Or in other words the City Council
voted Mayor Peavey's paper $28.25
for running notice to collect $4,000.
1t furnished city clerk to make out
the license receipt, in the bargain,
and had an actual cash loss of 1925.
The claim was allowed at the June
meeting of the city council.
Stand up Mr.. Swanby, face the peo-
pie, you were the man that made the
motion to make the News the Off
cial paper Of the city Of Washburn,
likewise you were the man that urged
Herb. Borggren to leave for home
and then pushed through another mo-
ton to make the News the official
paper of the school board. Ex-
plain if you can how you are going
to get money enough for the city to
run it's public schools when you vote
to spend $28.25 to collect claim of
$4,000. You are holding down two
jobs, one as Alderman of the Bra
ward and also as member of the
school board, when the Attorney Gen
eral has ruled these positions are
overlapping and cannot be held by
the same person. Bryan, Monroe
and Anderson ere also members of
both council and school board. Hau-
gen holds down position as Alder
man and was also handed the job
as janitor of the schools. Why not
pass around some of these jobs to
the poor laboring men who are having
difficulty in paying their taxes, IN
stead of hogging all the jobs.

are beginning to frequent the bath
ing beaches near the city and every
day sees large numbers of children,
as we'll as grown-ups enjoying the
pastime. The result is an increase
in the sale of bathing suits.
There was a time in Washburn
when bathing suits were a drug on
the market. That was in the good
old days when only boys visited the
old swimming hole, but now the men
and women as well as the boys are
enjoying the sport. The bathing suit
business from this time on is ex-
pected to be brisk.

REFUSES TO REVERT CASE
TO CIRCUIT COUT
Holds That u. s. Government
Has Power to Determine
What Railroad Shall Do in
Abandonment.

The State of Wisconsin lost the
first skimnish in the case to hold
the Battle Axe road for Bayfield,
county when Judge C. z. Luse of
Superior denied the motion Of the
courts Of Wisconsin.
case to the courts of Wisconsin.
The Northern Raifc was granted
petition to abandon that portion OF
the line from Cody to Washburn by
the interstate railroad commission,
following hearing in this city. The
people of Bayfield, county petitioned
the Governor Of Wisconsin and the
State Legal DEPARTMENT was placed
on the job at the last minute by the
Governor and they asked that the
case be reverted to the Circuit Court
of Bayfield, county, contending that
the Federal Courts had no jurisdic-
tion in that the traffic over
the line was intrasbate and not inter-
state.
This motion was heard at Superior
last Thursday by Judge Luse, who
denied the motion.
The case is of major Importance to
hundreds Of settlers along the line
in Bayfield, county who depend entire
ly upon this road for the shipment Of
their supplies.
The Battle Axe line, as the Bay
field County branch of the Northern
Pacific is known, was built by the
bayfield, and Iron River Railway
company. The company was aided
by Bayfield, county bonds in the sum
of $240, 900 portion of these bonds
still remain to be paid by Bayfield,
county taxpayers.
Last year the Northern Pacific
Railway company petitic,led the In
terstate Railway Commission for
permission to abandon the road and
a hearing was conducted in this city
during the winter. The railroad
company contended that the branch
line was losing proposition, while
the people of Bayfield, county con-
tended that no effort had ever been
made b ythe company to make the
road pay, and that to abandon the
road after hundreds of settlers had
been sold Land in the region served
by the road, would depreciate the
value of their lands thousands upon
thousands of dollars.
Bayfield, county people put up
great fight to save the Dad and we
are advised from Washington that
had the officials OF the city of Wash
burn displayed as much interest in
saving the road as did citizens from
other sections of Bayfield, county.
this might have had some weight with
the members Of the interstate COM
mission, but for political reasons no
interest was shown by officials Of
Washburn, and Governor Blaine, who
was asked to have the state join
with bayfield, county in fighting the
petition Of the railroad company to
abandon the road, did not take ac-
tion until after the Commission had
granted the application Of the road
for the abandonment.
1t now looks as if it was losing
fight. The Northern Pacific rail-
way company has abandoned service
on the line from Cody to Washburn
and is only serving the territory
nine miles west of Iron River. If
this can be shown to be losing pro-
position the Interstate Commerce
Commission intimate that this part
of the line will also be abandoned.

RUSSIAN SCIENTIFIC
MEN PLAN TO HUNT
FOR IRON DEPOSITS

MOSCOW, Nov 20-The All-Rus-
sian Congress of Physicists has just
held a meeting at Nizhny Novgorod,
where ninety nine papers were pre-
sented reviewing the achievements of
science in Russia and abroad during re-
cent years. Two hundred members
were in attendance-professo engi-
neers, chemists and physicists. The
subjects discussed were phyics and
bio-physics.
An expedition to Eastern Siberia
was projected to make observations Of
magetnic conditions. The object is to
find, perhaps in the valleys of the
Amur and Lena rivers, a tremendous
iron basin hidden there.
A movement was started to begin
again the publication Of scientific
works in Russia.

CAMP AICN Is
LAUNCHED FOR
CHURCH GIVING

CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-To awaken the
conscience and intelligence OF the
people Of the Protestant Episcopal
church to the needs set out in program
adopted at the Portland General Con-
vention, thereby raising the average
of regular giving throughout the Com
munion, is the main object in view IN
the nation wide campaign to be con-
Quoted wholly within the ranks OF
the church, according to a statement
by Chicago headquarters of the de-
nomination.
Results of the campaign in the three
years now closing encourage church
leaders in the belief that the ensuing
three years will be equally successful,
says the statement, quoting the secre-
tary of the field department.
"In the eighty eight dioceses OF the
church in the United States the work
Of informing our people OF the con-
vention program and explaining the
educational methods to the leaders, al
ready is going forward" continues the
statement. "Our reports show en-
thusiasm and determination that will
20 for another big advance in the mis-
sionary, educational and social SER
vice fields"
The program, which fixed budget
of $21 100000 for the next three years
work, will support 5000 missionaries
in America and throughout the world
and carry on the work of religious and
social service to which the church is
committed. A forward program also
was adopted involving an additional
$S,400,OO0 OF which eighty-two per cent
will be spent in the United States and
it's territorial possessions for hospi-
tails, schools, new churches and COM
munity houses, with special emphasis
upon work among Indians, negroes,
mountaineers and mill workers, &C
cording to plans. Americanization
and rural and industrial effort also
come under the program.
An appropriation of 100000 for de-
nominational colleges and for student
work at fifty-five of the great secular
institutions all over the land, is pro-
vided in the program. The budget is
to be raised by quotas in the three
years ending 1925.

A statistical review issued by the
government shows that soldiers be-
longing to the Army OF Occupation
drank wine to the amount of one hun
dred and eighteen million marks The
item does not include 124,733 bottles
Of champagne consumed by the troops.
The review adds that this means a
loss of twenty million marks in wine
taxes, the Armies of Occupation being
tax-free. The consumption of beer
among Allied sildiers has greatly les
sened. The loss of tobacco taxes is
given at two million marks.

The writer proceeds to predict that
Americans and Englishmen, who will
have predominance in the reconstruc-
tion of Russia, will not work for Russia
as did the Germans They will work
for themselves and make Russia an
economic colony"
The only chance that is left to Rus
STA to regain a semblance of indie
pendence, the writer believes, is a
revolution of the European proletaria.
He concludes:
''If there is a revolution in western
or central Europe the Soviet govern
ment has specialized correctly, but if
it does not come Russia will automati-
cally become a capitalistic COLONEL
state"
