We agree heartily with the edi-
tors of the Washburn Times and the
EAshland. Press in their remarks con-
corning the officials of the Omaha
railroad in the way they handled the
recent snow blockade. True, it
twas the worst storm ever expert
enced, something unusual and all
that, but we cannot forget the fact
the flame ducks" at Spooner or who
ever were responsible made no effort
whatever to open the Spooner to
| Ashland line until Saturday after
two days of perfectly good weather
| in which the line could have been
opened, and then when they did
start out they had an old wreck of a
rotary .plow that they had fished out
of some scrap pile and that broke
down every few miles. After they
got to Mason, they let the side plow
90 ahead and it made Ashland in a
short time without trouble. 1t
looks like mighty poor service for
this end of the line, and if this is
an example of "private ownership"
deficiency" they have lost many
friends of that theory, up this way.
Perhaps something might be gain
ed by the towns along this line
organizing for that purpose OF en-
ldeavoring to show, the so-called Off
Gals who have these things in
charge, that we are not going to
stand for it, and that we are en-
titled to reasonable service.
Jerod Day, Ashland civil engineer
was in town between trains Satur-
day. Mr.. Day has been working
on a plan of getting out some new
plat books for Bayfield, county but
states that he is not getting enough
encouragement to go ahead with the
work. Owing to the heavy expense,
the printing bill alone exceeding
$500, he feels that he cannot under
take the work until he has orders for
at least 100 books. The plat books
now in use are some 20 years old
and of little use, besides the supply
is exhausted. If each town in the
county buy five it would make the
quota required. The business men
at Mason have signiled their willing
ness to take on the quota OF the
towns in the territory they serve.

TOWN BOARD TALKS
OVER TOWN PROBLEMS

not proper for the Town to stand
this expense for several reasons,
chiefly, on account of the expense in
which there is always a tendency to
take advantage of the source of
revenue, the fact that certain terri
tory may be neglected, and if this
is done, it is only fair that every
be opened so that no par
tiality is shown. The Board felt
that the settlers should organize in
parties and agree to keep their dis
trict open, not leaving it to a few
to do the work, but apportioning it as
fairly as possible, and these who
then were tagging, could take the
consequences. If the public expect
the Board to reduce expenses and
try to lower the high taxes it IS
necessary that they cooperate with
them. Those who kick on high taxes
should remember that it is mostly up
to the taxpayers themselves to low
err taxes, and if they are looking for
a little "pork" out of the barrel, they
must expect that there will be many
others who will look for their chunk"
The Board is willing to do anything
within reason to help lower taxes,
and it is the duty of the people to
help them do so.

SNOW REMOVAL ON MAIL
ROADS PROVES OBSTACLE
Board Members Say That if
Taxes are to be Lowered
Spirit of Cooperation Must
Be Practised by All.

The Town Board of the Town of
Mason held their regular monthly
meeting last Saturday. Besides ar
ranging for the caucus acting as
caucus committee selected at the last
caucus, the principal topic for dis
cussion was the question of snow
removal. The past two years have
been free from this question, but
prior to that time, every year that
any substantial snow storm happen
ed along, the same old question of
how to apportion the expense and
arrange for opening the highways
has always been difficult one owing
to the territory that must be open
ed for mail routes, part of which lies
some distance between settlers. The
Board was of the opinion that it is

did not take them long to dig out
and in some places it was mans
job" The Maple Ridge fellows were
the first in the town, outside of
those living within radius of a
few miles, but it was not long until
they came in from every direction.
The farmers tackled discouraging
looking job and came thru in fine
shape. However they have still
worse difficulty to face from now on
when the deep snow in the roads
is thawing and sleighs and horses
cut thru. Would it not be good
time to start an agitation for the
wide sleigh, so that the horses would
not be crowding each other with pos
sible consequences?
