The county board of Douglas
county at a meeting held the
latter part of last week unani.
mously adopted a resolution of
Supervisor Jay of the town of
Brule making the south route
the highway which will connect
with the Bayfield.Superior road.
The road which will be built
follows the line of the Northern
Pacific railway to Brule.
The length of road to be build
by the Douglas county is about
twenty-five miles in length.
About ten miles Of this road will
have to be built new while old
grades and old roads will. be
used for the balance of the road.
The coanty Board of Bayfield,
county has adopted the Wash.
burn-Iron River route running
across the center of the county
as the route to be followed by
this county. 1t will connect
with the Douglas county road on
the Douglas county line west OF
Iron River.
It will take some three or four
years to build the road but when
it is completed it will give a
trunk line from Washburn to
Superior.

Primary House. at Blast
Furnace Burns
Man Killed by Peculiar Acct
dent While Watching
the Fire.

The primary house at the blast
furnace at Ashland was totally
destroyed by fire last Saturday morn
ing and for time it was feared that
the remainder of the plant would 60
but the flames were soon subdued
and only one building was destroyed.
An accident of peculiar nature
happened during the fire when Adam
Stenz, a prominent Ashland business
man was killed. Stem was watching
the fire and was leaning against his
bicycle. He suddenly fell to the
ground and was dead before anyone
reached his side. An examination
by doctors proved that his neck was
broken and he also received cut on
the jaw. Some are inclined to think
that there was an explosion and that
a missile hit Stem, knocking him over
when his neck was broken. At any
rate his death was very mysterious.

Trout Season is at Hand.

On April 18th the trout season
in Wisconsin opened and for
some time now local fishermen
have been busy looking over
their fishing rods, examining g
reels and testing lines and sort
ing flies to be in readiness for
the first warm weather when
they will hike to the streams to
try their luck.
Fishing will not be good in the
streams until after the snow
water gets out of the streams
and this may mean that it will
not be good until the latter part
of this month or the early part
Of May.
AS is usual at this time of the
year Sioux River is full of rain
bow trout and the local people
will have some sport in catching
these big fellows.

Under the above estimate it is
planned to dispense with the services
of the music and drawing teacher and
to double up on number OF other
teachers in the schools.
No amount is set aside for books
and it is proposed that the parents of
the children shall buy their text
books during the coming year. In
the grades this amounts to but
small amount for each child while
in the high school the amount is con-
siderable more.

Meeting to be Held at the
Commercial Club Saturday
Farmers Association Back OF
Proposition. All Farmers
Should Attend.

A big meeting for the farmers of
the Washburn district will be held at
the Commercial Club rooms in this
city on Saturday afternoon of this
week at which the question of buying
cows for the farmers will be discussed
and if it is found that enough of the
farmers are desirous of purchasing
more cows man will be sent down
to the older farming sections of the
state to purchase car load.
The Farmers Association is back
of the proposition and as we under
stand it the plan is to follow the Iron
River and Ashland idea, making the
cows pay for themselves.
Some time ago a meeting for this
purpose was held but on account of
the bad condition of the roads in the
farming section at that time but few
farmers were able to attend. 1t is

Will be Held Next Tuesday
Evening
A Number of Appointments
to be Made at This
Meeting.

The first meeting of the new coun-
Gil under Mayor Ted Bryan will be
held at the Commercial Club rooms
on Tuesday evening of next week
This council will be made up as
follows:
Fl. Johnson, Ed. White, III. H..
Peavey, Andrew Faulk, Albert Hol-
gren, Chas. P. Lysager, Andrew
Peterson, Ole Thoreson, r. A.
Herring, William Felix and Nick
Kurschner.
There is number of appointments
to be made at this meeting, among
them being city clerk, city attorney,
health officer, chief of the fire de-
partment, chief of police, sexton,
dumping ground master and janitor.
There is a number of men out for
these places and good sized scrap
will take place over some of the
appointments.
City finances will likely occupy the
attention of the council at this first
meeting.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1914-04-16

for this reason that the meeting is
being called at this time when farm
ers will be able to attend.
There is nothing that builds up a
country like good dairy cow and
every farmer residing i'll this section
should plan to increase his herd. II
this is done it will only be year be-
fore creamery can be started in this
section. With the creamery the
farmer is assured of pay day every
month regardless Of whether or not
his crops turn out successfully. The
dairy cow is necessary with every
branch of farming and we are glad to
see the Farmers Association take
this matter up for the benefit OF the
farmers of this region.

