| of which he was Past High Priest, of

der OF the Eastern Star, and of the
Hebrew Cemetery association of which

OUR INCOME TAXES
WISCONSIN NOW TO HAVE A
INCOME TAXES WITH THE
SOLDIERS EDUCATION

With the passing of the soldiers ed
ucational bill incomes in Wisconsin
will be subjected to four taxes for
the year 1918 to be colleced in jan
uary, 1920. First there will be the
regular state income tax; second the
general soldier soldier bonus income
tax in the form of sur tax; third a
sur tax on incomes for the soldiers
educational bill and fourth, federal
income tax. Rates for all except the
soldiers educational tax have been
computed by the state tax commission.
An individual in Wisconsin who has a
net income of $4,000 will pay a state
income tax of $3.50; the soldier bon
us sur tax does not affect incomes
below that amount so no tax will be
charged on that sum, but the federal
tax will be $3.50, making a total of
$217.5O. On the same basis man
with a net income of $4,000 will pay
a tax of $16,982.50, without the SOL
diers' educationak tax being included
Gov. Phillip said that he believed
the matter would be taken to the
courts for determination early upon
the converting of the supreme court in
October. He did not know how the
suit would be brought, but officials
in the soldier bonus bill and the SOL
dier educational bill that the court
should pass on the legality of these
acts so there would be no further
question.

MINORITY REPORT
BY SIX MEMBERS OF THE
SENATE FOREIGN RELA-
TIONS COMMITTEE

Six democratic members of the SEN
ate foreign relations committee on
Thursday, presented to the senate a
minority report on the peace treaty,
urging unqualified adoption of the
pact.
The report replies to statements
made in the majority report filed by
Senator Lodge, chairman of the COM
mittee, on Thursday, and charges that
the senator's Spposing the League of
Nations, knowing it is invincible in a
fair fight, are trying to defeat it by
indirection through reservations. The
proposed reservations, the report says,
have all the voices of amendments and
the additional vice of pretending to
be what they are not-interpretations
of the covenant language.
The document, which was signed by
Senators Hitchcock, Williams, Swan
son, Pommerene, Smith of Arizona
and Pitman, stated that delay in re-
porting the peace treaty has resulted
in government by obstruction; that
American trade already shows the ef-
fects of this delay; that adoption OF
the majority amendments or reserva-
tions will mean that the United States
VIII lose all of the concessions OBJ.
tanned from Germany by a dictated
peace; that the reservations are the
work of senators determined to des-
troy the League Of Nations and, il
possible, defeat the treaty; that the
League of Nations is the worlds only
hope of preventing international
chaos; that those opposing the League
have nothing to offer to do this.

THE CEMETERY

Several weeks ago an article was
|sent in and published by the Pilot,
from Subscriber, one seemingly
interested in the welfare of the city,
its improvements and in public affairs
generally. He hit upon a popular
chord when he took up our cemetery,
for it is matter which should inter
est every person in our city and many
outside. who have dear ones laid to
rest there. Most of those interested,
now, expect that it will be their last
resting place. We cannot get away
from the fact that death must come to
us all, sooner or later, and it seems
that every one having an interest in
our cemetery should at least assist In
keeping the grounds as they should
be-clear of rubbish. high grass weeds
and untrimmed trees or shrubbery,
| and well mown lots. The article
mentioned published a few weeks ago
in the Pilot, l noticed did much good
to help along the work of cleaning up
the grounds. Previous to this the
avenues were piled high with rub
bish; the grass and weeds were grow
ing rank. This has in a measure, been
| taken care of, but there must be
more work done on the grounds es-
pecially on the avenues, and by lot
owners. Lot owners should be al
lowed to pull weeds, cut their grass
and pile up the refuse neatly beside
the road, and the association should
arrange to carry this refuse away,
Our people should be more interested
in the cemetery. Raise money. if
necessary, to see that every lot is
taken care of Some of the avenues
are yet in bad condition and there is
iplenty of rubbish still laying about.
If the right interest was taken in our
city of the dead this would be taken
care of.
| Let every one interested help along
the movement for more beautiful
ieemetery. We have beautiful trees,
but every lot should be mown and
taken care of and every avenue kept
lcIean and level. The fault lies mostly
with our own people, who should take
an interest and raise money if need

COMMENCE NOW
Editor Pilot:

Editor Pilot:
| wish to approve of the Pilots ar
icles on preparing for another epi-
demic Of the 'fiu" this fall, and the
citizens Of Wausau should take heed.
1t is coming, and now is the time to
prepare.
Last Friday twenty cases of the
"fiu" were reported In Chicago, with
one death. What does this mean
Nothing less than 1t Is going to
spread. No matter how much we may
try to console ourselves that the dis
ease will be mild this winter; 1--WE
know what to do and it will not
amount to much, anyway" and such
pipe dreams. The fact is the flu will
be with us.
AS the Pilot has said, 1t will, be In
sisted upon that cases be isolated. If
this is done thoroughly from the start,
| II Is the belief of many the epidemic
can be kept down. But how is it to
be done?
II one member of family is taken
down, unless he is hustled immediate
ly to hospital, the rest of the fam
| lily will be exposed. No one will deny
this; and like last fall and winter,
there will not be enough buildings
and nurses and doctors to take care OF
the sick.
| Let our health officer, land we un-
derstand that the city has an able
man In this position this year, lay
out plan, NOW. In securing neces-
sary rooms; arranging for nurses
graduated and otherwise; have some
system to it, whereby mild cases car
be cared for by those who have little
training so that the experienced grad
uated nurses will have the time te
give to serious cases, if the emergency
arises.
i This will take a little money. We
have raised money by subscription
for the Red Cross, for the Salvation
Army and other good causes, now lei
a movement be started and raise 9
few thousand dollars to prepare fol
the epidemic which is sure to be will
us again this winter.
The reader of this article, perhaps
may be the first one, stricken witt

