BUSINESS FRIENDSHIPS,

When you walk into your office,
it is often said that all considera
lions OF sentiment or friendship must
be left behind. There are great re-
wards, though, that come from devel-
oping business friendships, and parti-
cularly on forming trade associations
with the business men of your own
town.
A business man may feel that he
saves a few cents by going to some
distant city to place an order for
some supply. Let him first look at
what he has lost by giving his mo-
ney to build up the town he nev-
er saw
If he had ordered his supply at
home, the bulk of his money would
have remained at home, and would
have helped to make other home in
dustries prosperous.
Perhaps stiE more important than
that, looking at things from a pure
" selfish consideration, is the fact
that when a business man buys his
supplies of home dealer, he makes
a business friendship that in most
cases is very valuable The man
whom he has patronized will do any
thing in his power to return the fav-
Or.
A genuine business ally made for
you in this way, is working for you
in times when you knooW it not. Peo-
pie discuss the merits Of this or that
store far more than the merchant re-
allies. The business man who buys
all his supplies at home whenever
possible will find that he has
friend at court in many widely sep
arated circles, who want him to sue
coed because the home community
profits by his success.
If you want favors from the local
government, if you want to stand well
with the working classes, if you need
accommodation in times of financial
strain, you can't have too many
friends at home who will say a good
word for YOU The supply firm a hui
dred miles away never returns you
one thing, except the smiles of its
statesmen. Those don't count much.

UNIVERSITY is HIT
BY INCOME TAX LAW

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 1.-THE rev
enues of the University of Wiscon-
sin have been reduced about S37, All
because of the income tax law. The
figures are based upon the total
amount of personal property exempt
from taxation as shown by the re-
cords of the state tax commission.
For a number of years the university
has been allowed a three-eights of a
mill tax. When the income tax law
was passed certain articles of per-
sonal property were exempt from tax,
alton AS the result of this omis-
sion, the assessed valuation of per
sonal property for the current year
was decreased s205, 600 900. The as.
sessed valuation of the real estate
was increased to about $106, 900, 600.
leaving a net decrease of about S99,
600, 900 in the total assessed valuation
OF all the property in the state. This
will give the university about SS7,
All less than the year previous.

A man once wrote ''All men are
liars"
But there's other kind of men,
Yet, note carefully the liar,
For he lied, he'll lie again.
Some men lie and scarcely know it,
Others lie and know it we'll,
But their hearts are bent on lying
For them" the truth is hard to tell
Lying is an awful habit
It's to God and man untrue,
And the man who doth pursue it
Cannot Heavens gates go through.
Lying is a crime to morals
Lying is old Satan's blight,
Lying is wrong so do not do it,
Then quit your lying, it isn't right
Tell the truth and be We truthful
Tell the truth without a doubt,
And note the folly of the falsehood-
BE sure your sin will find you out. ;
Tell the truth, it always eonquers
Tell the truth, for truths sake,
Tell the truth, and shame the devil,
Truth hath power, truth hath weight
For the works of human greatness
May decay and pass away,
But the truth will live forever,
Yea, the truth viii win the day.

TALE Of THE
BRAVE SIXTH
BY Lieut.. Col. j. A. Watrous, U. S. A

BY Lieut.. Col. j. A. Watrous, U. S. A.
The late Gen. R. R. Dawes, who
went to the war from Mauston, as cap
tain of company K, Sixth Wisconsin,
had been a claSsmate of the late Col.
and Senator w. F. Villas in the state
university. Every survivor of the re
giment remembers Gen. Dawes as a
model soldier and gentleman and a
fighter of the best type. He was a
persistent student, didnot drink, gam
bic or use tobacco. He also was not
ed for his great kindness to his sol
diers. After the war he resided in
Ohio, represented his district in com
gress and narrowly escaped a nomin-
alton for governor when Capt. J. b.
Foraker was nominated for a third
term and defeated
Many years after the war the post
at Mansion had a campfire and Gen.
Dawes was invited. Several survivors
of his old company K were to be
present. The generals health preveL
ed acceptance. He wrote a letter in
stead 1t was such a letter as such
an officer and such a man would ma
turally write. l feel warranted in
making it public, two of my reasons
for doing so being these: The lovine
remembrance of his 100 men of the
Lemonweir Rifles, company K, as ex-
pressed in the letter, and the large
number of its battle tragedies. Sew
enty-two of the 100 felt the sting of
the bullets. and twenty-one were kill
ed outright. AS you read the fol-
lowing remember that company K
was only one of the ten companies
of the regiment, and that some of
them lost more in battle-company I,
for instance, which had eighty-four
killed and wounded.
The letter from Gen. Dawes con-
tanned two pal agraphs of local inter
est. They were about John Ticknor,
brother of Henry Ticknor, who re-
sides I'M this city and were as fol
lows:
Capt. John Ticknor, who commanded
company K, and led them as only
Ticknor could up the steep and stony
slope of South Mountain, saw Hunt
ley fight and fall and he said to me
with tears in his eyes, Il never saw
better work than old Huntley did"
At Gettysburg on July l, 1868, while
in command Of the company, and
leading it, as he always did, with the
utmost bravery, fell dead the gal
liant young Capt John Ticknor. Tick
nor was the beau ideal of a soldier
He was 6 feet tall, straight as an ar
row and very handsome man. His
| leadership was of that dashing kind
| that bears a resemblance to reckless
| ness, but is indeed soldierly devotion
of the highest type. At South Noun
tain, in command of a skirmish line,
driving the enemy up the mountain,
| Ticknor seemed to bear a charmed
| life. His tall figure dashing up the
slope, greeted by the cheers of old
company K, can never be forgotten
by the writer. He asked no man to
so where he did not lead. He fell
in the great decisive battle of the
war. leading in a charge that has Civ
en- his regiment proud place in his
| tory of the battle, and if he could hay'
chosen the place and manner to meet
the death of a soldier it would not
| have been otherwise.

WHAT II MEANS

How many people realize what the
granting of the petition for the WOOD
County Drainage District really
means? 1t means that $500 acres OF
land will soon be under cultivation
some of it this coming summer. With
an average yield to the value of $10
an acre, it would mean SIS, 1000 added
to the yearly income of Wood Coun-
ty and to Grand Rapids city in this
particular instance. Other districts
will be annexed or created in this

crease the output of this county.
