Marinette Eagle: By mutual agree
ment of the newspaper publishers In
Marinette, no complimentary tickets to
travelling entertainments will be here
after received in payment for advertis-
ing or complimentary press notices, but
all shows will be required to pay the
regular price for advertising and the
publishers will pay cash for all tickets
they use in attending shows. This puts
each on a purely business basis and is a
reform which ought to have been
inaugurated long ago. Each publisher
binds himself under a penalty of ten
dollars to live up TO the agreement. \
simple announcement as news item
that a company may appear here in the
future, is not regarded as breach OF
the agreement. All printers through
out the state ought to enter into the
same agreement.

NEW BRIDGE.

1t gives us great pleasure to announce
to the people of Wood County that OIL
Saturday the 25th day of May we think
we will have the privilege of crossing a
bridge again after a vacation of over a
year. The erection of the new struct-
ure has been attended by number OF
unavoidable delays and mishaps but at
last by persistent and patient effort on
the part of Mr.. Johnson, the builder,
and his able corps of assistants we
regain our lost pleasure. We rejoice
over the fact that the new bridge is far
superior in architecture, strength and
power of endurance than the old one
and is more modern and metropolitan
in all its bearings. At this writing
"Wednesday morning. the second and
last span is completed except to Law the
joists and floor which will surely be
completed in two days. 1t is expected
that the Bridge Committee will make
necessary arrangements so that the
people may use the new structure on
Saturday as soon as the floor is
completed.
This Wood County Bridge question
has been the subject Of considerable
interest not only to the people of
Wood County but to the state. 1t
has passed through the State Legisla-
ture, Supreme Court and the honorable
bodv-known as the County Board. 1t
has engendered great feeling between
the residents of the Northern and
Southern portions of the county. 1t
has been the issue of County politics
and been the means of gaming and
losing laurels for different individuals.
While it has been the cause of inumer-
able SINS we are happy to say no blood
has been shed on it's account. While
the contest has been bitter and closely
fought it was decided by the higher
powers that the twin cities should stand
the cost of its erection and from that
time the interest has waned until it is
now entirely local. May the past be
buried with what remains of the old
structure and never come up again to
mar the political as well as the general
interests of the twin cities or the county
at large

The Champion Binders and Mowers.

Made by the Warder, Bushnell &
Glessner Co. and advertised in our
columns, are the most perfect machines
for the cutting and binding of grain and
the cutting of grass, as well as the most
durable harvesting machines made
Farmers know the advantage of having
first-class machinery, the kind that
does not break down or cause them
annoyance and delay in harvest. and
the Champion machines are that kind.
The Warder. Bushnell Glessner Co.
were among the first manufacturers to
make harvesting machines. The Cham
pions are not untried candidates for
public favor, they are used by our best
farmers and have long had the reputa-
ton for doing more work and of better
quality and lasting longer than any
other machines of this class.
