A REAL HERO.

Monday noon as S. A. Spafford
and Alpha Snyder were coming
down the Spafford hill, they heard a
woman scream, and looking behind
them, saw a runaway horse
coming in full speed. The horse was
attached to a covered buggy in
which woman was making a
desperate effort to hold her babe OF
about one year old and keep the horse
straight in the road. Mr.. Snyder
acted on the impulse of the nome at
and with the desire to save the
woman and her child, sprahg in front
of the horse and gra bbed it by the bits
as it rushed past. 1t was desperate
struggle tor a few rods, but Mr..
Snyder being a large and powerful
man succeeded in stopping the horse.
The woman lived in the neighborhood
of the four mile creek. The horse
became frightened by a person passing
it on wheel and doubtless would
have done much damage had it not
been for Mr.. SnYder'S prompt action
and daring effort. This however, is
Mr.. Snyder's third experience of this
kind, and he deserves much credit
for his courage and skill.

GRAND RAPIDS ENTER
TAINMENT COURSE

Next week the different city papers
will speak of the six entertainments
to be given this winter and have
something to say in regard to the
different speakers and entertainers.
Cards will be circulated for the pur-
pose OF securing the name of those
who wish to purchase season tickets.
The committee has fixed the price of
these tickets at .S1.25 cents for the
six entertainments. but those who
wish to secure reserved seat will be
required to pay ten cents extra for
each entertainments. The committee
is anxious to make this SO plain, that
there will be no misunderstanding
connected with it. The method of
reServing the seats will be arranged
with view of fairness giving each an
equal opportunity to secure their
seats. And in doing this the CON-
mittee are fully conscious of the fact
that it will be impossible to select
any one of the many systems for
securing seats that will meet the
approval of all. As the first enter
tainment takes place the last of
October, it will be necessary to begin
the work next week, of knowing just
how many tickets will be subscribed

CENTRAL WISCONSIN FAIR

On next Tuesday, September. q,
the fair at Marshfield will open and
continue until and including the 3Oth.
There is every reason to believe and
expect that this fair will be far in
advance of anything ever held in this
part of the state The season has
been an ideal one, for the farmer in
most respects. And an excellent dis
play Of farm products is certain, as
our display of Wood county at the
state fair indicates. The people of
Grand Rapids and Of the entire
county ought to take deep interest
in this educator to all and especially
to the farmer, and an inspiration to
each and all to make our county
second to none IN the state. We
really hope that the fair will be
largely attended by the people of
Grand Rapids. 1t is also hoped and
expected that they will do their full
part toward contributing exhibit for
the fair.
1t has been definitely settled that
Coy. La Toilette will speak here in
Grand Rapids, on next Thursday
morning, September 20. He will also
speak on the same day in the after
noon on the fair grounds at Marsh
field, and in the evening he will make
a political speech at the opera house
in Marshfield. The program for the
races at the fair are everything that
could be desired, and the Marshfield
people are deserving of much credit
for the enterprise shown in securing
these attractions. As the railroads
are Offering excursion rates, there is
no excuse for the fair not being well
represented by the people of Grand
| Rapids. In the next issue of the
REPORTER we will give list of some
| of the attractions.

MORE RATIONAL METHODS

Is it not time to call a halt to the
reasonless uncharity of political and
partisan and sectional newspapers?
1t is legitimate to argue the merits
of ones own party, the soundness of
it's principles and the records Of it's
administration Of power. 1t is legiti-
mate and fair TO criticise the platform
the plans, the policy and the record
of opposing parties.
NarrOwDess. intolerance, bitterness,
injustice, and character wrecking are
unworthy of the greatness and of the
power of the American press and un-
worthy of the press of the world. 1t
is one of the better things of the
coming day, that the press shall be
faithful without being fierce, loyal
without lying, true to it's friends, just
to it's enemies and as fearlessly fair
as it shall be splendidly free.
Among dozen suggestions OF this
inspiring hour we rest upon these two.
Fl we can eliminate the spirit OF
trucking to interest and the spirit OF
selfish ambition; if we can magnify
the sense of dignity and the deeper
sense of responsibility and the even
more glorious idea of impartial truth
in our mighty craft, then we have
reached rational methods.

