TELEPHONE RATES
INCREASED

The Wood County Telephone Com
pany through its directors has served
circular notices upon telephone users
that commencing on Feb. 1, 1905, the
rates Will be as follows: Business
telephones with stock, $3.50: without
stock, $500; residence telephones with
stock, Sl.00; without stock, $3.50
This raise in rate will have tend
ancy to check tie growth of the ex-
change and perhaps reduce the present
number during the year Whether
it is good policy to raise the rates at
this time is wholly one of judgement
and possibly the present condition of
the company requires this step. AS
far as we are personally concerned we
have no objection. but We know that
there are many users that will feel
that the extra raise will be much and
probably discontinue their phone.
The constant increase 10 the exchange
has kept the surplus going into the
extension of lines, phones. repairs,
etc, and the debt has remained the
same, perhaps the directors are wise
in deciding to increase the rates and
wipe out the debt. At least we hope
so.

CORPSE In COFFIN
COMES TO LIFE
Woman's Keen Eyes Saves a
Texas Merchant from Being
Buried Alive.

JEFFERSON, Ten, Jan. Nathan
f. Chidester, a Jefferson business
man, was attacked with serious
illness two days ago and died, accord
ing to the attending physician. An
undertaken prepared the body for
burial, it was wept over by the family
and yesterday afternoon the funeral
services were held at the ChideSter
home. A clergyman delivered a
powerful" sermon, at the close of
which those present were invited to
take last look at the dead.
A relative of ChideSter'S noticed,
when she looked at the face, that the
lips were moist, With a cry she de-
clared that the man was alive. A
hurried Investigation was made and
it was discovered that he was breath
ing. Physicians were quickly sum-
moned and ChideSter was removed
from the coffin. In short time he
had regained consciousness and was
sitting up in bed.
He is now able to walk about the
house, and if no setback occurs, he
will be out attending to business in a
few days. The coffin was taken back
to the undertaker'S shop
Chdester has not been told of the
narrow escape from being buried
alive. 1t is feared that the shock
might be too great for him to bear in
his present conditions

corporations in Wisconsin making
paper the governor says, have entered
into an illegal compact for the purpose
of controlling the manufacture, sale
and prices of paper. He recommends
legislation forfeitiHg the characters
of these corporations and other
legislative relief.
Upon re-aSSembling today, both
houses went to work with a will.
Bills in great numbers will be
introduced. Some of them will find
life in law but the great majority will
go to fill up the flies. Said a member
today: 'It is not SO important to
get new laws as it is to see that bad
measures are not passed" Many a
member will do his state great good
by remembering this advice.

will be made at this session for a new
state house.
The northern part of the state is Sc
much interested in getting more anG
better country roads, that an effort
will be made at this session for amend
mentS to the existing laws lin regard
To highways. A change in the
manner of diSburSing the road tax is
favored and other measures will be
proposed. The North Wisconsin
Farmers Association. an organization
of over two thousand farmers in the
counties bordering upon Lake Super
iOr. is leading in the movement.
This section of the state will also ask
for some provision for experiments
with the soils of its section, and there
is a strong feeling in favor of an
experimental farm in that region.
The reports of the several state
officers, just issued, TEEN with i'm
porIant facts as to the several
departments. Those of an educa-
tional character are probably the
most interesting. State Superinten-
dent Of Public Instruction Carey, in
addition to presenting the statistics
for two years in his department, dis
cuSSeS number of subjects looking
to the betterment Of the schools. In
the $500 school districts in the state
he says that it is estimated that, ow-
ing to conditions that should be
corrected, S1,600,000 is expended
annually for teachers wages, fuel and
janitOr service from which the people
of the state derive no direct benefit"
He also says that there should be
''better educational facilities for the
farmer of today" Consolidation of
districts, he thinks is the remedy,
and he presents many arguments on
both sides of this question.
The report of the president of the
State university shows that this
institution is not only in a f1ourishing
condition but that its growth de-
mandS more assistance from the
state. This is especially true of the
school of agriculture. Illustrations
of the practical and beneficial work
that the school is doing for the state
are presented The needs of the
university are also set forth in the
governors message.
In very strong language, Gov. La
Toilette shows the evils that the
newspapers and the public generally
are suffering under the paper trust, a
combine in our own state. Twenty

