Coal Moving Slowly.

Although the season is quite
well advanced verylittle shipping
has been done from the docks of
the Northwestern Fuel company
in this city but the indications
now are that it will commence
with a rush soon, and that it will
continue late in the fall. The
company docks here are now
filled with coal and as more boats
are expected shipping will have
to be done in order to make
room for the incoming coal.
The business during the year
has given almost steady employ
ment to a large crew of men and
as soon as the shipping once gets
under Roadway the force will
have to be materially increased.
The company will handle more
Goa, at this point this season than
they did a year ago.

Two Years Run.

It is reported here and at
Houghton that the stone quarry
owned by Will and Charles Smith
has two years run ahead of it
in getting out stone and that the
work will begin as soon as the
snow goes off next spring. 1t is
also said that the amount of stone
to be gotten out will be consider
able and that employment will
be given to quite number OF
men. The stone at this quarry
is of a very fine quality and il
would not be at all surprising il
the demand for it would grow
from this time on, and that the
quarries world give employment
to the number of men that ii
used to in former days.

Local Authorities Will see That the
Laws are Enforced.
Children Between Certain
Ages are Compelled to
Attend Some School.

1t is expected that state, coun.
ty and city school authorities will
pay more attention to enforcing
the compulsory school laws this
year than before. Not that this
department has been neglected
to any great extent, but during
the last session of the legislature
a law was passed which puts it
not only up to the parents, out
to the teachers as we'll to see that
these laws are complied with. A
penalty is provided for which
touches the school officers, teach
ers, parents as we'll as the law
officers.
The law is in part as follows:
What the Law Requires.
Chapter 446, Laws of 1907, re-
quires that all children between
the ages of seven and fourteen
years, and fourteen and sixteen
years if not regularly and law
fully employed, excepting those
who are not in proper physical or
mental condition, those who live
more than two miles from the
school house by the nearest
travelled highway, and those who
have completed the eighth grade
In the course of study. must at
tend some public, parochial or
private school, in cities not less
than eight months, Q6O days.,
and in villages and rural districts
not less than six months Q2O
days., in each year; and that all
such children shall be enrolled
within one school month after
the opening of the school term.
AS one citizen who is very
much interested in the public
schools put it the other day.
This law should be rigidly en-
forced this year, not only as a
matter of choice, but of neces-
sity, for the law provides that
school officers, teachers, county
superintendent, sheriff and dis
trict attorney must do their duty
in the enforcement of the law
under penalty of fine of from five
to twenty five dollars for each
such failure or neglect. We are
sure that all who are interested
in the public schools will welcome
the cooperation of the parents
in the enforcement of the law in
a peaceable manner.

BASE BALL SUNDAY
Fast Odanah Team Will be
Here Again. Good Game
Expected.

The base ball fans of the city
will at least see another good
game of base ball here this sea-
son for the Odanah team is COM
ing Sunday to play another game
with the local team. That it will
be an exciting one is putting it
mildly for both teams will be
strengthened with new players.
Two weeks ago the two teams
played and after the Odanah boys
had been handed eight success
sive "goose eggs" they succeed
ed in winning the game. The
local team is waiting to get an
other crack at the bunch and if
they do not win the game it will
not be their fault. Odanah has
one of the best little ball teams
in the northern part of the state
and to win a game from them is
considered quite an honor to the
team doing it. 1t is the honor
that the Washburn bunch is after
and they will probably get it in
next Sundays game.

Rain Tuesday Night Put Forest fires
Out Around Washburn.
Bad Fires Still Raging Across
Bay Near Odanah Reser-
walton.

Although it rained but a short
time Tuesday night, it rained
enough to put the forest fires
out which were raging just back
of the city and the danger from
fires is about over so far as this
city is concerned unless new
ones are kindled. The fires
which were started a week or so
ago have burned almost contin-
uously and on several occasions
some of the farmers on the out
skirts of the city were in danger
of having their buildings and pro
perty burned, All day Tuesday
the winds famed the flames and
the storm at night came as a
great relief to the people who
have been kept busy fighting the
fires.
Over at Odanah on the opposite
side of the bay the fires are still
raging in all their fury, the rain
apparently having missed that
section. The smoke during the
day and the flames at night can
be plainly seen from this side of
the bay. At one time the village
of Odanah was almost surround
ed by fires and large force of
men were kept busy fighting
the flames which at times endan-
gered the little town. A change
of the wind has Tdriven the. fires
away from the place and they
are now running along the short
towards the city of Ashland.

It was a Sight.

