Find No Clue to
Cause of Farm Fire

No clue has as yet been discovered
which might lead to any plausible
cause for the disastrous fire which
early Tuesday morning struck the barn
and silo of the C. A. Truesdell farm
near Paddock's lake and destroyed six
teen cattle, two horses and twenty
hogs, in addition to considerable farm
machinery in a large barn. Insurance
experts and investigators went over
the scenes on Tuesday morning and
afternoon but were unable to make any
discovery as to how the fire could
have started. Many theories were adj
vanced but in the absence of authen-
ITCHY these were ali discarded. In
surance carried on the property
amounted to $3.50. The total loss it
is estimated, will amount upwards of
$4,000.

SEEK TO ABOLISH
THE PARTY" CIRCLE
Lone Democrat in the Legislature Has
Bill to Make Voting Easier
in the State.

Madison, Wis. - Abolition of the
party circle in presidential, state, con-
gressional, legislative, and county cleo
lions is proposed in bill which As
semblyman James A. Cody, Amigo, the
only Democrat in the legislature, has
introduced in the assembly.
The measure is designed to facilitate
scratching" of party tickets. 1t has
the endorsement of Judge Martin L.
Lueck, Democratic candidate for gov
ernor against Governor Blaine last
November, and other leaders of the
party in this state.
Enactment of the bill would mean
that voter would have to mark a
cross after the name of every candl-
date whom he favored even if he wish
ed to vote straight ticket. Under
the present election laws, straight
ticket may be voted by placing cross
in the party circle.
Democratic leaders claim that the
existence of the party circle swelled
Governor Blaine's majority over Judge
Lueck if it did not actually save him
from defeat. If the party circle had
been abolished, they believe, the
ranks of "bolters" would have been
greatly increased.
Abolition Of the party circle also
would place independent tickets on an
equal footing with the regular parties
as far as states of electors were con-
cerned. The fact that voter who
supported the La Toilette Wheeler
presidential ticket last November had
to vote for each of the 10 electors
separately made difference of several
thousand votes between the top and
bottom of the electoral slate. Re-
publican and Democratic voters, on the
other hand, had only to mark cross
in the party circle.

urging upon all those interested in a
cleaner and better city" and upon
those who are interested in fuel eco

fit. The Catholic Woman's club,
through the chairman of its Civic
committee, DR.. Margaret Pirsch, also
