GLAD TO DO 1T

The Review is in receipt of a letter
from H. III. Humphrey, of GAINESVILLE
in which he states that in mentioning
DR.. Garfield, Senior LaFollette's oppon-
ent for U. S. Senator, some weeks ago,
that we did him an injustice in saying
that he was a native Of Kentucky and
who had always voted there. Mr.
Humphrey asked that we correct the
statement as it was an error, and en-
closed one Of Mr. Ganfeld's campaign
cards which gives the following in
formation regarding him.
Born on farm in Iowa in 1873.
Lived on farm twenty-five years.
Two brothers on farms today.
Graduate of Cornell College.
Graduate Mccormick Seminary.
Student Chicago University.
Came to Wisconsin in 1899
Married and made home in Green
Bay, 1901.
President of college, executive ex-
perience seven years.

Political Science, eleven years.
Active leader in many state and nat
ional religious, moral and social well
fare organizations.
Representative on National Econo
mic League.
Family one son, four daughters
all born in Waukesha.
Present Waukesha.
We gladly print the above tt. correct
any harm that may have been caused
by our misstatement Of the facts, and
to say to Mr. Humphrey and others
that, having seen, the, statement in two
anti-LaFollette papers before our arti-
Gle appeared we presumed it to be
true

AN APPRECIATION

After an illness of many months
duration, marked by unfinching forti-
tude and never ending patience in the
face of great suffering, William Albert
Bradford passed quietly to his long
rest August II, aged So years.
In him there died man of rare
worth and sterling character a land
mark in Northern Wisconsin history
a man described by Captain Chas. H.
Henry, of Eau Claire, as lone of the
best men I ever knew true as steel at
all times and in all places"
1t is we'll that we pause for NOM
ent and consider the life and character
of a man who lived so CALAMITY and
successfully, though that success be
measured by usefulness rather than by
an accumulation of dollars and cents.
ZAP Bradford was born at Westfield,
Wis, April s, 1854, and came of pio-
neer stock. A few years later the fami-
ly moved to Wausau, then called Big
Bull Falls and consisting of a scant
half dozen dwellings. There, in those
unsettled times, the elder Bradfords
were leaders in shaping and elevating
the moral tone Of the place.
The senior Bradford was appointed
Government Indian Agent at Lac du
