MANY CHICKENS.

Fred Levenhagen is one of the most
contented farmers in the county.
Since he sold out his bicycle and auto
mobile business year ago he has
been living quiet life on his farm
north of the city on the river bank.
He has built a new house fitted with
all modern conveniences, such as a
private water system, sewer pipes, etc.
A wide porch extends all around the
house Besides raising farm and
garden truck Fred has this year en-
tered extensively into the chicken
raising business. He had some old
fowls to start with, but by the use of
incubators has Matched out about 500
chicks, and it is quite sight to
watch them all running about in
their enclosures. They are of differ
ent breeds and of different ages. The
venture ought to prove profitable for
Mr.. Leyenhagen is we'll equipped to
care for them and give them the at
tention they require. With eggs at
the price they have been selling at
since last season, he ought TO get
fair revenue off his fowls.

LOOKS BAD.

One of the worst looking sights in
the city is rubbish heap on lot at
the corner of Seventh and Steuben
streets. Some person or persons, evil
IDENTIFY during the absence of the own
er from the city, has dumped wagon
load after wagon load of tin cans,
ashes and other rubbish on this lot,
close up to the street line. The own
er has since made a self-imposed
court, jury and judge of himself by
having erected on the lot sign with
this legend: 1910 fine for dumping
rubbish on this lot" He ought to
locate the guilty parties and make
them jump as high as Gilroy's kite.
Some day some of our people are go
ing to be prosecuted by some of the
surrounding towns for doing this
same kind of work. There is not a
road leading out of Wausau but what
is Uttered up with loads of old tin
cans, etc, which have been hauled
out of the city. The farmers and
town authorities don't like such ac-
lions, and we don's blame them. The
roads are intended for travel, not as
public dumping grounds

THE final adjournment of the legis-
lature took place on Wednesday. 1t
had been five months in session, with
very little to show for it. The mem
beers of the legislature were elected to
pass upon the following important
measures:
Industrial insurance.
Income tax.
Bank deposit insurance.
Good roads.
Water powers.
Life insurance taxation.
Education.
Campaign expenditures.
Nothing was done, but all were left
severely alone About the only thing
our legislature did do that was COM
mendable was to investigate the Law
ish use of money by Senator Stephen
son during the primary and the gen
eral election. Every citizen has the
right to inquire ineo what they sup
pose to be the illegal expenditure OF
money at elections, and the way
things are shaping themselves, rict
men will think several times before
trying to corrupt the voters at any
election.

Saved.

When Senator Aldrich took occasion
to question if Mr.. LaFollette's course
in opposing tariff revision upwards
will meet with the approval OF his
constituents he Jared even worse than
Penrose of Pennsylvania, who sought
to pluck handful of quilts from the
e Wisconsin porcupine. The Rhode
Island statesman invited the retort
that
| say to that senator that l come
from state where by long training
the people demand reasons for what
their representatives do. The senator
saws his vote will not need any de
fence. That is true. He has built
up system in the state of Rhode
, Island under which IL per cent OF che
voting population can control The
election of a United States senator.
He comes from state where IL Is
possible for man to maintain pollt-
ical supremacy and put through iran
chiSiS for 999 years TO public service
corporations. He can vote as he Will.
He does not have to explain. III is
Just as we'll that the senator from
j
this bill through WITHOUT explanation.
He cannot by any Id gislative trick,
arguing amendments after they have
been voted upon, confusing the minds
of senators here who have been exer-
cising some independence, by melting
terror or timidity.
In face of recent events notably
the nomination of Isaac Stephenson
at statewide primary at an expendl-
ture of over 500, 000-it may be ques-
toned if Mr.. LaEollette does not
place too high an estimate upon the
devotion of Wisconsin Republicans to
plain living and high thinking-to
the truth for the truths sake-but
we may be sure that at least, a ma
iority of the voters of this state will
not stand for AldrichiSm when the
issue is clearly drawn. For Stephen
son came far from commanding ma
jority of the voters of WiSconsin-the
most that he could muster was one
seventh of the electors. And many
of the one-seventh were dupes TO the
delusion that he was progressive
rather than having been organized in
the spirit of his bari"
Senator LaFollette is safe, then, in
asserting that he has no reason TO
fear the verdict of the voters of Wis
oonsin upon his course in the senate
in opposing a robber tariff. For Aid
rich and his kind in revising the tariff
upwards have given TO LaFollette an
opportunity far greater than he could
have created for himself in his desper-
ate maneuyering for an issue. They
have thrown TO him life preseryer
and he is riding secure on the crest
of the wave of popular approval

CITY COUNCIL.

