Governor Wilson on Tuesday swept
rhe country with the largest electoral
vote ever given a candidate for presi-
lent. He is at this time sure of having
1857 votes in the electoral college,
which will likely be added to from
states tat are still in doubt. Taft gets
but ~ votes in the electoral college
and Roosevelt receives III. That the
democrats would win this year has been
a foregone conclusion for at least two
years, but with the splendid work
done at Baltimore, there was no more
room for doubt. TIE republicans. at
Chicago refused to give the people what
they wanted. The democratic repre-
sentatives at Baltimore, headed by that
mighty warrior, William Jennings
Bryan, triumphed for the people and
gave them hope and encouragement.
They believed that the democrats
nominated man in Governor Wilson
worthy Of their support and suffrage,
and with all the Misrepresentation and
false prophecy, they stood steadfast
, and elected one whom they have no
doubt Will give them "square deal. "
IF there had been no Progressive party,
anyone looking at the returns would
admit that the results would have
been the same. The nation as a whole
was tired of the inaction of the re-
publican party on matters Of reform,
and naturally went to the party which
showed by it's work in congress, and
Through the action Of it's democratic
governors, that it was with the
people. Governor Wilson will make as
good a president as he has been gov
rernor Of New Jersey and that means
much. The house is heavily democratic
and the senate is also likely to be
democratic.
The people are to be congratulated.
The democracy Of Minnesota is to be
congratulated, whose representatives
at Baltimore stood as stone wall for
Wilson, and were responsible to a
great degree for his nomination. Their
motto was "Wilson and Win.'

The large vote given to the demo-
cratic candidates for representative in
this district is a surprise to the many
who had supposed that a republican
nomination meant election. While
Mr.. Gravel did not get the vote that
Vasaly did, he made splendid show
ing. For democrat to be elected in
this legislative district is to overcome
a republican majority Of 400 or 1900.
The district has had but two or three
representatives who were democrats,
but with the election of Vasaly, he
will be the first democrat from Nor
rison county to be elected representa-
tive since 1874, when Moses E. LaFond
represented this county.

Some folks would really have you
oe]1eve that the country will go to the
Elemnition bow-wows since Wilson was
elected: That was pretty punk argu-
ment before election, but it ought to
now be on the shelf with the remnants
at the republican party.

SELECT CULLINGS
Turpentine as an AntiSeptic.

One of the most famous surgeons in
New York writes, apropOs of discus
sion about the safety of carbolic acid,
bichlOride of mercury and other violent
poisons as antiseptics. that one of the
best and certainly the safest things for
the layman to use on wounds is turpen-
tine. He is DR.. Morris Stark, assistant
attending surgeon at Bellevue hospital
and lecturer on surgical dressing to the
training school of the French hospital.
His words are as follows:
Ordinary turpentine. if rubbed into
a wound which has not bled properly,
provided the wound seems to have gone
through the skin, will not only act as
most powerful germicide, but will
start bleeding, a most desirable fea-
ture when a wound is first received.
When free bleeding has begun the tur-
pentine should be washed away with a
little alcohol. This is an absolutely
safe procedure The wound is then
dressed with any mild antiSeptic, such
as bOric acid or ordinary salt solution,
and kept moist with this sOlutiOn."-

Just because John d. Rockefeller has
made more money than he can count
without the aid of nineteen clerks and
forty adding machines, not to mention
a well trained corps of coupon clip
pers, there are many people who come
forward these days with stories to
show that John, now famous for his

the cutest person that ever happened
when it came to financial strategy.
According to this latest narrative,
Rockefeller told a close friend-and

Dancer of Distilled Water.

Continued use of distilled water re-
duces the strength of the physical or
ganism. because, while distilled water
is chemically pure and free from germs,
1t contains nothing but oxygen and n.y.

salts are left behind during the process
of distillatiOn. AS long as life persists
in the body the elimination Of mineral
salts goes on. and this means the rapid
Standardization of the organism. De-
naturalization predispOses the system

of the French navy are attributed to

tect the men from the bad hygienic
