Claims Northern Wisconsin
Can Be Made 'Dry"

Sunday evening.

Rev. j. H. McMannus, former
pastor of the Methodist church
in this city but now pastor of
the Methodist church in Odanah,
was here with his war paint
on" last Sunday evening when
he delivered a stirring address
in regard to the Indian treaty
which prohibits the handling or
sale of spirituous liquors on the
lands ceded by the Chippewa
Indians to the United States
government.
A large number of people
were out to hear the address and
all went away convinced that
the northern half Of Wisconsin
and half of the northern penin-
sula of Michigan can be made
"dry" if an effort is only put
forth to have the treaty en-
forced.
For the past three years Rev.
McMannus has made a study of
the Indian treaty and he had
with him Sunday copies of the
treaty, portions of which were
read to the audience, and there
was not a doubt that the pro-
visions of this treaty are prac-
tically the same as the one
covering Northern Minnesota
