The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1919-01-24

One hundred years cover so wide an
expanse in the development of this
country from the trackless forest as
Mr.. Painter saw it when he first came
to Wisconsin, to a village with all mod
ern improvements of telephone, cleo
trio lights, it becomes little less than a
revelation to man who has retained
his health and mind to the end.
Mr.. Painter was born in Alfred, AL
leghany county, N. Y, Jan. 26, 1919.
He came to Wisconsin in 1841, locating
in Milton. Three years later he as
sisted Alden Burdick build his first
home in the town of Albion, the lum-
beE being sawed on Bark river and
floated down Lake Koshkonong to New
vile. Later he located fine farm in
that township of 240 acres on which
the greater portion Of his life was
passed. He was married to Sarah Ben
jamen, native. of Alfred, N. Y, in
1847, whose long years of companion
ship were terminated by death in 1904.
Two sons, Elverton and j. Orville, were
born to this union Few men have re-
tanned their faculties as well as Mr..
Painter during their later years. He
has always been great reader and
kept abreast of the news of the day.
He developed keen interest in the
progress of the late war as he has in
matters of state and national politics.

"A new schedule of toll rates went
into effect Tuesday in accordance with
an order of the postmaster general,
which considerably increases the cost
on long distance calls. The order has
created good deal of opposition from
the state commission which are given
control of rates of such utilities, and
the protest has almost become nation
wide against the new rates. The new
schedule, however, reduces the rates
on short distance calls and in that way
is likely to effect the earnings of local
companies adversely. Under the new
rates there will be basic charge Of
six and one-fourth mills a mile, air
mileage, with half the day rates for
night service up to midnight and one
fourth to 4:30 a. m. Attorney General
Blaine, with the state railway commits
sion to back him, has brought injunc-
tion proceedings to prohibit the enforc-
ing of the new rates

Bolsheviki Busy
 in British Lands

London, Nov. 2O.-The British au- thorities have received disturbing re- ports of bolshevik activities in Tur- kestan and Afghanistan. Tashkent, capital of the general government of Russian Turkestan, is the center for class of instruction where bolshevik emissaries are trained and taught various languages before undertaking missions farther east.
 M. Bavan, formerly attached to the Russian legation at Teheran, one of the bolshevik leaders, was recent ly sent to kubal, capital of Afghani- stan, where he had an audience with the ameer. M. Vozrezztenzky (Voy- tinsky) formerly in the foreign of flee at Petrograd, is another direct ing spirit. He regards Afghanistan as of the primest importance as a propaganda field and at the same timehas sent letter to Sun Vat Sen, former provisional president of the Chinese republic and leader of the revolutionary party, urging a revolution in China along soviet lines.
