In a business letter that we receiv-
ed from Mrs. I. E. Dunevan, she says
that her daughter, Beatrice, under
went an operation on her throat re-
Gently and that as a consequence she
has been quite busy looking after her
! welfare,
She also says that they have had
lovely winter, the roses in bloom
most of the time, the fruit trees are
in bud, and with a few more warm
days they will all be in bloom.
The winter gardens have been fine
in most places. Most Of the garden
stuff, such as cabbage, lettuce, par
ships, carrots, beets, and caulifower
grow all winter and are so much nicer
than when kept in cold storage. She
says that they will now commence to
make their summer gardens. They
have had lots of rain this winter and
it has not stopped yet, although there
have been a good may days that the
sun has shone and the fields and lawns
are green. She reports R. G. Dunevan
and family all well. Will is in the ar
my and holds the office of Corporal.
She reports her father and mother
Mr.. and Mrs. J. L. Beadle well and
that her father is all over the illness
that he suffered when he fell and broke
his ribs Her uncle, Geo! F. Blake,
lives with them. He is an old man, 76
years Of age but he retains all his ia
culties and is as well as a man so
years old. He drives his auto any
where he chooses. They all desire to
be remembered to their Grand Rapids
friends.

LENROOT NAMED LOYAL CAN
DTDATE
A. L. FONTAINE

The Wisconsin Senatorial Confer
ence, which was held in Milwaukee on
Monday was truly a harmony, family
convention. Former Stalwarts and
Progressives joined together in one
strong unit in favor of loyal candi-
date for u S. Senatorship which hon
or fell to Irving L. Lenroot of Super
Tor.
His vote was 81, McGovern As, Gov.
Philip 1.
The decision came after a stormy
session lasting several hours and fol-
lowing the appearance before the
gathering of Mr. McGovern, who told
the conference he would not submit
his candidacy before the meeting be-
cause he claimed to be the first low
atty candidate in the state to an
nounce his candidacy and felt that it
would be unfair and unreasonable for
the conference to expect him to abide
by its decision should another candi-
date be indorsed.
This is taken to mean that Mr.. Len
root will be confronted not only by
Thompson, but also by McGovern.
A striking incident of the conference
was the unanimous voice of indorse-
ment given President Wilson as to
the conduct of the war.
This conference of loyal Republic
ans of the State of Wisconsin unre-
servedly pledges it's undivided and
whole-hearted support in everything
looking to the vigorous and unrelent-
ing prosecution of the war to a sue
cessful termination and to the Presi-
dent and government of the United
States in their efforts to this end.
This conference condemns the
course of Senator r. NJ. La Toilette
relative to the conduct of the present
war, and censures him for his failure
to support the government in this su-
preme crisis of the country.
1--WE recommend to the Republicans
OF the State of Wisconsin that that
candidate who shall become the choice
of this conference shall have the u
nited and earnest support of the party
at the primary to be held March 10,
1918"

