new CREAMERY WILL
Be BUILT HERE

One of the best days work that
was ever done to further the fut
ure Of Eagle River, happened on
Tuesday when a stock company
was organized to bnild and oper-
ate a creamery. The $4,000 90
in shares being taken BY our pub
lie spirited business men and far
mers, Clearwater Lake and Como
yer farmers will also assist in Sc
curing this important branch OF
the farming industry for Eagle
River. We have been personally
acquainted In sections where ma
ny creamerys have been built in
the past fifteen years and never
knew one instance where five years
later you could find any dissen-
sion as to the benefit the creamery
had been to that localld It is
possible and we think more than
likely the first winter aud possibly
the second, that owing co lack of
cows it may not be able to run at
full capacity, that condition will
soon mend It's self and is one that
will be found in measure in old
creamery districts in fact nearly
every creamery now in operation
started with that difficulty in the
way. We know of one that pays
out close to 100000 monthly
during the grass season that has
butter maker working on a three
year contract and who for about
three months in winter has more
leisure time than any other man
in town, very much to, the cha
grin Of some patrons. Judging
from the creamery history Of the
past, Eagle River may well be
glad to have secured one at this
time.
According to the recent census
Wisconsin is the greatest butter
and cheese state in the union and
the dairy industry is said to be in
creasing more than five billion
dollars per year. The dairy inter-
est tends much toward enriching
the soil and preserving it. 1t has
been ascertained that northern
Wisconsin is admirably adapted
to the cultivation Of this very i'm
portant industry. We predict that
the farmers of Villas county will
see their property advanced in val
lie and their earnings increased as
never before
Mr.. Emmons is entitled to much
credit for bringing the creamery
promoters to this vicinity. 1t is

Augustus Business Street.

Citizens of Augusta will read with
satisfac tion the announcement in an
other colmun that the contract for the
construction of the new Maine Central
passenger station has been awarded
and that work is to begin at once.
Completion. Jan. !, is the hope but that
seems hardly probable. fi ergsf4-
Tins splendid structure at the lower
end of Water street will add much to
the. attractiveness of the business sec
ton From Rines Hill to Bridge street,
solid wall of brick and stone
on either side, with one exeep-
ton, the old building at the corner
of Court street That is the one fly
in the ointment. 1t is an object OF
civic disapproyal. 1t seems a pity that
some arrangement cannot be made tic
remove this last reminder of the days
of wooden business blocks. AS one OF
a group of old fashioned structures
the bakery building would not excite
resentment on a city street, but stand
ing the last of it's kind, against the
wall of the handsome Hill-Macomber-
Wright block and in full reflection OF
a magnificent new station, it VIII be,
at least conspicuous.
In the spring lower Water street.
with its new station, new street sur
face. easier grade to Rines hill and
new walks, should present an appear
ance of which the city may we'll be
proud. In few citiess can be found a
business Street Of such handsome
frontage as Water street, Augusta. IN
most cities even the principal Dust
nass. streets have the old, old struc-
lures sandwiched in between the mod
ern brick and stone fronts and in most
cases these ofttimes offensive ana
shame provoking places which are a
standing menace to their surroundings
are monuments to the greed OF some
person who places his own selfish de-
sire above public interests ana Wei
fare. A city tagged with such struc-
lures in it's principal business streets
proclaims to it's visitors the seinshness
and lack of public spirit of some of Its
citizenship.
MANY visitors to Augusta praise It's
row of handsome business blocks The
summer of 1918 will see further ana
greater improvements. 1t is matter
of congratulation and public pride.

and men of means who opposed suf-

However, the people are broad

There's something in the climate that

other half. There is whole year of

..5Hazina 4 Criminal offense.

