About noon of last Saturday John
Rantella and John Ikola attempted to
cross the Payette river at Long Ivaley

were obliged to swim. Ikola crossed
in safety, but Rantella's horse went
under at the first plunge into the
stream ana when he came up 1t was
without his rider. Some hours later
the body was found n short distance
below the ford. Rantella was 10 years

ALASKA WANTS HOME RULE.
Mining and School Interests Need II
Badly.

Vancouver, r. c., Nov. 2S.-The
people of Alaska are about to take
steps to secure a territorial form of
government. 1t is not intended to de-
mand local self-government for all
township and county organizations. as
Is done in older settled communities.
but simply to be empowered as Amer
lean citizens, to legislate for them
selves. In their efforts for this local
self-government. the people of Alas
ka are expecting the aid of the state of
washington, particularly of the city
of Seattle, the gateway TO Alaska,
which the trade of the north has done
so much to build up. Thomas Gale of
Fairbanks, Alaska, mineowner. chosen
by the people of northern Alaska to
represent them in congress. is the
prime mover in the affair."
Mr.. Gale points out that the mining
laws of Alaska are patterned after
those of the United States, but are n
mere skeleton not fitted for local
needs. On the skeleton provided the
mining states have built up a body of
laws that suit the conditions of the
respective states but this has been
denied Alaska. The present lack of
railway communication is very bad.
while the provisions lor schools away
From incorporated towns is meager
and unsatisfactory as people in many
places have to educate their own
children after paying their revenue
to the government.

WAS NEPHEW TO
FATHER OF MILWAUKEE,
AGED Wood County Citizen Who
Died Last Week was Related
to Solomon juneau.

ElzeOr Tefault, who died at his nome
in the town of Rudolph, last Wednes.
day evening at the advanced age of 70
years, was direct relative OF Solomon
juneau, the founder of Milwaukee,
spoken Of by inhabitants of the Cream
City, as its Father. Mr. Tefault's
death was due to heart disease, com
bined with other troubles that
brought about the end after short
illness,
Mr.. TIE 'ault would have been Il years
old in March. and came here from
Canada, the land of his birth, more
than sixty years ago. He married
Mrs. Della Juneau, who was the widow
|of Thomas Juneau. son of the
Father" Of Milwaukee. No children
were born to them. The three chill
dren of Mrs. Tefault were present at
the funeral of their step-father, as
vas his sister, Mrs. c. Crotteau, and
his widow.
Mr.. Tefault was one of the best
known men in the farming part of the
county. The funeral, held at 10
O'Clock Saturday, Rev. Father Van
Sever officiating was largely attended
by his many friends. Among those
who were at his funeral were many of
the relatives of Solomon juneau, the
founder of Milwaukee.

INSPECTION HERE

Guy T. Gould, first assistant of the
First Assistant Postmaster General at
Washington ID. G. of the Salary and
Allowance Division, was here Friday
and made an inspection of the Grand
Rapids post office. He was highly
pleased with the Office building and
ordered few changes in the interior
arrangement of the post Office. The
postmaster will have private office
in the front part of the building, by
the erection of partition from the
right side Of the large plate glass win
dow IN front of the money order win
dow, giving the postmaster's room an
outside entrance as well as one into
lobby and wOrkroom. What was
known as the 'Centralia fixtures were
removed, as the free delivery service
does away with the necessity of hav-
ing so many lock and call boxes, Mr..
Gould said that Grand Rapids now
has a better post office than many
other cities of larger population in Wis

WISCONSIN HAS
MANY RAILROADS

In looking over the otherwise unin-
Struc0ive copies of the Congressional
Record. we note one table of facts as
CLEANED from the last census, that
brings Wisconsin up into prominence
as railway state. The fact that
Grand Rapids is located on four of the
principal railways that helped make
the big figure, makes the statistic in
tereSting to our readers.
What we referred to was a list OF
figures given by Representative Bird
sail of Iowa, in bringing up the Hep
born railroad rate bill last Wednesday.
In this statement he gave list of the
states in the union, with the amount
of taxes each one received from rail-
ways. The highest amount was
received in PennSylyania,-S5 ,072, 900.
Wisconsin came tenth in the list,
with S1,925, ,427. Though we have not
been considered much of a railroad
state, this figure will tend to change
chat impression hereafter.

WILL HAVE
WONDERFUL PLANT

The Grand RaEids Foundry com.
pany will have a wonderful plant,
well fitted to do the work of such an
institution, and it will be completed
and ready for use in about a month,
if the present plans do not meet any
i'll fate. The construction of the two
buildings is complete, al that re-
mains, being to install The machinery.
We visited the site of the new
buildings Sunday, and were impressed
with the stability and Solidness of
them. and their being absolutely ire.
proof. They are this latter because
the elements of wood has not entered
into their construction.
The two electric cranes that are to
be new feature To this company IS
plant have been installed, and are now
being put into service TO adjust the
different parts of the machinery which
is being put into place. These electric
cranes are wonderful piece of ma
cbinery, and will prove very handy
features. They are capable of lifting
ten tons and their movements can be
directed TO within a fraction of an
inch of where the operator wishes the
different parts to 20.
The cranes run rom one end of the
buildings to the other, and are moved
entirely by electric power, controlled
by man who rides upon the crane.
Sunday, TO show how accurately and
surely the movements of the crane
could be controlled, the crane man
asked US to name simple word and
he would spell it in the sand with the
large hook that depended from the
crane. We suggested "Man is Small",
and the operator slowly spelled the
sentence out without a mistake or
oaik. Other evidences of the absolute
control over the machine were given,
leaving the witnesses 10 believe that
when the machinery is installed,
Tie foundry will be very handily
equipped.
