sixty feet the casing became
fast and when putting on the

burying them in che earth.

in removing them and in saving

was to abandon the hole and
start a new one. The well is
now down to a depth of bout
$50 feet and it is expected that
the we'll will be completed this

Neither Side is Growing
Very Loud
President Wilson Leads But Re-
turns from Two States Could
Change Results

President Woodrow Wilson,
democratic candidate, has in all
probability been reelected
President of the United States
BUT?
That is where the question
hinges. Democrats say he has.
Republicans say the result is
still uncertain and neither side
is doing any too much growing
over results for each hour may
tell another story.
The whole matter hinges on
two or three states from which
complete returns have not been
received. The most important
of these are Minnesota with IL
electoral votes and California
with 13,
When election returns began
coming in Tuesday night every
thing looked like Hughes and
the democats were sorry look
ing bunch. The next morning
told another story. Republicans
were feeling blue and Democrats
were wearing the smile.
But as the votes from the states
continued pouring in the result
would change first from one side
and then to the other, until this
afternoon when we go to press,
while it looks as if Wilson had
been reelected, yet there is an
uncertainty that California and
Minnesota may turn for Hughes
which would nominate the Re-
publican candidate.
Minnesota, which until yester-
day looked like a Wilson state
now gives Hughes a slight lead.
California appears to be leading
for Wilson.
The states which are still in
the doubtful column are Cali
fornia with s13 electoral votes,
Idaho 4, New Mexico 3, North
Dakota 5. Washington z and
West Virginia 8.
We believe that Wilson has
won but you can dope it out any
way that it may suit you until
final returns have come in.

wood ashes secured from the

and other outside points. Ship
ments come from all nearby
places.
The ashes are put in vats and
the potash is substracted in this
manner. Since the war began
the potash coming to this coun-
try from the European countries
was practically cut off and the
product from the plant in this

of Saturday evenings and pay

A movement having this oo-
iect in view was started by the
clerks some time ago but the
store owners have now taken
the matter up among themselves
with the result that early clos
ing will be put into practice
after the first of the year.
It is also said that the grocery
stores and meat markets of the
city are also considering a SINH.

is now in effect among the

first of the week.
There seems to be a shortage

Many Hunters Will Invade
Woods of Bayfield, County
Law Remains the Same as
Last Year Permitting Kill
ing of Male Deer

For the last twenty days Of
November people residing in the
rural sections of the northern
part of the state will be given
some idea of what a lombard
ment sounds like for the open
season for the hunting of deer
will be on at that time.
Up to the present time more
than fifteen hundred licenses
have been issued in Bayfield,
county alone, while adjoining
counties report about a like num-
Der. Then in addition to the
above numbers there will be
hundreds of hunters coming in
from other counties to hunt in
Bayfield, county woods and it is
safe to say that from three to
four thousand hunters will be
in the woods during the hunting
season.
The law in regard to the hunt
ing of deer remains the same
this year as last. Hunters are
permitted to kill only one male
deer. 1t is unlawful to shoot
deer after nightfall or before
sunrise and it is also unlawful to
kill deer while in the waters of
or upon the ice of a lake. 1t is
unlawful to have dogs around
hunting camps during the open
season.
Many local hunters have al
ready gone to the woods and
hundreds will leave on Saturday
to remain in the woods for some
time.
Hunters going into the woods
this season should use the ut
most precautions in the woods
in order to prevent accidents
which usually occur through
carelessness. Don your cloth
ing with red colors SO that it
will be impossible to be mis-
taken for deer or other wild
ami mails and use precaution
around the hunting camps.

their stand for the Democratic
party.

would indicate that there were

FINISH PAVING
ABOUT NOV. 18TH
Cement Work Has Been
Completed
Crew Now Engaged in Lay
ing Brick and Putting
in Grout Filler.

With any kind of favorable
weather the paving being done
in this city will be finished some
time the latter part of next
week.
The laying Of the concrete
base was finished some few days
ago and all the crew of work
men are now engaged in laying
the brick and putting on the
grout filler. The brick work is
now nearing the Washington
avenue intersection and the
grout filler has been put on for
a distance of about four blocks.
Traffic on the street where the
grout filler was laid last week
will be opened up the latter part
of this week and other blocks
Will be opened up as early as
possible.
The work of widening the
sidewalks out to the new curb
will not be attempted this fall
but this work will be done as
soon as spring opens up.
With the paving completed
and the walks widened and the
new white way lighting system
and the telephone and light
poles removed, Washburn will
have as pretty a street as is to
be found in any city in this Sec
tion of the state.

Hunters Want Fall of Snow

Unless snow and colder
weather comes before Saturday,
when tie open season for deer
is booked to begin it is probable
that many Washburn nimrOds.
planned on being in the timber
for the first day s shooting, will
probably postpone their visit to
the forest until little later in
the month.
With the mercury at it's pre-
sent high registration it would
be next to impossible to get
venison out of the woods before
it would be spoiled. Without
snow to track wounded animals
and to alley the cracking of the
wigs and dead branches of trees
that would be broken under the
hunters feet in his tramp over
the trails, it would be difficult
to get within shooting distance
of the deer. 1t is allowed by
all hunters of experience that
snow and colder weather will
have to come before there will
be any good hunting weather.
Many local nimrods, as well
as hunters from Chicago, Mil
waukee and other cities in the
southern part of the state have
their guns, ammunition, testing
outfits and everything else
essential to a successful invasion
of the big game retreats in
readiness. 1t is further pro-
bable that the hunters from fur
ther south are of the belief that
there is an abundance of cold
weather up in the Lake Super ior
country, and unless they are
otherwise advised will come
north ready to go into the woods
on Saturday.
If the weather turns favorable
for hunting there will be large
mum ber of deer killed in the
woods OF upper Wisconsin this
fall. 1t is reported that the
deer are plentiful in many
localities.
