tive tariff that we cannot stand I'D

Ell Or even looscnedl It will be a
blessing to be wakened out of this
deliriun, and we confidently be-
lieve that would be the result of
such a revision of the tariff as there
is now an opportunity for. Com

We would like to see the next
legislature pass a Stringent law
compelling county officers to open
their offices and be on duty not
later than 8 o'clock in the morning
on all legal days. Other people
are at work by that time and We
do not know of any reason why a.
county officer should III, work
the same as other people. If such
law was on the books and enforc-
ed. there might be q less number
of deputies for the taxpayers to
pay.

afternoon killed between eight and twelve
workmen. injured twenty-seven others,
several OF whom will die, and caused
about 10000 damage 10 property. Eight

tlnued minor explosions.
The explosion tore the two story frame
top house from the five story building and
scattered bits OF 1t for fifty yards In all
directions. The body OF one man was
blown across the Chicago & Northwestern
Railroad right OF way TO the hillside in

.BARKSDALE TO
PUT UP A FIGHT
Will Ask Courts to Force
County to Build Bridge
Have Raised SIS, 900 and Want
County to Put up
Equal Amount

The residents of the town of Barks-
dale are going to ask the courts to
compel Bayfield, county to build their
share of a permanent steel bridge
over Fish Creek at the head of the
bay to take the place of the long
wooden bridge now in use.
The town of Barksdale at town
meeting held recently voted to bond
the town for $5, 900 to pay for half of
the cost of constructing new bridge
and at the annual meeting of the
county board held last week petition
was presented to the board asking
that the county appropriate like a.
mount. This the county declined to
do until further investigation could
be made and the people of Barksdale
believe that this was only another
move to delay the matter. They
now say that they will take the mat
ter into the courts to compel the
county board to take action.
For years the people of the town
of Barksdale have been fighting for a
new bridge over Fish Creek and it
begins to look as if they do not pro-
pose to give up their fight.

Objected ito Surgery

DR.. T. r. Spears aud party of
hunters returned last Friday
afternoon from trip to Mile
Post 9 on the Northern Pacific
line. According to his compani-
ons the Doctor had quite an ex-
perience with a wounded buck
deer. The story is that the
Doctor had knocked down a
fine deer with the very last shot
in his rifle and after admiring
his prize had proceeded tC oper-
ate on Mr.. Deer by cutting it's
throat. Mr.. Deer evidently OBJ
jected to surgery for as the
Doctor was bending over it to
perform what he thought was
the necessary operation the deer
came to life and after tearing
a part of the clothing off the
Doctor it managed to get on it's
feet again and departed through
the woods, waving a farewell
greeting with his tail to the sur.
prised Doctor.
AS evidence of the struggle
the Doctor came into came with
a torn coat and vest and a look
that indicated that he had been
fooled.
The boys in camp told the
Doctor that he ought to have
known better than to try an d
perform such a delicate opera
ton without first having ad-
ministered an anaesthetic in the
shape of ball Of lead, to which
he agreed. He returned, how
ever, with the tag on Ills license
filled, but he lla'l 10 bring down
another deer in order to do so.
