DISCUSS BRIDGE MATTERS.

A meeting was called last evening,
at the city hall, for the purpose of dis
cusSing the proposition to build a
bridge across the Wisconsin river, in
the southern part of the city. A goodly
number of citizens were present and
Judge Henry Miller was elected chair
man and Chas. Williams secretary.
Different ones were called upon to give
their views on the subject after which a
committee was appointed to draft a
resolution to present to the city council
at its next meeting Monday evening.
The resolution in substance was that
it was the sense of the meeting, as it
was also that of a great many property
holders, both large and small, that it
would be a wise move for the city to
formulate plans for the erection of the
bridge in question. That it will be to
the interests of all to have this bridge
in existence.
This resolution will be handed in at
the next meeting of the council, and
there will be a number of people on
hand to push the matter. City Engi-
neer G. w. Nutter has prepared map
of the section where the bridge is pro-
posed to be built, together with differ
ent sites for the same. The most ap-
proved site is line drawn from point
south of the new tannery to either the
Gallon or Jones places, on Grand Ave.
1t is figured that this bridge would cost
in the neIghborhoodnof $4,000 or 81, 600
Some of those who are working hard
for this structure claim that should it
be built, the city will, in a few years,
get its money back in taxes by reason
of the increase in value of property in
that part of town that would be occas-
Toned by the great number of houses
that would go up Immediately. Many
have started building already, believ-
ing that the bridge will be constructed
in the near future.

1T ISN'T RIGHT.

There are times when patience ceases
to be a virtue in the print-shop as well
as in other institutions. Men are found
in every community who think that
newspapers are being conducted for
their especial benefit; they think they
know just how a paper should be run
and what kind of news ought to be
published therein-Of course, bristling
with good points about their own dear
selves. Then there are those who think
that an entertainment of any kind is
not noticed unless about 100 lines are
given it by each paper in the city an
other set are of the opinion that the
papers should print the county board
and city council proceedings, in full,
free of charge then there are those
that are not pleased unless a half col
umn notice is given to a marriage :;
that death notices should be very com
pete; that cards of thanks should be
published, all free of charge; then there
are those who seem to think that news
papers can SubSiSt on air and pay their
help in chunks of wind; the latter are
those who are very active in having
their entertainments written up extern
sively, and then, as u token of their
appreciation for the help given by the
press, 20 10 jDD OluttS lpt WlldJ IlJtlc
printing they may want for the occa-
sion.
The PILOT doubts if there is a city in
the state in which the newspapers are
treated so stability by the schools as in
Wausau The papers have We'd with
each other, in the past. in writing up
every event, giving prominence, in
extended notices, to entertainments,
field day sports, foot ball games, etc.
What little work there has been given
to the newspapers has been let to the
lowest bidder. The PILOT Office put in
the successful bid last year and the sum
received was $1,000 The annual book,
commencement programs, tickets,
school paper ETC., were given to little
job office The same kind of scheme is
on foot for the coming year. The
PILOT, as rule, does not care to make
complaints of this kind, but, at times,
feels justified in so doing. The schools
have but very little printing and,
under the circumstances, should
be willing to pay fair compensation
to the press for the same; by that, we
mean what is charged our business men
for the same class of work. We do not
say that anyone has made a studied
attempt to do injustice to the press; we
would rather look upon it as having
been done unconsciously. Now the
awaking has come and those who care
to do so should profit thereby.

OPTION EXPIRES.

The option held by the Wisconsin
Valley Electric Co. on the plant of the
Wausau Electric Co. expires September
LIST, and will not be renewed. Had not
this option been given to the former
company the home concern wOulu this
fall have made many improvements in
its plant, but it is now too late to do
anything this season. The company
has found that its engines are not heavy
enough to do the work required of them,
for the reason that the business has
doubled since the plant was first con-
structed. 1t was intended to replace
the $50 horsepower engines now in use
by ones of 1000 horse power.
There is belief prevalent now, which
is gaining ground every day, that the
much boosted work of the Wisconsin
Valley Electric Co. will come to naught.
Some go so far as to state that the pro-
motors, Messrs. Frawley, Bundy & Will
COX, have not the backing of Eastern
capital, as has been represented, but
merely secured, as a speculation, the
franchise to build an electric railway,
and that ever since the same was grant
ed these gentlemen have been trying to
sell. They also state further that as
there is no buyers there will be nothing
done toward building a car line in this
city-not for some years at least. To
dlSprOve these statements these attOr-
neys should make some move soon to
give evidence of a faithfulness to fulfill
their promises

COUNTY FAIR.

