metl.
There is no prohibition to the
enactment OF . just and inexpen.
sive homestead law, which would
preserve a mans home intact from
debt and speculation.
All these things could be done
and more, and if they were done,
Foster .ould not re-elect or count
himself in again ia 1900.
But vote down the present call,
and you have no other opportunity
till 1900, when Foster and all biz
appointees will be fat and sleek,
ready for the fray,
In that contest, fat offices will be
at stake, and men will spend mon
ey for them, and that we haven'l
got.
In this contest the Offices do moi
pay much, AVID only principles art
at stake, and VIZ stand q better
chance Of winning the fight thar
we ever will again.
We would be more than glad tt
have the new Constitution referred
back to the people for ratification
and are willing to help try to get
that done, but we infinitely prefer
the present cal' for Consultation
al Convention to none at all.

PAPER MILL INDUSTRY.
Value of the Daily Product in Wis
ConSin More 11had n Doubled
in Last Ten Years.

The Sentinel Of Sunday last contained
an extended article upon the paper
manufacturing industry of our state,
being one of the series Of articles ap-
pearing in that paper upon the great
industries of Wisconsin, prepared by
Gardner P. Stickney. The article is
adorned by several cuts, among them
one Of the Nekoosa dam and mill on
the old "Wisconse". In regard to the
growth and present status of the busi-
ness IN this state Mr.. Stickney says:
The paper, fibre and pulp mill inter
ests of Wisconsin represent an invest
meGt of nearly 100000 900. Note: At
least 81 900, 900 ofthis amount is invested
in the splendid paper making plants in
the vicinity of Grand Rapids and Cen
tralia.) Twenty-Five years ago the only
mill in operation in the state was
equipped for about $4,000.
The daily capacity Of the Wisconsin
paper and pulp mills is :, ,5O7 900 pounds.
IN the list of thirty -four states prOduc-
ing paper, Wisconsin in capacity, stands
third, New York being first and Maine
second. Almost every kind of paper is
made in the state, the largest item being
"book and news" $4,000 pounds. In
chemical fiber and wood pulp the Wis
consin mills can produce 1,OS6,OO0
pounds daily.
The value of Wisconsin's paper pro-
ducts more than doubled in the decade
from 1885 to 1895. According to the
state census of the former year it
amounted to $2,SO4,29 In 1895 it is
placed at SS, ,249 ,65l.

Shall We Celebrate.

The iftieth anniversary of the ap-
proval of the act of congress admitting
Wisconsin to the Federal Union will
occur upon May 20, 1898; and the fiftieth
anniversary of the ceremony of taking
the oath of office, by the first elective
state officers, upon June 7, 1898.
Appropriate observances iii commem-
Grafton Of these events are, we feel
assured, generally desired by the people
of our state, to the end that there may
be fostered among us that spirit of his
toric consciousness which is the source
Of civic pride and patriotism. The sew
eral program committees-Which were
the outgrowth of the Committee of One
Hundred, at the final meeting of the
latter, in Milwaukee, few months ago
haye outlined plans which embrace
three features, as follows:
l. County pioneer celebrations, to
be held at each county seat upon Satur-
day, May 2S, 1898 (for the 29th falls upon
Sunday, and the 30th is Memorial Day..
1uSSC CGIGUIdIlOuS W NC, So poo
sible, under the control of local hIstori-
cal or early settler societies, either al
ready organized, or at once to be organ
lied, with this end in view.
2. A general state celebration, of
military, literary and historical charac-
ter, to be held at Madison, the seat of
state government, upon Tuesday, We'd
nesday and Thursday, June 7, s and 9,
1898. The 7th of June has been declared
by the legisi ature legal holiday, and
the program upon that day is in the
hands of the governor; the proposition
is to extend the celebration through
the Sth and 9th, under the guida nee of
the peoples committee.
8. A carnival at Milwaukee, the
metropolis of the state, from June 9th
to July Cd, to graphically represent the
business and industrial development of
the commonwealth during the past fifty
years.
If the people of Grand Rapids, Cen
tralia and vicinity intend to celebrate
the 5Oth anniversary Of Wisconsin
statehood, it is time that committees be
appointed to look after the necessary
arrangements therefor. Who will act
in the premises?

Minnesota Wants One Also

Over in the state of Minnesota the
season for hunting deer under protec-
ton of law opened October 25th to con-
tinue twenty days, or until Nov. 10th.
Their season began six days before and
therefore ends six days in advance of
the Wisconsin season.
sort of general complaint now
comes from Minnesota people Of the
inroads of Wisconsin hunters in their
deer territory. Up at West Superior,
for instance, and along the state line
Wisconsin hunters had only to 60 from
ten to twenty miles from their homes
and they could shoot at all the deer
they desired in Minnesota six days be-
fore they could do so in their own state.
The fact that Minnesota hunters will be
unable to retaliate by shooting in this
state six days after the close Of their
season without taking out license for
Fnon-residents" and paying the state
$50 therefor. is irritating to the Mime
sofa people who already, now that the
matter is brought to their notice, talk
of having enacted by the next Mime
sofa legislature a measure similar to the
Wisconsin law. Our new provisions
have certainly served to keep out
class of hunters who try to kill the most
game for the least money and who have
heretofore been the means Of greatly
decreasing the number Of deer in this
state. Such people have this year
fiocked mostly into the northern coun-
ties of Minnesota.
Resident hunters Of Northern Mime
sofa are in favor of license fee higher
than that of this state. They want 1t for
the protection of the game, and argue
that by raising the amount it will put
hunters from other states back into
Wisconsin where the license would be
cheaper rather than into Minnesota.
Wisconsin game wardens consider
our new law very good one, and we
believe SO too.

