Germany's serious inter-

that Emperor William has

The peace clamor is

SALOONKEEPERS
INNEKOOSA

Our readers will remember that the
village of Nekoosa voted the town
dry. Ever since then, those who were
in the saloon business have been run
ming temperance saloons and it was
generally believed that most of them
we're selling liquor under-handedly a
long with temperance drinks. The dis
trict attorney has had reasons to sus-
picion from the information that came
to his knowledge that some of these
ex-saloon keepers were selling liquor.
With the assistance Of J. E. Morning
ton, sheriff, they have accumulated
enough evidence for the conviction of
two and they believe that they have
sufficient evidence to convict two more.
Messrs. August Bentz and John Pelot
Of Nekoosa, who were arrested, have
already plead guilty before Judge
Park the past week and each receiv
ed sentence of $4,000 fine and cost.

MUST RECKON WITH THE U. S.
American Soldiers in the
Trenches.

London, Oct. 31.-Commenting on
the advent of American soldiers in
the German success in Italy or in 9TH
er theaters to become much greater
than the allies consider probable, the
Germans would still have to reckon
with the fresh, eager, stern forces of
America. 1t would seem that Ger
many is putting forth her utmost eff
fort during the interval which must
elapse before the weight of the United
States can be brought to bear upon
her weak and decimated battalfons"

High Cost of Everything.

These are certainly war times. The
housekeeper is limited to two pounds
and a half of sugar at a purchase for
which she has to pay % cents. The
time of ordering 100 pounds, or bar
rel of sugar, at time has gone by
Milk at ten cents quart, butter at At
cents a pound and all other things in
proportion is certainly compelling ev-
cry household to keep an inventory of
their needs. Every time the lady of
the house goes to the store shopping
she is surprised with the upward ten
dency of prices.
On a general average the necessities
of life are costing just double what
they did a year ago. It is absolutely
necessary for every household no mat
ter how well-to-do, to curtail expenses.
Live palmer and cheaper. There are
many ways in which we can curtail
expenses and still live plenty good E.
nough. The lessons of economy being
taught by this war may prove of last
ing benefit.

HUSH AID To ITALY
u. S. WILL SEND SHIPS LOADED
WITH COAL AND SUPPLIES.
Military Critics Say cadorna Will Re-
tire to New Line OF Defense on
TaeIiamento River.

Washington, Oct 31.-The next
move by the United States to help It
ally 1n her critical hour will be TO d.
vert quantities Of coal, supplies and
food intended for other destination TO
the % ships already turned over to the
Italian government
BY this response to Italy's need-the
first actual help TO be extended from
any OF the allieS-much material bene-
1T to the fighting forces is expected as
well as encOura cement for the civil
population.
Italian military experts here agree
that General Cadorna will retire with
his whole army to the new line of de-
tense on the Tagliamento river, about
twenty-five miles in the rear of the
present line. On this river the Italians
have formidable and permanent de-
fensfVe works and the line should hold
unless the Notifications have been
stripped Of their heavy guns to place
them on the mountain tops surround
Ing the Bainsizza plateau.
London, Oct Satisfaction with
the decision of Great Britain and
France to help the Italians is ex-
pressed by most of the newspapers,
which again urge that whatever as
sistance is possible must be given
without delay.
The Morning Post, however, con-
tends that the best way of helping It
ally is to keep hammering the Germans
on the western front. 1t adds
"a German victory over the Italian
will not help them if we keep striking
hard in Flanders. 1t is maxim in war
never to allow the strategy to be di-
verified to the enemy and every move
of our enemy now is to attempt to ere
ate q diversion from the western
front"
While some commentators today
take a somewhat gloomy view of the
situation, others behave that the Ital-
ians will recover and that the Germans
will not gain any permanent advan-
tage. The Daily Express says:
Germany has made a gambler
move and won the first coup. That's
all: We may wait and see what will
happen without misgiving."

1t is generally believed the other two
saloon keepers in Nekoosa will do the
same when they are convinced of the
evidence which the District Attorney
has against them.
Such conduct on the part of saloon
keepers is what is rapidly killing their

ditions turnout the U. S. They appear

succeed Paul o. Husting. They say
he does not fit in for this place. Even
certain men belonging to the stalwart
branch of the republican party who
favored him for the governorship do
not want him for the U. S. Senatorship
In the early part of the war his Ameri-
canism was found lacking in many re-
spects. Now is the time that we must

Whitehead as follows:
"Philipp is Not Man to Succeed Hust-
ing.
"Emanual L. Philip, to my mind,
is far from being such a man." con-
tinued Mr.. Whitehead. 'He did not

sis that he must have in his platform

that Mr.. Philip had failed to catch

La Toilette had made the great mis-
take of his career. Then Philip rush

and now he cannot write and talk e.
nough in advocacy of the war that was
apparently so distasteful to him."
Alexander E. Matheson, conserva-
tive republican, leading attorney of
GAINESVILLE and long a trustee of Be
lott college, said:
Eyes, Philip is trying to shout his
loyalty that he hopes, by making much
noise, to make people forget his lack
of loyalty. Socially, politically and
financially Philip is wrapped up with
the brewers and his election as United

His is sinister influence upon the
state of Wisconsin. He has revealed

The Milwaukee Journal, and the Be-

papers are commenting editorially
very strongly against the governors

suggested for the senatorship from
which a splendid man can be selected
without reference to politics, that will
do honor to the state and the nation
in that position. We do not care whe-
Their he is Republican or Democrat, but
we do ask for full red -blooded Ameri
can that will never be found wanting
