Obituary.
ALYCE MAUD EBBOTT.

The funeral of Miss Alyce Ebbott
took place last Sunday afternoon, con-
Quoted by Rev. R. w. Roberts and
Rev. L. A. Parr of Geneseo, Ill. Ser
vices were held at the home at 1890,
at the Congregational church at
o'clock and at Fassett cemetery where
the remains were inferred.
The sermon laid emphasis on the
thought of victory, the victory over
death which comes through Jesus
Christ. While, when Jesus comes we
have to endure loss and bereavement,
we should not mourn for those for
whom death has meant the release of
the soul from the bonds of flesh and it's
entrance into endless life. And those
who have accepted the rulership of
Christ need have no fear. Death has
no sting and the grave no victory.
1t was felt that this was true in re-
spect Of the deceased. Her life had
been surrendered to the Master, she
had lived out her day bravely and truly,
she had served the church, taught
Christ's little ones, and tried to help in
bringing in His kingdom.
Many will add their word to the tes-
She played her part; she did her work.
And now she has gone. For ourselves,
our own loss and loneliness and, pain,
we shall mourn. But for her, released
from pain, living in the light of the
throne, we will not mourn, but will be
thankful for the victory she has won
through Jesus Christ.
Alyce Maud Ebbott was born on AL
bion Prairie, June ID, 1882. moved with
her larents to this city the following
year and has made her home here ever
since. She graduated from the local
high school in June, 1899, and year
later entered Beloit college, but on ac-
count of sickness was unable to con-
tinue there. At the age of Is she join
ed the Congregational church in this
city and has been an active and faith
full member of the same. She died at
her home Dec. 80, 1909, in her 28th
year.
She leaves to mourn their irrepara-
BILE loss a father, mother, sister and
two brothers, besides numerous rela-
tives and host of friends.
The profusion of beautiful floral Of
ferings at the funeral by friends and
neighbors bore testimony of their SYM
thies for the passing forever of one
with whom they had been so pleasantly
associated and knew to be pure and
true. 1
Among the many who attended the
services were the following relatives
from out of town: Mr.. and Mrs. Harry
Ebbott, Fort Atkinson; Mr.. and Mrs.
VIM. Uglow, Giles Lein, Thomas Hand
ford and Miss Agnes Longley, of Pal
myra; Mrs. David w. Whittet and
Mr.. Joseph Bunting, of Redwood
Falls. MINI.

GAINESVILLE Turns Down Commission Law

After one Of the most spirited cam
paigns known in the history of James
vile politics, the voters on Tuesday
turned down the proposed change from
government by the mayor and common
council to the newly created rule by
commission by vote of LOTT to 622, a
majority of 395 against the proposed
change. The special election was call
ed by petition containing over 700
names, nearly 100 more than the total
vote favoring the change at Tuesdays
poll.
In this connection it might be men
toned that after five years trial of the
commission plan of government at Des
Moines, Iowa, SO much dissatisfaction is
found that the question of continuing
this system will be up before the voter
at the municipal election in March.

THE GOVERNOR GUEST OF HONOR
At the Business Mems Banquet on
Wednesday Evening.

At the Business Mems Banquet on
Wednesday Evening.
The third banquet given under the
auspices of the business and profession
al men of Edgerton, took place at the
Carlton hotel Wednesday evening with
Gov. j. 0. Davidson as the guest OF
honor. About 125 covers were laid and
the occasion proved decidedly enter
tanning one to all present. The music
for the dinner hour was provided by
Misses Lucille and Kathleen Culton in
violin selections and Luella Post as oc-
companist and added much to the en-
joyment of the evening.
w. S. Heddles, presiding as toast
master, introduced Gov. Davidson, who
expressed his pleasure at being present
at so large gathering of the repre-
sentative business men of Edgerton,
some of whom he knew could talk bet
ter than he for it was reported there
We're men present who had the reputa-
ton of talking some of his Crawford
county friends out of their crop of to-
bacco. 1t was natural he thought that
Edgerton should be a great tobacco
center for it was located in Rock Co.,
one of the finest agricultural districts in
the world. No wonder Wisconsin is a
great state for agriculture produces all
the wealth and Wisconsin is the garden
of Eden. No city is a success, he said,
unless the business men stand shoulder
to shoulder and business mems club
ought to bring good results. The gov
ernor also spoke of the educational sys-
tenn of the state as being in the front
rank and asserted that taxes paid for
education was the best investment that
can be made.
G. H. Babcock was the next speaker
upon the subject of good roads,, who
told of the advantages of improved
streets and country roads to every COM
munity.
Senator Owen, who is chairman of
the special legislative committee on
banking, was then introduced, who said
his committee had been endeavoring to
formulate law that would secure alb
solute security to depositors in banks,
and had spent much time in investigat-
ing the guarantee laws of other states.
He discussed the question at some
length and believed that sooner or
later the public would be afforded
greater security on bank deposits. He
also called attention to the fact that
since the passage of the present state
banking law not a dollar had been lost
to depositors in the state banks of Wis
consin The speaker, as well as Gov.
Davidson, took occasion to pay fiat
tering tribute to Assemblyman Whit
tet. The senator said it was no small
distinction to Edgerton to be the home
of so able legislator.
The last speaker was Prof. =. i.
Roethe, who spoke of the advantages
of home surroundings in the formation
of character of the young. q.
Referring to the matter of good
roads, the chairman on motion was in
structed to appoint committee of five
citizens to make an investigation of the
best manner of street improvements
for city the size of Edgerton, which
will be announced later. HE
A committee to arrange for the next
banquet of the Business Mems associa-
ton was selected to consist of Oscar
Jensen, VIM. Pelton and Sydney En-
cry.