THE SEASON FOR FRUIT

The Duchess apple season is now
at an end, they have been plenti
full this year and of an excellent
quality, but they are not good keepers,
and on this account cannot command
very high price. The indications
are at present for an abundant supply
of winter apples, and they will be
quoted at very low prices. They will
be more than usually plentiful on
account of the fact there has been an
abundant yield of apples in England
this year, and on account of this there
will be but few apples imported there
from the United States. Generally a
large part of the big New York crop
is exported to England, but this year
nearly all Of this crop will be thrown
on the home market. The New York
apples are generally recognized as
among the very best grown. In
former years the bulk OF the local
winter apple supply came from
Michigan, but the New York stock
is preferred here. There will be
southern apples brought here from
Missouri, most of them OF the Ben
Davis variety. With the opening of
next week the Concord grapes from
New York will be here in large ship
ments. And for the rest of the season
these grapes promise to be plentiful
and cheap. In fact the entire out
look for excellent fruit at reasonable
prices was never better in Grand
Dox al dc

A GUARANTEE
FOR THE FUTURE

The president points out numerous
reasons for supporting the Republican
party and continuing it in power.
In every instance he pleads for a
continuance of the well known
policies of the party. They have
worked well and should not be
changed. Candidate and party are
in accord. The candidate can there
fore speak authoritatively for the
party, and does SO. He speaks
strongly, but conservativelY. His
statements as to past and present
policies are in the best spirit and
form.
AS to the future, who can tell what
new issues will arise? This much is
sure. With Roosevelt as president,
the future will be met in the same
hopeful, confident, courageous spirit
that has characterized the actions of
the party in the past. The past and
present are guarantorS of the future.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Everything indicates that the
business season which opened Septem-
Der l, will be the best the country has
had Tor several years. While the
wheat and rye crops are below last
years figures the large yield of corn
and barley. according to the govern
ment report, will more than make up
for the wheat and rye shortage. Corn
is the country's imperial crop. While
the value of the aggregate wheat
yield on the farm on December /,
1908. was placed at s433. 600, 900 by the
department of agriculture, that of
corn at the same date was put by the
same authority at s952. 1000, 900. The
outlook therefore, for the good corn
crop is very encouraging to the
country.
Taking corn, wheat and oats at the
present prices and the governments
estimate of crops, the value of the
yield of these three cereals TO the
country in 1904 is 50, 800, ,OOO, 900 as
compared with sl,700, 100000 in 1908.
This is an immense gain. 1t means
much for the farmer, and through
him for all sort of business interests.
The 5000, 0,00O,0 900 extra which the corn,
wheat and oats raisers will get for
this years work, if the present pros
pect is realized, will mean large
in general trade. Mer-
chants and business men generally
will be the gamers,

A MODEL CAMPAIGN

The present national campaign is
probably the shortest on record, and
up till the present time has been the
quietest. Wood county politics is
beginning to warm up. A campaign
of six weeks is an innovation and one
that has undoubtedly come to stay.
The effect of such a short, sharp and
decisive campaign on the business
situation of the country will scarcely
be felt, and things will go on the
even tenor of their way as if nothing
of the ordinary was in progress. 1t
ought not to take more than six
weeks Of effective work to furnish
the people with all the information
necessary to enable them to vote
intelligently upon the issues and
candidates of the several parties, and
this appears to be the idea which
inspires the work of the Republican
national commi5tee. Clearly, the
present campaign is being conducted
along the line of twentieth century
progress ana lntelllgence, a young
mans campaign with new and
vigorous way of doing things.
Chairman Cortelyou has surrounded
himself with bright young men of
today, who know the needs of the
country and who can place their
work to bring about the best results
in the shortest time. The people will
like the new plan of conducting
national campaigns, and will urge it's
permanent adoption as sane and
sensible, and not a serious disturber
OF business as the old, long drawn
out affair, which continued for
several months, and kept the nation
and people in the perpetual turmoil.

Increasing Output.

During the month of August,
1850, 900 pounds OF print paper were
turned out at the Wisconsin River
Paper & Pulp Company's mill. The
amount produced monthly has steadily
increased under Supt. Jack McCor-
kindale's management until now it
has become necessary to speed up the
machinery to keep up with orders.