A special meeting of the city coun-
Gil was held Friday evening for the.
purpose of considering the question of
what will be done with the Bridge
street bridge The structure was
closed to travel few days previously.
by order of Mayor Lamont. 1t is
considered to be in a very unsafe con-
dition and it is quite apparent that
some move must be taken, either to
repair the old one or to build new
one.
At Friday nights meeting the
mayor presented a communication,
stating the condition of the bridge
1t was constructed about twenty-five
years ago, he said, and for the past
ten years every city administration
had been forced to cause it to be re-,
paired. At present there is nothing
left to repair. 1t has beer suggested
by some people that new bridge be
built further north. Some have sug-
gested that bridge be built from the
end of Wausau Ave. TO an island in
the river and from this island to the
west bank. The city owns the prop
erty on both sides of the river But
this scheme would be unwise in the
fact that during a period of high
water the island is submerged. A
structure at that point would neces-
sarily have to be very high. Mr..
Lamont pointed out that the present
location is not very desirable one,
for the reason the st. Paul Ry tracks
are laid at the east end, while the
| approach at the west end is over a
slab fill and sawdust pile. Another
suggestion was that new bridge be
| built across the falls and that the
falls bridge be moved up the river.
The bridge across the falls is too mar
row for the travel over it, especially
since the street car company's line
was built across it.
There are no available funds Oh
hand to build new bridge and it has
been suggested that in making bond
issue to raise money to build the
Sixth ward school, that a sufficient
amount be added to build bridge.
The tax levy for next year cannot be
burdened with such an amount.
The councilmen offered their views
differences of opinion being expressed
Alderman Rifieman presented reso-
luton providing that new bridge be
built and that bids be advertised fol
at oHce. Before this was voted on il
was amended in such form as to pro-
vide that the mayor appoint com
mittee of three to consider and report
OH the resolution at next Friday even
ing's meeting. In this form it was
carried.
| The council will meet again at the
time stated in the foregoing para
graph, at which applications fol
saloon licenses and other matters will
be heard and considered.

THE Milwaukee Free Press on
Thursday had an editorial about those
who had made records for themselves
during the legislative session, and the
ones mentioned were the most con-
spicious for not having been heard
from at all. Those who had been very
active in the primary Investigations,
were not given even as much as a

SEM-ANNUAL REPORT.
A Summary Of the Half Years Work Of
the Wausau Branch of the Wiscon-
sin Humeue Society.

DEC. 2lst, 1908, TO JUNE 2lst, 1909.
A summary of the half years work
of the society may be briefly given as
follows: 275 complaints have been re-
ceived and as many visits made. Pre-
liminary investigations were made on
IS of the above number of complaints
for the purpose of adjustment, and to
ascertain facts TO indicate whether
they were cases for our society, or
properly belonged 20 some other or
ganization.
As result of such investigation we
found that 80 of the Is cases belonged
to the city's poor department and tAe
remaining number to the health de-
partment and the courts.
OF .eiiie 200 cases which came strict
ly dnder the jurisdiction of the society,
81 Investigations were made in the
interests of little children between
the ages of one and ten years, incor-
rigible and homeless boys and girls,
average age IA, neglected and aban-
doned children of tender years as well
as neglected and dependent old per-
sons. Three families in the country
and five in the city have been visited
on complaint of cruel and inhuman
whipping of their stock, horses, oxen
and mules.
Ten children have been clothed by
the society since January lst. Five
new coats have been given to as many
deserving girls, age between ten and
thirteen years. Fifteen adults have
been furnished with shoes and stock,
ings in this time. Ten babies new
coats were given out at Christmas
time. Bedding has been furnished tc
three families in the country, -alsC
| medicine and treatment.
| Six children and three adults have
been furnished lodgings during the
winter months. Four dependent
children were placed in state public
institutions. Ten placed in Greer
Bay institutions either for adoption
or for temporary homes. Two run
away girls cared for pending DISPOSE
tion of their cases. Four women APP
piled to the society to furnish ,mean'
of support for their children, pending
divorce proceedings.
While these statistics indicate tn,
amount of work done by the society
they take no account of the help giyeI
to parents affecting the welfare o
their children. Great care is takel
by the Wausau society not to breal
up homes. 1t is remedy of necessit,
only. Children are separated from
their relatives only when everything
else has failed to reclaim the child
Where children are cruelty treated b.
those who have them in their power
this society is necessity-it is then
help for the helpless.
Humane mottos: Protect our bird
and their nests. Do not allow you
boys to use air guns or sling shots
Feed your cats plenty of meat durin,

Again we wish to extend our thank
to those who have given us lega
counsel, to the police department ant
magistrates of the city for their uni
torn corteous cooperation and t.
/, the gentlemen of the press who by tn
publicity given certain cases have in
formed the public where to appeal il
behalf of the cruelty treated and neg
