MANY CASES FOR
CIRCUIT COURT
Many Interesting Criminal Cases to
be Tried Next Week.-Court
Convenes Tuesday

The term of circuit court opening
here Tuesday, Sept. 2, promises to be a
long and interesting one. There are
eight criminal cases on the docket.
The State of Wisconsin VS.. j. J.
HaasI, is where the defendant is charged
with incendiraism. 1t is claimed that
he fired saloon building owned by him
in Bruce.
The State Of Wisconsin VS.. John
Gremnes. The defendant in this action
is charged with obtaining goods of a
storekeeper in Ladysmith on false pre-
pretenses. It has been carried over from
the last term, as the accused had no
attorney.
The State VS.. John P. Craney. 1t is
thought the true name of defendant is
j. T. Troell. He is charged with steal
ing a trunk from the platform of the
500 depot at Bruce, and was arrested
at Weyerhauser with clothing on taken
from the trunk.
The State of Wisconsin VS.. Angus
Mcdonnell. In this action the accused
is charged with being accessory to the
fact that some one stole money from a
lumberjack.
The State of Wisconsin VS.. Fl. r.
Karstens. The defendant in this action
is charged with assault on Cameron
Drake.
The State of Wisconsin VS.. William
Francklin and Ed. Buerman promises to
be an interesting one. The defendants
are charged with having broken into
the 500 depot in this city. 1t is said
Francklin intends to conduct his own
case. There are a large number of
witnesses summoned to appear and it
will be a costly item in the court ex-
penses. There is no qustion that Franck-
lin is man of no mean ability and the
wonder is how he comes to be follow
ing the life he apparently leads.
The State of Wisconsin VS.. Mettie
Noll. The defendant is charged with
running a house of i'll fame, and is an
appeal from justice court,
The State of Wisconsin and City of
Ladysmith VS.. Otto Schrader. The ac-
cused is charged with selling liquor to
minors. This is an appeal from justice
court, in which a fine of $50 was levied.
The defendants S attorneys appealed on
the ground that the ordinances of the
city are invalid, the charter not having
been complied with in recording them
in the ordinance book. If the conten-
tion Of the defendant is maintained, all
the principal ordinances Of the city will
have to be re-enacted and published
again.
There are nine cases set on the jury
civil docket, principally money de-
mands.
Under head Court Facts" there
are "a cases, nine of them being action
for divorces.
There is a possibility some of the
cases will be continued over the term.
In any event, it is possible it will take
two weeks to get through, as the Grim
inal cases take a good deal Of time,
while it is likely there will be number
of witnesses in the nine jury civil cases.

SHALL LIQUOR
TRUST CONTROL7
Brewers Would Gain Control OF Next
Legisiature.-Lea Citizens
indorse Candidates


lndorse Candidates
To the voters of Rusk and Chippewa
Counties:
The recent organization of Liquor
Dealers Protective Association OF
Wisconsin, for the avOwed purpose
as expressed in their bylaws OF Sc
curing control OF the Legislature and
executive branches OF our state gov
ernment should be a warning to
good citizens every where to be on
their guard lest this powerful cor
poration wrest from the people the
reins OF government.
We quote from page IA OF the
Liquor Dealers Association as fol-
lows:
''lt shall be the duty Of Local AS
sociations to protect and uphold the
personal and civil liberty of its mem
bers; to secure to them. so long as
they conduct their business In an
orderly and proper manner, the
rights and privileges which the law
accords to all other classes of busi-
ness; to oppose all malicious at
tempts and to prevent the passage
of unjust ald sO-called temperance
laws and ordinances; to use all hon
Orable means to. have only such men
elected to public office irrespective
of politics) as are favorable to the
aims of this Association"
The activity of members OF the
local Liquor Dealers Association in
this county in the support OF certain
candidates for office should Of itself
be sufficient proof OF their intent tiOns,
but as further evidence we have re-
liable information that all candi-
dates for legislative office have re-
celved a letter from the German
American Alliance" an auxiliary OF
the Liquor Dealers Association, In
Milwaukee sounding" them as to
their position, Furthermore. 1t is
known that the agents OF various
breweries have received instructions
from brewers to support certain can
tlidates for the legislatures.
In view of this manifest proposed
domination by the Liquor Dealers,
and the "straddling" of the Issue by
the Liquor Dealers candidates when
questioned by the citizens who have
right to know their position, we
consider 1t our duty In the interests
of good government and for the pro
lection OF the fair name OF our state
that we openly endorse the follow
ing candidates, whom we have sat
isfied ourselves stand with the peo
pie and against such vicious move
ment on the part OF this great col
poratiOn in this election:
For State Senator, oath Dist. John
w. Thomas of the town OF AnsOn
Chippewa county.
For Member of Assembly Second
District Chippewa county (lncludlne
Rusk county, Joel f. Ling OF Samp
son, Chippewa county.
For District Attorney OF RusR
county, George w. Carow OF Lady
smith.
When such an issue as this has
been forced upon us by a coInbina
tion SO strong and powerful as that
organization, we deem 1t the solemn
duty of every good citizen to take q
stand for the right In the matter and
| to use his utmost endeavOrs to de
feat the aim OF the organization In
so far as 1t pertains to governmental
affairs, so as to retain the reins O
government, unsullied, In the hands
of the people.

AS no one appears to know just when
the first train from Duluth to Chicago
will put in an appearance. The News
Budget is unable to state when through
service will commence. However, the
company is at work with large
force in Superior and near by. A crew
is at work on round houses and yards
and sinking an artesian well, so it is
thought in few weeks citizens of
Ladysmith will be able to get on train
and go through without transfer.

INSIGNIA OF RANK
MARKS THAT TELL THE VARIOUS
GRADES IN NAVY.
Some Devices Designed BY Martha
Washington and Other Colonial
psmes--HIstory Written
Into Gold Braid.

Boston.--There are very few men
who can distinguish an admiral from
n lieutenant by the uniforms they
wear. There Is probably not a single
naval demonstration where nine Off
GERS out of ten are not confounded by
the majority of the spectators.
The same principles underlie the
navy insignia as are present in those
Of the army. There is a picturesque
story Of the way these came into be
ing The choosing of the marks OF
rank in the army and navy, the story
runs, was left after the revolution to
some of the leading ladies of the conn
try. II legend is to be believed Mar
tha Washington is responsible for
some of the devices. The whole world
was drawn upon by the resourceful
colonial danes for suggestions. The
heavenly bodies were appropriately
called upon to contribute devices for
the highest ranks. From them came
the stars, most coveted by men in the
army and navy. t @
Descending to earth the eagle was
availed Of as most appropriate after
the stars, because of its courage and
lofty flight. For lesser ranks all most
honorable and awful notwithstanding,
