A. c. Moorhouse was guest OF
Wilson and Glatfelter last Monday
evening for supper. The boys say he
seemed to be quite contented all even
ing, enjoying the meal, and being in
excellent spirits. They all retired a
bout the usual hour and much to the
astonishment of the two hosts, they
discovered Mr.. Moorhouse putting on
his clothes about twelve o'clock, and
soon after took his departure, express
ing his appreciation of their warm
hospitality. He gave no reason for
going, but John says he thinks it was
because he was afraid he might sleep
too late the next morning. Well we
all know there was some good reason
foe his leaving warm bed, and good
fire at that time O. night, but are
willing to accept Johns explanation Of
the affair.
Last Thursday night with the mer-
curry lowering around 81 degrees be-
low zero, John Glatfelter, Albert
Moorhouse, Homer Wilson and Frank
Jarboe, struck out through the snow
for Housemans hollow, on horse back
the four on two horses. With some
difficulty In getting John astride the
beast, after rolling him of in snow
drift, the merry bunch arrived in
time to find the Housemans enjoying
their evening meal. They were well
coined most cordially and the even
ing was greatly enjoyed by all, with
music, singing and conversation. AT
ter all, the dry, still cold, is not halt
SO bad as many think it is. If one is
really prepared for it, as this bunch
we're. They certainly had gay time
with not single complaint of feeling
any frost bites. 1t might be added
they did not know at the time Just
how low the mercury was.

SPECIAL NOTICE

The editor of THE Blade" will
be in a position to ship three thou
sand Colored people from the
South into the Eastern, Northern
and Western cities. The war has
been the means of thousands of
doors being opened to Black men
and women which heretofore have
been closed. and they are getting
the same wages that the white
man has received. Hundreds of
factories now are employing Col
ored men and women on salaries
ranging from $3.50, $3.50, $500
and $3.50 per day. The proprie-
tors of these large institutions tell
us that these Colored men and wo-
men are making good, and they
could use a hundred more daily.

WHY WILCOX :?

An intelligent man, whenever
he is asked TO do any particular
thing, unless he is already inform
ed in respect to it, enquiries the
reason. 1t is thus he shows his
intelligence and ii once enlisted
in the cause may be relied upon
for intelligent service. And 50,
'eing asked by us to vote for Roy
p. Wilcox for the Republican nom
nation for Gorernor, you have a
perfect right to ask the reason
why.
First ard foremost, vote for him
because he is 100 per cent Amer
lean and stands for those things
you hold most dearly; clean, able
and fearless he relentlessly OPP
poses every separation of the
American people into racial, So
cial or religious divisions. He is
fair, conscientious, broad-mind-
ed and thoroughly loyal man Of
big vision too big to stoop to pet
ty politics; too liberal to judge
any man except by the standard
applicable to all. He accepts and
will perform every duty imposed
upon him and he is willing to ac-
cord TO every man the rights that
are his. He will prove himself
a most excellent War Governor Of
Wisconsin.
Another equally good reason is
that his mos dangerous CD rival
for the nomination is the present
incumbant Governor f. l.. Phil
ipp, who, in more ways than we
have the time to euumerate, has
utterly failed to measure up to
expectations. Unlike Senator
Wilcox, the Governor lacks vision
at any rate we are charitable
The Wisconsin weekly blade. [volume] (Madison, Wis.) 1916-1925, 1918-08-22

enough to attribute his innumer-
able blunders to cause over
which he has no control-yet with
his ear attuned to catch what he
believes is the popular will. That
is not alone well illustrated by his
attitude in respect to the war,
conscription, etc, but also by his
unjust and unwarranted attack
upon Americans of African de
scent. AT time when all of Eur
ope was wrapped in mantle Of
death and destruction and our
country was being harrassed by
Germany on the sea and Mexico on
our Southern border, our Cover
nor could think of no better sub
iect to discuss before veterans of
two Of our wars, than the Mis-
takes Of Emancipation and the re-
peal Of the Fifteenth amendment.
Surely a man who could do that
before Spanish War Veterans on
Washington s Birthday, 1916. and
repeat it before Civil War Veter-
ans en- Memorial Day, lacks the
vision necessary to make a
great war governor.
This is the answer to your que
ry, Why Wilcox" Even if
Wilcox were less desirable than
he is, still you would owe it to
yourself to 90 nothing that would
aid in the election of Governor
Philip. We may, as he charges,
know very little about how to
run a government, " but we can
show the world that we are not
so ignorant as not to know when
we are attacked. This we can best
do at this time by voting for Will
COX.
