Murder.

morning in extraordinary ses-
sion for the purpose of trying
John Specht for the murder of

ant are determined to put up the
best fight there is in them. Dis.
trict Attorney Alvord will have

ONE twenty or twenty-five wit

give testimony. Mr.. Alvord has
also had a Pinkerton detective
looking up testimony, the de-
tective has been spending sever
al weeks in the county Jail with

Is Much Higher This Year Than
Last.
Apportionment is Made to
the Towns and a Large
Increase is Shown.

The apportionment of the
state and county tax has been
sent out this week from the
County Clerks office and a
marked increase is noted over
that of last year. This is due
largely to the increase in the
state tax, this county being
compelled to pay more than
double that paid last year. M ost
of the towns will have to pay IN
to the County Treasury more
than they did a year ago. There
is also a reason for this. The
county has built a number of
roads and bridges during the
past year. the cost of these
which amounts to $4,000 was in
cluded in the levy and must be
put on the tax rolls for this year.
So also is the item of $9,659.34
which is a three fourths mill tax
for road purposes under the
new law. This is also on the
levy and will have to go on the
tax rolls the present year. This
brings the total county and state
tax to be raised by all the towns
in the county up to $97, 485. As.
The city of Washburn will have
to pay almost two thousand dol
lars more this year than was
paid last. The total amount
this year is $13, ,o72. Sc while last
year it was $11,528.08. The
largest increase is noted in the
town of Drummond, last year
this town paid a tax of $11, 1,197.-
63 and this year $18,O86.99 will
have to be paid. The town of
Mason pays the largest state
and county tax of any town in
the county, viz. Sic, ,803.94. The
following Is the apportionment

Winter Work Started

The numerous lum bermen
operating camps throughout
northern Wisconsin have about
completed their summer logging
and many are now busily en-
gagged in getting ready for their
winters work in the woods.
The past summer has been a
very prosperous one for the
lum bermen operating camps and
mills and millions of feet of tim
Der has been cut and sawed.
Perhaps the largest concern
operating in the county is the
Edward Hines Lum ber company
who have operated several camps
and run the mills at Mason and
Iron River. The companies
operating at and near Bayfield,
have also gotten out consider
able tim Der and three mills were
kept in operation at Bayfield,.
The Thompson mill in this city
has had a steady run, and the
Jacobs company have sawed
considerable lumber.
Now that the saving season is
just about over the lum bermen
are turing their attention to-
wards their winter work and
they will not cut as
much timber as they did year
ago, the amount of work done |
will be something great. Al
ready several camps are in
operation near Bayfield, and on
the islands and more are ex-
pected to start. in the course of
a few weeks. The Hines com
pany have decided not to carry
on any woods work to speak of
near Iron River this winter.

While speaking of the work of the

have children OF their own, do not go
