REASONS
Why You Should Insure
With Us

Ist. The Great West is organized under the
Canadian Laws which are the strongest in the
world and the best enforced
end The Great West is doing business en-
tirely in the North and has very low death rate.
grid. The Great West is earning larger in
terest rate than any company in the world In
1908 the Great West earned over III Per Cent
while 20 of our best companies averaged only Az
Per Cent
4th. The Great West surplus when COM
pared with their assets is larger than any company
doing business in North Dakota.
5th The Great West officers and assistants
salaries do not amount to as much as drawn by
the presidents of some of our American companies.
9TH The Great West combined expense and
death rate is Las Per Cent, and is lower than any
company in the world. The average of IS of our
best American companies is 1.86 Per Cent
9TH The Great West writes both Participant
ing and Non-particpating policies. Their rates
for both plans of insurance are lower than any
company doing business in the state.
9Th If dividends on Participating policies
are left with the company, they agree to pay the
net rate of interest that their investments are
earning, which was over 7 Per Cent in 1908 and
guarantee that it will not be less than az Per
Cent. Dividends may be withdrawn at any time
or will be added to the policy IN case of death.
Other companies pay only Per Cent.
We might give you more reasons but this
surely is enough Just remember that a com
panys success depends on low expense and
low death rate and high interest rate. We
hold the worlds record on these points

Life Insurance

IS simply playing safe. Suppose you have
saved $4,000, This could be invested in safe Sc
curities at Per Cent and would earn $1,000 per
annum. Is your family able to get along on
this amount? Of course, not, as they have
your income to help. But they will not have that
if you should be taken away from them. You
are probably self made man and by hard work
and self denial on the part of your faithful wife
and yourself, you now feel that you can put your
worries aside and take life more easy Your
children are in school receiving good educa--
ton SO as to make life easier for them than it
has been for you. Your home is monument
that any man can feel proud of. My friend, what
arrangements have you made to protect this mon
ument that you have spent your life in building?
Are you going to allow it to be destroyed? 1t
surely will be if you have not provided an income
of more than 81 200 per year. Are you going
to compel your wife to live in different circum-
stances than you have accustomed her to? Sup
pose that your age is DO years. Are you willing
to pay $235 year if we will pay your family
$4,000 when you are taken from them? Will
you pay $3o75o year if we agree to pay your
family $4,000 in case of your death and also
guarantee that if you live 20 years we will give
you paid up policy for $4,000 or will return
you more money than you have paid us? Don't
you think this good way of protecting your fam
lily? In other words, playing safe" You may
not have been able to save $50, 900 which would be
the more reason why you should carry Life Insur-
ance. Will you protect your loved ones? You
must decide but remember that it's your wife and
children that will suffer if you do not

La FRANCE W. WOOD

To THE VOTERS OF WISCONSIN,:
l am a non-partisan candidate for
State Superintendent. I became a
candidate in response to many ur-
gent requests that came to me from
prominent educators throughout the
state.
If elected I shall strive to conduct
the affairs of the Office in such
manner as to give to all persons
and to all classes of schools what
their merits demand. l shall also
do at least one thing that no other
state superintendent has ever done;
namely, shall devote several weeks
of each year to the visitation of
country schools and the study of
country school problems from the
standpoint ofactual observation.
Assuring you that shall be very
grateful for your support, l am,
Sincerely yours,

Yet five days, and then election.
In the excitement over local m alters
do not forget that there are some
officers of statewide Importance to
be elected. This spring we choose
a State Superintendent of Public In
struction. There is no more impor-
tant office in the state. The super
inlendent comes into touch with
more people and more vitality than
does any other of our officers. The
position needs a man who is capa-
BILE, fearless, energetic, progressive,
a leader, and one who knows the
schools of Wisconsin and their
needs. We believe that L. w. Wood
of Neillsville is such a man. He has
grown up in Wisconsin's schools.
He has studied them as few men N
the state have. He is essentially a
man of the people, and we bespeak
for him the votes of all. Ladies
NAV vote. At this. election they
may vote for state superintendent
and for county superintendent. We
hope they will do so, and that their
votes will be recorded for L. w.
Wood on the state ticket. Vote for
! Wood.

