the defamation of character that his
tory can Show" Also that he (the
president) was the conspirators' real
object of attack. The president
might have said the same thing in
other words. He could have said that
the witnesses in the Ballinger case
were perjurers. The presidents

resignation from the cabinet indi-
Gates much as to Mr.. Taft's charac-

Grant was. That however, is not nee

Is serious failing. He has not a
judicial mind; this may not be an I'M
usual fault with men who have held
office as federal judges, since they are
appointed, not elected. He Is immov-

they disagree with his friendships.

DEATH OF MRS. DICkEY.

Editor Pilot -
As the articles which have been
published concerning the death of
Mrs. Janette Dickey have been in
acurate, l send you the following,
which | trust you will give space in
the PILOT, inasnuch as deceased was
one of the pioneer settlers of Mara
thOn county.
Mrs. Ann Janette Dickey of Scho-
field, wife Of the late Benoni Dickey
died at Snohomish, Washington, at
the home of her daughter, Mrs. G. E.
Upper, on the 14th Gay of Feb, 1911.
Her daughter, Mrs. G. A. Thresher
of Schoheld, received word that her
mothers condition was very critical
and she started at once for her bed
side but did not arrive in time to see
her mother alive. She brought the
remains home with her and interment
was had in Pine Grove cemetery on
the 18th of Feb, the Rev. +. II.
Brigham, pastor of the First M. E..
church of this city officiating.
Mrs. Ann Janette Dickey was born
in New Hudson, N. Y, on the 18th
in her 18th year. She lived and grew

was there that she was united in
marriage to Benoni Dickey on the
10Th day of May, 1S49. Mr.. Dickey
was mill wright and he came west
in 1854 and built the first saw mill at
Scholfeld which was purchased by
VIM. Scholfleld in 1856. In 1856, after
having arranged for home in which
to live, Mr., Dickey went back East
md hFnIlnht bic u,ffn inf
pinery, and for over forty years this
most worthy couple resided in Scho-
field, beloved and honored by all who
knew them. Mr.. Dickey acted in the
capacity of mill wright in the Scho-
field mills until few years before
his death, which occurred on the 18th
day of April, 1897.
Mrs. Dlckey continued to occupy
the old home in Schotield. Two years
ago she went East to visit her sister
and shortly after returning, went to
Seattle to visit her daughter, Mrs.
Upper, and to attend the exposition.
After brief stay she came home and
soon after was taken sick and for a
time ii was thought that she could
not live. Her daughter having come
on from the West when her mother
improved sufficiently she took her to
Snohomish with her, the trip being
made during the early part of last
May. ks
Mrs. Dickey was the mother of six
| children, two of whom survive her,
Mrs. Upper and Mrs. Thresher men,
toned above. She also is survived by
one sister, Mrs. John Dickey of New
Hudson, n. Y.
Mrs. Dickeys life was filled with
kindly deeds, and she was conscien-
tious christian woman ana one who
will long be remembered by those
who knew her.

How to Grow a city.

The process of growth in all cities
is the same-people who desire to
change their business location, or
their residence, come, look the city
over, observe things which they like
and others they do not like, weigh
them against each other and decide
to locate or look elsewhere.
A large majority of people are home
seekers. They are more interested in
matters that go to make homes enjoy
able than in luxurious amusements
which they cannot afford, and which
they have no time for on week days,
being mechanics, workers in mills,
factories, stores, ETC., who are tired
after their days work. This class
comprises the majority in all impor-
tant cities. They are attracted to
cities where drinking water is healthy,
where cleanliness prevails, where pub
lie health is carefully guarded.
Schools and churches are good and
pleasant parks invite them and their
families to enjoy Sunday afternoon
outing. II they move to such city,
they write home to friends, describing
the advantages found in their new
location, and thus others are induced
to come.
But the class of people above des-
cribed also need employment, and
this is their greatest need, SO they
will not come to Wausau unless there
is demand for what they can do.
Hence in order to attract them, in
dustrial plants of various kinds are
needed, and the builders Of such
plants are attracted by the advantages
that tempt the workers to come, but
they need other things,-good ship
ping facilities, raw material and room
for their plants that can be purchased
at warrantable prices. The oppor-
tunitieS for amusement that attract
these people are abundant in Wausau,
and the surrounding country. Roths-
child park, lake Wausau, good fish
ing and hunting, as good roads as
the average for auLomobiling, and a
better chance to make. excellent roads
cheaply than can be found in South
ern Wisconsin.
To make our city as attractive as
possible TO these classes of people is
the first need; to advertise ourselves
so that they will come and look us
over is the next step. In the New
West and Southwest they know how
to advertise and they have built up
large cities there mainly through ad-
vertising. OF course city which has
few natural advantages or is poorly
located cannot be helped much
through advertising, but, on the other
hand, no matter how good the loca-
ton may be, people won't come unless
they hear about the place. Wausau
is so well fixed for natural growth
that it has grown rapidly without
advertising, but other places not
nearly so good, in the West and South
west have grown much faster. Why2
Because their citizens have advertised
their advantages widely. This is
what we must now do

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

The training school will close for a
short spring vacation during the first
week in April.
An interesting debate was presented
by the students of Mr. Wells division
upon the question Resolved that the
Panama canal should be fortified. ;"
Both sides presented strong argu-
ments. The majority of the students
seemed to be in favor of no fortitica-
tion but the decision of the judges
was rendered in favor of the affirma-
tive side of the debate.
A hurried program is being pre-
pared by the Irish students of the
school in honor of st. Patrick. Each
student will tell an Irish joke, old
Irish songs will be sung, stories and
bits of history related. Lantern views
of Irish scenes and perhaps tableau
will be presented.
The rivalry between the two classes
manifested itself again on Friday
last. This time the senior class was
the first to show its colors. They
presented to the school beautiful
1911 pennant, made of green and
white felt, the class colors, After
the presentation speech the class gave
vent to half dozen yells which it
had composed during the past week.
The juniors were expecting to be sur
prised and determined not IG 5e be-
hind, expressed their enthusiasm by
presenting plant to the school, and
in showing up record of work done
in arranging pictures, magazines, and
papers in the reading room.
All the students attended at least
one of the lectures given under the
auspices of the farmers convention.
The report of the lecture attended
was used as material for composition
work the next day.
On Thursday afternoon all students
of the training school inspected the
Coliseum exhibit and wrote essays
upon it as part of their work in
