EDITOR MUNsOH: Enclosed you will
hno 81 50 for my paper Could not do
without the CENSOR 1t seems ike an
old friend from home every week. We
are fairly well for old people. When
We look back 20 1872, the first time we
saw Viroqua, when we came with our
parents from Illinois 20 Wisconsin. Il
seems ike dream TO read of the pro
gress made in that little village and to
realize what il is nov. But az we
look over the lists of dealers now in
Viroqua, our old friends are nearly all
gone. Such is life. Soon the places
that we know now will know Us no
more forever.
We have had very peculiar season
this year. Some crops are quite good,
while others are almost failure. The
potato crop, which is the main crop, is
very slim. some digging only get eight
to ten bushels TO the acre, just get back
their seed. 1t will be a hard blow for
many farmers | tell them It willteach
them lesson, that when they begin TO
farm as you do in Wisconsin they will
do much better You can hardly find a
farmer here who has over three or four
cows, and the calves are sold off each
yelr. They will perhaps keep one for
a pattern 40 as not to forget how a
yearling looks. We had a late freeze
this spring and we will have to ship in
our apples, something this country sell
dom sees. Last year they rotted by
the hundred bushels. Peas were fine
crop. The factory run almost day ard
night for weeks, but could not take
care of all the crop, so many had to
leave them for seed and feed.
Well, Mr.. Editor, we hope to see you
and some of the boys at Washington
this coming week. We expect TO be
there. Probably this win be the last
great reunion of the old boys we will
attend. Time is telling on us and We
will have to surrender. Some of my
friep2s ''back home" may be interested
in knowing that have been appointed
a delegate to the conference on Nation
al Defense which will be held in Wash
ington, October TO under the aus
pices of the national defense league.
At this conference to be attended by
members of the cabinet, governors of
states, members of congress, members
of state legislatures, mayors of cities,
and prominent men of the country, will
be considered what must be done by
congress, the states, municipalities and
citizens generally to better prepare the
United States for national defense.
With best wishes to you and all old
boyhood friends we say, be faithfula and
we will soon see the King in glory and
sorrows and parting will be DER.
Your friend and well wisher,
A. B. SAXToN.

WHAT TIE BIG FOREIGN LOAN MEANS

ed in war, our country can scarcely af-

King Alcohol and Sulphur Match
Clarence Lsylan. one of Genoa's
young meE, was victim of a painful
accident, He was suffering with a sore
finger, when some of his friends sug-
gested that to imnaerse the affected
member in alcohol would be an excel
lent treatment. Clarence followed the
advice and everything would probably
have been all right had be not under
taken to light his cigar while the finger
was yet wet with the alcohol. As il
was, the alcohol on the sore finger was
ignited from the match and before il
could be put out, both the young mans
hands we're somewhat severely burned.

he AUTO ATTHE LATE FAIR


The Madison Democrat, always fair
and progressive, contains a late edito-
rial that is pertinent to every commu-
nifty in the land in the subjoined article:
One of the reasons why there was
such a great crowd at the Dane county
fair was the universally of the AUTO
mobile. There are thousands of the
machines within circle of fifty miles
about Madison, and it seemed that near
ly all were present on Thursday. It
was the automobile that brought the
crowds. To have machine is rural
fashion and it serves 20 brig the coun-
try close to the city. Coming to the
fair from a distance of 40 or so miles,
and Staying all day was common ex-
perience and very delightful one, too
Now that we are getting cur civilizs-
ton to see that the wheels do not go
too fast, or that the shuttle is not kept
open. When everybody gets his auto
mobile, everybody will have 10 see that
all the laws for their regulation are OBJ
served 20 the letter. Some time we
may have premium offered at the
county fair for the machine that has
gone the most miles without an acci-
dent to,itselt Vi 90 anybody else. lmag-
inc how { will be when not only the
farmers, but everybody else has ma
chine
But just the same, the automobile
problem IS serious one and needs
some clarifying solution else some day
the country viii bump up against an
economic situation that will serve to
startle Il. The social life of the nation,
too, is being changed as we go. awheei,
and while there is little doubt that the
change will be met tactfully and wisely,
still it is well if we ponder upon it and
see to it that we do not lose our heads
as we speed up.

Two important propositions in the
line of liquor regulation were settled
for the time being in the central west,
on Monday last. First Of these was a
vote on county option in Minneapolis
and Hennepin county, Minnesota. The
advocates Of regulation believed that a
victory was theirs, but the reverse was
the outcome, the vets carrying the day
by 5000 majority in total vote of 81,
900. Next was the bold stroke of Chi
cago's new Mayor Thompson, who pro-
claims that the state law must be en-
forced and every saloon and drinking
place in Chicago closed on Sundays.

Edgerton Tobacco Reporter: Extra
vagsnce seems to be the motto of this
age, especially in public affairs, and
until conscience takes firm grip of the
reins there'll be no letup. 1t is simply
astonishing what money is wasted

taxpayer is the goat. 1t is up to him
to say how long he will stand for it..

Carl Etze| Seriously Injured

Carl Etzel of Correll creek, me-
with a very serious accident last
Saturday afternoon while hauling
bundles to a machine at the John
A. Mahlstedt farm.
Mr.. Etzel was out in the field
loading up when a bundle fell off
of the load onto one of the horses
both of which got frightened and
started to run. Carl started to
run and catch them when he
stumbled and fell to the ground
and in the fall, the fork he was
carrying, entered his abdomen on
the left side, but he got up and
caught the horses, drove to the
house and by the time he got
there was taken sick Immediately.
John G. Mahlstedt saddled a
horse and started for Circle to
get DR.. Koehler, but when he ar
rived here the doctor happened
to be out on another case, so Mr..
was taken to Paxton by
M. A. Thoreson where he got DR..
who went out and attend
ed to the young mans injuries.
We understand that the doctor
found that one of the prongs of
the fork had injured one of Mr.,
EtzePs intestines.
At latest reports Mr.. Etzel was
getting along as well as could be
and out of danger
This will be sad news to CarTs
many friends, but all join in wish
ng for speedy recovery.
