The editor of the World has appar-
emily convinced himself that Crawford
and LaFollette are as harmonious as a
pair of mating doves. But the record
shows that Bronson is in error as usual.
Crawford has clearly proven himself a
friend of the big corporations, des-
picable weakened reform faker, who
is nothing but tool of the plundering
element in Congress. AS Senator La
toilette is somewhat proud of his own
reputation it is hardly probable that he
would sully it by upholding the record
Crawford has made.

case of that reform" misrepresenta-
ton for which he has established such
an unenviable reputation. Mr.. Denton
has been the editor of this paper for
the past nine years, and will probably
continue in such capacity for nine more.
We have purchased the Milbank Review
and Mr.. Denton has been giving it his
personal attention the greater part of
the time for about two months, but
during that time he has conducted the
editorial page of this paper. Mr.. Bron-
son knows this, but he has the failing
characteristic of our reform leaders
and would rather lie than tell the truth
any time.
Mr.. Bronson also takes occasion in
several places in his paper to cast re-
Elections upon Mr.. Sexton, who is at
present employed by the Reporter and
Farmer In these attacks Mr.. Bron-
son shows himself coward. During
the past two years Mr.. Sexton edited
the Bristol Democrat and Mr.. Bronson
crossed pencils with him. In the battle
of several weeks duration which fol-
lowed Mr.. Bronson was beaten at every
turn; in fact, he was so badly beaten
that his feeble attempts to defend him
self and the bunch of reform" leaders
with whom he parades made him the
laughing stock of the county. And
finally, to escape, he notified his read
ers that he would not deal in person
alities."
After Mr.. Sexton retired from the
Democrat, and Bronson was sure he
was no longer editor of a paper, the
World at once opened its columns upon
the man who had clearly proven him
self the World editors superior in the
battle of wits and intelligence. The
action of the World was cowardly and
was no compliment to Bronson; nor did
it injure Mr.. Sexton, as everyone rec
ognized the fact that Bronson's libelous
attacks were the typical reform, "
dog-in- the-manger kind.
We shall make no further reference
to Mr.. Sexton, but knowing his ability
also the genuine pleasure it would afford
him to discuss any and all questions
with Editor Bronson, we have invited
him to take care of all references made
to him by the World in the future and
he is to have free hand and can say
what he pleases-which is notice to
Bronson that unless he desires to be
chased off the boards, as he was last
summer, it Willie to his advantage to
find some subject for discussion other
than Sexton.

The reform" press is again faunt-
ing the assertion that the railroads
control the stalwart wing of the Repub-
licau party. How about the two ere
form" conferences, one held at Sioux
Falls and the other at Mitchell, which
were attended by Gamble, Crawford,
Wesley, Elliott, and Hunter for the
Milwaukee road, johnson for the North
western and Way for the st. Louis.
The railroads are all with the insurg-
ents, and the fact that the laws made
by the reform" legislature during the
last two sessions to fool the people are
found to be unable to stand the tests OF
the courts, proves that the railroad
managers have been getting value re-
ceived from the Crawford-Vessey adj
ministrations. The "reformers" have
utterly failed to make good their prom
Uses in regard to railroad legislation.
The laws they have passed in this res
pect have been of the fiimsiest charac-
ter, without force or effect and it is
now evident from the perfect harmony
existing between the reform" leaders
and the railroad lobbyists that these
laws were constructed with the intent
and purpose of giving the appearance
of carrying out reform" promises
without materially injuring the policy
of extortion which our railroads are
now enforcing.

Editor Bronson still continues his
flirtatious attempts upon the democrats
but from the growls emenating from
the Democratic camp it is evident that
the Bronsonian brand of soft soap has
more lye in it than their constitutions
can stand. In fact, many of the Dem
ocrats regard Bronson's statement to
the effect that the Democrats and the
"reformers" are joined by the tie of
similarity in principles as direct in
suit to the principles of Democracy

terests at heart, to heal the wounds
then made and to have all work togeth-
er in spirit of harmony and good fell
lowship. Not so with the World. About
every so often Bronson has to probe
some old sore, and in this respect he is
like buzzard which feeds on carrion
and spreads corruption wherever he
goes, He evidently desires to again
indulge in that kind of a campaign tend
ing to destroy the business harmony
which is again dawning in Webster.

Most housewives, whose husbands

BREAKS DOWN
DENOMINATIONS
President Claims That w. c. +.
u. IL Responsible for
Broader Feeling.

The Women's Christian Temper
ance Union has done more to break
down the feeling between the North
and South, in the opinion Of Mrs. An
ma Angler Of Spokane. state president
for Eastern Washington. than any
other agency. When Frances S.
Willard went into the homes Of
southern women AFTER the war, she
says, and made the universal sitter
hood idea plain. she did more to heal
the wound caused by the great civil
strife than any other one person.
II believe, too" continued Mrs.
Angler, that the w. c. T. U. has
done more than anything else to
break down UNCONVENTIONAL feeling.
Personally the w. c. T. U. in which
have worked for 80 years, has meant
more to me than my church, for in
the w. c. T. U. people take a per-
sonal interest in you. In the churches
they don't always. People ask us,
what has the w. c. T. U. done? Well,
don't know that there is any one
great thing to which we can point,
anything in the nature Of a newspa-
per sensation; but the saving of a
single soul Is matter of consider
able importance when you come to
think of it. feel. too, that this great
prohibition wave which is sweeping
over the country is In large part due
to the work Of the w. c. r. U. 1

have sown."

to cooperate with the state superin-
tendent in the making of reports.
They should be courteous enough to
answer letters addressed to them,
even II they have -aothing to report.
Three-quarters of the dues for mem
bership belong to the state fund for
the publishing of the state temper
ance paper. Mrs. Angler said that
she knew Of unions which would use
that part of the funds in the local
treasury belonging to the state for
current expenses or for some local
object, and then be driven to a So
cial or a supper to raise funds to re-
pay it.
They don't realize that they are
doing wrong" said Mrs. Angler, but
l call your attention to the fact that
it is the same methods which bank
embezzlers use; just the same"

will be need of much work in com

or accept the plan at its meeting this

ing the nomenclature of the unions.
