Deer Hunting.

Since the opening of the deer season
the first of October many of the
Beautiful" have been slain in this
immediate vicinity. Many parties have
been organized and gone out in search
of them and many will 60 before the
season closes with this month.
A party consisting of Messrs. Geo.
Ayshford, Joseph and Fred Snyder,
have already killed four and will
probably lead in the destruction as
they did last year.
Geo. Snyder and Taylor brothers are
another party who have already bagged
three.
Youston brothers have killed chuck"
weighing 225 pounds, probably the
largest one on record IN these parts.
He was beauty and attracted consider
able attention at the meat market
A party consisting of c. H. Finley,
Will Hanna, Dave Woodruff, DR..
Hougen and Geo. n. Wood have so far
bagged two. Geo. n. Wood shot one
and Dave Woodruff the other While
the other men had the extreme
pleasure of shooting several times but
with no favorable results. The Doctor
says they look about the size of horse
while running but some how they are
hard to hit.

The Bennet Law Bugaboo.

Commenting on the fact that the
Wisconsin democratic campaign book
makes the Bennett law the chief issue
this fall, the Manitowoc Pilot dem J
says: ''For heavens sake, have the
four years of democratic administration
been so barren of results that we must
60 to the political graveyard for an
issue?
''The person responsible for this
ghostly injection mistakes the temper
of the people on this educational ques-
ton. There is feeling of shame on
their part that a law so beneficial
should have been treated so hars!lly
1t is unfortunate for the democratic
party that it came to power with the
taint of demagogv upon it. Ii is still
more unfortunate that some of its
mistaken leaders should insist upon
wedding it permanently to the infamy
of being opposed to popular education.
''There can no good come from an
attempted revival Of this issue. On
the contrary, it does harm. People
want to deal with live issues and are
not inclined to bow in reverence to d
superstition or worship the mummified
remnant of Il period Of folly

Condition of Trade.

The lowest prices ever known for
wheat and cotton necessarily imply
somewhat restricted consumption of
other products. With the chief money
crops of the West and South sinking in
value, it is not strange that purchases of
manufactured products are smaller
than was expected. Wheat has touched
the lowest point ever known for
options, and cotton the lowest ever
known in any form with the present
classification, and the accumulation of
stocks in both products is discouraging
to purchasers for an advance. Producers
are compelled to sell at prices below
the ordinary cost of raising crops, and
in some Western States there is also a
lamentable failure of the corn crop.
Under the circumstances it would be
very strange if the demand for manu-
featured products should be quite as
large as in other years.

RGUSSEAU-DOUViLLE.

Stevens Point Journal: The marriage
of Louis A. Rousseau, formerly of this
city, but now of Merrill and Miss Selma
Douville of Stockton was solemnized at
St. Mary's church in the latter town
last Wednesday forenoon at 1890
O'Clock, Rev. Hummel officiating. Only
relatives of the contracting parties were
present. The bridesmaids were Miss
Mary Douville, sister of the bride, and
Miss Ada Skeel of Pittsville, while
Albert M. Rousseau and Gustav Otto of
Cenlralia attended the groom. After
the cermony the bridal party repaired
John Garden where all enjoyed a
sumptuous wedding dinner. Mr.. and
Mrs. Rousseau left that afternoon for
Green Bay and after visiting there for
couple Of days will extend their
wedding tour to Milwaukee and Chicago.
The bride has been a resident of the
town of Stockton for the past six years
and is highly esteemed by wide circle
of friends. For the past four years she
has been employed as teacher in the
public schools at Merrill, where she
also has many friends. The groom, who
for number of years has resided at
Merrill, where he is engaged as sales
man for the lumber firm of Gulkv,
Anson & Co., needs no introduction to
the residents of cottage county, having
until a few years ago resided here from
childhood where he is highly esteemed
by all who know him. The newly
married couple will make their future
home at Merrill

Hunting Deer With Dogs.

From Section 2, Chapt. 106, Laws OF
Wisconsin we quote the following: cit
shall be unlawful to hunt deer, buck,
doe or fawn with dog or dogs at any
time, and it shall be lawful for any
person to shoot or kill any dog, while
such dog is in active pursuit of any
deer, buck, doe or fawn." 1t is also
unlawful to hunt rabbits with dogs
during the deer season and the penalty
for either is heavy.
Report comes to US from Arpin that
several parties from Marshfield have
been hunting the festive deer in that
vicinity with hounds and that the dogs
are driving the deer all out. Such a
practice is mean and detestable, unlaw-
full, and those who practice it should
receive harsh dose of the law. Let
the knowing ones make proper com
plant to the authorities.
