A WORTHY TRIBUTE.


The people of the town OF
Eagle River are worthy of COM
mendation.
The acts of the voter Monday
shows why they should be COM
mended for the confidence ex-
pressed and the push they are
inbued with as regards the pub
lies best interests.
One hundred and hftv-three
good wholesome votes for the
maintenance and continuation
of prosperity within the confines
of the towns boundaries out Of
a total of one hundred and
sixty two cast at the special
election Monday, but expresses
part the willingness with which
they wish to see the town pros
per.
The question voted upon at
MONDAYS election was the
granting OF $50 horse power
free to Klein G Van Nostrand,
who have esta 5lished q plant
IN Eagle River for the purpose of
manufacturing articles out OF
aluminium, tin and other metals.
This power is given the firm for
a period of fifteen years, five
years from date of contract to
determine the amount of
power to be used for the remain
ing ten years
The proposition 'lad been
fairly put before the Voter-a
clear and concise contract-fair
to both the town and the man
agement of the industry. With
this understanding the people,
after weeks of study, gave the
initial industry in Eagle River a
glorious tribute as to the conf
dence they have in them.
1t furthermore expresses true
belief that with push and energy
properly utilized, they-the peo-
pie of the town-can make Eagle
River a desirable place wherein
to reside and also a place to in
duce others to come aud perman-
emily locate.
Every voter, whether he voted
for or against the contract, feels
today that Mondays expression
of confidence will not be betrav-
ed and will mean, by system
attic and we'll directed push in
the right direction hereafter, to
be the harbirger of prosperity in
y we'll developed form.

Actress, Tribute to Garrick.

Mrs. Give was eminent as an act
ress on the London stage before Gar
rick appeared, and, as his blaze of ex-
cellence threw all others into COM
parative insignificance, she never for
gave him, and took every opportunity
of venting her spleen. She was
coarse, rude and violent in her tenn
per, and spared nobody.
One night as Garr:ck was perform
ing King Lear" she stood behind the
scenes to observe him, and, in spite
of the roughness of her nature. was
so deeply affected that she sobbed one
minute and abused him the next, and
at length, overcome by his pathetic
touches, she hurried from the place
with the following extraordinary trib-
ute to the universally of his powers.
On him! I believe he could act a
gridiron."

When She Feels Sunerior

"The only time feel superior to
the men, said an Atchison woman
recently, as she watched the Taft
crowd, lis on occasions of this kind.
The politicians set the men crazy and
they run around with badges on, look
ing wild eyed If one of them is told
to go and get chair and put it ON
the speakers platform, he goes
around with an air as though he had
been appointed minister to the court
of st. James. They stand around
awestruck, looking at some candidate
for a state office, and if a congress-
man takes one by the arm and calls
him by name he positively wriggles
with delight.

The Early Military Band.

A little more than seventy years ago
there was no such thing as brass
band in existence. The very first
band entirely of brass dates, in fact,
no further back than 1885. Prior to
that time even our military music was
produced almost entirely from instru-
ments of wood, and as recently as
1888 full regimental band consisted
of two oboes, two clarionets, two
horns and two basseons.
AS showing the important part play
ed by the sounding brass" in our
bands to-day, it is sufficient to men
ton that in an up-to-date first-class
band Of say forty-two pieces there
there would probably be found from
eighteen to twenty horns, to say moth
ing of saxophones, which are partly
clarionet and partly horn.

A SCOTCH EAGLE.
Bird With Seven-Foot Spread of

Bird With Seven-Foot Spread of
Wings Caught by Railroad Men.
The other afternoon a full grown
golden eagle was captured in Ros-
shire under peculiar circumstances.
Three surfacemen were employed
at section of new portion of the
Highland line when they were at
tracted by the appearance of an eagle
in field three miles from Ardgay.
On being approached the bird offered
a fierce resistance with beak and
talons.
The men threw their Jackets over
it, one holding its head enveloped in
the jacket while the others tied its
legs. The bird was secured alive
without much injury. 1t is seven feet
one inch from tip to tip of wings.
Eagles, it is said, cannot rise from
the ground, owing to their immense
spread of wings and comparatively
short legs. They require pinnacles,
boulders or steep precipices ere they
can soar

Dorothy Saw Nothing Wrong About
Calling the Calf to Dinner.
When Dorothy first saw a COW with
a bell around its neck she thought it
was so funny that nothing could in
duce her to leave the spot. She stood
watching the COW until it slowly walk
ed away. Then, when the bell began
to tinkle, she turned delightedly to
her mother, exclaiming, "Oh, NAMING,
does the cow ring the bell when she
wants the calf to come to supper?"
It was the same little girl who was
crossing the river in a ferryboat when
the wind blew her hat into the river.
When she reached home she told the
news sorrowfully to her mother.
ITS wonder you didn't blow in,
too" said her mother, laughing.

s WASHINGTON LETTER
by John ]. Hannah
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Washington, D. c., April 10. Sena-
tor Bailey introduced an income tax
measure with the statement that he
did not attempt to meet all of the OBJ
jections to such measure laid down in
the decision of the Supreme Court.
Under ordinary circumstances the in
PRODUCTION of such measure would
ttract wide discussion, but the Bailey
bill which provides for straight 3 per
cent tax upon all incomes, while it will
come in for some discussion in the
Senate, is recognized as having but a
slim chance of becoming part of the
revenue features of the tariff measure.
Senator Cummins of Iowa has pre-
pared and introduced on Monday a
graduated income tax beginning with
incomes of 81, 600 to bear a tax of per
cent and gradually increasing the per-
centage until it reaches A per cent. The
Cummins amendment stands some
chance of being enacted into law.
Senator Cummins has been canyassing
the Senate and says that his amend
ment will receive all of the Demo-
cratic votes with the probable excep-
ton of four, while it will also receive
eighteen or twenty Republican votes.
The Senator hopes to enlist the active
support of President Taft for his
amendment. If he does so, he can
probably pass it.

Considerable of an effort has been
made to produce the impression that
Senator LaFollette is fighting the
nomination of Geo. H. Gordan of La
Crosse to be United States District
Attorney for the Western District of
Wisconsin.
This is not the case.
Under the presidential division of
federal patronage in Wisconsin, Sen
ator La Toilette has the naming of the
officials in the Eastern and Senator
Stephenson the naming of the officials
in the Western District of that state.
One has no more to do with the recon-
mendations of the other than he would
with the recommendation of Senator
from another state. This fact must be
kept in mind in consideration of the
attitude of Mr.. LaFollette toward the
| recommendation of Mr.. Gordon.
There was sent to Mr.. LaFollette 6
certified copy of the testimony giver
bv Mr.. Gordon in the Senatorial inves
tigation at Madison. 1t was sent with
the request that the matter be placed
before the President. If such actor
had been taken by responsible resi-
dents of another state with referenc.
to proposed appointment in that state
Mr.. LaFollette and any other Senate
would feel in duty bound to do as re
quested and to present the matter t.
the President.
This is exactly what Senator L;
Toilette did. He presented the Ger
titled copy to the President and wa
specific in his statement that he had n
recommendations to make as to tn
action which the President of anyon
else should take with reference to tn
District Attorneyship for the Wester
District Of Wisconsin. And he OK
