LETTERS TO THE EDIToR
Arhe ofsam 6f ths foMt,,

MT. Editor. We were somewhat amused when he read the letter in Fiji days Bulletin signed Justice"
 We are told in the letter that the men who acted as jurors On the Potter cider case, and, who, 1t seems, by i!fr verdict
 want Potter to continue selling cider; are the cream of the town
 What q compliment to the rest of the residents of. the town of Griswoid! sus- tice tells us in that letter that tne soon CT this case is out of the 9ay the bet
 ter for the community. We think tic
 sooner the 12S barrels of cider a.e dump ed into the river tne better for the com
 nunfty, Justice likens those wit5 are opposed to cider selling and S6 criticised the verdict of the jury, to those wllo cfucifed 6iif Saviour What q e6npafi-
 son We have no idea who Justice is but if he will write another letter to The Bulletin and sign his name to it, the writer of this letter will do the same. The writer of this letter has lived many years and has never taken a drink of, booze fiji his life and ke apRotas fio one in selling booze. He was once d
 resident of the town of Griswo.d, bu: a sad change has taken piacs ii tfiSt town,
 since then, that is, if the cream of the town now uphofds Mir. Potter or anyone else in selling cider and making as many drdnks as possible, and bringing ] sorrow misery and disgrace to as many 1 homes as possible. Mir Potter we learn has already commenced making cider for another years business, thinking no doubt, that the cream 6f the town wffi continue to help him out if fie should
 again get into trouble. It certainly :akes i all Kinds of people to make world like this old world Of ours

An Expensive Wreck.

A wreck that is estimated will
cost the c. G. N. Railway $4,000
took place at the Wolf River
bridge on the Pelican line run
ming into this city last Friday af-
ternoon, when seven carloads OF
logs went into the river. The en-
CINE had crossed safely and the
coaches at the end of the train
had not reached the bridge so no
one was injured, but the bridge
was a total wreck and stopped all
trains from running on that line
until yesterday morning. 1t is
reported that logs on a car work
ed loose and began sliding off the
train and as they reached the
bridge became tangled in the
wheels and bridge and made a
terrible mess. The bridge was 300
feet long and as an entire new one
is required to be built it takes
considerable time, although prac-
tically finished now. All mail
was re-routed over the 500, al
though some of it arrived three
DAYS late.-Forest Republican.

opinion that this section is rather
dangerous. If this fellow would

Wisconsin has had in many years,

think we were real awfully bad
