DEER LODGE THEIR SLOGAN.

And now the residents of Powell coun-
@ty are sorry that they spoke. They're
not particularly sorry that Powell county
is created, but they have arrived at the
conclusion that it would have been bet
ter for various reasons to have kept the
name of Deer Lodge for the new county
instead of Powell.
In the register of the Grandon is found
the following inscriptions: Tom Nc
Tague, Deer Lodge, now Powell, hope
not lasting"
In explanation of this rather peculiar
form of registration, Representative Nc
1ague asserts that while the citizens of
Powell county are we'll pleased with the
way things have gone generally. there
is growing sentiment in favor of
| changing the name Powell to Deer
Lodge.
1T is the wish of the newly-formed
county that it be called Deer Lodge" he
said, land that the southern part of the
| old county of Deer Lodge assume the
| name of Daily county.
I'VE are now gathering expert legal
| advice regarding the suggested change.
| and, while a number of important steps
will have to be taken before the end de-
| sired can be attained, still it is not be-
! lcVed that an amendment to the con-
| stitution will be necessary, while others
are Of the opinion that the name can be
| changed without an amendment"
| Prior to the adoption of the bill there
| were several of the opinion that the bill
which recently became a law should be
amended to read Deer Lodge, instead Of
! Powell county. but the difficulty in the
way of this was that the southern part
of the county would naturally retain the
name of Deer Lodge.

CAUGHT ON THE FLY.

The assembly of the state of Montana,
imbued With mighty idea of its own i'm
portance and infallibility, by passing the
bill regarding weights and measures to-
day has ''officially' decided that a BUSH
ell of hay consists of 1000 pounds. This
is on par with the colored preacher who
said that the sun do move If the as
senlbly of Montana would only settle q
few veXed questions of science, it's die
tums might excite thing more than
derson. For instance how about lay
ing the ghost of that old theory that Just
seven devils can sit on the point Of Il
needle? Also, do Mars be inhabited and
where am the earth at? Speaker Corbett,
who objected to the 2,0G0-pound bushel, is
| not included in these queries.
Senator Connolly objects to the Gallo
twist Reading Clerk Gilligan Gives his
tongue when he pronounces the name
Pelletier Mr.. Pelletier declares that
Ginigan is right and the senator from
| Granite unsophisticated. Mr. Gilligan
now smiles and smiles, proof positive OF
the theory that a man may smile and
smile and rot be villain-Mr. Gilligan Is
! an advocate of home rule.
What certain residents of Butte might
like to know: Why Speaker Corbett
fail to vote on the senatorial question
today until his name was called three
| times? An answer might be obtained
from legislators who journey to Butte
next Saturday afternoon.
Representative Baker has asserted tina
the only angels he has found among the
female clerks of the house have beer
| Wingless Now all that he has ever spok
en- 10 turn up their noses when he arrives
while the others are asking for introduc
tiLnS.
| The illness of Assistant Secretary Stou
of the senate is causing that gentle
mans friends grave concern. Mr.. Stou
| is a perfect gentleman, and his absenc
from duty is noted by all with whom h
| had been wont to come in contact.

A resource of Northern Wisconsin
which seems to have been wholly
neglected thus far is the little known
cranberry. 1t is true that for many
years this section has supplied large
output of this succulent and favored
fruit. Thus far no attempts have
been made to cultivate this-plant on a
large scale and utilize the vast tracts
Of land now marked marshland and
considered by many to be Of no value.
There is no question but what slight
amount of intelligent cultivation and
study of the habits of the cranberry
would result in improving the varieties
and increasing the annual yield and
the land required for the growth of
this berry is generally useless for
other purposes. Telegram.
If the editor of the Telegram will
visit Wood county he will learn some
thing about cranberry culture that
will be of interest to him.

PLAN SAFEGUARDS FOR DEER HUNTERS.
laatter OF Protection viii Come Up at Next
Session OF the LEGISLATURE,

An effort is to be made at the next
meeting OF the state Legislature to
secure some measure Of protection to
human life in the northern woods Of
the state during the deer-hunting
season Of each year. The loss of life
and list of accidents during the season
this year has been something almost
appalling. Every day the newspapers
have had items about casualties due
to the careleSSnesS Of inexperienced
hunters shooting at any moving object,
waiting to see whether it was human
or brute.
Senator J. Herbert Green of the
Fourth district, in discussing the
matter, said he thought it ought to be
made penitentiary offenSe for man
to ShOOt'a human being in the woods
in -the way many have been shot
this fall. He did not think that a
man who shoots another should be
held, providing it is established that
the shooting was purely accidental,
but there are too many who shoot at
any moving object without waiting to
see whether it is a deer or a man.
Senator julius e. Roche of the
Eighth district says that the state
owns all deer within her boundaries
and that she can provide such regula-
tionS as may be deemed necessary.
He also thinks that the killing of
man in mistake for deer, bear, wolf
or any other wild animal should be
made penitentiary offense. 1t would
have tendency to make hunters more
careful and cautious.

