Demands are Greater.
while it is true that the river
and harbor appropriation bill, which.
mas recently passed the House, is
larger than any similar annual bill,
still it must be remembered that the
country is growing and the demands
of commerce are greater than ever
before. 1t is not the amount of the
appropriation but the wisdom of the
appropriation which the public takes
into consideration. The people are
willing to spend any amount of money
so long as they get valuable returns
for such expenditure.
This great fact must not be lost
sight of, one of the very first purposes
for improving our rivers and harbors
is not only the carriage of commerce
by water but the reduction Of rail-
road rates that will result from this
water carriage. Water competition
is far more effective regulator of
freight rates than any statute law
Congress can place on the books.
Harbors Should be Deep.

cial ports should be deep enough to

CROWNED WITH SUCCESS
The Wausau Chautauqus Considered
Satisfactory Another Assured
for 1915.

In spite of the poorest weather,
rain on six out of eight days, cold,
mosquitoes, and following right upon
the heels of the spring social activities
the third annual Chautauqua may be
considered complete success, even if
according tosecretary A G. Schmidt's
report the dances sustained a loss of
about $4,000 A ChautauQua is not a
money making institution and should
not be considered as such. 1t has
higher purpose and if this object can
be accomplished at a loss of few
hundred annually it is indeed cheap
for the community The 1914 Chau-
tauqua did not only furnish a high
grade entertainment as its predecesS-
ors have done but has additionally
gone step further and actually
taught hundreds of our citizens how
to take care of their bodies and minds.
The lectures of the SadIers are of in
eStimable value to any community as
their work will continue for many
years.
The 1915 Chautauqua is assured and
will be held sometime in the latter
part of August. The weather has
become more settled by that time and
as most people will be back from their
vacation they will be hungry for the
intellectual treats offered by the pro-
gram and have their bodies sufficient
ly rested so that they can appreciate
and digest them. All our readers are
requested to begin to make prepare
tions for the next Chautauqua, even
now, so that social events may not
interfere and that vacations will be
arranged so as not to conflict with
the dates that will be in either the
second or third week in August.

A THRILLER AT MERRILL.

Duplicates of Wausau's races were
held in Merrill on July 5th. In the
three mile motorcycle race, Ted Deer
ing won first honors; Tony Fell, sec
ond; and George Dern, third. The
five mile motorcycle feature was big
thriller and nearly the cause of a
couple of deaths. Dern and Fehi
were coming down the home stretch
for the final lap. They were evenly
matched and we're tied, wheel for
wheel. At the right turn, Den's
machine hooked kehls front wheel,
as both machines were going good
mile a minute, Fehl was thrown
headlong from his fallen motorcycle
and Dern was also down. Fehl
turned for the fence to let Deering,
who was close behind, pass him.
Deering turned close and jumped
Fehl's machine. The crash that fol-
lowed nearly caused three deaths, but,
as it was, the drivers escaped with a
few cuts and bruises. Another thrill
went through the crowd as the big
National, an automobile driven by
Ed Gardner, turned turtle on bend.
The driver viii be all right in few

DEPARTED THIS LIFE.

Nicholas Healy, former we'll known
and prominent resident of Wausau,
died at his home in GlendiVe, Mont,
on July 3, 1914, aged 65 years.
mick Healy, as he was known all
along the Wisconsin river, came to
the pinery from his home in Green
Lake county in the early seventies,
making his headquarters in this city,
which was his home up to about ten
years ago, when he moved to Minnea-
polls and later to Glendiye.
In the early years Mr.. Healy fol
lowed the calling of a cook in the
logging camps, on the drive and on
lumber RATS He was of genial dis
POSITION and was well liked by all with
w4Om ne came in contact, and as a
result of this popularity he was NOM
mated on the democratic ticket as
sneritf of this county in 1886 and was
elected by handsome plurality. Fol
lowing his tenn of office as sheriff, he
served two years as underSheriff under
M. r.. Manson. In 1891 he was
appointed chief of police of this city
by the late r. E. Parcher, then mayor,
and served 5wo terms in this capacity.
Mr.. Healy was married in Wausau
about 27 years ago to Miss Kate Mel
laney, who survives him. as do also
three sons-Lee, Arthur and Bart,
and one daughter-Mis Alice; also
three brothers Daniel of this city,
Richard of Amigo and James Of
Racine. all meeting at St. Paul ard
leaving there for Glendive. 1t has
not been learned here yet whether
interment will take place at Glendive,
or WaUsau, it being understood that
before his demise MIR. Healy made a
request to have his remains brought
back 10 this city.
The last visit of Mr.. Healy to his
brothers and old friends in this yicin-
ity was last March. A that time he
realized that his hold on life was
growing short and that the malady
which terminated his life-cancer OF
the stomach-would soon lay him low /;
but at that he was cheerful and
appeared to enjoy his visit here, and
none bat his most intimate friends
had any intimation from him of any
trouble. Leaving here Mr.. Healy
went to Rochester, Mimi, hoping
that he might find relief through an
operation, but the surgeons there told
him that his trouble was too far aC-
vanced and advised him to go home.
Among his many old friends IN
Wausau, and along the Wisconsin
river the news Of Mr.. Healy's death
was received with genuine regret, for
he was richly endowed With those
sterling characteristics which win
and hold the admiration Of men. He
possessed in large degree the virtues
of the old pioneers, courage, true
manhood, a contempt for all things
undetermined or mean: sympathy
and understanding of the burdens
that sometimes weigh men down,
and more than that. ready hand 10
assist those who were struggling
against the current Of life. Quiet
and unobtrusiye he won the love and
respect of his felloE men. More than
that ne merited it all. What better
can be said of any man

pendence and eulogized the patriots
of l7I6. His address made profound
impression. The celebration ended
with fireworks and dance in the
pavilion.
PLEASED THE PEOPLE.
The Fourth of July Grafton at
Stratford, which was delivered by
Attorney John p Ford of Wausau,
was one OF the kind which sends the
patriotic blood tingling through the
veins OF the American citizens and
puts motion to the thinking appar-
atus of the foreigner, who has decided
TO forSake the bondage of his native
land and adopt the United States as
his home of the future.
Mr.. Ford began at the causes lead
ing up to the American Revolution
and in clear, distinct matter told of
the many struggles of the colonists
and their achievements He spoke
feelingly of the heroiSm OF the patri-
OTIS and the sacrifices they made that
they might become a free and indie
pendent nation The speech was a
brief recital of historical events but
it was given with the vim and elO-
quence which made it sink into the
receSSeS of the mind where il will in
future supply the spirit of patriotism.
1t was a speech which imbued the
youth with the hope of becoming
great and the old man with the pleas
ure of knowing he was living in a
land where energy, push and persever-
ance had accomplished great things.
Mr.. Ford while not stranger TO
the people of Stratford, made deep
and lasting impression on the people
Those who did not know him were
surprised at his easy yet emphatic
manner of putting forth the facts
and his manner of reciting the histor-
ical events of the country. These
events were blended with oratorical
flights which kept the audience on
tiptoe, and which made the flag fly
ing in the breeze look more sacred
than ever.
The speaker made many friends on
this occasion. His former friends
were pleased with the. brilliant ad.
dress and mis- many newly made
friends are pleased to have had the
opportunity of listening TO Fourth
of July grafton which will be remem-
bered as the country keeps going on
making history. / II. HIM.
