tive banks in the state, held its
annual meeting Of stockholders
Wednesday at noon.
As usual, a dividend of 10 per
cent was declared and paid on
the 100000 capital stock. The
phrase, as usual" is used be-
cause of the fact that ever since
its inception to its present emf
nence, this staunch institution has
never failed to pay the above
dividend to its stockholders, and
the banking world has come to
look upon this event with the
u%nvarying regularity as the
Of the sun.

A failure in any business hurts
the entire community; many peo-
pie are connected with the run
ming Of one enterprise. A con-
Germ goes broke, every business
in the town and many place out
OF town is hit a hard blow, BUSH
ness concerns that are run with
out system, that have no capital
of its own, that have been tried
long enough to see that it is moth
ing more or less than an imposi-
ton should be outlawed. That
person who deliberately plans a
venture and gains credit and fin-
ally winds up in debt to every
body commits a great wrong to
the community. Some men are
honest enough TO stop when they
see they can't succeed, The great
est good any community can do
every year is TO have a general
cleaning up; stop patronizing the
failures hat feed upon the public.

Obituary.
COURTLAND H. BLIVEN.

After an illness of some weeks fol-
lowing an attack of paralysis, c.. H..
Bliven died at his residence in this city
at O'Clock Saturday morning, aged 81
years. The deceased was born in Wes-
terly, r. l., coming to Wisconsin in
1866 with his parents who settled in the
town of Albion. AS a young man he
went to Tomah where he was engaged
in business for short time, when he
returned to New York City where for
several years he was engaged in the
building and selling of yachts with his
brother. During the Spanish-Americar
war in Cuba they were instrumental in
selling the government large amount
of shipping.
In 1900 he came to Edgerton and
purchased the Lake House property of
VIM. Taylor and spent quite large
sum improving that property. For
about two years he conducted The Carl
ton hotel. He was always interested
in fine horses and maintained racing
stable for several seasons. Later he
purchased the hitching barn and
bowling alley in this city which he con-
Quoted at the time of his death. He is
survived by wife, now insane and
cared IOf Dy relatives III Inc east
Their only daughter, Violet, drowned a
few years ago in Lake Koshkonong
while skating. A sister residing in
Boston and another sister, Mrs. Her
man Koosch, living in Montana, also
survive.
Funeral services were conducted from
the Congregational church Monday at
ternoon by Rev. Bannen of Rockford
and interment took place in the family
lot in Albion cemetery.

The Chautauqua idea is one of the
greatest moral educational forces in
the country. Aside from this, the
Chautauqua program affords us de-
lightful entertainment at smaller cost
during the summer season when people
like to take their pleasures in the open.
A splendid program is to be offered the
people of Edgerton in the course OF
two or three weeks. Show by your
patronage that you really want enter
tainments of merit in your town. Be
sure that there will be pleasure for the
children of the family as we'll as their
elders. The program is lengthy and
varied and you are assured of hearing
excellent talent.
1t is quite probable that the Bliven
hitch barn and bowling alley property
must be sold to settle the estate, and
The Reporter would like to offer the
suggestion that the city purchase the
property for the use of the general
pubic. IL HScuS NC, oOiIiS duOiCIOiioA
property adjoining might be secured to
provide public hitching place which
! Edgerton has long needed. What is
also needed is rest room where coun-
try shoppers might find conveniences
nowhere else to be found, and the
Bliven property would supply that.
There should be some way devised to
prevent the hitching of teams on the
improved streets of the town, which
can only be prevented by supplying a
public hitching place. We believe the
way is now open for the city to secure
| one. If it should be thought best to
continue the charge of a moderate fee
for the use of the hitch stable the
revenue would amply pay interest on
the investment so the burden upon the
taxpayers need not be great. Isn't the
project feasible one?
