Washburn Fans Planning Organi.
zation of a Strong Team
Meeting to Be Held in the Near Future
for Purpose Of Organizing
Team.

With the advent of spring
weather the base ball germ has
infested a number of the base
base ball fans of the city and
there is now talk of the organi-
zation Of a cracking good base
ball team for the coming season.
Fred Joanis. who was manager
of the team last season, is also
being talked of as manager for
the team the coming year and
with Mr.. Joanis' push and hustle
he ought to get together team
that will defend the honors of
the local diamond the coming
season.
Last year Mr.. Joanis organized
a team after the season was well
advanced and before the season
was over he had a rafting good
organization, and with an early
start this season the team ought
to be hummer.
There is plenty of good base
ball material in the city this sea-
son, many of the boys who were
overseas, having returned to the
lcity and a good article of ball
ought to be had.
1t is planned to hold a meeting
in the future to talk matters
over and arrange for strong
team. Ne

Election of Delegates
Electors Of All Parties to Vote.

On Tuesday April 9th, all
electors will have the privilege
Of voting for delegates to nation
al party conventions. The
national convention of the Demo
crat party will be held at San
Francisco and the Republican
convention at Chicago. There
will be elected on the above date
twenty.six delegates 20 each
convention four at large from
the state and two from each
congressional district. There
are two sets of delegates nomi-
mated on the Republican ticket.
Those styling themselves La
Toilette Republican aud the
others which are designated AS
Uninstructed. Senator La
Toilette of whom we have heard
very little since his obstruction
methods were publicly d..
nounced during the war wants
to control the delegation at
Chicago. In other words affairs
in the convention might shape
themselves SO that he might
crawl under the tent as q full
fedged presidential possibility.
OF course he would attract those
who were against the war, the
management Of it, and every
thing connected with the won
derful work done during the
past three years. We do not
believe the people of Wisconsin
will elect a LaFollette delegation
We now have Berger. Let that
be enough. The Times desires
to say that it's Influence will be
directed toward Lhe election Of
the Unlnstructed delegation,
which is headed by Governor
Phillips, Chairman West of Llle
Republican State Central Com
mittee and w. H. Hatton and
Otto Bossard. In this district

To Be Hired Within the Next Thirty
Days According to Mr.. Beers
Will Be Used in Dismantling and Also
Arranging Property at
Works.

Upwards of two hundred ad-
ditional men are to be given en-
ployment at the plant of the Du-
Pont company at Barksdale
within the next thirty days ac-
cording to information given out
at the plant yesterday afternoon.
The hiring of the men has al
ready been begun and will con-
tinue until the DuPonts have a
large enough force to complete
the work which they have under
way.
A part of the crew will be
used in tine work of dismantling
buildings now at the plant for
which the company has no fur
ther use while the rest of the
force will be Used for re-arrang-
ing equipment and materials.
The rumor has been current
about the city the past week to
the effect that some new con-
struction work was to be done
at the plant but this rumor
could not be confirmed at the
plant, but the information is
given out to the effect that the
two hundred additional men will
be employed.
The employment of these ad-
ditional men will take up much
of the available labor in the city
and ought to liven up business
in the city to considerable ex-
tent.

Road on County System at Sioux
River Goes Out
Road Between Washburn and Bayfield,
is Now ImpAssabIe. Immense
Anoant Of Water.

Spring foods which caused
the water in the Sioux River
slough to rise rapidly the latter
part Of last week caused damage
to the county and state road at
that point that will run close 10
one thousand dollars, and in or
der to repair the road it may be-
come necessary to put in bridge
over the slough to take care Of
the water at that point.
During the winter months
Bayfield, county filled this slough
with rock and gravel and lefta
small opening through which the
water could pass. County road
officials believing that only .
small amount of water would
have 20 be taken care Of at this
point. left only a small opening
through which the water could
pass, and when the spring thaW
came the water casae down off
the fills and raised so rapidly
that the culyerts were not large
enough to take care Of the water
and the roadway went out for q
distance Of about thirty-eight
feet.
When the I'LL was made il was
the belief Of road officials that
the slough J contained only the
back water, from the lake and AZ
there was but little current it
was thought a small opening
would take care of this. With
the spring thaws the water came
down off the adjacent lands and
the water in the slough became
80 high that it went over the top
of the roadway and the break
came during the afternoon and
while the fill made last winter
remained intact, yet the road
way adjoining washed away.
1t may become necessary to
construct a small bridge at this
point and if this work has to be
done the road to Bayfield, will be
closed during the spring months
as there is no detour except out
the Washington avenue road and
through the Hochdanner farm,
and this is so far out Of the way
as to make a detour impractic-
able.
