CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
George N. Wallace's Resolutions for Municipal Ownership Rejected

George N. Wallace's Resolutions for
 Municipal Ownership Rejected-Other
 Business.
 There was an unusually good attend ance at the regular meeting of the Chamber of Commerce last night. The principal matter for consideration was George M. Wallace's motion concerning municipal ownership of gas plants, wa ter works, street railroads, telephones, etc. This matter was presented to the Chamber last June and then referred to the executive committee, which com mittee reported against the adoption of any of the resolutions At last nights meeting the report of the committee was accepted and there was a debate on the matter of adoption. MT. Wal lace, who has undoubtedly investigated the subject very thoroughly, was the first and principal speaker, He cited much data giving the experience of many other cities in the world who have municipal ownership of public utilities. There contained many con vincing proofs of his contention and MT. Wallace was given the closest of attention by all present..
 Hon. c. s. Hamilton stated that if any fault was to be found With charges for service by any of the companies that he favored an attack on that spe- clfic matter and not on all companies in this wholesale manner. He favored adopting the executive committees re- port.
 William Trueman was the next speaker. He favored MT. Wallace's res- olution and said that he considered it the only practical way to settle the question of too much taxation
 Henry H. Newton was another speak CT and he favored the adoption of the resolutions in a modified state. He con- sidered them too broad in scope to be dealt with in their entirety.
 A formal vote was taken on the adop- ton of the resolutions, and they were rejected by a vote of 16 to 9.
 Hon. J., D. Dewell reported for the legislative committee to which was re- ferred the matter of proposed changes in the bankruptcy law. Upon his sug- gestion the Chamber voted to invite Referee Newton of the colal United States bankruptcy court to read a pa per on the subject at the next meet ing.
 The invitation to become member spectfully declined. To the committee on legislation was referred the proposed petition to congress for the repeal of the 15 per cent. ad valorem duty on hides imported into this country.

Northern Wisconsin Development.

Northern Wisconsin Development.
That rapidly developing terri
tory which occupies the northern
half of Wisconsin is not new
enough to cause the hardships
and vicissitudes of frontier life.
and not old enough to keep
away the intending settler on &C
count Of exorbitant land prices.
1t is in that stage of partial de-
velopment which gives greater
opportunity to bring it to the
highest point of perfection and
prosperity. Schools, goodroads
and other improvements are go
ing III. All that is needed, is
small capital. Drawn and
brain, supplemented bypush and
energy WILL do the rest. The
iron ore, mari, kaolin and CLAW
beds, the timber and the rich soil
give equal opportunity to the
settler and the manufacturer.
Land is cheap and can be pur-
chased on easy terms.

offers facilities for the quick and
cheap transportation Of it's pro-
