Captain on Steamer Talks About
Labor,
SAYS IT'S MOST SATISFACTORY
One OF the Old Lake Captains Says That II
He Had His Way He Would Allow
None But Union Labor on
His Boats.
Ore of the Captains of a lumbe

Ore OF the Captains of lumber
boat which has been coming here
this summer said to THE TINES the
other day: "You know there is one
thing pleasant about our business
ard that is the relations we have
with st,se unions. To illustrate, in
some ports we are obliged to employ
non union labor, and when things 90
wrong they are sure to 60 dead
wrong. I had little experience
here with the ongshoresm en't
Union which shows the satisfaction
of dealing with responsible parties.
BY an error on my last trip over
paid the crew $11. Before the mis-
tade was noticed we were cut loose
from the dock and on our way down
the lakes. Shortly afterwards I dis
covered the mistake, but so had the
Longshoresmen and the money had
ovdrpaid them was promptly sent to
my home address. Now this may be
triaing matter but it only goes to
show how different it is in dealing
with different kinds of labor. This
money would never have been re-
turned to me had we had a non union
crew And hasidas this tho T,onu-
shoresman here take hold of their
work right, and when they start to
load your boat you can rest assured
that they will do the job just as
quickly as possible, and do it right
too" The Captain added that he
had sailed the lakes a great many
years, and that if he had his way
about it he would deal only with
union labor.

A Combination of Circumstances Will
Make Tax Rate Edsv.
LARGE SAVINGS TO TAXPAYERS.
Owing to Decrease in School Loans and
State Tax, and Other Items, the
Taxpayers Will Get off Easy
This Year.

Everything combines to make
cheap taxes this year, and the tax
payers will be agreeably surprised
when they settle with Town Treasur-
er Lee little latter on. There are
several reasons for this, one of the
reasons being that the school loans
are $264O less than last year, and the
state having made no levy for gener-
al purposes there will be saving
there to the Washburn taxpayers of
$3.50. In addition to this there is
the Nye-Jenks grain, which it kept
on the roll, will havea tendency to
reduce taxes, and also the lumber
assessed to non residents on the
Hines docks. Of course these two
last items may have to be made up
for next year, but that need not
bother the taxpayer until the time
comes around for settlement in 1904.

Wisconsin Telephone Company Don't
Like Competition.
BUT NEW COMPANY GOES AHEAD
Two Hundred of the New Phones to be In
Operation by Close of Week.-Old
Company Refuse to Take Out
Phones for Subscribers

The new telephone company
have about $50 instruments in
working order today, and three
"hello" girls are ans wering calls
at the Office of the company,
which is located underneath
the Northern State Bank. Local
Manager Clarence Wright said
yesterday that by the end of the
week the system would have
fully two hundred subscribers
connected. The largest part of
the construction crew were laid
off last night. Two wagons are
busy with men putting in new
instruments. The company's
experts will be kept here a few
days to make sure that the line
is in working order.
The attitude of the Wisconsin
Telephone Company has been
much of question, as the com
pany has not made any move up
to within day CT two, when they
refused to take out phones when
ordered, claiming that their con.
tracts were in force. It is said
that some of the telephone users
have disconnected their instru-
ments and notified the company
to that effect.

One-of the prettiest parties ever
given in the city was the one at the
Masonic hall last Friday night. The
event had been arranged entirely by
a number of the young ladies of the
place, and they had the hall tasteful
ly decorated for the occasion. The
music was furnised by the Ashland
Mandolin Club, and the number of
people who were in attendance was
quite large. Refreshments were
served during the evening, and che
affair was pronounced a great sue
cess, and no end of credit is due to
the young ladies' who planned and
carried it out so successfully.
