KILLED IN AUTO
MOBILE ACCIDENT
Machine Turns Turtle on
BeSSemer Road We'd
neSday Night.

In serious automobile accident
on the new road from Ironwood to
Bessemer Wednesday night Fred
Swanson, of Bessemer, received
injuries which caused almost
instant death.
The accident happened some
time between eleven and twelve
O'Clock Wednesday night. A
party of five young men from Bes-
semer were out for a spin IN Arthur
Rund's FIVE passenger car. They
left Bessemer in the early part of
the evening and drove to Hurley
and Ironwood, spending some time
at both places. About II o'clock
they started on the return trip to
Bessemer and when some distance
out of Ironwood and near the Reno
location the car went into the
ditch, turned turtle and spilled the
occupants, Swanson being fatally
injured while his companions were
badly shaken up, one of them re-
ceving severe bruises. The owner
of the car, Arthur Rund, was driv-
ing at the time, and the accident
was probably the result of too
much speed, mania which proves
disastrous on a good many occa-
sions, especially when driving at
night.
The young man who so sudden
ly met his death was % years of
age and for the past three months
had been employed as a meat cut
ter in Rund S meat market at Bes-
semer. His home was at Rhine
lander and Thursday evening the
remains were shipped there and
will be buried tomorrow.

Although Wisconsin ranks a.
mong the leading live stock states
of the Union, a campaign is being
carried on to encourage the raising
of still more and better live stock
on the farms of this state.
Realizing that conditions in
northern Wisconsin are ideal for
the raising of high producing and
otherwise superior farm animals,
the officials OF various agricultural
boards and organizations are CO
operating with the officers of the
Wisconsin Live Stock Breeders
Association in a state wide effort
to increase the production of the
herds and flocks in Wisconsin.
One of the first things to be in
cluded in this campaign of inn
provement, will be the operation of
a More and Better Live Stock
Special" over certain of the North
western and Green Bay and Wes-
tern lines in eighteen counties in
central and northern Wisconsin.
On this train will be carried typi-
cal representatives Of the various
classes of live stock raised in Wis
consin. These will be exhibited at
each stop, and demonstrations will
be given showing the difference be
tween profitable and Improbable
types and the advantages of raising
bred for production animals.
According to the schedule stop
will be made at Saxon in the after
noon of June l

A 60-cent per ton cut i'll the
price of Lake Superior iron ore
was announced today Word was
received from the east that the big
manufacturing interests had made
that rate.
Today's cut brings the price of
ore down to point 10 cents below
the 1912 basis, and nearly back to
the 1911 price. There was a raise
in the price of ore for 1913 deliv-
cry amounting to so cents per ton,
which price has been since main
tanned until today's cut was an
nouuced.
As a result of the reduction in
price ore will now bring s. 80 per
ton. As ore costs the mine $3.50
at the docks, there remains but 80
cents profit to the producer. No
official statement was made as to
the reason for the cut but it IS be
1ieved that a lack Of orders for both
the raw and 6nished product gov

What is a democracy? a democ-

Revolutionary War Records.

The United States Govern
ment desires to ascertain the
whereabouts of all original
records, both military and
naval, relating to the American
Revolutionary War, 1875 TO 1898.
This is matter of great i'm
portance to historical students,
librarians, institutions of learn
ing, patriotic societies, and all
persons interested in their
country's struggle for indepen-
dence.
1t is believed that many such
records are in the hands of
private owners as well as in
official archives and libraries.
1t is not desired to purchase
these papers, but to obtain n
complete list of them and their
location, with n view to publ
cation. Information in regard
to all such papers will help
complete the record ofVirginia's
part in the Revolution.
The task of gathering this
information in Virginia has
been placed in the hands of Mr..
Morgan p. Robinson, of Rich
mond, and Mr.. J II. Lindsay I,
of Charlottesville.
All persons having knowl-
edge of the existence of such
records are requested to write
