A Visit to Richard Croker.

Several oldtime Tammanyites crossed
the Atlantic recently, and after a few
days in London paid a visit to Richard
Croker OF his Irish estate. They greatly
enjoyed their stay. The old chief showed
them over his place. and leisurely through
the stables. He talked horse to them,
Ireland 10 them. old days in New York
TO them, but never a word about present
day American politics. or Tammany's
present plight unier the Murphy leader
TIE meeting.
1t must have taxed both them and him
10 steer clear of the subject When in
doubt play trumps. In Tammany circles
the rule long has been, when in doubt
consult Mr.. Croker. He has had a power
full vogue. His friends have hailed him
as wise and faithful, and when he gave
up his place at the head of the orgauiza-
ton they sorrowsd. Not day has passed
since that they have not wished him
back.
II these travellers had confessed that
their object in visiting Ireland was to
get an opinion from Mr.. Croker about
existing political conditions in New York.
with View Of shaping their course &C
cording to his suggestions. there would
have been no surprise. For not only are
those conditions alarming to the demo-
Gratis. but Mr.. Croker would appear to
be exceptionally well qualified to assist
in relieving the situation.
He has always been a friend OF Gov.
Sulzer. The bright and energetic young
lawyer with a taste and capacity for pol
tiles early attracted Mr.. Croker's atten-
tion- He sent him to the legislature. He
supported him for speaker. He supported
him later for Congress, and helped to
continue him in the House for many
years.
Now the democratic difficulty in New
YORK grows out of the break between Gov.
sulzer and the organization All efforts

Tangled Lives.

Oh. Bull's-Eye Bill was q burglar bold
Who never did what he was told.
He smoked and chewed and swore and
drank
And his greatest pleasure was to rob a
bank.
Miss Susan Slosh was a suffragette,
A militant Of the ultra set.
Shed burn q castle or she'd wreck a
train
Or heave brick-bats through a window
pane.
When Bull s-Eye Bill and Susan wed
Twas a very fine match, the neighbors
said.
But Bill got blue cause his wife would
roam.
She'd rather go to prison than remain at
home.
The tears would course down his cheeks
so pale
AS he begged her to please come out on
bail.
"A jail's all right for man." says he,
but 1t amt no place for woman to be-
So they disagreed an their ways they
went.
She gets locked up to her hearts content.
And Bill gets to cussin' now and then
Bout women usurpin' the sphere of men.

Our dollars come hard enough to
most Of us to make us interested
in anything which will tend to give
them greater purchasing power.
And so our readers will appreciate
our repetition of the same idea in
these talks on advertising when
we call attention again to the daily
possibilities for economy and saw
ing offered by careful and intelii-
gent buying of the year-in, year
out things that all of us must buy.
Clothes, food. recreation-an are
better bought, more intelligently
bought, more economically bought

buy, it makes all the difference in
the world who spends the dollar.

COUNTY BOARD

The County Board adjourned on
Saturday at noon after being in ses-
sion nearly two weeks. The bulk
of the work done the last few days
was the reading and adopting of re-
ports of the various committees.
The matter of settling up with
Highway Commissioner S. S. Crown
hart, for the year of 1912, which has
been hanging fire since the last ses-
sion of the board, was finally clear
ed up Saturday morning in way
that was evidently satisfactory to
all concerned.
The local c. A. r. and w. Z. G.
have been a2itating the building
of monument in honor of the old
soldiers on the Court House grounds
for some time past and the follow
ing resolution presented by Super
visor G. w. Chinook of River Falls
was adopted:
RESOLVED, That the question
of soldiers monument to be
erected on t h Court House
grounds be submitted to vote
of the people of Pierce county
at the general election of 1914
RESOLVED FURTHER, That a
committee of three be oppoint-
ed by the County Board to in
vestigate with a committee of the
G. A. r. and w. R. G.. the cost
of a suitable monument for the
above mentioned purpose and
report at the next annual ses-
sion of the board, providing the
vote favoring the monument is
carried.
PROVIDED FURTHER, That the
cost of said monument does not
exceed one fourth of a mill on
the dollar on the taxable proper
ty of the county,
According to the above resolution
the cost of the monument will be
in the neighborhood of $4,000. The
committee appointed to act in con-
junction with the @. A. R. and w.
R. c. were Supervisors n. B. Brown
of Ellsworth, M. Jennings of Mar
tell and G. E. Pratt of River Falls
