For the first time since statehood,
the Democratic party is in third rank
in the legislature.
The contest for the speakership is
expected to develop lively interest in
the converting of the legislature.
There are four candidates, represent
ing as many factions or political in
terests. Assemblyman Riley Young
of Darien is the accepted Philip can
didate, although the governors close
friends say that he is not taking any
side in the speakership contest. AS
semblyman John Chapple of Ashland
is the recognized Wilcox candidate,
representing the republicans who
came within 500 votes of defeating the
governor for denomination. Assem-
blyman c.. B. Ballard of Appleton is
the candidate, it is said, of the Equity
league. The fourth candidate, it is
believed, will be Thomas Nolan of
GAINESVILLE.
The senate organization may create
a new alignment growing out of the
leadership of Senator Roy P. Wilcox
in that body.
Reelected members are usually
given consideration in committee ap-
pointments, and frequently they re-
ceive the preference in chairmanships.
The following committee chairmen
and ranking members have been re-
turned: Finance, Carl Kurtenacker,
ranking member; judiciary, Arnold
Otto, chairman; education, M Il.
Hineman, ranking member; agricul-
ture, R. B. Melvin, ranking member;
insurance and banking, John c. Chap
pie, chairman; public welfare, r. B.
Melvin, ranking member; taxation, w.
II. Edwards, chairman, and M. L.
Hineman, ranking, member; printing.
o. P. Vaughn, ranking member; rules.
John C. Chappie, ranking member.
In the senate the reelected mem
bers and holdovers are: Corporations,
George B. Skogmo, ranking member;
judiciary, w. H. BENEFIT, chairman and
Timothy Burke. ranking member;
state affairs, W. T. Stevens, chairman,
L. E. Cunningham, ranking member;
legislative procedure, Timothy Burke,
chairman.
Timothy Burke, Green Bay, will be
re-chosen president pro tempore of the
senate. He probably will be selected
as chairman of the judiciary commit
tee. Senator George B. Skogmo,
River Falls, probably will head the
corporations committee. In the as
sembly it is generally taken for grant
ed that Chief Clerk c. E. Shaffer, Mad
ison, will be re-chosen to that office
and ex-Assemblyman T. G. Cretney
will be reelected as house sergeant
alarms.

Badger State
Ill app min IS

Wausau-The woodchuck is the
problem which is troubling officials
The county board voted to discontinue
the payment of bounty of 25 cents
for each woodchuck. In 1918 bounty
was paid on more than $4,000 animals.
The great amount of work attached to
the payment, the making out of certi-
hcates, etc., frequently hampered
farm work of the town chairmen
which resulted in the discontinuance
of the bounty Now it is realized that
the woodchuck during the season will
consume and destroy enough food to
provide for sheep. Another meeting
of the board will be held soon and it
is thought the bounty will be re-
stored.

ing the acidity and toxic poisons from
the entire digestive tract. making 1t
act naturally, so that the body will
receive the full strength of the food
eaten-a great deal of suffering would
be saved to humanity.
Everyone knows that the disease it.
self, and the strong medicines that
have been taken, upset the stomach,
leave it hot and feverish, the mouth
dry, the tongue coated, nasty taste,
and no desire to eat. This is poor
foundation to build new strength on.
Now, tens of thousands of people all
over this country are using EATONIC

poisonous after-effects right out Of the

full results so wonderful that the
amazingly quick benefits are hardly

the Record to exclaim:
"How the large majority of preach
ers and teachers of the country would
rejoice if they could change their
occupation and become bricklayers
and hod carriers"
While it is doubtful If many
bricklayers and teachers would SWAP
jobs with bricklayers and hodcarriers
principally for the reason that they
teach and preach because they fee
they can serve mankind best thai
way, there isn't any doubt that al
feel aggrieved because their work is
so poorly appreciated, as demon

Certainly, we, the public, should b

ward a radical bulge in values, the
corn market showed evident strength

Oats displayed Independent firmness
owing to the fact that the crop was
at a critical stage, and that shorts

over Sunday.
Provisions were lifted by peace news
and by the raise of hogs and grain.

ADVERTISING THAT
DOESN'T PAY.

John S. Stubblefield, writing the
editor of The Graphic from Shanghai
China enclosed clipping from the
China Press of May 90, says
II am sending you enclosed chip
ping thinking per chance you might
want to show the home folks that
Arkansas is advertised in the
Orient"
The clipping referred to is headed
Encouraging the Arkansas Schoo
Ma'am," and is an excerpt from "Yu
ba Correspondence to the Hebel
Springs Headlight" saying:
"Mr. John Arant and wife are
boarding the school teacher. She has
quiet nice walk thru the mud tt
her school,"
AS Mr. Stubblefield says this shows
that Arkansas is advertised in the
Orient" but it isn't the right kind of
advertising.
The Graphic is glad that Mr.. Stub
blefield sent the clipping. 1t shows
his interest in Arkansas, and it again
gives opportunity to point out the
harm done the state by writers for
the papers" with more humor than
judgment in their makeup.
1t is because of such misguided
"wits' that so many of our soldiers
found it necessary to fight the bat
tie of Arkansas" while in the army
and why too many people outside tbs
state have entirely erroneous impress
sions of Arkansas and her people.
Concluding his letter, Mr.. Stubbie
field pays this compliment to TIL.
Graphic.

certainly hits the spot out here"
