mise being conveyed in telegram
to his folks received Monday even
ing. The news of John Wherein
skis death came as a shock, for
while it was known that he was IN
a precarious condition as a result
of tuberculosis his relatives and
friends had hopes that the change
of climate would prove beneficial.
Togther with his brother Henry he
left here Dec. 5 for Tucson, and
the reports received shortly after his

afflicted with the dreaded disease
and despite every effort for relief
he gradually failed. He was pre-

lief but he succumbed after hav-
ing been there about a month.

GOV. Phillip IS INAUGURATED
Impressive But Simple Exercises Marx
the Inauguration of WiscOnsin's
Governor.

OOVeInOI.
Monday noon at Madison Gov.
Emanuel L. Philip took the oath
of Office and will pilot the ship of
state for the next two years. The
ceremonies attending the inaugur-
alton were simple and impressive,
it being the wish of Gov. Philip
that the pomp and ceremony usual
ly attending such an event be dis
pensed with as much as possible.
1t is customary to give an inaugur-
alton ball, but in accordance with
Gov. Philips wishes this was
omitted as part of the ceremonies.
ASreception followed the induction
of the new state officers, at which
hundreds of representative citizens
from all sections of the state paid
tribute to tie rev executive. Other
state officers who took the oath of
Office were:
Lieutenant Edward
F. Dithmar of Baraboo.
Secretary of State-John S. Dom
aid, of Mt Horeb.
State Treasurer-Henry Johnson
of Oconto.
Attorney General-Walter c,
Owen Of Maiden Rock.
OF the five state officers inaugur-
ated three of them were reelected,
the governor and lieutenant COVER
nor starting on their first terms.
The ceremony OF inducing the
new administration took place in
the assembly room of the state cap
itol and was witnessed by hundreds
of people and many more were un-
able to gain entrance. There were
delegations present from all sec
tions of the state. Milwaukee had
the largest representation, a speci-
al train carrying the new executive
and hundreds of his admirers to
the state capitol.
\ few minutes after II O'Clock
Master of Ceremonies VIM. R.
Bagley announced from the speak
er's stand that the time had
come to induct the new admins
tration. Each of the state officers
were brought forward and took and
subscribed to the oath. Men of all
parties had gathered to witness the
ceremonies and the political cam
paigns of few months ago were
forgotten. Gov Philip s features
indicated that he appreciated the
I seriousness of the responsibility
which he will bear while serving
as the twenty second governor Of
this great state Of Wisconsin.
The Inauguration of Gov Philip
marks an event in the politics of
the state. The task which lies be-
fore him as chef executive of the
state is a large one, but his admir-
! ers are firm in their convictions
that Gov. Philip will be equal to
I the occasion and that when he has
served his term the results of his
administration will show that he
done his duty we'll. Gov Philip,
it may be said, will have little or
no support from the political
bosses" Of the state, and 1t is gen
erally understood that he will meet
with opposition in his efforts 10
carry out plans and ideas which he
set forth in his campaign speeches,
and which he is duty bound TO per
form. But being first of all big
business man, the electors of the
state put their trust in him and
have full confidence that he will
live up to his word and that when
his term has expired the state will
have profted greatly through his
efforts.
