JUDGE JOHNSON
PASSES AWAY

The following is taken from the
Baraboo, Wis, Weekly News and will
be of interest to many old timers of
Valley City and Barnes county:
Judge William A. Johnson passed
away at his home on Lynn avenue at
6:15 on Sunday morning. Although
he had been about town within fort
night, he had been in failing health for
some time. He had a number of all
ments, among them kidney trouble,
which caused his death. He was aged
70 years.
Judge Johnson was born on Sank
Prairie, June Is, 1841, seven years be-
fore Wisconsin became a state. He
was one of four brothers to become
a soldier in the Civil War, he being a
member of Co. F, 18th Wis. Vol. Inf.
Mrs. johnson was also an early res
ident of Sank Prairie, her name be-
fore her marriage being Miss Marilla
bennett. At the close of the Civil
War Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson went to
Barnes county, North Dakota, where
he took up soldier homestead of a
quarter section and purchased an adj
ditional 20 acres. He served as coun-
w COHlIulSSlOllcT LII CIldI COullCy 1OI
five years and as county judge for
twelve years. He was also a delegate
to political conventions on several
occasions. ~s Gt
In 1907 Judge Johnson and Mrs.
Johnson returned to Sank county 10
eating on Lynn street in Baraboo.
They celebrated their golden wedding
on November 6, 1917. -
Besides his wife he leaves three
brothers: George w. johnson, Orlan-
do, Fla, formerly Storm Lake, la.)
D. Joseph johnson, Baraboo; and
James M. Johnson, Rice Lake, Wis.

nieces.

Friends of law and order throughout
the country, regardless of political af-
filiations, heartily concur in the tele-
gram of congratulation sent by Demo-
cratic President Wilson to Republi-
can Governor Coolidge of Massachus-
etts, as follows: II congratulate you
upon your election as victory for law
and order. When that is the issue all
Americans stand together" HUI
dreds of similar messages were receiv-
ed by Governor Coolidge, including a
hearty one from our only living ex-
president and several from governors
of other states. But no message of
congratulation was sent by our spine
less governor of North Dakota. Not
on your life! He has been too busy
lending aid and cmfort to the leaders
of striking miners, who would force
their followers to break contracts, and
who would obey only those laws that
are favorable to themselves, even
though all industry would be paralized
and one hundred million people freeze
and starve. Before Frazier speaks or
acts, he wants to know from the
strike leaders what is compatible
with their Wishes" to quote from his
own message to strike leader Lewis
1t would have been incompatible
with the wishes Of Boss Townley and
his friends the Reds to congratulate
governor who preserved order and
suppressed the striking policemen of
Boston.

The league papers have been put
ting up fine bluff about the taxes
for several months, in fact ever since
the last legislature adjourned, these
papers have been telling the farmers
that the taxes would not be raised
and pounding away at the others pa
pers whom the league papers term as
agents of big business. Leaving all
other politics out of the question if
the league papers are honest with the
farmers that have boosted their ad
ministration into power why are they
not honest enough to publish just what
is really happening to the people of
this state. We know what we are
telling the people about tax condi-
lions are true and if the league is
equally honest in the statements it's
papers are making why don't the edi-
tors of these papers go to the court
house and get the taxation figures Of
1918 and 1919 by way of comparison
and publish their findings as they take
them from the tax records, publish
this to the world, and let the people
be the Judge as to who is telling the
truth or lying to the public. These

Undoubtedly the outstanding fea-
ture of these Jewish relief drives is
the hearty support given them by the
non-Jews. In every part of the coun-
try Jews have not only backed the war
drives most literally but have always
given generously to all local and gen
eral charitable movements; and the
non-Jews are now showing their ap-
probation by their hearty cooperation
and aid. -Gs>

When John L. Lewis went into the
federal court Tuesday to reply for
the miners on the order of Judge An
derson ordering the strike order re-
called he said to the court: Gentle
men, we will comply with the mandate
Of the court We are Americans. We
cannot fight our government. That is
ALL" Whatever there is between the
miners and the operators that are not
satisfactory the answer of Mr.. Lewis
will stand out in letters of living fire
before the world. It was the answer
of thorough American who put his
country first and foremost at time
when by showing a more stubborn at
titude could perhaps have prolonged
the STRIKE We take cur hat off to the
miners leaders. When men like Lewis
make that kind of an answer it is a
sure sign that citizenship will come
before anarchy and radicalism. 1t
was the answer of an American citizen
couched in American language.

ARMISTICE DAY
O say can you see
By the dawn's early Light,

What so proudly we hail,
At the twilight's last cleaning.
1t takes no stretch of the magma
ton for any patriotic citizen to know
to what the above lines allude to-the
Stars and Stripes which so proudly
float over every hamlet and city in
our land-a flag which has never been
whipped, only by the wind, and which
has never been carried into battle
only to help the cause of those who
have been crushed beneath the iron
heal of depotism and military auto
crazy. Today we celebrate the first
anniversary of Armistice Day, when
the peoples of the old world were freed
from tyranny and despotism and hos
tilities ceased, thus virtually ending
the greatest and most unjust war Of
all history. 1t was great day in this
country and all other countries of the
world when the news flashed from
ocean to ocean and from coast to
coast that the war was over.
Hearts were full of joy and thankful
ness that the cruel war was over and
that the boys in the trenches would
soon be homeward bound. There are
some hearts, it is true, that were sad
on that day, because they had loved
ones there who would never come back
to them again in the flesh, although
they were ever present in spirit, but
underlying the grief of these afflicted
ones was the great joy of patriotism
and love of country to know that they
had through their sons contributed
something towards the freedom and
democracy of the world. 1t was a
great contribution and one that will
illumine brightly the pages of
history. Let us then today remember
with thankful hearts the cessation of
hostilities and give thanks to AL
mighty God for the great victory
vouchsafed to us through this great
est of all victories for right and JUS
tice It is a day we should all cele-
brate in order to keep alive those SEN
timents that go with such great day.
We are more than glad that a great
majority of the boys who went from
Barnes county have come back again
to their homes and loved ones, better
physically, better periodically and
better men in every way because the
experiences they have endured has
given them a broader and more COM
prehensive vision of what a great
country we have here and what great
blessings we enjoy-greater than any
other country in the world and it is
no wonder that when the boys come
back and saw standing out in majes-
tic splendor the statue of liberty en-
tightening the world they took off
their hats and with reverence and joy
sang

