Belu;um Has no Navy.

Belgium is, perhaps the most pros
porous state in Europe. as well as the
most Ghickly settled. The late king s
ueign was at least marked by an enor-
nous advance In wealth and social re-
form. One of the country's special ad-

a navy, while the Belgian army is

THE STORY OF THE PEANUT
SHELLS.

As everyone knows, C. w. Post Of
Battle Creek, Michigan, is not only a
maker Of breakfast foods, but he is a
strong individual who believes that the
trades,unions are menace to the lib
erty of the country.
Believing this, and being a natural
born scrapper for the right, as he
sees 1t, Post, for several years past,
has been engaged in a ceaseless war
fare against "The Labor Trust" as he
likes to call 1t.
Not being able to secure free and
untrammeled expression of his opin-
ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space for this
purpose, just as he is accustomed to
for the telling of his Postum STORY"
and he has thus spent hundreds OF
thousands of dollars in denouncing
trades-unionism.
AS result of Posts activities the
people now know a whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
honeycombed with graft, how they OBJ
struct the development of legitimate
business, curtail labor's output, hold
up manufacturers, graft upon their own
membership, and rob the public. Natu-
rally Post is hated by the trades
unionists, and intensely.
He employs no union labor, SO they
can not call out his men, and he defies
their efforts at boycotting his products.
The latest means of getting" Post is
the widespread publication OF the story
that car which was recently wrecked
In transmission was found to be loaded
with empty peanut shells, which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Creek.
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald of the Chi.
cago Federation Of Labor, who. 1t is
said, stated 1t publicly, as truth.
Post comes back and gives Fitz-
gerald the lie direct. He denounces
Fitzgerald's statement as deliberate
falsehood, an underhanded and coward
ly attempt to injure his business, hav-
ing not the slightest basis in fact. AS
such an effort it must be regarded. 1t
is significant that this statement about
"the peanut shells" is being given wide
newspaper publicity. In the patent
inside" of an eastern country paper 1
find 1t, and the inference naturally Is
that labor-unionites are insidioasly
spreading this lie.
An institution Tor MANI which
will resort to moral intimidation and
to physical force, that will destroy ma
chinery and burn buildings, that will
MAIN and kill if necessary to effect its
ends, naturally would not hesitate to
spread falsehood for the same pnr.
poses.
We admire Post. While we have no
enmity toward labor unions, so long as
they are conducted In an honest, live
and-let-live" kind Of a way, we have had
enough Of the tarred end Of the stick
to sympathize thoroughly with what he
is trying to do. He deserves support
A man like Post can not be killed, even
with lies They are boomerang, every
time. Again, we kno,o. for hasn't this
weapon, every weapon that could be
thought Of, been used tand not simply
by labor unions) to put US out of bush

GOT CIGARS, ETC.

A few fellows who have not made
up their laden mind as to where
they belong in the two flocks of sheep
travelling under the banner of the re-
publican party, a few half-breeds,
some democrats and a bunch of big
guns-the stalwarts-met at Castle
hall Saturday night to listen to the
spoutings of Geo. Hambrecht of Grand
Rapids and Levi Bancroft of Richland
Center. The audience, all told, must
have made the local ring masters feel
like a boy who has sat down on an
ants nest. 1t was small in compari-
son with their past achievements. 1t
was intended as an S. A. Cook and
Hambrecht meeting, and that it was.
The Wisconsin Valley Lumbermen's
associations candidate for congress,
Mr.. Ham and Eggs took the response
bility of wiggling his tongue, and the
effort killed him-so far as being a
.vote-getter in this city. His effort
was about as lifeless as a caterpillar
race. He quoted a few of Abraham
Lincoln's remarks, read lot Of news
paper clippings and doled out lot of
frothy gush which made everybody
sick. He quit just in time to save
the audience from going home.
Everyone was edging around in their
seats as if their buds were infested
with fleas.
Then came Levi, he with the Heb
rev baptismal name, Levi is pretty
fair talker-he got his training in J.
p. courts. His effort that evening
can be best characterized as a sermon.
He dug into the bible and used much
of its words for his sermon. Like old
man Jucklin in Opie Reeds novel, he
knows the good book from "kiver to
kiver." Imam indirect way he threw
the gaff-hook into Bob, but did not
mention his name.
After the show was over with segars
and matches were passed around and
everybody smoked.
We have since been wondering why
Mr.. Bancroft and the lumbermen's
tool came here The only answer we
have arrived at is that oh I!
what's the use.

BASE BALL CHAT.

