LYcEUM.

Fislse O'Hara's well-rounded figure
looms large on the Lyceum stage this
week. His rich. tenor voice was never
more mellow, nor his manners more
engaging. In fact Charles E. Blaney
has given him, in the Irish romantic
play, Dion O'Dare.'', q vehicle exact
ly suited to his talents, and with the
competent assistance Of clever Miss
Marie Quinn In the character OF Mary
Kyle. young and pretty heiress.
there Is unfolded as pretty little love
tale as was ever told behind the foot
lights.
Dion O'Dare Is the son of the Wild
ow O'Dare, q tavern keeper In tho
wicklow mountains. Dion has talent
as sculptor, but IL without reputa-
the play opens. To the tavern comes
Mary Kyle and q travelling companion
on an unusual mission. She has be-
come engaged. by proxy, to the
wealthy Capt. Morgan. near whose
estates the tavern Is located, and she
wishes to learn something OF the man
she Is to marry. To deceive him she
poses as a colleen, while her travelling
companion. Miss Croker, Is known as
the heiress and as such IL courted by
the wealthy captain.
In the meantime Dion falls In love
with the colleen" and Mary. In spite
OF herself, finds herself beginning 10
love the poor but talented Irish lad.
On the day of her departure she visits
his studio to bid farewell and to con-
fess how she has deceived him. In
his rage, Dion hurls to the floor a
plaster bust he has made Of her, break
ing 1t into a thousand pieces. Mary.
sobbing bitterly. rushes from the un-
happy scene.
In the final act Dion is seen as the
guest of honor at reception In the
viceregal palace. Dublin. He Is IA
nous now and all the world looks up
TO him. Among the guests is Mary
Kyle. She tries to avoid q meeting,
but 1t Is inevitable. Dion receives her
rather coldly, believing she Is the wife
Of Capt. Morgan, an illusion which
several little incidents during the
evening have seemingly confirmed.
Then, at last, the truth comes out
The engagement between Capt Nor
gan and Mary Kyle was broken, 1t
transpires when the captain found the
wife whom he had believed dead and
restored her TO her rightful station In
life. and Mary's heart Is still free. But
not for long. The incident OF the
studio il forgotten In mutual forgive
ness and when the curtain goes down
it's quite evident there IL going to be
another wedding. soon.
Mr.. O'Hara's support. outside OF Miss
Quinn and Lou Ripley, who plays Mrs.
O'Dare. Is not especially strong.
Scenically the piece is above criticism.
and Mr.. O'Hara's songs win merfted
approval. The engagement runs the
week.

In selecting candidate for sheriff
this year the democrats chose a man
with two years experience in running
down wrong doors.
John Sell was born in Wood county
June "a, 1869, where he lived for few
years His parents removed to this
county in 1876. settling on farm in
the town of Maine and about thirty
years ago they moved into the city,
where John has ever since resided He
attended our city schools and received
good common school education. Ever
since he was old enough he has bowed
his own row in the world and is there
fore capable of meeting most any con-
tingency. When quite young man
the people of his ward got into the
habit of electing him each year as either
alderman or supervisor and he served
his ward on the city council and county
board year after year until elected
comptroller of the city six years ago
which Office he held several years. He
later took position in the land depart
ment of the G. D. Land Co, which posi-
ton he gave up in January, 1906, to act
as undersheriff for Sheriff Frank O'Con-
nor. Mr.. Sell has always proved COM
petent in every position he has held and
the voters will make no mistake by
electing him sheriff.

