COMMISSION MEN ORGANIZE
OFFICERS ARE ELECTED AND A
CHARTER APPLIED FOR.
Plans Are Made to Enforce Rules for
Regulation of Business-WiII
Elect Directors.

When it was settled that Wichita was
ers and the millers organized a board of
trade in order to facilitate the business.
Wichita has had hog market for SONS
time, but the first Live Stock exchange
on a permanent basis was organized
yesterday.
The commission men and the packers
have been talking about the organization
of a live stock exchange for some time.
and they got together yesterday and
elected officers and a charter will be
applied for at once.
The officers elected were: President,
A. 3. Moore; vice president, W. NJ
Paugh; secretary, c. a. Stuart; treasurer,
e. ]. Healey. II was arranged for the
officers to elect the directors, and the
understanding is that the directory will
consist of C. P. Johnson and repre-
sentative of each OF the packing houses
and the stock yards.
The organization of the exchange will
enable the men interested in the live
stock business to make and enforce rules
for the regulation of the business, and
in many ways will make the business
more satisfactory for those concerned
1t will also enable the whole interest
centered in the market to meet the rail-
roads and talk over business. The roads
might do some things that would help
the business at the yards, and the COM
mission men and the packers do not want
any scraps with the railroads. They do
not want any inside on the other fellows.
but want an even show.
Wichita is the center of one of the best
hog sections Of the west and the packers
in this city are fighting their way into
all the markets of the world with their
products, and for the success of this
business the packers, the railroad peo-
pie. the commission men, the stock yards
company and the farmers in Wichitas
territory have a common interest.

The 500 is Free From Ice, and Boats
Are Moving.
THERE is STILL PLENTY OF ICE.
A Steamer Was Expected at the Elevator
Tuesday, But the Arrival Was DELAYED
For Some Unexplained Cause
Ferry Boats Next Week.

News from Sault Ste Marie tells of
the opening of the 500 last Friday,
and the first boats to pass up were
the Leafeld and Agawa. So naviga-
tion can now be said to be open.
There is still an abundance of ice in
Cheguamegon bay, but steamer
could find it's way through the rot
ton mass, and the toot of the whistle
is expected at any time. A heavy
wind is making it's impression on the
solid mass. The ferry boats will
perhaps be running in another week
and boats for shipping purposes are
liable to begin to arrive at any time.
So much of commercial life depends
upon navigation at the numerous
lake ports that it is indeed pleasant
time of the year when the season of
navigation comes and is unrestricted
by the vast formations of ice in the
harbors.

THE MILLS START.
Thompson and Akelev & Sprague
Start Monday.
HINES is ALSO RUNNING.
Prs operations are Being Made for Starting
Up In the Woods, and to Commence
Rail Hau1s.-A Banner Season
is Expected
HINES is ALSO RUNNING.

The Thompson mill, the Akeley
& Sprague mill, and the Hines mill
are now grinding out lumber. The
first two started the first of the
week, while the Hines mill has just
got to running. 1t was expected
that the Hines mill would start the
first of the week, but unavoidable
delay caused the mill to hold off a
couple or three days. This will
likely be the banner season for
Washburn saw mills as they are
figuring on cutting their full capa-
city. Things have been mighty
lively about the mills during the
past week getting ready for the
starting up. New crews have been
secured and the repairs and changes
in the mills had to be completed,
which made things mighty lively.
The Hines Company will begin haul
ing logs next week, and their crews
in the woods are going in rapidly
and things are being put in shape at
the camps and along the railroad
for an active season.

LaPointe Hotel Goes up in % Balloon. Z
Bayfield, Press: F. o. Tarbox, of
Ashland, one of the three who are
interested in the new boat for Cheou-
amegon bay, which is now nearing
completion, was in the city Wednes-
day anxiously awaiting word from
LaPointe in regards to the election
on the license question, or "wet and
dry" move.
Crossing the ice at this stage of
the game is dangerous proposition,
but the messenger got over safety,
although he refused to 60 back be-
cause the ice was so bad. The news
came, but it was not just what Mr..
Torbox wanted to hear. The mes
senger said the struggle was hard
one, but that the "dry' people had
become accustomed to Lake Superb
or water and were willing to drink
it for another twelve months.
They won by a margin of five votes
not many-but enough to send the
promised hotel so high in the air
that the chances are ten to one that it
will not drop on beautiful Madeline.
The island people seemed to be
thoroughly familiar with the result
of a "dry" election, but apparently
it made no particular difference with
them. Many campaign lodges were
used such as, instead of hotel Ash
land people we're going to run a
twenty-five cent lunch counter, I"
and the new boat to be put on was
merely an old craft built over. Mr..
Tarbox says these are falsehoods of
the rankest kind and if the islanders
voted on the strength of them they
were doped and made a decided mis-
take. 1t is also stated that a letter,
supposed to have been written by
Thos. Culver, of the Ashland brewery
offering to furnish money to bring
about the desired outcome, was cir
culated with telling effect. This, al
so, may be forgery, and if such is
the case, will undoubtedly cause
someone heap Of trouble.
In any event it's all eff with the
hotel as far as Madeline island is
concerned, but that it may be erect
ed elsewhere on the bay seems more
than probable.

