Coming down 20 the matter Of state
aid Bishop outlined what was exactly
meant BY this method.
The money is raised by state bonds
and Is expected through a state de-
partment The roads are classified
into three kinds-state roads, county
roads and town roads The engineers
In the state department plan and build
the main thoroughfares of the state
at no cost to the counties. These
roads are such as connect the centers

With the county roads the state
builds them and the pavement is made
partly from the state funds and partIy
from the county. The latter's share
Is based on the assessed valuation.

control over the streets Of the cities

A Talented Singer

Leon Rice of the Trinity Chap
ell, New York, sang several vocal
selections at the Methodist
church in this city Tuesday
evening. Mr., Rice is one of the
very best tenor singers that has
ever visited this city and his
songs were greatly enjoyed by
those present. Mr.. Rice has
the distinction of being the
highest salaried church singer
in the United States. Houston,
Texas, recently took him away
from the Trinity church choir,
paying him at the rate of $3.50
per Sunday.

Lectured Here

On Monday and Tuesday of
last week the children in all the
schools of the city, heard with
greatest interest the message
brought them by DR.. Williams OF
the Anti Tuberculosis Assocla-
tion.
Teachers and pupils were alike
impressed by Doctor Williams
straight forward manner OF
stating conditions and remedies
as we'll as her personal clearness
of manner.
Words are too few to express
the good which the association
is doing throughout the state,
and the inspirations of such
splendid characters as DR..
Williams but we all realize that
it is to our advantage and well
fare to hear the truth spoken in
this way.
DR.. Williams was enabled to
come to Washburn from the fact
that the sale of Xmas. stamps
was so large last year in the city.
She will come to Washburn
again during the year If the
school children are able to sell
enough stamps to pay her
expenses to this section. In
case of her return DR.. Williams
will give her series of lectures
on the morals to women and
mothers.

Is Greeted by Large and
Ent husiastic Audience.
Talks on Issues.

The first Republican rally of the
present campaign was held at the
Opera House in this city this morn
ing when U. S. Senator Robert NJ =.
LaFollette delivered political ad-
dress in behalf of the republican state
ticket. The address was delivered
at 1880 o'clock this morning and al
though it was poor hour for people
to get away from their work, yet the
Opera House was we'll crowded.
In his address Mr.. LaFollette advO-
Gated the election of the entire state
republican ticket. In referring to
McGovern and Karel, the candidates
for Governor on the republican and
democratic tickets, Mr.. LaFollette
said that the people should have no
difficulty in choosing. He said it is
plainly choice between progress and
reaction, between general interest and
special interest. He said that Nc
Govern stood on a platform in keep
ing with the principles upon which
true representative government was
founded, and pledged their further
extension toward a complete political
educational and industrial democracy.
He said that in the past Mr.. Nc
Govern had lived up to his platform
pledges and that he would carry out
his present platform pledges. He
said that Karel, the democratic
candidate, stood on a platform which
is in reputation of the leadership OF
w. j. Bryan and Woodrow Wilson,
and that he was backed by the re-
dictionaries of both parties. He
endeavored to show the stand taken
by Karel on progressive Legislation
before the state legislature, and said
that he was opposed to erything
that was progressive. He showed
up the vote of Karel on these
measures and told his audience where
they could find his vote in the journal
record.
He said that with the election OF
Karel all progressive legislation
would be ditched while with the
election of McGovern the good work
started by the Progressives years ago

Under Auspices of Congre-
gational Mems Club
Is Fir st Number of Lecture
Course at the Congrega-
tiOnal Church

The seal of the University of Wis
consin upon an entertainment course
| is something entirely new but it is
surely guarantee that it is. first class.
The Extension division has made
search for the most popular and sue
cessful talent in the country and by
conining it's dates to this state is able
to bring to the smaller cities lectures
and concerts which would otherwise
be practically beyond their reach on
account of the heavy expense. The
Mems club was fortunate in being
able early in the season to make ar
rangements for the best course
offered by the university. 1t includes
concerts and recitals and especially a
dramatic monolog, Lincoln, by the
great actor, Benjamin Chaplain, which
all of those who knew Lincoln con-
slider wonderful. There are six num-
bers.
A lecture, Toward the Heights,
by Prof. Rollo Lyman of the depart
ment of oratory opens the course
next Friday, Nov. l, at the Congre-
gational church. One comment reads
"Mr. Lyman's S success with our audi
ence was as big if not bigger than
that of any concert or musical attrac-
ton ever presented to- the public.
1t is a popular address enlivened
with stories, lfcdntes, and concrete
illustrations intended to show what
real success in life means. The
dignity of the humblest kindof labor,
the great satisfaction of performing
services that are indispensable, the
Joy of doing well each task that lies
at hand. the satisfaction of dignified
labor and purposeful leisure--these
are some of the topics covered.

would be carried on to success.

w
At the opening of his address he
talked on woman suffrage and asked
the voters to vote on the question.
He then discussed national politics at
some length. He said that Taft was
untrue to the principals upon which
he had been elected, especially as to
tariff revision and that instead of re-
vising the tariff downward he has
assisted in raising the tariff Oh the
necessities of life until the burden
had become one that the people could
no longer bear. He said that he
could not support Taft. Referring to
Roosevelt the Senator said that it
was hard job to follow him and
that there was doubts if he would
carry out his promises. He said that
Roosevelt had played into the hands
of the trusts and that the trusts had
grown under his administration until
they were now difficult to handle.
Referring to Wilson LaFollette said
that he had made an excellent record
during his two year term as governor
of New Jersey as a progressive, but
followed up by saying that he had
some experience with two year old
progressives He did say, however,
that if Wilson was elected and tried
to carry out his progressive ideas that
the little band of Progressive Re-
publicans in Congress would aid in
helping solve the big problems in the
interest of the people.
He did not attempt to advise one
how to vote, but asked that each vot-
er study the problems and cast his
ballot where he thought it would do
the most good during the next four
years.
The Senator's voice was in poor
condition due to being overtaxed
during his present speaking tour, but
the audience listened attentively to
his remarks and applauded him often.
Immediately following the address
Senator LaFollette left for Ashland
where he spoke at 1880 o'clock.

May get Returns

Arrangements are being made
by several interested persons in
the city to get election returns
here on November 5th. The
expense of getting the returns
amounts to considerable and
those interested should see to it
that they help subscribe to de-
fray the expenses. The returns
this year will be rather interest
ing on account of the three

Were Royalty Entertained by
the u. S. Government
Took in Big Naval Para de
and Spent Three Days
Aboard Battleship

The members of the Washburn
Naval Division who took the tri p to
New York and took part in the big
gest Naval parade that has ever been
held in the history of the country,
returned last Saturday evening from
their trip and all were highly pleased
with the way they were used while
away.
The boys, eleven in number, were
taken to New York at the expense of
the Government. The trip from
Ashland to the coast was made in
special coaches provided by the
government. After arriving at Jer-
sey City the boys were taken aboard
the Battleship Iowa where they were
stationed for three days, but all were
given thirty hours of shore leave in
New York which gave them ample
time to take in the sights in the
greatest city in the United States.
The boys took part in the big Naval
parade in New York and were then
taken to Philadeldhia where they
boarded the cars for the return trip
home.
1t was a great trip and one thai
will be remembered by the boys.
