Stephenson In Race.

Hon. Isaac Stephenson of Mari
nstte, has made formal announcement
of bis candidacy before the primary
election to succeed himself as a mem
Der of the United States senate. He
evidently thinks that one good term
deserves another and having had
taste of senatorial honors, is anxious
TO keep that taste IN his mouth.
There are now four candidates in the
field and the entries fer the race no
doubt closed. The candidates are S.
A. Cook Of Neenah, W. H. Hatten of
New London, Frank A. McGovern of
Milwaukee and Isaac Stephenson of
MarInette. 1t will be free race
and may the best man win-the man
who can give the people intelligent
service and not be owned nor con-
trolled by any other man in the dis
charge of his senatorial and legisla-
tive duties--a man, not an automaron
who answers to the manipulation of
somebody else.

Castle WithdrdWS.

Bryan J. Castle OF Madison, has
retired from the field as an aspirant
for the repub lican nomination for con-
gress in this, the Second congressional
district in favor of Y. II. Russell of
Berlin, who has held the position as
pension clerk in the Office of the adju-
tant general at the state capitol for
the past eight years.
There appears to be determination
upon the part of coterie of office
holders at Madison to secure the de-
feat of Hon. John M. Nelson for
denomination and election, but it
will die "a-borning Mr. Nelson
is serving his first term and has made
a record seldom acquired by new
member. 1t can be said to his credit
that he has the courage Of his convic-
tions and net afraid to stand for the
right. even if confronted by great
odds. He's as we'll equipped mer-
tally for the position as any of his op-
ponents and with the experience of
one term will make him more valu-
able to his constituents than a new
man could possibly be and it would
be the heighth OF folly fur the repub-
leans of the district not to support
lin.

If the People Want Him.

Hon. Charles H. Weisse, member
uf Congress from the Sixth congress
sional district, wants it distinctly
Understood that he has not intimated
to living soul that he would not be
candidate to succeed himself. Dur
ing the time he has been q member of
congress, his party has been in the
minority and so he has not had 81
opportunity to emerge into the lime
light, but it can be said to his credit
that he has not made any mistakes,
judged from a party standpoint and is
exceedingly popular with both sides
of the House which has aided him in
securing many gvod things for his DIS
trict. If be desires to return for an
other term it would be good poll ey
in politics for his party to give it to
him without much of an effort upon
bis part.

Five Cows Killed.

Yesterday afternoon, as passenger
train, No. 218 on the e., M. & St.
P. road In charge of Conductor Charles
White was approaching the depot ut
Hubbleton from the west and when
nearing the depot ran into a herd of
cows, killing five of the number. The
heads of two were cut off and two
were wedged in under the locomotive
and were removed after considerable
delay and trouble and the locomotive
was quite badly smeared with the
blood of the animals. From what the
of The Leader could
learn, the cattle rushed upon the track
IN front of the oncoming train prob
ably from fear and it Was one of those
accidents against which no provisions
could be made and for which the train
hands could not be held responsible.
