Prize Shrinks in Value.

The Junction City people who
were members of the pool which
was declared winner of the Hotel
Northern at Chippewa Falls as a
result of the drawing on July 4,
may find before their claim is salts
fed that their $500, 900" prize
has dwindled down to a mere SOS,
900, or possibly TO nothing.
A report has reached Madison
that there were liens approximate
ing SI62 900 against the fine hotel
in Chippewa Falls which proved
to be white elephant" to the
stockholders. It is said an agree
ment was reached between the
stockholders and the local Elks,
whereby fifty members of the Elk
lodge agreedto assume or guarantee
the payment of the liens by raffline
Oft the hotel at 81 per ticket. 1t
was expected to sell from 400. 600
to 500, 900 tickets, but instead, il
IS said, the sales were little more
than $500, 900 with expenses in
conducting the rattle running into
the thousands.
Under the agreement, it is said,
the hotel was TO be given with
clear title to the holder of the
lucky ticket, but in order to do so
the fifty men who signed the guar
antee would be compelled to put up
about s., 900 each and that forty
two of them repudiated the agree
ment.
The questions arising are can
the stockholders of the hotel hold
the 50 men of the Chippewa Falls
lodge OF klks to the agreement?
Can the holder of the lucky ticket
compel the Elks to turn the hotel
over to him with clear title?
Under the circumstances it is
held here that the most equitable
way out of the difficulty in Chip.
pewa Falls would be for the Elks
to turn over the net receipts, said
to be about Sos, 900, 10, the holder
of the lucky ticket. As several
men had entered into a pool they
would each receive several thou-s
sand dollars aud in that way every
one could be satisfied. Stevens

Bounty on Gophers in Bayfield, County

Gophers are SO numerous in the
town of Barnes, Bayfield, county,
that the town board has taken
steps to get rid of the rodents,
which, it is claimed, commit de
predations among the farmers.
The town board levied s. 900 to
be paid in bounties on the animals,
IS cents to be paid for the pocket
gopher and 10 cents for the striped
variety. 1t is expected that the
bounties will attract the attention
of hunters and that the rodents will
shortly be considerably reduced in
numbers. The offering of bounties
and levying to raise the money for
the purpose is declared extraordin-
AIRY proceeding on the part Of a
town government.

dends on both classes of stock.
The figures will surprise no
body who has followed the course
of the steel trade since last autumn
They will no doubt be differently
interpreted by different people,
some of whom will cite the pro-
gressive decrease in earnings up to
the present month as evidence that
the real industrial reaction has not
yet eliminated.
Two things must always be kept
in mind however-on that the
steel trade was the last of all TO
yield to the forces making for
lower prices and curtailed produc-
ton and would therefore logically
be the last to complete the read

downward plunge and the recovery
are apt TO be more swift and

SALOON BARS MUST BE
JUNKED BY NEXT MONDAY
State Dry Chief Gives Saloon Keepers
Until Monday TO Comply with
SeversOn Enforcement Law.

Madison Organization of saloon
keepers in several cities to fight the
Severson enforcement law calling
for removal of all screens and of
bars over which Misunderstanding
liquors are sold, was met by an
ultimatum Thursday from w.
Stanley Smith, prohibition COM
missioner.
We assume that everyone in
tends to comply with the law as
adopted by the legislature, he
said, 1t is my belief that reported
organizations such as those in
Sheboygan and Manitowoc will
disintegrate rather rapidly after
Aug =
Commissioner Smith will give
saloon keepers until Monday TO
put their Establishments in con-
formity with requirements of the
law. In several parts of the state
district attorneys have set the date
earlier and have met with com
pliance.
Mr.. Smith pointed out that
there is little basis for any action
against the law on constitutional
grounds. The legislature has the
constitutional right to stipulate
conditions on which license is to
be granted, he said.
Sheboygan saloon keepers this
week met and raised $3.50 as a
fund to fight the removal of bars
and screens from their establish
ments. Saloon owners at Man
itowoc also met to perfect similar
organization.
District attorneys throughout
the state are reporting that saloons
are removing screens and making
provisions either to do away with
bars or to set up tables in order to
eliminate service over their stand
ing bars. There is little evidence
that enforcement officers will find
a general attempt to evade the law,
according to Commissioner Smith.

Furthermore, the net earnings in
June were 1907, 900 less than in

WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE.

In all reasonable time the treaty with Germany
should. be confirmed by the senate. II any consider
able discussion should be had for purposes of enlight-
eminent time should be taken. The provisions are
plain and simple and well understood. If the Demo
crnts insist on playing politics in the matter, a way
should be found to shut them off. The Baltimore
American, well says:
"The essential difference between the treaty now
under discussion and the Versailles treaty is that Mr..
Harding has given the people of the United States
just about the sort of pact they wanted and Mr.. Will
son brought homo a pact that they most certainly did
not want.
"This is a nearly self-evident fact
"On the other hand, the senate of the United States
is as fairly entitled to scrutinize a treaty of which Sec
Rotary Hughes is the negotiator as it was to examine
into the character of the treaty which the then Sec
rotary Lansing should have been the negotiator, but
wasn't If the Hughes treaty does not provide what
the people think it provides, the fact should be I'M
covered. The most profitable, instructive discussion
ever held in the United States senate probably was
that which gradually laid bare. by the logic of the as
snult and the weakness and contradictions of the de-
Tense, the pitfalls Mr.. Wilson had prepared for Amer

ECHOES.

II we could have ten days Of New England Puritan
viewpoint at this particular time, we should like 10
apply it to the Arbuckle incident. and watch the re-
suit We are satisfied that there would be a result.
and further satisfied it would not accord with the
California viewpoint We leave you to imagine the
ancient New England notion, while contemplating the
modern California view presented by the Chicago
Tribune:
The women Of San Francisco first tried to put a
rope on Fatty Arbuckle and then relented and the
women Of Los Angeles now pin a rose on him. In
the swing from ropes to roses the marginal lunacy Of
American sentiment covered its natural arc. Re
spectability remains in the background and is not
registered. The impressions are created by the sob
sisters who arise to lynch and remain to love.
For a few days Fatty was a hound and now he Is
a hero Reports of what the Hollywood movie people
did when he returned to Los Angeles to get hs roses.
or Of what n conspicuous element OF them did, indi-
cate that the movie business In taking its character
bath intends to use Mr.. Arbuckle as the soap.
FOLK must now be prepared to learn that Fatty
was one of the early joiners of the Anti-Saloon league,
that the reported booze party was a Sunday school
picnic, and that the girl died of acute Indigestion. The
American pendulum is hitting either one side Of the
wall or the other.
ITO such extent as Los Angeles outside of the
movie business is pinning roses, the consideration may
be the climate. This case was bad for the climate.
There is a California disposition to regard things
which are bad for the climate as nonresident. It was
not an earthquake. It was a fire"
