There are a lot of highway cross
ings in Rusk county where guide
boards are not provided as they
should be and, inasmuch as a state
law makes it mandatory upon town
boards to provide such conveniences
for the travelling public on or be-
fore Dec. 1, 1918, the town officials
should see that the provisions of the
law are carried out. The law is as
follows:
"The town board of each town in
the state of Wisconsin shall cause
to be erected before the first day Of
December, 1913, and be kept in good
repair suitable and appropriate guide
boards on and along all main travel
ed public highways where the same
intersect with other main public high
ways within their respective towns.
The expense of the erection and
keeping in repair of all such guide
boards shall be paid out of the treas
ury of such towns
The law is an excellent one and
should be complied with without de-
lay.

Kaiser Wilhelm Seeks to Curb Drink
Reports from Germany indicate
that the Kaiser is making plans look
ing toward the attempted regulation
of the liquor traffic in the Father
land. According to a special cablegram
from Berlin to the Chicago Tribune,
DR.. Delbrinck, the Secretary of the
Interior, on instructions from the
Kaiser, is sounding the governments
of the German states on the advis-
ability of enacting a law regulating
the sale of liquors.
1T is believed" says the Tribune
that Delbrinck's ac-
ton, which will affect one of the
largest industries in the country, is
due directly to the initiative of the
Kaiser, who is now practically tee
totaler, and who, it is said. believes
the race for future greatness and DOM
nance in the world will go to the
nation which is mentally the clear
est and physically the strongest"
While any steps taken to impose
restrictive measures on the traffic
in drink in GERMANY is an advance
movement, it is hoped that Kaiser
will study the disappointing
results of the Gothenburg system in
Sweden and, in the words of the
Swedish Premier, Mr.. X. Staff, "hold
ON to the great aim, national tenn
perance--national prohibition.

When F. w. Sackett, of Sackett
Bros. publishers of the Phillips
Times, stepped out Of the harness
recently, it marked the departure
from the journalistic field of upper
Wisconsin of one who was no doubt
it's dean, for F. w. has a record Of
81 years of continuous service in the
newspaper business in Price county.
Mr.. Sackett came to Price county in
1876 with the very advance guard Of
the forces of development and has
ever since labored indefatigably for
the advancement of his county. The
business will be continued by the
junior member of the firm, George
Sackett. 1t is with a feeling Of no
little regret that We note the with
drawal of Brother F. W., but he has
certainly been in the harness long
enough to be entitled at least to a
furlough.

Nickel a By-Product

There are no producing nickel
mines in the United States. The
output of nickel from domestic ores
is merely a by-product from electrol-
ytes of the copper refineries. Salts
and metal equivalent to 1928 short
tons of metallic nickel were saved
in domestic refineries in 1912 from
both foreign and domestic ores. Nick

Even though crude oil and gasoline
are being largely. substituted for coal
as source of power in Seward
Peninsula, Alaska, 16, 405 tons of coal
were imported in 1912. In spite of
Alaska's great coal resources, not
over 200 tons were mined in the en-
tire territory in 1912. Alaska is sad
to mine her own coal under adequate
terms.