MARY E11zABETH CHAPLIN JEssUP.

After years illness, which at last
turned into consumption, Mary Eliza
beth Chaplin, wife of E. N. Jessup of
Fulton, passed into her home beyond
for eternal rest.
Miss Mary Chaplin was born at Feed

at her home in Fulton, Wis, Jan. s.,

greater portion of her life. She was
first married to Jas. Smith by whom
she leaves three daughters, Mrs. 0. H.
Fessenden, Mrs. Orfa Fessenden and
Mrs. C. w. Blanchard. In 1879 she
married E. N. Jessup. She is survived
by Mr.. Jessup, her three daughters and
her only son, and great host of init
mate friends who had come to appre-
ciate so fully her womanly qualities.
All the kind ministrations of her friends
and loved ones were gwen freely in the
hopes of prolonging of her earthly
stay but the burdens of her flesh were
too great and her Father has called her
home. Let us joyfully await that home
coming little way ahead for we shall
join her once more.
The funeral services were held at her
late home Saturday afternoon at
O'Clock, Rev. r. w. Roberts of the

pr. Forbes winslow. a famous In
sanity expert. has stirred up q
good deal of comment by his state
ment that the world Is gradually
going crazy and that by and by we
wflI all be candidates for the bug
house. That is Just a mild and
gentle way OF telling us that he
believes the Democrats will get In
power again. The Doctor says:
by a simple mathematical calcula-
ton At can be shown the exact year
when there will be more insane
people in the world than sane"
Now II the Democrats want to know
when their next victory Is due. they
can Just get Dr.winslow to make
this calculation and they will have
their answer down pat
1t Is a little tough on us old
time Republicans to be told that
we will have to go crazy and go
to voting the Democratic ticket
after awhile. but when that time
comes we will be crazy and will
not have sense enough to realize
the humiliation of 1t. AS long as
the bulk of the people keep their
right minds there will always be a
safe margin for the Republicans.
but when DR.. Wnislow's crazy age
comes hopping along It will be a
picnic for the Democrats and the
devil. Our prayer is that the
Crazy Age may puncture tire
somewhere on the road and be a
long time delayed.-Yellow Jacket.

The democratic state committee
has issued a circular showing that
certain farm products have increas-
ed in price in ten years 100 per
cent. and they say the republican
tariff is responsible for it. and ask
what you are going to do about it?
The republican party will have to
admit the responsibility for 1t. but
we believe it is poor policy to
throw this at US in a county de-
pending entirely upon the farming
industry like Prowers county is.
They promise that II the democrat
ic party is placed in power to stop
it, and again we are forced to ad-
init they are right. for when under
democratic rule did farm products
ever bring such prices.

Deal On

Cards are being issued from dem
| ocratic sources in Lamar asking
the voters to cast their ballots for
II. p. Syp for county clerk, s. l..
Borton for treasurer and S. J. Hig-
bee for commissioner. This taken
in connection with the fact that
the Daily News refuses to mention
Messrs. Hoag, Stream and Gregory,
the republican opponents of these
candidates in its write-up OF the
local republican ticket, will give
the people some idea of the kind
of combination the democrats aid
and will also give the other demo-
cratic candidates some idea of the
kind of dish of crow being cooked
up for them in Lamar. These three
offices are the most important loo
ally from q political standpoint and
the democratic machine Is ready to
help slaughter all the balance of
their ticket in an attempt to pull
these men through. Republican
voters should be forewarned and
kill this deal. The alleged repub-
lican helping to work 1t up has held
one of the best offices in the gift
OF the party for thirteen years and
this Is the way he has OF returning
the favor to the party. Vote the
ticket straight.

A THIRD TICKET
IN PENNSYLVANIA
insurgents Of Both Big Parties Gather
In Philadelphia to Plan Launch
ing of Third Party.
(By Union Associated Press.)

Philadelphia, July 2S.-Insurgents
of both the Republican and Democratic
parties have gathered in this city to-
day to plan the launching of a third
party and the nomination of an inde-
pendent State ticket. Former Treas
urer John o. Sheath is a leader in the
movement, having the support of more
than eighty prominent Republicans
and Democrats throughout the State.
1t is alleged by the independents that
the Penrose machine is affiliated
with the liquor and corporation in
terests." The Independent Democrats
are just as strongly opposed to the
ticket headed by Senator Webster
Grim for Governor. The leaders pre-
dict that in view of the dissatisfaction
in the Republican and Democratic
ranks over the candidates named to
head each ticket the proposed third
party has good chance Of winning
next November. There is every indi-
cation that the title Independent Par
ty will be chosen, because it seems to
be the most popular among the anti
Organization followers. 1t may he
that the new party will nominate for
Governor William H. Berry, who is
the nominee OF the American
a,f,, -.,L
party. or former Mayor Guthrie of
ilttsburg. Rudolph Blankenburg and
D. Clarence Gibbaney are elso spoken
Of as possible candidates. Many of
The men connected with the new party
were identified with the old Lincoln
party four years ago. They declare |
that under present conditions liberty |
and justice are in greater jeopardy |
han would be possible from a foreign |
INVADER and make an appeal to lovers
If good government to rally to their
and work for nominees for
he high State offices who will repre-
ent something more worthy than per-
onal ambitions or the deals of cor
upt politicians.
