The Villas County Exhibit
at the State Fair.

Milwaukee Sentinel in reference
4 to the exhibit of Villas County
products, made by the Villas
County Advancement Associa-
ton:
1.-The possibilities of that por-
ton of the state which up to a
few years ago was regarded as a
barren waste when denuded of
it's timber, are illustrated by a
splendid display of agricultural
products made by the county of
Villas. To fully appreciate this
display, it will have to be borne
in mind that less than ten years
ago there were not more than six
men in the entire county engag-
ed in farming, and to-day there
are not six men in the county
with more than twentv acres of
land under cultivation. the re-
mainder Of their farms being still
couered with the pine stumps
left by the lumberman. H. c.
Todd. the secretary of the Adj
vancement association of Villas
county, is in charge of the exhib-
it. eve onl y made up our minds
to make an exhibit at the State
Fair three weeks ago, and since
then we have collected the arti-
cles," said Mr.. Todd. "The arti
cles in question consist of a full
line of vegetables and cereals. in
Guiding twelve different varieties
of potatoes, and corn stalks II
feet high. The display of grass
es include timothy five feet three
inches in height, which, to use
the words of Mr.. Todd, was not
selected, but grabbed right up
out of the field" Of the wild
grasses, there is blue joint, five
feet eight inches high, and red
top, five feet ten inches high.
There are three cuttings Of clover
from a single field made during
the past summer, the first of
which is five feet six inches high,
the second cutting three feet high
and the third crop is two feet
high. 1t is of the variety known
as medium clover" In addi-
ton to the agricultural products
there is a full exhibit of the ami
mails to be found in Villas county,
including badger, pair of
pretty fawns, an eagle, and a
full line of the fishes found in the
streams.
The writer visited the State
Fair and spent considerable time
in viewing the exhibits made by
several of the counties in the
northern part of the state. The
Villas county exhibit compared
very favorably with the best of
them. In awarding premiums,
we notice that, according to the
official list, Villas county ranks
ahead OF Langlade, the amount
of premiums raked of by Sec'y
Todd, being $68.OO.
A pamphlet, issued by the State
Board of Immigration, address
ed to Home Seekers, advertising
the farming lands of Northern
Wisconsin, occupied a prominent
place in the Villas county exhibit.
What surprised us was that
Sec'y Todd permitted one of
them to rest in sight Of his ex-
hibit. We have examined our
copy carefully and the only ref
erence we find to Villas county is
as follows: "Pine and hard
wood timber, nearly ali has been
cut for lumber; portions of the
land fairly good for agricultural
purposes, but better adapted to
small fruits and vegetables; too
sandy for. general farming an
grazing

At a meeting of Butte Local Union 112
of Carpenters and Joiners of America.
the following resolutions We're adopted:
Whereas, General Merriam in COM
mand of the Federal troops in Shoshone
county, Idaho. has made the statement
to the press that all unions of organized
labor are illegal and hostile to the best
interests of government, and has exceed
ed his authority in a %tyrannical and
brutal manner, to-wit, by arresting by
force, and without legal right, men in
Montana outside of his jurisdiction,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That we condemn and stig-
Matte such actions as tyrannical, UNI
just and false. And be it
Resolved, That we, as citizens of Mon
tana, ask Governor Smith to demand of
General Merriam that he return to Mon
tana the men arrested and taken from
the state, without due process of law,
and they be given the rights accorded
them by the laws of Montana and the
constitution Of the United States. And
be it further
Resolved. That a copy of these resolu-
lions be sent to President Mckinley.

Federal Building Commission
ers Looking up Property.
r. OPEN FOR MORE OFFERS
Received One Yesterday From John
H. Curtis Instructions as
to Dimensions,

Many Of the realty holders in the city
do not appear to be thoroughly advised
as to the fact that while the original bids
for the federal site We're opened several
days ago the commission is authorized to
accept a tender OF property at any time,
or to allow any modification OF reduction
of the bids previously submitted. AS
long as the commission remains in ses-
sion it will accept and consider new
tenders.
Yesterday afternoon John H. Curtis
offered the northwest corner of Galena
and Idaho streets, 14O feet on Galena
street by 80 feet on Idaho street. Mr..
Curtis offers to sell this property to the
government for s25. 900. This is the only
offer the commission has received since
the bids were opened Thursday morn
ing.
While the commission is allowed to ex-
ercise its discretion in the matter, it's
Instructions are, if possible, to secure a
piece of property, if situated on a corner,
150x150 feet, or if an interior, it should
be 1870 feet in length by $50 feet in depth.
This provision is made in order hat
there may be an open space of 40 feet on
each side of the building for fire protec-
ton.
The commissioners say their instruc-
tons are to locate the site of the build
ing in the place where, in their judg-
ment, the patrons of the p%ostoffice will
not be inconverienced. They propose to
locate it as neal the population and bust
ness center of the city as is possible.
However, the price of the property cuts
some figure, and the maximum price they
shall pay is, in a way, fixed. Today they
are inspecting the sites rendered on East
Broadway and East Park streets.
Yesterday afternoon, under the guild
ance of ex-senator Charles Leonard, the
commissioners visited the Parrot mines
and smelter n We're very much i'm
pressed with what they saw.
They express themselves as being very
much pleased at the courteous treatment
they are receiving At the hands of the
citizens of Butte.
Incidentally, Mr.. Window is looking
into the matter of building material, and
much will depend upon his report as to
whether the building will be constructed
of brick or stone. He will be glad to
meet those interested in building mate
rails.
Messrs. Window, Hall and Osann were
rendered a banquet at the McDermott
hotel last night by j. H. Leyson. Covers
were laid for 100 guests, and a large
number of the representative men of the
city were present. The affair was very
successful.

the company It represented was the or
ganization through which the mining
companies here did their insuring. The
document showed that when a man is
killed while in the employ Of a mining
company the liability company of London
pays the mining company a sum Of
money equal to the amount the dead man
would have earned in a year had he not
been killed, provided the sum does not
exceed $4,000; and the mining company
pays the heirs Of the dead man just half
of the amount.
