WHY NOT BETTER SERVICE
Connection Between Ladysmith and
Twin Cities Wretchedly Slow.

Who can answer the question, why
we should not have better railway SER
vice with the Twin cities? Let us IL
lustrate. We order goods, say on Mon
day morning The 1:18 train consumes
all the day getting to the Twin Cities,
stopping for freight and killing time
that belongs to the business public.
The order is filed Tuesday morning
and must lie there until Wednesday
morning before starting 1t comes to
the end of the first division and takes
another rest, reaching Ladysmith
Thursday morning provided there is
no missing link at the division point,
which is too common, in which event it
arrives Friday.
Now what might be the situation?
With any kind of speed the day train
could reach the Twin Cities by $3.50 or
400 at the latest, leaving time for fill
ing the order Monday. 1t could come
to the division point on the through
freight Monday night and arrive at
Ladysmith Tuesday morning on the way
freight.
Why not? Why should we not have
the service ordinarily granted by the
railways Of the country? Why take
the better part Of week to secure an
order of goods from a point scarcely
more than a hundred miles away?
The News believes in fairness. There
was time when such improved service
could hardly be expected, but conditions
have changed in the last five years
while the service is the same. We are
entitled to something better.

CHINA QUITS BOYCOTT
Secretary Taft and Party Get on the
Right Side of Things and
Produce Results.

Hong Kong, Sept. 5. Secretary Taft
and his party spent yesterday in Can
ton, returning to Hong Kong late last
night.
At Canton the members of the party
were met by battalion of the viceroy's
guard. After reception at the CON
sulate the party became guests Of the
new Canton railway, covering its entire
district. At l O'Clock the visitors were
entertained at luncheon by invitation of
the viceroy, who, however was i'll and
unable to be present.
His representative made a speech re-
ferring to the friendly relations between
the Chinese nation and America. Sec
retary Taft in his speech said tina by
direction of the president he was
pleased to note the friendly relation of
the two countries.
The United States did not want one
foot or one acre of the soil of China,
the secretary said, and he thought the
boycott of American goods was an un-
reasonable violation of treaty rights and
conditions between the two countries.
He declared that he was glad the viceroy
had ordered the boycott stopped.
The party trip to Canton has had an
immediate effect and it is believed that
within two weeks the boycott will end.
The viceroy on Monday gave notice that
the boycott was to be declared off.
Old residents of Canton say that they
believe the agitators are using the boy
colt as an excuse for demonstration
against all foreigners. During their
stay in Canton few members of the
Taft party visited the old city. They
made many purchases and were treated
with great respect, there being no
evidence of i'll feeling.

R. A. AUSTIN A FARMER
Starts the Opening of Farm Near
Bruce.


r. A. Austin of the Austin Land
company of Bruce has crew of men
at work clearing land and says that he
intends to continue the work indefinite
ly.
He will fence several hundred acres
and stock it next season.
This year Mr.. Austin broke some
land, some Of which he planted to early
dent corn with such results that he is
having picture taken to show people
what Rusk county can do in corn when
land is subdued, and showing beyond
question that in the future corn will be
raised in Rusk county to advantage. 1t
has been shown by repeated tests that
northern corn is far more nutritious
than that raised farther south-the per-
centage of difference where experiments
have been made making up for differ
ence in yield.
Mr.. Austin is also enthusiastic over
the yield of other crops and proposes
to make use of as we'll as sell land.

REV. SQUlRES LEAVES
After Two Years of Deligent work in
which he ACCOMPLISHED Much.

