CONTEST AT MARSHFIELD
ON GRAVE CHARGES

The municipal election at Marsh
field resulted in the election of &. A.
Upham, running nonpartisan title,
by small majority over John. A.
HOFFMAN for mayor. The council
will remain independent. The non
partisan ticket had the support of the
Conner faction and the campaign was
one of the most heated in the history
of the city. Proceedings for contest
by the defeated candidates was at first
rumored but will not be instituted at
once. The defeated contestants took
the ground that so-called non-
partisan ticket is similar to an indl.
vidual nomination column and ballots
marked with a cross in the circle at
the head Of the column do not vote
the ticket. Straight nonpartisan
tickets were formally protested in
every ward.

GRANDFATHER FALLS TO BE
IMPROVED AND DEVELOPED

We have it upon good authority
that the Merrill Paper Manufacture
ing company who now have a pulp
and paper mill on Prairie river, have
just closed a deal whereby they be-
come the owners of what is known as
the upper Grandfather Falls. The
plans for the dam and power
house are now being drawn by the
firm of Jacobson & DeGuere in this
city. The dam we understand will
develope 5000 horsepower and it will
be used to generate electricity that
will be transported fourteen miles to
this same'company's pulp and paper
mill. The work on this development
will be commenced as soon as the
stage of water in the Wisconsin river
viii permit.
This is one of the most noted and
talked of water powers in this section
of the state and it's development has
been under consideration for many
years. The details of construction
have not as yet been fully decided

Thursday, April II, 1906.

We understand from the action
of the city council at its last ses-
sion that the matter OF railroad
gates will be up for disposition at
the first regular meetings in May.
We understand further that there
is considerable opposition on the
part of the members of the council
toward the installing of the pneu-
matte gates. They appear to ia
vor hagmen instead. The WooD
COUNTY REPORTER has been ad-
vocating the installing Of gates as
the safest device for preventing acct
dents upon any of the important
railroad crossings in this city. We
personally believe that gates are the
safest device for railroad crossings.
We have arrived at the conclusion
from personal investigation and
from the further fact that all large
cities install them upon dangerous
and important crossings. 1t the
people of Grand Rapids, prefer
fagmen upon these crossings in
stead of gates, of course we will be
perfectly satisfied with them. Now
is the time for this matter to be
settled. If you favor the gates as
the safest preventative upon rail
road crossings, indicate your posi-
ton to the two aldermen in your
ward. Every person in the city
should be interested in this sub
ject as it is an important one. Inn
press your representative with
your choice in the matter. Don't
let him express your voice by q
vote that will not be in accordance
with your wishes. Impress upor
him that you either want the flag
men, or that you want the gates
Don't allow him to misrepresent
you upon the council. He is there
to represent the majorities senti'
ment Of his ward. We have done
our duty in agitating this subjec
until the railroad companies have
indicated their willingness to pu
in whatever kind of protection the
common council will indicate. The
matter is now up to the people ant
the common council to act.

HAVE IMMENSE INCOMES.
Germany and Great Britain Have
Been Making Large Invest
ments Abroad,

An interesting comparison between
Great Britain and Germany as invest
ors outside their own boundaries is
mdae by Edgar Speyer, the well-known
London banker, in a letter to the
Statist. Figures supplied to him by
Prof. Arndt, of Frankfort-on-M Main,
show that in recent years Germany
has been making large investments
abroad, and that in a comparatively
short time s7,50O,00O,O0o of German
money has been invested in foreign Sc
curities and industries. Germany
annual income from this enormous in
vestment is between s350,Oo0,00O and
1915 200, 10000. Adding to this the sum
she receives from her shipping commits
sions, insurance and other sources, her
total yearly income from foreign in
vestments is $500,0OO,0O0.
Great Britain's income from similar
sources is S900,000,000, but the differ
ence between the incomes of the two
countries has in recent years been
rapidly narrowing in favor Of Ger
many, because Great Britain has failed
to invest any appreciate amount OF
capital abroad for nearly a decade
Doubtless the rule that prosperous
people usually become more lavish il
| their expenditure will also apply to
Germany" says Mr.. Speyer. 'In fact
| there are already signs that the coun
| try is beginning to consume at home q
larger norton of its growing wealth
eff this tendency" he continues, etc
spend more at home in order to live
| in greater comfort develops in Ger.
many at the same time that Great
| Britain becomes more economical
| Great Britain will again invest abroad
the more largely, and Great Britain's
export trade ard income from her for
eign investments will grow more rap
| idly than Germany's."

High Old Sleeping Place.

After two years dangerous work, a
bedroom has been built on the summit
of Mount Blanc. 1t is attached to the
Jansen observatory, and is meant for
Alpinists who have been overtaken by
a storm on the summit or lost their
way in the SHOWS. A large camp bed
occupies all the floor of the room, and
can hold % persons. The bedroom,
which is the highest in the world, is
also the most expensive, as every stick

porters from Chamonix. During It's
erection it was demolished twice and
