In Memory of the Years Gone
By

After having read the very interest
ing inspiring letters written by Uncle
Charlie Johnston and others, pertain
ing to the days of the long ago, it is
the desire Of the writer to express a
few thoughts along upon this subject
If the good editor will allow us a small
space in his very valuable paper.
DO we, Of the present day. really
have much of an idea what the days
Of the long ago really were?
Those days, far gone and too often
forgotten. were mighty times, red let
ter days on the calendar Of years.
Times and conditions gone. alas, for
ever. The bitter part we do not re-
gret having made its departure. but
oh, the sweet part. the good part also
has faded away into its allotted space
of by gone centuries.
1t is with my very great sorrow we
note the passing of the sturdy old
pioneers Of the early days Of our coun-
try. OF course 1t is with much sad
ness we note the departure OF anyone,
but there is an added feeling of regret
and sorrow mingled into our mourning
the starting on the long. long. trail'
Of our dear old fOrefathers whose
toilings tanned this wild and wooded
land to make It ft as a homeland for
himself and his many sons and daugh-
ters. who are now enjoying the fruits
Of his labors.
The writer never had the pleasure
of living in the good old days of the
long ago, but has literally lived over
and over the early days Of this cQun-
try, many times while intently listen
ing to the stories Of our grandfathers,
grandmOthers, aunts, uncles and many
other old citizens for which we have
always had very great feeling Of
respect and gratitude.
How well do remember, as my
grandfather told me about the Civil
war, following him under the command
of Gen Sterling Price through south
ern Missouri and northern Arkansas.
In my Imagination | saw him fall
wounded in the leg in an engagement
at Prairie Grove, Ark. In one engage

Paper Bought
In the fall Of 1897 a few friends
of our campaign bought a country
weekly published at Madison,
called Old Dane. 1t was necessary
to select an editor and the choice
was an easy one.
From the very beginning we had
not only the support Of practically
all university men throughout the
State. but Of substantially all Of
the students old enough to be in
terested.
The spirit of democracy pervad-
ed university life, and a strong
body of these fine, clean, able fel-
lows have been conspicuous in all
the progressive fights of Wiscon-
sin from that day to this one Of
the ablest and most active of these
students was a hoyish-iooking tow
headed Norwegian-later Congress
man John NJ. Nelson. He came
from a farm in the town Of Burke,
few miles out OF Madison.
lie had taken rank as student
and a debater in the university
and was one Of the many students
hfs
in the Haugen campaign. and like
wise in the campaign OF 1896. He
accepted the position Of editor OF
Old Dane. the name of which we
changed 10 The state.
We now had a medium through
which to maintain from week TO
week a campaign of education and
the time seemed AT hand TO pro
nose a constructive program. A
new heading for the paper was de
signed. which set forth the follow
ing platform:
Protection for the products OF
the factory and the farm.
Sound money, dollars worth
dollar
Reciprocity in trade.
Adequate revenues for State
ard Nation.
Equal and just taxation Of all
the property of each individual
and every corporation transact
ing business within the state.
Abolish caucuses and conven-
lions. Nominate candidates by
Australian ballot at q primary
election.
Enact and enforce laws to pun
ish bribery in every form by the
lobby in the Legislature and
wherever it assails the integrity
Of the public service.
Prohibit acceptance by public
officials OF railroad passes, sleep
ing car passes. express, telegraph
and telephone franks.
Enact and enforce laws max
ing character and competency
