hoped that this wise provision of the
law which requires that the financial
statement shall be published not later
than the first week in February of
each year will be complied with-a
statement eleven months old is of
little interest or value to the tax
payers.
While the law requires the statement
to be published three times, we are of
the opinion that one publication Of
this lengthy and belated report will
suffice for this year, as we anticipate
the statement for 1910 will be prepared
and published six weeks or two
months hence; besides, it would be a
useless waste of money. By publish
ing it three times the printers fees
would be doubled. The statement will
also be published in the Milaca
Times, the Onamia Lake Breeze and
in the Wahkon Enterprise, thus
thoroughly covering every section Of

The statement shows that the net
Indebtedness of the county is, or
rather was on January 4, $44, O99. OF,
and the exact indebtedness of the
county at the present time is not fa1
from that amount.
In our judgm the Indebtedness o.
the county should be funded by ar
issue of Is or 20 years bonds at low
rate of interest, say per cent, an6
under no circumstances should any
further indebtedness be incurred
The county should live within it's in
come. We believe necessary legisla
ton can be secured at the ensuing
session of the legislature to permit O.
the funding of floating indebtedness O.
counties by the issuing of bonds
All outstanding orders bear interes
at tie rate of six per cent, and if thu
required legislation can be secured
the state will make the loan at pei

He said that the service which this

described how the school children IN

the lives OF our great men equally with
those OF their own country and Europe.
He mentioned the deep gratitude which
was everywhere exhibited among this

they did to themselves. - ~

MAKING THE JEWS SOCIALISTS.
Circular That Talks OF False Patriot.
Ism" Inspired by the Rich.

The Jewish Socialist Agitation Bureau.
which moved its headquarters In the
beginning OF the year from Chicago to
III Division street, New York. issued a
statement yesterday announcing its pur-
poses and methods. It says that the
bureau in its early stages was look ed on
with more or less distrust by the other
Socialists until they began TO realize the
nature OF its work. 1t says:
The jewish immigrant coming from a
country where he has been feeling the
oppressive hand OF the despotic ruler more
than his fellow worker OF other nationsIi-
ties Is very apt to become a victim of
American jingoism. The Jewish capital
lists the country over have their agencies
In the form Of institutes. where all efforts
are bent to inspire the Jewish Immigrants
with false patriotism. and where he is
taught TO believe that in this country all
are equal and that it is the height Of in
gratitude to protest against existing con-
ditions
Realizing this condition OF affairs and
ecosnizing the fact that4n order to educate
the jewish immigrant to the true condition
OF anairs IL Is necessary to address him in
his own tongue. the Jewish comrades have
organized this bureau. where a system Of
a agitation and education IL carried on by men
who not only know the language but who.
born and bred in the Ghetto. know the
spirit OF the Jewish masses and how best
to approach them.
Then follows an exhortation to all
jewish workingmen TO unite and fight
against the wage system and for the

GOULD LINE FOR MEXICO.
Road From Laredo Said to re COntem-
plated TO Onset New Brownsville Route.


NUEvo LAREDO. Mexico. Jan. SO.-The
recent visit to Nuevo Laredo and other
points in Mexico OF Edwin Gould has
caused a revival Of the report that the
Gould system OF railroads is TO be- ex-
tended into Mexico and that the Gulf
port OF Tampico. or perhaps the CITY OF
Mexico, is the proposed southern ter
minus OF a line to be built from Nuevo
Laredo southeast through the States of
Tamaulipas and Vera Cruz. During his
stay at Nuevo Laredo and all along the
route Of his travel through Mexico Mr.
Gould made many inquiries in regard to
the character OF the territory and the
traffic possibilities of the interior Dor
tions Of the States that the proposed line
would traverse.
IL was the original plan ofIthe late jay
Gould to extend the International and
Great Northern from Laredo. Tex, to
Tampico and the oity OF Mexico. He
went so far as to build about 100 miles
OF grade for the proposed extension.
This grade runs from Nuevo Laredo to
a point on the Soto Ia Marina River. Il
is said that il Is still owned by the Goulds
although the Government concession for
the proposed road lapsed many years
ago. Inc grade Is overgrown with scrub
but it could be placed in serviceable
shape at very little expense.
According to the story now being told
IN Mexico the Goulds are convinced that
the opening OF the new International gate
way via Brownsville will mean an enor-
nous loss Of through traffic to the Inter-
national and Great Northern. as the new
route will be much shorter than the one
via Laredo. 1t is expected that the Ma
tlonal Railways OF Mexico will divert |
much OF its through traffic to the Frisco |
system at Brownsville instead OF giving |
lt to the International and Great North |
ern as at present. In order to protect it's \
own traffic interests the International |
and Great Northern must be extended |
into Mexico.
Preparations are being made to build |
. new International railroad bridge across |
ihe Rio Grande, connecting NuevO Laredo |
with Laredo, Tex. The expense will be |
borne equally by the International and |
ireat Northern and the National Rail- |
ways Of Mexico.
