Declaring himself much pleas
ed with what the insurgents in
congress had accomplished for
the people, Congressman |. l..
Lenroot returned to his home in
Superior the first of the week.
He talked freely concerning the
work of the session, and whil4
scoring the tactics of the reg

that he spoke. He is there to
spend short time resting, pre-
paratory to going out on a lecture
tour in this state and Minnesota,
returning to Wisconsin about

campaign.

Joke was OF Them

AS soon as it was learned that
Washburn was to celebrate the
Fourth of July IN ronsing style
this year and after the funds
we're solicited, the com mittee in
charge of the celebration thought
that it would be great to have
something out of the ordinary
for the day and consequently it
was suggested that it might be-
a wise idea to get some man here
with flying machine to give a
flying exhibition. The commit
tee thought that it would pay to
spend the greater part OF the
funds for such an attraction, and
knowing that there was num-
Der of "bird men" at Minneapo
lis at the time the matter was at
once taken up with Fred T.
Yates. The com mittee tele-
phoned to Mr.. Yates and he was
just as enthusiastic as the rest.
and promised that he would do
all in his power to secure the
flying machine. He dropped
everything and went over to st.
Paul to locate some one to send
to Washburn. Imagine his dis
appointment when he learned
that the cheapest of the "bird
men" had already been engaged
to make a fight on the 4th, re-
ceiving $4,000 for the day. The
com mittee here had instructed
Yates to wire Immediately and
they almost fell over when they
learned that this amount had
been paid for a fight with the
flying machine. However they
were game and promise to have
air ships and balloons for the
day.

were given by ALL This settles
question that has long worried
the progressive republicans Of
this district. Mr.. Knight has
been repeatedly urged to permit
the use OF his name as candi-
date for Assembly. but has al
ways refused. Not only is he
the ideal candidate for this office
on account of his progressive re-
publlcanism, but he is man of
exceptionally ability and Judge
ment, that he will be elected is
certain and that he will properly
represent this district in the
Assembly is absolutely certain.

STILL FOR US
Former WaShburn man Writes
Interestingly of This
Region.

L. L. Birdsey who was for a
mum Der of years agent for the
American Express Co., in this
city has the following to say re,
garding this country.
| still own q small patch of
land, a forty near Washburn, and
some day would not be surprised
if l made my home on it for l
think that section of the country
near the lake has great future
in store for it in the small fruit
line, to say nothing of the pos
sibility as grain country. l
have been in the express busi-.
ness for tho last eighteen years,
beng connected with both the
American Express Company and
United States Express Co.. and
in that time | have handled
thousands and seen thousands
upon thousands of crates of
Blue and Straw berries in mar
ket aud in transit and I want to
say right here that the straw
berry season opens in Florida
and winds up in Gods country
on the shores of good old lake
Superior. During all these
years / have worked in Illinois,
Wisconsin. Michigan, Minnesota
and the two Dakota's and l have
never yet seen straw berries
that equal those grown around
Washburn, equal them in size,
flavor, color and in price when
once established in a good mar
ket. The way they will make a
person S mouth water and make
peoples eyes bulge out when
seeing themron city market, to
say nothing of eating a piece of
strawberry shortcake large
enough to choke an Ok. They
say more people go insane in
straw berry time than for the
same period for any other time
of the year it is enough to drive
any one insane to see the berries
that have been on the market
this year in this section, after
being used to those grown near
the Lake. Well cid friend when
| started. | did not intend to
write but few lines so / guess
| will close.
This is very nice little city
of 10000 population and very
busy city at that l am enjoying
a nice business here doing in
one month about as much as |
did at Washburn in 6 months.
Remember me to all friends.
| will close saying | am for
Washburn First, last and always
only wish | could be with you to
help make the Eagle SCI cam on
the 4th. Yours truly,
L. L. Birdsey.

Genesis 37-19: Behold, this dreamer
cometh."

PULPIT EXCHANGES
To FURTHER UNITY
Pastors of Many Churches Trade
Places for Sunday Morn
ing Services

ward the interdenominational oneness
of the Protestant churches ever at
tempted in this country will be the
general exchange of Los Angeles pull
pits Sunday morning, which will be
under the auspices of the Los Ange-
les Church federation.
The general aim of the federation is
to bring into closer friendship all the
Protestant evangelical churches that
more effective work may be accom-
plished in the religious field and, so
far as possible, clergymen of different
denominations will be sent to the
churches and in this manner bring
about a closer union.
The Church federation, which was
organized six years ago, is one of the
largest of its kind in this country, and
has taken an active part in various
movements tending toward a better
city.
