TO ADOPT NEW POLICY
Mineral Point Public Service Co.
Will Offer Preferred Stock
to Local Investors

The Mineral Point Public Servic,
Company has adopted new policy anc
is inviting the public generally to be-
come financially interested in the
organization. The Company makes an
announcement elsewhere in this issue,
offering to its customers the opportunity
of investing in the Company.
The management has long believed
that the customers of public utility
company should be allowed to become
profit-sharing partners in the business.
They believe that this is the proper
way to bring the people and the cor
poration into closer harmony and to
establish a real community of interest.
The relations existing between the
management of the Mineral Point Public
Service Company and its customers
have been most cordial. 1t is with the
desire to continue and promote this
spirit of friendship that the opportunity
for financial partnership is offered,
at is a mistake to believe that our
plan will interest only the man or
woman with money said Secretary
II. S. We'll of the Company. "Our
object in selling preferred stock locally
is not so much to sell large block of
stock as to get the largest possible
number of our customers as stock
holders. We are particularly anxious
to interest the wage Garner and those
who are not accustomed to make large
investments We have, therefore, put
into effect partial payment plan which
will allow anyone to acquire an interest
in the Company out of his monthly
savings
Anyone who wants TO lay by few
dollars a month can secure a good re-
turn on his money and in short time
will become preferred partner in the
Company.
They have paid dividends regularly
for five years, or ever since the pre-

All that the public utility company
expects to earn is fair return on it's
investment. Because it supplies a
vital public necessity to a very large
number Of people, the business of
public utility company is on steady
and constant basis, so that it provides
an investment with an assured regular
yield This is particularly true in Wis
consin, with its model Railroad Com
mission and Public Utility law.
Employees will be encouraged to in
vest their savings in the Company.
We can personally vouch for the
soundness Of this investment. and we
believe that the limited amount of
stock offered will be over subscribed by
local customers within short time.

POINT. WISCONSIN, THURSDAY JANUARY 10 1918
ALL NIGHT STREET LIGHTING.

The Common Council, at its meeting
on the % inst, decided to try out for 8
period OF four months system of all
night lighting of streets on basis OF
moonlight schedule, at an additional
cost to the city of approximately $62, 90
| per month
The Tribune, upon being approached
by an alderman before its adoption, for
an opinion of the experiment. viewed
the question as having appealing merits,
and Therefore endorses the Councils
action. Such a system is surely worthy
of trial, particularly as there is no
police protection after midnight. 1t
has been found in other cities and
attested by police officials that light is
one of the best preventatives against
crimes, robberies and other disorders,
Laborers of our industrial institutions,
physicians, our fire department and the
public in general will surely get value
received for this service at this season
of the year
The Public Service Company will be
pleased TO receive notice of failure of
any lights or any criticism of its service.
In another column will be found
schedule Of street lighting for the re-
mainder of this month.

by brisk northeast wind, leaving piles

GIRLS! HAVE WAW,
THICK, GLOSSY HAIR
FREE FROM DANDRUFF
Save your hair! Double its
beauty in a few moments.
Try this!

If you care for heavy hair, that glis-
tens with beauty and is radiant with
life; has an incompatible softness and
is fluffy and lustrous. try Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair, besides it imme-
diately dissolves every particle of dan
druff; you cannot have nice, heavy,
healthy hair if you have dandruff. This
destructive scuTf robs the hair of its
luster, its strength and it's very life.
and if not overcome it produces fever
ishness and itching of the scalp; the
hair. roots famish, loosen and die; then
the hair falls out fast.
If your hair has been neglected and
is thin. faded, dry, scraggy or too oily,
get a small bottle of Knowlton's Dan
derine at any drug store or toilet coun-
ter for a few cents; apply a little as
directed and ten minutes after you will
say this was the best investment you
ever made
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if you
desire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair and
lots of it-no dandruff-no itching
scalp and no more falling hair-you
must use Knowlton's Danderine. If
eventually-why not now?-(Advt)

TROOPS ARE ORDERED TO
QUELL IRISH REVOLT
Clare County, ireland, Scene
of LaWIeSSneSS and Open
Rebellion

LONDON, Feb. 27.-The outbreak of
lawlessness in County Clare, Ireland, it
is announced officially, rendered neces-
sary Sunday the sending of additional
troops to the county to assist the po-
lice. County Clare has been declared a
special area under the defense of the
realm act.
Recent statements in London news
papers of all shades of political belief
that lawlessness was spreading alarm
ingly in the west and south of Ireland
Dublin correspondent, who says the
government will have to take a prompt
and firm step at repression.
The law is ignored in Clare Sligo,
Roscommon and Mayo. says the corre-
spondent. The police are in daily con-
f1ict with 1awbreakers. In parts of
Clare cattle drivers in fear of cattle
thieves have called for small bodies of
troops. The telegraph wires have been
cut and trees are thrown across the
roads daily to hinder the movements of
troops and police. Farms are being
seized in the name of the Irish re-
public.
Dublin is particularly startled over
the successful attempt of the Sim Fein
to stop the expectation of pigs, which
the Sim Feiners declare it is their in
tention to continue.
The correspondent admits that eXpor-
tations in defiance of the food con-
troller's orders had become a national
grievance, and that it was believed the
authorities were taking steps to pre-
vent them.

WILSON WAITS ON
CZERNIN TO REPLY;
HERTLlNG SCORED
Neither Washington Nor Lon
don Sees Any Chance for
Further Negotiations With
German MiIitariStS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2T.-President
Wilson is waiting upon Count Czernin's
expected reply to his last peace-terms
message before determining his future
course as to a new statement before
the tribunal of the world.
If it shows a conciliatory and recep-
tive spirit, the president will again APP
pear before congress to amplify his
previous statements, according to the
belief among International authorities
today. Whether he would reply to
Hertling cannot be stated now.
The general spirit here today after
digesting Hertling's message, was one
Of rejection. Everywhere, the thought
was that Hertling was insincere, that
he was playing a game. This game, ac-
cording to the general view, was to try
to foster pacifist spirit within the al
lied nations, and to try to cause a split
in them.
Particularly, he appears to be playing
to American public opinion-trying to
distinguish it from the allies proper. He
accepts President Wilson's four basic
principles while at the same time he at
lacks the British and French. There is
much of camouflage about his remarks
anent Belgium, about self-determina-
zion, and about German war aims, &C
cording to the thought here.
Russian Problem
Also, the disposition of the Russian
problem is considered a particularly
adroit maneuver. Self-determination in
Lithuania and Cuorland would be es-
tablished-with German guns guarding
the ballot boxes. Poland would be in
dependent but so hedged about by Ger
man control and German threats near
by that its independence would be null
The promise not to establish German
rule in Esthonia and Livonia is the sim
gle pledge of freedom for any of the
over-run Russian territory.
The chancellor's statements anent
Germnay'S war of defense" are regard
ed here as threadbare sophistries which
in the light of German atrocities APP
pear ludicrous.
Count Czernin, however, may adopt a
different tone, as he has in the past.
While the Austrians are so linked to
Germany by debt that a break is diff
ficult, Austria's yearning for peace is
such that the president believes a. pol
itical offensive should be continued
there as long as any chance of a sep
arate peace is possible. In these cir
cumstances, he will doubtless appear in
congress again if Czernin answers his
last message.
