Since the completion of the new lega-

Imperial City, the United States is as
strongly fortified and as well prepared

Excellent Place of Refuge.
While plans for the invasion of
China, in case such a step should be
necessary. are being worked out by the
War Department the at ny officials are
figuring on the important haven of
refuge that would be afforded by the
American legation. With the compile
ton of the new buildings and barracks.
several hundred persons could easily
be accommodated. and, in extreme en-
ergenCy. the entire American population
of China's capital could find protection
within the walls over which floats the
American flag.

Opens Sunday Morning for Twenty
DAYS.
Hunters are Making Prepar-
ations to Spend Some Time
in the Woods.

After Midnight Saturday it
will be lawful to kill deer in the
state of Wisconsin and a great
many hunters in this county and
elsewhere are making prepare.
tons to spend part of the time
in the woods in pursuit of the
fleet footed deer. Already 1850
licenses have been issued by the
county clerk and before Sunday
many more will have been taken
out. It can be figured that the
majority Of the holders OF these
spend some time in the woods
during the twenty days of open
season. A mum Der of non-resi.
dent hunters from the larger
cities have also applied for a IL
cense to hunt deer in this coun-
ty.
The deer are quite plentiful
this year and it is expected that
the slaughter will be as grert as
in any previous year. Hunters
and others that go into the
woods should remember that
they are not alone and be very
careful in which direction they
aim their bullets in order to de.
crease the number of deaths and
injuries resulting from careless
ness. 1t would be a good idea
for those going into the woods to
don some bright color SO that
you can be easily detected from
a deer as there are always some
who are quick to fire at anything
moving in the brush. At any
rate be careful.

who bolted the republican caucus when
United States Senator McCumber was

county was more foxy. He covered
up his political tracks until he saw
that the political coast was clear and
that il was too late to give him "A
whirl at the primary. Then he came
out in bitter opposition to the more
than two-toone sentiment OF the re-

their vote at the primary election;
then strongly opposed the county's
delegation at the state convention,
and then at the recent election helped

Wants . Scrap.

Batcaye Bill, having recovered from
his last attack Of delirium tremens,
and having begged back after his re-
cent strike, launches out last week
in an apparent effort to seek another
scrap with the Record. He tells his
readers what q good republican is Mr..
Macdonald, Of Glencoe, who was first
sent to the legislature IN place Of
true-blue republican by the Horton
Herholz. Rocks Patterson combination
Of democrats and republicans who
voted with the democrats in organiz-
ing the senate: who, with one other
alleged republican senator, out Of
total republican legislative member
ship of one hundred and thirty three,
bolted the republican caucus that
elected Senator McCumber. and who
didhis level best to aid in the recent
defeat Of Governor Sarles, and who
with Mr.. Herholz both Of them re-
publican candidates stood in with
Democratic Candidate Rocks in &C.
complishing the defeat of republican
Candidate Britts for clerk of district
court by inviting Rocks into Burr Oak
with his Misrepresentation regarding
. number Ut republican candidates.
Batcave Bill Is all Of sudden very
considerable Ut the tender feelings Of
the Glencoe double-dealer. But it
wasn't many moons ago that the Glen
coe chap was denouncing Bill s boss as
1.-THE biggest CRATER that ever struck
Bismarck and only two years ago, as
state senator, heading protest of the
legislative delegation against the ap-
pointment Of said boss as game war
den. Batcave Bill need have no
fear that, when the proper time comes,
the members Of the Paterson Rocks
Herllolz- Macdonald combina tion, that
think they have such foxy deal OH
for two years from now, will get all
that is coming to them, as far as the
Record is concerned. One thing "
certain: The taxpayers Of this county
will know more after awhile than they
do now uf the Northern Pacific tax

deal, by which Emmons county gave
up lands worth thousands Of dollars :

title, and which. II It had been kept.

which Messrs. Patterson and Herholz
were the chief workers.
