PRONOUNCING ENGLISH.
Going Astray on the Correct Use OF
aun and new' Sounds.

Going Astray on the Correct Use OF
"us and "ew' Sounds.
a curious feature Of the English Ian
guage as it is spoken in this part OF
the United States is the prevalence OF
dual system Of pronunciation. The
dictionaries tell US unequivocally that
we should pronounce "dew," "knew"
and "stew" as we do "few,"' and that
student" stupid" and similar words
should be enunciated as If they were
spelled "steudent" and Stupid"
Nobody, apparently, disputes the cor
rectness of this manner Of prenounc-
ing 'u" and ''ew"-yet here Is rule
very much more honored in the breach
than in the observance. Except for
stage folks, the faculties and some Of
the students Of schools and colleges
and few persons who make a point OF
precise speaking, the academic sound
Of gu" is disregarded almost univer-
sally.
1t is by no means through ignorance
that people say "stoo" and "stoop1d.'
There are worthy persons who seem
to feel that good American really
ought to say "stoo" and "stoopid."
They think, apparently, that the ortho-
dox s'u" and "ew" are Anglicisms and
| are used in this country only by per-
| sons pedantic or affected"
OF course, for all practical purposes
one way of pronouncing Is as good as
another and usage has made both
forms correct. Nevertheless, the right
use Of "u" and "ew" adds music and
variety to the English language, and
the younger generation might do well
to pronounce according to the diction-
ary and gradually overcome an "Amer-
icanism" that has no real good excuse
for being.-Rochester Democrat and
Chronicle

CHlROPRACTORS HOLD
BIG SUMMER MEETING

DR.. G. NJ Otto, Wausau's chiro-
practor, returned home Tuesday from
Ashland, where the two weeks pre-
vious had the pleasure of attend
ing the summer meeting of doctors
OF his profession followed by a chau-
tauqua The meeting was one of
great benefit and was fairly well rep
resented from all over the state. The
next meeting will be held in Madison
next winter.
Mr.. Otto is president of the asso--
citation which has a large following
among the profession in the state.
At the Ashland meeting a bill was
formulated to be presented to the
next legislature Iegalizing the chiro-
practCr profession and asking for
the granting of state licenses. Sena-
tor Tompkins, of Ashland, one of
the speakers at the convention, stat
ed that if the chiropractors pres
ent to the legislature a bill that was
fair and equitable that he would
champion the same, as he could see
no reason why their profession, ,shoul
not receive the same legal recogni-
ton as the oSteopath. A feature Of

The author of the above article
refers in the third paragraph to
matter that has reference to what
VIE would do if we had a good fore
man. 1t is our policy to keep good
men ais long as we can in any de-
partment of our office; but a pri-
vate business cannot be compared
with a public business that is run
by a political party. The two condi-
tions are wholly different in my
business [ have absolute control and
dictation. In the county business, the
people dictate by electing a set of
officers to discharge the respective
duties of their positions. Both poll
tical parties have established a com
mon rule that two terms is enough
for any public officer elected by the
people. Both parties overstep this
rule occasionally, where officers are
exceptionally efficient in the dis
charge of their work. We know it
is good policy on the part of any
Individual company or corporation, to
keep good and efficient help as long
as it is possible to retain them.
In County, State and National busi-
ness, the honors are distributed a.
mong all men.
While we agree in some respects
with the above article, we disagree
with them in the matter of parties
discharging public duties by the cleo
ton of members of their party, to
public positions Our present corps
of county officers have been very
efficient and painstaking in the dis
charge of their work for the past
six years and they will probably con-
tinue to do so if the people reelect
them. That is no argument, that
there are not many other men who
could fill their positions equally as
well, and possibly better; but they
certainly never can have an oppor--
tunity if the political parties con-
tinue to keep the same men in Of
flee all their lives. Our position is
simply this: That the Continual re-
election of the same officers viii de-
feat tne Party if continued much
longer than two terms This is the
political history of Parties in Wood
county in the past.

MORRIS AND
M'GOvERN

We quote from the Wonewoc Re-
porter under date of June Il:
Two years ago the Reporter told
it's readers that there would be plen-
ty of time in the future to properly
reward Francis E. McGovern for his
peculiar actions at the Chicago con
vention, when as an instructed dele
gate for LaFollette he found it
convenient to ignore his instructions
and. vote for the Big Bull Moose.
Since that time he has earned addi-
tional reward trying to GUST Her
man Ekern, the best insurance COM
missioner Wisconsin ever had, and
to kick him out without reasonable
opportunity to defend himself. The
time for McGovern's reward is near
at hand.
The governor is a candidate for
senator to succeed Isaac Stephenson.
Although a professed bull moose, he
chooses to make his campaign under
the republican banner the chances
for victory being brighter. His lead
ing opponent, is Tom Morris, La
Crosse, a man respected by his enc
mics and beloved by his friends.
There has never been any doubt as
to where Morris stood on any ques-
ton. He has been frank and fear
less a trusted friend of Senator
LaFollette
Estabrook and Burke, the other
two republican candidates, cannot
win it must either be Morris or
McGoYern. The way to properly re-
ward the latter is to vote for Nor
ris You can trust the people -
they will see to it Alright or we are
vastly mistaken.
The Importance of faith with La
Toilette does not lie in the person
al relationship. IaFollette is an as
set only so long as he continues to
represent the broad interests of the
people, or as Sidney Anderson puts
it, government to make all the peo-
pie free and happy"
McGoyern represents the theory
that we must let the trusts come,
and regulate them; LaFollette and
Morris represent the idea that we
must head off the army Of trusts as
yet unborn by destroying the condi-
tions of special privilege which incu-
bate them and without which no
trust ever has or ever can prosper.
McGovern represents Roosevelt, who
in Paris the other day said:
Il am honest enough to say that
we must stop worrying big busi--
ness. big business" is, heart and
soul and body, special privilege.
