STRAIN is RIGHT.

Assessor c. p. Strain of this coun-
ty, who has just returned from the
assessors meeting in Portland, says
that Oregon should give the state tax
commission a fair trial before passing
any further taxation assessment laws
Let the commission study the needs
of the state Let it have time to COM
needs of the state and the sources of
income. After it has been given a
fair trial, then it will be time to agi-
tate for some thing new.
The Willamette Valley Develop
ment league has suggested r change
in the general assessment and taxation
laws. but it is the work Of men inter-
ested in special subjects and does not
seem to be what is wanted to COM
plete the assessment laws.
The assessors convention conferred
with the state tax commission and the
entire situation was trreshed over.
Now let us have law formulated by
the commission before we take the
one suggested by the development
league. Whatever Is done. more in
come should be secured from the
franchises and hidden sources OF
wealth and less burden should be inn
posed upon the visible property OF
the poor man and middle classes.

TWENTY SHOTS FIRED.
Three Men Stretched Out Dead in Ten,
nessee Feud.

Knoxville, Tenn, June 13.--Three men
met instant death and a fourth was
fatally wounded in a desperate fight
yesterday at Thorn hill, 60 miles north
east of this city. The dead men are
John and Will Holland, brothers; and
viii Bundren. The wounded man is
Clint Wrinkle, negro supposed to be
in the employ Of Bundren. Enmity be-
tween the Holland and Bundren families
grew out of the killing Of Col. John
Grocer by Bruce Bundren, father of the
man killed yesterday, for which crime
the elder Brndren is serving life SEN
tence in the penitentiary. Bundren, ac-
companied by the negro, entered the
blacksmith shop of the Hollands and
after a few words began firing.
Twenty shots were exchanged and
when the smoke had cleared away three
men lay dead on the floor and the
fourth was mortaly wounded. The Hol-
lands used rifles and Bundren and Win
kle used pistols. VIII Holland and
Bundren were married men, aged 35 and
25 respectively, and John Holland was
| 25 and unmarried.

the experience method. as l did, or

ter farmer Of him than l am? This
fact is felt by most of those who have
thought of the matter, as being of
such unQuestionable strength, that
the school will be voted for and provi-
sion made for it's construction,
at the adjourned meeting next spring
whether it costs quite little money
or not, as most persons feel that the
money could be spent in few better
ways than this one, especially as Wood
county is coming to the front just now
in agriculture: since the Wood county
training school has proven itself a
wonderful success and deserves all the
encouragement it can be given: and
since this year is the last one that the
training school was promised room at
the city school building, and new pro-
vision must be made at once for quar-
ters for that school. The question
must now be settled at once. Will the
county board go on record at the ad-
lourned meeting next spring as giving
up the most successful training school
in the state and of giving up the agri-
cultural and domestic economy schools
or not? We think they will go on
record as all far seeing men would,
and vote for the proposition.

WOMAN KILLS DEER

1t appears that though some wo-
men cannot throw a stone with the
least bit of accuracy. some of them
can shoot rifle, and straight enough
to kill game, at that. In proof, wo-
man has killed deer in Wood county
this year, and has taken it home.
The successful hunter in skirts was
Mrs. Judson Hall of Hartlapd.
Mr.. Hall and his wife came up into
Wood county just before the deer sea-
son opened and visited their relatives
near Arpin. On The third day of the
season, Mrs. Hall went out with her
rifle, and after hunting about two
hours, got shot at fair sized buck,
which she brought down in three
shots. Mrs. Hall was very proud of
her prize as she brought him out
morning, and had him ready
for shipment to her home. Mr.. and
Mrs. Hall left for Hartland Wednes-
day.

REPUTATION TOO GOOD
Judge Webb's Good Judgement
Bringing Him Too Much Work.

In respect to convenience there is
such thing as having too good a
reputation for fairness and good judg-
ment. Such reputation is desirable
but it may at times be inconvenient.
For instance, Judge Charles Nj Webb
of this city, judge of the seventh
judicial circuit. So great demand
upon his services il determining the
right in extremely difficult cases has
grown up that he has at last been
compelled to Call halt, and ask that
many Of the suits instituted in other
parts of the state and brought on a
change OF venue to this circuit be
kept away, since he has work enough
as it is.
Within the past year this outside
work has poured in upon the judge in
greater amounts than ever before.
This year has come the long Red
epenning case, the Appleton Wafer
Works case, the famous anti-pass
case: two of these difficult cases out
side of his regular work. Now the
parties concerned wish to bring the
Oils case from Wausau-to him for
decision, and he has been compelled
to ask that halt be called. The
reason for it all is contained in COM
mon statement; ''if l can get Justice
anywhere, | can get it before Judge
Webb. That statement tells and
illustrates the results of years and
years endeavor to establish a reputa-
tion for honesty in opinion; of good
sound judgement, of absolute fairness
and equity.
AS to whether this at length, and
indeed for long time been eStab-
lished, these appeals to Judge Webb to
take their cases from contesting
parties all over the state give strong
answer in the affirmative. The
Judges wide knowledge of the law,
his absolute fairness and equity, and
his sound judgement have brought
him reputation that is now bripg~
ing to him more work than he can
attend to. and he has been compelled
to ask that cases be directed some
where else than to him till he has
more time to attend to them. Grand
Rapids is proud of such citizen.

PARENTS READ THIS

There seems to be a sort Of epidemic
of measles and whoOning cough in the
city just now, and the officials of the
city schools are trying to keep it from
becoming prevalent and from spread
ing. In view of that fact every
physician who is called on a case Of
measles OF whoOping cough, or every
parent who notes that their child has
such disease should comply with the
state law and notify the city health
officer at once of the fact. He will
take steps to keep the disease down,
and sc keep it from being nece ssary to
close the city schools. This should
be attended to at once and not de
layed.

