it.

FACT OR FICTION.

81 did not say that | thought
that the Congregational church
and it's pastor were prostituted
for political purposes. "A. N.
Andersen's sworn affidavit, pub
lished Oct. 3, 1908.
''He quotes me as saying that
churches are prostituted for po-
litical purposes, which he knows
is untrue, for that was said only
about one pastor and immediate
friends in one church. "A. N.
Andersen in Rusk County Jour
nal, Oct. 10, 1908.
Mr.. Andersen should labal his
literary productions so that the
public will know which to believe
and which to take as joke.

In justice to Mr.. Andersen we pub
lish the foregoing letter, although it
establishes the writer more fxedly in
Mr.. Andersen's Ananias club. The
News s-Budget would o t knowingly
misrepresent any candidate, no matter
how much we opposed his election.
Mr.. Bogue himself, however, before
leaving Ladysmith conveyed some of
the information concerning his desire
to leave and Mr.. Andersen's objection.
The matter of Mr. Andersen's being
threatened with losing the city attorn-
eyship if Bogue remained was shouted
upon the street by members of the
gang" about the time of the city cleo
ton.
