Jeffreys at a hearing In Erie Wednes-

ance with an order secured by Chanute
citizens, appeared before the court to
show why his permit should not be
cancelled. This annulment Of q permit
to sell intoxicants is the first on record
in Neosho county, and will practically
put Kendall out Of business. Since

there has been a move on foot at Cha

liquor dealing. Kendall's permit was

Startling But True

People the world over were Mortified
on learning of the burning of a Chicago
theater in which nearly six hundred
people lost their lives, yet more than
five times this number o. over 5000
people died from pneumonia in Chicago
during the same year, with scarcely a
passing notice. Every one of these
cases of pneumonia resulted from a
cold and could have been prevented by
the timely use of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. A great many who had every
reason to fear pneumonia have warded
it off by the prompt use of this remedy.

IT WOULD BENEFIT ALL.

If there is one thing more than another
that would benefit Stevens Point at the
present time, it would be an extension
of the st, Paul railroad to and through
this city. The rumor that gained some
credence at one time, was that the St.
Paul and Wisconsin Central roads
would be placed under one manage
ment and that the valley division traffic
would be diverted to the Wisconsin
Central at junction City, and through
trains run from Merrill, Wausau and
other points north, through Stevens
Point to Portage over the Portage
branch of the Central, thus shortening
the line, instead of going around by
New Lisbon. This rumor seems to be
rather vague, however, and if either the
St. Paul or Northwestern is not soon
built up along the Wisconsin river
valley, passing through Stevens Point,
thence to Knowlton, Mosinee, w ausau
and Merrill, it will not be many seasons
before an electric road will connect all
of these towns, including Grand Rapids
to the south. Electric roads that are
already built in this and other states
are proving to be paying investments
and there is certainly an excellent open
ing in the Wisconsin river valley
Stevens Point Gazette.

SH0RTH0RN CATTLE SALE.

M. H. Duncan attended the annual
meeting of the Wisconsin Shorthorn
Breeders association held at Madison
last week and succeeded in having
Wausau designated as the place for
holding the annual sale of the associa-
ton this year. The date set is Thurs
day, June 1st.
This sale is the largest of any con-
Quoted in the state and usually attracts
buyers from all surrounding states and
as far east as New York and west to
California There will no doubt be
several hundred buyers in attendance
and the prices offered are usually
higher than at other sales.
The cattle offered are also the best of
Wisconsins herds. After the sale has
been advertised those who desire to
place cattle in the sale notify the proper
officials, after which an inspector,
usually the chairman of the sales
committee, goes around and views
the herds and passes upon the different
head that the owner wishes to enter.
In this way only first class stock is
offered. Usually nearly every Short
horn breeder in the state has one or
more head for sale so that buyers have
several hundred head to pick from
Of course as yet il is too early to say
what arrangements will be made in the
way of entertaining those who come
here at that time, but it is safe tc say
that it will be done in the regular Wau-
sau way, which is synonymous of liber-
ality. They will be well fed and taken
care of while in town and it is quite
likely that program of speeches will
be in order.
1t is sale which means something to
the county and the local committees
which will be appointed ought to re-
ceive all possible encouragement.
1t will be the first time that this sale
has ever been conducted outside the
city of Madison and due credit should
be given Mr.. Duncan for getting it
here

FIGURES FOR COMPARISON.

A bill is before the legislature which
if passed will abolish the county board
system and place the business of
counties in the hands of a commission
to be elected by the people These
commissions will be composed of from
three to five members, according TO the
size of the counties in which they reside
and the amount of business to perform
The supporters of the bill, OF which
there are many, argue in behalf of it
that under the new system greet saw
ing would result to each county in more
ways than one, that more could be ac-
complished and better results obtained.
For instance in county like Marathon,
where fifty-eight towns, wards and vii
lagos are represented at each meeting,
each supervisor drawing $500 per day
for several days at each session, with
several hundred dollars of mileage
tackled on, besides commit ae work, and
several sessions held during the year,
the cost at the end of the year amounts
to nice sum. They say that if the
business is put in the hands of COM
mission of good, responsible men more
satisfactory work can be accomplished
at far less cost.
Upon request from Madison, Co. Clerk
John King last week compiled figures
for the expense of meetings in this
county in the past, which figures are to
be used in the legislature for making
comparisons.
However, with all the apparent good
features advanced for it by its support
ers it is hardly likely that the bill will
be passed, for nearly every county
board in the state has passed resolu-
tions in disfavor of the plan, which
have been mailed to their senator and
assemblymen, and it is not likely that
the majority can consistently ignore
them.
