PREHN URGES
BETTER SPIRIT
HITS CANDIDATES WHO TRY
TO STIR UP HATRED
AND PREJUDICE

81 think it is wrong to try to open
up claimed wounds of prejudices of
war and to create sympathy thereby in
behalf of any candidacy" Arthur w.
Prehn, candidate for the Republican
nomination for district attorney, de-
clares in statement setting forth
his principles. what we should do is
to try to amalgamate all elements in
this country, looking to the future.
and helping to make the outlook as
bright as possible instead of creating
dissention, hatred and disharmony.
GAS it was the intention of our
forefathers to build up a race unique
to America, let us now create a spirit
of neighborliness and brotherhood in
stead of the opposite with its attend
ant evils. A government for any class
brings dissention, dissatisfaction anG
ruination. All elements must be treat
ed fairly and work unitedly for the
common good in order to make a pro-
gressive, prosperous and harmonious
country" i.4sissss
Mr.. Prehn is making thorough
tour of the county this week. Each
evening he is speaking in somer ura1
school district and last Sunday he
had several meetings to attend.
"Since my appointment as district
attorney by Governor Blaine Mr..
Prehn continues, 'I have appeared
fifty-four times in behalf Of the state
and the fines collected amount to 49,
200. | have never changed my poll
tics, am Marathon county man and
have had six years of years of expert
ence as assistant district attorney
under E. P. German
ST ask support from the voters of
Marathon county on basis of my rec
ord of service, experience and quail
fications. I do not wish to create
class or nationality hatred but it is
my purpose to serve all the people
and to serve. them in the best way I
know how. Governor Blaine appoint
ed me two months ago at which time
my opponent was an active candidate
and evidently, at that time, Governor
Blaine did not consider his appoint
ment an advisable one for Marathon
county" Mr.. Prehn adds a line in
his statement: 'Talk about Newber-
ryism; do you know that it costs
$500 a night for chimes and $1,000
for an automobile-a total of 81, 400
that some candidates are spending for
entertainment during the campaign"
The battle between Mr.. Prehn and
George W. Lppert for the Republican
nomination is the most intense of all
the local campaigns. The latter has
been on the stump for several weeks
and Mr.. Prehn, following the compile
tion of the Wisconsin Valley Fair and
Exposition, of which he was secretary,
Immediately commenced his campaign
addresses.

RETURNON SATURDAY
DIR. AND MRS. J. II. BRYANT
HAVE RETURNED FROM
LONG AUTO TRIP

DR.. and Mrs. Jesse R. Bryant and
their guests, Miss Halle May Bibbens
of Morgan City, Louisiana, and c. A.
Peterson, of Omro, father of Mrs. Bry-
ant, returned to Wausau last Satur-
day after a six weeks tour of the
west by automobile. They covered
over six thousand miles of territory,
enjoying excellent weather during
most of the trip, climbed most of the
mountains in the west, according to
the doctor, and all told felt well re-
paid for the time spent.
The Yellowstone trail was followed
by the party and five days were spent
in the national park. In the state of
Washington they motored through the
beautiful and picturesque Cascade
mountains, visiting many famous
points and then going into Oregon
where they enjoyed the scenery along
the Columbia highway, of which so
much has been said.
DR.. Bryant intended to attend the
national encampment of the Veter-
ans of Foreign Wars at Seattle, but
unfortunately, was unable to be there
at the time of it's sessions. 81 guess
there's little but of Gypsy in me,
said the doctor on his return, "for
always feel fine when I'm out OF
doors. Just the same we are glad
to be home"

BANKS WILL CLOSE
ON LABOR DAY AND
ON ELECTION DAY

On Monday, September 4th, Labor
day and on Tuesday, September 5th,
election day, all Wausau banks and
the Wisconsin Valley Trust company
will be closed. The letter announcing
this from Chas. E. Parker, cashier
of the American National~ bank, fol-
lows: "Inasmuch as both these days
are legal holidays on which neither
state nor national national banks can
be open, all Wausau banks and the
trust compny will be closed on these
two days. 1t has been customary for
our local banks to close Saturday
afternoons at 1890 o'clock, but mas
much as we will be closed these two
days, at a meeting of the banks it
was decided that as an accommoda-
tion to the public and by reason of
our closing, we would remain open
all day Saturday, September End"

