Washburn Should Have Plant

Olaf Anderson, a business
man of Wausau, was in the city
last Saturday. Mr., Anderson is
one of the stockholders in a
plant which manufactures pine
stump products at Wausau and
he is of the opinion that such a
plant should be established in
this city. He says that those
interested in the Wausau plant
would be willing to put up half
of the amount to establish q
plant in this city for the one at
Wausau is a big money maker
for the stockholders. A plant of
this kind utilizes pine stumps
to manufacture cresote, turpen-
tine. paints, sheep and cattle dip
and other products. Good prices
are paid the farmers for their
stumps and makes it an induce.
ment to clear up their land more
rapidly. Mr. Anderson gave
out the information that the
plant at Wausau cost Rabout $50,
900 to build.

TosInstall Plant

The Naval Militia made a pro-
position to the council at the
Tuesday meeting in which they
offered to purchase a heating
plant for the town hall building
if the city would pay the ex-
pense of installing the same.
The proposition looked like
very good one to the city and
by unanimous vote the coun-
Gil voted to install the plant. The
Naval Militia have a five year
lease on the town hall building
and they have gone to consider
able expense in fitting it up.
The hose house and city jail is
located in the lower part of the
building and the Militia offer to
purchase the plant for the entire
building. The plant is one. that
has been used by the dynamite
people at Barksdale which
Mr.. Beers very generously
donated to the militia, the
ouly charge being the cost Of
the radiators. q The cost of in
stalling the plant will be from
800 to $3.50. ss

JOHN WALSH,
Plaintiffs Attorney.
The case is started by j. R.
Mitchell and Robert Steinert who
appear as PLAINTIFF in the action.
The cases will likely come up for
trial at the October term of the
circuit court for Bayfield, county.
The history of the case is this:
Some time ago the council passed
resolution authorizing the committee
on public grounds and buildings to
investigate the condition of the heat
ing plant in the city hall building and
giving them fullpower to act in the
matter. This committee is composed
of Aldermen Hacker, Fluck and
Ambly. An investigation was made
and the committee deemed the in
stallation of new boiler necessary.
The committee claim that they had
very little time to act if the work
was to be performed before cold
weather set in and Mr.. Fluck was
asked to get figures for them which
was done. The work was then
awarded to Mr.. Fluck and the boiler
was installed.
The parties starting the action
against the aldermen claim that the
committee had no right to give the
work to Mr.. Fluck because of the
fact hat he was member of the
committee and the council awarding
the work. furthermore they claim
that the committee and the council
did not comply with the law when
they failed to advertise for bids as re-
CURED.
No one seems to be of the opinion
that the price was in any way excess
sive or the work was not performed
in satisfaetorx manner but the
whole thing seems to be based on the
failure of the council and committee
to comply with the law. 1t is the
opinion of many that an error was
made in not advertising for bids as
should be done in cases of this kind.
Mr.. Fluck says that it is an attempt
of few to get even and that he
does not propose to be made the
goat. He says that in years past
aldermen and persons holding public
Offices have been doing business with
the city and that the same law that
applies to him also, applies to others
and that he will see to it that all are
served alike.

The "WAR" GOES ON
Kansas City's Newspaper Fight Grows
More Interesting.

Kansas City, Feb. 17.-An injunc-
ton restraining the police force from
interfering with newsboys selling the
Post is the latest turn in the news
paper fight in this city. Dozens of
neWsboys selling the Post have been
arrested on the charge of disturb
ing the peace, blockading traffic and
other similar charges. Sam (Jew)
Miller, the boy who sold State Jour
nails in Topeka last fall, was held in
close confinement in one of the KAN
sas City jails for 1 Z hours on the lin
vestigatiOn" charge. He was then re-
leased. A bond of $4,000 was offered
for his release, but was refused by
police officers. His hearing was be-
fore a judge who had been criticised
by the Kansas City Star and he was
released.
A report that the bonds of the ar
rested neWSboyS were to be raised to
$500 each caused Otto F'loto, sporting
editor of the Post, to go to the police
station with 500 in his pocket and
wait for an opportunity to give bail
for the victims of arrest during the
day The Journal, the Kansas City
morning Republican paper, is taking
sides against the Star in the fight and
the owner of the Star and the police
administration were hayed in its col
umnS. The police commissioners in
an order signed by two of them, have
directed the police to pay no attention
to the Injunction granted in an effort
developments may prove interesting.
The strike of the newsboys is the re-
suit of Kansas City's cut rate news
paper war. The Post is a 1 cent paper.
It pays the boys II cent on each paper
sold The Star has been a cent paper
and has recently cut the price to 1 cent
to meet the competition. It pays the
boys only Il cent on each paper sold.
The strike resulted from the boys re-
fusing to handle the Star and when
others ATTEMPTED to do so thew were
attacked and driven off the street. The
arrests followed.

GETS II
New State Insane Hospital Is
Located.
Governor Finally Places o. X.
on Site Chosen.

Larned gets the new state hospital.
Governor Stubs. who had held up the
final location of the site ever since
the board of control made the selec-
ton last fall, today placed his official
O. X on the Pawnee county town
The law providing for the selection
of the site gave the board power to
pick the place, with the approval of
the governor"
The board visited a dozen towns
and spent, off and on, a large part
of the summer considering the site
for the new hospital. There was
warm competition for the place.
Iarned finally won because of loca-
i ton, altitude, railway facilities and
water Great Bend, Ellsworth, Wa
keeney, Scott City and many other
towns were in close competition and
made a great fight for the place.
When the boards selection of the
site was finally made public the gov
ernor declined to place his o. K. on
Larned until he had considered the
matter. The towns that had made
claims to the board were invited to
present them to the governor. After
several months the governor has final
Iy decided that the advantage lay with
Larned. The water proposition, as
much as any, helped the Pawnee town
to win. They have soft water in
abundance there.
The board of control has an option
on land for the hospital near Larned
for $50 an acre 1t is likely, how
ever, that the land for the site will
be condemned. The board will start
work at once to secure the site so
that the work on the institution can
begin promptly. The appropriation
for the new hospital is 100000.
The following towns in the Sixth
and Seventh districts tried for the
new institution: Hill City, Lenora
Norton, Downs, Oakley, Wakeeney
Ellis, Lacrosse, Great Bend, Larned
SpearVille, Pratt, Scott CITY Ashland

Showing a reversal of form over that

battle, only TO lose by one point in the
last half after missing several free

the playing of both teams was fast al j

team play which bore the trademark

was the most spectacular. bringing the
crowd to its feet several times during
the evening by his brilliant throwing
center position is deserving of special
mention, he being responsible for many
brilliant flashes of teamwork which
resulted in scores. He is a strong,
reliable player. Bishop and Ream
played a strong defense around the
Manhattan goal.
For Manhattan, Souders played a
star game and displayed great accuracy
in throwing goals. The playing of the

strong at the final whistle as when the
