STATE OF WISCONSIN, J
County of Rusk.

A. N. Andersen being duly sworn,
saws that he entered the race for dis
trict attorney because he was a logical
candidate for the office; that he was
not asked to run by any one, and that
he has not been approached by, nor
made any promises to any faction or
interests, and that he is running strictly
on his own merits.
A. N. ADERsEN.
Subscribed and sworn to before me
this 10th day of September, 1908.
r. J. SANDS,
Notary Public.
The foregoing affidavit Of Mr.. A. N.
Andersen, aspirant to the Office of dis
trict attorney, published last week in
the Rusk County Journal, appeared to
us to be a demand made upon Ander-
sen on the 18th by Rev. Thomas Barker
of this city and, desiring to know the
complete story, we sought an interview
with Mr.. Barker.
1t appears that because of report
which came to Mr.. Barker that Mr..
Andersen had refused to further sup
port and worship in the Congregational
church of L d y m i h, Mr.. Barker
sought an interview and in reply to
the question why Mr.. Andersen refused
to further support and worship in the
Congregational church, Mr.. Andersen
replied: 81 will not worship in a church
or have anything to do with one where
Mr.. Thomas is taking such an active
part" When counselled to not let per-
sonal prejudice interfere with his re-
ligious obligations Mr.. A d r S e n
asserted, THAT Congregational church
is prostituted for political purposes,
and when asked for the reason for his
assertion he answered, '"That church is
not backing me politically
It was then explained to Mr.. Ander-
sen that there were great moral issues
before the people of Ladysmith and
Rusk county and that citizens through
out the county were pressing for a
square deal, and that the churches had
taken pronounced stand on these is
sues, and that as Mr.. Andersen had
failed to line up with the best senti-
ment on these issues he might not find
a ready welcome in other churches. To
this Mr.. Andersen replied, 81 can stay
away from all the churches -
Mr.. Barker then told Mr.. Andersen
that so far as he knew there was no or
oa0izat tion or apv Darticular DarSon ra-
sponsible for the attitude of the people
toward Mr.. Andersen in this campaign
except the element known as "the
gang" an element that had come out
openly for brothels, common gambling
houses and saloon lawlessness, and even
championed their interests; and it was
this element that had been jeopardizing
Mr. Andersen's political interests and
that he was responsible for allowing
that element to push his candidacy.
Mr.. Andersen then asserted that some
one had represented him as a saloon
man, and in reply Mr.. Barker inquired
what other inference could be drawn
when a saloon man was pushing his
campaign?
The following affidavit which Mr..
Barker requests US to print explains
the balance of the conversation be
tween the parties.

New Steam Laundry.

The Ladysmith Shirt Factory In
tends to put in complete steam
laundry in connection with their
shirt business. This is something
the citizens of Ladysmith have been
waiting for and it will prove prof
liable investment. A. Roesler, who
is at the head of this enterprise, has
constructed a tirst-class building for
the factory. He has made his pre-
viOus business ventures profitable
and there is no doubt he will also
succeed in this.
There is no question but what
Ladysmith is destined to be the
great distributing point between the
Twin Cities and Rhinelander and
any factory starting here will in the
near future be sure to have large
local demand, while the open market
is just as good as for Others.

Wild Animals Returning.

The animals that prey are growing
in such numbers in the northern part
Of the state OF Minnesota, particularly
in those natural game preserves, the
national and state parks, that they
threaten the continued existence OF
animals Of the hunt. And from the
southern part Of the state. even from
such long settled regions as that about
the big bend Of the Minnesota. in the
neighbOrhood OF MankatO. St Peter
and New Ulm, the three historic
towns, the wolf from being a well
nigh extinct animal has come into it's
own again and become a menace. Sud-
denly at the semicentennlal moment
the state appears to be supporting as
many fish, flesh and fowl as 1t did in
territorial days, says the st. Paul Dis
patch. The state will have to assume
anew the determination OF wild ami
mails, and bounties offered will be even
more In demand. There is danger
both to inhabitants and to game in
these depredations. Particularly should
there be concern for the scattered
jewellers in the north OF the state. who
are anticipating the coming OF n denser
population. holding down lone claims
and the like.

WOMEN AS RURAL CARRIERS.
They chssrfuIIy Accept Hardships In
Volved In Distribution of Mail.

They ChssrfuIly Accept Hardships In
VoIVsd In Distribution Of Mail.
Positions as rural carriers are not
supposed to be attractive to women,
and the postofice department does not
encourage their employment as such,
but an increasing number Of women
are invading the rural delivery field,
sometimes as regular carriers. but more
frequently as substitutes.
Assistant Postmaster General De
graw is authority for the statement
that when women obtain places as
rural carriers they invariably accept
cheerfully the hardships that accom-
pany the work and vie with the male
carriers In enthusiasm over their work.
An example Of this enthusiasm Is
shown In a report received at the post
office department In Washington Of the
case Of Miss Lenna Sennott, who is the
substitute carrier on a twenty-eight
mile route In one Of the New England
states. Miss Sennott has held the posi-.
ton for three years, and, although the
route is a long one and is thickly
wooded In some sections, Miss Sennott
says she has no fear In driving over it
alone, and she carries no weapon OF
defense. When asked what induced
her to enter the service Miss Sennott
said that one day about three years
ago the regular carrier told her he was
unable to find a substitute and jokingly
asked her II she would like the posi-
ton.
81 told him / would like to be his as
sistant or substitute" said Miss SEN
mott. provided he had horses that
had some life. He agreed he had good
horses. so / was sworn in as his substi-
tute. The horses are all right. They
prick up their eGSs and step In good
shape when they meet an electric car
or an automobile. These are the kind
like to drive.
81 am met with a smile from all the
patrons OF the route. Even the dogs
won't bark at me. Yes, there are some
places pretty thickly wooded. but that
doesn't worry Lenna Sennott any. 1
never carry a gun or any weapon save
the ones that were born with me.
don't say I am a boxer, but can hold

The English rules distinctly stated
that no assistance Of any kind could
