RISJORD FOR JUDGE

ONE of the important questions
before the voters at the election to
be held on Tuesday of next week is
the selection of a Judge for the
Fifteenth Judicial district of which
Bayfield, county is part.
Judge G. N. Risjord has held this
position during the past five years
and the record which he made dur
ing that term entities him to another
term, and he should receive hand
some endorsement at the hands OF
the voters.
Judge Risjord is recognized as one
of the best circuit judges to be found
in the state. He has Railways en-
deavored to be fair and square and
that his iud gment has been the best
is indicated by the few times his
decisions have been reversed by the
Supreme court of the state.
Judge Risjord has conductt d court
in an able and business-like manner,
always being on the alert for saving
the money of the taxpayers and his
record for bayfield, county alone
shows a saving of over Sill, OO0 over
his predecessor. Other counties in
his district show like saving.
Recognizing the worth of this
man to the district as a Judge a
large number of prominent men and
taxpayers of the county have en-
dorsed his candidacy for second
term, doing it without solicitation
but because they believed in the
man and his worth to the district.
Judge Risjord has opposition but
his opponents have as yet failed to
find single thing upon which they
could attack him.. He is honest, he
IS capable, and it would be a calam-
ty if the people, through not going
to the polls, should in the leastsen-
danger his collection.

Just a Moment

WaShburn Is endeaVOflng TO
make good. She is working for
more industries. better build
ings, streets and cleaner morals.
It is civic pride that puts city
on the map. Are we helping to
put ours there? We may be a
help or a detriment. Which
shall it h ?
Tie licensed saloon and the
slippery blind pigs have never
put ANY city on the map in the
true sense Of the word. On the
contrary they are stigma and
mark ofinfsmy. Do you want
them in Washburn? We have the
blind pigs it is true, but they do
not have to be tolerated with the
proper law enforcement, Vote
back the licensed saloon and
you must tolerate them.
People who may wish to locate
in any city are going to fin out
the conditions as they are. They
are going to know these condi-
tions from a business, social and
moral standpoint. This applies
to Washburn, for people are
writing every day inquiring
whether or not this is desir-
able place in which to raise and
educate their children.
The saloon does not stand for
business prosperity, social &C.
tivity or moral environment. It
is benefit for the few and a
detriment and curse for the
many. The vets claim that the
license money helps to support
the town. keep down the taxes
and build schools. This claim
is so worn and threadbare that
it is entirely useless, The paltry
license fees are insignificant
com pared to the poverty. c. ime
and immortality which are
directly and indirectly due to
the saloon and it's allies.
If WashburG votes in the
saloon again it is going to take
a backward step, and will be
looked upon as city which mad
right start but failed to keep in
line, simply because few peo-
pie dominated the majority.
There are some folks that
will not be convinced that pro
hibition is the best thing, for
the simple reason that they do
not want to. They ridicule the
person who stands for a dry
town and say that she's a man
that never had drink; he
doesn't known any people that
do drink; he hasn't been thru
the m'll". or else he's a hypo-
critic: nobody likes whiskey any
better than he does".
If you are one Of these kind
of folks read the article entitled
"One Year Dry" in Golfers for
March "a, 1917. by man who
knows what he is talking about;
a man who has not prohibit
i0nist bnt later became con-
vinced that prohibition does
prohibit and does pay. What
applied to Seattle, and the State
of Washington applies 10 the
city of Washburn as we'll.
Our slogan is "All For Wash
burn and Washburn For All. "
Are you going to keep it so?
