THE BIG newspaper plant of the
Superior Telegram was completely
destroyed by fire on Sunday but the
paper appeared as usual on Monday
due to the offer of the Duluth papers
to publish the paper until such time
as new plant could be installed.
The Telegram plant was one of
the best equipped in the state and it
will not be long until the hustling
management has things operating
again as usual.
The Telegram people have our
sympathy over their great financial
loss but we feel that they will not
let the fire hinder them continuing
to give the people of North Wiscon-
sin first class daily and that the
fire will only make them stronger
and better than ever.

TO PREVENT ILLNESS.
That Is One of the Objects of Compul-
sorry Health Insurance.

sorry Health insurance.
Compulsory health insurance Is now
being talked of as another step in COM
munity welfare, the course being eSpe-
cially recommended in welfare work
among wage earners.
Investigation has shown that large
proportion Of sickness is preventable,
but most persons, small wage earners
or not, are likely to neglect their all
ments until prevention is no longer
possible and serious illness must be
treated Even then the doctors serv-
ices are avoided as much as possible
because of the cost, and the victim of
disease goes back to his work before
he is fit.
Under the compulsory insurance sys-
tenn it is the idea that every worker
shall be visited at stated intervals by
a physician whether he is ill or not;
the slightest illness brings call from
the doctor, whose business is to keep
him well if possible. In many cases he
will succeed, with the result of great
saving of time and wages to the worker.
The total of such savings in the in
dustrial Centers will run into the mil
lions and will Croportionately lessen
the demands on charitable funds.-In-
dianapOlis Star.

business and industry and finance at
the close of the war to be done.

The boys between 81 and so will
join the colors next month. They
will be doing their part, and God
may will that they will be returned
to our firesides and homes safe and
sound. This outcome is not inviting
to ponder over, but while they are
away, we owe it to them, to keep up
business and industry-those of us
who stay at home, so that when
peace comes and they return to us,
if they do, they will find country
prosperous and places for them to
step into. 1t is wrong, damnably
wrong, for men to take up the cry
of the country is going to the
dogs" for this breeds panic and dis
content and unsettled business con-
ditions.

. 1t is out of our hands to regulate
these traitors to the nation who con-
tinue to speculate in foodstuffs. If
congress is sincere, the matter will
be ended by legislation. Of course
we all know that no foreign foe can
be such an enemy to this country as
the food speculator, for the foreign
foe is out in the open, arrayed
against us and we know where to
strike him. The food Spectator
works in the dark, under cover and
is hard to locate. But way will
come to abolish this crime. Until
then, it will work more hardship,
more suffering and perhaps in the
long winter to come more deaths by
starvation, than the enemy will
work against our boys on the battle
line. Every citizen of Washburn
should write his congressman and
senators asking that they vote to
stop specializing in food by these
traitors within the land.

GOVERNOR Phillip has used the
power of his veto and has thus de-
feated the people of Wisconsin of an
opportunity to vote upon the state
wide prohibition bill. He has given
his reasons, and the main one seems
to be that the breweries of Milwau.
kee would be prohibited from manu-
featuring their products in the state
for shipment abroad, thereby throw
ing a number of Milwaukee men out
of employment.
The Governor asked the Legis-
lature to recall the bill and thus re-
move this objectional feature and
other features which he did not like.
From the statement by Mr.. Phillip
it is apparent that he believes in the
sale of beer and light wines, but is
against prohibition, and therefore
the people of Wisconsin will not be
allowed to express their will in this
matter.
This is not the first time in his
tory of the states of this union that
the dry forces have been cheated,
out of their privilege but it has only
resulted in making more of them de-
termined than ever and when the
time does come they will make their
weight count against the liquor
traffic.
Ii the brewers of Wisconsin are so
sure that Wisconsin would not so
dry if the people had right to ex-
press their will, why then do they
attempt to deny them of the right
of vote.

THE EMERGENCY SHELF.
Simple Remedies That Should Be at
Hand In Every Home.


Hand In Every Home.
Gasoline is a good disinfectant for
the treat ment of wounds in emergency
cases. 1t is especially good if the
wound is lacerated or if the skin was
dirty when the wound was made. Aft
er washing the wound with gasoline
paint with a tincture Of iodine, using
a small wad of absorbent cotton for
the iodine paint brush"
Every family should have a supply
of emergency remedies at hand, and a
physician suggests this list for the
home medicine shelf:
Two ounce bottle Of aromatic spirits
of ammonia, a good stimulant in case
of fainting-uSe as an Inhalation or

There are sentimenthlists who
confuse patriotism with crepe
hanging. They would turn the
churches into houses of mourning,
they would rend the hearts of the
school children with silly talks and
lessons upon the horror of war, they
would curtail business, taboo amuse-
ments and make this land a land OF
mourning. No real man or woman
carry their feelings upon their
sleeves. We have maintained that
it is horrible enough to know that
the youth of this country is to be
bled white and many OF us give
more serious thought to this than
chose who talk the loudest. But,
the die is cast, the command has
gone forth, and now it is for us who
remain at home to do our duty and
to do it nobly, bravely, without
leyity and without hysterical
whining.

Why Liberty Loan"

The $1,000, 100000 bond issue
of this year is named "The Lib
erty Loan of 1917" because it is
to be a loan from a free people
to be used in freeing the world.
1t is the loan of a liberty-lov-
ing people to be devoted to the
establishment of liberty in
Europe and on the high seas.
1t is the loan of the great
democracy of the New World to
redress the wrongs and support
the cause of the democracy of
the Old.

We can take this slogan home to
ourselves here in Washburn. That
the city and Bayfield, county has
responded to their fullest power to
the call of the government, is
evidenced on every side. Never
were SO many acres under cultivation.
Town lots, garden plots and neigh
boring tracts of land, as well as the
larger farms, are being plowed,
seeded and planted, SO that when
the harvest comes, we will be ready.
Washburn has furnished her quota
already. and more will respond to
the colors--either with the proposed
new national guard company or the
army and navy on registration day
we are not tagging in either our in
dustrial duty or our duty to the
colors.

Business as Usual"-is the slo-
gan and watchward of the United
States today. War is grim, terrible
and devastating. No one would
deny that. But as war may destroy,
so must we build, that the current
of destruction may be offset and
stemmed. The word has gone forth
that those who are left at home,
must do their bit," and no better
way to begin can be devised, than in
keeping business up to the usual
standard. The releasing OF millions
upon millions of dollars in circulation
in the States, cannot but stimulate
business and all activities.
