quarter. Two telephone sys-
TENS is likely to prove a good
deal of a nuisance to the people
of the city, but the people have
no choice evidently in this mat
ter, as both companies are
bound to stick, and Washburn-
ties might just as well realize
where they are at right away,
and get together and agree that
the entire patronage will go to
either one company or the other.
Two telephones IN a place of
business or a residence is going
to prove a nuisance. If the
Wisconsin Telephone Company
has proved itself worthy of pat
ronage it might be well to con-
tinue with them if they have
favored some at the expense of
others, and if their service is
not irst-class, then there is rea-
son to want change. But for
part of the people to take one
phone, and others to take
another, is only going to result
in confusion. There should be
meeting of business men, and
all people who rent telephones
should agree as to which phone
they will have on their walls. It
is not good business policy for
people to give individual SUBJ
scriptions to the new company,
as this is going to confuse mat
tiers. Telephone users should
act together instead of individ,
ually.

Rev. Sinclair Leaves.

Reverend D. M. Sinclair, who has
for the past year been pastor of the
M. E. church, in this city, left yes
terday morning for a visit with his
son in Minnesota after which he will
go to Reedsburg, this state, where
he will make his home. Mr.. Sinclair
has served in the ministry forty five
years, during which time he has
missed but fourteen Sundays, and
will now retire for a time at least
from the work
Without an exception he was one
of the best liked ministers that ever
filed a pulpit in this place. His IN
f1uence both in and outside of the
church was at all times a source of
good to the community and his
presence will be missed by all classes
accordingly. Several farewell
social events were given in Mr.. Sin
clair S honor before he left, among
then. a pleasant affair by the Masonic
lodge of which he is a member.
No one who has ever left our CITY
has carried with them better wishes
for happy future than does Rever
end and Mrs. Sinclair.

BIG THINGS LABOR DAY
The Celebration to Exceed Any Previous One Ever
Held i'm Northern Wisconsin.

Before another issue of THE TIMES
IS published the biggest Labor Day
celebration in the history of North
Prn Wisconsin will have become a
shing of the past. The WashbIrn
labor organizations have taken hold
of the matter in the right way and
ever since the matter became de-
Enitely settled that Washburn was
10 celebrate, have been actively
pushing the thing to a finish. AS
early as the last of last week the
streets began to show that some
thing would be doing. Great arches
we're on the ground ard Monday
morning these were placed IN posi-
Sion. A large crew of men took the
matter in charge and worked with a
. vim that has characterized the
whole preparation, until the arches
we're erected.
Nothing that could be done up
10 date to make tie celebration the
best that could be held, has been
neglected. The plans as originally
laid out look small now to the com
mittees as the day will exceed first
expectations. When first talked OF
st was expected that Washburn and
Ashland would furnish the crowd.
Since then, however, the field has
widened till every town within
radius of hundred miles will con ri
butte it's quota of visitors, and many
of the nearer ones will send almost
sheir entire population. Port Wing
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1903-09-03

has chartered boat to bring its
people here, and Red Cliff has done
likewise. Boats and trains will
bring crowds from Bayfield,. Iron
River will be here en-masse and
Ashland will be almost depopulated.
The smaller towns down the line will
all come, and Hayward will send a
large delegation along with it's ball
team to root for them and to take in
the celebration. From the iron
mining regions the miners unions
will come in a body and the smaller
towns down the Central will each
contribute their quota. All roads
with the exception of the Omaha,
have made favorable rates for the
visitors.
All sports originally intended will
be carried out and others have been
added. There will be something do
Ing all over town all day long.
When the matter was first talked of
it was thought that two bands would
be needed but from indications now
it looks as though there would be no
less than five bands and possibly
six. |
Altogether the prospects for big
day were never so good as they are
at present. From rather modest
beginning the plans of the commit
tees have been enlarged till it seems
there is scarcely any limit to the
gala features that will greet the Wis
itors to this city on Labor Day.

The Telephone Situation.


President G. A. L4amoreaux,
Manager Jacks, and Messrs.
McCIoud and Strong were in the
city Tuesday, and succeeded in
interesting a mum Der of our
local people in the new Home
Telephone Company. Among
their subscribers were some of
the largest business firms in the
city, and the company expects
shat they will be able to put in
several hundred phones as the
result of soliciting which they
expect to do. It is rather to be
regretted that there is to be a
telephone war in Washburn, but
jt is evident that the new COM
pany means business, and with
the local support that is certain
TO come to them they will be able
80 secure strong foothold at
once. This much is assured to
the new company. The TIMES
has rather regretted the arrival
Of the new company for many
reasons that will occur to any
