WAsHBuRN IS PROGRESSIVE

The most progressive move made
by Washburn in it's entire history is
the building of that new co-operativ
warehouse. That it will be success
there can be but little doubt for CO.
operative enterprises have proven
blessing 10 almost every community
in which they have been started.
But that is not the main gain. A
city can succeed and prosper only in
the degree that it's citizens work in
harmony,t to promote all the interests
of the community. Fortunately the
time has passed forever when men
came to this north country TO make
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1912-12-05
PALAVER
OF A
PROGRESSIVE
NORTHWESTERN WISCONSIN is 1T

NORTHWESTERN WISCONSIN is 1T
Northwes tern Wisconsin has pro-
mulgated its declaration of indie
pendence in unmis taxable terms. 1t
has demonstrated that it's progress
iveness is not blind adherence to
single leader or to some few adj
vanced principles. 1t is consti-
tulionlly and nsisten fly as well as
economically on the move. Most OF
these counties have end, rsed the new
party while declaring for woman s
suffrage at the same time. and in
this respect stand in splendid and
triumphant isolation 10 the state.
LaFOllette was unable 10 defeat or
decoy this progressive purpose to
suit his own design. He was instru
mental in creating it but the move
meut he started has become u
Frankenstein and passed beyond his
control. Northwestern Wisconsin
has always held the balance OF power
in the phenomenal advance of the
state but it mas now grabbed the
banner itself and is ,shng boldly
to the front. The / st of the state
will have to line up in double quick
time or be forever ! 4 Inflated.
To ascertain the, 81 tors that have
led this region to 96. such posi-
tion would be interes ting aud valu-
able. That it is not due to the
accidents OF political manipulation
must be plain. To all intents and
purposes this is a new country and
partakes of the pioneer spirit of the
far west. There are no traditions
to maintain and, what is more, there
are no selfish interests to preserve
against a growing sense of soc al
justice. No burdensome prejudices
have accumulated and no entangling
alliances have been entered into, for
the lumber barons have never gained
the confidence OF this people. Here
the political compass points due
north and registers correctly the
movements of the common mind free
from the magnetism of false lode
stars. If you want to know whether
the progressive ship has found the
true course look to Northwestern
Wisconsin. Therefore it is of the
utmost significance that this section
stands committed to the Progressive
party when once it was the strong
hold of LaFoilette forces
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1912-12-05

their little pile by mortgacing the
future and then pulling out to let
the future take care of itself 1t is
going to be long pull and strong
pull and pull altogether to pitt this
section on its feet again. In short
time this warehouse will create a
better feeling, demonstrate the
great advantages of ever increasing
cooperation, and be the best argu-
ment and incentive for getting to-
gether ON every proposition that
may benefit Washbnrn. Anyhow
no one will now b able to say
That Washburn is not progressive.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1912-12-05

GOOD citizens generally will
endorse the plan of the city
council to establish a municipal
skating rink for the free use of
the children of the city and the
small expense attached will be
cheerfully borne by the taxpay-
ers. The movement is one of
the best that has ever been
started by the council for it will
provide a place where children
can enjoy good healthful amuse-
ment and exercise under good
conditions. It is perfectly right
that the city should establish
some place where the children
can enjoy themselves and sciti-
zens should encourage the coun-
Gil mem bers in the work. Lets
have the rink by all means.

AN EvoLUTIoNIsT IN Politics

A progressive is just an evolution
list in politics. He believes especially
IN the survival of the fittest. Just
because a party has existed forty or
sixty years does not prove TO him
that it must exist another forty or
one hundred years. He has been
impressed with the fast that even
in our own brief history once
powerful parties have been given
the count to the immense advantage
of good gov eminent. He sees our
sacred" constitution in the light of
evolution. If it is not growing nor
adjustable to present-day needs it is
dead already and should be buried
in a hurry to avoid an awful stencil.

JUDGE GRAvIN of Ashland has
about the right idea in dealing
with wifebeaters brought be-
fore his court. This week an
Ashland tailor was brought be.
fore Judge Garvin charged with
wifebeating and was given a
fine of $25 and costs or twenty
six days in the county jail with a
provision that if he did not
want to stay locked up in the
county bastile that he could
continue at his occupation. leav-
ing the Jail every morning at
eight o'clock, returning to the
Jail for dinner and again or
supper and sleep. BY this
method the man will not only be
given a term at the county jail
but at the same time will be
earning enough to support his
wife and family. The old idea
was to throw a man into Jail and
in many cases the family stuff
cred during his Incarceration.
But now many of the cities
throughout the country are
forcing their prisoners to work
while under sentence thereby
contributing to tn e support of
their families.

BLOWING UP STUMPS


There is only one reason for the
slow progress of this north country
stumps. These stumps, were once
an asset when they were part of S
tree. But now they are our chief
liability. You cannot pillow them
under as stubble nor will they rot
away in time to make room for the
crops and the orchards that are
slowly reaching out for this land.
They must be dynamited or pulled
out by main force. Nor are we 60
ing to accomplish much by isolated,
spasmotic effort as at present.
That is discouraging business. Only
as this is done on an organized,
we'll financed basis will we come
into our own.
The same thing is true OF all
progress, The world moves forward
so slowly simply because OF the
stumps, stunps of deep-rooted
prejudices, institutions and conven-
tions that have been logged over
and have gone into the making OF
the splendid edfics of present day
civilization. They only survive as
stumps and as such are now a
menance and an obstacle to any tru"
advance. We have been sowing the
seed between the stumps and plant
ing our fine orchards there but it is
very unsatisfactory. A few brave
souls have been blowing up here and
there few stumps and have made u
clearing for themselves but the
world as a whole is lagging behind.
Free dynamite would clean up the
stumps in hurry. And the beauty
of it is that we are now distributing
free mental If not material dyna-
mite. An effective and universal
educational system together with
free press will soon send the old
pine stumps of prejudice. ignorance
and mere tradition into smithereens.