Misrepresentation

/ a local newspaper LnaC - ISuuCCu
to the necessity of willfully misrep-
resenting, and drawing wholly IN
warranted conclusions, in an at
tempt to discredit contemporary
is a pitiable object.
We are charged, in effect, with
having given editorial endorsement
to an alleged combination having
for its purpose the election Of Steph-
enson and Davidson to the United
States Senate and Baensch to the
office of Governor. This we abso-
lutely deny. A simple statement of
the fact that such a combination
would be strong one, was no en-
dorsemept of the project. We have
never favored Davidson's election
to the Senate, and we opposed the
election of Stephenson, until the
voters Of the state named him as
their choice. All that we have since
said in his favor is, that if the pri-
mary election law means anything,
it means Stephenson for the Senate,
and that his style of campaigning
was common to most candidates for
office.
1t was the Wisconsin reformers
themselves who increased the glut
of millionaires in the United States
Senate, about which they are so
bitterly complaining. If Mr. Cook
is a millionaire we supported mil
lionaire for the Senate. The choice
seemed to lie between Millionaire
Stephenson and Millionaire Cook,
and we owe no one an apology for
our preference for the latter.
In reference to the charge that we
have gone over TO La Toilette,
Ekern, and Lenroot, we will say:
We have freely expressed our OPP
position to La Toilette and his poll
tical methods, and have not recanted,
Here is a quotation from the Journal
that our censor must have over
looked. eve are not advocating
the election of Davidson to the Sen
ate, but most respectfully protest
against the implied proposition that
our system Of government will prove
a failure in case Mr.. La Toilette is
not chosen as his own successor in
the Senate" That protest is still
on file. So far as Ekern is con-
cerned, we will say that in our opin-
ion his appointment as Deputy In
surance Commissioner was gross
Injustice TO the insurance companies
who have rights that should be re-
spected. His career in connection
with insurance legislation stamps
him as an improper person to fill
the position which he now occupies.
When it gets to Lenroot, we do not
understand how anyone VINO can
read plain English could class this
paper as a Lenroot organ. While
Cannon is Speaker of the House of
Representative so far as the peo-
pie of this Congressional District
are concerned, Mr.. Lenroot might
about as we'll be stenographer in
Superior as a Representative in
Washington.
Whether the Journal be on band
wagon or walking in the DUST"

us two weeks ago will be in on
schedule time, 'just the same"

LAWYER ASKED FOR
RULING ON CLOTHES
Dispute Over Tuxedo Suit Re-
ferred TO Clarence CroWelI
by Justice Qninn

OAKLAND. Jan. l4.-Perplexed by a
dispute over a tuxedo suit, Justice of
the Peace Quinn called upon Attorney
Clarence croweil TO decide whether the
garments were properly made. Croweil
is suit commissioner for the superior
court, and that fact added weight to
the apparent propriety of his selection
as arbiter. Crowell was known in for
mer times as the Beau Brummel of the
legal profession, distinction which
he now disclaims.
The case came to the notice of Jus
tice Quinn when A. Jacobs, tailor sued
r. z. Revalk. typewriter agent, for $50,
said TO be the agreed price of the suit.
Testimony showed that Jacobs had
agreed to make an $50 tuxedo suit for
ReYalk in consideration of Revalk in
stalling a new typewriter worth 500
for Jacobs and allowing $50 for an old
one.
When Revalk saw the suit he baked
He said that the material was poor and
that the suit was badly made He pro-
tested that it was tight where it should
be loose and loose where it should be
tight.
Crowell could not be induced to pass
on the merits of the suit or of Jacobs
contention that it was fit for a leader
of fashion, although much pressure
was brought TO bear upon him today.
Justice Quinn granted a weeks contin-
uanee. Expert tailors will be sum-
moned and theiFsopinions prabably will
be reflected in the judgment to be
rendered by the court.

