CHANCE TO SAVE TAXES.

There is a matter which though at
first sight looks small, yet if taken into
consideration by those whose lands
border on public highways, and espec-
tally farmers, may result materially in
the reduction of their taxes in years to
come. According to Sec. 1874 of the
Revised Statutes, one may plant trees
along a highway two rods apart within
8 feet of the outer line of the road
These may be accepted as public prop
erty by the superintendent of highways
but the title shall remain with the
owner. If they are growing thriftily
and are maintained by the owner, he is
entitled to credit of B cents rod if
on one side, or 10 cents n rod if on both
sides of the road, on his highway taxes.
The owner is also allowed to enclose
the trees in a fence while growing.
Thus it is plain to be seen that where Il
man has large farm, say $40 acres, as
many have, bordering on both sides of
a highway by planting out shade trees
along such highway and keeping the
same in good condition, he can save
considerable each year on his road tax,
besides enhancing the value and beauty
of his place.

NEW MORNING DAILY.

The Free Press, Milwaukee's new
morning newspaper, about which there
has been great deal of interest through
out the state, will make its first appear
ance, it is announced early in June.
Its mechanical outfit of linotype ma
chimes and presses, ordered a few weeks
ago, win, il is expected, be fully installed
by the last of the month. The Free Press
will be located at 1856 Grand Avenue,
opposite the Plankinton House, where
the new company has already taken
possession of two large stores, with
entrances on the avenue and on Second
street. H. p Myrick, who will be
editor of the new paper, says that from
assurances already received, not only
from Milwaukee, but from all parts of
the state, the Free Press will start out
with a very large subscription list.
While systematic canvas of the state
and city has only just begun, hundreds
OF advance voluntary subscriptions have
have been sent in, showing unmistaka-
bly,, he believes, the general sentiment
in Wisconsin for an independent Repub-
lican morning newspaper in the metrop-
oils of the state The Free Press will
aim to cover the state news field fully
and it has arranged for complete gen.
eral news service.

BEATEN BY HOBOES.

VIM. Marth, of this city, while on his
way home from Chippewa Falls arrived
at Marshfeld on Wednesday evening
in company with friend, and sat down
to rest near the water tank of the Wis
consin Central road and incidentally to
rush the can. While they were thus
engaged, six Weary Willies came along
and took hand in the drinking and
then invited the boys to accompany
them. Marth did so but his friend be-
came suspicious and left the crowd
They entered a box car and the tramps
were not long in becoming noisy, and
jumping on Marth robbed him of what
money he had, 1926, and then kicked
and beat him severely. His cries
brought the chief of police and a citi-
zen to his assistance and four of the no.
boes were arrested. The prisoners who
were the toughest looking specimens
of humanity that ever clicked up the
pike" were arraigned the next morn
ing in court on the charge Of assault
al theft without being armed" and an
adjournment of their case was taken.
Marth was badly bruised about the
head, and one eye was closed as the
result of a kick.

THE STREET RAILWAY.

The ordinance recently granted by
the city council to the Wisconsin Valley
Electric Company has been accepted by
that company, and the acceptance filed
with the city clerk. But the question
now is whether the street railway will
ever be built. Some think that the in
cOrporators arc acting in good faith,
while others have grave fears that the
scheme will never come to a head. 1t
is rumored that the company proposed
to sell its option held on the Merrill
street railway and the lighting plant to
paper company of Sparta, and that
the deal is off so far as\that end of the
line is concerned. On the other hand
it is said that the company now has
men at work between this city and Mer-
rill with view to determining the best
possible route. Mr. Frawley, represent
ing the company, was in the city the
middle of last week, and positively
stated that civil engineers would be at
work surveying out a line between
Schofield and Merrill, and that work
would be commenced on the construc-
ton of the same at the earliest practi-
cal time. However time will tell.