In the death of Mrs. Marie McReyn-
Olds, wife of Frank McReynOlds, our
little city again mourns the loss of one
who ever was held the associations of
the community close at heart. The
end came peacefully Monday afer-
noon at u few minutes to four, follow
ing a long illness from a complica-
tiOn of diseases.

airy 28th, 1868, at Biron. She came to
MOsinee when but q little girl of thir-
teen, and from that time on was a con-
tinuous resident of the village. She
was united in marriage to Frank Nc

who died about eleven years ago. Be
sides the bereaved husband deceased
is survived by one sister, Mr.. VIM.
Westenberg OF Milwaukee, and three
brothers, George of Mosinee; William
and Joseph of Richland, Wash.
Gone from our sight, but because
life and love is stronger than death,
she is with us still. She is still the
wife of the devoted husband, who Law
ished every care, every consideration
and every hope upon her welfare; she
is SJlll the companion OF MIN WHO

the hour of the funeral every business
place in the city was closed, and the
gathering at the last earthly service
.or mortal soul was large and charac-
terized by a feeling of reverence and
sincere appreciation of the loss the
home and community sustains. The
floral tributes were profuse and beau

mediums we have of conveying the
true feelings of the human heart. May
time bring Its resignation and may
the shores of eternity that receives
this soul surround il with everlasting
sunshine and flower.

tention to the provisions of Chapter
667, Laws of 1919, providing bonus
to be paid to Wisconsin soldiers for
service during the war against Ger
many and to request that publicity be
given to the fact that the Service Rec
ognition Board desires that eacn SOL
dier or nurse make application for
blanks on which to make his claim at
once.
The law also provides that the bonus
be paid to the heirs OF deceased SOL
diers, the surviving widow, child or
children, mother or dependent father,
in the order named; the Board re-
quests that the heirs communicate
with the Service Recognition Board,

fecting their claims.
This procedure of requiring applica-
tion for these forms to be made by
the claimants is necessary as nearly
all of the records in regard to this
military service were required to be

The STATE FAIR
Marathon County Won the County Cup
and the Silver Trophy was Pre-.
sented by the Milwaukee Journal

The state fair at Milwaukee, which
commenced on Monday, broke all rec
ords for attendance. On Monday the
attendance was 56.743 as against 49
! 995 last year. Tuesday the attendance
i was 5000 more than last year; We'd
nesday 10000 more; Thursday, 10000
more and Friday
The exhibit of corn was the best
| ever known in the state. The same
can be said of agricultural and stock
exhibits. Prof. Moore, one of the
judges at the Minnesota state fair, said
that these exhibits far exceeded the
Minnesota state fair in every way.
Those who attended from Wausau
and there were many, say the state
fair was the best. in every particular
which they had attended in years
There were 10000 automobiles parked
at one time on the grounds.
Marathon county won the big silver
cup for the best county exhibit. The
Milwaukee Journal in mentioning the
success Of this county says:
Marathon county for the third time
has won the big silver trophy pre-
sented by the Milwaukee Journal for
the best county exhibit at the Wis
cOnsin State Fair.
"The presentation was made Thurs
day morning by Henry c. Campbell OF
the Journal of Lacrosse couny.
Later, ii was discovered that La
Crosse county, through an error OF
computation to determine points of ex-
cellence, had received too many cred
its on its forage crop. The error was
not due to the judges of the county
exhibit or the clerks, but was due to
mistake on the basis of computation
by Lacrosse county. When this was
found La Crosse Immediately carried
the cup over to Marathon county, with
its warmest greetings.
We're mighty glad to have won the
cup again." said ]. d. Christie, Scho-
field. There are no hard feelings
between Lacrosse county and our own
because Lacrosse county admits that
the error was her cwn."
Was Previous Winner
The cup was won on two previous
occasions by Marathon county, was
won for two years by st. Croix county
and one year by Sauk county.
Marathon led with 2.434 points.
Other leading exhibits In the order
fixed by the judges were: Lacrosse,
2,432; Shawano, 1888; Polk, 1925;
Oneida, 2,2s7; Sauk, 2,2S5; Oconto
2,24S and Wood 2,237.
The award was judged by E. L.

This makes the seventh time that
Marathon couny has won first place
among the counties of the state, In
| fact, it has won out every time it has
made a determined effort to win. II
has gone into the contest several
times with the full knowledge that

JACK FROST APPROACHES

By giving attention to facts estab-
lished by the Weather Bureau of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, farmers and gardeners often may
save crops and money by protecting
their paintings from frost.
For instance, valley of depression
may be a regular catch-all for frosts.
while a hill beside it may be visited
much less frequently. There is a
well-recognized tendency for the air
near the surface In depressions or
more or less inclosed valleys to be-
come denser and colder than that on
nearby hillsides, which increases the
frost risk in the lowlands. The les
son from these facts is that early and
tender crops should, so far as prac-
ticable be confined to crests, hillsides
and mountain sites, and later and
harder crops should be planted in
lowlands and valleys.
Notes on Frosts" which is Farmers
Bulletin 104 of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, discusses this
subject in detail, and may be obtained
free on application to the department.
The Weather Bureau is preparing to
issue another popular bulletin on this
subject
