should prcud and be glad to have

He then read three successive roll

which he had proposed to the rail
rond Mil. In each case the name of
Chnrter Convention Tonight.

This evening the
charter
convention will be held at the
court house, commencing nt
7:30 o'clock, nnd nil who are In-
tercsted In the proposed changes
are Invited to bo present and
take part In the discussion. It
I understood that Mayor Jnmes
A. Fee will preside during the
meeting. Thus far but little
opposition, If any, has been do-
veloped to the changes propos-
tal by the council. Tho only
point upon any objection Is lln-
hie to bo met In the Increasing
of the maximum tax levy from
7 to 0 mills. 4
Fulton was with those opposed, while
with one exception, Gearln had voted
fr tho adoption of the amendments
All of rhe amendments had been de
feated by a vote of 40 to 27, the
democratic senators having voted for
the amendments.
' Tho reading of the roll calls came
as a somewhat dramatic climax to
the address of the evening and the
large audience waited almost breath
lessly while the names were read.
However, no demonstration of any
kind was made and the names of
Senators Fulton, Gearln and Ankeny
were read with the same cadence as
the others.
Hrllllant and Powerful.
As a public speaker Senator La
Follette' Is an unusual man. While
short In stature there is a strength
s.nd magnetism about him that ug
geiu tho lion he has proven himself
to be. There Is a suggestion of the
actor about him which Is especially
noticeable at the opening of his ad
dress. Bui as he proceeds that is
forgotten and one Is held entranced
by his argument. In his address last
night Senator La Follette had the
appearance of striving earnestly to
be cautious In his statements and
fair to the interests he opposes. Af
ter making a statement he Invariably
produced facts to substantiate the
same and he took care not to let him
self he misunderstood as an enemy
of wealth in general, but instead as
one whs opposes the undue Influence
of wealth upon the legislation of the
country. On the railroad question
he declared he first favored the con
trol of railway systems by the gov
ernmout, but that should such be
found a failure he believed that gov
ernment ownership offered the only
remedy.
It Is not difficult to see the source
of Senator I.a Follette's strength and
to understand how he has been able
to sway the state of Wisconsin as he
has. Tei any Impartial observer It Is
apparent that ho Is sincere and there
can he no doubt of his courage and
honesty. In the role he has taken
he Is nn exponent of the common
good, striving with all his might to
rouse the country to the danger that
besets It and valiantly doing all he
can to hold back the horde that Is
seeking te override the liberties of
the people.
At the lecture last night many of
the local friends of Senator Fulton
were noticeably abpent. However, ln
spite of that fact the large Christian
church was crowded and the "address
was a fitting climax to the serif, of
lectures given here this season. Sen
ator La Follette was introduced by
Judge S. A. Lowell and aside from
the latter the following men occu
pied seats upon the platform: Con
gressman W. R. Ellis. Lee Teutsch,
T. T. Geer, Dr. C. J. Smith and Bert
Huffman.

A vast fund of personal knowledge is really essential to the achievement of
the highest excellence in any field of human effort.
A Knowledge of Forms, Knowledge of Functions and
Knowledge of Products are all of the utmost value and in questions of
life and health when a true and wholesome remedy is detired it should be remem
bered that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, manufactured by the California Fig
Syrup Co, is an ethical product which has met with the approval of the most em
inent physicians and gives universal satisfaction, because it is a remedy of
Known Quality. Known Excellence and Known Com
ponent Parte and has won the valuable patronage of millions of the Well
Informed of the world, who know of their own pVrsonal knowledge and from
actual use that it is the first and best of family laxatives, for which no extra
vagant or unreasonable claims are made.
This valuable remedy has been long and favorably
known under the name of Syrup of Figs and has attained to
world-wide acceptance as the most excellent family laxative. As
its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well known
to physicians and tho Well Informed of the world to be the
beat we have adopted the more elaborate name of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna
the remedy, but doubtlessly it will always be called
for by the shortei name of Syrup of Figs and to get
its beneficial effects, always note, when purchasing.
