Woodrow Wilson is not the candi-
date for the big high tarff-fostered
corporations, SO they will contribute
nothing toward the necessary ex-
penses Of his campaign.
Should they offer to contribute, he
would refuse their money and send it
bcak.
The corporations do not want
president who is particular about
where campaign contributions come
from.
Therefore, they do not want Wood
row Wilson.
Woodrow Wilson is the candidate
of progress, which means that he
stands for fair play and a square deal
for all; special privileges for none.
The people must supply the Will
son campaign fund with their dollars,
fifty-cent pieces, or whatever they can
afford to give.
You are urged to contribute, no
matter what the amount.
The Ardmoreite will publish in this
column the names and amounts given
by democrats in this portion of the
state.
The list of those who have con-
tributed through the Ardmoreite to
the National Campaign fund is as fol-
lows:

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 24.-An

while those who have been making
the fight of their lives for a return

the civil war, as it relates to our
own shipping, see in the Panama
canal bill consummation much to

special message to congress on the
Panama canal bill while in favor

engaged in the coastwise trade very
automatically calls upon congress to
pass simple joint resolution CIV

out the question of discrimination
in favor of ourselves before the
supreme court. In this way, 1t is
thought, will the alleged violation of
the y-Pauncefote treaty Oe over

However, it is a triumph for Am
erica and Americans and they have
right to expect wonderful things
in the way of increased commerce
when the Panama canal is open
to the ships of the world.
The two houses of congress are
in the midst of the throes OF confer
ence wrangles and frequent occa-
sions to adjust differences between
the two bodies and the white house.
The chief difficulty is that no reg
ular democrats, regular republicans,
or so-called progressives can con
troll the situation. Whatever defi-
mite action is taken must come as
compromise result. This has been
obvious in the most important legis-
lation before congress, involving
even the regular supply bills, with
the disposition Of one faction or
another to tack upon the appro-

Amendments to the workingmen'
compensation law of 1911 are recon-
mended by the Wisconsin Industrial
Commission. Compensation under
the Wisconsin law, is based on loss Of
wages. This the commission says, is
theoretically the correct principle,
but in order to secure a simpler ad-
ministration, the commission sug-
gests the adoption Of the New Jersey
plan for certain definite injuries.

A BIT o NOTHIN'


A town that never has any
thing TO do in a public way is on
the road to the cemetery. Any
citizen who will do nothing for
his town is helping to dig the
grave. A man that curses the
town furnishes the coffin. The
man who is so selfish as to have
no time from his business to give
to city affairs is making the
shroud. The man who will not
advertise is driving the hearse.
The man who is always pulling
back from any public enterprise
throws bouquets on the grave.
The man who is so stlngy as to
be bowling hard times breaches
the funeral sermon, sings the
doxology and thus the town lies
buried from all sorrow and care.

RESORTS IN READINESS
Summer Hostelries Preparing
for Influx of Summer Wis
itors---Brisk Trade Expect
ed This Season.

Summerresorts in Villas county
and throughout Northern Wis
consin IN general are busy pre-
pairing for the summer trade
which this year gives promise of
being unusually good owing to
the early spring and the absence
of any great national or world
event. Resort owners are i'm
proving their premises and pre-
pairing accommodations to take
care of the large influx of sum
mer visitors who make this north,
country their mecca every sum
mer. In MANY of these summer
hosteiries advance bookings of
large proportions have been made
and it is the belief among the
proprietors that the 1912 season
will be one of good business for
summer resorts both large and
small in this section Of the coun-
try.
The air of activity that the
town is taking on preparatory
to it's summer trade is becoming
noticeable and with the arrival
of city people who own summer
homes on the lakes the season
can be said to have started. Sew
eral who own summer cottages
have already arrived and ere the
next two weeks are gone
of those people who
spend their summers annually in
this glorious lake region will be
here.
The summer feeling is mutual
Judging from correspondence Of
city people who spend their vaca-
lions here. Summer, the one
best season in this famous coun-
try, has its allurements for all.

place to get back to nature and

Chippewa Tribe of Indians is
Gathering at Sugar Camp
This Week for Five Days
of Festivities.

All roads lead to Sugar Camp
(located between Eagle River and
Rhinelander) this week. That IS,
all roads wherein there is likely
to be found any of the Chippewa
tribe of Indians.
That tribe is congregating this
week at that traditional place
and there hold their annual
medicine dance for a period of
FIVE days. Yesterday a large
delegation from the Lac Vieux
Desert village passed through
Eagle River enroute for Sugar
Camp. Members of the tribe
from all directions are pouring in
and the dance gives promise OF
beng equal to any ever held by
the forefathers of these red men.
The high functionaries of the
tribe and the young and old
bucks decked out in their beaded
regalia will be there and squaws
trimmed out in gay col"red
calico and bright shawls will be
on hand to make the dance as
portentious an event asst was in
the DAYS when the white men
were unknown on this continent
The CIippewas have several
dances throughout the year,
The medicine dance, the sun
dance, the blueberrv dance and
the corn dance are among the
chief Of these Interesting festivals

LAZY LADY iii is READY
New Motor Boat Being Built
at Eagle River Boat Works
to Be Launched Soon----Is
Fully Equipped.

Lazy Lady III. the new motor
boat belonging to Mrs. Guy
Carlton Lee, is now nearly ready
to take the water and shows the
most complete equipment of any
boat on the lakes. The boat is
being built at the Eagle River
Boat Works and is % feet 9 in
ches in length with a beam meas
urement of 4 feet 10 inches. It is
finished in mahogany and fitted
with a ,foqr-cvllnder, two-cycle
Emerson engine The equipment
of this boat when finished, will
be superior to that of any other
craft on the water, it having a
self-starting device as well as a
forward and rear starter, a gas
oiine tank both fore and aft With
a pressure guage to insure an
evenly trimmed boat while in
motion, and a complete first class
marine clock The craft is under
entire wheel control The boat
is of the V-bottom model having
a high bow with concave sides
sloping away to a fiat stern
which is designed to ride the
water with a very small displace-
ment, thereby giving greatest
amount of speed for power in
stalled.
1t is not the wishes of the own
ner at this time to make known
the power that the motor is cap
able of developing but Judging
from the lines of the craft and its
general racy appearance many
conjectures have been made as to
the speed it will attain and pop
ular opinion is that it will sur
prise many. Guy Carlton Lee
will arrive within a week or ten
DAYS and at that time the boat
will be given it's trial trips to
prove the expectations of both
the owner and builder.
Work at the Eagle River Boat
has been going on briskly
the past winter in preparation
for the coming season and many
and several launches
have been built and are now held
in stock for quick delivery.