A ScOtchman's Views,

Here is bit Of interesting comment
on the late President Mckinley, his
successor and Scotch progressiveness,
by "Wattie,'' whose dialect letters,
"Frae Aud Scotia" are an entertain
ing feature Of the Montreal Star:
''The mournin' for President McKin-
ley was as real here as gin we had
lived in the United States. Ilka flag
is at half-mast still, an in a. the kinks
an places whaur meetin's are held
there has been suitable references.
The papers are teIlin' moo O. his
Scottish ancestry, an hoo his geneal-
ogy can be traced back to Macduff,
the Thane O'Fife, Wha slew Macbeth.
The presidents ancestors were
Staunch Covenanters an they left
auld Scotia in the time o. Charles II.
for Ireland, an frae that they went to
America. The new president, | see
Dy maist o. the papers is a bit o. a
Dutchman, but ane at least o. the
Scottish papers says he can claim
Scottish descent by his mither's side
Sac there ye are again. We will be at
the 'front.'"

Found Guilty.

A great criminal trial has been in
progress at Stevens Point the past
week, it being the case of the state VS..
Mills and Haley, charged with killing
Thomas Davis last July. Mills and
Haley were two young men living in
that city of tough character and
Davis was an old soldier whose home
was at McDill. While in a drunken
state in the rear of saloon the old
man was attacked and beaten in a
most brutal manner and his money
taken from him. He accused Mills
and Haley of making the attack, from
the effects of which he eventually
died. On Tuesday the jury in the
case brought in verdict finding the
defendants, Mills and Haley, guilty OF
manslaughter in the third degree.
The penalty is two to four years in
Waupun.

Water Works Notes,

The recent test of the pipe crossing
the river gave much better results
than the first test. 1t withstood a
pressure of 150 pounds for about
one-half hour, but it showed a leakage
of about 10 quarts per minute, whereas
it should show a leakage of only 81
gallons per hour. The contractors
will have to remedy this defect before
the job will be accepted by the city.
The new pump house and reservoir
on the east side near the Northwestern
tracks, is completed and the pumps
and mOterS are on the ground and will
be placed in position this week.
1t IS expected that connections
between the east and west side
systems will be made during the coming
fortnight. when it will be possible to
supply the whole city with spring
water.

The Northwestern road has placed a
f1agman at the Cranberry street cross
ing to help protect the public against
the danger of accidents there. The
Wisconsin Central and the st. Paul
road have not acted in this matter
yet, but the chances are that they
will do so shortly The crossing on
the G. NJ. & st. Paul road on Gran
berry street is the worst of the bunch
2S there are many more tracks there,
which, when filled with cars, become
extremely dangerous. But these flag
men do not comply with the city
ordinance requiring gates at all these
crossings. and at best they are only
partial and in fact very Inadequate
protection. Marshtield and Stevens
Point have both tried the flags and
found them failures. MarShtield re-
Gently passed an ordinance requiring
gates, the same as this city has done.
None OF the roads paid any attention
to this ordinance, and the city
attorney of that city recently begun
proceedings against them to compel
them to comply with the ordinance.
These proceedings have had the
desired effect and all the roads are
now preparing to construct gates.
That is just what this city should do
in the matter. The roads can be
forced to build the gates and it is to
the interest of the city and the
general public that they be made to
do so.

After several inquiries all Of whom
advised him to go to Upham. He
secured work in one of the Upham
logging camps at Athens. The name
Upham being so universally used he
at once sized up that gentleman as a

meaning in the Boer language uncle,
and so ever after when referring to
the Major he called him Dom Upham.
Mr.. WueSt is an exceptionally bright
young man and speaks several lang

the priesthood, but cast it aside for
adventure and travel. He is personally
acquainted with President Kruger and
his story of the people and the war in
South Africa is pathetic and interest
ing.

The Grand Rapids Herald has reach
ed the conclusion that for some reason
domestic felicity and acute reform do
not go hand in hand. Very early"
says the Herald. they develop an in
compatibility which leads first to
estrangement and then to divorce. The
case of the Lease family win illustrate
this. The family lived quietly and hap

day she is a widow. with New

case of Prof Heron may be recalled
When he was the pastor of small

his domestic skies were as clear as a

OF reform, though Of a different type
from that which afflicted Mrs. Lease,
and what has since happened is mat
ter Of history. The latest illustra ton
is afforded by Carrie Nation. She, too.
was happy In her home life but when
she became a reformer with a Ratchet
trouble began brewing and it has cul-
minated in the divorce court with Car

the acute type and the moral is to be-
ware Of them, or at least TO indulge in
them with great moderation