Shue at HAYWARD.
Supt.

Harry Shue has been reelected
Chairman of the town of Hayward.
Mr.. Shue served his town in that
capacity for lumber of years, and
was defeated year ago in move
ment instituted IN his town for ere
form government. Evidently the
people had enough of reform as they
have called their old Chairman back
to the charge of town affairs. Mr..
Shue is man of ability and is wide
ly known throughout northern Wis
consin. The handsome indorse-
ment he has received at the hands
of his fellowtownsmen must certain
ly be gratifying after the bitter
struggle he has passed through.

Iron River Pioneer: One admir-
ing friend of Judge Atkinson depos-
tied the Judges circular letter to
voters in the ballot box TUESDAY in
stead of judicial ballot. While
the inspectors were of the opinion
that the voter intended to vote for
Judge Atkinson the ballot was not
counted, In speaking about defect
ed ballots it is surprising how many
voters know nothing about marking
a ballot. There were l46 wholly de-
fective Judicial ballots cast here Tues
day and many other ballo is were
partially defective.

A Pro1emic View

When the average citizen deposits
his ballot on election day for the
public servants he desires to see
to handle the affairs of the
municipality, he believes, or seems
to believe, that that is all the atten-

until the next time he is cslled upon
to choose between aspirants for
Office, and this is where he makes a

CROWD ASSEMBLED FOR HER SAKE
The Great Russian and Siberian Drama
Was Realistically Staged.

The Great Russian and Siberian Drama
Was Realistically Staged.
The production of no play has
ever been more highly appreciated
by the people of Oklahoma's capital
city than was that of "For Her
Sake" staged in an admirable man
ner last night at the Brooks theatre.
1t was splendid production from
start to flush and the company
made big hit here. Manager
Brooks is to be congratulated in Sc
curing such an attraction.
A bare synopsis of the story con-
veyed in this new four-act melodra-
ma. depicting Russian and Siberian
life, would consume column, for
with the characteristic profusion of
intrigue common to most Siberian
plays, plot is interviewer with plot
Ia fashion consonant. according TO
tradition, with the character Of the
people with which it has to do. The
tale, in brief, is that of a Russian
prince of the blood and beautiful
serf maiden, of opposition and in
trigue on the part of the princes
family, and political skull-duggery
on the part of one of the czar's min
ions, an agent of the secret police.
The prince is reduced to the status
Of Siberian exile as is the serf
maiden with whom he becomes
enamored. The piece is rapid in &C
ton and of intense dramatic quality.
The senical effects are elaborate
a d costly and true to the facts of
life in the localities involved. The

AFTER RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
Passengers Avoid That Portion Of
the Train which Has Heen
Worst Wrecked.

| "It's a peculiar thing" said pas.
| senger train brakeman on the Central
railroad Of New Jersey the day follow
| ing the fatal rear-end collision near
| Westfield, N J., that for several days
passengers avoid that portion OF the
train that was most seriously wrecked
in any mishap~and many careful peo-
pie do SO for weeks, sometimes months.
They do not seem to believe in the old
saying that lightning never strikes
twice in the same place. To-day, for
instance, the passengers ON the line
have taken seats as far forward as
possible-if not in the forward coach
es in the cars in which they do ride,
just because it was the rear end of the
Easton local that was most seriously
crushed in the recent wreck. They
will continue to do so as long as the
memory of that disaster is fresh, and
those who do not forget easily will not
sit in the rear end until there is am
other accident in which some other
part OF the train is injured and the
front end suffers greatest"
Guards ON the elevated trains have
noticed a similar thing on the"L, " says
the New York Times. When rear car |
has jumped the track, and the newspa-
pers tell Of the narrow escapes the oc-
cupants had, many passengers prefer
to stand in the forward coaches rather
than sit in the rear end. The same is
true, they say, of the front of the mo-
tor car, when an accident happens to
1t. But, Of course, there are other peo-
pie who do believe in the old saw, and
choose that section of train that has
been wrecked, on the theory that an
other such accident will not occur
within the century
