I have thus far been too busy
to write the letter promised in
mj- last one; and this is not the
one, but it is a recital of some
political talk.
Lately, Congress has done
very little- except routine v.-ork.
Next fall tin' 62nd Congress Is
to be elected, and much time is
being taken on the floor in [*ren-
eral debate to make speeches
for home com.suniption; that is,
to furnish campaign material at
public expense. A great deal
of time is given to determine
how to make the people believe
that Congress is being run in
the best way but the people
cannot be deceived Into believing that it is.
There is much talk about the
"Insurgents sating the President's hands.'' Those are Associated Press reports, headers who do not already know,
should learn the difference be*
ii plate matter, Associated
Press reports, and Editorials.
Any editor will be triad to show
tiie difference. When the reader
once knows, he can tell at a
glance the difference between
the tomato and the potato plant.
Anyway, the plate matter and
tlu- Associated Press reports in
your papers are frequently main pulated into a system of \ -
;ption, having concealed be
hind it the selfish purpose of the
selfish Interests. But the Insurgents, the press reports to the
contrarv notwithstanding, are
not the ones eating out of the
President's hands. The hisur-
ovtits are e-atine-; out of
pie's hands, and will se-rw the-
people only. There is neither
agreement nor disagreement between Uu- President and Insur-
qnestions are left to
be seUle'd as they arise.
It is odd to hear some making
unfavorable   comments   on   the
powers possessed by the Czar
oi Russia ami some otherrulers,
when these same persons woulel
[embers of Congress
support   the  President right or
wrong.    Of what avail is a rep-
atative  government, if one
man   shall   dictate*   tiie   whole
thing?   Ear better, if such is to
be the policy, to quit the mockery anel   save the-   expense, and
let the President do it all. Make
him alone responsible if he is to
Vie boss.    This  is not  intended
to rellect on the President either, but on the practice of calling
this  a   representative   government and demanding that  the
representative's shall follow tlu
policy   of   one   man.     Why   do
some criticise- the old king-power of making law ami at the same
time criticise'  members of Congress, created by our Constitution, ii" they have  opinions that
vary   witn   the President?    Are
we   to have   a shadow   without
the- aubstai
The truth of ihe Insurgents'
position is that they hold te) the
principles e>i goi ernment by and
for the people, and they will
advocate    anel   support   every
measure, ami use every means
to secure such measures, as shall
seem to be Tor the common welfare, and will work with the
President to that end. They
value the   good   work of every
officer from the President down. ' lnK

Pierz vs. Vawter
A game of basket ball was
played at Vawter last Saturday
night between the Pierz team
ami a quintet from the vicinity
of Vawter, resulting in a score
of 24 to 10 in favor of Pierz.
According to reports it was a
sort of rough and tumble affair
played with little regard for the
rules of the' ;raine.
It is understood a return came

next Sunday.
may be taken on each section
of any bill. They do not want
tin- practice kept up, of introducing bills with bad features
1'iiti'rwoven with the good, and
be compel led either to reject all
or accept all. They want the
opportunity to amend by striking out the bad and inserting
additional good sections. In
brief, they want the same principle to govern in legislation as
govern persons in making contracts. Go overall that is involved and agree by majority
consent to consider every part,
in detail, and then if the whole
seems the best that may be had.
and that is better than we then
ha ve'without'jit, let it be enacted, and then depend on the fu
ture to further improve the situation. There is plenty of time
to consider important, bills by
confining debate- to the questions up for consideration.
The   ii iople  are the government, and  they naturally want
Shortly before going to press
we learn that a deal has been
consummated whereby Dr. Arthur Kahala, formerly of Crook-
aton, Minn., and more recently
of Boise, Idaho, assumes the
practice of Dr. Edward' Seguin
of this place for a period not to
exceed two years. The deal
has been pending for some days
but nothing definate was given
out, in fact, no agreement was
reached until today.
Dr. Kahala is a stranger in
this section but is well known
in the northern part of the
state where he had a lucrative
practice and won for himself
an enviable reputation as a
skillful surgeon. He aiso was
assistant surgeon for the Great
Northern R. R. Co. -for two
years with head quarters at St.
Paul.
Dr. Seguin has made arrangements to locate at New Munich
as soon as he can get his   busi-
a Hairs   straightened    up

He has practiced medicine
here during the past six years
and has worked up a large
and lucrative practice. He

highest esteem here and mail, will regret to loose them

OLD SETTLER DEAD
Nickolaus Friesinger, who for
over twenty years has resided
in and near this city, died this
morning (Tuesday) at the home
of his daughter, Mrs. M. Lent/.,
on Fifth street southeast. The
deceased had been in ill health
for some time and for the passed
few months the end has been
expected by his relatives. Mr.
Friesinger was 71 years of age
and is survived by a wife and
six   children.    They  are  Peter,

these' officials  are servants not
masters.      |
Now that it has become known
by Cannon's old supporters thst
he Is to be retired thru the power of adverse public sentiment,
it is almost pathetic to see them
ing cover by getting
away from him. It shows the
value of publicity to make those'
good who otherwise prefer to
be against the people.
Nochange in the postage rate

pass Congress. The light against
the tax on Oleomargarine may
become a very aggressive one.
There are indications now that
it will. The great Beef Trusts
will support it with all their
power.
The remainder of the session
is likely to be interesting, but
so many are involved in the Coming election that I fear that we
shall not make- much progress
in legislation, however hard the
President may recommend.
The past ten days 1 have had
the pleasure of receiving many
visitors from the Sixth district.

for Minnesota is far superior;
but it does not physically kill
off many Members of Congress,

able to enjoy a visit without

Mr. Friesinger is a native of
( \-fiiiany. After moving to this
country he came to Illinois,
where he lived until coming to
this city, lb' was a weaver by
trade and followed his trade
until ill health caused him to
cease.
The' funeral will be heldThurs-
day morning at 8:30 from the
Sacred Heart church.—Transcript.
Last Friday morning, shortly
after the lire was started in the
Perochial school house a blaze
was discovered on the roof and
for a time there was considerable excitement as the tire was
difficult  to get   at and   it  was
feared the building could not be            _
saved.     However  the   fire de- jj„-the businfeHs''at
partment soon arrived upon the'
scene and the blaze was exting-
wished before it done much damage.
The fire was caused by burning' cinders from the chimney
dropping upon the roof.

Bends Voted Down.
The election held at Onamia
on January *Ji). for the purpose
of votin'j, $1*5,000 bonds for roads
and bridges was decided in the
negative by a vote of 20 to 10.
It is claimed that in the township of Onamia, about 95 per ct.
of the land is owned by nonresident speculators.
Under such conditions it is
difficult to understand why the
proposition was voted down, as
the burden of expense would
fall upon the speculators and
the residents would have the
value of their land greatly enhanced with little cost to themselves.
