FOREST FIRES RAGING
Eagle River Surrounded by
Fires But No Damage Done
Except to Standing Timber.

The forest fire situation around
Eagle River this morning is now
we'll in hand ard unless fresh
fires are opened by high winds
no further damageis anticipated
Yesterday the situation was
alarming A pail of densesmoke
hung over the village almost OBJ

being received from three differ
ent directions that fires were
moving at rapid rate owing to
the high wind which prevailed.
Late in the afternoon a call for
help was sent in from the Everett
farm at the Catfish bridge, the
fire being near the Hansen place.
iii the evening a call was made
from the Otter rapids dam and a
crew of men was sent out who
labored all night and correlled
the fire at the red bridge. A few
telephone poles were burned but
the transmission line was saved
by hard work. THIS fire came
from near Columbus and Gather
inc lakes where it has been burn
ing for a week. Another big FIRE
southwest of Eagle River is
headed this way and is'estimated
to be about fifteen miles away.
For the past week fires have
been sweeping a section between
Pickerel and Boot lakes but no
damage except to standing tim
Der has resulted.
The Price homestead situated
on Long lake was saved last
night by men who went to Clear
water on the limited. 1t required
quick work as the fire was with
in a few rods Of the buildings
when the men arrived.
Telephone communication be-
tween this place and Rhinelauder
was cut off yesterday, and that
CITY is fighting fires outside its
limits.
A great many Of the fires have
been started by settlers burning
brush and hunters and campers
who do not exercise care and

ing a fire suit in the woods.
If the ptolongeI dry spell is
not soon broken the situation
which at present is extremely
dangerous will multiply fourfold
and loss to life and property Will
result.

To Remove Stunps Easily.

Larry Nolan, one of the leading
farmers in the town of Newbold,
has invented process for pulling
stumps which promises to be oil
untold value to the farmers OF
the country. His method which
has already attracted widespread
attention, is as follows:
With a two-inch auger bore g
hole perpendicularly into the
stump about two feet. Pour
into this hole one pint of a mix
ture Of equal parts Of nilric and
sulplluric acids, Then plug the
hole tightly with plug dipped
in melted parafne, In thirty
days time stumps SO treated
will be a charred, pulpv mass,
roots and all, and may bespread
over the soil as a fertilizer with
a shovel,
Mr.. Nolan has just stumped
sixteen acres of land on his New
bold farm in this manner, at a
cost of four cents cash and five
minutes labor per stump. The
John R. Davis Lumber Co. at
Phillips has adopted Mr.. Nolan's
process in clearing several hun
dred acres ofland in Price county

Amour jumped upon theprostrate
Indian with his knees, inHicting
injuries sufficient to cause almost
immediate death. The fight was
witnessed by number at Flam-
beau.
Amour, the one who did the
deed, is twenty-one years old,
and, in his civilized garb does

He has received a good educa-

Make the Best of 1t.

1t is now settled fact that this
locality will have but very light
crop Of corn. The spring was so
wet that corn got poor start and
then just at the time corn must have
rain, the rains ceased.
Good rains yet, may help it out
considerable, but we cannot have a
full crop under the most favorable
conditions.
Everybody must figure according
ly and make the most out Of con-
ditions as we find them.
We have seen them much worse
when the people were much less
able to stand it. Now it is not a
question of being able to live but
simply question of more or less
profit. We of the present time know
nothing of hard times.
We have enjoyed great prosperity
and have formed habit of extrava-
CANT living. We may find it con
venient to cut off some OF the
luxuries during the winter but we will
come through in the spring vigorous
and enthusiastic for the work in
hand,
We note that some are inclined to
have the blues. 1t is little trying
on the nerves to work hard all sum.
mer expecting a crop and see ex-
pectations blighted, but such is life.
We're it all sunshine and success,
| what kind of creatures would We
become. We would soon become
so proud and arrogant that we
would scarcely recognize one ano ther
on the street.
We would even forget our God
aud revert to heathenism. 1t is the
trials and misfortunes of life that
develop true manhood and woman
hood.
Great wealth and uninterrupted
success dwarfs instead of develops
the best faculties of man.
Cheer up then, and consider this
title shortage of crop not. as a
calamity but just one of the little
incidents of life.
The pleasant autumn will soon be
here and the boys will be around
making campaign music by the yard,
free of cost. The winter will follow
when rabbits will be cheap.
Then will come the glorious in
vigoratlng Kansas spring with Its
balmy daps anj ample showers and
we will all START in anew, full of hope
and coura-e and faith in the future.

the Commoner, who do not get over
"a hundred dollars per month for
their services. Mr.. Bryan it appears
gets about $500 month whether he
is there attending to business or
not. To be real consistent William
ought to mark down his wages about
500 per montb and then dock him
self for the time he is absent.
We have noticed, generally speak
ing, that most men take about all
for their services that they can get
regardless of whether the work is
hard or easy. William has made a
large fortune just by telling people
who listen to him that they are aot
getting their share but we have not
seen any indication that he proposed
to quit taking more than his share.