DEATHOF MRS.
4. B. GIBBS

The following obituary taken from
the Mellen Weekly will be of interest
to many of the old settlers Of Grand
Rapids, who will remember Mrs. A.
B. Gibbs, better as Miss Nina Ripley.
She was born in Centralia and edu-
Gated in the public schools and resid-
ed here until she reached womanhood.
She died recently at her home in
Mellen of apoplexy.
She had many virtues that will
commend her to those who were init
mately acquainted with her. We re-
produce the following account of her
DEATH
TUESDAY noon when word was pass
ed about the city that Mrs. A B.
Gibbs had passed away, the news was
a decided shock. Very few knew that
she was i'll. Sunday night Mrs. Gibbs
retired as usual in apparently good
health. Mr.. Gibbs left the house Mon
day morning, as was customary, be
fore Mrs. Gibbs got up. While it was
rare thing for Mrs Gibbs not to
reach the store by 9 o'clock, Mr.. Gibbs
thought possibly the severe weather
was keeping her home. About II o.
clock Mr.. Gibbs went home and found
his wife unconscious on the kitchen
floor. Mr.. Gibbs Immediately sum-
moned DR.. Lockhart who pronounced
Mrs. Gibbs suffering from a stroke of
apopleXy and in a hopeless condition.
Mrs. Gibbs never regained conscious
ness and pasesd away five minutes af-
ter one o'clock on Tuesday, Feb. 26th
Nina Gibbs was Nina Ripley and
was born at Grand Rapids, Wis, July
3rd, 1862 and at the time of her death
was SIS years, months and 26 days
of age She graduated from the Grand
Rapids High School at the age of 1G
and taught her first year of school at
Ogema, Wis. She next taught at
Chelsea. On the 9Th day of May 1882
was united in marriage to A. B. Gibbs
at the home of her sister, Mrs. J. B
Anderson who then resided at Chel-
sea. From Chelsea they moved to
Epson, Wis, and in the fall, 1891
moved to Mellen where they have since
resided. Mrs Gibbs was very closely
identified with Mr.. Gibbs in the store
business for over thirty years.
She leaves to mourn her sudden
departure, besides her husband two
sisters, Mrs. Augusta Anderson, OF
Epson; Mrs. Georgia Sheldon, of &c.
neva, Nebraska; one uncle and aunt
Mr. and Mrs. Leander Ripley, or Sur
Dance, Wyoming.
She was a member of the Roya
Neighbors of America. The funera
services will be held at the Meller
Union Church, Friday, March 1st, al
2 p. M, and she will be laid to rest
in the Mellen Cemetery.

The loss of Mrs. Gibbs will be kene.
in Mellen, who extend their sympathy
to Mr. Gibbs in his hour of sorrow.

The desire TO break up the entente
coalition at any cost is so intense
among the Germans that we must an
ticipate that, at the psychological mo-
ment, they will even go SO far as to Of
fer to restore Alsace-LOrraine to
France, Andre Cheradame writes in
Atlantic. AS for the sincerity Of such
an offer, these words of Macmillan
Harden, written early in 1915, enable
US to estimate it: "If people think in
France that the establishment OF
peace is possible only through the res
titutiOn Of Alsace-Lorraine, and if ne
cessity cOmpels US to sign such a
peace, the 100000 of Germans will
soon tear it up. Moreover, nothing
would be less difficult for Germany,
thanks to the effective forces of the
central pan-Germany, than to seize AL
sace-Lorraine again, very shortly, hay
ing given it up momentarily as tao
teal maneuver"

The best food advice that has been
given the public lately is Easy on the
food panic" It came from Buffalo
wholesalers, who added: Tell the
public that there's plenty Of food and
to stop rushing the groceries and buy
ing supplies in neeedlessly large guam
titles" Easy on the food panicl Don't
get excited over food shortages, says
Buffalo Express. There has not been
any serious food shortage as yet.
There is not likely to be any serious
food shortage. Such a thing as that
raid on local salt supplies on Friday
would be ridiculous if it did not have
q possibly serious aspect. Do not buy
to hoard; buy for normal needs. Just
remember that everybody cannot lay
in q supply Of this that or the other,
to last six months or three months or
two months, without creating q ficti-
tious shortage. In these war times we
must be normal-normal in our occu-
pations, normal in our pleasures nor
NAL in all our activities, and above all
else normal in the purchase Of our
supplies. In other words, let US be
sane.

