are few Bryan supporters. They

cause of the one-term plank in the
platform That this feeling has gotten

WATTERSON ON LINCOLN

The Tribune. a paper which admired
and supported Abraham Lincoln when
he first appeared as public character,
and which has ever since adhered to
his true democratic principals and
teachings, and upholds the belief that
he is the greatest man associated with
American life from its beginning to
the present time-that he was the sa-
viour Of our country, the real creator
of a new nation, notwithstanding to
the contrary the views of descendants
of local sympathizers and secessioners
during war time derives great pleasure
in placing before its readers Col. Hen
ry Watterson's eulogy on this Christ
like man, 50 appropriate at this time;
"Born as lowly as the Son OF God, in
howell; reared in penury, squalor, with
no CLEAN Of light or fair surroundings.
without graces, actual or acquired;
without name or fame or official train
ing; it was reserved for this strange
being, late in life, to be snatched"from
obscurity, raised to supreme command
at a supreme moment, and entrusted
with the destiny Of nation.
THE great leaders Of his party. the
most experienced and accomplished
public men of the day. We're made to
stand aside, were sent to the rear,
while this fantastic figure was led by
unseen hands to the front and given
the reins of power. 1t is immaterial
whether we were for him or against
him; wholly immaterial. That, during
four years, carrying with them such a
weight Of responsibility as the world
never witnessed before, he filled the
vast space allotted him in the eyes and
actions OF mankind. is to say that he
was inspired of God for nowhere could
he have acquired the wisdom and the
virtue.
where did Shakespeare get his gen
JUS q? Where did Mozart get his music ?
Whose hand smote the Tyre of the
Scottish ploughman, and stayed the
life of the German priest? God, God,
and God alone; and as surely as these
were raised up by God, inspired by God,
was Abraham Lincoln; and thousand
years hence, no drama, no tragedy.
no epic poem viii be filed with greater
wonder, or be followed by mankind
with deeper feeling than that which
tells the story Of his life and death -

iISTLESs DEMOCRATS.
Evening Wisconsin

Evening Wisconsin
a remarkable demonstration of the
hstlessness OF the Democratic party
which has developed during the present
session OF Congress, while President
Wilson and leaders of the party in the
national legislature have been pulling
contrary ways, is noted by observers
who have kept track OF the attendance
of Democratic members on the sessions
of the Houae of Representatives.
On the evidence of statistics the DEM
orratic members as a body are charged
with deliberate neglect. by actual
daily count since the holidays Demo
Gratis have been fewer in number on the
floor of the House than the Republicans,
except for seven roll calls, An unin-
formed observer would have supposed
that the Republicans and not the Dem
ocrats were the responsible party.
There are in the house DDS Democrats
and 1877 Republicans. The record Of at
tendance shows that on every day dur
ing January, with the exceptions noted,
the Republicans outnum5ered the Dem
ocrats on the floor, sometimes two to
one and sometimes three to one. At
one time on this day a month ago the
the number OF Democrats on the floor,
was only eight, the absentees of the
party numbering two hundred and
twenty. On the twelfth and thirty
irst of the month there were times
when the number of Democrats in the
House was only eleven.
This does not show the sense of re-
sponsibility that should animate repre-
sentatives Of party entrusted with
the conduct of national affairs espec-
iaily ut time ike the present.

Use COcOQnut Oil
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition. be careful what you wash II
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos con-
tain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp. makes the hair brittle, and is very
harmful Just plain mulsifled cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and entirely grease
less), Is much better than the most ex.
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't posi-
bly, injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub 1t in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily,
and removes every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive Oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly. and it leaves
It fine and silky. bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. 1t is very cheap,

one in the family for months.-Adv.
