If DR.. Robinson, who has been away
from this city for nearly twenty years,
has the welfare Of its people enough
at heart to donate a ten Thousand
dollar park to the city, why cannot
some of the mOnied men of the city,
who have made their wealth among
its people go and do likewise We
think we could name ten or more men
of this city, who have lived here long
and grown wealthy in great measure,
by virtue of the good will of our people,
any one of whom is as well able to give
a public park to the city, as is Dr.
Robinson.
Ten more good parks would not be
too many. These parks need not all
be as large as the Byron Robinson
Park. Five and ten acre parks scat
tered over the city, would be quite
Acceptable, and great source of fut-
ure good to its people.
Who will be next? Don't be BASH
full gentlemen, come to the front.

McGovern as the majority of the
assembly and senatorial districts have
pluralities against Mr.. Stephenson.
As far as the vote is reported in the
Thursday morning papers it shows 81
assembly districts for Stephenson, 25
for McGovern, Is for Cook and for
Hatton, so Stephenson has 81 for him
to 49 against him. Another factor in
the case is that some of the assembly
districts will 60 democratic and there

J. T. SCHUMACHER RETIRES
FROM GROCERY BUSINESS

Monday morning deal was closed
between ]. I. Schumacher manager and
proprietor of the Schumacher Depart
ment store and the firms of Johnson
& Hill Co., Geo. Rowland and Sons,
and Henry Gaulke, by which the
former disposed of his entire stock of
groceries to the above firms and will
retire from that part of the business.
Mr.. Schumacher, who is one of our
leading and most enterprsing business
men, has found it necessary to make
this change because of the rapid
growth of his dry goods business,
necessitating more room in which
to properly conduct the same. In
order to carry a larger assortment and
an up-to-date line of dry goods to meet
the demands of his fast growing pat
ronage, it was found necessary to
either dispose of the shoe business
or the grocery business for more
room, After careful and due con-
sideration he decided to dispose of
his grocery department, and retain
bis shoe department, as the latter
would he more ia keeping with an
exclusive dry goods store.
1t is MIR. Schumacher's intention to
run first class dry goods store, one
that win be credit to fast growing
community like this, and one that our
people may well feel proud of. While
we are sorry not to be able to pur-
chase our groceries Of Mr.. Schu-
macher, as he at all times conducted
one Of the neateSt, cleanest and most
sanitary grocery stores in the city,
we nevertheless wish him the hest of
success in bis new venture.

Progressive Democracy and to better
government in Wisconsin.

Progressive Democracy and to better
government in Wisconsin.
Such a fearful example of the use
and power of money in electioneering
was needed to show the people what
great menace the practice is to popu-
lar government. Uncle Ike's vote is
a machine-madey vote and the machine
was fabricated with money. Never
before in the history of Wisconsin has
man spent anything like SO much
money to win seat in the United
States senate. 1t has indeed been a
golden shower. 1t is appalling. Pure
elections are impossible under these
conditions. Free government is out
of the question. Wisconsin goes into
the class of states where the road to
the United States senate is open only
to millionaires, if millionaire wishes
the Office.
But Wisconsin will not stay long in
such company. 1t is not in her. She
sees great light and her duty is
plain. She must demonetize politics.
The corrupt practices act, now a
thing of form, must be made strong
and effective. 1t must provide that
elections shall not be bought. 1t
prohibits the use of money in elections
by candidates or their friends. 1t
must provide not only imprisonment,
but forfeiture of Office, for infraction
of law. 1t is forfeiture of Office that
is likely to be the strongest bar to the
use of money in campaigns. A man
who spends huge sum in procuring
public office may not fear fine, may
hope to escape imprisonment. but loss
of Office means loss of his investment
as we'll That is different matter.
IL strikes home.
The vote which Mr.. Stephenson has
received does net entitle him to
seat in United States senate His
vote does not represent Wisconsin in
any way. 1t could be farther from
representing Wisconsin's ideals and
sentiments. Even in numbers it
represents mere minority of the
votes cast at the Republican primary,
if all those who voted for him were
Republicans. We are not sure that
he did not receive fewer Republican
votes than any other Of the candi-
dates. -Milwaukee Journal.

The question that arises now is
whether the members of the legiSla-
ture are to vote Oh the Senator accord
ing to the expression of the complete
vote of the state or that of their dis
trict. If the latter is the case, and
we believe it should be, Mr.. Stephen
son, is still far from being over the
rocks. Take Waupaca county as an
example. If the vote is considered
Mr.. Hatton would be first choice for
our assemblymen and state senators
to consider, Mr.. Cook second, Mr.. Nc
Govern third and Mr.. Stephenson a
poor fourth. Taken in the same way
through the state and the choice
would not fall on Mr.. Stephenson but
would bring in either Mr.. Cook or

it home later fitting it up with griddles
and other Appliances which were lost.

the stove from the sand. On the way
from the fishing shanty Saturday Ash