The Wausau team returned home
yesterday from Rochester after playing
fourteen games around the circuit, OF
which the team won seven, tied one
and lost six. Double headers were
played in Red Wing and Rochester.
One of The swei Uranium games will
have to be played over, for no decision
was reached. 1t resulted in tie and
was called in the tenth inning on
account of darkness. Wausau took
four games from Red Wing.
Beginning with yesterday, fifteen
games will be played at home before
the team takes another swing around
the circuit.
After that the team takes one more
trip and finishes the season by playing
six games at home with La Crosse and
Winona.
There will be three more Sunday
games at home-Aug. 14-21 and Sept.
IL. There should be a good attend
ance on those days especially, for the
team needs the patronage and the
boys play better ball when the crowd
is large.
Eau Claire has sold three of it's
players. Kick, right fielder, Kading,
first baseman, and Callahan, center
fielder. The last mentioned was sold
only a few days ago to the Cincinnati
Reds. He is to report at the end of
the season. Callahan is heading the
league in batting.
A new umpire is refereeing the
present series. He gave good salts
faction yesterday. He has lungs of
leather and calls balls and strikes
without Stutter.
The Eau Claire team has developed
into a quarrelsome bunch among
themselves. The players were wrang-
ling throughout the game yesterday
and it is plainly evident that there is
dissention on the team, which spells
slump.
Frank Newhouse former umpire in
the old WI. league Is this summer
uQmpiring in the Central league.
Only one Wausau pitcher appeared
at the game yesterday in uniform
Fennell. 1t is unnecessary to mack
comments as to the management.
Fennell is certainly the hard luck
pitcher OF the league. He pitches ex-
cellent ball, but few fumbles on the
part of his team mates always loses
the game.

BENEFICIAL RAINS.

The rain showers of last Tuesday
night, Wednesday morning and yes
terday afternoon were of great help
to this particular part of the universe.
The two first mentioned resulted in
squelching many forest fires, and
slowing up the progress of Others
which have since been burning. The
showers appear to have reached more
territory west and north Of Wausau
than east and south of US. Reports
from the northern country are TO the
effect that more showers visited that
country than We had here.
We are informed that the crops
grain and root-look far better north
of us than here. 1t is said that grain
and potatoes in Lincoln and Oneida
counties look well. We are informed
that the potato crop in the great
potato producing counties, Waupaca,
Waushara and Portage, is so light
that for the first time in their history
it will be necessary to ship Murphies
into those counties to supply the
demand.

men of Rhinelander, has purchased
the Vindicator of that city, and pro-
pose to run larger and better paper

are weaklings. No matter how well

pie know they are organs solely to

MORE FIRES.

Forest fires have broken out again
in this locality since the last rains.
The air is laden with smoke and there
is every evidence that there are fires
not far distant from the city. We
learn that large fire has broken out
down In the Dancy country and that
others are consuming valuable tim
Der In the towns Of Elderon and
Franzen. We are informed that a
man near the village Of Edgar set
some brush piles on fire, thinking he
would be safe in doing so, since 1t
rained. A wind sprang up and the
fire began to spread In several direc-
lions. 1t required the efforts of quite
number of the villagers to squelch
the fire.
Up in Iron county seven farmers
were arrested last week for setting
fires to their brush piles and each
was fined 800 and costs.

TO BOON WISCONSIN.

A meeting was held in the club
house last Friday morning at which
many land owners and people inter
ested in the development Of Wiscon-
sin were present. George Girling OF
| Chicago, secretary of the National
Home Seekers association, and A. d.
Campbell, state immigration commits
sioner, were present and made adj
dresses. Besides these there were a
number of others from out OF the
city who attended the meeting.
G. D. Jones, E. A. Dunn and Gus
Heinemann were appointed CON-
mittee to solicit membership for the
Wisconsin Industrial association.
The fee was fixed at one cent per
acre owned by real estate men and a
fat rate of $40 for chose not directly
interested in the sale of land.
Both Messrs Girling and Campbell
gave interesting talks on the resources
of this state.
We have forty million acres of land
lying idle here in northern Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Michigan, enough to
make one million 40-acre farms, which
would provide homes for five million
people.
Wisconsin is now being forced into
the question in spite of herself. 1t
has come to question of keeping the
people in the state here. For some
time people have been leaving the
state to go to the far away places
which are so alluringly advertised,
and instead of gaining farmers, as we
naturally should, we are losing them
This state should be thoroughly adj
yertised. Other states and sections
have spent thousands of dollars where
Wisconsin has spent but few cents
The idea of organizing state associa-
ton to advertise Wisconsin, has been
under consideration for some time
We must show people outside of the
state what Wisconsin really has.
Both Mr.. Campbell and Mr.. Girling
in the course of their remarks showed
the fake methods that are utilized to
bring the public to worthless lands
in Canada and in the west.
In the irrigation belt the govern
ment is spending millions of dollars
to make tillable 100000 acres of
land, one-fifteenth of what is lying
idle in north Wisconsin, Minnesota
and Michigan and which is ready for
cultivation at but small fraction of
the cost of the western lands. And
the worst of it is, says Mr. Campbell,
that the irrigation method has prac-
tically ruined 10000 acres of land
by turning it into alkali swamps
which must now be drained to be of
any value
A meeting of the state association
will be held in Milwaukee next Thurs
day.

SCHOFIELD MILL.

The Brooks & Ross Lumber Co. is
having its pine and hardwood logs
hauled to the mill of John Manser in
Kelly and they are being cut into
lumber in that institution. The
company is dumping some hemlock
into the pond in Schofield. While
the officers of the company are reti-
cent about the matter, enough has
been learned to warrant the asser-
tion that the mill will be rebuilt in
Schofield, but probably not this
year. Most of the single men en-
ployed in the mill have gone else
