neer resident of this city, passed

o'clock at the Ashland General
hospital FROM blood poisoning
caused from getting silver in
his hand some two weeks ago.
Mr.. leighton was taken to the
hospital week ago where his
inger was amputated in an.
effort to save his life, but his

failed until the end came on
Sunday evening.

Methodist church in this city
this afternoon at two O'Clock,
services being in charge of Rev.
D. w. Davis, and interment was
in Woodland cemetary.

til this fall would have been ~
years of age. From 1867 until
May 1877 he was a mem Der of
Col. 3rd Regiment of Artillery
stationed at Fort Jefferson, Fla.
Thirty-four years ago the family
moved to this city where they

ployed by the Spragre interests.
Mr.. Leighton was 8 home
loving man and an excellent
citizen. Besides wife. he leaves
to mourn him, one daughter
Mrs. Charles Anderson of Vir-
ginia, Mimi, and a brother John

The relatives have the sympathy

Going Some

According to the report of
the Road and Bridge Committee
of Bayfield, County read before
the Wednesday meeting of the
County Board the committee is
finding difficulty in establishing
a basis of wages in the county
because of the wide variance in
differept localities, and for this
reason .bor seems to be dis
satisfied. The report says the
more you pay men and the
shorter the hours the less the
interest and the less the work.
The committee seemed to oe up
a stump as to what to do. The
result will probably be a less
amount of road construction
done during the coming season
because of the labor situation.

Government Men We're Here Last
Week Making Inspection
Decide to Locate Wireless Station on
Devils Island Of Apostle
Groupe.s

~
Messrs. Shelover of Washing
ton, D. c.. and Greenleaf of the
Great Lakes Training Station
made a trip among the Apostle
Islands on Wednesday of last
week and inspected the property
of the government on Devils
Island and decided upon the
location for the new Government
wireless station to be estab-
lished on that island to aid navi-
cation on Lake Superior.
The new wireless station will
comprise several buildings and
it is said that construction of
the station will be begun some
time during the month of July.
Many of the lake carriers are
now equipped with wireless out
fits and the government has now
decided to establish station on

MANY WILL
ATTEND HEARING.
All Northern Wis. Towns Interested
in Meeting at Ashland
international Joint Commission on
Waterway to Hold Hearing
Next Tuesday.

Rhinelander. Phillips, Park
Falls, Marengo, Bayfield,, State
Line, Glidden, Washburn and
Mellen are among the towns in
the neighboring counties OF
Northern Wisconsin who have
sigIified their intention of send
ing representatives to Ashland
next Tuesday to attend the
hearing of the international
Joint commission on the Greet
Lakes and st. Lawrence River
Deep Waterway project. Park
Falls writes that a delegation Of
eight has been selected by the
Commercial Club of that place
to be in attendance at the hear
ing, and that the delegation will
come armed with petition
signed by many citizens of that
town who are themselves unable
to get away, but who are just as
keenly interested in the success
of the deep water project as it
they were able to be present at
the hearing. Rhinelander writes
that they will have at least three
representatives present at the
hearing, one of whom will be a
representative of the paper
making industry at that place
and another the head of a large
refrigerator factory. 1t will
probably be one OF the most
representative gatherings of the
industrial interests that has
been together in Northern Wis
consln for some time, and it be-
hooves every citizen, who really
wants to look ahead to the time
when ocean steamers will dock
in CheQuamegon Bay to let the
commission. know that he is
really interested in the success
of such a project, by flying the
colors on the day of the COM
missions visit.

TO KILL OR
NOT TO KILL
Final Action on Cemetery Associ-
alton to be Taken
Lot Owners to Decide JAst What Action
They Wish Taken Toward
Organization.

The first annual meeting OF
the Washburn cemetery associa-
tion was held at the Commercial
Club rooms on Friday evening
of last week, with quite an at
tendance present, and after a
lengthy discussion with regards
to the full merits of the work of
the association it was decided
to adjourn the meeting for two
weeks, or until friday evening,
June 11th, in order that a larger
representation may be present
to kill the association.
If a good many of the folks
who were present at the meeting
are able to represent the feelings
of the rest of the city then un-
doubtedly the city cemetery
will continue to be cared for as
it has been in the past.
So far as anyone is able to
learn there is no one who has
any personal interest in the or
ganization other than a general
interest in having the cemetery
cared for and beautified and
those who were appointed officers
and directors desire to give due
notice that if, after all work has
been done, the representative
people desire to disband the
Association, Friday, June 11th,
will be the time to take action.
1t is hard to believe that many
intelligent people would circulate
rumors such as have been going
the rounds since this organiza-
ton was proposed, for anyone
with the least whit Of common
sense would know that such
rumors are absolutely absurd,
and that bodies could not be re-
moved by directors of the asso-
citation for failure to pay assess
ments which might possibly be |
assessed.
At any rate the directors
would like to see as many lot |
owners present as possible Fri
day, June 11th, in order that |
there may be good sentiment |
in favor of killing or continuing
the association.

Council Sets Date Of June 18th as
Time for Voting
Women as Well as Men are Entitled to
Vote on the Proposition Of Chang
Ing School System

A petition, signed by over FIVE
hundred people. was presented
to the City Council at its meet
ing held on Tuesday evening,
asking that the Council call a
special election of the electors
for the purpose of voting on the
proposition Of changing the
school system of government
from its present form to the dis
trict system of school govern
ment.
Upon reading of the petition
the council voted to hold such
special election at the re gular
polling place on Tuesday, June
10Th.
AT the coming special election
the women of the city will have
equal opportunity with the men
in voting on the the proposition
and as thsre is a good deal of
interest in the question, es-
pecially among the women, it Is
expected that d heavy vote will
be polled.
The purpose of the changing
of the school system of govern
ment from the present form IS
to permit the bonding Of the
city in larger sum than is now
possible in order to raise funds
to construct d new high school
building. If this is done it will
mean that that the tax rate of
the city for school purposes can
be materially raised and that
tax burdens will be materially
increased. 1t is expected that
hard campaign for and against
the proposition will be waged.

Tourist Business

The tourist business for the

of surprising all former years
according to information which
is being received in this locality
and this will probably be the

already starting but will prob
ably not reach its apex until the

on Madeline Island will be filled
