ANNOUNCEMENT
To the Public:
The county of Vernon now has pending: in the
supreme court a most important case against the
county of Monroe, another about to be appealed,
and a third more than likely to be determined by
the high* st court in 1911 The first case will de
termine the liability for the support of an incura
bty insane person for life and involves an amount
of money enoal to the district attorney’s salary
for many years. These esses have t ' won by
me in the lower courts and I have prid. enough
to des’.-e to win them in the supreme court. The
work incident to their preparation and trial de
volves exclusively upon me as district attorney.
I fully tealize that the public does pot owe me
anything, and, upon the contrary, that I am great
ly Indebted to the people at large, but if it ia de
sired to hove me finish the work as to these cases,
thus well begun I shall be pleased to serve you
another term, and for such reasons announce my
self a candidate for district attorney.
Thanking you. I am.
Very truly.

m DEFEATED REFORM BILLS
Maintain Big and Expansive Lobby at
Madison to Defeat County Op
tivn and Do Soma Log-
Rolling.
BY J. EMORY STREET.
How long and bow hard waa the fight
which freed Wisconsin from railroad
domination. Is still fresh in the minds
of the people.
That the fight resulted In complete
victory for the people Is evidenced by
the fact that the railroads no longer
maintain a lobby at Madison when the
legislature is in session, and their hand
is no longer seen in Wisconun poli
tics
And It Is better so. Even the rail
roads admit this.
However, Wisconsin Is not yet free
from the domination of large Interests
tn politics. The most profound men
ace now confronting the people of Wis
consin fg the domination of brewers In
politics. In their boldest days tu# rail
roads never dared to demar. j a writ
ten pledge of the candidate for the
legislature. Hut. the luewera have
boldly adopted this plan and through
an organization which poses as thw
Personal Liberty League, they have
demanded a written pledge of every
candidate for the legislature. They
have not been content to stop at this.
They have attempted to secure slml
pledges from candidates for all offices
from coroner to Lulled States sena
tor.
This was particularly true In the
campaign of 1908. And iu the legis
lative session that followed, the hrew.
cry lobby was particularly obnox
ious its registered lobyists and a host
of iiFsistanl lobbyists who were not
registered spent many thousands of dol
lars in Madison during the session of
1909.
They controlled absolutely about
sixteen members of the legislature.
Through the pressure they were able
to bring to bear, they controlled stilt
othe.s And by a system of logroll
ing (hey were xhle to defeat ihe county
option law in tho rennle.
The influence of ihe lobby, however,
did not end with the defeat of the
county option law. The brewery log
rolling bee lasulted in the defeat of
the Milwaukee home rule httla and the
binder twine bill, it ts not necessary
al this time to consider ihe inertia of
either the Milwaukee borne rule bill
or ihe tdnder twine bill. In till* con
□ eitlon It is nnly Important that the
brewery lobby was lending lo other
things than their own Dus,ness.
The brewery lobby has behaved Just
like the lobby nf other great interests.
It not only lias attempted lo thwart
the will of ihe people In regard tn leg
islation regulating the liquor traffic,
hut It alsii has Inter(ered with other
legislation, in other words, btewery
domination has laken tlie place ot rail
road domination.
Someone may ask. how can county
option relie-e this situation? The an
swer Is plain County option takes the
liquor question wot of Mate politics
and makes It purely a county ques
tion This has been the experience of
Ihe states which have adopted county
option as a solution of the liquor prob
lem
Reports from various parte of Wis
consin and even from Milwaukee In
dicate that many people who helleye
In * wide degree of personal liberty
strongly resent the presence of the
breweries In Wisconsin politics. Re

those who obtect to brewery domina

Hs Aroused Aviators,

Enthusiastic sportsmen, with a han
kering after aerial navigation, are
thoroughly aroused, for the New York-
Chicago aeroplane rare appears a cer
tainty. The J26.PCO prize is as good
as raised, (he national and state aero
nautical organizations are making
plans, and Ihe race may take place by
the middle of July.
A mammoth meeting of the Ameri
can Aeronautical association and the
various state organizations has been
called for June 22 and will take place
In New York. Definite plans for the
raco will be made then, and New York
and Chicago committees appointed to
make final arrangements. The date
will be set and all entries received.
The race will be open to any form
of air craft but it is n'.t expected that
anything but aeroplanes win compete.
A number of Chicagoans are elated
oyer the project and have Informed
John C. Shaffer, who is pushing the
enterprise, that they are willing to glvq
freely of tbeir time and money for the
event. Three Chicago men have
placed orders for aeroplanes to enter
'he race, and they are considering rld
in the machines themselves.
What s Summer Cold May De
A summer co)d if neglected is just as
apt to develop into bronchitis or pneu
monia as at any other season. Do not
neglect it. Take Foley's Honey and
Tar promptly. It loosens the cough,
soothes and heals the inflamed air pas
sages, and expels the cold from the
system. A. J. Johnson.

MISS JESSIE M. FHA7.EE.
MISS JESSIE M. FRAZEE, R. R. S,
or boxß2, Gilman, 111., writes:
“I wish to recommend Peruna as a
wonderful medicine.
“After suffering with every ailment
that one could be afflicted with, I be
oame so nervons I could hardly bear to
think. My stomach would give me
great distress, and I had catarrh of the
bronchial tubes and throat.
“I began taking this valuable medi
cine and found almost Immediate relief.
I am well and hearty, and have not felt
so well for years.”
Peruna is not a nervine. It does
not act as a temporary stimulant
for the nerves. The only way that Pe
runa could possibly relieve nervous
ness is to relieve the condition on which
the nervousness depends.
Take, for Instance, the case of Mise
Frazee, of Illinois. Her nervousnos*
was undoubtedly caused by the condi
tion of her stomach and bronchial
tunes. Peruna relieved her nervous
ness by regulating the action of the
stomach and mitigating the caUrrii of
the bronchial tubes. Her nervorn uesa
disappeared simply because the organs
of her body resumed their ordinary
functions.
Good nerves depend upon good blood.
Good blood depends upon normal diges
tion. It is claimed for Peruna that it
will produce a vigorous apperite and
regular digestion. There is no want of
evidence on this subject.

And aaid: “Your liver’s out of whack.
The thing you need to make you smile
Is to turn in and BOOST AWHILE.”
That made Bill think. To our amaxa
He started singing this town's praise.
