WHITE RIBBONERS
End CONVENTION
(From Tuesdays daily.)

The Wisconsin Women's Christian
Temperance Union, which has been
holding it's annual convention in the
First Congregational church at Madi-
son, closed yesterday. 1t has been a
grand success in every detail. Three
hundred delegates were present and
from 300 to 1000 visitors were pres
ent daily. The election of officers re-
suited as follows:
President-Mrs. w. A. Lawson, Mil
waukee.
Vice-president-Mr A. w. Warren,
Stoughton.
Corresponding secretary-Mrs. p.
w. Follett, Oshkosh.
Recording secretary-Mrs. Julia
Hutchinson, Waupaca.
Treasurer-Mrs. Ida Cook, Green
Bay.
This will be Mrs. Lawson's tenth
term as head of the union.
In point of interest the big day of
the convention was Sunday. The
platform in the church auditorium
was a bower of flags, pennants, ban.
ners, palms and cut flowers, and with
in the bower sat Mrs. Ella Boole of
New York city, national vice-presi-
dent; Mrs. w. A. Lawson of Milwau-
kee, state president, and Mrs. Lulu
l. Shepherd of Salt Lake City, nation.
al organizer
MormOnism was the subject of Mrs.
Shepherds address. Her manner Of
delivery, her wit, and unbounded
knowledge of her subject, held the
1000 listeners in deep interest for
more than an hour and half.
"Mormonism is the great death val,
ley of this country" she said, "and
unless the strong men awake we will
be plunged into bloodier longitudinal
war than ever was the latitudinal
civil war.
"The Mormon church controls SO
large banking houses, five railroads,
three insurance companies and innu.
merable numbers of factories. It con-
trolls financially and politically
eleven states, and when two more are
added to their list they can block any
political game in the United States.
1t is their chief aim to put the head Of
the Mormon church in the presidential
chair. They still practice rcli2amy."

Corporal Welsh rounded them up

officer clad in French military cap,
a Mexican blouse, very dirty white
