Fred Alvin a Grandfather.
Where the four roads meet at De-


the News man and wife
met Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
Alvin of the town of Prairie du
Sac. They were hurrYing to Westfield
to greet their grandson who had just ar
rived at the home OF Mr.. and Mrs. Udo
Braun. Mr.. and Mrs. Alvin have a
grandchild in Colorado whom they
have never seen and their trip to West
field was their first experience in
visiting grandchildren.
Mr. Alvin is interested in archaeology
and reports that he has come into
possession of new cache of Is pieces,
which was fonnd by Fred Cans on
neighboring farm. The stone pieces
had been buried by some Indian long
ago and have eonly now been discovered.
u~af4t Denzer Ulrich Clement is build
ing a new blacksmith shop. Ed. Zick
has the contract.
A pause was made at
the natural bridge, a glimpse
was taken of Leland and Il
road was followed on down the Honey
Greek valley to Witwen and Black
Hawk. The highway led by the Bon
ham homestead and over the big hill.
The elevation is correctly named and
puts to sleep the hills on the East and
West Sauk roads south of Baraboo.
The route is through deep woods and
brings one into the beautiful and fer
tile Wilson Greek valley. Here we took
a look at the Indian relics collected by
]. HI. HoXie and visited at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. r. G. Robson. Mr..
at the Wilson Creek postoffice and an
early settler there. But few of the
pioneers are left in the valley. On
high ridge of land back of the home
of Mr.. Robson IS a group of Indian
mounds. They are all circular in form
and may be seen for long distance.
From the top of the bluff, which is
lmost as high as the elevations at
Dew rs lake, one can see far, far away,
up and down the Wisconsin river as 1t
flows between the islands and sand
bars on it's sleepy way to the sea.
At the foot of the bluff were mum
Der of effigy mounds which have long
since disappeared under the plow.
John Wilson was a Scotchman and
the first settler in that section of Sauk
county. He made kegs for the Galena
shot tower across the river and carried
them over in his canoe.

Have Never Seen Baraboo.

Strange to say there are many per-
sons around Plain, White Mound,
Loreto, Sandusky, Lime Ridge and
other points in the western part of the
county who have never been in Bara-
boo. For some of them to come means
drive of almost a hundred miles to
make the round trip or else go by the
way of Madison. It seems strange
that person should reside in Sauk
county for half century or more and
not see the capital of the county, yet
this is true. There is one pleasant
feature about the matter and that
is that all have a most favorable
impression of the city and the good
roads here. Those from Bear Greek,
Franklin and other towns who have
come to Baraboo have taken home
good messages about the Gem City.
All like the appearance of the public
buildings very much and number
spoke of having been interested in the
collection OF the Sauk County Histori-
cal Society in the court house.

Editor Herald and News:
AS am subscriber to your paper
wish to drop few lines for the
Union Department Of Newberry coun-
ty.
To the brotherhood of the F. E. &
Gu. of Newberry county, Brethren
What do we aim to accomplish by Or
ganizing? De we mean as an organz-
ed body to meet from time to time,
at our respective locals, to be benefit
ed? If so in Gods name let each
and everyone Of US from this time
henceforth keep our business strictly
to ourselves; then soon the non-union
men will become very much interested
about our order and business and
when they fail to learn outside OF
the Union what we insiders are doing
they will place some confidence IN our
organization and come into the Un-
ion and not until then. So, brethren,
I beseech you one and all, in the name
Of the Farmers Union and in the
name Of the brotherhood, that we live
up at once for a more determined
fight for our rights, and for equal
I rights to all. Now, brethren, we all
see and know we are talking and writ
ing too much. Let each Of US exam
inc ourselves and profit thereby.
Now, brethren, we have hand to
hand fight, and we'll organized we
can accomplish our aim; unorganlzed
we can accomplish nothing.
Always be on guard. All other
classes are organized and they have
wonderful success. Why? Just be-
cause, they are organized to accom-
plish a certain thing, and are busi-
ness, when they have their meetings.
We know nothing Of them and never
will know what they do. Why! Just
because its a secret organization and
they tell not. I do honestly believe
we, too, should make ours a great
deal more strictly business than here
tofore.
Now, We call our organization a

Hon. Jno. Gary Evans.

That Hon. John u. Evans is eX-
cee dinghy we'll qualified for the
senatorship is generally conceded. H.
is among the very best Informed men
III the State on national issues and
economic problems generally, having
made a special study of the science
Of government. His natural endoW-
ments are Of high order.
Brains, knowledge Of governmental
affairs and special, technical informa-
ton, when possessed by man of fix
ity of purpose count in the senate.
Mere talk in spread eagle style pro-
vokes only derision there.
Mr.. Evans has done nothing Of late
years to keep alive the unpleasant
ness of the early '90's, but on the
contrary has behaved himself in dig
nified. manly way. Under the most
adverse and often unjust criticisms
he has not uttered word of COM
plant or vituperation. He has thus
shown himself to be man of polse.
All references now by our papers
to the days Of factionalism IS lll-tun-
ed and in bad taste to put it mildly.
It shows Mr.. Evans broadness OF
view that he does not call attention
to the position Of his opponent in
those days Of division. As mere
matter of petty politics he might do
this with great effect. He does not
ask election because Of past differ
ences. but on his own merits. He ap-
pesls to no class or faction but to the
soter judgment Of all the people. His
speeches have been thoughtful and
dignified, without the least appeal to
prejudice or ignorance.
1t is urged against him that he has
had enough. Such argument implies
that a senatorship should go to a
man who has failed to get something.
His opponent has sought Office before,
even seat in congress. So a sena-
torship by this token should be re-
fused a man who has held high office
and given to a man whom the people
have refused to give Office. Such ar
gument shows low conception Of the
position, the highest in the gift Of the
State Of South Carolina. To urge
against candidate for the presidency
of the nation that he had had enough
would be ridiculous. To say that a
man should not be elected senator
from South Carolina because he has
had enough is to a less extent also re-
diculous.
That there were three men, John
stone. Rhett and Evans. in the first
race Of marked. even Of very super
ior ability is generally conceded. By
a division Of votes the first two are no
longer in the race. It is still possible
to elect the third, and thus give South
Carolina an able and dignified sena-
tor.
