The Wisconsin flood of October,
1911, was the most serious on that
river since October, 1900, and with
that exception the highest water in SO
years was experienced. The losses to
dams, mills, crops, ETC., amount ap'
proximately to 100000. 1t is probable
that property saved as The result of
flood warnings exceeded the losses"
With that paragraph ]. HI. Spencer,
local forecaster at Dubuque, opens his
official flood report in the U. s.
weather bureaus Chronological Sum-
mary for October, 1911, just issued.
Warming for Future.
"Tne great floods of the past on the
Wisconsin river" writes Mr.. Spencer,
"will be duplicated in the future-but
when, no one knows. Popular notions
that the destruction of forests, the cul-
tivation of the soil, ETC., have materi-
ally altered climatic conditions are
erroneous. AS in the past, the floods
of the future depend almost entirely
upon the distribution and amount Of
precipitation.
Causes of the Flood.
In September, 1911, the average rain
fall for the Wisconsin valley from
Portage TO Rhinelander was about 5.98
inches, or 2.56 inches above normal.
This exceptionally heavy rainfall
thoroughly soaked the ground and
raised the rivers Of the upper Wiscon-
sin river system to rather high stage
for September.
The Losses.
In numeerating some of the flood
losses, Mr.. Spencer names these:
Wausau-Alexande Lumber Co
Sc 900; Wausau Street Ry. Co., $4,000.
othschilG-Marathon Paper Mills
Co., $10O,OOO.
Stevens Point-Damage to crops in
vicinity, $4,000.
Grand Rapids-Consoiidated Water
Power Co., $4,000; damage to crops in
vicinity several thousand dollars.
Kilbourn-Damage to crops above
snG below for dozen miles or more
$4,000. Several thousand dollars
/ damage to Kilbourn dam.
Prairie du Sac-$10,000 damage te
crops up and down the river twenty
miles each way. Big damage to par

One in Twenty is Wool Grower

Senator Mcclure, of the National Wool Growers Association re-
turned from Washington to lhado through Omaha, and the Omaha
Word-IIerad of recent date reporots him as saying:
1.-THE general opinion is that the (wooD industry is limited to a feW
individuals. but the census shows that last year there we're more than
100000 individual wool growers
Well, assuming that every wool grower is a voter,t that IS less than
ne voter in twenty. Why should the one maj tax the other nineteen
for his benefit? There is no good reason And why do som o.
gresham and Senaors pay more attention to the one nan NJ "a
sheep than to the nineteen who ar taxed for his benefit? Because the
wool grower is supposed to put his pecuniary interest in sheep above
everything else and to vte for h man who will protect him no mat

When Senator Massey voted to sustain the Commerce Court the
court that "a fashioned by Presto dent Taft to upsent and interfere
with the Interstate Commerce Commission, he most certainly voted
against the sentiment of the Nevadan and the people. This court has
done more to interfere with the progress of the Interstate Commerce
Commission than any other eve put forward by the trusts n
big powers. They and the Preside nt wanted it and have it on tap to
put material in the way OF progrc S..
If the Senator don't believe this ask Mr. FRANKLIN Lane of the In
tertate Commerce Commission; ask any member of the Railroad
Commission of this state: ask the Commissioner of every State in the
special our by the people. All the explanation that the Senator
might make don't relieve him in the minds of the Nevadans in this
particular.
The Commerce Court is regarded as the Commerce curse by
those who have investigated and the move to abish it a only pre-
vented bv such administration sta nd-pat votes as that cast by Senator
Massey. Senator Newlands. before the creation Of the court, told
what would result, and it did.

Track Walking.

A petition is before the Mayor
and Board of Aldermen seeking
to prohibit pedestrians from
using the railroad track in the
corporate limits. This petition
seeks to make of track walking
a misdemeonor and punishable
by fine.
The petition should be granted
both on account Of the people
and the railroad. The free aent
loss Of life on railroad tracks
makes it imperative that the law
should be invoked Tor the pur-
pose of protecting the people and
also as matter of justice to the
railroads. It is impossible for
the railroads to keep a lockout at
every point of its tracks, but
they should be and are required
to have a watchman at the prin-
cipal crossings. Pedestrians
VINO get on the track at points
where there is no watchman
take their lives in their own
hands and too frequently are
ground beneath mighty engines
on account of their own negli-
gence. For the sake of those
who take such risks the law
should step in and prohibit them
from using the track. Let the
ordinance be passed and rigldly
enforced.

!. unce that there viii be a meet

Mr.. Green will address those
D esent and invite every farmer
il, the county to be present and
become a member of the assoca-
ton. Live stock properly manag-
ed is the most profitable depart
ment on the farm. 1t pays the
greatest rate of interest and Its
value in the way OF improving
the soil cannot be over estimated
Too little attention is given It,.
The animals are sold from the
I;rm while immature and be-
FIRE their greatest value have
b. en- reached. This policy has
denuded our farms of live stock
and there should be steps taken
to induce the farmer to keep a
reater number Of live animals
on the farm.
