The Milwaukee Journal hasan assum ing way of undertaking the political classification of state newspapers from which it quotes. The Wausau Pilot credits a paragraph: “Milwaukee Jour nal (Shifter).” —Evening Wisconsin. The President’s message was read in Congress yesterday and is the usual statement oi conditions which have to be met, according to republican ideas, of course. The document contains about 14,000 .vords. It was given out in advance so that it could be stereo typed and sent around to the papers of the country. The report of the L T . S. Assistant At torney General, L. A. Pradt, of the De partment of Justice in the Court of Claims, has just been issued, a copy of which is on our table. It shows that during the year ending October 31st, 1903, there were filed 1,219 cases, claim ing about $10,578,722.57. TMs would indicate that our fellow townsman's position in Washington is far from being sinecure. Cleveland and the Republicans. Wo knew, or thought we did, all the time, why the finanancir.l backers of the republican party wanted the demo crats to nominate Grover Cleveland in 1904. It wa9 because they knew' be would deal leniently with the trusts, and combines designed to monopolize steel products, oil, sugar, etc., in which these backers of the republican party were interested. But it was some thing of a coniiudrum with us why thatother wing of the republican party, which may be called the Roosevelt wing, and the newspapers representing that wing, were so very nice in their remarks about Cleveland, and so very sure that the democratic party could do nothing better than nominate him. But we now have an explanation of this, too, from Senator Hanna who since Mr. Cleveland’s letter was published, is re ported to have stated, substantially that Southern Democratic Senators had told him that Cleveland coisld hardly carry even the southern states. This news was published iu the Chicago Record Herald, one of the leading republican dailies, and we make the following quotation therefrom: A number of southern Democratic senators have told Mr. Hanna that if Mr. Cleveland wore to be nominated they could not guarantee Democratic success in their dates. One of the most prominent men from Texas, represent ing his state iu Congress, declared that in his opinion the nomination of Cleve land would result in To as giving q er electoral vote to President Roosevelt. Phis mau said scores of p-ominent Democrats of his acquaintance had told him they would vote for Roosevelt if Cleveland were made their party candi date, and a number of them added that they would not only bolt the ticket, but would take the stump for Roosevelt. Yes, and there are more democrats in the Northwestern and Western states than in the South, who would take the stump for Roosevelt, as against Cleveland for, little as they may ap prove a good many of Mr. Roosevelt’s ideas and acts, and bizarre way of treat ing serious public questions, they kuow that he is naturally ineliued to be honest and straightforward, and that he has a manhood, which Mr. Cleveland is so far from possessing that he does not even comprehend it. Cleveland saw a cyclone of demo cratic wrath coming and got into the cellar. The Republican press will prob ably cease its fulsome flattery of Grover. Advertised Letters.

The Ladies Aid society of St. Paul’s church conducted its annual sale of fancy articles last Friday afternoon in the basement of the church. Its mem bers were quite suecesfnl in disposing of the articles offered for sale and the funds of the treasury were increased accordingly. A joyous heart is a permanent bless ing Our prices on wall paper, paints, oils, glass, brushes, etc., make the heart glad.—(). C. Callies. The Ladies’ Aid society of the Presby terian church held an annual sale on Friday last, which concluded with a supper. Tables were arranged in the basement of the church on which were displayed fancy articles, flowers, candy, etc., presided over by the society's members. The sale and slipper was liberally patronized which resulted in a neat profit to the ladies, in fact it was one of the most successful fairs ever held by the society. Frank Garske, of McDill, Portage county, was in the city today on his way to Rhinelander for the purpose ot ascertaining if a Minnie Garske that died there last week was his sister. She claimed to be a resident of Wausau but no such person is known to have lived here. I’he young man has a sister, Anna, away from home, whom the family has not heard from for some time, aud under the conditions of the death of the young woman mentioned above, it is natural to suppose that she wished to hide her identity and thus gave a ficticious name and address. Dr Turbin, the eminent German specialist and surgeon, will be at the Beilis House, December 29th. An Ample Kitchen. Whnt is said to be the largest kitchen In England is that of Raby Castle, the seat of the Duke of Cleveland. It is 36 feet square, having three chimneys, one for the grate, a second for the stoves. Slid the third for the great caldron. The roof is arched, with a small cupola in the center. It has five windows, from each of wnich steps descend, but only in one instance to the floor, and a gallery runs round the whole interior of the building. The ancient oven lias a diameter of 15 feet. Vast as this kiteben is, it must have been sometimes taxed by the hospital ity of former ages, for in one of the apartments of the great cattle 700 knights were upon one occasion enter tained at the same time.
