CHAS. EKELUND CHOICE
OF PARTY FOR SHERIFF

Chas. G.. Ekelund Republican candi-
date for the Office of Sheriff at the
September primaries, was in the city
Saturday and reports that he has re-
ceived very cordial encouragement
throughout the county. While he
has not been able to see all his old
time friends; he has seen as many as
it has been possible for him to meet,
and they have all promised not only
to vote for him but to urge his friends
to attend the primaries for that pur-
pose. He says that there is general
feeling throughout the county, that
the town OF Sigel, one of the largest
townships in the county, should have
recognition The Republicans of that
town have chosen him as their candl-
date. They ask their friends through
out the county, who know his fitness
and qualifications for the office, to
support him at the primaries.
Mr. Ekelund has always been in
identified with his party, is recognized
as an efficient and devoted worker,
and has been sacrificed twice when
the county was Democratic, and his
friends now feel that this is an oppor-
tunity to snake good.' They there
fore urge upon his friends throughout
the county to put themselves out by
attending tie primaries and casting
vote for his nomination. Bear this
in mind and don't neglect it.

For some years past the Wisconsin
State Fair which will be held this
year in Milwaukee Sept. 10 to IA has

character and the interesting variety
OF its poultry and pigeon show. This

again be under the supervision OF Mrs.
AIDA F. Howie, will eclipse all former
great efforts, judging from She extent
OF inquiries and the applications re-
ceiyed for space in the great poultry

such vast quantities that they control
their own factories, produce their own
brands and bring cigars direct from
factory to smoker at prices closer to
the actual cost OF production than
has ever been known.
By delivering cigars from the pro-
ducer to smoker the National Cigar
Stands Company eliminates from
their cigar four profits that ordinarily
go TO middlemen and jobhers. This
saving is given to the smoker Ia the
form of lower prices on equal cigars
OF in better values for the same price
By producing in enormous quanti-
ties, eliminating the jobber's profits
and selling direct, with little expense
for rent and no expense for extra
clerk hire, it is not surprising that
National Cigar Stands are able to give
TO smokers cigars OF the usual 3-for-25C
quality for sc. ten-cent cigars at &C.,.
and so on. up to the very finest class Of
Imported Hayanas.

r. E. Andrews, of Marshfield, candi
date for District Attorney of WOOD
county, is a young man of excellent
character we'll prepared for the Office
he seeks. He don't want it under
stood that he is MarShtield candi.
date for the Cffice, but as a faithful
worker for the Republican party dur
ing his residence here, he asks the
Republicans of Wood county for their
suffrage because of his record in the
county, and his fitness for the office.
He has become candidate for the
office on account of mutual under
standing two years ago, by representa-
tive members of his party who pro-
missed him their support at this time.
The only offices he has held are those of
Justice of the Peace, and Municipal
Judge in the city of Marshfeld. He
has filled both of these Offices with
credit TO himself and his party. Those
who know him best claim that he is the
oCoO dudiiuCu CduuluduS IOl UiiC OlIiCt
that he seeks. Grand Rapids has had
the office two terms in succession, and
now in fairness to the locality he feels
that Marshtield is entitled TO this
nomination.
While Mr.. Andrews is not well
acquainted in this part of Wood
County those who do know him,
think very highly of him. He asks
for careful consideration of his qualifi.
cations and fitness for the office, and
hopes that his friends in the south
half of Wood County will commend
him to their neighbors and friends
Ii nominated and elected he promises
TO fulfill the duties of the Office to the
best of his ability. The Marshfield
News in it's last issue has the follow.
ing item about Mr.. Andrews candidacy;
FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY
The candidacy of r. E. Andrews fol
district attorney is meeting with favor
in ali parts of the county. Wherever
he goes he makes a good impression.
The people feel that they can safely
rely on his integrity as a county officer,
Mr.. Andrews is the only candidate on
the ticket from this end of the county
and for this reason and the fact that
he is certain to make an excellent
prosecuting attOrney he ShOuld receive
handsome endorsement. The recent
withdrawal of Louis A. Bauman OF
Grand Rapids from the contest and
asking that his support be given Mr.
Jetfery of the same city, was brought
about to defeat Mr.. Andrews. The
voters of Wood county will make ne
mistake on primary day by giving Mr.
Andrews this loyal support.

NEW HAND CANCELLING
MACHINE

Postmaster A. L. Fontaine sent in
an application to Washington about
thirty days ago asking the depart
ment to supply the Grand Rapids post
office with hand cancelling machine.
After making the application he wrote
the Hon. w. e. Brown of Rhinelander,
informing him of the application he
had made, and asking him to take the
matter up with the department iE
favor of granting the application. Mr..
Brown did so and our application was
granted, and the machine arrived here
Sunday morning and is now in opera
tion at the poStoffice. The Post
master and the whole force appreciate
the invoice of this latest machine, to
aid in the prompt dispatch of the in
coming and outgoing mail.
In this connection and at this time
we desire to express our appreciation
of the prompt and efficient service
Congressman Brown has always
rendered US since Wood County was
added to his territory, or what is
known as the Tenth Congressional
District. Since the placing of Wood
County in Tenth District, the post
office at Grand Rapids has grown from
third to a second class office. 1t has
also increased from three to fourteen
helpers, and the receipts of the office
have more than doubled itself. The
consolidation of the Grand Rapids and
Centralia postOffice was aided and
abetted under the favorable auspices
of congressman Brown. He also
asked for the Rural Carrier service in
this county from which this Office re-
ceived six carriers. He also asked for
and aided US in getting the free
delivery service, with four carriers
and two substitutes, so that at the
present time we have besides the
Postmaster and his assistant, two
clerks, four city carriers and two sub
StituteS; six rural carriers and six
substitutes, and Une recelptS or bne
office have grown during Mr.. Browns
administration from about 81 900 to
over S12, 900 per year.
AS Postmaster in Grand Rapids we
desire to express our sincere thanks to
Congressman Brown for being ever
ready to aid and assist US in obtaining
the improvements and advantages
that the business of this office was
Justly entitled too. He has never re-
fused any favor that has been asked
by the people of Grand Rapids by
petition or through US as Postmaster.
1t will be long time before this Con-
greSSional district is represented by a
more faithful or more efficient Con-
gresham than the Hon. W. E. Brown.

Mill STARTS
WILL PETITION FOR POSTOFFICE
Machinery for the Smlth-Stanley Mill
at Green Point Nearly All
In Place.

Active operations have begun at the
new mill of the Stanley Smith Lum-
Der Co. at Green Point. Nearly all of
the machinery is now in place and
1t is being adjusted, the belts stretch,
cd, the new journals on the machines
worn smooth, and they are about
ready TO f1lI orders.
The new mill Is so feet wide and 25O
feet long, and was erected without re-
gard to expense in getting the best
machinery on the market and build
ing a mill that was substantial and a
time saver in all its departments. The
capacity Of the mill is about $50, ,0OU
feet per day, and with 4-hour shift,
which will be put on part of the time,
capable Of turning out 800, 900 feet of
lumber per day.
This lumber will all be flumed down
to the Ruthton pl ner, distance OF
about eleven miles, and from an ele.
vation In the mountains of $500 feet
above sea level. This cheap water
transportation, in addition to the
time saving machinery with which the
mill is equipped, will enable the com.
pany to compete in any market, and
Is of peculiar benefit to Hood River
valley, that this fact insures perma
nent industry for the employment Of
labor.
Between two and three hundred meI
will be employed by the company il
all its departments, and this will make
sufficient town to warrant them pc

have In contemplation. No more
healthful place for town could b,
