the public of public affairs is a good
thing because it disseminates intelli-
.gence and responsibility. but 1t may
be carried so far as to foster chronic
grumbling and injure the good name
of our city. If the community be-
haves itself with moderation and good
judgment the young people of the
graduating class will not be slow TO
put themselves in line with a good,
healthy public sentiment School
boards and teachers are public SER
wants and their actions and methods
are open to the public approval and
criticims, but they are doing our work
in our great educational system and
deserve our hearty and unqualified

1t is understood that the teachers
have appointed committee to make
visit to the board CT to members OF
the board to have an explanation or
an understanding concerning certain
phases of or incidents in the happen
ings Of last week. 1t seems that
some little dissatisfaction has been
caused with some of the teachers and
hence the appointment CT the COM
mittee. A number Of the scholars
will be made a part of the committee
for the purpose Of getting corroborat,

FROM MISSOURI.

4 letter has been received by the
editor of this paper from Geo. w. lie,
eler, who formerly lived in Wausau,
but who is now in business in Lock
wood. Mo. Among other things Mr.
Ziegler states:
My family and | like the change we
made in moving here, as we have the
nice mild winters we sought for. We
have had a little frost but not until
lately, and farmers are now husking
corn, and blowing their fields. Stock
has good pasture in the winter wheat
fields as they have in the summer on
grass land This is great fruit section
as almos: all fruits do well, from the
luseieus peach to the big red apple; in
facs this section is called the Land Of
the Big Red Apple aud the name il
well bestowed.
I'VE live on plateau on the Ozars
range of mountains and its altitude
makes the climate very temperate and
mild. therefore also very healthful
We did not like to leave all our friend:
behind in the north, but now We fee
pleased with the change, because iiviDz
Is more pleasant here than in the nortt
where the winters are so severe"
He also states that he is engaged il
the mercantile business and finds Lock
wood a good business town.

COUNTY BOARD.

The county board met last Tuesday
afternoon and remained in session uh
til Thursday afternoon. There was
nothing startling in character done and
the business was mostly of routine
nature. The COMMITTEES that had been
appointed to settle with the county
officers made their reports, and the
bonds of the county officers were
accepted, and a number of bills allowed.
1t was decided to take the supervision
of the management of the poor farm
from the poor con- nittee and place it
in the hands of the asylum trustees
These trustees shall visit the farm
occasionally, and any suggestions they
may offer shall be followed out by the
superintendent, aud it will also be their
duty to purchase all supplies needed for
the farm. Outside of these changes
the poor committee will still exercise
its authority as heretofore with refer
ence to the county poor. This change
may work to the good of the institution
TIE trustees cannot visit the place too
often, for while little complaint has
been made as to the management OF
the poor house within the last few
years, still there have been startling
accusations made in reference to it in the
past. and there appeared to be good
ground for such charges. The office
of poor superintendent is a thankless
one, and one in which hard work makes
but little showing, and some men in
that position, who may Ee of weak
nature, become discouraged and get
careless.

AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.

The Marathon County Agricultural
society held its annual meeting in
the supervisors room in the court
house. Wednesday evening, being at
tended by 35 or 40 people. A commit
tee consisting of G. d. Jones, L. X.
Wright and Jacob Simmer, delegated
n year ago 10 draft new constitution,
made its report and the new constitu-
tion as revised was adopted. BY its
changes the secretary and treasurer are
required to give a bond and county
board members are given the right to
participate in meetings of the society
and are made ex-officio members.
Taking up the proposition of turning
the grounds over to the county as a
permanent park for fair purposes, it
was deemed advisable not to make such
a move at the present time at least.
The secretary and treasurer made the
following report of receipts and expen-
ditures for the year just closed;

of St. Louis. asking for a street railway
franchise for fifty years, the first ten Of
which shall be exclusive, was also re-
ferred to the special comniittee APP
pointed to investigate the application

These parties agree that such fran
chise, if granted, shall become void if
after six months, they have not com
menced surveying out routes and sub
mitted plans to the city engineer show
ing what streets and bridges will be
used, etc They also agree to have a
line built from the heart of the city as
far south as the cemetery within eigh-
teen months, and within two and one
half years to have such line completed
as far north as the city of Merrill. In
consideration of the franchise being
granted and by terms of the petition

almost useless, as well as dangerous.
The board of public works was in
structed to purchase 1000 cords of rock
at 81 per cord. The committee was also
instructed to lay new floors in the base
ment of the city hall.
A resolution was referred to the pub
