ly criticiSing Governor McGOvern for
acting arbitrarily and not in good
faith in oismissing Ekern from office
on the ground of political activity
This report marked the close of two
days. investigation conducted by the
senate, McGovern declining to attend
this probe in person or by counsel for
the reason that he did not believe
the senate had jurisdiction to investi-
gate the case.
On the day following the action of
the senate in clearing Extern, Judge
E. Ray Stevens in the circuit court
of Dane county, announced his deci-
sion in the case brought by Ekern to
secure an injunction to restrain Gov
ernor McGovern from forcibly removing
him from office. When the first at
tack was made on Ekern's office this
court issued temporary restraining
order against the governor, but the
court declined to make this a pernla-
nent order
Both Sides Claim Victory.
While both sides claim victory as a
result OF the stand of the court, it is
apparent that Governor McGovern is
seriously considering another attac-
on the insurance department in order
to install Lewis A. Anderson, whom
he named as Ekern's successor The
senate refused to confirm the appoint
ment of Anderson, but McGovern i'm
mediately reappointed him and is as.
Stunning that his appointee is the lega'
commissioner
Ekern made such successful stan
against McGovern and Anderso-
when the first attack was made thu
it has been limited that the next timo
war is declared that the state militir
may be called upon to remove Ekerr
and install Anderson. This rumor
was given color because of a long con
ference between McGovern and AID
jutant General Boardman following
the decision of the court.
Governor McGovern and Anderson
maintain that under the decision of
the court the governor is no longer
under any legal restraint. John A.
Awkward, attorney for Ekern, how.
ever, has given an Interpretation to
the decision which amounts to a vic
tory for Ekern and removes the pos
sibility o. further assault upon the in
surance department Awkward says
that while the court ruled against
the permanent restraining order, it
pointed out that the governors power
in the matter ended with the removal
from Office of an official and that the
governor Is clothed with no authority

Offer their Services Free of Charge
For Positively the Last Time.
The United Doctors, licensed by the
State of Wisconsin, for the treatment
of deformities and all nervous and
chronic diseases of men, women and
children, offer to all who call on this
trip, consultation, examination, advice
free, making no charge whatever, eX-
cept the actual cost of medicine. All
that is asked in return for these valu-
able services is that every person
treated will state the result obtained to
their friends and thus prove to the
sick and afflicted in every city and To-
cality, that at last treatments have
been discovered that are reasonably
sure and certain in their effect.
These doctors are considered by many
former patients among Americas lead
ing stomach and nerve specialists and
are experts in the treatment of chronic
diseases and so great and wonderful
have been their results that in many
cases it is hard indeed to find the di-
viding line between skill and miracle.
Diseases of the stomach, intestines,
liver, blood, skin, nerves, heart, spleen,
kidneys, or bladder, rheumatism, sciat-
ca, diabetes, bed-wetting, leg ulcers,
weak lungs and those afflicted with
long-standing, deep-seated, chronic dis
eases, that have baff1ed the skill of the
family physicians, should not fail to
call.
According to their system no more
operations for appendicitis, gall stones,
tumors, goiter, piles, etc. By their
method these diseases are treated with
out operation or hypodermic injection.
They were among the first in Amer
lea to earn the name of 'sBloodless
Surgeons, by doing away with the
knife, with blood and with all pain in
the successful treatment of these dan
gerous diseases.
If you have kidney or bladder troubles
bring a two ounce bottle of your urine
for chemical analysis and microscopic
examination.
Deafness often has been cured in so
days.
No matter what your ailment may
be, no matter what others may have
told you, no matter what experience
you may have had with other physi-
clans, it will be to your advantage to
see them at once. Have it forever set
tied in your mind. If your case is in
durable they will give you such advice
as may relieve and stay the disease.
Do not put off this duty you owe your
self or friends or relatives who are
suffering because Of your sickness, as
visit at this time may help you.

Special Milk Train.

1t is reported that special milk
train service will soon be established
on this division between Milwaukee
and Milton Junction. This train will
leave Milwaukee early in the morning,
and go on to Milton where it will turn
around on the ''Y" and go back, pick
ing up ali the milk shipments in to Mil
waukee.
The old milk train will be devoted
exclusively to passenger service here
after and will leave GAINESVILLE about z
and arrive in Milwaukee about 9. The
new milk train will have the old sched-
ule and follow behind the passenger.
With one train to handle the milk it
will mean improved passenger service
in and out of Milwaukee over this di-
vision, for as the management now is,
nearly every train has some part in the
milk service and is slowed up in conse-
quence.

She's Not Getting a Square Deal.

The papers and the very air are full
nowadays of talk on the rights of
women-her right to vote, to hold Of
flee and become President of the United
States if she wants to, and enough vot-
ers to elect her agree with her. But
why go out of the home to discover
rights which women should enjoy, and
do not? We think women should have
just as up-to-date equipment in her
home as her husband, son or brother
has in his office, workshop or on his
farm. Just take look into many of
the kitchens in the country and look at
the dilapidated and out-of-date stoves
and ranges many wife and mother is
cooking three square meals day on
and she manages to cook good meals,
too. But just think how much hard
work it would save her and how much
better meals she might cook if she had
one of the modern ranges of the day,
to say nothing of the saving in fuel.
Wives and mothers take hubby or
father down to P. M. Ellingson's store