tuesday next, marks the opening OF
tne Marathon county fair, and should
the management not run amuck OF
some very disagreeable weather, the
far OF 1901 will be written in the his
tory of events of this county as the
most successful of any since the organi-
cation of the Agricultural society.
The weather so far has been favorable
to the ripening of grains and to the
growth of vegetables, so that the agri-
cultural display will be unexcelled.
During the past year number of stock
farms have been established in the
county, that number among their herds
some of the finest specimens of cattle,
sheep and swine ever seen in Northern
Wisconsin, and the excellent breeds of
horses have also been improved. Near
ly every one of these stock raisers have
expressed desire to exhibit their
animals at the fair this fall while some
Will be brought from outside the county
merely as show. The ladies have been
busy with needle work, preserves and
fancy articles that they will have on
exhibition in the art hall. The cream
cry and cheese factory owners will also
show you what is being done in the
dairy Line in this locality, while several
who have apairies will display the pro-
duct of the busy bee Marathon county
is fast developing into a farming coun-
ty, and to realize this most fully you
should not fail to visit the fair grounds
on Sept. 3, 4, 5 and 6, and see not alone
the quantity of products on exhibition
but the quality. For the amusement of
the visitors good racing program has
been arranged, which includes some of
the fastest hor. IS in this section.
If you have anything in the line of
stock, or grains, or any handicraft
which you would ike others to see, en-
ter it. Every little counts and goes
toward making a good fair, and your
work will be appreciated.

WHAT A BLESSING.
Many People in Wausau Learning to
Appreciate.

Many a miserable man is happy now.
Nights of unrest, days of trouble.
Itching piles means this.
Eczema just as bad, and just as bad
to cure.
But Doan's Ointment cures all ichi-
ness of the skin.
A blessing to a suffering public.
Here's Wausau proof to back our
statement:
Mr.. Geo. Steltz, of 625 Washington St.,
sexton at the Wausau cemetery, says:
while working in the cemetery one
day with my sleeves rolled up, before
l noticed It, the sun had burned my
arms so badly that they were covered
with water blisters. When | got home
at night Immediately directed my at
tention to allay the trouble, and took
down from shelf liniment of which
| knew the value. Just then l remem
bered | had procured box of DOan's
Ointment at Albers' drug store and it
struck me that the occasion was a good
one to test its merits. | rubbed the
liniment on one arm and DOan's Oint-
ment on the other, retired for the night,
and examining them in the morning.
The arm rubbed with liniment was still
sore, and the arm treated with the Oint-
ment was cured. Seeing the beneficial
effects as apparent | used the ointment
for itching hemOrrhOids or eczema of
the parts affected. 1t cured the trouble

The Wausau base ball team defeated
the Tomahawk boys on their home
grounds Friday in a one sided game by
a score of IS to s.
Sunday the Green Bay team was de-
feated here in a game that was very
much OF Singing match. A large
crowd of people was in attendance, the
paid admissions being about 1900, and
though the score was not close yet the
crowd got its moneys worth of sport.
The close games played previously by
these teams together with the fact that
the invincible 0lmstead was down on
the slate to do the pitching for the g..
BIS was responsible for the large at
tendance The game started off in a
lively way and for four innings the
playing was clean and sharp cut, but
the fifth was a hoodoo to the visitors
and Wausau piled up runs. If this
half inning had been cut out the game
would have been much more interest
ing Olmstead, the Great, met his
Waterloo, IL hits being secured off OF
him, besides letting 10 men walk, while
Struck allowed the same number OF
hits to his opponents only one man got
his base on balls, and he kept the hits
well scattered. Several double plays
were executed by the home team that
drew the applause from the grand
stand. Following is the score by in

NOTES.
Following is the result of other games
in the league Sunday:
Oshkosh 9, Appleton 6.
Kaukauna II, ShebOygan 8.
The Milwaukee and Waupaca teams
were scheduled for game but did not
play. 1t appears that Waupaca will
not now enter the league, on account
of not being able to get up team
strong enough to compete with the rest
of the bunch.
Marcan, while attempting to jump
the wire guard after the game, was
thrown to the ground by some one lift
ing the wire, and was injured. He was
hustled into DR.. A. w. Trevitts rig and
taken over town, but shortly after was
able to again be around.
One thing which should be done is
to enforce the rule on the home grounds
that prohibits the public from climbing
over the wires and crowding into the
diamond. By the violation of this rule
the players and scorers are interfered
with and many a foul ball is missed,
besides the view of those in carriages
is obstructed. The enforcement of this
rule would be appreciated by MAORI
ty of those attending games.
The game with Waupaca, which was
to have been played here Sunday, has
been postponed. 1t is probable that
game will be arranged with some
other team before that date.
Appleton and Green Bay do not play
any games this season that count in the
percentage column.

c. G. YawSey, on McIndoe street. The
house has been closed during the sum-
mer, Mr.. Yawkey and family being at
Arbor Vitae. The man in charge of the
house and lawn, wishing to burn some
rubbish which he had placed in the fur
mace, started the FIRE, but the smoke re-
fused 10 90 up the chimney and instead
filed the basement and poured out of
the windows until someone thinking
that the house was surely on fire,
turned in an alarm. The fire depart
ment did not find il necessary 10 lay
any hose or throw any water. The
only damage was by smoke and that
was trihing.