Coach Bean.

Stevens Point Journal: Frank Bean
has been at Grand Rapids this week,
coaching the High school football ele-
ven at that place. Frank thinks the
Grand Rapids boys can in a fair contest,
with no outside help Oh either side,
beat any High school team in the state.
Mr.. Bean is a member of Wisconsin
University football team and during his
weeks stay here gave Howe High
school k1ckers many new pointers
worth knowing. Grand Rapids has
been training faithfully under Bean for
the game at La Crosse Saturday next
and is now in fine form. The Centralia
eleven also received instructions from
Bean, both local teams lining up against
each other every evening at the fair
ground gridiron. Centralia boys have
picked up rapidly in practice work and
are developing some active players.
The coach was called back to Madison
Mondy evening by telegram his services
being needed on the Varsity gridiron.

CHIEF CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
news is the chief cause Of bladder trou
bles. So the womb, like the bladder,
was created for one purpose, and If not
doctored too much is not liable to weak
ness or disease, except in rare cases.
It is situated back of and very close to
the bladder, therefore any pain, disease
or inconvenience manifested in the
kidneys, back, bladder or urinary pas
sage is often, by mistake, attributed to
female weakness or womb trouble of
some sort. The error is easily made
and may be easily avoided. To find out
correctly, set your urine aside for TWEEN
ty-four hours: sediment of settling in
dicates kidney or bladder trouble. The
mile and the extraordinary effect of DR..
kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney
ard bladder remedy is soon realized.
If you need medicine you should have
the best. At druggists fifty cents and
one dollar You may nave a sample
bottle and pamphlet both sent free by
mail. Mention Wood County Reporter
and send your address TO DR.. kilmer u

Transfer of Cranberry Lands.

Messrs. Chas. Z. Lester, Nels John
son and Geo. NJ. Hill associated them
selves together the past week i'll the
purchase of the following lands jointly:
Seven forties of cranberry land known
as the Warner marsh and owned by d.
R. Burr; the Mike Matthews interest in
the cranberry lands owned by Lester &
Matthews; the Geo. B. Mcmillan inter
ests in the Gaynor marsh; the Steven
Warner house and grounds, and so acres
of land in section Sc. The Warner
house will be fixed up and completed
by Mr.. Lester and occupied by hiln.
MIR. Lester will have full charge of these
lands and all that are suitable for the
cultivation of cranberries will be de-
veloped and improved. This transfer
is one of considerable value and i'm
portance to the cranberry district and
the joint owners will probably make
good money upon the investment. At
least we hope they may.

Some years ago when suffering with an
uncommonly severe attack of diarrhoea.
Mr.. W. b. Guinnip, of Atco, Pa, re-
ceived through the mail a sample bottle
OF Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Dia-
rrhoea Remedy. He says: II found it
to be one of the most effective remedies
l ever used. 1t gave me almost immedi-
ate relief. 1t has no superior and think
10 equal. No bad effects follow the use
Of this remedy. 1t is pleasant to take
when reduced with water and sweetened.
Children like it. 1t never fails. 1t is the
most perfect remedy ever produced for
bowel oomplaints.' For sale at % and

Tie people have long since learned
tGat the most disagreeabe medicines are
not necessarily the best. In fact, as a rule
they are not. What is wanted is some
!hing mild and sure, such as Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and DIarrhoea Rem
edy. That is really pleasant to take when
reduced with water and sweetened. Then
it is acknowledged everywhere to be the
most successful remedy in the world for
bowel complaints. Ask any number of
druggists for the best remedy they have
for diarrhoea and fully nine out of ten
will recommend Chamberlain's. In
speaking of this medicine, Mr.. B. B. But

Boston.

Boston, August 2s.-By the collapse of
the two high brick walls supporting a
three story wooden building on North
Bennett avenue. which was being torn
down to make room for the new Paul

jury. The dead men are Giovanni Gin
inc, %, and Dominica Tetee The injured
man who was caught by flying bricks is
Domencio Amelio, 50 years old. He has
several contusions on his left arm and
there is severe wound over his eye The
work of tearing down the old building is
in charge Of Contractor Israel Fl. Atkins,
and large nun Der of Italians were en-
ployed thereon. The wrecked building
was the last of several similar ones to be
demolished and the roof and the third
story had been practically removed, leav-
ing only the walls standing. They had
nothing to support them and were re-
garded as dangerous The men had been
warned by the foreman not to use ropes

against the other would cause both to fall
together. Soon after o'clock the wallis
were seen to be tipping having been grad
ually undermined and became top heavy.
Then as the danger became more appar-
ent some one shouted "Run for your
lives, and everybody started to do SO as
the walls came crashing to the ground.
All were fortunate in escaping injury ex-
cept the three before mentioned.
The two men who were killed were
working in the cellar of the building and
it is stated that they were taking away
the supports from the lower part of the
wall in order to facilitate their work.
Search was continued among the ruins
until late in the afternoon, In the fear
that others might be buried there, but it
was finally given up.
