ELECTION FOR A MUNICIPAL
LIGHTING PLANT

The best way to settle question,
such as is presented by the lighting
situation in Ladysmith. is to let the
people who will foot the bills, decide.
Therefore we believe that municipal
election. where the question can be
Squarely put before the people, as to
whether or not the city shall go into
the business of furnishing light and
power, will he the only way that it
can be satisfactorily concluded. No
one seems to be satisfied with the
present conditions. Ladysmith is
growing with rapid strides and her
growth i'll population now is only re-
tarded by lack of housing facilities
for the people who want to come here
hut who can find no place to stay. 1t
will take great investment of the
peoples money providing the plant is
taken over and then Il constant watch
ing of every corner to make ends meet
in its operation.
If it is the will of the people that
the city buy the plant, then lets buy it.
Not all privately owned electric
light and power plants pay; not many
municipal plants pay. Both depend
largely on the individuality and per-
sonnet of the management. 1t is alb
surd to say that light prices are too
high and then go out and vote for TAX
ing over plant with no view to the
hundred of details to be considered.
The plant itself is nothing; just a
beginning But after one buys an ele,
phant. the brute must be fed. What
will we feed him on? How much will

ASK VOLUNTEERS
FOR WACO FORCES
More Men Required to Fill Guard
Regiments in the Sunny
South Camp

Wisconsin wants 1900 volunteers
from the men registered in the draft
to fill the regiments at Waco up to
full strength. All men who enlist in
this way will be credited to the coun-
ty on the next draft. County Clerk
MunrOe who is also secretary of the
Exemption Board, of Rusk county, can
take enlistments. The volunteer army
goes even farther than the draft regu-
lations Volunteers may be
Persons between the ages of Is and
80 willing to enlist;
Young men over IS and under Is, who
have the written consent of their par
entS.
AS soon as the work of the county
board is over there will be an effort
to get all the men in the county of the
ages named who wish to make velun-
teer enlistment. Examining officers
from the adjutant generals office will
tour the state so that there will be little
delay in getting the men ready for the
service.
The troops at Waco are reported in
prime and fit condition and WILL it is
thought, be among the first to get away
to France.
There is still more work for the Elk
emptiOn Board. All the registered men
will be put in separate classes. The
unmarried men will be the first to go.
OF the married men those who are NOT
supporting families or who have no
dependents will be put in this class. If
any wife thinks her husband is COM
mon nuisance or is not up to the job
of supporting the family, she can tell
the clerk and husband will get whack
at the trenches.

The silliest thing that has come
from the war has been the attempt 20

has the excuse of usage for scores of
years. But "Sammies :" Paugh! Let
the war determine. These things are
spontaneous. About the best yet is the

Yankee name for the rebel soldier in

Australia has a wheat crop stored
amounting to 250,0O0,000 bushels and
no market. There are no ships to
transport it. The British government
has bought the surplus for the last two
years at $114 bushel. When the war
is over. or there are bottoms in which
to carry it. the grain will help feed the
allies. In the meantime however the
U. S. is having greater trade than
ever with Australia and we have never
been as closely bonded in trade rela-
tiOns as now 1t is a shorter haul
here and out of the danger zone.
