soon be appointed to I'LL the vacancy
| caused by the moving OF L. w. Nc
Intyre, the present incumbent, to Mum
ising, Mich
The appointive power lies with Gov

ham, one OF the leading republicans OF
our county will receive the appointment
A petition has been in circulation in be-
half Of Mr. Graham's appointment, for
the past few days, and has received the
signature OF all the leading business
men OF the city.
Mr.. Graham is thoroughly competent
in every way to discharge the dignifed
duties of the Office He has held a num-
Der of Offices in the village and had more
experience in dealing with questions OF
law than other person in the county,
excepting our attorneys.
At the time Of the Great ting OF Villas coun-
ty Mr.. Graham labored zealously for the
cause, making a number OF trips to
Madison i'll Villas county's behalf. His
knowledge of the value and kind OF land
and timber in our county as well as that
in Oneida county, materially assisted us
in the subsequent settlement between
this and Oneida county. He never was
rewarded by county office with any
salary ATTACHED, and we now join with
his friends, trusting we are not too pre-
mature, i'll welcoming him in the new
roll OF Judge Graham.

in which the damages are placed al
$4,000 and the plaintiff, ex-state offici-
ial, is the result of the Monahan-God-
kin logging lawsuit, decided for the

There seems to have been mis-
understanding between the Eagle River
and Wausau base ball teams IN reference
to our playing there last Saturday al d
Sunday. AS near as we can learn Thurs
day dispatch was sent to Wausau
asking il they could give us above dates.
Their answer was i'll the Affirmative.
They We're told we would wire them
that evening and let them know definite
". Our boys We're unable to let them
know that evening on account OF not
bearing from players who had been
wired for, but Friday morning did wire
them that it would be impossible for us
to get a team together and 90 down.
lii the meantime the Wausauites adveI-
tised the proposed games and We're seem
ingly disappointed at our failure. Unless
by a misintarpertation of the dispatch
we are unable to see why their manage
ment should advertise the games. The
best OF feeling has always prevailed be-
tween these two teams and we should
dislike to see it otherwise on this occas-
ion.

J. W. Anderson, of Elm Dale, who
lost his house. barn and granary by
fire caused by lightning Sunday
evening, is in the city Wednesday. He
had left home few hours before on
u trip to Brainerd with load Of
produce and is now on his return.
His brother went to Brainerd and
informed him OF the catastrophe. In
addition to losing his buildings he
lost part OF his farm machinery and
about 200 chickens. The buildings
were insured for 81 900 in the Green
witch Insurance company, but that
amount will cover but small part
OF the loss. He was purchasing new
household goods and will commence
housekeeping in his brothers build
ing. He cannot rebuild until he gets
the insurance.

Rail Prairie, wasin the city Yesterday
and reported the loss of his house
and other farm buildings, with the
exception OF Il small granary, by
fire Wednesday afternoon. Mr.. Tyn-
dell states that the origin Of the fire
is unknown, as the family was all
away from home picking blueberries.
His son was the first to discover the
fire and ut the time he first saw it,
the dwelling was enveloped in
flames. The fire occurred shortly
after dinner, and Mr.. Tyntlcll thinks
1t probable that it originated
from the stove. Besides losing his
buildings. the entire contents Of the
house. including most OF the cloth
ing OF the family, were destroyed.
and also considerable grain which
was stored in an old Granary and
which he has not had time to move
into the new granary that was
saved.
There WAS 500 insurance ON the
buildings and $50 on the contents Of
the granary, but in neither case does
the insurance cover more than one
half the actual loss.
