"A Great CITY,"

This is what w. e. Green, of the
Oshkosh Times terms Grand Rapids
He was here last week looking over
the city and, like other visitors, was
greatly impressed with it's present
prosperity and possibilities for future
growth. He said: "You people have
a great city, but it is nothing at
present WHAT it will be in a few years.
Why, it has grown SO much in a year
that [ can now hardly recognize it.
The city has a live and progressive
paper in the REPORTER. 1t is doing
great deal for the city and county.
The change from a weekly to a semi
weekly is bound to make the REPORTER
d leader among the newspapers of
Central Wisconsin,"

Potato Was Too HEAVY.

Last week the REPORTER published
an account in it's Looking Backward"
column of a potato weighing eleven
and half pounds which had been
grown on the farm of Alanson Blake,
in the town of Rudolph, September
49, 1872. On this subject, Attorney
B. NJ. Vaughan says: "Alanson Blake
was my grandfather. The potato in
question was brought by me to Grand
Rapids and presented to the RE-
PORTER. The weight, however, was not
eleven and a half pounds, bat two
pounds, eleven ounces. l remember
that potato very we'll. We had large
number of heavy potatoes in those
days: it was nothing unusual to get a
peck from five or six hills"

Speak Well Of the CITY.

Reader, don't allow anybody n your
presence to run down the city of
Grand Rapids or in any way speak
disparagingly of it. Don't be a
"knocker," but on the contrary do
everything you can to advertise favor
ably the city in which you live and
always speak good word for it. The
man or woman who can't speak we'll
of the community in which they live
might better move out, in preference
to speaking untavorably of it. Give
the stranger who comes into our midst
a cordial greeting and make him feel
at home here, encouraging him to
buy and build and become permanent
resident. Do everything you can to
build up, and refrain from tearing
down.

INQUIRY WILL
BE IMPARTIAL
President Roosevelt Orders Full
est Investigation Of Post
Office Scandal.
is VERY ANXIOUS TO
FIX THE RESPONSIBILITY
Determined That no Guilty Per-
son Shall Escape Penalty
for Wrong Doing.

Washington, June 15.-There APP
pears to be a lull in the investigation
of the post Office scandals just at
present, but it is only temporary,
and due to the fact that evidence is
being prepared on which to arrest
and punish the next of the ring. 1t
can be stated ON the highest author
ity that the crisis of the investfga-
ton will come within a few days,
perhaps this week, and that it will
be foreshadowed by the arrest of a
former official of the department,
who has for several weeks been I'M
der surveillance at his home.
President in Earnest.
President Roosevelt is in dead ear
nest in demanding that the investi-
cations shall go to the bottom and
take in everybody who has been
guilty of wrongdoing in any branch
of the postal service. He means
business, and he has, moreover, given
his assurance that at the proper
time the public shall be made ac-
quainted with every fact developed,
no matter who is the victim.
Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen.
eral Bristow has been told to make
the investigation thorough without
fear or favor, and he will do it or
President Roosevelt will demand the
reason why. Bristow's reply to the
Tulloch charges will soon be COM
pleted and made public, and it will
show clearly what basis there was
for the Tulloch charges, which, how
ever true they may be, are not in
themselves very serious as compared
with the accusations against Machen,
Beavers and the rest.
Gossip About Heath.
There has been much irresponsible
talk about the alleged maladministra-
ton of former Postmaster General
Perry S. Heath, secretary of the re-
publican national committee, based
on the somewhat intangible charges
of Seymour w. Tulloch, former cash
Ter of the Washington post Office,
which Heath, Charles Emory Smith,
Postmaster General Payne, and all
others directly concerned have pro-
nounced to be false
Now that they have started in, the
president and Postmaster General
Payne will not rest until every
guilty person has been exposed and
punished. The storm will, it is
thought, have reached it's fullest
height before the president goes to
Oyster Bay for the summer time dur
ing the present month.
