Judge J. R Dean, a democrat, who was
appointed to th supreme bench by Gov
ernor Shailenberger and who was a demo
cratic nominee for re-eiection at the late
election and had not the support of many
democratic leaders, is to be trotted out

t rom the most reliable sources It was
learned today that as soon as he leaves

vill be grommed for the democratic nom
ination for congress in th Sixth district.
The democratic leader who Is doing the
boosting said the democrats usually lost
out in Custer and Dawson counties, but
that Judge Dean was so strong In these
counties that he would have no trouble In
getting therr away from the republicans.
No official statement has yet com from

-We certainly need a new capltoL" said
Mr. Watkins, "and th crowded condition
of th state university la very deplorable.
I have suggested to several of the business
men, to J. EL Miller, to A. W. Field and
to others, and they seem to think th plan
a good on, to secure a tract of land in
some of th additions to Lincoln, probably
Franklin Heights, and on that construct
a new capltoL
"Instead of tearing down tne present
building us it for university work. Foe
a few thousand dollars I am satisfied It
could be made to do very well for that
work. It la well lighted and would care
for the Increased work of th university
for a number of years to come.
"To build a new state nous In Franklin
Heights would not be placing tt too far
out. Th Wisconsin capltoi la much farther
from the business part of town than la
the proposed sit of th new capltoL
"It la necessary that we have a new
capltoi and that we have more room fat

of th eepaty attorney generaL Mr. Mar

but when his full name la used tt la
General Grant Martin, and the deputy at

"I was named during war times," said
Mr. Martin, "and my people were great
admirers of General Grant. So I was
named General Grant Martin. When I
entered college th president said:
" "'What is your full nam?
" 'General Grant Martin," I replied.
" "Weil, that don't go here, young man,'
he said. 'I will register you as G. Grant
Martin.'
' 'That don't go with me,' replied the
new student. 'I don't part my name in
the middle.' So th name was registered
Grant C. Mai'tin."
