SHERIFF MAOOEN'S
Bl-UNDER

BLUNDER
The reports from Winter, Wis, indi-
cate that Sheriff Madden and his deputies
have made mess of what was already
a bad job. John Dietz was sought on a
warrant for shooting man and wound
ing him. But Dietz had defied arrest,
and, being known to be desperate
man, the sheriff wisely took precautions
to avoid getting hurt or having any Of
his deputies hurt. But the shooting
of his children Saturday morning was
without the shadow of an excuse and
nothing short of an outrage. The vic
Tins and the officers agree, according
to the reports, that the order from the
sheriff to halt was followed almost i'm
mediately by volley from the sheriff s
posse, wounding one of the boys and
his sister. Why the shooting was done
we cannot imagine, unless the sheriff
or some of the men lost their heads and
saw in this girl and her brothers riding
peacefully along the road raid on the
town. 1t requires no sympathy with
Dietz in his defiance of law to see what
a terrible blunder the sheriff has COM
mitted, and how Dietz may be expected
to make more serious trouble in retalia-
ton for the shooting Of his children

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
I WOULD ABOLISH
THE SALE OF LIQUOR

II had the power to give this coun-
try the one thing that / think it most
truly needs next to the religion OF
Jesus Christ, and which in my judg-
ment would be most conducive to the
industrial education and moral up
building of the nation, / would unhesi-
tatingly give it strong National tenn
perance law, and compel it's enforce
ment by the proper officers.
here assert that all the wrongs
and iniquities of privilege and all the
robberies, oppression and greed of
monopolies do not compare with the
sorrow, the ruin, the misery, the
crime, the poverty the madness, the
vice, the degradation, the death and
damnation produced by strong drink.
1t destroys home life; breaks the
hearts of mothers and wives; takes
the clothes off the backs of little chill
dren and substitutes rags; degrades
manhood; makes lewd women out of
virtuous maidens; stiles ambition,
destroys hope, weakens the body,
blights the mind and blackens the soul
until it turns this earth, made for
mans happiness and use, into hell
for his ruin and misery.
In the interest, therefore, of bust
ness! for the protection of helpless
women and children; for the suppress
sion of crime; the amelioration of
want and poverty; the prevention of
disease; the preservation of life, the
salvation of human souls, and for the
sake of more than eighty-six millions
of true, brave and noble American
men, women and children, would be-
stow this gift of national temperance,
thus destroying fearful curse, and
restoring man to the God-like Image
in which he was created.

Sensible Germany.

The heads of the chemical industry
in Germany have come to the conclu-
sion that the following circular is the
proper thing to place in the hands OF
their constituencies:
I'VE urge our members to use every
opportunity to set before their work
men the disadvantages Of the use OF
alcohol. Among these are the use
less expenditure of money, the weak
ening of their own health and that of
their children, and the consequent d.
minished resistance to disease; the
greater liability to accidents among
men who are not total abstainers, par
invalidism and the diminished income.
eve urge our members to oppose
the use of alcohol by all means, by
providing non-alcoholic drinks, such
as cold coffee and mineral water in
summer and hot drinks in winter, also
by the dissemination of popular litera-
ture, by the erection of proper places
of amusement for the hands in large
factories, of reading-rooms, workmen's
homes, or rather homes in which alco-
hol is excluded, by young peoples So
cieties which will keep young people
off the streets and away from the
drinking places.
''No alcohol should be allowed in
factories, particularly on account OF
the danger from accidents. Infringe
ments of the order should be punished.
Any who appear on the premises un-
der the influence of liquor should be
discharged"

Of the library or that the city is doing
its full duty by the public, and we beg
leave to offer few suggestions.
AS we understand it, the chief func-
ton of public library is to furnish
reading matter to those who cannot
afford, or at least do not buy books and
other literature for themselves, and to
furnish reading room to those who
have not proper facilities at home. OF
course, it is also convenience to those
who have private libraries by atfording
access to reference and other works
that are too expensive and too rarely
used to be included in small or moder-
ate sized private library. We do not
think, however, that this latter function
would justify the support in place OF
this size Of library at public expense.
The chief and almost the only justifica-
ton of such use of public funds is that
reading matter is thus furnished to a
large class who would not otherwise
have access to it.
Now, large number of our male
citizens are laboring men, men who are
not widely read, who have little appe-
tite for Emerson or Browning. Macau-
ley or Plato, but have lively interest
in current news and discussions. Our
library board has wisely provided for
this class, the supply of newspapers
and magazines being exceptionally
good. Notwithstanding the ample sup
ply of good current literature, compar-
atively little use is made of it, and, as
breakfast food dealers say, There's a
reason" To one reason especially we
desire to call attention.
Unfortunately majority of these
men are, like ourselves, addicted to the
use of tobacco, 'terbacker chawers, .
according to the contemptuous expires.
sion of the gas plant up the street.
After hard days work they seek the
solace of the nicotine fumes, "a pipe
and book" perhaps; anyhow, pipe.
Recognizing this widespread human
frailty, why shouldn't the public library
afford room where the laboring man
could enjoy his pipe and at the same
time feast on the abundance of mental
food with which the library is supplied?
When the training school moves into
it's new quarters, why shouldn't one OF
the rooms in the basement be fitted
into ''smoker?'
Don't raise your hands in holy horror
at the idea of desecrating library
with tobacco smoke. We grant that
the habit is bad one, but it is "a con-
dition and not theory" that we arc
up against. The man who smokes is
paying his good money to support the
library, and should be afforded fair
share of consideration
This is one of several suggestions we
have for the use of the basement rooms
We would be glad to publish contribu-
tons on the subject.

of the county have been opening up the
past week and all the factories now in
operation. Many factories began re-
ceiving milk in April and the first new
cheese, limburger and brick, has al.
ready been delivered to buyers.
The past season was one of the best
the cheese business in this section has
ever known and the present season is
opening with prospects that are very
encouraging to makers and dealers.
The high prices have brought up the
milk prices and the milk that is sold is
bringing from Is cents to % cents
hundred more than last season. Many
of the factories are cooperative but
there are still many factories that are
buying milk. The dealers are receiving
many inquiries for new cheese and are
looking forward to busy season and
good prices.
