Too Many Elections.
Another thing:

Another thing:
We are having a wasteful succession
of elections The primary is an expen-
sive monstrosity. 1t has utterly failed
to demonstrate single good reason for
it's continuance. On the other hand, it
has sadly wrecked interest in elections
as shown by the lessened vote since it
was instituted Has Wisconsin had bet
ter officials of late? Is it getting
stronger legislators, improved legisla-
ton?
What preposterous questions!
Look at our taxes for answer, or to
this riotous revolt over the whole com
monwealth! The primary should be
abolished. 1t is an exploded fad
Scrap it!
Then will the old-time interest be
taken in electoral matters and the peo-
pie of the state be saved tens of thou
sands of dollars in money, besides a
vast amount of time.
Then these annual municipal cleo
tons:
Junk them too!
The biennial settlement of municipal
questions is quite frequent enough to
serve every useful purpose great
would be the saving in consequence.
Added to the wanton surplusage of
elections already authorized, we now
have the recall.
Damn it also.
Our mistaken reformers would keep
us in a turmoil continuously unless
checked. When we get busy next win
terlat the duty of Strengthening out this
abused old state some radical attention
to the election laws will be in order,
coincident with reduction of appro-
priations, the curtailment of commits
sions and the return to the various
communities of the right to govern
themselves. I'LL.
OF all our evils tbs multiplicity of
elections is not the worst, nor yet is it
the least. There is great work ahead
for our bona fide reformers. Perhaps
restorers is more fitting name. Mad
ison Democrat.

Got to Go Deep to
 Cure Rheumatism
Liniments Help Locally, But the Disease is Way Down
 Inside.

To get at the source of rheumatic pains it requires the deep. searching in- fuence of S. &. s., the famous blood pur- lher. Rheumatism is primarily a blood disease that, since 1t ls in this vital fuid that rheumatic tendencies are carried, lodges ln the joints and muscles, there to irritate the nerves and produce pain. And in order Co drive out these pain in- dieting polsons 1t requires s. &, s. to sink deep Into the tiny glands imbedded in the innermost tissues. s. s. s. travels wherever the blood goes and never loses its medicinal influence This explains why lt overcomes the most chronic forms of rheumatism, why 1t dislodges those hard deposits that thicken the joints, for it acts as a solvent and assists the blood to pro vide in the tissdes those nsfpFal elements for which the body building process con unually craves and must have.
 If you have never used $. s. &. for rheumatism, get a bottle today of any druggist. Use it as directed and with some simple home helps you will soon dethrone the worst and most painful forms of rheumatism Write the medl- cal department.

.BULLARD'S REASONS
 FOR ASSIGNING JOB
Conflict of 0pinoin With Success sor and Offers of New Em-
 pIOyment Concerned.

PHOENIX. Dec. 2.-G. P Bullard. who has resigned as attorney gener- al of Arizona, effective December 6. sent the following letter to Governor Hunt who accepted the resignation and appointed Wiley Jones to fill out Bullard's term, which ends Dec ember 3l.
 Bullard's resignation reads:
 Nov 30, 1914 To His Excellency, the Governor of the State of Arizona,
 The Honorable Geo w. P. Hunt.
 Phoenix, Arizona
 Dear Sir: I desire to herewith ten der my resignation as attorney gen. eral of the State of Arizona, the same to take effect on the 5th day of Dec ember, 1914 My reasons for pre- senting this resignation are two-fold: First: l have been offered em- ployment which must be either ac- cepted or rejected at once, the ac- ceptance of which would, to some eX- tent, be incompatible with the duties of my office.
 Second Certain matters will arise before the first of the year which will largely come within the duties of my successor in office. l am very certain that his opinion and mine, as to the law relative to those matters differ and feel, therefore, such be ing the case, that it is only fair to him to tender my resignation, in or der that matters that pertain largely to his administration may be con trolled by him from now on.
 An early accpetance of this resig nation is desired Yours very truly
 c. P. BILLIARD.
 "I regret that MT Bullard feels he should resign before the conclusion of his term" said the governor. q accept his resignation in acordanc, with his wishes"
 The governor communicated today with Jones, who is now in TucsoI pursuing his duties as United Statei attorney Jones said he could tak' hold of the office at once if necessarl
 Jones becomes attorney general O the state Jan. l, having been elected to the office on the democratic ticke at the November election.
 Asked for a further statement O his resignation, Bullard said, 'I hay tseYeral employments in view amoni which are the attorneyships for couple of large corporations.
