CALLED THEM DOWN
District Attorney Alvord Talks
Strong to the County Board.
CERTIFICATE DEAL STILL ON
The sale of Tax Certificates Not Yet Made,
Owing to Having Been Improperly
Notwithstanding that the
County Board Did.
CERTIFICATE DEAL STILL on

The County Board was in session
Tuesday and aside from the regular
routine of business, the session was
enlivened by the remarks of the Dis
trlct Attorney, who took occasion to
relieve his mind Of certain things.
1t seems that certain statements and
insinuations have come to the hearing
OF the District Attorney regarding
his connection with the case of the
railroad bonds, and certain members
OF the Board, too, had said things
that the District Attorney didn It
like. So Mr.. Alvord went before the
Board and declared that he would
earnestly protect the county's inter-
ests, and he went after his oppon-
ents in strong language, declaring
that no one had any right to ques-
ton his motives or good intentions.
The result was that resolution was
passed authorizing Mr.. Alvord to
procure the assistance of Attorney
Sanborn, of Ashland, to assist the
county in it's side of the case.
J. L. Gates, of Milwaukee, was be-
fore the Board with a view of pur-
chasing the tax certificates of the
county. The sale not having been
properly advertised the sale was
adjourned until the 9th of February
at which time the board will again
meet.
Numerous bills were also allowed,
and some minor business transacted.

PERCY GIBSON AT wAUKEsHA.
Accepts the secretaryship of Y. nj. c. A,
at That Place.

Accepts the Secretaryship of Y. MI. G. A.
at That Place.
Percy G. Gibson, son of Rev. John
Gibson, of this city, is now secretary
of the Y. M. G. A. of Waukesha. In
recent issue of one of the papers
published in that city, we find the
following concerning Mr.. Gibson:
After several months of uncertain
ty and annoyances, financial and
otherwise, the local Young Mems
Christian Association seems again to
have secured firm footing and to
have every prospect of renewed
prosperity ard usefulness. The
board of trustees have secured new
secretary in the person of Mr. P. W.
Gibson, who came here from Milwau
kee on New Years day, opened the
building and without any fuss or
feathers began his administration.
Mr.. Gibson has been assistant
secretary of Y. M. c. A. work in
Milwaukee for several years. He
comes of ministerial family, his
father being Rev. John Gibson, now
pastor of the Congregational Church
at Washburn, Wis. P. w. Gibson
was born in Brynmawr, Wales, III
1872, and came to this country with
his patents in the summer OF 1888.
The family lived at Springfield, ILL.,.
and Kaukauna, Wis, and the boy
graduated from the high school of
the latter town. He served as the
president of his class and also as the
first president of the Kaukauna
Alumni Association organized in
1893.
By reason of his fathers profess
sion he had many opportunities for
Christian work, and he became
iden tilted with Y. M. G. A. work at
the opening of the new Z. NJ. 9. A.
building in Kaukauna in January,
1892. He accepted the position OF
assistant secretary of that institu-
ton and retained it for three and a
half years, resipning on account OF
i'll health. After few months in
business he entered association
work again, taking the position OF
assistant secretary at Milwaukee
and remaining there four years,
with the exception of one year spent
at the Chicago Bible Institute, in
| Chicago, and in Sunday school mis-
sionary work IN rth-Western
Iowa. From Milwaukee, as above
stated, he came to this city.
He has not as yet had time to
formulate any definite plans of work,
but it is probable that methods in
use formerly will not be greatly
altered. The building will be open
from in the morning until 10 in
the evening. Sunday afternoon
meetings will be held at 3 O'Clock,
that Of next Sunday to be conduct
ed by Mr.. Gibson. All member
ship tickets will be issued anew,
and number OF subscriptions will
will be due on January 10th. These
may be paid to the treasurer, Il. 7.
Breese, at the National Exchange
Bank. AS soon as possible an in
structor will be secured for gym
nasium classes and, if possible, this
Instructor will also serve as assist
ant secretary.

that it can get adherents. Great

The following from the Medford
Star and News indicates that some
body from this neck of the woods is
dabbling in Medford newspaper pro-
perty. Who can it be? The Star
and News says:
It is reported that j. A. Barager
took possession of the Republican
outfit bv virtue Of a chattel mortgage
held by him. The property was sold
later, SO the story goes, at a private
sale and bid in by Clinton Textor for
a Washburn party in a sum covering
the amount due Barager. At pres
ent the situation appears a little
mixed. In the language of that
noble Chicago statesman, Hinky-
Dink, it cuts no ice. Somebody
with a B is running the wind-end of
the observation-disclosures or Barager,
Barager or Berger-as you like it.
