Tom Armstrong Jr. is being backed
for city assessor by class of business
men who believe that in him we have
the most capable candidate for the
office. In 1903 Mr.. Armstrong was
elected assessor of the city of
Rochester, Minnesota, receiving a
greater number of votes than any
candidate on either of the two tickets;
his majority was 239. A newspaper
clipping, which Tom carefully pre-
serves, says: 1.-THE sensation of the
election was Armstrong; victory over
Bliss. The result was not so much a
reflection upon Mr.. Bliss popularity
as it was evidence that many republi-
cans were "getting even' for caucus
methods they considered reprehensible.
In every precinct Mr.. Bliss was de-
feated." Mr.. Armstrong was assessor
of Rochester for six years, or until he
moved to Ladysmith.

The suggestion of the News-Budget
that Ladysmith return to the district
system of school government has met
with favor among citizens of all
classes, and if perchance, the city
should go dry movement for such a
change will be inaugurated. By di-
vorsing the schools from politics, the
taxes paid for education will not be
used for other purposes, the board of
education will cease to be a figure
head under the control of the city coun-
Gil, and our school government will not
be used to further the political ends of
any faction which may happen to gain
control of city affairs. The threat that
our schools would be crippled by the
adoption of any public policy by the
city could not then be made.

Congressman Lenroot made the
pledge during the campaign that he
would not vote for Cannon for speaker
of the House, if he had to stand alone.
He kept that pledge, although he did
not have to stand quite alone eleven
other congressman stood with him.
Cannon was reelected in spite of them.
They should be proud of the snubs they
have received in consequence. Next
year there will be more recruits to the
ranks of the insurgents. -

paid an Office as that of county judge.
Is it philanthropy? Is McGill so
anxious to serve the public that he is
willing to sacrifice his valuable time for
the small compensation paid? In view
of the fact that he never before en-
gagged in public service without exact
ing good compensation, we can hardly
conclude that his present candidacy is
based on motives of public benefaction.
AS matter of fact has McGill
shown such overpowering ability? We
believe the only case in which McGill
opposed Maloney in an action was that
of A. G.. Beebe VS.. the 500 Railway.
In that case Maloney represented
Beebe and McGill represented the
corporation. Beebe won in circuit
court, and the railroad appealed to the
supreme court. Maloney argued the
case in the supreme court and won
again. Now, don't understand US as
trying to prove that McGill hasn't
sufficient ability. We are not going to
engage in mud singing of that sort,
even though McGill's shouters do SO.
To the fair mind there isn't any
question of ability at issue in the
county judge campaign, even though
the legal editor of the Tony Enterprise
BEST advertising medium in the Town
of Dewey, patronized almost exclusive
ly by Ladysmith advertisers finds such
an issue. All fair persons concede
sufficient ability on both sides. The
issues are as to fairness in geographic
cal division of offices, as to honesty, as
to fairness of mind, as to which can
didate has shown most public spirit, as
to the policy of allowing county poll
tics to be controlled by a ring. Upon
these issues we believe the unpreju-
diced voter can arrive at but one con-
clusion, vote for Maloney.

There was one game warden not a
thousand miles from Ladysmith that
did not succumb to the temptation of
speaking little of the Stephenson
money. -Rusk County Journal.
Bro. Reed speaks with the emphasis
of one who is on the inside, and we
won't contradict him. 1t is worthy of
note at this time, however, that a
county Judge considerably less than a
thousand miles from Ladysmith "suc-
cumbed to the temptation of taking
some $500 Of Stephenson money, as
appears from the testimony before the
investigating committee. AS to how
he spent it, history as yet saith not.

CAN WE AFFORD TO GO DRY?

Some Ladysmith citizens who
honestly have the welfare of our city
at heart and are the best posted as to
the financial condition of the city, are
making the statement that we cannot
afford to Ego dry at the present
time. There are different ways of
looking at the question.
The Thompson Mercantile Company
of Hawkins, is doing some unique
advertising, which affords some food for
thought. Their advertisement reads:
Anyone taking drinks of whisky a
day for year at l0c drink can get in
exchange from the firm named below
for the same money the following bill
Ladysmith news-budget. [volume] (Ladysmith, Rusk County, Wis.) 1907-1927, 1909-04-01

And in addition to the above list we will give
lady's gold watch and chain to anyone making the
exchange.
Let's see; if they can afford to do
that in Hawkins, what does it mean to
Ladysmith? We have ten saloons,
which anyone who knows any thing
about the business will concede must
take in over their bars on an average
$40 each per day-that's in round num-
bers 100000 per year for ten saloons.
1t requires 1873 men spending 80 cents
each per day to make up this sum; the
amount of their drink bill would pur-
chase 1873 of the grocery lists offered
by the Hawkins firm, or 80 tons Of
sugar, 999 barrels of -four, 666 boxes
of crackers, etc., together with the
balance of the list in proportion.
This would almost make one ask the
question, "Can we afford to stay wet?'

Gee Wins Fin il
In w all Cup

e. s. Gee clearly proved his title
to be one Of the best, II not the
actual best, tennis players in these
islands yesterday when he defeatd
A. L. Lowrey three sets straight,
rs, Ga, 6-2.
The man from Manila certainly
showed his class on the courts yes
terday and by all around brilliant
play became eligible to compete
against Warren, the present holder
of the Wall cup. for the honor OF
holding the trophy for the season.
The first set was triumph for
Gee, and at one stage Lowrey had
five games to his opponents one.
and the set looked certainty for
him. However, Gee. pulling him
self together in great style, over
hauled his man, and after q strug-
gle made II hve all. and then, going
on in faultless manner. took the
set, 7-0.
In the second set the two experts
were at their best. and some of the
strokes were worthy of Norman
Brookes. Gees passing shots were
well nigh perfect, and he found the
side lines time after time.
Gee also took the second set, Ga.
but the game was much closer one
than the scores would indicate. Most
of the games went to deuce and
vantage several times before the
winning point was made.
Things did not look bright for
lowrey when the men made start
for the third set. as Gee. with two
sets to the good. could. II he cared
to, take It easy for SCI. and then
sparkle up in the fourth. However,
there was nothing like that doing.
and Gee. forcing the play, soon had
the set 3 to In his favor.
Lowrey then got hold of himself
and took one game more from Gee,
and then the set ended In Gees fa-
yor. 6-2. aa.. ~
Gee will play w. IL Warren for
the Wall cup Saturday at 4 p. m.