CITY'S CHARTER
MODEL INSTRUMENT
Louis F. Post, Editor of Maga-
zine, Highly Praises Berke-
ley Document

BERKELEY, Jan. 14.-From all parts
of the country have come words OF
praise for the new Berkeley charter
which will probably be voted upon
January so. The municipal document
drawn UP by a board of 10 freehold
ers, among whom were President
Wheeler, Prof. William Carey Jones,
John Nj. Fey and others, is said by
Louis l.. Post, editor of the Chicag-
Post, magazine devoted to civic prob
lens to be superior to the Des Moines
charter, having as a basis of govern
ment the election of five commission
ers who will handle all branches of
the municipality. Post declares:
While Chicago politicians are pifang away
at antique charter making. public spirited cti-
zens elsewhere intelligently at work franz
ing charters in harmony with changed and
changing municipal cenditions-not patch quilt
fashion, but by sane constructive methods.
The latest contribution is made by Berkeley,
across the bay from San Francisco. Among the
public spirited men who have had hand in pro-
duelng this charter, the adoption of which by
the people of Berkeley seems to be assured is
Benjamin Ide Wheeler president of the Uniyer-
slty of California Other distinguished citizens
participated, the chairman of the board of free
holders being William Carey Jones, head of the
veFslty.
The result is clear improvement upon the
1es aA0lHes plai, not IN principle, regarding
which 1t is the same, but in detail. One of the
improvements over the Des Moines plan is the
substitution of the .secsnd election method for
primaries. At the irst elections majority vote
Is required to elect, and in so far as candi-
dates fail to get majority the first election is
treated as primary and the two highest can
didates contest at a second election.
Excellent provisions for adopting municipal
ownership and conserving all municipal property
rights are made. and every advantage of official
responsibility subject to Initiative referendum
and recall, as established in the Des Meines plan,
Is incorporated.
This is in all respects the best example Of
charter making yet put out.
The new charter has attracted con-
siderable interest here. The various
civic and improvement clubs have In
dorsed the new instrument of govern
ment and charter club has been
formed TO secure the support of ma
jerity of the voters at the polls. The
trustees will formally set the election
date tomorrow night
Tonight the executive committee of
the Charter club held meeting in the
-eFst National Bank building. A dis
eussion of the charter was also held in
the First Christian church tonight.

OMMISSIONER LANE
SCORES RAILROADS
Says Witnesses Lack KnowI-
edge of Evidence

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 14.-"You gem
tlemen are going to be seriously en-
barrassed in making your own case If
you insist on the rules of evidence. i
have noticed that railroads frequently
wish to introduce evidence of which
the witnesses do not have personal
knowledge"
This remark was directed at Attorney
Dunn, representing the Southern Pa
cifc railroad. by Interstate Commerce
Commissioner Lane, who began taking
testimony today in the freight car
switching charge cases. Dunn had oh
jected to the introduction of letter as
evidence that only in Los Angeles and
San Francisco were such charges made.
The Los Angeles jobbers association
asserts that the railroads collect about
S250.000 annually from the merchants
of Los Angeles in switching charges
and that the charge is illegal. Dis
elimination is alleged.
A suit similar to the one being heard
by Commissioner Lane today has been
fled in San Francisco by the allied
business interests. Attorney Mann, rep
resenting the protestants of the north
ern metropolis, was present.

CONGRESSMEN WANT
CASH FOR HARBORS
Sentiment in House Changes and
Bill May Yet Be Reported

WASHINGTON. Jan. l4.=While 1t
has been generally understood that no
river and harbor appropriation bill
would be passed at this session of con-
gress, the sentiment, especially among
the members of the house, is changing
so rapidly that there now is a possibil-
ity that a bill carrying total appropria-
tions of about S5o,o00. 900 for river and
harber work will be put through be-
fore March 4.
Representative McLachlan Of Cali
fornia, a member of the rivers and
harbors committee said today that he
strongly favored reporting a bill at
this session.
In California said MeLaehlan. I'VE
are in great need of three important ap-
propriations. First in Importance is
Oakland, which needs a direct appro-
pria tion of $3.50, 900. For the channel
leading to Mare island s25O,000 is i'm
peratiyely needed. Then in the south
ern part of the state we need $500, 900
for Wilmington harber."
Senator Perkins today secured the
adoption in the senate of concurrent
resolutions directing the secretary of
war to cause surveys of the bar of San
Francisco bay and Oakland harbor and
70 submit estimates of cost of the fol-
lowing three projects:
A channel 700 to 500 feet wide and 25
feet deep from San Francisco bay to
the foot of Tenth avenue extended,
thence around Brooklyn basin, 500 to
700 feet wide and % feet deep at low
tide.
No. is a similar project, except
that the depth be 80 feet at low tide.
Project No. 3 is the same. except
that lit requires that the whole of
Brooklyn basin be dredged to pierhead
line at a uniform depth of 25 or 80
feet at low tide.