After Two Years Of Deligent work in
which he Accomplished Much.
Rev. L. E. Squires, who during the
past two years has had charge of the
NJ. E. church interests at Lady5nith
Bruce and Weyerhaeuser, will remove
to some other point, such place as may
be assigned at the Madison conference
next week
Rev. Squires has been a most active
worker within the lines of his duties
and has accomplished an immense sue
cess. He done the work Of two men,
as is shown by the fact that it is in
tended now to divide the field and give
to two the work heretofore done by
him alone. But that doesn't cover the
case, for Mr.. Squires had done the
pioneer work, that of organizing and
building up. He has not only advanced
the interests Of his church from a
material stand point at every point IN
the matter of building and improve
IncIJ, puj IlC lids ilhSNioC DulAC uo IIlS
church organization by instilling his
own zeal and energy into the minds of
his charges. Over 100 new members
have been added during his pastorage.
Mr.. Squires has done more than re-
ligious work-he has set an example of
activity and Capitalization of purpose
that has influenced everyone with whom
he has come into contact. Such lives
have a varied usefulness and an effect
that cannot but work for good. The
News is glad of the opportunity to
notice such merit wherever it is to be
found, and to impress it upon the minds
of its readers. For more than religious
reasons the communities he has served
will regret to say farewell to Rev.
Squires.

RAILROAD CLAIMS LAND
Question of Title to be Determined
by the Courts.

During the past week the 500 rail
way company has served notice upon
the occupants of the half block occupied
by the East hotel and others to vacate
the lots occupied by them.
These lots have come to the present
owners by warranty deeds which hold
the conveyors for all damages sustained
in case the railway company's title
proves good.
It is understood that the original
warrantors claim that the previous title
given to the railroad company was in
tended to coverthe south half of the
block. while the record makes it cover
the north half.
The point was raised by the railway
company some time ago and afterward
dropped. What the result of the new
demand to vocate will be remains to be
determined by the courts after the con-
test which is promised.

THE new COUNTY JAIL
Promises to Be a Pleasant and Sub
stantial Building.

Promises to Be a Pleasant and Sub
stantial Building.
The new county jail, while not large
or pretention, promises to be a con-
venient and pleasant structure.
The ground floor will contain three
pleasant rooms for the sheriff S family,
the sheriff's office on the west side, and
in the rear a Jail room equipped wi tn
four cells of approved make and style.
The second floor will furnish chamber
room for the sheriff's family, cell for
female prisoners and in the rear room
for four additional cells which may be
added as the needs of the county may
demand.
The plans indicate that the building
will have an agreeable appearance,
giving the impression of substantial
construction without the wierdness
often seen in Jail buildings.
The jail will be warmed by a steam
plant located in the basement and
equipped with all modern conveniences.

CAPTURED A LIVE BEAR
Taken Alive BY the Strategem of
Railway Workman South
Of the City.

Report comes from railway camp
about II or IA miles south of the city
that big black bear has been caps
tured by the men at one of the camps
there.
This bear had been coming to the
camp for his food pretty regularly
in the night for long time. Later
he decided to come in the day time
when he would carry off anything
that might be in sight. The men con-
ceived the idea of an attempt at cap
ture and proceeded to build a crib
with self-closing door. This scheme
worked like charm and the bear was
made a prisoner. Mr.. Bruin however
didn't like the idea and proceeded to
gnaw his way out which he was not
long in doing. But when he had made
his way through the hole his teeth
had made, the bear was surprised to
find himself still imprisoned in a cell
of logs that in the meantime had been
built around the first structure.
This building was too much for the
bear and the game was up.
The captors sent to Milwaukee for
an iron cage and men to come after the
animal to be given to a museum there.
1t is reported that the captured bear
is one Of the largest ever seen in north
ern Wisconsin, weighing over 400
mounds

misunderstanding of Game Laws.

Deputy Game Warden COB" Stone
says that there is general misunder-
standing regarding certain portions of
the game laws as enacted by the last
legislature. The prairie chicken sea-
son opens Sept. and continues to Oct.
1, while grouse may be hunted from
Sept. l to Dec. l. These dates Mr..
Stone also called attention to the part
of the game laws which provides that
all parties trapping fur bearing animals
protected by the state must secure a
license.
1t may save good deal of trouble for
prospective hunters if they will care
fully look up the law on these points,
as the past legislature made numerous
changes both as to the game protected
by the state and the seasons during
which they may be killed.
