Herald
In an editorial the Herald says:
"The Herald would rejoice to see
some or the wealthy citizens of Merrill
commence to devote part of their
time and attention TO farming and
stock raising. 1t is evident that what
is needed in Lincoln county most, is
improved stock. This costs a good
deal of money-that is it requires
capital TO get started. Besides the
farmers must be educated to the fact
thata thoroughbred is more valuable
than scrub.
"What has given Marathon county
such lead in agriculture and stock
raising, is the fact that many of the
wealthy men of the county are enthus-
iastic farmers and stock raisers. 1t
would afford pleasant recreation, too
and we believe profitable as we'll"

CEMETERY HISTORY.
The origin of our present cemetery
association, as published in the PILOT
OF this date, is as follows:
'"The undersigned, |. E. Thayer,
chairman and w. S. Hobart, secretary
of meeting held in the village of
Wausau, county of Marathon, state
OF Wisconsin,. on the 2Sth day of
September, A. d. 1859, for the pur-
pose OF forming cemetery associa-
tion, do hereby certify that the fol-
lowing named persons to wit:

GREAT WATER POWER.
Grandfather Rapids Capable Of More
Energy Than the kilbourn Power.
Merrill Herald.)

/ tMefrlll Hefald.)
Between Merrill and Tomahawk
are the Grandfather falls, the largest
water power OH the Wisconsin river,
developed or undeyeloped. The large
Kilbourn dam, just completed, will
develop on the average, about II 900
horse power, although during the
spring total of $4,000 horse power,
may be developed. This power is be-
ing transmitted to Milwaukee, where
it will be used for the new street rail-
way steam.
The Grandfather falls, when COM
pletely developed, will under an aver
age head of ninety feet, develop
l9, 200 horse power or about 25,OO0
horse power during the spring of the
year. One third of this power is al
ready developed The remaining two
thirds is owned by che Alexander
Stewart Lumber company and r.. l..
Kraus of Marshfield. The charter
which these men hold, requires that
work on developing this dam, be
STATED by June l, 1910
When developed, the portion now
undeyeloped, will alone exceed the
kilbourn dam in the number of horse
power developed and could easily de-
velop during the wet seasons of the
year, $4,000 horse power. Just what
will be done with this power is not
known, but from recent rumors and
other indications, it is likely that an
interuban line from Merrill to the
head waters of the Wisconsin river, is
contemplated.
This seems also very likely from the
fact, that request was made to the
state legislature at it's last session, to
extend the time in which work be
started upon the development of this
dam, for two additional years. The
legislature took no action upon this
request, but will probably report on
the matter at a special meeting to be
held next year Should the legisla-
ture extend the time for two more
years, work will probably be com
menced on this project within two
years VINE.
Inasmuch as the power could not
all be utilized in an .terurban line
extending from Merrill 70 the head
waters of the Wisconsin river, there
would also be possibility of utilizing
this power for an east and west inter-
urban railway from Antigo to Med
ford, via Merrill.
Such interurban lines could carry
freight as well as passengers and
would most likely connect with the
Wausau Street Railway company's
proposed line from Grand Rapids to
Merrill, with the Grand Rapvs Street
Railway company's line from Nekoo-
sa to Grand Rapids. The Madison
Electric company's line from James
vile to Nekoosa and the Janesyille
and Rockford lines. In this manner,
the line would be almost complete to
Chicago, which is contemplated. The
elimination of this scheme, may take
several years, but there is little doubt
but that it will be carried through.
All northern Wisconsin would be
benefited by such a project, more
particularly Merrill and Wausau,
which cities would receive a better
service and consideration from the
steam railroads in that event.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness. and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness Is caused by am in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
euStachian tube When this tube is infiamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing and when it is entirely closed. deafness is
the result. and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition hearing will be destroyed forever:
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh.
which is nothing but infiamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces
we will give one hundred dollars for any

HOME FROM ALASKA.
Wausau Man Who Has Spent Twelve
Years in That Far Off Country.

Otto W. KickbuSch arrived in the
/ city last Tuesday evening after al
absence of five years, for a visit witt
his mother, Mrs. Ferdinand Kick
busch, POP Forest street. Twelve
years ago Otto went to the Klondikt
region OF Alaska and has spent most
of the time in that country since
His present location is at Fairbanks
which he left last June. On his way
home he stopped at health resort
on the Alaska coast and after his ar
rival in this country he visited the
Alaskan Y ukon-Pacifice exposition and
other places of interest until he got
tired sight seeing, he says. Being
used to the cold of Alaska he finds
the temperature here very oppressive
The past winter was very mild up in
that section, he says, the thermome-
ter registered only about sixty below
on TIE coldest days. On extremely
cold days it is impossible for a human
to travel any distance. The all
| freezes ones breath, SO to speak, and
| and when PERSONS breath leaves his
| mouth there is a cracking sound, re-
sembling that when person throws
a pan of water into the air on cold
day. Garden truck grows faster there
than here and when you dig down a
few feet below a growing crop you
strike frozen ground. In one shaft
he worked in the workmen went
down distance of over seventy feet
through frozen earth. Because OF
there being so much frost in the
ground the drinking water is like ice
water all summer long. Springs of
excellent water is found which never
freeze. The only insect to bother
man is the mosquito, which in its
season is fierce. They breed in the
mossy wales.
The country is not booming at pres
ent, he says, merely holding its own.
Recent accounts OF rich strikes of
gold are more of a myth than real
ity and such stories usually eminate
from the boom towns. The day for
getting rich over night has passed,
Mr.. Kickbusch says While it is true
that some rich mines may yet be
opened the chances are very slim as
compared with twelve or fifteen years
ago.
He says it is very fortunate thing
for that country that there are no
wind storms for such would lay every
forest level. One can pull up the
moss about the base of a tree and the
tree will topple over, it resting on
rocks and being held upright by its
roots being entwined in the moss.
Mr.. Kickbusch sees Dave Parcher
occasionally and in Seattle he met e.
G. Kretlow, Theo. Butler, Jas. Allen,
Henry Mckay and Louis Sandry. The
latter is in charge of a large harness
making establishment in the west.
Living conditions are much better
in Alaska now than they were when
he first went there, and it takes only
about twenty days now to make the
trip to this country, whereas in years
past it was long, wearisome journey.
Mr.. Kickbusch will remain here
about month and will then go to the
Pacific coast where he will spend the
winter and return to Alaska in the
spring.
