bition, not previously manifested; but
this was another Utopian dream from
winch we have been suddenly awaken
ed. Instead Of Improvement she has

No White Servants,
There is scarcely such a person TO
be found in southern towns and cit
les as native. white servant. Those
who are compelled TO work prefer en-
ployment in the factory or shop at
half the wages paid domestic help
even though the duties are less oner-
Gus and the pay better. But the for
elgner, notably the German girl, is
sometimes found here as a domestic,
and wherever she works she is well
paid and well treated. If enough of
the poorly-paid shop girls of the
crowded cities of the North could be
induced in numbers TO come South
and accept domestic service, a class
would thereby be formed which would
afford them the means of social
pleasure, recreation and companion
ship they do not have when they come
here alone. And further, it would
enable them to form small communi-
ties among themselves which more tho.
anything else, would prevent discon-
tent and loneliness.
There is no doubt about finding
ready employment, and that, too at
good wages. For the Southern house
keeper is all too willing to try any
thing or any plan looking to relief
from the worry and uncertainty of
negro help. II is an honorable, hon
est, self respecting occupation and
Infinitely more elevating and benc-
fetal to the individual than that of
the factory or shop, for the refine
mcnt of the home Influence and pro-
lection is thrown around the domes-
tic white servant i'm the South which
cannot, from the very nature of the
calling, be extended to those in the
factory and shop.
Merit Compels Recognition.
While the class distinction between
servant and master is and always will
be observed here as in ali other por-
tions Of the civilized world. the people
as Il whole are democratic and Strnng-
v inclined to reckon a person 5 stand
ing by his true worth rather than by
what he has got, 50 that it is easily
seen how quickly true merit, even in
an humble occupation, readily compels
respect and recognition. The situa-
tion just now as to providing this
domestic help is one of discourage
ment. No plan or effort is being made
to supply the demand for such labor.
1t is one Of drifting and waiting for
something to trun up. But out Of it
eventually must grow an organized
plan, and as suggestion along this
line it would be we'll to give heed and
encouragement to the immigration
movement just now being made, for
it is from these immigrants, after all,
that independence of the negro must
be found.

ANOTHER ADJOURN MENT

When the case brought against M. G.
Degner, proprietors of dance halls,
charged with violating chapter 1913 of
the laws of 1905, was called in court
yesterday morning, the forenoon was
spent in arguing the Interpretation of
the law. Counsel for the defense laid
stress upon the punctuation of that
part of the law reading I" = to be
present at or participate in any ball or
dance held in such saloon, shop or
place, or in the same or an adjoining
building, shop or place, or in any place
where liquors are sold or dispensed, or
any place adjoining the same, under
his license, \ x \ - The defense's con-
struction of the meaning of the law was
that while a dance might be held in the
hall of building in which saloon is
conducted, the hall might not neces-
sarily be controlled by the saloon keep
er's license and that therefore, unless
his license does cover such hall, he is
not guilty of any infraction of Chapter
103 by allowing girls of immature years
in the hall at public dances. The prose-
cution held that if such construction
was to be taken, then the law might as
well be erased from the statute books,
for it would be almost impossible to Sc
cure a conviction in any case. The de-
Tense claimed that the complaints did
not make any specific charges against
the defendants by reason of not stating
that girls had frequented halls covered
by the saloon keepers licenses.
An adjournment was taken to next
Thursday.

OUTLOOK BRIGHT.

