GEORGE CLARK TELLS OF

George w. Clark, formerly of this

The Pilot this week as follows: II
went to the Flamingo hotel Ca famous
southern hostelry) to call on Charles
Winton on February s, and as soon
as / got there Charles Edgar came
forward and asked if | was Mr.. Clark
from Wausau | was then introduced
to Mrs. Edgar. Mrs. Winton came in
and as they had their automobile
out ready for a drive, / was invited
to go with them. We rode around for
about an hour and ! learned that the
two men were partners in the lumber
business.
Il thought Mr.. Edgar looked real
we'll and when we parted, / said: i
hope we will meet again. Mr.. Win
ton replied: If we don't meet again
in this world. George, we may in the
next. Inside of week Mr.. Edgar
had died and his body was shipped
to his home in Essex Falls, n j., for
interment." All three men me ntioned
formerly lived in this city.
Mr.. Clark further says I'VE have
not had any frost in Miami to speak of
this year nor for the two previous
years. | have not met anyone from
Wausau this winter. The weather
now is like June in Wausau. Our
county fair opens today. | hope Wau-
sau people will not get frozen out al
together this winter"
Evidently Mr. Clark continues to be
as solicitous of the Christian religion
as ever for he enclosed in his letter a
slip issued by the Tourists Bible class
of the First Presbyterian church OF
Miami, of which William Jennings
Bryan is the teacher. Last year the

II. c. McCrossen, receiver, and John
w. Miller, register, were the last Re-
publican incumbents OF the offices
here. Both Mr.. Schmidt and Mr.. Bey-
reis were Democratic appointees.
Mr. Schmidt's report in 1919 showed
something around 5,400 acres of land
I'm Wisconsin still owned by the fed
eral government and still subject to
homestead and timber and stone dis
position. Through his efforts to re-
cord all unrecorded land, the report
in 1920 remained over 5000 acres de-
spite the fact that there was large
sale the year previous and this con-
tinued to be true in 1921. There will
be land still to sell eight or ten years
hence, Mr.. Schmidt predicts, hut the
office can't be supported. he says, un-
less the government pays a full sal
airy instead of depending upon fees
and commissions to furnish a part
Of the salary of representative.
There are at present ninety-eight
land offices in twenty-five different
states.

FRENCH TRADE TO
SOVIET Is SLIGHT
Political Situation is Blamed
for Lack of Sound
Trade Relations.

PARIS. Jan. IA - England has
bought six million pounds sterling
worth OF Russian products through
the Soviet Cooperative society since
the beginning Of 1921 During the
same period. Germany has pur-
chased six billion marks worth
through the Commisariat OF Foreign
Trade. This has been made known
i'm Paris by Ivan SkObeleff, ex-min-
lister of the Russian provisory gov
eminent, now agent in France for
the Soviet Cooperative society.
AS regards business with France
Skobeleff said very little has been
done mostly on account of the lack
of necessary technical conditions.
The largest part of the dealings war
done indirectly. either in countries
bordering Russia, or IN Scandinavia,
or even through foreign firms. How
ever. recently a fairly important bar
gain was concluded for the direct
sale OF automobile accessories. es-
pecially tires. Other orders have
been received and are being attended
to.
"Russia's foreign trade. pointed

policy and since some commercial
accords were concluded by the so
