GOVERNOR O'NEAL GOES ID MILWAUKEE. Will Attend Meeting of the
 American Bar
  LATER GOES TO MAINE O'Neal Will Deliver Four Addresses in Interest of Democratic Cam
 paign in Maine-May Take
 Stump for Wilson Later
LATER GOES TO MAINE

Montgomery, August 24-(special.)- Governor O'Neal left Montgomery tonight for Milwaukee, where he will attend the meeting of the American Bar association, which convenes in annual session in that city on August q. The governor was ac- compenied. by Judge John Pelham, asso- ciate justice9o of the Alabama court of ap- peals and former president of the State Bar association.
 Four Speeches in Maine
 Following the session of the bar asso- citation, Governor ONeal will go to Lew ston, Me, in which state he has four en- agreements to speak in the interest of the democratic campaign in that state,
 His first engagement will be in Cum berland county, where he will speak on September 2. On the 3d the gov ernor will speak at Livermore Falls, at Lisbon Falls on the 4th. and at Bath on the 9th.
 The governor will return to Alabama as soon as he finishes his speaking tour in Maine. and will probably reach Montgomery on the 7th or Sth of Sep tember, after an absence from the state of little more than two weeks.
 Later on in the fall the governor will probably speak in other states, as he has signi6ed his willingness to Gov ernor Wilson to assist him In his cam paign in whatever state the democratic nominee's campaign managers may designate.
 The appointment to the supreme court vacancy will not be made until after the governors return from Maine inasmuch as it has been learned that there is no immediate. necessity for that office to be filled within the near future. Judge Simpson had finished practically all of his work before his death, which eliminates the necessity of an immediate appointment of hIs successor.
 Governor Reticent
 Regarding the appointment to the su- preme court vacancy, Governor O'Neal has maintained an extreme reticence. To each and every inquiry, the governor has replied that he is undecided as to whom he will appoint, at the same time declaring that he will name the best man available for the office. Just when the governor will find this man, or when he will give his name to the public, is mat ter of conjecture, though it is regarded as certain that the office will be filled shortly after the governors return from the north.

Important Church Conference.

On the site of the first Norwegian
Lutheran service ever held in America,
an interesting and significant confer
ence was held at the West Koshkonong
Synod church in the town of Pleasant
Springs, August Is and 16. Nearby
stands the historic oak under which
that service was held and which, for
that reason, is an object of great inter
est to the Norwegians who have lived
and now live in the vicinity.
The conference is the outgrowth of
the agreement reached last winter by
Joint committee of the United Norwe
gian Lutheran and the Synod Lutheran
churches on points of doctrine. It is
one of series of such gatherings which
are being held throughout the north
west to discuss the matters which were
settled by that important meeting held
at Madison last winter.
The meeting was arranged by Rev.
Weise and his congregation and an in
vitation was sent to the Lutheran min
listers of the different denominations
and their congregations. The subject
taken up for discussion was "Faith.
There were fifteen ministers and pro-
fessors that took part in the discussion.
The church was crowded both days.
The young peoples society served
lunch in the basement; the first day
they served $50 lunches and the second
day 300. At the close of the meeting
it was decided to continue with these
meetings and committee of three was
elected to make arrangements for the
next meeting.
The old original octagonal church
which was built by the pioneer Luther
ans and in which the Rev. ]. C. w.
Dietrichson conducted the first service
was RACED several years ago to make
room for the splendid new church which
is one of the finest in the state.
1t was in the old church that one of
the fiercest and most protracted legal
struggles had its inception. This
schism resulted in division of the two
branches the Synod and the United
Lutheran. The struggle was begun
over the possession and division of the
valuable church property there and it
dragged through the courts for years
one of the most interesting denomina-
tional fights that has ever taken place
in recent years.

increasing business are bound in time
and far ahead of actual necessities to
look out for an ample provision of their
raw material no matter at what sac
rifice of price. But no such situation
presses on the average leaf dealer who
caters to the smaller trade. 1t is of
far greater and more important con-
Germ to him to be informed and to know
whether his customers will need a
larger supply or any supply at all which
is ever becoming more uncertain with
the continued retrogression of our CT
gar industry traceable and visible for
the most part only in medium class and
smaller manufacturers. Another cause
of anxiety has arisen for the leaf mar
ket in the reported brisk buying at
greatly advanced figures of the new
Havana crops and the revised and now
more accurate estimates of the yield
which seems to be nearly cut down one
third all round If the yield is actu-
ally as short as reported in every type
of the Havana crop the rapid advance
of price and the rush of buyers would
cause no surprise However, with
everything else in sight going up in

exception. 1t is only the poor cigar
which is chained to stand-pat price,
and it is therefore logically sharing in
the decay of all stand-patism. journal.

LET'S see how good you are at fig

phlet from information furnished by
Lewis E. Gettle" he was principal of
high schools ten years; library clerk in
state superintendent office four years;
six years special counsel for the dairy
and food commissioner; circuit court
commissioner for six years; then twelve
years member of the county board,
and finally two years a member of the
legislature. Leave out of the reckon
ing the year he was city attorney and
member of the school board = that
makes just forty years, doesn't it?
Whew! Drawing public money for forty
years is going some, isn't it? No won
der it has become fixed habit with

The Fennimore Times, whose editor
was twice member of the legislature
from Grant county and is at the pres
ent time, unopposed on the republican
ticket for return to that body, has
the following caustic remark in late
issue of that paper: 'The creation of
new offices goes merrily on. When no
others can be thought of the favorite
plan is to create some new Inspector of
some kind. The latest is an official in
spector of pharmacies, or in common
parlance, drug stores. This is getting
to be great inquisitorial age. Every
body and everything must be inspected
and officially pronounced 0. K, the
people of course pay the freight If
anyone has soft snap it is these 'in-
spectors.' They travel up and down
the state, stop at the best hotels, have
good time, draw nice fat salary and
what work they do could all be con-
densed into cipher with the rim
knocked off. The people ought to give
the whole outfit swift kick in the
vicinity of the seat of the tronsers and
make them earn an honest living; work
up little perspiration in the hay or
harvest field, for instance"

LANCASTER. PA. Aug. IA.

LANCASTER, Pa, Aug. IA, 1912.
The great hail storm which visited
Lancaster county last week proved far
more disastrous to our tobacco grow
ers than was at first supposed, and a
very conservative estimate places the
loss in the number of acres destroyed,
or so badly damaged as to be of little
practical value, at about $4,000 cases.
Scores of fields were literally wiped out
of existence.
A prominent tobacco man hit the nail
on the head when he said to the writer:
''It sounds selfish to say it, but it is a
fact that our packers would care little
if the whole crop was wiped out. We
don't wish harm to the growers, of
course, but we look at the matter from
practical standpoint. Nobody can tell
how much 1909 goods are still held by
our packers, but place the amount at
80, 900 cases. These are goods that
have been literally eating themselves
up, and every original packer of that
crop is a loser, no matter if he could
sell out tomorrow.