A good many of the people OF
the city were present Tuesday
morning to witness thenew baling
machine of E. G. Stevens bale
the large stack of hay owned by
William Olson and located just
back of his barns. There were
fourteen tons of loose hay in the
stack and it took the machine a
little over half day to bale it
up, and Mr.. Stevens says the
machine was not running a bit
fast at that. The machine is of
the Eli make and it is run by a
six horse power gasoline engine.
It takes between five and seven
men to keep it going and carry
the bales away. 1t was recently
purchased by Mr.. Stevens from
the Ungrodt hardware. Mr..
Stevens believes in having up-to-
date machinery upon his farm
for he believes that there is a
good deal of time and money
saved. He is thinking of getting
a new threshing machine provid-
ing that enough farmers in this
vicinity will agl ee to plant small
grains. The putting in of new
farm machinery indicates that
farms in this vicinity are getting
to be Of some size and it will not
be a matter of a long time until
we will be able to boast of this
territory as a great farming COM
munity. When that time does
come the cities in this section
will begin to notice stantial
growth.

Iron River People are Making Exten-
Sive Preparations.
Fair Will be the Best Ever
Held in This County. Peo-
pie Should Attend.

!, In our Iron River department
we print this week, the announce
ment of the Iron River Fair, or
more properly the Bayfield, Coun-
ty Fair, which is to be held at
iron River, September Both and
Oct. 1st and End. Plenty of
funds have been secured for
prizes both for the racing pro-
gram and for premiums on agri-
cultural and stock exhibits.
Many of the best horses in the
circuit have been secured so that
those who like good horse racing
will be amply satisfied. The
people of Iron River are making
great preparations for this fair
and it should be the duty of every
citizen in the county who is inter-
ested in one of Bayfield, County's
institutions to boost for the fair
to be there when it opens and to
stay until it closes. Especially
should the people of this city
help the good work along. 1t
has been an uphill task to keep
this fair business going, to hold
an annual exhibit, and to depend
on the good people of Iron River
only to help it along. Let the
people this year show their ap-
probation of the efforts of Iron
River and hercitizens. There are
a large number of people of this
city who could we'll afford to at
tend the fair at least one day.
The Northern Pacific train will
make it's regular trip on Thurs
day morning, Oct, 1st, giving all
an opportunity to spend a whole
day at the fair, and return via
Ashland in the afternoon.

Two TOWNS DESTROYED.

Rhinelander, Wis. ,-Gagen and
Woodboro were destroyed by forest
fires Monday. The fire started in
the woods in the morning and finally
reached Gagen and Woodboro. The
women and children fought valiant
ly to save their homes, but without
avail.
Gagen has about 400 people and
Woodboro 200 and nearly all are
homeless.
Burned out of their homes the
people began fleeing from the fire,
which grew more dangerous with
each minute. Women carrying
children in their arms and men and
boys with packs on their backs ran
toward Rhinelander, many falling
prostrate in the heat, only to be
helped on by stronger refugees
Nearly all of those burned out at
Gagen reached Rhinelander last
night and are cared for, But few
of the WoodDoro people are here and
it is not known what has become of
all of them.
The fire is fresh one and not a
continuation of the fires which did
so much damage last week.
When the blaze started the wind
was from the west and it was feared
Rhinelander, with its home for 1000
persons was doomed also, but a
change in the direction of the wind
probably has saved the city.
The towns of Gagen and Wood
boro are on the 500 railway. Re-
ports from the refugees who came
to this city say nothing is left OF
Gagen.

To Keep WatermeIons.

Some one has suggested a very
simple method of keeping water
melons fresh for several months and
preventing them from becoming too
ripe. We have not tested it. but
the plan is inexpensive and has some
merit of reason in it, and we would
suggest that it is worth a trial.
The melon should be taken from
the vine as soon as it is fully ripe,
by cutting the stem near the melon.
There should be no bruises nor scars
on the rind. Take piece of ordi-
nary sealing wax, melt it and cover
the cut part of the stem securely and
put the melon away in cool place.
The sealing wax over the stem pre-
vents the air and the germs from
entering and thereby preserves the
melon in its present state, so it is
claimed. -Ex.

Another Object Lesson.

The sale of $4,000 tons of steel
rails to Hartman railroad in Mexi-
CO is reported at $40 a ton. AT
home the price is rigid at SIS. Thus
the home consumer pays 40 per cent.
more for his rails than the foreign
ers.
There is, OF course, no reason for
a tariff on steel rails when they can
be sold abroad so much less than
the home price. This is one of the
cases where the Democratic platform
recommends the removal Of the duty.
The product is controlled by a trust
which exacts more from our home
consumers than is paid by the for
eigners. Give the Americans a
chance. Courier Journal.
