MAY PUT IN A
BIG STEEL BRIDGE
Over Sioux River on -Four
Mile Greek Road.
Special Meeting of County
Board Called For Next
Wednesday.

The big wooden bridge over Sioux
River on the Four Mile Greek road
is out OF commission and has been
condemned by the road committee of
the county board. The committee is
up against the proposition OF repair
ing the old bridge at the present
time or putting in new steel bridge
tc take it's place and the committee
are unanimous in favor Of putting in
steel span, believing it to be a
waste of money to repair the old
bridge which has been in commission
for twelve years. The job is big
one and a special meeting of the
county board has been called by
Chairman Robinson for next Wed
nesday at which time the question
will be settled. The county board
members will be taken to the bridge
in automobiles and after they return
again they will be better able to act.
When the board met last week it
was thought that the bridge could
be easily repaired but since then it
has been learned that the bridge is
in bad condition. 1t is useless to ex
pend money trying to repair the
bridge for what money is put into
it now will be wasted for the bridge
will have to be practically rebuilt at
big cost. The better plan would
be to put in the steel bridge at once.
The old bridge crosses the river
some distance from the line and
there is some talk now of cutting
down the hills on both sides of the
river and putting the new bridge
straight across the stream on the
section line. This would eliminate
the bad hills now used and should be
done by the board if the cost is not
prohibitive. There is much traffic
over this road and straight. even
grade means much to the farmers
living in that section.

CLOVER PUTS QuACK
GRASS ON THE RUN
D. M. Maxcy of This City
Demonstrating That Glover
Will Route it.

article to the eject that d. M.
Maxcy of this city had a field in
which clover was actually routing out
the quack grass and that it would
only be the course of few years UNI
til the quack grass would be entirely
gone. The statement was made
after viewing the field after the grass
was cut but many were inclined to
take the statement with a grain of
salt and In every case we would re-
fer them to Mr.. Maxcy and he was
perfectly willing to back us up in the
statement. We were both accused
Of being cheerful prevaricators" but
nevertheless we stuck by our guns
and claimed that what we had stated
was actually happening.
This season Mr.. Maxcy is able to
prove to the doubling Thomases"
that what this paper stated a year
ago is absolutely true and that clover
will actually do the business.
At this time we might give little
history Of this field in which the
wonderful is happening. This field
is located right in the heart of the
city between the Bayfield, County
Bank and the Hotel Washburn. 1t
is patch containing between one and
two acres of ground and was for 9
time used for truck gardening. Dur
ing the time it was used for garden
ing the field was heavily MANFRED
with green manure and this is where
the quack grass came from. The
grass became so plentiful in the field
that it was considered valueless for
farming purposes and Mr.. Maxcy
determined right then that he would
let it work out its own salvation.
The first season a wonderful crop
of quack grass was grown and many
thought that Mr.. Maxcy should have
been arrested for permitting the
weed to grow right in the heart OF
the city. But he was careful to pro-
hibit the weed from going to seed
and cut the field before seeding time,
while the grass was young, and the
same was fed to cattle when it had
been cured properly. Mr.. Maxcy
stated to the writer that the cattle
would leave the baled hay to feed on
the tender quack grass and they
seemed to enjoy the feed.
The second season clover began to
appear in the patch, despite the
heavy growth of the quack grass.
The clover seed was blown in by the
winds and it Immediately took root
and thrived. Care has always been
used in cutting the grass before the
first crop of quack grass went to
seed.
Last year was the second season
after the clover began to make its
appearance and when the field was
cut the clover was half of the crop.
The clover has thrived wonderfully
during the past year and this season
over three fourths of the hay cut
from the field is clover. At the rate
it is going it will be only one or two
years more until the clover will have
the quack grass entirely routed from
the field.

APPROPRIATION
 BILL WAS KILLED
VETO OF THE PRESIDENT LEFT HOT SPRINGS IMPROVEMENTS
 FURTHER POSTPONED.
Movement Will Be lnaugurated I'm medateIy, However, to Get Item Through When Congress
 Meets in April.