WITH the opening of American
high schools and colleges come few
more Instances of thuggery by a
class. which seems TO- have inherited
largely, the notion that it is priyii-
legged above other classes which must
bow before the law. Just why an
educated thug, or one in the process
of reconstruction into a respectable
citizen, should be allowed to commit
acts of personal violence with prac-
tical immunity from the usual conse-
quencesa to other thugs, is beyond
understanding. The custom of con-
doning such acts has too long pre-
vailed. That young men in fitting
schools and colleges should be al
lowed to murder and MAIN, almost
without hindrance, has been a dis
grace TO this free land. That such
brainless acts should be .perpetrated
In the guise of discipline by one
class of dictators over another is a
pitiful contempt Of courage and JUS
tice. 1t seems high time that this
privileged class notion were exploded
so emphatically by rigid laws as to
forever put an end to student prac-
tees of bullying and blackjacking.
In the University of North Caro-
lima hazing killed a young man the
other night. And from Ohio comes
the news of fatal injury to student
at the hands of his brutal fellows
In a herd of young bulls one might
expect fatality now and then in a
fair fight, but we seldom hear Of q
herd setting upon one steer and gor,
ing him to death. Yet in the SUI
perior intelligence of certain youns
men whose parents are trying to make
men OF them, there seems TO lurk thu
conviction that these brutal exhibi.
tons are necessary.
When legislatures make hazing ;
crime with stiff and sure penalties
we shall have definite remedy tina

Morning Breaks in the East.

In another column we publish the
letter of a Maine man who spent %
years in the West, and he longs to go
back where the bigness of things ap-
peals to him. He says it took him %
years to make good''-and then he
left for Maine. Many, very many, re-
turn to Maine at the very earliest
moment possible but they do not all
make good" OF course very many
more become acclimated and in
fatuated with the country and its
ways and opportunities, and would
never wish to return to New England
to stay. Their old home scenes have
changed in the first few years of their
absence; fond ties have been severed
for all time. So they become welded
to the new life and it is well.
But we feel sure that our friend in
Strong, who longs for the stirring
scenes where he spent the most ac-
tive days of his life, would not hesi-
tate to help dispel the Western
glamour which has robbed the "effete"
East of 50 much of its best blood in
the past. He corrects some of the
misunderstanding of the lady quoted
In our editorial but he reinforces the
general tenor of it. And he makes
it plain in somewhat extravagant
statement, that market conditions
favor the East. We believe he is
right in the declaration that we
should learn of the West and break
away from our narrow rut, to bore
holes with a bigger auger; we should
forget our petty jealousies and get
together" for common good and big
ger and better business.
We have done our feeble best to en-
courage the agricultural organization
idea and we have faith that it will
win. We have also said all We
could to show that the big hunks OF
opportunity that used to be lyine
around anywhere in the West, have
been grabbed by greedy fasteners
and foreigners and big, live young
Westerners who have the blood and
vim and broadness of the West in
them. From what we have seen OF
the West and from what we know OF
the East, ii is high time that we all
take hold together to develop and
boom the East according to the APP
proved Western idea.
We have had many extravagant
notions of the West, and it takes time
and patience to dispel much of the
nonsense that has been popularity alb.
sorbed, but the day of common sense
grasp Of the problem is at hand
Poor old Billy Smith went to Cali,

Now let us forget to dream of the
wonderful possibilities of the West
and dream of the things we know we
can do right here among our own
people where we love every hill and

even with the possibilities of the

The mayors repetition of his critism
of Names roads, a criticism which APP
pears to be based upon the amazing as
sumption that Maine would have good
ones if the State received a revenue
from liquor licenses, is liable to provoke
impatient comment from observant citi-
zens who are not willing to make al
lowances for the eXigencies of politics.
Such persons will probably reflect that
Maine is large State, thinly settled
over much of its area, and that, though
the last Legislature took vigorous action
for improvement, it is hardly equal to
rebuilding all its thoroughfares offhand,
even though to do so would crafty a
visiting statesman. Critics of the critic
might go still further and point their
comments by an appeal to local condi-
tons Boston has license system. Bos-
