Have New Depot.

Phelps now boasts a new de-
pot, and it surely was a much
needed addition to the railroad
patrons of that village. It is
said that with the increasing pa
tronage of that place, the depot
will still be too small to take
care of the traffic. freight and ex-
press arriving and departing
every day in the year. Other
changes are the placing of the
postofice from the company S
store to the rooms recently va
Gated by Johnson, the barber,
adjoining Tommy McGregor's
barber shop. The talk of install

Roadway before spring, it now
being in the hands OF the Welfare
Club of that village.

MEET DEATH HUNTING
Twelve Hunters, Eleven Men
and One Woman, Lose Life
During Open Season.

The deer hunting season just
closed shows that twelve people
in Wisconsin lost their life during
the open season beginning in
September and ending December
first.
1t is estimated that about
twenty-five sportsmen were seri-
ously injured or wounded. while
on hunting expeditions this year.
In view of the fact that some
$4,000 deer hunting licenses
were issued in 1919, the number
of casualties is regarded as very
light. The majority of those
killed met death while in quest
of smaller game.
LIST OF DEAD.
The list of dead to date is:
John Rux, Trout Lake, mistaken
for deer and accidently shot.
Frank Aunne, Cum berland, killed
Uy SOh pdniOHs WIZ SUM Uiou dCClU6n-
tally discharging gun into Aunne's
body.

hunting.

ger of gun caught in twig, iischarg-
ing contents into abdomen.
Frank Wilson, Pardeville, gun acct

Alvin Aberg, Homer, gun went off
accidentally.
Capt. j. Milton Hill, Fond du Lac,
drowned while duck hunting in Lake
Winnebago.
Mrs. Della Sheets, Milwaukee, shot
by accidental discharge of shotgun at
Genesee lake.
Considerable agitation for a
closed year has resulted as out
growth of the big slaughter this
season. It has been suggested
that deer hunting be permitted
only on alternate years. Others
urge ban for the next FIVE or
ten years.

TOOK TOO MUCH MONEY
Otherwise Grenier Would
Have Purchased Prize Win
ners at Big Chicago Stock
Show.

Louis Grenier of Arbor Vitae
attended the International Live
Stock show at Chicago last
week, and is now an enthusiast
for blooded live stock. While he
will still hang on to his potato
honors and continue in the spud
game, still the purebred stock
farm proposition looks good to
him.
While he did not go to buy any
of the prize winners, he reached
for his check book when several
were placed in the sales ring. He
says: when the price of the an
imals would reach $4,000, |
would look at my check book
and step back, for l realized |
was trotting in a swifter class
than l imagined and my check
book was not large enough
Mr.. Grenier claims it is worth
money to the man who is build
ing up a herd in this section to
attend purebred SLOW. He i'm
mediately learns the value OF a
pure strain over scrubs.

To My Subscribers
THE Villas COUNTY
NEWS WILL INCREASE ITS
SUBSCRIPTION PRICE.

After January lst, 1920, the
price of the Villas County
News will be $500 per year,
payable in advance.
Owing to the increased cost
this month in our news print
paper and other material used
in the publication of the
News, this move is absolutely
necessary. had hoped that
the price of material would
drop after the war and it
would not be necessary to add
vance the price, but such is
not the case. Instead of a
drop, the cost has jumped
ahead, at an astounding rate
and there is no apparent re-
lief in sight.
With newspapers elsewhere
raising their prices, and quite
a number suspending opera
tons, it is shown the sub
scriber that the advance in
the price of the Villas County
News is necessary. My sub
scribers therefore will under
stand the situation.
However, to every one who
pays one year in advance be-
fore January LIST, may do so
at the old rate of $1.50.
Better take advantage of
this opportunity and send in
your subscription. We will
begin mailing you blanks this
week for your renewal at $l.5O
for the coming year.
Yours very truly.

residents appeared at City Hall, seeking
relief from Chief Albright, of the Bu

of Public Works.
"Our cellars are flooded" said the
head of the delegation. '"There has been
frequent trouble from the sewer for a
year. We have been repeatedly prom

there is an ordinance in Councils, which
has been pending there for long time,
to provide for n new sewer. With sew

 No one except the wind. He used to laugh and tear my nest a bit into filmy ribbon to wear when he fought like the knights of old. You see, he thought I was the Painted Lady in- stead of the Painted Beauty
 "The Painted Lady does look great deal like me. Her wings are pink orange like my own, only, perhaps a shade lighter, and have practically the same border design of brown. The whitedots on the upper wings are also present. The main difference between us is that where have two large eye like spots on the under side of each lower wings, she has row of small spots"
 I suppose she likes the thistle plants" said the dragon-fly.
 Indeed, yes. And because of this, she is found the world over. She is often called the Cosmopolitan butter fly"

 Worst Democrats" Scolded
 Several had spoken before Hardy was introduced. Each had chosen somewhat similar themes. Hardy said in consequence there is nothing for me to say. It has all been said. What is needed is action" He then launched into what was termed a scolding of Maricopa county demo- crats. He characterized them as the worst set of democrats he had ever seen"
 He referred, as did others. to the di- rect primary, a democratic measure which has been bitterly assailed by one wing of the party. This wing at the last session of the legislature ad- vocated a resortation of the party con- vention as a substitute. He said there was no use of bringing up the direct primary at every meeting or party council and denouncing it and laying to 1t democratic defeats. "It will not help us any now, because we have the direct primary and will have 1t at the next election" he said "The thing to do is to abide by the decision of the direct primary and then work for the democratic nominee with solid front"
 John Weatherford of Coconinc county advocated a committee of six or eight to work for unity and stir up enthusiasm in democratic meetings He said that harmony was the essen tial quality to restore the party. He said that 1t was apparent to all demo crats that the party was greatly dis organized and would be destroyed fl the democrats did not quit quarrelfng among themselves and hold together in their choices for office.
 Too Many Candidates
 Judge w. L. Barnum of Maricops county gave as his opinion that tht perpetual office holder was a menac. to the party. This appeared to be al unpopular statement with one wing O the party by reason that several long time state officials were present iron the capitol. Barnum. however, re ceived generous applause from others Joe Mcbride of the attorney gen erals office gave as his opinion wh, the party was not meeting with tn, success desired by its leaders was tha the party had no daily press repre- sentation and only a scattering of tn, weekly press" Hardy, who followed him. said papers had nothing to witl it; that defeat was due to too man, candidates.