The $237000 covered in the civil sundry appropriations bill in congress for drainage system for this reserva. ton, died with the death of the re. publican congress and republican ad- ministration.
 There had been fear that the bill would not get through ill the closing hours of congress. but no definite in formation was received on the sub ject here until yesterday when it was learned that the bill in which the Hot brings reservation item appeareG had met defeat
 There will immediately be inaugur- ated movement to have the item covered in the next appropriations oill before the special session Of coa- gress in April. and the original ap- propriation of s335.0 will probably be insisted on in that new measure
 It is not doubted that Hot Springs will get more recognition in the con. gress of the next four years than # aas received in all it's past history The reservations of the whole of the country have been built up as a rule in the past with the single exception )f the government property here, which has had it's meagre improve nents confined to the surplus income of the resort after the running ex- penses have been charged against the account received by the government rom privileges here.
 The bill that was killed carried an appropriation of $237 ,000 and had the approval Of the secretary of the in terior. the senate committee whicn investigated the item the senate vote which favored the appropriation, and the house vote, which maintained the tenn, but because of objections to some of the large items covered in he same bill, the measure met with veto.

 THE GRAND JURY
WITN-~ SEES BEFORE COMMITTEE DID NOT SECURE IMMUNITY
 FROM PROSECUTION.

New York, March 5.~-The testimony i'll the hearings at Albany in the al- legged bribery scandal growing out of the reported move made last win ter to obtain tine release of Harry K.

IN DEFENSE OF
 HARVESTER TRUST
GOOD WHlSkEY OFTEN FIGURED LARGELY IN THE SALE OF
 FARM MACHINERY.

Omaha, Neb., March 5.-The sale of a binder or mower often de- bends on the brand of whskey you use, according to NJ. M. Ford, of Nashville, Neb., who was one of the witnesses who testified today before Special Examiner Robert S. Taylor when the international Harvester Company began it's defense in the government suit against 1t charging violation the Sherman antitrust law.
 Ford who is an implement dealer in his home town, like half a dozen oth- CTS, declared the International com pany had not used coercion to force him to sell that company's lines exclusively. The local dealer, lhe declared who made the sales, was the man who slowed himself to be a good fellow' and that so long as his goods were standard he was able to swing the business.
 The defense generally sought to show that there had been a great in Harvester machines, with corresponding benefits to the farmers while the government at torneys satisfied themselves with showing that the International com 'pany was selling S5 to o per cent oS the output of the harvester machines

women Claim Police Refused to Aid Them or to Hold Back the
 Drunken Crowds.

Washington, March 5--Aroused over the failure of the Washington police department to maintain order during the progress of the suffrage pageant of March ,, the senate today began an investigation to place the responsibility for the lack of pro tection for the women marchers, The investigation is result of a joint resolution of congress. directing the police department to furnish protec- tion to the suffragists
 Acting under resolution adopted just before the senate adjourned Monday. Senator Gallinger, the retiT ing chairman of the District Of Colum bia committee named Senator Jones Dillingham; and Pomerene, as an iii. vestigating committee.
 At a meeting today the committed determined to begin hearings at lao o'clock tomorrow Major Sylvester superintendent of police. probably will be one of the first witnesses call ed. It is the plan of the committee to examine a number of persons to de termine accurately the attitude of the police toward the suffrage march CTS, and the character of protection given
 Superintendent of Police Sylvester said today, that the department can. not be blamed for the failure to pre- serve order. He said the police force was inadequate to meet the situation that confronted it, requiring the guarding the suffrage line of march and handling the arrival of President Wilson at the same time. His re- quests for more men, he added, have been unheeded by congress, for the last five or six years.
 The fact that so many members O congress are from suffrage states, is counted upon by the women to aid them in punishing those responsible for the indignties they say they were compelled to suffer at the hands of intoxicated and ruffianly men, They are making every effort to obtain as much evidence as possible to present to the committee. At the suffrage headuuarters and to Represt ntative Hobson of Alabama, many women, as well as men volunteered to make afii- davits or left their names and address ses so they might be called as wit nesses.
 Gen. Anson Mills. U s. A. retired and Read Admiral Wainwright and Mrs. Wainwright and Miss Sophy stanton, grand daughter of Lincoln's secretary of war. are among those who are said to have submitted evil dence of indifference on the part Of the police.
 Miss Alice Paul, chairman of the congressional committee of the Ma tional Suffrage organization has taken personal charge of the work of push ing the investigation She declares she already has obtained conclusive evidence regarding more than fifty policemen who refused to keep back the crowds along Pennsylvania ave- nue.