POSTAL LAWS
STRICTLY ENFORCED

The postal department is renewing
the attack against all forms of lottery,
and as result are very strict in re-
gard to every lottery as to its being
published in a newspaper. The law, in
tended at first to cover only the big
money schemes, does, in fact, cover
even card parties, church socials, and
any public or private affair where
prizes are given as result of chance.
This law is to be enforced to the letter,
according to instructions extended
newspapers, both in the state, and all
over the United States.

COUNTY AGRICUL TURAL ANDI
TEACHERS TRAINING SCHOOL

The Wood County Agricultural and
Teachers Training School. This is
the Otficia name of proposed institu-
tiOn for Wood county, if resolution
presented this week to the County
Board Of Supervisors bv a member
from this city, is carried by that
board. The resolution was presented
TO the county board on Thursday and
was referred to a committee for their
opinion on the matter
Would Cost About $4,000.
The school building and fixtures, as
called for in the resolution presented
to the county board, was to be con-
Structed in this city and was to cost
about S25, 900. The resolution Sug-
geSted that the county be bonded to
secure the money necessary for the
buildings construction. the same to
be paid in limited number of years.
The new building would, if built on
the lines suggested by the originator
of the idea be large enough to furnish
ample room to the teachers county
normal training school, to a school of
domestic ecOnCm my, and to another de-
partment that will interest every far
mer in Wood county at Once,-an agri-
cultural school. This last department
is a strong factor in favor Of the new
building, and it should be one strong
enough TO make it's installation a
surety.
E. P Arpin,-A Favorer OF Education.
The resolution was presented to the
county board by Grand Rapids man,
one Of the most prominently inter-
eSted 10 educational matters of the
local business men,-E p. Arpin. Be-
cause of his interest in matters per-
tanning to education and to Oetrering
and furtherng opportunities of young
people, Mr.. Arpin was, at the last
meeting of the board of supervisors of

this county, made president of spe-
cial committee to visit the other agri-
cultural and training schools of the
state and make report on the idea of
installing one in Grand Rapids. On
Thursday, in the report of that COM
miltee to the county board, it was
seen that there had been incorporated
therein a recommendation to the
county to raise S25, 900 for the purpose
of constructing building adequate
for the needs of such an Institution.
After reading his report, Mr.. Arpin
introduced his resolution, which is y
good one, surely.
Will be Decided in the Spring.
The efforts of the instigators of this
good idea were opposed by the Marsh
field contingent, who declared first
that they did not want to saddle this
expense" as they put it, onto their
constituents and then later said that
they had not had the time TO talk the
matter over with their people to see
how they should want the supervisors
to vote on the question. So persist
emily did they maintain these points
that it was seen the question would
not be solved at this meeting of the
board or else an adjourned one, to
come in the spring. So then, as the
matter now stands, II will be decided
at the spring meeting.
Grand Rapids Would Furnish Site.
In this connection with this resolu-
tion, communication from the city
of Grand Rapids was read by County
Clerk George Davis, stating, in sub
stance, that the city had, by an
adopted resolution of the common
council, given and .granted to Wood
county plat of ground six or eight
acres in size as the case demanded,
from the best part of the fair grounds,
the plat to be used for the erection of

In Hands of a Good Committee.


In Hands of Good Committee.
In view of the fact that TO put up
such building would require the ex-
pendlture of quite large sum of
money, a sum too large to be voted up
on without the most careful consdera-
tion, by motion the matter was left to
a committee of representative men,
men who are we'll qualified to give the
matter proper attention. The COM
mittee is made up Of: e. P. Arpin,
president; E. G. Pors of Marshfeld:
George Brown of PittSyille; P. n.
Christensen of Lincoln Town; H.
Forbes of Port Edwards. All these
men are interested in educational
matters, and will give the matter
their best consideration.
Such Building UnquestionabIy Good Thing
There can be no question but that
the school would be the best inStitu-
tiOn that has ever been introduced in
this county. Where similar schools
have been introduced, especially the
training and agricultural departments
they have been found to have more
value to county than even an immi-
grafton bureau. The only question
that staDds in the way of the building
Of a structure for the housing of this
good institution, is that of whether
the cost is too much to put upon the
county at this time. 1t is question
demanding consideration but when the
farming element of Wood county (the
strongest element, by the way, and in
fact the very back bone of the county,
think of the fact that the school will
afford their boy a first class oppor-
tunity to study the scientific prin-
ciples Of farming right here ip his
own county without going to Madison,
and when he thinks he can secure for
bis daughter good school in domestic
economy, subject to which too little
attention is paid in this age, and get
that school in Wood county, the su

But One DECISION Seems Possible.

For this reason, the matter at once
presents itself to those who will deter
mine whether the training, domestic
economy and agricultural schools will
be founded here in Wood county in a
building suitable, in this way: shall l
let nv boy or my neighbours boy take

Best Thing for Farmer Boys.

OF Course the farmers boy can not
get the practical demonstrations and
the full course in agriculture here
as in Madison, and no one expects IT.:
but it is fact that he could in such
an institution gain a knowledge of
scientific agriculture better than years
Of labor on the farm will teach him.
1t is being realized now, that too many
farmers boys are seeking college edu-
cations in an endeavOr to mount the
highest rounds of life's ladder. 1t is a
good idea. but in many cases not a
practical one. Too many lack the
ability to use the higher education,
and their whole life is njured.thereby.
Let more of the farmers boys enter
scientific agriculture, that profession
which gains more honest dollars than
any other, and they will later in life
see that it was unqueStiOnably the
wiser move.
