The republicans are casting about
for a successor to Congressman E. A.
Morse of Amigo, who has held that
honorable position for four years.
For a good many years, the republi-
cans have looked upon the office of
congressman as sort of position with
which to honor certain ones in their
party, not for any exceptional ability
which they possessed, but just to dis
tribute the honor. In the case of ME-.
Morse, the year he was elected, there
was no one who seemed to want the
office but himself and he was able to
receive the nomination at the pr,
maries and to win out in the gen.
eral election which followed. He has
scarcely been heard of since he
took his seat. There is no reason
why the Tenth district should not be
represented by a man who would be
a credit to it; man of ability who
would command the respect of the ma
ton, not on account of his money,
but on account of his ability to do
things. The republican party has
such men within their ranks and so
has the democratic party. The mere
matter of passing the office around,
just to honor this or that man, is all
wrong. The people have it in their
hands to change this mode Of pro-
cedure if they want to, and this is
good time to begin.-Wausau Pilot.

ON LlCENS
MATTER.

Mr.. Editor: The word several is
somewhat elastic, but when used, as
you did in the Daily Reporter of yes
terday, in reference to the num-
Der of times some of our saloon
keepers have violated their own reso-
lutions, it is as far from the mark
as Jonathan's arrows. When an at
tempt was made in the spring to
enforce the liquor laws and City Or
dinances, some saloon-keepers called
it persecution and claimed they
ought to have had fair warning.
Their famous resolutions wee
signed by all we are told. The pub
lie was practically asked to forget
the past and look to the bright fu-
ture. Well, part of the future has
come and gone. But what is the re-
suit? Is it not well known fact
that some saloon-keepers have sys-
tematically broken those resolutions?
What are we going to do about it?
1 believe the only effective punish
mant is, revocation of the license
for selling to minors, which can be
done even after the law-breaker
pleads guilty and pays his fine. The
Tribune of June the End tells us
the reason the two saloon-keepers
were made to pay only nominal
fine was because '.It was brought
out in the testimony that the young
fellow who got the beer had been
in the habit of getting beer for his
parents" I overheard the father
of the young fellow brand the above
statement as absolutely false, and
added that his son was never sent
to those saloons to get beer for
his parents. Where did the Tribune
get it's information? 1t appears as
if someone were trying to throw
dust into the eyes of the people.

These are the days when the dis
contented farmers fancy lightly turns
to thoughts of moving. The great
railway systems of the West, flood
the mails with manuals setting forth
the beauties and virtues of this and
that region, each claiming to be par
excellence the home-seeker' paradise
Agriculture has in this aspect taken
the place of mining. In former times
most attractions to settlers from a
distance, was that in which gold was
taken out Of the ground in big yellow
nuggets or infintessimal dust; in
these later days the search is still
for a quick fortune, but the medium
exploited is the growing crop, which
can be turned into gold-or green
backs-by the slower processes of
planting, cultivating and harvesting;
and the pioneer now has for his en-
blems the gang plow and the reaping
machine, instead Of the pick and pan.
Now, the advertising circulars TEEN

reason that when Mr. LaFollette en-

He engages in no sham battles.
Though he may know that in the end
the enemy will defeat and overwhe1m
him there is no abatement of his

The men seemed to act strangely
and in fact, that the robbers have
been reported in that vicinity, which
was known to Mrs. Grob, her atten-
ton was called to the men at once.
The men being down in valley or
ravine, Mrs. Grob could not get
good view of them, so she thought
she would be able to get a better
sight. However when she did look
from the upstairs the men had
strangely disappeared. Exact news
as to what the officers are doing
could not be obtained at this time,
but we do know that some Of the
officers and a group of men left the
city this morning and they are pre-
sumably out in that vicinity trying to

that Aldrich had said earlier in the
debate that the German wage docu-
ment had come to the finance COM

and after the committee had made

SHALL THE LAWS AND
ORDINANCES BE ENFORCED

= 1t was only about two months ago
that the saloon men of Grand Rap
ids decided upon an excellent reform
movement and that was by meeting
together and passing resolutions, an
nouncing what they intended to do
in the observance Of the laws and
ordinances governing the sale of in
toxicating liquors to minors and
black-listed men in the future.
When these resolutions were pub
lished we believed that the saloon
men meant to live up to and COM
ply with said resolutions. We are
sorry to say that since then there
has been several violations and some
arrests are about to take place. We
understand that there are about
twenty-three men on the blacklist in
this city. Recently several of these
men have been intoxicated. They
have testified where they obtained
the liquor and from whom.
The question now arises what are
the city authorities to do with those
who have violated the law and their
own resolutions. We say, without
hesitation, that those who are guilty
of selling liquor to a minor, or a
black listed man, knowingly, and is
thus guilty, should be refused a IL
cense for period of at least five
