SHIPPING IN AND OUT OF MANITOWOC
This Season Far Surpasses that of Last Year and
Shows a Gratifying Increase.
The Tonnage Marks the Record for this harbor, and
Shows this Port is Assuming First Place.
The lake shipping season has closed and it is interesting that the tonnage
mtering and clearing from this port this year exceeds that of last year; even
iguring only to Dec. 10 of the present season. For the year 1M99 the tonnage
mtering the port was 166690 M, as compared with • 1609882 in 1899. The clear
mces for this year were 1681971 as compared with 1088054 in 1M99. The figures
which up to the tenth of the month show a striking gain will be augmented
refore the month closes. This is the record year. The annua! report for 1900

JUDGE CRAITF; SHOULD

L Judge Craite is in a happy frame of
mind because the jail is practically
empty these days. The judge believes
that his presence on the seat of justice
goes a long way .to repress the ebul
litions of the evil doers. He says he
will continue to lie happy as long as
everybody behaves themselves, thus
not disturbing the serenity of his honrs
nor intercepting the pleasing flow of his
thoughts. It has been suggesied that
that the judge be presented with a pair
of white gloves as a recollection of this
unique episode in his judicial career.

COUNTY AND CITY
CANDIDATES.
Men Who Are Talked About for
Various Offices.
SEEKING JUDICIAL AND CIVIC HONORS.
A Republican Effort to Defeat Jud#e
Anderson.
E. 0. NASH HANKERS FOR THE PLACE
Judge Craile Will be a Candidate far Rcelec
lion to the Municipal court Other Men
W ho Would Like Office*.
There is considerable talk concerning
the spring elections, some politicians ad
vocating a non-partisan judiciary while
others are strictly aligned for straight
party nominations. The most interest -
ng, phase of the forthcoming contest is
an effort to be made to defeat Judge ,1.
S. Anderson, in the Republican conven
tion, for the nomination of county judge.
It is rumored on all sides that the .ndi
vidual back of this movement! is Edwin
G. Nash, who is said to haven hanker
ing after the place. It is hinted that
after Mr. Nash gets through (Jelling bis
friends how “Me and Mr. McKinley
chatted "and what “McKinley sai 1 to m ■
and what I advised him to do,” he talks
of the county judgeship.
It is also hinted thatH.Markham would
I like the place, and will make an effort
to secure the nomination. Judge And
erson, who has a strong pull in the Re
publican ranks will make a brisk tight to
j retain the place, and he is now busy tix
ing up his fences.
For same office some Democrats
are being talked of. It is mooted that
John Chloupek, county Democratic
chairman, might lie induced to take the
nomination if it were tendered him. Mr.
Chloupek is very strung man in the
county and numbers hundreds of friends
among the Republicans as we'l a- .-uiong
the Democrats. It is believed that he
would make a remarkable run, no mat
ter who is his antagonist. So far Mr
Chloupek's name lias been suggested by
I Ids friends, the attorney not having tak
en the initiative.
Chris Gielow, city treasuscr would al
so accept the nomination for county
judge if it were tenered him. Mr. Gie
low, too,is a popular man and would make
a good race if the Democratic conven
tion favored him, Mr. Giolow, of
course, is not a lawyer, but lie believes
the office can as legitim ib-ly and ju lici
ously he alministered by a layman asb\
an attorney.
Rumor is current that Mr Ruhr would
not be averse to having a-e ■ and term in
the mayor's dmir. that is to say if he
was urged to take it. Mr. Rahr was
nominated last time by the Democrats
and an effort was made to i ndorse him
at the Republican convention, but the
movement failed of materialization.
An avowed candidate fur the Demo
cratic nomination for mayor is Henry
Mulholland. The dry goods merchant
has a decided liking for the office of ma
yor, and this will he his second effort to
get the nomination. He was defeated
last time by the present mayor.
Judge ( raite is the one man talked of
for Democratic nomination for munici
pal judge. E. L. Kelley has his eye on
the Republican nomination for this place

■•HACK" WHITNEY MAY
GET THE JOB OF
TURNKEY UNDER BURT.
Sheriff-elect Burt upon the assumption
of office will appoint a turnkey to take
charge of the jail. It is reliably stated
that he has chosen for this office his
electioneering lieutenant, Hack” Whit
ney. At the present time Mr. Whitney
holds a small state job, that of oil in
spector, but he Itelieves the more con
genial as well as the more lucrative ap-,
pointment will be that of jailor. Then
it is intimated that the turnkey job
might be a stepping stone to further
political preferment. At all events
“Hack” is slated for the turn key’s job

Baking
Powder
Economy
The manufacturers of Royal
Baking Powder have always declined
to produce a cheap baking powder
at the sacrifice of quality.
The Royal is made from the
most highly refined and wholesome
ingredients, and is the embodiment
of all the excellence possible to be
attained in the highest class baking
powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs only
a f:fir price, and is cheaper at its
price than any similar article.
Samples of mixture 1 ; made in imitation of baking
powders, but containing alum, arc frequently dis
tributed from dour to door, or given away in
grocery stores. Such mixtures are dangerous
to use in food, and in many cities their sale is
prohibited by law. Alum is a corrosive jKiison, and
all physicians condemn baking powders containing it.
