QUEENSTOWN, Ireland, Oct. 90
The body of Lord Mayor MacSwiney
landed here from the steamer Rath-
more today. 1t was received by the
Urban council and thousands of in
habitants. Armed troops were pres
ent.
Local civil and church authorities
refused to accept the coffin and the
railroad men refused to transport the
body to work with military escort,
the admiralty therefore requisitioned
a tug, upon which the body will be
taken to Cork.
Business was suspended and strong
indignation was expressed at the
British governments action in divert
'ng the body instead of allowing it
to proceed by way of Dublin to Cork.

". \. BROOKS IS
WELL QUALIFIED
FOR SECOND TERM
first Tern, Has Demonstrated
His Complete Fitness for Of
fee; Economy Has Been
ShcWn Many Times; Citizens
Endorse Him.

The office of supervisor is one of
great responsibility, and calls for the
exercise of the highest qualities of
business ability, together with an ex-
perienced knowledge e the problems
peculiar to this county. The super
visors are. in effect, the board of di-
rectors of a $73,O00,0Q0 corporation,
and have the spending Of more than a
million dollars annually. The only
way that the qualifications of man
for this office may be known for a
certainty is by his record of achieve
ment. W. II. Brooks has served nearly
four years in the office, and has den-
onstrated practical understanding of
its problems. Of unquestioned integ-
rity, Mr. Brooks has handled the busi-
ness of his district economically while
building up an organization and equip
ment, which are now just coming to
maximum efficiency, and, under the
same direction, even greater results
may be expected during the next four
years. Mr.. Brooks is a pioneer who
has improved several ranches, and his
own business affairs are an example of
uniform success and sound judgment.
He has brought his practical knowl-
edge to bear upon the problems of his
public office with results which merit
a renewal of his commission at the
hands of the people next Tuesday.
The claim that has sometimes been
made that Mr.. Brooks is not a prac-
teal politician, we take TO be rec
ommendation rather than otherwise.
While slow to make promises, any
thing that Mr.. Brooks does promise
may be relied upon, and on general
principles the office of supervisor
should be considered first of all a
business responsibility.
The undersigned urge the reelection
of Mr.. Brooks with full assurance that
it will best serve the interests Of the
county at a time calling for honesty
conservatism, and judgment, as never
before in the county's history.

BARABOO HAS -FOUR
REPRESENTATIVES.
CARROLL COLLEGE

Baraboo has four represe ntatives at
Carroll college at Waukesha this year:
Miss Leora Gollmar, Stanford Richard
son, Vern Mcfarland, and Harlan Kel-
ley. Miss GOllmar will be graduated
next June with class Of thirty-five,
the largest in the history Of the col
1ege. All upper classes at Carroll show
remarkable increase in numbers this
year, and this is also true Of the
School Of Music which will graduate
a large class in June.
Mr. Richardson is out for inter-col-
legiate debating this year, and is with
the Carroll college mandolin club for
his second season. He holds the tennis
championship for 1920. Mr.. Kelley
has also entered the preliminary try
outs for debate and oratory and will
sing with the second bassos in the
glee club this season.
During her entire college career
Miss GoIlmar has played an important
part in college activities. She has
been particularly active in the college
Y. w. c.. A., Witawentin, and the
Athena literary society. Last year she
was a member of the annual "Hina-
kaga" staff, May Day chairman and
elected a representative college wom-
an. She will also be graduated with
the degree, Bachelor of Oratory, next
June when she receives her degree in
arts and sciences. She has been select
ed for leading role in "Rose Of Ply
mouth Town the annual mid-year

the college auditorium. Miss May Ran
kin, who is directing the play, is head

cess in Booth Tarkington's "Clarence",
and Miss Barbara Beaver, who appear

two of her most promising pupils.
The mid-year play was chosen this
year in honor of the Precautionary Gel
ebration of the Pilgrims landing at
Plymouth Rock. The celebration is of
especial Importance to Carroll college
because Of the unique position she
holds among other colleges of the mid
die west. Carroll belongs to that epoch
in American history when colleges
such as Washington and Jefferson
were named in honor of public men
who played conspicuous part in ear
ly colonial life. Carroll was founded in
1841 as Prairieville Academy, and
when chartered by the Territory Of
Wisconsin in 1846, the college was

RECENT LETTER
FROM GOLDEN
STATE FOLK

In renewing the News subscription
for her mother, Mrs. A. c.. Darby,
who resides on R. 2, Santa Cruz, Cal.
Mrs. J. C. Loney, also of R. e. Santa
Cruz, writes the following letter:
Even though we are so many miles
away, we do not forget Baraboo and
our many friends there and by your
paper we feel more in touch with
them.
We all like California very much
and Santa Cruz in particular. @
We are located at the foot of the
foothills and the country roundabout
is scenic,-the big water on the south
and the mountains the rest of the
way round.
We are so located that we do not
have either extreme of winter cold
or summer heat. Washington, D. c..
claims the most equitable climate in
U. S. is found at Santa Cruz.
My sister, Miss c.. Darby, has a
nice chicken ranch and 900 laying
hens and is doing very well this year.
Mother loves to go through the hen
house and count the eggs, especially
when they range from 200 to $50 ev-
cry night NJ
My husband and I own another
chicken ranch about blocks east of
mother and sister. We have capacity
for 700 but as this is the be-
ginning of our second year we have
only 900. We hope to increase to 900
or 1000 next year.
Editors note: Mrs. Darby is
daughter of the late w. H. Garfield,
who located on Skillet Creek, near
Baraboo, in 1912 and who later be-
came a resident of the village of
Lyons. Mrs. Darby and daughters
went to California a few years ago,
a brother of Mrs Darby having gone
there some years before.
