HERE'S A RAY OF LIGHT:
CITY TAXES CUT DOWN
Council Asks for Much Less
Money Than Last Year.
Tax Levy will be for $16,788 This
Year; Was for S21,545 Last
Year. Don't Faint

An adjourned session of the re-
gular meeting of the city council was
held on Tuesday evening, Oct. 13.
Present, Mayor Bailie and aldermen
Lathrop, Croft, Wiedenbeck Austin
Richardson, Zeigler, Calvert and
Casper.
The treasurer's report was read
and approved. 1t showed a balance
on hand in the treasury of $1,000 ON
Oct. /.
Notwithstanding the city this year
loses $500 from it's revenues, be-
| cause the seven saloons which had
formerly contributed that amount for
licenses, were put out of business by
the voters at last springs elections,
the city fathers have so planned the
coming years business as to use
less money for street work and in
other customary ways and thus cut
down expenses to an extent that villa
lower this years tax levy 81, 757
below that of last year. A con-
siderable sum was used in extensive
repairs and improvements made at
the city pumping station this year
where practically none will be neces-
sary the coming year. The last water
works bond will be paid off this
year, and in other ways expenses can
be cut down. So for once in his life
the taxpayer can look at his tax
receipt and see that it is lower than
the year before. That is for local
taxes. It is to be hoped the shock
may not be greater than he can
stand.
Bills as audited by the finance COM
mittee were presented, allowed and
ordered paid.
Action upon removal of the oil
tank from the Geo. Muesse lot was,
upon motion, indefinitely postponed

SAYS BLAINE WOULD
SANDBAG HIS PARTY
independent Candidacy Attacked by
Progressive Leader Cady at
Green Bay.

Green Bay, Wis, Oct. To-
Business efficiency will be the
standard by which state employees
will be judged if l am elected to the
governorship, said E. L. Philip,
Republican candidate for governor,
at a harmony mass meeting" in
Turner hall here last night. About
600 were present.
eff employees in the service of the
state are efficient they will not be
molested and / can make this state
ment because | have made no pro-
misses to anybody and | have no
pledges to redeem.
F'An attempt to sandbag the Re-
publican party.
This is what Samuel H. Cady,
Progressive, thinks of the candidacy
of John G.. Blaine and he did not
hesitate to express his opinion, here
tonight. Mr.. Cady, long known as
a LaFollette man, presided at the
Philip mass meeting.
In view of my past record Of sup
port for progressive measures and
loyalty to Senator La Toilette, it
may occasion some comment that l
am presiding at this meeting tonight, -
he said:
1.-The answer is short; am 2
Republican; and Emanuel Philip
was honestly nominated by the Re-
publican party as it's candidate for
governor. There was no accident
about it. The people had the primary
law, including the second choice; to
now repudiate the choice of the people
as fairly expressed would be virtual
ly admitting that the primary cleo
tion law is a failure, and am not
yet ready to do that.
NO CHANCE FOR BLAINE
"On no theory is the candidacy of
John G.. Blaine defensible. There
was no particular demand for any in
dependent candidate and the public
seems to evidence little interest in
Mr.. Blaine's attempt to sandbag"
the Republican party for that is the
most that his candidacy can possibly
mean. John G. Blaine stands no
more chance of being. elected governor
of Wisconsin on Nov. 3, next than
the proverbial SNOWFALL in the hot
place. The only possible effect that
his candidacy can have would be to
secure enough votes from misinformed
voters to defeat the Republican
ticket. And / do not believe that
the voters of Wisconsin want to place
in office my old friend Likely
Karel, in preference to a man pos
sessed of the business sagacity,
mental grasp and personal character
of Enamel l.. Philip.
81, therefore, call on all faith
full, patriotic voters to 90 to the polls
on election day and vote the RepubIi-
can ticket straight from governor to
coroner. By so doing, your interests,
those of the state and nation will be
best served

BOSTON BRAVES WIN
WORLDS SERIES GAMES
Base Ball Championship Won in
Four Wonderful Consecutive Vic
tories Over the Athletics

Boston, Mass OcC. 10.-Ihe BoS-
ton National league completed the
most sensational record in modern
professional baseball by defeating the
Philadelphia Americans in the fourth
and final game of the worlds series
at Fenway park on Tuesday by a
score of to /.
Beginning with their rush from
last place in the senior league in the
middle of July the Braves have broken
traditions and records in the national
sport with speed and abandon during
the last three months. They emery
ed late Tuesday afternoon champions
of the universe, leaving trail of
startling surprises and upsets in
their wake which it will be hard to
duplicate in years to come.
Last but far from the least of
their accomplishments was the over
throw in four consecutive games of
the world famous baseball machine
of Connie Mack, with it's 100000
infeld, home run heroes and corps of
skillfuIly blended veteran and youth
full pitching stars.
CHAMPIONS CELEBRATE
Tuesday night the new champions
gathered under the management of
George Stallings are celebrating
their ascent to the championship
throne while the wreck of the
Athletics baseball juggernaut is
bound for the home of William Penn,
stunned and stupefied by the unlocked
for calamity which temporarily, at
least racked it to its smallest cog.
To the victors belong the spoils
and the credit, and unexpected as was
the crushing defeat, the Mack men
took it in sportsmanlike spirit, prais-
ing the winners and offering no ex
cuses for their failure to hold their
National league rivals in check. In
fact none are available, for the Bos-
tonians outplayed and outgamed their
more experienced opponents in every
game and department of play.
The best that could be said of the
Athletics by their warmest admirers
was that the team neither collectively
nor as individuals appeared to get 60
ing in the form shown in previous
worlds series.
ESTABLISH A RECORD.
To crush completely and decisively
the great combinatio which has rep
resentented Philadelphia in American
league in recent years is honor enough
for any rival baseball club, but the
Braves, in their youthful ardor and
speed, did even better, for they es
tablished new worlds series record
by winning in succession the four
games necessary to clinch the title.
Not since the national commission
assumed charge of these annual inter
league contests, in 1905, has this
feat been achieved until Tuesday
Several clubs have won four out of
five games, and in the early days of
the Temple cup and National league
VS.. American association, straight
victories were chroicled. In 1884
Providence defeated the Metropolitans
three straight.
For the total series of four games
the attendance was Ill, 009; the re
ceipts were 1926, 739; the players
share was $121, 9OO.94; the national
commissions share was $22, 673 and
clubs share $40, 632. So.