umn when the recent foreign war was
started. It has been there in every is
sue since. It has always been dis
played from our printing office build
ing and from our home and it shall
continue to remain there and be de-
Tended by US to the end.
Since the Z. S. declared war against
Germany, our editorial and other col
umns have been filed with American
patriotism and support of our Gov
eminent, our Flag, the Red Cross, the
G. A. R., the Liberty Loan, the Thrift
Stamp and other patriotic movements
that have been instituted in our midst.
Why should our brother editor ques-
ton our Americanism
There is absolutely no reason for
it and no basis for it. We challenge
any man to gainsay that we are ''back-
sliding" or a Stacker" in any sense
of the word when it comes to Our Flag
or Our Government. We have sup
ported President Wilson in his posi-
ton against Mexico and against Ger
many and we shall continue to support
him to the end
As newspaper publisher we believe
in publishing any fact or truth that
will show up the shortcomings and
/ disposition Of men and corporations
that viii make use Of the troublous
times of war, for the purpose of max
ing money.
If the income tax figures for 1916,
are correct as published in that arti-
Gle those of 1917, will necessarily be
much larger Why not investigate and
know the truth about these things
Brother Drumb, have you read the
charges set forth in the Daily Press
all over the country of the great
profits being made on the Hog Island
ship building industry?
If you have not, it will pay you to
read other than one side of questions
that arise, like these, exhorbitant
profits that are being made public by
the Daily Press of the country.
Don't waste your time or space up
on the question as to our Americanism
or ''backsliding." Are the income tax
figures correct as published? That's
the only question at issue? We coulc
| just as consistently come back at yor
and question your Americanism fol
the same and other reasons.

Hindenburg is confident we can't get
q big army to France and that even if
we could we wouldn't because we are
afraid Of Japan. Maybe Hindenburg
has inside information on that point
says Louisville Courier-J Journal. May
be he is in the confidence of thinner
mann, who got up that little scheme
to have Japan and Mexico come over
and apportiOn out the real estate Of
Uncle Sam. Maybe he knows the
whereabouts of Zimmerman himself

that Zim is at this moment either in

The Bank that does things for you
OUR AMERICANISM UNSULLIED

Our neighbor and brother editor
w. A. Drumb, one of the publishers of
the Grand Rapids Tribune, relieved
himself of an editorial article, headed
"A Case of Backsliding" His article
was prompted by one that we pub
ished in our issue of Feb. q, 1918
headed Lets Turn From Greenwood
and Emerald to Other Points in the
State of Wisconsin" which was taken
from the Capitol Times, published at
Madison, Wisconsin, Feb. IA, 1918 and
addressed to Mr.. Magnus Swenson. 1t
was signed and written by VIM. T.
Evjue. The article was on the matter
of income tax paying by wholesale
dealers and manufacturers of meat.
coal, shoes, paper, and steel. The
article was really and truly a great
revelation to everybody who read it.
The great increase of income tax
paid by the large dealers, especially
in 1916, leads one to believe that the
large incomes, especially since the war
has been declared, that great profits
are being made along certain NUM-
ton and other lines.
Our reply to Brother Drumb, in ref
erence to our Americanism, is as fol-
lows: We were born in CentraEa on
August 8, 1859, and with the exception
of few years we have spent all our
life in Grand Rapids. Since April
1880, we have published the Wood
County Reporter. Our files will bear
US out, since then that the Wood Coun-
ty Reporter has always been a sup
porter of the government. state. coun-
ty and city in which it has been pub
lished. We have always advocated
and supported during this time, every
thing that was in favor of the uplift
of mankind
We were the first newspaper in
Grand Rapids to put the American
flag at the head of our editorial COL

new CITY
HALLINUSE

The new city hall building was
thrown open to the public, Monday ev
ening, March 4th, at which time the
mayor, city officers and aldermen act
ed as reception committee to receive
the visitors and give them a cordial
greeting in our new city home.
A large number availed themselves
of this opportunity to visit the new
building. There was a constant re-
ception of guests from 7 o'clock to 9
p. NJ, during which time the city band
furnished music. Everybody appeared
to be we'll pleased and satisfied with
the new building, its arrangement, and
furnishings, all of which were in har-
mony and in good taste. The erection
of the building was let by contract to
A. F. Billmeyer, the architect and
builder, the furniture was furnished by
J. R. Raglan, and the curtains by the
Johnson & Hill Co. The heating,
plumbing, and decorating were sub
let to local contractors by Mr.. Bill
meyer. The citizens of Grand Rapids
have every reason to be proud of their
new city hall.

meat, and most of their butter and

western farmer said: ''These are the
