OUR COUNTRY

Mr. John Luud, President Of the Nobel
Prize Committee at christiana, Norway,
in his speech of welcome to Mr.. Roose-
welt. paid well deserved and eloquent
tribute to this country, which he char
acterized as the New World, the
place where many idealsof life, not yet
possible in Europe, had been attained.
He spoke also Of the s..llions of poor
men and women from Europe who had
here achieved a happiness and pros
perity which the Old World could not
give them. When the fifty leading
German farmers visited Fort Atkinson
and the Hoard farm, three years ago,
they were met by about one hundred
and fifty prosperous German-American
farmers living about here. who came
from Germany years ago as poor men.
This fact was largely commented on
BIZ our visitors as something that could
not take place in the old country. We
ought, every man Of US, to appreciate
more than we do, what our blessed
country has to give to the poor and
well deserving. At that same meeting
of the German formers one of them
told us that he had $50 acres of potatoes
on his farm in Germany. and that he
could not afford to use machinery be-
cause he could hire men at twenty-five
cents a day ard women at ten cents a
day and board.
We told him we we're glad we did not
live in a country where poor human
flesh and blood were reduced to such an
extremity as that.
Our country It's Of Thee
Sweet land Of Liberty.
OF thee we sing

Is pe-ru-na Useful
for CataTrn?

Shonlda list ofthe ingredients ofPe-
runa be submitted to any medical ex-
pert, ofwhatever school or nationality,
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that each one OF them was Of
undoubted value in chronic catarrhal
diseases and had stood the test of many
years experience in the treatment Of
such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT
~ ER. Peruna is composed ofthe most
eMcacious and universally used herbal
remedies for catarrh. Every ingred-
lent Of Peruna has reputation of its
owninthe cureofsome phase ofcatarrh.
Peruna brings to the home the CON-
BINED KNOWLEDGE0F SEVERAL
SCHOOLS OF MEDICIEEin the treat
ment of catarrhal diseases; brings to
the home theseientifc skill and knowl-
edge Of the modern pharmacist; and
last butnot least, brings to the home the
vast and varied experience Of DR.. Hart
man, in the use ofcatarrh remedies, and
in the treatment of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is dis
ease which is very prevalent. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic eatarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. 1t may be of the nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma
ture Of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. This doctor has tried
20 cure them. That doctor has tried
to prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRING ANY RELIEF.
DR.. Hartman's idea is that catarrh
remedy can be made on large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and Of
the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedy can be supplied di-
rectly to the people, and no more be
charged for it than is necessary for
the handling of it.
No other household remedy so uni
yersally advertised carries upon the
label the principal active constituents,
showing that Peruna invites the full
inspection of the critics

ANNOUNCEMENT

To THE PUBLIC: AS promised in my
previous announcement to the voters
of Vernon county,, | herewith submit a
brief statement of my position on some
of the more important public questions
now before the people of this state.
| consider the denomination and reelection of
Hon Robert NJ. La Toilette to the United States
Senate absolutely necessary to progressive poll
tics in state and nation. His championship of the
cause Of all the people. both as governor Of this
state and now United States Senator, has
thoroughly demonstrated his undoubted capacity
for leadership in the pending struggle for real
preventative government and honesty in public
service.
am further in favor Of the ratification of the
amendment to the constitution of the United
States providing for an income tax
l favor the election of United States Senators
by direct vote of the people. and if elected, shall
exert my best efforts to secure favorable action
by our legislature to bring this matter before
congress.
The Improvement of puolic highways under the
supervision of the state, with such judicious dis
tribution of state appropriations for that pur-
pose, should receive general support Of all the
people.
The agitation for the preservation of our natural
resources, such IS water power. forests and min
erals should not be lost sight Of at the hands Of the
peoples servants. and this is especially true as to
members Of the legislature in this state.
favor the adoption Of county option law
with the proviso that, before taking effect such
law shall be submitted to vote of the people of
tho state Such referendum seems to me en-
tireiy proper, when it concerns a question upon
which the people are SO sharply divided in this
matter
hope that have submitted to the
people of the county candid and fair
statement of my views. Other ques-
tions of great Importance will, no
doubt, come up before the legislature,
and as to each and all of such questions
/ can promise only this: that | shall use
all my efforts and ability to represent
the interests of the whole people. 7
have no other interests to represent,
and to that end / pledge my candidacy.
Respectfully,
LAWRENCE GRIMSRUD.

Francis L. McGovern, one Of the Mil
waukee candidates for governor. and a
pronounced foe to county option, is
attempting to minimize the importance
of that issue in his speeches. He is
also vociferously denouncing the use of
money in campaigns, inst as if he had
not been a party TO the extravagant
use Of cash himself in past campaigns.
1t is a notable fact that there was ex-
pended 70 elect hins district attorney of
Milwaukee county. four years ago.
SEVENTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS
Think OF it, that fabulous sum for
election to a county oifieel And it is
no secret that a large portion of this
amount was paid by Isaac Stephenson.
McGoyeFn appears to have had no COM
FUNCTION Of conscience at that time.
And again he spent eleven or twelve
thousand dollars in his unsuccessful cam
paign for United States Senator two
years ago. The CENSOR does not say
that these great amounts were used
corruptly, but it it does assert that it
is the worst manner OF hypocrisy for
this alleged brewery candidate for gov
ernor to so about the state denouneing
other man for using free money when
he was FIRST to set the pace This pot
calling Kettle black is the kind Of
politics that should be frowned down.
Preaching one thing and doing another
Is too prevalent IN the olities Of today.

Obituary.

Hazel Minerva Scale, youngest
daughter Of John p. and Ida M. Scale,
was born at Folsom, Ohio, Feb. 2l,
1898 and departed this life at her home
in Hillsboro, Jan. 81, 1910, in the 18th
year of her age.
Deceased was the youngest member
of family of five children. She was
the first to go leaving father, mother,
one brother and three sisters to weep
in sadness her sudden going to the
land unseen.
Sprightly and full of the enjoyments
of life, kind and loving in DISPOSE
tion, she was the favorite of the home,
because she was the youngest, the
baby whom all loved and cared for
with loving devotion.
The family moving to Hillsboro on
January 4, this year, deceased was in
the best of health and was delighted
with the prospect of a residence in
town and anticipated much pleasure
in the forming of new friendships and
the benefit of better schools. The
second day after her arrival she was
stricken with typhoid fever and in
two weeks had gone from her home in
Hillsboro to her home in the Celestial
City. The house prepared by her
Savior and Friend, free from earth's
ills and the imperfections of time.
And since, "In my Fathers house are
many mansion; If it were not so l
would have told you; / go to prepare
place for you" To the home bereft
this comes as benediction from the
lips of Him whose loving arms en-
braced the children of earth and
declared, "of such is the kingdom Of
Heaven.
There Is land mine eyes have seen
In visions of enraptured thought;
SO fair that all which lies between
Is with its radiant glory trought.
A land upon whose blissful shore
There rests no shaaow, falls no stain
There those who meet shall part no more
And those long parted meet again.
