Cotey was born in Grand Rapids in
1863, in a house that was located

ever since. He is employed there as

He and his wife are delighted over
the many valuable improvements they
notice on every hand here. Changes

HERE is GOOD NEWS
FOR STOMACH VICTIMS

Some very remarkable results are
being obtained by treating stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles with
pure vegetable oils, which exert a
cleansing, soothing and purifying ac-
ton upon the lower bowels, remov-
ing the distractions of poisonous
facial matter and gases and prevent
ing their absorption by the blood.
This done, the food is allowed free
passage from the stomach, fermenta-
ton ceases and stomach troubles
quickly disappear.
George H. Mayr, for twenty years
a leading Chicago druggist, cured
himself and many of his friends OF
stomach, liver and intestinal troubles
of years standing by this treatment,
and so successful was the remedy he
devised that it has since been plac-
ed in the hands of druggists all ov-
er the country, who have sold thou
sands of bottles.
Though absolutely harmless, the Ell
feet of the medicine sufficient to
convince any one of it's remarkable
effectiveness and within "a hours
the sufferer feels like a new person.

edy is now sold here by Otto's Phar-

have both been decisiyely defeated.
The result Of course, is due in
part to dissatisfaction over high tax
es and to a feeling that Wisconsin
has been travelling too rapidly, but
despite these conditions the LaFol-
Iette Republicans might have won
had it not been for the grotesquely
poor leadership, the petty, narrow
spirit and the selfish scheming with
which the movement has been ours
ed in this particular year Of grace.
Senator LaFOllette has not been
able to visit the state and he has
lacked the direct contact with the
situation. Those who are supposed to
act for him, or at least those who
have assumed to act in his name,
have proved that they were utterly
incompetent to meet the emergency
that existed.
At a time when it was certain that
the Tory Republicans would put a
gubernaaorial candidate in the field
and give him their solid support,
and when there were already four
candidates to divide the Progressive
/ Republican vote these little bosses
made matters still worse by trotting
out A. H. Dahl, a man of mediocre
ability, as a candidate for governor.
| Their perspicacity, or rather their
lack of it, is illustrated by the
fact that they imagined that the
Tory candidate would stand no
show whatever and that Merlin E.
Hull was the man whose candidacy
was to be feared. Now Mr. Phillip
seems to have won the nomination
by a decisive vote and Mr.. Hull is
apparently poor fourth in the race
Great indeed is the mistake that
these little bosses have made. Great
indeed is their responsibility for the
disaster which has overwhelmed a
movement that has meant and
wrought much for the people Of Wis
consin.- Milwaukee journal.
The Milwaukee Journal expresses
our feelings exactly in the above
editorial. Some men cant see
through a ladder without being hit
on the head first Perhaps they will
live and learn if they are hit often
enough.

"sEE AMERICA FIRST"

One of the favorable by4products
of the war in Europe will be the
diversion of the American tourist
travel. From an economic viewpoint
this current has always been a heavy
loss. 1t is always admitted to draw
hundreds OF millions of dollars away
from this country.
On August list Europe practically
closed up her hotels and railways,
and went into the killing business.
A good many curiosity seekers may
go abroad next summer, much aus a
crowd of ghOuls assemblies wherever
there is a railroad wreck or boiler
explosion. But others are likely TO
find Europe in turmoil for years. 1t
is a time which everyone with the
money and leisure to travel may
well take to familiarize himself with
the wonders of his own land.
The war ought to give every A.
merican a renewed respect for his
fatherland While the powers of Eu-
rope have been loading themselves up
with the barbarous implements OF
wholesale murder, America has been
making better highways, lighting its
cities, removing disease by sanitation
and improving it's farm methods.
While Europe will now be destroy
! ing many matchless relics of it's ven
cradle past, America has been erect
| ing churches and monuments, paint
ing pictures and carving statutes.
Much of this work has been crude,
but much of it is very wonderful.
While foreign powers are working off
the cruel fevers of barbarism, let
lis here at home value at it's true
worth all that our own builders and
painters and sculptors have done.
There ought to be now in every
American heart a greater affection
for his own land. 1t should stand
for him as the land of peace, as the
| land where love and science and la
Dor are the ideals, not blood and
iron. Let him then, until Europe re
penis of lis follies and insanities see
what God and the hand of man have
done for his own soil

very little consolation out of the re-
turns. While the vote was light, the
results indicate that the 4th term
ers have a hard fight before them
to secure the election. If they win
there must be excellent work done
all along the line and they will need
the help of every vote that Was cast
against them at the primary. If one
third of them should vote for the
Democratic candidates it would de-
feat them at the polls. We append
the result in each town for each
candidate in the county as follows:

PRIMARIES OVER LET'S LOOK
AFTER COUNTY INTERESTS

The primary election is out of the
way. The results are pretty we'll
known by this time. The campaign
has been bitterly contested and the
returns have naturally brought some
disappointment and perhaps some
surprises they usually do.
However, while people do disagree
on public issues and on candidates
for public office, there should be no
disagreement in the matter of com
munity interests. The people of
Grand Rapids, irrespective of party
lines are in harmony on the propo-
Sition to make Grand Rapids one of
the best and busiest cities in Wis

Money invested judiciously in roads
adds so much to the value of the
property in a community that every
dollar invested comes back TO the
treasury in the form Of additional
taxation. Good roads attract new set
tiers, encourage improvement and
enrich community. They bring in
more people to help pay taxes, and
reduce that rate OF taxation while
increasing the aggregate amount col
Iected Money paid merely for salar-
les of officers of dead and non
progressive county organization new
er comes back in any form. Good
roads are the arteries Of trade, the
promoters of value and the basis
of prosperity.
