The usual aftermath OF trying to Tx

away and in few days all except those
ssdly interested will have forgotten
this accident and the grade crossing

which has been rendered by Hall
Brothers, Is new truck or second
hand truck. Mr.. Anderson, r'pre'
senting the Four Wheel Drive Co.
stated to us that an Office girl 10 the
office OF Miller, Earle & Miller OF
Chicago, they being the distri butors of
the Four Wheel Drive Truck in Chi
cago, had told him that the truck
which Hall Brothers rendered to the
county had been used for road work at
Des PLANES, Illinois but he had made
no further investigation to ascertain
whether or not this was the fact and
this was the only evidence submitted
to the committee that this truck had
been used for any work up to this
date.
Hall brothers presented sworn
statement Of Mr.. Earle that the truck
was new and had not been used for any
purpose and had not been run except
from the depot to the warehouse from
the time of its delivery by the Clinton
Vile Drive Co. to his company at Chi
cago
He further presented a telegram from
7. d. Randell, from whom Hall Broth
ers purchased the truck, stating that
this truck had been in the bonded
warehouse at Chicago from the 21st Of
February to the 18th day OF April,
1917, April l3tn being the date on
which Mr.. Hall procured the truck
from Randell.
On all the evidence presented your
committee cannot say that the truck
rendered by Hall Brothers has been
used.
Your committee further took evil
dence on the equipment rendered by
said Hall Brothers and find that said
equipment is in compliance with the
contract given to Hall Brothers by the
State Road and Bridge Committee.
Hall Brothers offer to put said truck
in good working order before delivery
to the County, said orders 10 direct
Hall Brothers as to the adjustments
and Appliances to be placed upon said
truck before delivery is made.
Your committee are eatisfed that
the truck and equipment rendered un-
der this contract by Hall Brothers Is
in compliance with the order given
Hall Brothers by said state road and
bridge committee and we therefore
recommend that the bill presented by
Hall Brothers for this equipment be
allowed and ordered paid and that the
bill presented for the equipment 81
legged to have peen ordered from the
Clintonville Four Wheel Drive Com
pany be rejected"

tee was adopted by vote Of % to ..

ITEMS FROM The PILOT FILES.
FORTY.FOUR YEARS AGO.

NEW AOuNIn DOARD, ne new
County board convened by special call,
met on Monday the 10Th. The first
informal ballot disclosed the fact that
Mr.. G. DAIMLER, of Two Rivers was
their choice for Chairman and after
few preliminaries looking to the ap.
pointment OF standing committees for
the coming year were disposed Of they
adjourned until Tuesday at $3.50 o'clock
A. M. We think they acted wisely in
selecting NJ. DAIMLER as their chairman.
He is man OF unquestionable ability
and integrity and as an old member OF
that body will sccustom himself to the
new duties devolving upon him as soon
IS any member OF that board of assem-.
bled dignitaries and this seemed to be
their settled conviction as there were
only five votes against him.
On Tuesday morning he announced
the committees which as far as we can
learn give satisfaction. In our judg-
ment this board is more than an aver
age in comparison with former boards
and when they get through tilbuster-
ing, will do good work for their sever
al towns. We shall lay the proceed
ings OF the meeting before the public
as soon as we can procure copies of the
Clerks minutes.
RAILROADS AT LAST.-Atter much
patient waiting, we are enabled to an
nounce that Eastern capitalists have
come down with the money to complete
our L. S. A. Western Railroads. Pres.
Villas arrived in Chicago from New
York City on Monday morning last,
and will make all necessary arrange
ments for the immediate completion Of
our railroads, south and west.
1t has been stated that he could not
possibly succeed in obtaining the ne
cessary money TO complete the road on
account OF the close money market both
in this country and in Europe, but time
has proved that they were false proph
ets. We have good reasons for believ-
ing that the grading, bridge building
and track laying will be pushed forward
without interruption from next week
until completed. Mr.. Villas is looked
for each day by boat or car, when the
desponding may be treasured by seeing
the work progressing on the whole
line.

Max Rahr has charge OF the new ma
chine shop which Is run in connection
with the plant OF Rahr's Sons. Besides
being a trained mechanic he has a de.
cided bent OF mind towards inventions

ice machine, which for simplicity and
reliability has no superior. by means
OF this machine the temperature In The

DlED.--In the town OF Depere on
May l6, 1892, Patrick Tracy. He
came TO Wisconsin In 1854 and lived in
the town OF Liberty for thirty-six
years. He was So years old at the
time OF his death.
People living in the country, and
who cannot get to town as often as
they would like to just now, are apt to
be suspicious as 10 the action Of those
in the city and upon the scene OF the
present financial disturbance. The i'm.
preston prevails to some extent that
the papers do not bring all Of the new
developments, that they conceal what
they think may benefit city creditors
and dlvuige only what is OF less impor-
tance. II by that is meant that all the
rumors that are in existence are not
published the charge is true, at least as
far as the Pilot is concerned. The Pi-
lot has thus far concealed nothing of an
authentic nature, and promises US here
tofore to publish all the news, but 1t
will not engage in blasting character
upon mere rumor.
