Prelude andReSOlutiOnS
By DR.. T. w. Ashley

The white-robed Angel peace
has departed. A black cloud called
"War" hangs ominously over our be-
loved land. The eagle has plumed
himself for flight, possibly beyond the
confines of his native land.
Child of the sun, to thee is given
To guard the banner of the free.
To hover in the sulphur smoke
To ward away the battle stroke
And make it's blendings shine afa1
Like rainbows on a cloud of war,
The harbingers of victory.
Uncle Sam, has called his sons to
take their places in the saddle, the
tented field and upon the sea.
We may be called upon to make
great sacrifices, the days Of 81 to
'65, may have to be lived over again
The voice Of mourning may be heard
in the land. "The voice of Rachel
mourning for her children because
they are not" These are some and
only a few of the horrible concomi
tants of war.
Poems to our flag. Shouts Of 10y
atty from every hilltop. Though every
stream overrun it's banks with senti-
ment, not these alone will feed, clothe,
nor properly equip an army; but or
ganization, for greater efficiency, by
coordinate action like some great
machine, perfect in all it's parts, act
ing in the time and place will pro-
duce the desired result.
Whereas, The State Council Of De-
Tense has been established by act of
the legislature Of Wisconsin to assist
the Governor in order during the
present war, to coordinate all efforts
with those of the federal government
and with those Of other states and in
every way possible to cooperate with
the Council of National Defense at
Washington.
Whereas the State Council Of De-
tense therefore asks you to help in
the establishment of County Coun-
Gil of Defense. This will involve the
complete cooperation of the proper
local authorities and Of the vital &C
Invites of your county. The nation
has great work to do in which it is
our duty and privilege for US as citi-
zens to play our part.
Therefore be it Resolved, That a
committee of five be appointed to take
steps toward perfecting acounty or
ganization in Pierce county.

May Fish During May

Owing to the high cost Of living the
Wisconsin Legislature has deemed it
advisable to open the fishing season
during the month Of May, which is
usually the closed season. The fol-
lowing bill was passed unanimously
under suspension of the rules by both
Houses and will become a law:
A Bill relating to the open season
for fishing.
Whereas, To alleviate conditions due
to the scarcity of and high prices
for food stuffs, it is deemed eXpedi-
ent and advisable that to take Of
the abundant supply Of fish held by
the state Of Wisconsin in trust for
the people be granted to the people
earlier than now prescribed by law;
therefore
The people Of Wisconsin, represented
in senate and assembly, do enact as
follows:
SECTION /. In addition to the
open season provided by law, any per-
son who is a resident Of this state may
catch fish, except large and small
mouth black bass, and sturgeon from
any Of the waters Of this state by
means of hook and line from May L,
1917, to May 20, 1917, both inclusive,
subject to the following restrictions:
(1) The quality Of fish permitted
to be so taken under the provisions
of this act shall not exceed in any one
day ten pound found, except that two
fish Of any weight may be so taken;
(2) No fish taken under the pro
visions of this act shall be shipped,
sold, or caused to be shipped, sold or
bartared;
(3) No fish shall be taken by any
methods, by any means or under any
conditions, or of a length now pro-
hibited by law for the taking, captur
ing or killing Of fish during the open
season therefor;
a. Violations of the provisions of
this section shall be punished in the
manner now provided by law for like
offenses.
SECTION 2. If the conservation
commission shall determine that the
present conditions as to scarcity OF
and high prices for food stuffs pre-
vail during 1913, such commission
shall by order direct that fish may be
taken, captured or killed during the
month of May in the year 1918, sub
ject, however, to all the restrictions
and exceptions contained in section 1
of this act.
SECTION 3. This act shall take
effect upon passage and publication.

The Sunday Train Service

A few days ago word was sent
out that the usual summer Sunday
train schedule would be resumed on
this branch of the Omaha commenc-
ing next Sunday, but on Monday
notice was given that no change
would be made, several reasons being
stated for canceling the service.
A protest, emphatically supported
by those interested in the Interstate
Baseball League, has been made to
the company, but to date there ap-
pears to be no indication that the
company will put on tn double
schedule. With no moring trains in
operation the league will be badly
handicapped in transporting e
teams to the different towns o r
games. Ellsworth being the worst
loser in this matter, as teams will
not have train service in nor out of
there for at home games, and the
Ellsworth team will also be unable
to get train service out, for their
games away from home. The games
will be played according to schedule,
however, the trips being made by
auto until the hoped-for new sched-
ule is put into operation.