Wausau bears one distinction, though
not a very commendable one. 1t is
said to be the largest city in the United
States without line of street railway.
But as the days lengthen out and Wis
ions of balmy spring present them
evidences that we are soon to have a
railway that are growing
more pronounced each day. Of course
in this, as in any large enterprise,
many of the formulative plans must be
kept from the public until such time as
the promoters are ready to begin oper-
atoms, but there is a quiet working of
the parties interested which foretells
that they are serious in the matter.
One of the latest moves was meet
ing held last Saturday when represent
atives of the Wisconsin River Traction
and Power Co. conferred with the Wau-
sau Electric Co. relative to the latter
furnishing power to the former.
OF course the latter company, with
its present equipment, would not
be able to furnish power neces-
sary to operate an extensive sys-
TEN, but would serve as an auxil-
larry. The Wausau Electric Co. by
its officers, agreed to assist the trac-
ton company in any way within the
scope of its power and relying on this
no contract was made for the present.
Wausau parties interested in the street
railway movement own a water power
near Trappe City and at present negoti-
ations are pending for the sale of this
power to a Merrill paper mill concern.
When the Merrill company built its
plant it was to be operated by
electric power furnished by dam con-
structed on Prairie river three miles
distant. But the engineer evidently
did not understand his business for the
electric current thus obtained is in
sufficient to operate the mill. The COM
pany therefore desires the Trappe City
dam site and if it secures it dam will
be built and power transmitted to the
Merrill plant. More definite plans of
the Wisconsin River Traction and
Power Co. cannot be given pending the
negotiations for the purchase of the
Trappe City property. In any event
street railway line is bound to come
sooner or later and just at present pros
poets for early building look rosy.

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

State Supt. Cary inspected the schools
on Friday.
Miss Mae Maginnis, '04, is now post
mistress at Sunnyvale, Cal, forty three
miles south of Frisco She writes an
interesting description of the surround
ing country, especially the fruit indus
try.
The Misses Ella Nutter and Lorinda
Zimmerman, '04, will return to school
as soon as their terms are finished, to
take up algebra and to review other
branches.
Supt. Farrell held meeting in Mos
inee on Saturday. Quite a delegation
of county teachers went down on the
freight at 900 a. m. and returned in the
evening. A program had been ar
ranged by the committee, of whom
Wenzel Pivernetz is chairman. The
meeting was called, to order by Pres.
Lemmer The program opened with
music by the mandolin club of Mosinee.
This was followed by a lecture on
birds familiar in Wisconsin" by Mr.
Wells. Pictures were produced of all
the birds described and in some cases
Mr.. Wells succeeded in producing as
good an imitation of bird notes as Seton
Thompson could have done.
The afternoon session opened with a
talk on the Panama canal by Miss
Bohrer, then followed a paper on arith-
metic by Margaret GLASGOW, of the
River Falls normal school, graduate
of our training school. Prin. Schwalbe
gave many useful suggestions in regard
to experimental agriculture even in so
unpromising a place as rural school
yard. Miss Conley talked about Some
Handicraft for Country Schools" dwell
ing principally upon those which would
train in skill and be practical at the
same time,-working of button-h holes,
darning and patching. President Lem
mer then presented his method of
teaching Spencerian penmanship, in a
very intereresting and vigorous man
ner.
Supt. Farrell outlined briefly the
work which he hoped to accomplish in
the way of meetings in the future.
Songs were then sung by the associa-
ton and the meeting adjourned at 500
p. m. About forty people were in at
tendance including the high school
| girls and one or two residents Of
country districts, who were teachers
some years ago.

DISTlNCTIVELY A CREAM Or
TARTAR BAKING POWDER
MEANS MUCH TO WAUSAU.

a meeting of the Wausau Mems club
will be held in MERGERS hall next Fri
day evening to consider proposition
to clear the timber from fowage lands
along the Wisconsin and Rib rivers
that viii be affected by the building of
a dam at Rothchilds. In case dam is
built at that point in near future, which
seems probable, an artificial lake would
be formed extending up the Wiscon-
sin river to this city and up Rib river
for considerable distance There are
at present quite number of gasoline
launches on the river and there will be
an increasing amber each succeeding
season. The owners of these craft and
all citizens in general are of the opinion
that if we are to have lake, it should
be lake and not a Dismal swamp.
They want the flowage lands cleared OF
trees and it is this subject that will be
considered. To see the effect of
uneleared fiowage lands, one may go to
Sheffield and there witness the unsightly
stumps sticking up out of the water in
the pond. Had lands adjacent to the
Eau Claire river been cleared before
the building of the Brooks & Ross dam,
the people of Schofeld might now have
lake on small scale.
1t is certain that not many years will
pass before some manufacturing con-
Germ will see the value of the Rothchild
water power and will dam it and erect
large manufacturing plant. Itisquite
likely that the present owners will
utilize it themselves at no distant date.
In either event lake of considerable
proportions will be formed.