Madison Report Leads Peo-
pie to Believe Deal Has
Been Completed.

The following Madison dispatch
appeared in the daily papers the first
of the week:
Madison. Wis, April l1th. The
Wisconsin Telephone company was
given permission Friday morning to
move out of Ashland and turn over
it's property there to the Ashland
Telephone company. Under an adj
justment between the two companies
and approved by the state railroad
commission, the Bell company turns
over its exchanges and lines in the
city to the Ashland company and in
turn the Ashland company turns over
it's county lines, with exchanges at
Mellen and Washburn to the Bell
interests. The Ashland company
also gives the Wisconsin company
SIT, 500 in bonds and a similar a
mount of stock is also given the Bell
company, thus giving it voice in
the affairs of the Ashland corporation.
For some time there has been a
deal on between the Home Tele-
phone company and the Bell people
for an adjustment of their interests in
Bayfield, and Ashland counties and
the above report would lead us to
believe that some kind of deal is
now to be closed. If the report is
true the telephone interests here will
be turned over to the Bell people and
tileT viii have entire charge of the
easnp6rn exchange. This of course
will mean that they have to overhaul
and rebuild their system and make
other improvements in order to
handle the combined business.
The business people of Washburn
who have been compelled to have two
telephones will welcome the change
for it will cut down their telephone
expense to about half of the present
rates

Even at so early a date there
is some talk OF getting up a
rousing 4th of July celebration
for Washburn this year. Bust
ness men are all of one mind
that the city should hold a big
celebration. Bayfield, has agreed
to celebrate the day with us and
by planning early we can make
it one of the biggest celebrations
that has ever been held in the
city.

The City Council and
the School Levy

One Ot the important questions TO
come up before the new council al
It's meeting to be held on Tuesday
evening of next week will be the levy
for the schools of Washburn for the
year l914-19l5. For some time the
members of the school board have
realized that considerable cutting
must be done and with this end in
view the members of that body have
gone over matters carefully and have
at last arrived at their figures which
are used as a basis Of the estimate of
expense upon the levy is based.
These figures show that by the
closest economy in all departments
the levy this year can be cut nearly
FIVE thousand dollars under what it
was a year ago.
In arriving at their figures the
members of the school board have
taken into consideration the financial
condition of the city. They have
visited every department of the
public schools, have consulted with
the city superintendent, have held
numerous meetings at which the
subject has been fully discussed, and
it was not until after all of this had
been done that they were prepared
to take action and the report which
was acted upon unanimously at their
meeting last Saturday afternoon will
be presented to the council at the
next meeting.
The members of the school board
are all taxpayers who have the
interest of the city at heart the
board is composed Of a body of men
who are capable of acting fairly and
wisely on all questions of a public
nature.
Yet in the face of all this study
and though given the question of the
school levy by the members of the
school board we are informed that an
attempt will be made by one of the
two aldermen at the next council
meeting to have the council refuse to
accept these GgmE eas basis for the
school levy for tho coming year.
We are advised that these gentlemen
will ask the council to levy only
So, 900 for school purposes, little
more than half of what was levied
last year-an amount which will be
insufficient to run the schools on and
if this is done the school board will
be strictly up against it. The schools
will have to suffer as a result.
Are you as taxpayer willing that
your children's education should be
hampered by permitting the council
to pass such levy.
If not it will pay you to get in
touch with your alderman and advise
him to grant the levy as asked by the
school board.
There is need at the present time
for the strictest economy along all
lines but there is no need of striking
at the vital point, our schools, in
order to accomplish this. The school
board has done all the cutting it is
possible for them to do without
lowering the present standard OF the
schools.
Below we give the Recommendation
of the school board which will be
presented to the council. Thi:
Recommendation, of +ba 6oonoa o0po.
