Public Lands Becoming Exhausted.

The annual report of the Wausau
land office for the year ending June
80, 1900, shows that the government
domain in this (the Wausau) district
is dwindling to such point that it is
only question of few years until
the Wausau office will necessarily
have to be consolidated with some
othe. The Wausau district includes
forty-three counties, in twenty-three
of which all the government land has
been taken up. Of the remaining
twenty counties the amount of home
stead land open for entry ranges from
forty acres in Columbia and forty
acres in Waupaca Counties to 20,735
acres in Oneida County. Next to
Oneida County comes Villas County
with 1926 acres still open to entry.
In all there still remain in the district
but 1928 acres of unreserved lands.
Last year %. 543 acres were entered,
so it can readily be seen that the sup
ply will soon be exhausted.

eth me in the saloon for my votes

cigars my glass of beer runneth over
He prepareth my ticket in the pres

though l walk through the mud and

myself hoarse when he is elected,
; straightway he forgotteth me, 10
when meet him in his own Office he
knoweth me not, Surely the wool
has been pulled over mine eyes all the

They are given a Boat Ride up
Through the Chain ofLakes

A special meeting was called We'd
nesday evening of the citizens at the
Advancement Association Rooms to
make arrangements to entertain the
editors, fifteen OF twenty such as the
case may be. The meeting was call
ed to order by F. w. Mcintyre, who
| was made chairman and o. B. Moon
Secretary. The object of the meeting
was made known to those who were
present by d. E. Riordan and remarks
were made by Messrs. Mcintyre, Rad
cliffe, Moon, Bradford, Higgins and a
number of others as to the advant-
ages which would be derived from the
having of fifteen or twenty of the
representative publishers of the state
visit this section of the country.
The chairman then appointed the
following committees:
Finance. -Messrs. Higgins, Brad
ford and Hirzel.
Program, -Messrs. Sanborn, Rad
cliffe and Neville.
Entertainments Messrs. Sanborn,
Radcliffe, Neville, Bonner, Bradford,
Mckenzie, Mckinley.
Messrs. Riordan, Moon and Col
man were appointed as committee
to 90 to Rhinelander to invite fifteen
or twenty editors to come to Eagle
and be our guest over Sunday.
The finance committee in short or
der raised the amount that was re-
quired to pay the expenses. which
goes to show the liberality of our
business men, when there is chance
to set forth the advantages of our
town.
The committee on invitation done
their part and as the train pulled in
to the station Saturday, nine editors
with their wives and lady friends to
the number of 16 all told stepped off
the train and were met by number
of our citizens who escorted them to
Hotel Smith, where those who desir-
ed were given rooms to give them
chance to rest up while the others OF
the party strolled around town take
ing in the sights At five o'clock
mine host Smith served supper, those
partaking of same claim it was one OF
the hest meals served on the route
which speaks well for this hotel, as
the editors had been wined and dlned
at some of the best hostelry's in the
state. After supper the party were
taken to the Neville boat house,
(which boat along with the May
flower was rendered for the occasion
free of charge. where they embarked
on board of the steam yatch, accomp-
aimed with nineteen towspeople who
went along as escort and to point out
the beauties of the trip drought the
chain lakes and which they all seemed
to enjoy and greatly pleased with this
part of the program.
The party arrived at Everett's re-
sort about 8 O'Clock and were met at
the landing by Mr.. Everett, one OF
the most genial landlords in this or
any other state. On account OF the
lateness of the hour and the party
being very tired landlord Everett as
SIGNED them to their rooms, and al
ter a short stop the Eagle River dele
cation returned to the city.
Sunday morning the committee OF
entertainment and number OF the
citizens took an early start on board
Of the yatchs for the resort, where
they put in the day entertaining the
ouests and as far as we can learn they
were all well pleased with the way
they were treated at Everett's. Those
who desired were taken around the
loles while others strolled through

those that came as one of the pleas
ATTEST places they visited on their
trip. The committees as well as the
citizens in general did all they could
to make their brief stay with us a
pleasure, and they can't but say Ea
gle River is a good place to stop at
when on trip like the one they just
past through. They all were a jolly
lot of good people and we hope they
will come again.
Advantages OF Having this Rain Keep Up.
If there were any forest fires, it
would put them out.
If it wasn't so late in the season, it
would be a fine thing for the hay.
If it hadn't beaten the grain into
the mud, it would be extremely re-
freshing to thirsty crops.
1t keeps the men at home where
they belong instead of allowing them
to spend their midsummer idle mo-
ments up the river or on the lakes
fishing.
1t keeps the children from going
out and getting their clothes dusty
by playing in the road,
1t helps Bob Hayes out on sprink-
ling the streets.
1t shows the people where their
roofs leak.
1t keeps up the circulation in UNI
brellas, so that if a man watches out
he may be able to benefit his condi-
ton.
A thousand other advantages that
you can think of yourself.
