Seven Town COunCilmen and Marshal Elected.
Herofd, FeidIer. Marsh. OyertOn. Noon, Van MOurick. Wat. kinS and COughlin..-Seyenty. three Straight Tickets.

When the polls opened Monday y morning with all the working for ces of the Democratic Ticket and the Non-Partisan Ticket liaed up ready and anxious for the war of ballots, 1t was evident that nothing but an earthquake or the tail of Halley's comet. could prevent the election of the entire Democratic ticket by a safe majority. How ever, nothing is sure in this old world except death and taxation, as it was shown when the votes were counted that two candidates on the Non Partisan Ticket c. NJ. Rathbun, City Clerk, and c. l.. Fowler, superintendent of streets had passed through the fire safely.
 Between the hours of eight in the morning and six o'clock in the evening Captain Chenoweth, of the Non Partisan Ticket, and Captain Kingsley of the Democratic hosts, were constantly on the move directing their forces, and the good natured fight was kept up until every voter in Nogales had cast his ballot.
 When the ballots were counted it was found that 229 votes had been cast, of which there were seventy-three straight Democrat tickets, and forty-one straight Non- Partisan tickets.
 As will be seen by the results below, the entire Democratic ticket was elected, with the exception of the town clerk and superintendent streets, and for the next two years the affairs of the town of Nogales will be conducted by cap able, successful business men. who will work for the betterment of of every interest and the upbuild- ing of the gateway to the great sta te of Sonora.

LOOK OUT FOR THEM.

Dishonest tree agents are plentiful
in this state according toreports from
Secretary Cranefield of the State
horticultural society. Agents claim
ing to represent Illinois and Ohio
firms are selling varieties of cherry
trees unsuited TO Wisconsin climate
at eXhorbitant prices. One farmer is
reported as buying 1000 trees at 81
each and Others large numbers at 50
to 65 cents each and buyer agrees i'm
addition TO give half the first crop.
Reliable nurserymen in Wisconsin
and elsewhere sell better kinds at 30
cents each. Barnum stated a great
truth when he said people liked TO be
humbugged. Both the Horticultural
society and the Agricultural college
constantly offer free advice on such
subjects.

TO REBUILD MILL.

Two weeks ago the PILOT mentioned
the change made in the Brooks g.
Ross Lumber Co., John Ross buying
the interest of his partner, E. W.
Brooks. Since that deal was made
Mr.. Ross has decided to rebuild the
mill destroyed in Schoield during the
early summer. He has caused plans
to be drawn, or rather they are being
drawn, and crew of men is at work
clearing the old site. When all the
old burned debris has been carted
away, work will commence on the
foundation walls for mill and boiler
house. The work will be pushed
through to early completion, and it is
likely that saving will begin shortly
after the holidays. 1t takes only
about sixty days now to build first
class mill. The new mill perhaps
may not be quite as large as the one
destroyed, but improved machinery
will give it as great capacity.
When the mill burned the company
had timber holdings sufficient to keep
a mill in operation for ten or more
years. The company at that time
also had considerable quantity of
logs cut. The hardwood was hauled
to the mill of John Manser in Kelly
and sawed there.
While the company gave out no in
formation following the fire regard
its future plans, the general supposi-
tion was that it would see fit to re-
build in Schofeld. Several improve
ments made in the village by the
company since the fire pointed toward
this.
1t is likely that the firm name will
be changed now that E. w. Brooks is
out of the firm, though we have not
been given authority to say so.
Crews will be started in the woods
soon, to cut supply of logs to feed
the new mill when it is put in opera
tion.

FEHL-LEMKE.

Tony Fehl and Miss Adelia Lemke
appeared in the court house late Satur-
day afternoon, were granted license
to wed, secured a dispensation from
the court, and were married by Judge
Warren, all in the space of few
minutes. Though they had attempted
to keep the matter secret, number
of their friends got onto the fact that
they contemplated the step and
gathered at the rear door of the court
house to give them a reception, such
as young folks usually conceive. The
young couple saw what was coming
and made their escape by the front
exit, and got into an automobile and
drove away.
The young man is the youngest son
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Fehl, and is en-
gagged with his father in the bicycle
and automobile repair shop on Wash
ington street.
The young lady is the daughter of
the late Herman Lemke, and for
several months has been bookkeeper
in the John Fehl & Sons store.
Both have numerous friends who
wish them a well rounded measure of
happiness.

GREAT SCHEME.

Frank Mathie has solved a problem
which is of interest to all bird hunt
ers. The solution was made while he
was up north fishing last week, and
the problem was, "How to get birds,
without resorting to fire arms ?''
Frank and several others were fishing
in Horsehead lake, using worms for
bait. Deciding to try their luck in
Hungry lake, and not caring to tote
their poles through the woods, they
threw them down on the messy bank
of the lake and left them. After
fishing for several hours in Hungry
lake, they returned to their fishing
place, and on their approach found a
partridge futtering about in the hazel
brush and apparently trying to escape
from something. Closer observation
showed that the bird had swallowed
worm and hook and was held fast.
To the man who is not possessed of a
gun this method of getting birds is
an important discovery. Instead of
carrying a heavy gun and lot of
weighty ammunition through the
woods and tiring ones self out, why
not fix set line, bait it, place it on
some feeding ground and then go and
sit for an hour or so and await results?
But the yokels down in Madison who
frame the game laws will soon get
onto the scheme and spoil it.

MEDICINE MEN MEET.

