VILASIS AGOODCOUNTY
Forest County Visitors Make
a Tour of Villas County,
End up in Oneida.

Ed Laird and Alex Black re-
turned Wednesday from a cruise
in the woods of Villas county.
To reporter of this paper Mr..
Laird talked entertainglv of
their trip. From Eagle River
they went westward, crossing
the Wisconsin river on the con-
crete dam built by the city of
Eagle River at I'm expense Of
100000. Part of the power is
used at Eagle River for lighting,
waterworks and power purposes.
A pine slashing extends west
ward for twelve miles to ST. Ger
main lake. This country was
burned over years ago. and some
of it only few weeks ago. In
places there is small growth of
pine. The shores of St. German
and neighboring lakes are well
supplied with summer resorts.
There is an abundance of pike,
bass and muscallonge for the
fisherman. Most of the resorts
have telephone connection with
Plum lake, on the St. Paul rail
road. Northward from st. Ger
main lake to Plum lake, a dis
tance of FIVE miles, the country
was burned over a month ago.
In places there is a fine growth
Of small pine. From Plum lake
to Woodruff Junction very
rough road winds along the
shores of the lakes which dot
the pine slashings. At Woodruff
Oneida county, the cruisers wait
ed four hours for a train. The
business part of the town has
frontage of three blocks along
the yards of the Northwestern
railroad. In these three blocks
there are fourteen saloons. On
this subject MIR. Laird remarked:
"Thev saw that saloons make
business, l didn't notice any saw
mills or factories at Woodruff.
They say that license money
builds sidewalks. Not a foot of
cement sidewalk in Woodruff.
What sidewalk they have is to
narrow to accommodate some of
their citizens. Forest Echo.

NOTES FROM ELECTION
How They Voted in This and
Other Counties at the
Election Just Passed.

Oneida county elected a full set
of Republican officials with the
exception of John ]. Verage,
Democrat, who won out for
register of deeds. Vim. Carr,
over whom the Rhinelandcr Vim
dicator tried to pour hot grease
and beat out Of the office of
county clerk, won by majority
of 25e. Governor Davidson ran
behind the national ticket in the
city of Rhinelander. Minocqua
tumbled into the Democratic
column this year while Woodruff
hung Republican by FIVE votes.
Langlade county's home ticket
was split, five offices electing
Democrats. leaving but three for
the Republicans.
Marathon county went Re-
publican by a small majority,
but the county ticket was split
up between the two parties. The
Social Democrats poiled a strong
vote in Wausau.
Eagle River polled 241 votes.
The Democrats had 81 straight,
the Republicans 81; Social Demo
Gratis II, Prohibition 5. There.
were AZ split Democratic and Ga
split Republican. Lack of or

ranks is the cause of the heavy
Democratic pull.

RETURNS BY TELEPHONE
and Satisfactory Meth
cd For Receiving Election
Returns in Eagle River.

The returns for the general
election were received in Eagle
River over the phone from Rim
elander. and were more complete
and came oftener than haveever
been received here through the
Western Union service.
The Western Union would not
guarantee us a bulletin election
night, although the local opera
tor endeavored to get it. Alex
Higgins and N. A. Colman drove
to khinelander and secured for
us the returns as fast as Rhine
lander got them. These two
gentlemen were stationed in the
Elk's clubrooms in that city and
telephoned direct to us, the re-
turns being received in Amos
Radchfe's office by Miss Ella
Thompson who took them as
they came, in shorthand, and
transcribed them making four
copies each which were distribu-
ted to the places where the crowds
were waiting.
The service, both in quality
and quantity, was far superior
to that ever furnished here by
the Western Union.

latter part of August, according
to law. If they are not the state
