NOTHING succeeds like success.
This is just as true with cities as it is
with individuals for there is no one
that has good word for dead
town while everyone falls over him.
self to put in good word for live
place.
This has been especially true with
Washburn. 1t is not so very many
years ago when every travelling man
on the road and even some OF our
own people were complaining about
Washburn and knocking the city at
every opportunity. But how differ
ent it is today. Washburn is now
known the country over as being one
of the liveliest cities in the North
west. Everybody has good WORD
for it and some of the travelling men
who were its worst knockers are now
calling upon the trade here and do
ing everything in their power to
boost the city.
The Ashland Press has suggested
the names of A. III. Wilkinson OF
Bayfield, for State Senator from this
district and H. HI. Peavey as mem
Der of the Assembly. During the
absence of John c. Chapple the
Press also mentioned the name OF
Mr.. Chapple for Assemblyman from
Ashland county.
There is no doubt that this trio
would make a live bunch of boosters
for Northern Wisconsin and that this
part of the state would be well repre-
sented. The names are worth con-
sidering.

FISHING SEASON NEARS END.
Catch of Shad and Herring Already
Is Falling Off.

Though the fishing season on the Po-
tomac will not close legally until June
10, after which day it is misdemeanor
to bring shad or herring into the Dis
trict of Columbia, the season rapidly
is being brought to an end by a heavy
fall-off in the catch Of the fish. The
catch has become so small as to be
improbable for the haul seines. and
the last haul of that at Chapmans
point was made Sunday.
This was the last of the haul-seine
shores to operate. the others having
cut out week or two before. The
power boat Juanita. the last run boat
bringing shad and herring here. made
her last trip to this market Monday
and has gone to her home port to
take up other work. Until the close of
the time in which shad and herring
can be sold on the market here the
gillnet fishermen will continue to drift
their nets, so that there will be an
ample supply of the fish on the market.
While the fish have in a large meas
ure disappeared from the river below
Alexandria, they are reported plentiful
in the river about this city, but Dis
trict waters are closed for fishermen.
and. while they may look longingly at
the fine fishing grounds, to put a net
overheard in District waters invites a
heavy fine and a prison sentence.

Dandelions

Upon my lawn, | know not
why, the dande1ions thrive; the
grass may all curl up and die,
but they'll remain alive. I've
tried about a million plans, to
have the vile things slain: and al!
the schemes were also-rans, and
all my efforts vain. The fair
petunias that I bought, at fabu-
lous expense; the sweet begonias
that I brought and planted by
the fence: the tulips from the
Netherlands, they all have died
the death, but still the dandelion
stands, dishguring the heath. NJ
vine and hgtree withered are, the
rosebush passed away. the fern
that grew in yonder jar shows
symptoms of decay; the lilac,
when the nights were cold. turned
up its tender toes, and still the
dandelion bold its streak of yell
low shows. If dandelions were
desired, if they would bring in
mon, if every gardener aspired to
raise them by the ton, they'd
make a speciality of death. they'd
languish from their birth. and
shrivel at the slightest breath, and
perish from the earth.

NOT AUTHORIZED BY LAW.

trict for Sewer Construction.

Galen l. TAFT has been awarded a YER
dict for s99s.53 by a jury in Circuit
Division before Justice Gould against
the District of Columbia for taxes paid
under protest for constructing sewer

suburbs. The question involved was the
construction of an act OF Congress

of 1904.
Justice Gould instructed the jury that
the plaintiff was entitled to recover on
the ground that the acts of Congress
taken together did not authorize the
imposition of the tax.
Attorney John Ridout represented the
plaintiff while Assistant Corporation
Counsel Williams appeared for the Dis
trict.

PROPER PREPARATION
OF LUNCHES IS URGED
Miss Caroline Hunt Cites Best Food
for Children Before Moth.
ers' Congress.

The importance of seeing that
child's school lunch is properly pre-
pared was told to members of the Dis
trict of Columbia Congress of Mothers
and Parent-Teachers' Association at
the closing meeting of the season yes
terday afternoon at the Raleigh Hotel
by Miss Caroline Hunt of the home
economics bureau of the Department
of Agriculture.
Miss Hunt had for her subject Food
for Children She told the members
that the child ought to be taught that
the lunch should be kept clean, and
that they should have clean hands be-
fore they attempt to eat the lunch.
The speaker told of the five groups of
varieties in which foods are classed,
and said that liquid foods are the most
important for children. Milk, she
stated. was the most valuable for
child.
Following the lecture. several moth
ers asked questions as to what they
should feed their children.
Defends Forum Movement.
Allan Davis, principal Of the Bust
ness High School. also addressed the
meeting ne CeIenQeQ the unity
forum movement. He said that there
are some people who are fighting the
proposed bill because it gives the use
of school building on Sunday. The
speaker called attention to the fact
that there are some employees of the
navy yard. for instance, who might
want to attend a lecture in chemistry
on a Sunday. and declared that it was
no worse to attend such lecture than
it is to go to the Public Library on Sun
day to read book on chemistry He
declared the forum question is one of
the broadcast expressions of true dem
ocracy.
Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter. the presi-
dent, scored the 10 cents a lesson"
language classes which she said are
being conducted at night in some of
the schools. Il have heard directly and
indirectly that a number Of teachers
who have spent much time in prepar-
ing themselves to teach languages who
generally receive so cents a lesson hav-
ing to quit as these night school classes
run them out of business"
Mrs. Rafter declared it is not good
democracy and is unfair to the teachers
who are working for their living on the
outside of the public schools.
