times on Sunday and for some time
three days per week at the mills during

resulted, so far, in eighty-seven per-
sons publicly enlisting-either for the
first time or consecrating themselves
anew-for the Masters service.
On Monday evening, the Oath, Mr..
Romig gave an illustrated lecture on
Honolulu to large audience in the opera

LADYSMITH LOSES TO BARRON
Our II. S. Boys Played Their First
Game of Foot Ball Saturday

Saturday, Oct. 22, the Ladysmith
High School boys played their first
game of foot ball and were defeated at
the hands of the Barron High School.
Our defense being weak, Barron could
plunge through the line almost any time
for a ten yard gain. Oar interference
was not good and signal plays did not
seem to work at all, while our opponents
had the bes t kind of interference and
put through most all of their plays.
1t was the first game that our team
ever played and naturally they were a
little nervous at first, but as the game
progressed this gradually wore away
and they were able to put up good
game, although they were unable to
score on the enemy, a tumble at the
wrong time preventing three or four
touch downs.
The Barron boys were a gentle man.
ly lot of athletes and played good
game, although they admit that if our
boys had had more experience they
could have put up better game and
perhaps have won out.
Owing to the radical changes in the
rules this year, the accidents were few
only some minor bruises being sustain
ed by some of the boys falling upon the
rough ground.

go and see your home team beaten, but
you must remember that they have not
much material to choose from and can
not put out as strong team as some
of the larger schools. The boys are
practicing hard for other games and
would like to see enough people turn
out at the next game to pay all of the
expenses and at least partially remove
the debt of $3.50 which was incurred
by the poor attendance at Saturdays

CROWNnART ENDORSED
STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE is
AGAINST BANCROFT
5000 SIGNATURES IN THREE DAYS
Supreme Courts Ruling Against the
Will of People, Independent Can
didate for Attorney General


Will of People.-Independe Can
didate for Attorney General
At the recent primary election the
Republicans of Wisconsin clearly and
forcefully expressed their opposition to
Levi Fl. Bancroft for attorney general
by voting for the deceased F. T. Tucker.
They did this believing that by so doing
the result would cause vacancy which
would be filled by an appointment by
the state central committee as provided
by Section "a of the Statutes, which
reads as follows:
'If the nominee dies after the ballots
are printed and no nomination shall be
made as herein provided, the votes cast
for him shall be counted and returned,
and if he shall receive a plurality the
vacancy shall be filed as in cases of va
cancies occurring after election.
They believed that the primary law
embraced this section when it provided
that:
''The provisions of the Statutes now
in force in relation to the holding of
elections = and all kindred sub
jects shall apply to all primaries inso-
far as they are consistent with this act,
the intent of this act being to place the
primary under the regulations and pro-
tection of the laws now in force as to
general elections. J."
Three justices of the supreme court
agree with the people that, since Tuck
er received a plurality of the votes cast,
the position should be declared vacant;
the remaining four justices hold that
the above is not the law and that by
their votes, the people nominate Mr..
Bancroft.
This majority of one justice makes
the law and Mr.. Bancroft's name goes
on the ballots as the Republican candi-
date for attorney general.
This decision of the supreme court
was received with surprise and con-
sternation surprise, that such clear
provision could be so construed by the
learned judges; CONSERVATION, because
the decision might result in the cleo
ton of so undesirable man as Ban
croft to 80 important position as at
torney general.
But the masses at once arose to the
emergency and from every nook and
corner of the state came the unquali-
fed demand that Mr.. c. H. Crown
hart, who was selected to fill the sup
posed vacancy and received the unani-
NOUS endorsement of members of the
Republican platform convention. be-
come an independent candidate for the
office. Within three days after blanks
were distributed over three thousand
electors had signed petitions and many
wrote personal letters urging Mr..
Crownhart to make the fight.
This, then, is the situation: Bancroft S
name is on the ballot by virtue of de-
cision of the court, but Mr.. Crownhart
is the candidate of the Progressive Re-
publicans who are in accord with the
Republican platform.
MIR. Bancroft has many times publicly
declared his opposition to the principles
enunciated in that platform and re-
| ferred to Senator La Toilette as the
Mad Mullah of Wisconsin. He

MAN-MADE CREEDS
M. E. PASTOR GIVES SERMON ON
RELIGIOUS ToLERATION
DIFFERENT OPINIONS INEVITABLE
Question of Form of Baptism Ably
Discussed by Rev. Watson in
Lengthy Discourse Sunday