Medicine men, not the kind told OF
in Indian lore, but real white men,
met in goodly number in this city
last Thursday evening. The occasion
was the quarterly meeting of mem
bers of the medical society Of the
Ninth councillor district. The place
of meeting was at the club house.
The following was the program for
the evening, DR.. FL. L. Rosenberg of
this city presiding:

Nearly forty visitors were present
and nearly every local physician was
in attendance. In all, six counties of
the district was represented.
Following the business meeting a
supper was served by the ladies of the
Baptist church, which was not a very
slow affair. While the doctors were
getting away with baked teal, lobster
salad, ETC., an orchestra made
"mooSic."

NOT TO MOVE.

MesSrs. Turk and Johnson of the
Johnson Mfg. Co., have decided not
to remove their plant to Wausau as
has been reported, and are now en-
deavoring to enlist more capital in
the enterprise and if successful will
enlarge the plant and greatly extend
the business. From last years oper.
ationS the promoters of the business
are satisfied it can be made complete
ly successful, and their showing is
such that they will probably be able
to secure large working capital
Marshfield Times.
This is the company which was
lately recognized in this city as the
Wausau Glove and Mitten Co., TAX
ing in Wausau capital. The company
at first intended to rent a building in
Wausau and open a factory.

WOULD SHIP DIRECT.

Direct shipping as means of elm.
mating wastes of distribution by the
farmers Of Wisconsin will consume a
large part of the discussions of the
Wisconsin branch of the American
Society of Equity at its annual con.
vention to be held in Wausau Octo-
Der 25-29. Another important ques.
tion will be that of the proposed re-
moFal of the state headquarters from
Madison to a more northern city
Eau Claire and Wausau are after the
offices.
Secretary NJ. w. Tubbs of the state
branch says there is likely to be in
stalled state agency to sell the var
ious products of the mem bership. A
large proportion of the farmers in the
state now are affiliated with the
Equity society, and the organization
is enjoying an unusually rapid growth.
Since last years meeting the mem
bership has nearly doubled.
The question of establishing an
Equity packing plant and cold stor-
age, will arise, but it is not likely
this project will be launched fol-
another year. In the meantime, the
officers will do all possible to bring to
fruition their plans for establishing
direct shipping and more thorough
organization. The elimination of the
local buyer appears to the Equity
society as one of the greatest agencies
in behalf of economy in production of
farm products.
Credentials already received at the
state headquarters in Madison indi-
cate there will be much larger at
tendance at the Wausau meeting than
last year.

LEAGUE NEETING.

Robt. Hochtritt, representing the
Wausau Base Ball association, at
tended the NV. league meeting held
in Eau Claire last Tuesday. All of
the clubs were represented except
Winona. Very little business was
transacted at this meeting. The 1910
pennant was formally presented to
the Eau Claire team, but the election
OF officers was deferred until the Jan
uary meeting. President John Elliott
desires to resign, but most of the
clubs would like to see him continue.
1t Is possible that sufficient pressure
will be brought to bear before the
January meeting to cause him to re-
main III office.
A rule was adopted providing that
no club shall loan or sell player to
another club, within twenty days of
the close of the season, without the
unanimous approval of all the clubs.
The subject of changing the circuit
or putting teams in the Twin cities
was not mentioned.
Following the meeting the Eau
Claire officials dined their visitors and
the lest of feeling was manifested.

ORIGIN OF EXPRESSION.

| Editor Pilot
A year or more ago "23 for yours"
was very common expression, and
even today it is frequently heard
Many stories have been told and many
theories advanced as to how and
when the expression originated, but
all are of doubtful character. While
sitting in my home one evening re-
Gently, perusing an old worm-eaten
! book-a very old work. came across
what / believe to be the correct ori-
gin of the expression, and will set it
forth for the benefit of the PILoT's
readers.
When our old friend Noah saved
the country by building the ark, he
fitted it with twenty-four staterooms
on the top deck, for the use of himself,
his wifeand Shem, Ham and Japhet and
their wives if they had any. 1t SO hap
pened that stateroom % was situated
right over the wheel house and next
to the department occupied by what
at the present time we call mules,
though we believe they should have
stuck to their original name. This
stateroom was Stunned like a pest
Hence by everybody on board, and
old Noah was wise enough to put it
to good use. When any of the boys
got rambunctious and fshed over the
rail for mackerel and cod, instead Of
attending to their duties of watering
the stock, Noah would put the cul-
prit in irons and say "23 for yours" 5"
The offender would then be put in
stateroom %, and the Yale lock
sprung. With the vibrations of the
bunk, caused by the paddle wheel,
and the braying of the mules, rest or
peace in % was out of the question,
and it was not long before the i'm
prisoned one would promise TO be good,
and beg to be released. Thus when
Noah appeared on the bridge and
yelled "23'' it had significant mean
ing. Subsequently Noah corrupted
the expression and changed it to
"Skidoo' or "Get gone" and this in
depreciation has been crystallized in
to our English as she is written, rot
ten and spoken.
Yours truly,
WILLETT WORK.

SCARLET FEVER.

On Thursday last, William Gamble
was stricken with scarlet fever. The
case so far is a very light one and I'M
less complications set in he will have
very little trouble. William is hav-
ing more than his share of sickness
this year. A few months ago his
left hand was very badly injured by
the explosion of dynamite cap, and
just as he had about recovered from
this, he was taken down with scarlet
fever. His many friends hope for an
early recovery.