ANOTHER FORGERY

Scott Payne. an employee in the
South CentraIia Pulp & Paper Com
pany lost his pay check amOunting to
So recently in this city ana it was
found by d lady on the west side,
whose name We shall not mention in
tbs article Ii appears that as soon
As Mr.. Payne lost his check, he
notified the company and they in
turn notified the Wood County
National Bank people, who watched
for the check and stopped payment
thereon.
a few days thereafter, assistant
cashier, d. b. PhiIIeo, whose expert
cnced eye is constantly on the lookout
for depredationS Of this kind was
somewhat off his guard when a we'll
dressed and modest appearing woman
presented this check for payment. 1t
had been endorsed and i'm cyeryway
had the appearance Of proper check.
Mr.. PhiIleO immediately asked the
party where She got the check, and
She admitted that she found it. He
asked her, who wrote the name on
the back Of the check? She answered,
she asked her daughter TO do so. "
lie then asked her, ''if she did not
know it was wrong to do such d thing
and she said, that she intended to
get the money, keep out $500 for the
trouble OF finding the check and then
return the balance" ID other words
She was going TO pay herself u reward
Of $500 for finding the check.
1t is certainly becoming necessary
for the severe prosecution Of such
otfenSes, as there appears to be more
and more Of these crimes committed.
it appears that from this wOman'S
action and her explanation that
apparently there is no OfTPnSe in the
endorsing OF check and forging
another persons name to it. She
appeared to think it trivial and of
not very much Importance. Whether
she will be arrested or not is a matter
that rests with the bank officials.

CAN CORRUPT OFFICIALS
BE CONVICTED?

Under the present system OF
criminal procedure it seems to be
practically impossible to secure the
conviction and punishment Of men
guilty of crimes against munic.
ipality. AS in Minneapolis, SO in
New York, Buffalo, st. Louis,
Pittsburg, Memphis. Detroit, Phil
adelphia, and every other city,
accordingly TO our recollection, where
malfeasance and official corruption
have been brought To light. The
story has been the same in each
shocking disclosures, confession
revelation, prosecutions, indictments,
and then jury diSagreementS, appeals
to higher courts, delays of years, and
tinally-nothing. Thus, after all the
fuss and furOr of the LeXOW inyeStiga-
CATION and other startling exposures
of criminality in different depart
mentS of the municipal government
of New York in various years. with a
vast array of discriminating evidence
against many individuals, no munic-
ipal official since the days of Tweed
has actually suffered punishment for
robbing, defrauding, or otherwise
betraying the trust imposed upon
him by the people OF New York.
Many indicted men were never tried:
other cases were dismissed after d
long delay, and few police officials
who were convicted and sentenced
had their sentences set aside on appeal
to higher courts and were reinstated
and the reward of promotion iu
several instances, Such as that of
Devery, formerly chief of police. And
the crusade against the corrupt ring
in st. Louis, led by Mr.. Folk, has had
no better results, SO far as the action
of the criminal courts is concerned
The ring was broken up and the city
freed from their control, but the
cOnSpiraturS have suffered no legal
penalties for their shameless crimes.
In spite of confessions and all the
array OF indubitable evidence Of crime,
lawyers, jurors, and courts have
intervened with The usual delays,
appeals, and re-trials, and every
scOundrel in the pack goes scot free
with all his ill-gotten gains,

CONTRIBUTED
To the Subscriber Who Conn
mented on the Sleighride of
Jan. 6, 1905.

We, members Of the sleighride
party, wish to say that the subscriber
who spoke i'll of our good times is
getting little too personal. If that
person would criticiSe sleigh rides and
parties as whole we would have
nothing to say; but when it comes to
one person. we don't think it right.
We have looked into the matter and
found that the young lady mentioned
had plenty of company home. A
young couple accompanied her besides
the gentleman who took her to the
sleigh ride, and Measure you he was
a gentleman.
We failed to see her cry whe n
"thrown upon the mercy of a boy" :"
She certainly expected him to take
her home when she accepted him as
her escort.
We will add that it is safer to 90
home at l2:00 p. m. then at 900
because the Dirty Dozen" is not out
at midnight.

1HE SLElGH hide PARTY.
We desire TO encourage our
subscribers to contribute articles for
the public good as long as the
spirit II anifeSted in the article is
neither personal or offensive. The
article contributed for Tuesdays issue
was undoubtly prompted by good
motives, but their reference to the
sleigh ride was somewhat personal
and consequently has brought forth a
reply, which appears in this issue.
An honest discussion of public matters
is promOtiye of good and we desire to
encourage this disposition. All we
ask is that contributors sign their
articles, so that we may have a
knowledge as TO the author, as we will
positively refuse articles whose author
is not known to the publisher. Not
that we would publish their name
signed to the article, but simply for
our information as to the author of
said articles
