OAK Rate Do@n
But OOXeS
Up.

To THE EDITOR:-I notice in q re-
cent issue of The News that the Bara-
boo tax rate has undergone "slight
decline" But what does that signify
so long as the Baraboo assessment has
been boosted $949 1888? Our 1911 assess
ment was 81, 281 ,O55 and now it is up
to S., 230, 1888. What earthly import
ance is the rate when valuations are so
hugely enhanced? A Milwaukee
paper publishes a news item to the
effect that the ''taX rate is lower" at
Baraboo-the "lowest since 1908 when
it was $18 per 81, OOO." That's all. Not
word about an augmented assess
ment of $949, 283 in this same blessed
Baraboo. Now, as matter of fast,
Baraboo people will pay considerably
more taxes next time than they paid
last despite the "lOwest rate since
1908" In short, they will pay some
$14, 900 more, even though the rate has
been lowered from $40 08 per 81 900 to
$19.O7. In Madison, too, the rate has
fallen from $17O5 per 81 900 to $16 per
81 900, but copcurrently that city has
had nearly 100000 arbitrarily added
to it's assessment; so that down there,
like here, they are paying dearly for
their progressive whistle, nor can any
income tax, corporation tax or any
other new tangled burden help the
matter much. We are paying pro-
digiously for the privilege of living in
civilization of our modern sort. That
is the solemn, simple truth.

WANTS new BRIDGE
At MERR|MACk
G. E. Kirchstein Gives Co.
gent Reasons for Building
one at the Village.
ON A STATE ROAD
Would Not Disturb Bust
ness of Twin City
Structures.

AS to the proposed new bridge at
Merrimack, q. E. Kirchstein, the viii
lage CLERK, writes as follows: "Peter
Richards is right. The new bridge
across the Wisconsin river should be
built at Merrimack. Under the state
highway improvement plan, Merri-
mack should have bridge as tne
state road passes through the village
from Lodi to Baraboo. [ think the
state should build or help to build
bridges where there are none or where
they have been condemned. At Prai-
rie du Sac there is stock company
which has a charter for the bridge
and the state should make them keep
it in good order and not assume con-
troll of it. Besides, the village at Sauk
City would be at loss by free bridge
at Prairie du Sac. The only feasible
thing left is 10 build bridge at Merri-
mack for the benefit of the towns,
villages and cities that are connected
by the state road.

PHILIP LAD[EY

Mock Trial at High School
Provokes Much

COP SWUNG A SAUSAGE

The mock trial given in the high
school last evening was we'll attended.
The policeman, Roy KunAelman,
caused much merriment in restoring
quiet and bringing back one juryman
who desired refreshments during the
trial. The cop had two pound sau-
sage which he f1ourished when some
one die not do just as they should.
The lawyers tried to get the wit
nesses to contradict themselves in CIV
ing testimony but only succeeded in
one or two cases. The lawyer for the
defense, G. w. Dickens, asked many
humorous questions and his humor
even caused the court to fine him,
five dollars at one time and ten ct
another. Mr. Dickens showed much
eloquence in making his plea to the
jury and evidently he had them
thinking as he wanted them to as the
unanimous verdict was not guilty.
The prosecuting attorney, Clifford La
Mar, was not as eloquent as the other
attorney but nevertheless he was not
slow in making his points.
The members of the jury were
Zelpha Meyers, Edna Marshall, Marie
Layden, Gloria Cooper, Elsie Isen-
berg, William Stanley, 7. Edw. Mead,
j. w. Frenz, Walter Stone, William
Troy, Henry Mcdonald and James

''I had always heard of the 'old In
dian sign of the corn husks indicating
a cold WINTER said a local weather
profit the other day, "but L had
never thought to notice it until
about a year ago. AS L was
husking corn L thought one of the ears
had thick husk, so I counted the
leaves and found there were seven of
them, which was a good husk.
$50 this year, noticing the husks
seemed thick, went out and pulled
an ear off that looked as if it had a
thick husk On it., and cut across it at
the stem and counted eighteen layers.
If the corn husks know more about
the coming winter than a man does,
and such winter as last followed a
seven-layer husk, what will follow an
eighteen layer husk?"
