point of German officialdom
towards German-Americans.
The senator had emphasized
the fact that an exhibit by the
German government would be
pleasing to German-AmericanS.
But the suggestion was resent
ed with the curt reply that the
Germans living in America had
deserted the Fatherland to eS-
cape military duty and were
unworthy of such considerati-
on. Nor did Germany send any
exhibit though all the other
large powers of Europe did so.
The incident shows the con-
tempt felt by the German gov

orleans before the war and

I think we are allowing ourselves
to be misled as to the actual cost OF
hard surface roads and doubt very
much If the first S6,00O,00O issue
would make even respectable be-
ginning on what is being put before
us by those who advocate the bond
issue. II seems to me that some in
formation from our county court as
to the cost of the Pendleton- Rieth

our door and being built under favor
able conditions would be very appro-
PIRATE at this time and | respectfully
ask of them these few questions:
l. When was the first preliminary
survey of that road made?
,. What is the total itemi2ed cost
OF the road per mile up to the pres

3. What is the pprohable cost per
mile for completing and hardsurfae-
ing the road?
4. When do YOU estimate the road
will be completed?
5. What is the length of the road
from the point where you commenced
actual construction work to the poin;
where you are now at work near the
railroad roundhouse at Rieth?

THE WAR BOND ISSUE

T HE effect of the $1,000
VI 100000 loan will un-
questionably be stimu-
lating in some respects. There
i no doubt whatever but that
the issue will be tremendous
success and largely oversub-
lscribed. That of course will
prove encouraging and will
promote confidence. Then the
bulk of this huge sum will be
spent at home for supplies of
all sorts, benefitting many in
dustries and filtering through
many channels of trade. By
issue on the installment plan
initiation will be kept down to
a minimum. though for min
erals, metals and products of
the same high prices must be
expected as long as the war
continues. Our farmers, too,
are sure of good prices; so the
activities induced by war are by
no means at an end. At the
same time it will hardly be
prudent to overlook the effect
of withdrawing such vast sums
from the ordinary channels of
investment. Eventually this
whole sum must be taken out
of profits and savings that
would otherwise go largely in
to new enterprises. The pros
pect of seven billions of new
government bonds being plac-
ed on the market in compare
lively few months is a factor
that cannot be ignored-From

nament.
narnent.

Overconfdence in the initial game is
assigned the cause for Edgerton's los
ing by single point chance to battle
for the interscholastic basketball cham
pionship at the Stout Institute last
week. In the elimination games Ed
gerton was pitted against Waukesha,
which it had trounced to the tune of 60
to "a a few weeks ago. Our team
doubtless miscounted the ability of
Waukesha to come back, and before
they fairly woke up to the job at hand
the Spring City boys had run up such a
lead on them that they couldn't over
come it The game closed with score
of II to Is. 1t is confidently thought
'our chances would have been good to
have walked away with the title honors
of champs had it not been for the mis-
hap of permitting team not entitled
to it to score the winning point.
Eau Claire won the championship by
defeating Waukesha in the afternoon,
Is to 3, after Waukesha had trimmed
Menomonie in the morning, Is to 6.
Third place in the meet goes to Edger-
ton by default, as Menomonie refused
to play the southern section champs.
Edgerton also gets the loving cup do
mated for good conduct and appearance.
Edgerton beat Galesville z to 3.
The championship game between
Waukesha and Eau Claire was excep-
tionally rough and tough. The men
fought like fends and little good bas-
ketball was displayed.
Prof. Holt is reported as saying the
meet was more like football playing
than the usual basketball playing.
The Edgerton team returned Sunday
morning and were met at the station
by large assembly of admirers. They
played four games at the tournament,
winning three and losing one. During
the present season just closed they
played Fl games and met defeat but
once at the hands of Waukesha by a
single point. 1t is a record that but
few basketball teams in the state can
equal. In the selection of an all-state
team from the tournament players two
from the Edgerton five, Mcintosh and
Williams, were named.

Income Tax Case in Court.

1t Is not generally known that the
largest income tax assessed in Rock
county this year is against Otto Eisen-.
lohr & Bro, inc, the extensive tobac-
co packers at Edgerton, amounting to
$14. 400. 70, the collection of which has
got into the courts. The assessment
was made to include taxes for four
years, 1912 to 1916, and the question at
issue is whether the firm is entitled to
an offset for the personal property tax
paid in these years. Arguments were
heard by Judge Grimm in the circuit
court in an action brought against H.
H. Dickinson, city treasurer, to quash
an application for writ of mandamus
to COMPEL the defendant to give the
firm credit for the personal property
taxes as an offset for the years they
were delinquent.
The firm seeks to use the SO, 953. 35
personally tax, which has been paid
and for which they have receipts on
file in the case, as an offset in the pay
ment of the delinquent income tax
which would leave their income tax for
the period but 81, 817.S5. This amount
has been deposited by the company
with the clerk of the circuit court as
an evidence of good faith to pay the
same on that basis.
It was the contention of City Treas
urer Dickinson as argued by his attor-
ney, M. o. Mouat, that the Eisenlohrs
had forfeited their right to use the
personal property offset in the payment
of their income tax for the reason that
they had been delinquent, and on the
ground that in order to benefit by the
law providing the use of the personally
tax as an offset, settlement must be
made each year at the proper time.
The city of Edgerton, consequently,
seeks to collect the total, $14, 1000. 70
from the Eisenlohr firm.

MRS. MARY TALL.


Another one of the pioneer women of
Albion Prairie closed her earthly career
in the death of Mrs. Mary Tall, after a
brief illness of pneumonia, on Sunday
evening, March 18th. The deceased, a
daughter of Samuel and Ann Marsden,
was born in England, August Is, 1887.
She emigrated to America in 1841 with
her parents who were among the earli-
est settlers to take up home on AL
bion Prairie. She was united in mar
riage to Samuel Tall February %, 1865,
and settled on a farm in that neighbor-
hood which has ever since been her
home. From this union five children
survive, Charles III. and Frank Tall of
Edgerton, Mrs. Lethema Slagg, Mrs.
Matte Craig and Harlow Tall of AL
bion Prairie. She also leaves two
brothers, Samuel and Joseph Marsden,
residing in the same neighborhood. The
deceased began Christian life when
young and has always been faithful
member of the Primitive Methodist
church.
Funeral services were held from the
P. M. church on the Prairie Wednes-
day afternoon, Rev. Coach officiating,
and her remains laid to rest in the Al
bion Prairie cemetery beside that of
her husband who preceded her to the
grave four years ago.
