LARGE ENROLMENT AT
DAIRY SCHOOL EXPECTED

About seventy young men, with at
least six months practical experience in
creamery or cheese factory manage
ment, have already applied for enroll
ment in the special ten weeks dairy
management course given at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin beginning Novem
Der 9. While most of the applicants
reside in Wisconsin,, there are few
from other states.
Higher prices for dairy products dur
ing the past year, which have main,
tanned level far in advance of former
records, will tend to add larger num-
bers of capable young men to the ranks
of dairy manufacturers. With the ad
vance in price for butter and cheese
comes greater demand for skilled
workmen. and the training afforded by
course at the state dairy school
means better positions for those who
satisfactorily complete it.
New machinery has been added this
summer to the equipment of the Uni
versity creamery and cheese factory,
thus enabling students to gain exper-
fence in the handling of the very latest
and most improved appliances en-
ployed in the manufacture of dairy
products.

La his speech Tuesday evening, Con
gresham Nelson was utterly wrong in
his adverse criticism of President Will
sons Mexican and European policies.
The present congress has made rec
ord which will endure far beyond this
campaign; and when the historians
write up the people they will accord to
Mr. Wilson the part Of a wise statesman
and "A brave patriot. The senators and
representatives who voted for the Gore
and McLemore resolutions will also be
given their proper place in history.
Just watch the new school histories as
they come out. The Democrat is con
tident that they will contradict the
campaign utterances of candidates
Hughes and Nelson.

To the Voters of Iowa County:

To the Voters of Iowa County:
John K. Francis of Mineral Point
announces himself as an independent
candidate for the office of sheriff
My Independent candidacy is solic-
tied by a large percentage of the voters
of all parties in almost every precinct
in the county.

of the sheriff office, having been de-
putty sheriff at Mineral Point for 5 and
one half years.
| have been voter at Mineral Point
since 1880 and have been a tax payer in
that city since 1890. With the excep.
ton Of Mr. Taylor, the present candi-
date for district attorney, am the only
candidate residing outside of the city of
Dodgeville, which is a condition all
fair minded voters of Dodgeville do not
uphold.
Your vote and working support in
my election will mean fair and faithful

HUGHES WEARlES THE
COUNTRY.

While it has not very wide circula.
ton, The New York Evening Post is
one Of the most influential newspapers
in the country. The following press
dispatch is therefore very significant:
New York, Oct. 16.-"The Hughes
Disappointment" is the title of an edi
torial in which the independent New
York Evening Post declares that the
Republican candidates speaking tour
has failed to stir up the slightest en-
thusiasm. and has depressed even his
keenest admirers.
I'm the face of complaint and pro-
tests" the paper says, "Mr Hughes has
continued in his course, brushing aside
all reports of dissatisfaction"
The Post continues:
"Carlyle's question might be put to
him-'Hast thou only a torch to de-
stroy? Hast thou no hammer with
which to build? Mr. Hughes has a
hammer, but he uses it only to knock
every Democratic act Or failure to act
The sure consequence has been to
weary the country. People want to
hear something of future efforts. And
in the whole matter Of passionate ap-
peal, as of man with high vision of
what is to be, Mr. Hughes has come
painfully short. He has been shooting
spurts of vitriol at the Democratic
administration. He has not freely
poured out wine for those whom he
invites to sit at his table.
He may have offended nobody, but
he has won nobody. He has left the
country cold. Thousand who were
ready to be drawn to him are left halt
ing between two opinions. Most of the
votes cast for him will be without zeal
or vivid anticipation. The campaign
in general cannot be said to have been
stimulating. Mr. Hughes part in it has
been a positive depressant."

Williams Will Surprise Them.

L. J. Cunningham, in the Evening
Independent Chippewa Falls, Wis:
Burt Williams will look like three
cents two thirds. spent, after the first
week in November. Barron County
News. This is a fair sample of Repub-
lican campaign argument, slurring
remark cast at Democratic candidate.
It is easy to see why Mr. Williams has
been subjected to such comment. The
Republicans can find no good and
sufficient reason for voting for their
gubernatorial candidate, in fact they
are scouting around for an excuse; they
can discover no good reason for voting
against the Democratic candidate and
so they stoop to thepetty method of
belittling the candidates by sighting
remarks.
Burt Williams will surprise a great
many of these stand patters in Novem
Der. He is man of Progressive ideas
and has always stood by his principles
regardless Of consequences. On no oc-
casion has he 'sold himself to save the
hour" but has fought on with a
clean record, ever on the side of the
people.
Today he stands for democratic gov
ernment and is opposed by those who
have fought for privilege, have used
their power and influence to secure
privilege. Most of the votes in this
state realize that there is little of party
in the campaign in Wisconsin men and
their ideals are the issues. Without
question, the majority in this state
question, the majority in this state
favor the men and ideals of the entire
Democratic ticket and unless the pro-
missed Wall street money is able to
cloud the vision of the voters, Wiscon-
sin will register great victory for the
ticket led by WILSON, WOLFE and
WILLIAMS.

EXPECTS TOO MUCH.

A supporter of the composite candi-
date writes from Waukegan, ILL.,, to the
Chicago Herald as follows:
It seems that nearly all the letters
published in the HERALD are from those
who favor Wilson; also that the articles
in support of Hughes might be stronger.
Ten men can't give valid reason for
supporting the composite candidate.
That President Wilson ought to be re-
elected is self evident proposition !;
and that he will be re- elected is becom-
ing more evident every day.