Democratic candidate for register of
deeds, was born on farm in the town
of Mosinee June 30, 1865, his father
being Thos OConnor, who, during his
life time, was one of the best known
men in the county. AS boy Mr..
O'Connor assisted his father on the
farm and grew up knowing what hard
toll is, from experience he gained in
carving fertile acres out of forest land.
For seven or eight years he represented
his town, Emmett, which was set off
from the original territory of Mosinee,
as a member of the county board.
While serving on the board he acted on
several important committees, such as
the committee on equalization and the
committee on roads and bridges. He
was elected sheriff of Marathon county
in 1906 and has filled that office to the
satisfaction of everyone. He has not
only been an efficient officer, but &C
commodating, pleasant and agreeable
with everyone. He has liberal educa-
ton and if elected to the office of regis
ter of deeds will prove to be what the
voter and taxpayer wants-a careful
and painstaking official.

Europe to promote his efficiency as a
machinist came to America in 1880 and

at his trade, and continuing his studies
in evening school to acquaint himself
with the English language; he con-
tinued working at his trade for about
five years when an accident befell him
from which he never permanently re-
covered; this compelled him to enter
business for himself; for the next six
years he was engaged in the flour, feed,
wood and coal business and later sold
real estate. In 1901 he purchased the

We will gladly answer that question.
Since he was elected the first time we
have enjoyed a personal acquaintance

had an extended correspondence with
him and have read and kept track of
his record by the Daily Congressional
Record. Through these sources of in
formation we have learned that he is
unworthy our vote and continued con-
tidence, straddler who is trying to
ride both the stalwart and the half

matters of public interest to the peo-
pie. Not being able to vote for him
and support him ourselves for excel
lent reasons, we canifot recommend or
commend him to the readers of the

government orders. 81 had heard
that our men were talking Bryan"
he said, land l could not believe it.
So called on a number of my older
employees, and put the question fair
and square to them. Was it true
the men were going over to Bryan
this year? Yes, they said, the
most of them were. Why ? Well,
they wanted change, the cost of
living was high, the republicans
were too thick with the trusts and
the fnanciers and so on. We'll,
said l, 4 can understand why men
in other factories might GO over to
Bryan, but surely you can't. Don't
you know that most of our work is
on government contracts? Don't
you know that you are voting to
take the bread out of your own
mouths That's the way talked
to EN-. And what do you suppose
they answered me? They said;
ooh, you're the boss, and you're try
to control our votes, but you can't
do it. We're for Billy Bryan and
we think therell be some more
government contracts, even if he
does get into the White House.
Writing from Maryland, he says
the condition among the labor vote
is the same as in New York. He
says:
Three principal cause have con-
tributed to this change of view as
to the probabilities in this state.
l. The discovery that here, as
elsewhere in the East, the labor
vote, both union and unorganized,
shows a marked tendency to Bryan.
2. In the similar discovery that
whereas it was hitherto supposed
the negro vote would be, as usual,
almost solidly republican, con-
siderable percentage of it is now
certain to be democratic.
3. In the uncertain attitude of
an important independent vote, at
first naturally inclined against
Bryan and toward Taft, but now
doubtful because of dislike of the
activity of President Roosevelt in
the campaign and Judge Taft's oft
repeated declaration that if elected
he would carry out the Roosevelt
policies.
From Ohio where Mr.. Wellmap is
now looking over the field, he writes
that the railroad vote is strongly
for Bryan. His estimate, from the
opinion of the head officers is that
about rs per cent. of these men are
for Bryan.

elected to the county board and has
held office continuously since. While
on the county board he has served on

democratic candidate for county clerk,
was born. in the town of Hartford,
Washington county of German paren-
tage. He attended the public schools
of his native county and received q
good common school education. In
1894 he removed with his parents to
toe town of Mcmillan, this county,
settling on q farm. Farm work has
been his occupation ever since he
started out to blaze his own path in
this world and that he has succeeded
in this occupation is attested to by those
who know his circumstances. He ac-
quired property of his own in 1890 and
has built up fine farm of 100 acres,
through diligent toll. That his efors
in this world are appreciated by his
fellow townsmen is shown by the fact
that be has been honored by several
town offices. He was elected to the
office of justice of the peace in 1898 and
held Office until last spring. He was