WANTSRIVAL
PUT ON BALLOT

An unusual situation in the action
brought by C.NP. Peterson Of Bisbee,
league candidate for the senate from
Towner county, to compel the secre-
tary of state to place his name on the
official ballot for the special election
November Is, developed Monday when
D. J. Beisel of Cando, Pete7son's in
dependent opponent, petitioned the su-
preme court, the secretary Of state
and the attorney general to have Peter
sons name go on.
Beisel, in his petition, cites the
fact that the election in Towner county
presents important issues which would
should not be- decided on mere tech
nicalities. He contends that the whole
state is interested in the outcome, and
insists that no unfair advantage
should be taken of his opponent.
A question as raised as to Peterson's
right to place on the ballot owing
to the fact that his petition did not
reach the secretary of states office I'M
til "a hours after the time limit fixed
by Governor Frazier for the closing
of nominations.
AS result of Beisel's the attorney
generals office today filed petition
with the supreme court for permission
to file an amended answer in the. ac-
ton brought by Peterson for a writ
of mandamus compelling the secretary
of state to place his name on the Off
cial ballot, which was argued last
week. If this permission is granted,
the attorney generals Office and the
secretary Of state will join in asking
the supreme court for leave to with
draw the original pleadings and for
authority to have Peterson's name
printed on the official ballot.

There is one thing about the vote in
Ohio last week, up to this time no one
really knows whether the vets or the
drys have carried the state. Up to
this morning the drys had Is majority
with two counties to hear from. This
is a real thriller of an election and
the people of the state of Ohio are be-
ing kept on the ragged edge OF uncer-
tainty all the time.
Victor L. Berger, the Milwaukee So
cialist, was denied seat in the house
of representatives Monday by an
overwhelming vote. The vote was
300 to 1. Berger was convicted of dis
loyalty and the house Of representa-
tives very properly voted to the effect
that no man who was disloyal to his
country should be seated in the nation
al house of representatives. The vote
of the members will be generally
approved by the people OF the
United States. A special election
will now be ordered to fill the va
cancy caused by the unseating of Mr..
Berger.

Gov. Frazier has taken the bull by
the horns as it were and has issued a
proclamation to the effect that If the
mine operators and employees do not
come to an agreement by six o'clock
tomorrow night he will take over the
coal mines of the state and the state
will operate the same. That is the
proper system and we are going to
give the governor credit for taking
action. It is L e only way to do under
the circumstances, and if the strikers
cannot get together with the opera
tors it is high time for the state to
dip in and take a real firm hand. The
Times-Record will stand by Gov.
Frazier in any action he takes along
these lines because we believe that the
people are entitled to consideration at
the hands of the state and the people
must have coal to keep themselves
warm. Go to it, governor, and show
the world you mean just what your
proclamation says.

In Towner county there is to be a
special election for state senator to
be held on the 25th of this month.
D. J. Beisel is the candidate of the in
dependents for the job while Mr.. Pet
erson is the league candidate. 1t
seems that Mr.. Peterson did not file
his petition with the secretary of state
in time to get on the ballot. Now
along comes Mr.. Beisel with petition
to the supreme court asking permits
sion to have Mr.. Peterson's name put
on the ballot in order to give him
square deal at the polls. This is GER
tainly an innovation in politics as 1t
is unual for the opposition to take
every advantage of the opposing can
didate. Mr.. :Beisel wants Mr.. Peter
son to be licked right if he is licked at
all so that he can have no come back
in the: way of post mortems.. That
man Beisel is sport to say the least.

The removal Of stains is neces-
sary feature of the laundering and
general care Of clothing and other
household textiles. Nearly all stains
may be removed easily at home II re-
liable methods are known.
One Of the most important factors
is to apply the stain remover while
the stain is still fresh. Drying, ex-
lposure to air, washing and ironing,
all makes II harder to remove the
stain. The nature Of the stain should
be known II possible before its re-

mines the treatment TO be adopted.
An unsuitable stain remover may
"set" the stain so its removal be-
comes difficult or even impossible
Treatment Depends on Fabric.
The kind Of fabric on which the
stain occurs also should be known.
for the method Of treatment depends
much on the nature, color, weave, fin
ish and weight of the fabric. Do not
use strong acids on cotton, and even
diluted ones should be neutralized
afterwards with suitable alkali.
Care should be taken in the use %
alkali, as il weakens the fabric.
After any reagent rinse the fabric
well. Do not use very hot water on
wool or silk Rubbing also must
be avoided with these fabrics. Both
wool and silk are dissolved by strong
alkalis; borax or weak solution Of
ammonia is more suitable. Acids,
with the exception of nitric, do not
attack silk and wool readily
