Factory, &c.

Now is the time for our Business
Mems Association to encourage men
Of capital, or at least assist parties in
tending to form stock companies for
manufacturing Industries, such, for
instance as would manufacture into
useful articles and utilize the raw ma
terial which is thrown into the river or
burned up, thereby giving employment
to the many who are out Of such be-
sides benefting the entire community.
Hundreds of articles, farm machinery
and implements are shipped into Wau-
sau and freights paid thereon which
might be manufactured here. We
have the raw material which could be
obtained free of costs frora our mills,
which is now burned up or thrown into
the river, thereby obstructing its rapid
course, to keep a match factory and
even clothes pin factory, busy the
whole year round. Besides for other
industries we have the most excellent
material for furniture factory, and

tions. Our hardwood timber is as fine
as any in the states and if it were
manufactured into useful articles it
would be a thousand times more
beneficial to the community than to be
chopped into cord and stove wood and
sold at So per cord, as has been
done during the last years.
Therefore, business men, awake and
turn over a new leaf and try your
utmost to keep up with this enterpris-
ing world. Do not let your neighbor-
ing villages that have nowhere near
the shipping facilities which we have,
gain advantages over US Wousau

The above article is so well written

The Wisdom of Economy.

Look most to your spending. No
matter what comes in, if more goes out
you will be poor always, The art is
not in making money, but in keeping
it; little expenses, like mice in barn,
when they are many, make great waste
Hair by hair the head gets bald; straw
by straw the thatch goes off the cot
tage; drop by drop the. rain comes into
the chamber. A barrel is soon empty
if the tap leaks but a drop a minute
When you begin to save begin with
your mouth; there are many thieves
down the red lane, The aIe-jug is a
great waste. In all other things keep
within compass. In clothes choose
suitable and lasting stuff, and not
tawdry fneries. To be warm is the
main thing, never mind the looks.
Never stretch your legs further than
the blanket will reach, or you will soon
be cold A fool will make money, but
it needs a wise man to spend it..
Remember it is easier to build two
chimney8 than to keep one agoing. If
you give all to back and board, there
is nothing left for the savings bank.
Fare hard, and work while you are
young, and you will have chance OF
rest when you are old,-Iypogrophic
advertiser,

Terrible Suicide.

About $50 o'clock last night the
news spread like wildfre throughout
the city that Matte Burton, one of
the inmates of the house of ill-fame
across the river had committed sui
eide in the calaboose. The girl came
over town in the afternoon and pro,
cured a ticket for Milwaukee. She
was very much intoxicated and by
some means or other missed the train.
Near six o'clock she met chief of po-
lice Boyer and requested him to lock
her up. Mr.. Boyer tried to persuade
her to take the freight which departs
at p. m, and leave town, but this
she positively refused to do. Mr..
Boyer then took her to the lookup and
went to his supper. Some children
were playing around the lookup and
the silk handkerchief was noticed tied
around the window grating They
became curious and proceeded to in
vestigate, when to their horror they
saw the poor girl hanging by the neck,
she having tied the handkerchief to
the window bar, stood on the bench,
put her head through the loop and
jumped down, The children called
Ralph Teal, and he informed Mr..
Newell Of the terrible fact. Policeman
Boyer was summoned who went into
the cell and cut the unfortunate girl
down and sent for DIR. LaCount, who,
on arrival, pronounced life extinct.
The deceased was a German yet in
her youth, possessed of more than
ordinary pleasant features, although
marred deeply by the destroying hand
of crime. Like all other women of
her class with a spark Of conscience,
life had ceased to be of any value to
her, and only in the embrace of death
could she find rest. She seemed loath
to leave Merrill for Milwaukee, think
ing perhaps over the many months of
wickedness spent in that city, and un-
doubtedly the thought of going from
worse to worse drove her to take her
own life. It is said that she was.some-
what insane, having at different times
shown conclusive symptoms. After
she is buried she will be forgotten
and the world in general will say it is
better thus but there is perhaps
mother waiting auxiously for her re-
turn and perhaps who will never learn
OF the terrible final. County
Advocate
This is the second or third death
which has occurred in the past few
years at the house spoken of above,
and it does seem that the people of
Merrill would wipe it out of existance
and stop the slaughter of human be-
ings within their midst.

Judge David Davis, once United
States senator and vice president says:
Every year every local paper gives
from 500 to $4,000 in free lines for
the sole benefit of the vicinity in
which it is located. No other agency
can or will do this. The local editor
in proportion to his means does more
for his town than any other ten men,
and with all fairness, man with man, he
ought to be supported, not because
you happen to like or admire his writ
ing, but because a local paper is the
best investment community can
make 1t may not be brilliant nor
crowded with great thoughts, but fnan
cially he is more of benefit in the
community than preacher or teacher
Understand US now we do not mean
morally or intellectually, bat financial
ly, and yet on the moral question you
find a majority OF the locai papers do
the most work for the least money Of
any man on earth Subscribe for your
local paper, hot as charity, but as an
investment Exchange.

Honor to Whom Honor is Due.

The many readers Of this poper who
have purchased seeds of f. \. Lang,
the Live Scotsman, Of Barahou. Wis,
will be pleased to learn of his recent
election to the MayorShip of that city.
Mr. Lang, is we believe, the Youngest
man ever elected to that important
position in the state, and although but
80 years of age, has proved himself TO
be a man Of sterling integrity, indomi-
table will and an earnest wide-awake
business man. BY his energy and
square dealing he has established in
this Northwestern country seed busi-
ness of which all should be proud, and
he should, and has, received the hearty
support of our Northern Farmers and
Gardners to such an extent that he
will the coming winter issue hundred
thousand catalogues, which will be
distributed gratultously to all who
apply. The confidence reposed in
him by his fellow citizens in electing
him to the Office Of Mayor, is positive
evidence that he bears the same repu-
tation at home that he does abroad.
and persons wishing live northern seeds
cannot do better than to secure them
from him.

In conversation with Mr.. Fred Clio,

In conversation with Mr.. Fred Cio-
suit last week the subject of purcbas-
ing the Rablin House property came
up. It was Mr.. Closuit's opinion that
the property would make fit place for
city market, with but little expense.
It was suggested that few of the busi-
ness men might purchase the property
for that purpose, or the city might
take hold of the enterprise and appoint
a weigher to take charge of it. The
question arose, would there be room
enough? and it was thought, there
would be, plenty. Let this matter be
talked up and some steps taken IN this
direction, or some other, to establish a
city market. Don't all move at once.