is BACKED BY
STATE LEADERS
KARL MATHIE ENDORSED
BY WELL KNOWN
DEMOCRATS

Urging all Democrats to vote in the
Democratic primary Sept. 5th. the eby
being honest with themselves and to
their party, Karl Mathie, of this city
Democratic candidate for governor,
is entering the final five days of the
primary campaign. He is actively
backed by Colonel Robert B. Mccoy Of
Sparta and H. A. Moehlerpah of Mil
waukee, the last two Democratic can
didates for governor. Mr.. Mathie
speaks at Amigo Friday, In Wausau
Saturday evening and at Merrill Mon
day evening.
Drys and vets alike are lining up
behind Karl Mathie because they see
in him regular" Democrat who has
consistently supported his party and
its candidates irrespective of the liq-
uor issue which has been introduced
within the Democratic ranks. Lead
ers of the party believe that Mr..
Mathie's nomination will prove an op-
portunity far above the average for
the party in the fall election.
Active support and endorsement is
being accorded Mr.. MathIe by such
state wide Democratic leaders as Col.
Mccoy and Mr.. Moehlenpah, Gustav
Keller of Appleton, NJ. X. Reilly, ex-
congressman of Fond du Lac, Judge
Martin Lueck of juneau, John Kuy-
pers of DePere, Mrs. Edward Bowler
of Sheboygan, f. B. Schultz of Mil
waukee, Miles Riley of Madison, w.
A. Hume of Chiffon, EX-mayor Flem-
ming of Eau Claire, T. j. Flemming
of Milwaukee, and John F. Doherty,
chairman of the Democratic county
committee of Lacrosse
Mr.. Mathie's view of the wet and
dry issue is accepted generally as a
very liberal one and in his addresses
lie has expressed his willingness to
work for an expression of the peo-
pie through the ballot next spring.
Mr.. Mathie's appeal includes a plank
in favor Of racial and religious tol
Grafton as against the bigotry and ha.
red which he claims is being preach
ed by LaF'ollette Progressives. He
advocated consolidation of boards and
commissions on a business basis. A
professed dry, he nevertheless de-
clares that he is "a Democrat first"
and that he believes referendum on
the liquor question proper and justi-
fed. Mr.. Mathie declares himself un-
alterably opposed to the socialistic
program of the Nonpartisan league.

FORMER WAUSAU
MAN HONORED
ID. L. G0ODWILLIE NAMED
SECRETARY OF
EMBASSY

ID. L. GOodwillie, former resident
of Wausau, but now living in Chicago,
has been appointed by President
Harding as secretary of the embassy
to the Brazilian Exposition. Secreta-
ry of State Hughes is president and
heads the delegation, which includes
a number of men of national reputa-
tion, and which sailed for Brazil on
August oath from New York.
Secretary Hughes is the official rep
resentative of the u. S. government
He and the members of the embassy
go to return the visit which Dom
Pedro, emperor of Brazil, made to the
American centennial exposition al
Philadelphia in 1876, which certainly
is an act of sound diplomacy and wise
courtesy.
The relationship between these two
great republics has always been
friendly, the two countries have much
in common, the BriZilian constitution
is patterned after our own, and Amer
lean thoughts, ideals and purposes are
honored and respected there. We
were the first nation to recognize the
independence of Brazil from Portugal
and the first to recognize the estab-
lishment of the Brazilian republic.
The results have been mutually
beneficial and pleasant. We nave II
our sister republic a commercial, a.
we'll as a political friend, the re-
sources of Brazil, complement the re-
sources of our own republic and the
climates are very similar. We need
only closer understanding, closer
communication, and closer association
to bring about mutual be nefits.
Such visits as this of Secretary
Hughes and his associates is logical
method Of cementing this friendly as
sOciation, coming at such a period as
the present, when the South Ameri-
can republic is celebrating its one
hundredth anniversary as an indie
pendent nation, it naturally receives
more than ordinary attention, the ap-
pearance Of this embassy at the expo
sition as the representatives of the
United States will be one of the feat
ures of that celebration, it will be
hailed throughout Brazil and appre-
ciated by the Brazilian people, and we
congratulate Mr. Goodwillie in being
selected to such a high position for
such an important mission.
