Ho was the original lessee of the property and when his financial downfall came a year aeo his obligations were acsumed by Harvey Bros, of Cleveland. It was reported that his Milwaukee real estate deals were the cause of his -downfall. This is denied by A. J. Harvey of the firm of Harvev who savs that his baseball and his mininer investments were the cause of his troubles.

"H's real estate ventures will be a s-rcat. factor in his financial 'comeback' berause they are beinsr turned into assets," declared Mr. Harvey. There is no need to wait. Concrete block cm -z It now and stuccoed later if you wish.

He expects to leave not laier than April 15, however. A crew will be aboard as soon as Captain Gunderson finds that he can put them to work on overhauling the Edward Buckley tor the season and keep the men for the trips. The steamer carries lumber and coal, but It is lumber that Captain Gunderson has booked for the season, more than the coal.

ANNUAL A SERIOUS QUESTION. Th- Press docs not yi-M to anybody in its loyalty to the flag and country, and it r-eatedly urged upon the yeople to stand back of I'rcsiih nt Wilson and congress in their every act. Tt urges that to-day with every force that a vigorous -pen can In urging this upon the people we do so with confidence that congress will not overstep its authority and that President Wilson will act in the interests of the whole people, the same as he has done up to this time. If the time comes when we lose respect for the head of a nation, then the day. has arrived when that nation seeks no longer to conmnand the respect of the masses.

A great many newspapers, some in this state, and many in others, are criticising Senators Stone and La Follette for their seemingly lack of patriotism. The IVess does not believe that Senator La Follette tried to do other than his duty, as he saw it. Perhaps he erred, and then again perhaps others erred who opposed him. The question of armed neu-irality is a serious one, to say the least. Tf we are entitled to the freedom of the seas, then whv should we arm? If, as it is contended under international law, a war zone is a violation of international law.

would it preserve peace, by going Into that zone prepared to wage war? Senator La Follette and others who stood with him, iVlt that the arming of ships, brought us not only a step nearer to war, but right into the maelstrom and they opposed it upon those grounds. Fntil we understand every phase of this question, it is unfair to criticize. It is an easy matter for men to tell what they would do, in like circumstances, but clothe them with similar authority, and put them to the test, and perhaps they too would hesitate before voting to arm our ships. It men of great will power, men of iron nerve to undergo what Senator La Follette has recently undergone. He is entitled to a fair hearing before a verdict is rendered.

The Press gives to Wilson credit for a wonderful itdoes not-iiy bliudnoss want to say that because La Follette opposed him. on the question of aamed neutrality, that the.latter These, are; trying hours, and in determining right and us seek 'first- to know the facts.

That should our safeguard. -Then if an American ship is torpedoed, we are justified in "declaring war and the. will back of that declaration, regardless of the nation we have to" No matter what the emergency, too much power in the hands of ojie tnoii. who holds the destiny of a hundred million people; is not in accord with the principles laid down "by our forefathers.

Men came-from foreign, shores to get from the one man government, and We cannot delegate away that power, with fairness to the people of this land. 4.mceiower is delegated, and unwisely, it is not an tasy matter to remedy it. Congress can convene any time and give the president-that power if it so. and newspapers as well as individuals understand this, but still "they' continue to make a mountain out of a mole-hill. -A filibuster can only win out.
