From Legislative Correspondence
to the Milwaukee Daily News
anuary 20.

y
The forestry reserve question is by
no means settled by the report Of the
speciai legislative committee which
has been filed with this legi stature.
The report does not satisfy a large
number of the opponents of the for
est reserve and Gov. hilipp is by no
means in accord with the proposition
in the report. The governor does not
believe the report solves the problem
and he is more in sympathy with
the proposition advanced by the resi-
dents of Northern Wisconsin which
advocates practically doing away with
| the forest reserve and the opening up
of all the lands to agriculture. Gov.
! Phillip does not want the question
Of forest reserve to be a state queS-
tion, but believes all forest reserve
measures should be federal laws and
that forest reserves should be under
federal direction.
The LaFollette wing of the legisla-
ture very generally is favorable to
the present demonstration policy and
they will undoubtedly press the rec
ommendation made in the report OF
the special legislative committee.
4 Both the forestry and the water
power control questions are in way
statewide issues. One hard fea-
1ure of these questions is that both
affect posterity more than they do the
present generation. The benefits of
boun if carried out upon the lines of
present policies will come to future
rather than to present generations in
tbs state,
Northern Wisconsin legislators have
tila more particular interest In both
Ga, s6ions. Many of the Northern Wis
cshsin members are giving both ques-
lions a great deal Of study.
There are no two questions, outside
Of the appropriations questions which
are attracting more attention so far in
the discussions of the new members
than are the re-forestation and water
power questions.

HISTORY OF THE GREAT ROUND
RIVER DRIVE, AFTER MANY

HISTORY OF THE GREAT ROUND
RIVER DRIVE, AFTER MANY
YEARS is CLEARLY AND TRUTH
FULLY RECORDED BY e. S. SHEP-
ARD, OF RE1INELANDER.
Last week A. Nc KenZie was with
quite lot of pride, passing around
among his good Democratic brethren
some literature written by, and sent
him by his old friend, Gene Shepard
of Rhinelander, the man who some
years ago brought the eyes of every
reading person the world over to TO-
Gus on northern Wisconsin, by reason
of his discovery of, and the subse-
Quent exploitation Of his now famous
Hodag. Mr., Shepard is also an illus
TRAITOR of more than local note. His
speciality being lifelike sketches of
Paul Bunyan, the man known to ey-
cry one who spent a winter log
ging or even made the drive down as
far as the DeIls at kilbourn. as the
man who cut and RATED more white
pine than any other logger Of the
OK team period In his latest work
Mr.. Shepard again pays tribute to his
old friend in verse entitled the Round
River Drive IN the spring OF 81 or %
The account OF the Drive is preced-
ed by a thrilling and realistic descrip-
ton of Bunyan's logging camp and
crew on Round River the winter be-
fore the big drive began. We have
shown the copy given us to al Brad
ford, Geo. O'Connor and lid Bill'
Tellefson all of whom were in the old
days familiar with every bend in the
river as far down as St. Louis. They
all read the account with much pleas
ure, as they distinctly remember the
Drive which attracted much atten
ton in Wisconsin Pineries at the
time. They all express wonder tho
that no mention is made Of Joe Muf-
erau, who was a still more noted man
in his line than Paul Bunyan. Joe
however was called back to Quebec
one winter to help settle his fathers
estate and they think perhaps that
was the winter the logging was done
on Round River.

| A lot OF opposition has developed
recently in regard TO the changes
made in the boundary lines Of the
Town of Eagle River, by the County
Board at meeting held last May,
and a protest meeting OF tax payers
concerned, is scheduled to take place
at the Town Hall tomorrow after
noon. We don't profess to know
whether the change was for the best
interests of all The people or not.
What we do believe, is that a queS-
tion of such Importance could have
very appropriately been taken up and
discussed at the annual Town meet
inc held some six weeks previous and
would have left a pleasanter taste in
the mouths of the people at large.
yZ Next Monday January 18th, is we
understand the date set for the Town
to formally take charge and posses
sion of the Electric Light & Water
plant in accordance with contract
entered into some years ago with ID.
r. Riordan, the owner of the plant at
the time the Town built the concrete
dam and power house at the connect
lnu point of the Wisconsin and Eagle
rivers some four miles below town,
and thereby secured control of the
headwaters of both streams, an
achievement that future defendants
will undoubtedly have much reason
to bless their long headed dads for
who have provided the direct source
of financial support to bring the feat
about, Although we have
NOT heard that there will be any
brass band effects to accompany the
transfer, the present municipal own
ership would be entirely justified in
holding a little mutual admiration
meeting among themselves for they
own plant that would stand the
test in town many times the size of
Eagle River while theregare but few
towns its size in. the u. S. that can
point with pride TO the public owner

Specials Are Appreciated

The project of giving Saturday
specials is proving to be very sat-
isfactory both to the patrons and
the merchants. Many people have
taken advantage of the liberal
prices being made by the Bedding
merchants and are saving money
in their purchases. Two weeks
ago E. E. Hudson had a phenomin-
al sale of flour. On the same day
Otto Hoyt and his clerks were busy
weighing sugar to customers to be
taken along with their other groc-
cries.
On last Saturday fruit cans were
literally purchased at price that
saved the customer money. Other
merchants had good success with
soaps, rubbers, etc. Scores of peo-
pie are talking about the excellent
trading opportunities offered by
this list of merchants, and are see
ing that it pays to supply their
wants in Belding.

Advance of "First chief'sp Forces De-

Washington, D. C.-Zapata forces
defending Mexico City have en-
gagged the attacking Carranza army in
a series of artillery duels and de-
layed it's advance.
No details were contained in the ad-
vices reaching here, which were the
first indications that the Carranza ad-
vance would be resisted.
Communication with Mexico City
has been cut off since June Is when
Gen. Gonzales, the Carranza COM
mander, cut the wires to Vera Cruz
at Otumba, rs miles east from the
capital. Consular advioes from Vera
Cruz said the wires were still down
and it still was improbable that com
munication would be restored before
the C~arranza forces entered the city.
Vera Cruz dispatches to the Car

every means to induce the Vilia-Iapa'

that circumstances stronger than

1.-THE press correspondent is assured

military authority, that September
quite possibly will see the Spanish
forces in the field on the side of the
allies.
Preparations on a large scale are
being carried on at the Trubla and
Oviede national gun factories, which
are working day and night, manufae-
turing guns, cannon, shell and other
war material. Uniforms also are be-
ing manufactured.

baker was found not guilty Of killing
George MeElheny, postmaster of
L%ouisburg, Kan, by a jury.
The postmaster was slain Oct 4,
