Republican Candidate For Cover
nor Is The Only Hope For
Wisconsin People.

Z. l.. Philip, republican candidate
for governor has made such big gains
that his election is practically assured
according to leading politicians. His
candidacy is practical and his platform
sound. There is little hope In the demo-
Gratis and the progressive republicans are
exceedingly unpopular. The national
democratic administration has by the
Underwood Tariff put five million men
out OF work and caused loss of three
billions of dollars annually to business.
Shops are closed and times look very de-
pressing. The democrats promised to re-
duce the high cost of living but it has
increased instead. The votes for repub-
llcans means good times and prosperity.

a Science and Art.
Agriculture was science and an
art, and in its scope it induced per-
manency, independence, the Joy and
satisfaction of being producer and
the mental and moral uplift Of COM
muning with nature. God made the
farmer, all other professions we're of
but secondary nature. Without the
farmer all business ceased.
Minnesota was favored state. It
had season, seed and soil and it ask
ed for more farmers Too long had
there been associated in the common
mind the idea that agriculture was
inferior in it's relations to the pro-
fessions That view had affected the
social, political and economic rela-
tions. 1t had caused people to con-
gregate in cities while labor was
scarce on the farm. But times were
changing The attitude that farm
ing was the resource for man who
had failed at everything else, was
being disproved. Never book
would have been written or school
house built had there not in the first
place been the farm to furnish the
| foundation.

With the score in matches standing
two to one in favor of the challengers,
Williams was plainly when he
took the court with Brookes shortly
many Davis cup battles, was calm and
determined and showed clearly in his
opening shots that he did not intend to
give his opponent the slightest advan-
tage which he did not earn.
Brookes' strokes and tactics did
nothing to allay the nervousness Of
Williams, and as a result the l~atter's
efforts to hold his opponent in check
during the first two sets were p~itifully
weak. He made a game rally In the
third set, giving a splendid exhibition
of the game he is capable of at all
times. 1t was his final rally, however.

court boundaries or into the net, quick
