What's a Congressman?

A recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court declares a Con-
gresham to be an officer of the United
States. Twenty-seven Representa-
tives in the Lower House have pro-
tested, and they have gone to court to
prove that the decision is in error.
These petitioners foresee the over
turning of the legal status of members,
and they declare that the dignity of the
lower House would be much hurt if the
view that has obtained during 119
years, defining Congressman as one
of the three governing bodies of the
country, is to become so twisted as to
leave Representative in the position
of being Officers" They are sure
that they ought to be considered as at
least third of the physical end of
the republic.

Apathetic Washington.

There have been big things doing in
Washington-bu the city has not
been vitality concerned. The candi-
dates of the two principal parties for
the Presidency, living within hall
dozen blocks from one another, nave
been sought out by newspaper people
and a few politicians, but the resi-
dents of the capital have gone calmly
about their business, leaving Pres1-
dent Wilson and Mr. Hughes undis-
turbed. Then there has been the so
called preparedness parade" in which
big and little men have marched in or
der to give visible approval to the re
Gently discovered" Americanism. The
importance of the parade rested prin-
cipalIy upon the fact that it was spec
tacuIar. However, the new political
situation draws clearly defined lines
between the Republican and the Demo-
catic parties Since the election of
1912 the Republicans have been like
a ship without a rudder. There is a
noticeable difference in their de-
meanor and attitude toward life since
they have discovered living political
Moses, who will at least try to lead
them out of the bulrushes. On the
other hand the Democrats, who had
become somewhat apathetic in the last
year or two, have visibly spanked
up" and they are again preparing to
fight in the same old way that gave
them victory four years ago. Wash
ington is so thoroughly nOnpartisan
that it may be said to have fewer pre-
JUDGES than any other city. This is
perhaps due to the fact the great-and
those suspected to be great, including
the President, former Presidents, and
candidates for the Presidency look
pretty much like other human beings
in the eyes of the discerning Wash
ingtonians However, the capital
recognizes that the national political
contest is again on, and it's political
warriors are being mustered to &C
forth to fight the battle for the chief
tains.

WATERFOWL HONORS FLAG.
sold Glory Unfurled From Public
Buildings, Business Houses
and Homes.

Watertown as usual was not behind
her neighbors in the celebration OF
Flag day. Flags were unfurled and
thrown to the breeze from all the
schools, public buildings and from
quite few business houses, and found
reflections in the flash of flags in the
windows Or homes.
Watertown is eager to pay all honor
due the flag.
June IA was named as Flag Day by
proclamation Of President Wilson, who
declared it to be an occasion of OBJ
servance throughout the country
In his proclamation he urged "let
us rededicate ourselves to the nation
that is one and inseparable."
All allegiance possible was paid to
the flag and everybody was reminded
that they are all true Americans.

BUSINESS FIRM CEASES.
The WatertOwn Candy Company
Closes Its Doors.

Otto Klaffke, who was manager and
owner of So per cent. Of the Water
town Candy company, has left Water
town, and has closed his doors. He
has moved his stock to Milwaukee.
When Mr.. Klaffke came to Water
town last September he had hopes of
establishing paying business, for he
had the goods, the service, and his
prices were right. But for some
cause he failed to get the patronage
he had hoped for, and after a trial of
nine months gave up.
Mr. Klaffke was fine type Of bust
ness man, and all those who came in
to contact with him learned to hold
him in the highest regard. Those of
the patrons with whom he dealt ex-
presses regret at his leavetaking, but
he felt it the only course.

that enter into life's success
The success that the public
that we feel inside ourselves
are two different things.
The latter is the one that
really counts.
The girl just starting out
on her LIES career often
loses sight of this. She ac-
cepts the public standard of
success and works for it at
the sacrifice of everything
else.
Everyone is apt to do
this-the girl who is irving

 PUNISHMENT OF WICKED.
 Job 21 80, The wicked is re- served to the day of destruction, " referring to some future day.
 2 Peter 2::9 F, ''The Lord knows how to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished; these as natural brute beasts made to be taken and destroyed, and shall utterly perish in their own corruption. "
 Jude 6, and 2 Peter 2::4, And the angels which kept not their first estate (condition) he hath reserved in everlasting chains unto darkness unto the judgment of the great day" We note the word, everlasting" only lasts to the judgment. This word misleads many to believe the wicked will always be Tn a hell of everlasting torment, which is contradicted by more than two hundred positive statements of scripture, that aft after the wicked are raised and punished according to deeds in body they pass to a second which is death eternal everlastingly dead. Rev. 20:12 IA, And l saw the dead small and great. stand before God; and the dead were judged according to their works and the sea gave up the dead which were in it and death and hell (grave) de- livered up the dead which were in them; and they were judged every man according to their works, and death and he'll were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. '
 The Word says, seek immor- tality, eternal life. If we had it would we be asked to seek it? He that hath the Son has life. If he hath not the Son he hath not life. Y" Sinners do not have the Son. The wages of sin is death. the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord, eternal life being a gift to be sought after.
