j. W. Carow, candidate for district
attorney, is an example of the type
of self-made men, the type to which
America owes most Of its progress.
Left an orphan at an early age, he
was thrown upon his own resources,
and a grim battle with adversely de-
veloped a vigorous and self-reliant
character. The oldest child in the
family, upon him fell the burden of
supporting the younger children. BY
hard work and thrift he supported
the family, educated the younger
children and put himself through col
lege. So much for his early biogra-
ply. These few facts show that he
is constituted of the right stuff to
make good under whatever circum-
stances he may be placed.
After graduating from the Law
School of the State University, he
practiced law at Baraboo four years,
coming to Ladysmith three and half
years ago and entering into partner
ship with T. M. Thomas. Since COM
ing here his practice has been ex-
tensive, including many important
cases in the various branches of the
law. In all of his work he has ac-
quilted himself in highly creditable
manner. He is a hard worker, pre-
pares his cases we'll, and is forcible
in argument.
Above all things, Mr.. Carow is OPEN
honest and fearless. In politics he is
Progressive, openly and at all times.
He doesn't trim his sails to catch
each breeze that might possibly watt
him to official position, does not cater
to bosses in the hope of gaining ac-
cess to the political wires. On prin-
ciple and at all times he fights for
law and order, regardless of the pol

TOM FOSTER FOR TREASURER

Farmers and businessmen who want
to see Rusk County pushed to the front

Tom Foster for treasurer. Mr.. Foster,

for the great exhibit at the Illinois
state fair that took first place on the
clovers, timothy, potatoes, apples, etc.
and which was not only a wonderful
success in placing Wisconsin before the
outside public, but has been one of the
principle points used by Commissioner
Campbell in his recent addresses that
have induced landowners, bankers and
others to contribute $4,000 to a fund
to advertise Wisconsin. Mr. Campbell
disclaims credit for this great exhibit
for the reason that it belongs to Mr..
Foster.

office of treasurer and will treat every
one with the same cordiality that has