Rev. j. E. Watson addressed large
congregation at the opera house last
Sunday evening, the general subject OF
his discourse being an elucidation of his
attitude as expressed in his announce
ment that he discards man made creeds
and takes his stand on the Bible as his
rule of faith and practice. The sermon
was strong plea for liberality in the
Interpretation of the Scripture and fol
a wide tolerance of the sincere religious
convictions of those with whom we may
happen to differ in Scriptural interpre-
tation. Incidentally it was an explana.
tion and eloquent defense of the Meth
odist practice regarding baptism.
He referred to the great diversity of
opinion regarding the specific acts OF
worship believed to be commanded or
required by Scripture, the difference in
opinion being entirely due to differ
ence in Interpretation of the Bible.
One man contends that baptism by inn
mersion is commanded by the Bible,
another denies it; one declares that the
Bible commands us to observe Satur-
day as a day of rest, another stoutly
contends that Sunday is the true day
of rest and religious observance; one
sect contends that the washing of one
another's feet is enjoined by Scripture,
while another holds that such ceremony
was simply a custom of the time, and
not intended as permanent injunction.
The Quakers explain on this latter
basis all of the practices enjoined by
Scripture, holding them mere customs
not binding at the present time.
Summing up these various interpre-
tations, Mr.. Watson said: Where am
in my effort to take the Bible and the
Bible alone as my guide? All are in
earnest; all are honest, and all are
ready to make sacrifices for their
faith, but this does not exclude the fact
that some of them must be mistaken.
and all of them may be mistaken. =
In order to illustrate what | wish to
get at, am going to examine the most
notable question of controversy, viz. :
the mode of Christian baptism. | wish
to bring this before you as it looks to
me in the Scripture. do not insist that
have infallible authority, and if it
does not look that way to you, you have
a perfect right to your idea"
The speaker proceeded to show that
the Greek word, "baptizo" had variety
of meanings, todye, to dye by dipping, to
wash, etc. In the English version the
word is sometimes translated wash. )"
In Mark IA it says, when they come
from the market except they wash or
baptize they eat not" Many other in
stances were given in which the con-
text plainly shows that the word "bap-

should be defeated by Crownhart and
he will be if the Progressives do their
duty.
Mr.. Crownhart's name will be found
in the last column on the ballot, a
sample of which is printed in the In
formation to Voters" on page 7 of this
issue. In order to make your vote
count for him, you must draw a line
through the name of the nominee for
Attorney General on whichever ticket
you are voting Through the name of
Bancroft if the Republican ticket and

name of Crownhart in the last inde-

BANKS CONSOLIDATE
STATE BANK TAKES OVER THE
LADYSMITH NATIONAL
BANKS ASSETS NOW 100000
Officers of National Retire, Cashier
Thompson Devoting Entire Time
to Flambeau River Lumber Co.

To OUR FRIENDS AND PATRONS:
Five years ago the first day of
November the Ladysmith National
Bank started for business in more or
less stormy time in the history of Lady
smith; and though the bank grew.
prospered. and we believe served the
public in a trustworthy, efficient, and
confidential manner, yet the banking
field was crowded. A consolidation of
the Ladysmith National Bank and the
State Bank of Ladysmith took place on
Oct. % under the name of the State
Bank of Ladysmith, giving it resources
of about 100000, large enough to
serve the public we'll with satisfactory
profits to the banking interests.
Having the welfare of our patrons al
ways foremost in mind, we believe it
to their interest to merge the two
conservative local banks under the
management of home people. Our
cashier, W. E. Thompson, will assist
the patrons of the Ladysmith National
Bank in becoming adjusted to the new
management and will personally look
after their wants. We assure our pat
rons that there will be no inconvenience
to them and that they may continue
making deposits, writing checks, and
conducting their banking business in
the usual manner except that the busi-
ness will be conducted in the building of
the State Bank of Ladysmith.
Laurids Jorgenson is interested in
the banking business of his native
state. Nebraska. W. E. Thompson,
after he has fully looked after the
wants and needs of our patrons, will
continue in Ladysmith as an officer of
the Flambeau River Lumber Co.
The State Bank of Ladysmith is Off
cered by strong, able men, we'll known
in the community, and with the con-
solidation they are able and willing to
do everything for our customers that
good bank ought to do. We thank and
appreciate our friends and patrons
whom we have had the pleasure to serve
the past years.

The above concise statement given
out by the officers of the Ladysmith
National Bank explains an important
change which took place in Ladysmith's
business world Monday morning, Oct.
"a. The matter has been under con-
sideration by the directors of the two
banks for some time Both institutions
were in thrifty condition and their
combination gives Ladysmith one of
the strongest banking houses in North
Wisconsin, the combined assets amount
ing to over $500, 1000. The officers of
both banks had the confidence and good
will of our citizens, and it is appreciated
that one strong bank is in position to
better serve the business interests of
community than two lesser Institutions
All the officers of the Ladysmith
National Bank will retire, Mr. Jorgen-
sons banking interests in Nebraska
precluded the possibility of his returning
to Ladysmith for some time to come,
and the increasing duties of Mr.. Thomp
son as secretary and treasurer of the
Flambeau River Lumber Co. demand
his entire attention. He will remain
with the bank, however, for short
time.
