THOMAS WINS
JUDGE CONTEST
Veteran Jurist Leads Field of Four
Candidates and Returned to
Bench For Another Term.
FLANAGAN IN SECOND
POSITION
4 c. Fians gan Close on the Heels of
Winner, Flandrena Third and
Lennon Fourth.

In a spirited contest that had the
most able political prognosticators
Guessing, with the result in doubt
snntil the majority of the outside
nrecincts had been heard from, Griff
Thomas, veteran Iron county jurist,
was chosen for another term as
Judge of the municipal court at
Tuesdays election.
Early returns Tuesday evening
showed that the race was between
Thomas and Flanagan and after the
six wards in Hurleyhad been tabulat-
ed. showing that Thomas carried
the city by plurality of 116, his
supporters were confident of victory,
at the same time knowing that re-
turns from the outside precincts
might change the result Thomas,
however, kept a lead of better than
hoo votes over Flanagan in the re-
turns from outside precincts, and his
election was assured when the vote
in the town of Kimball showed that
he carried that precinct and had a
lead of 20 votes over Flanagan in
the town of Knight, one of the last
precincts to be heard from. The
unofficial count gives Thomas a
lead Of 1916 votes.
Thomas carried the First, Third,
Fourth and Fifth wards in the city
of Hurley, and the towns of Ander-
son, Quincy, Kimball, Montreal and
Mercer and tied with Flanagan in
the town of Sherman.
Flanagan received a plurality in
the Second ward in Hurley and the
towns of Carey, Oma and Saxon and
the village of Hamilton.
Flandrena got the big end of the
vote in the town of Knight and tied
with Lennon in the town of Sher-
man,
Lennon carried the Sixth ward,
was runner-up in the Third and
Fifth wards and got big vote in
the town of Knight.
Between Lennon and Flanagan
honors were divided in the city of
Hurley, each getting 200 votes.
Following is the unofficial tabulat-
ed vote:

LAND OLAKES ASSOCIATION
OPENS CAMPAIGN
Plans Completed for Extensive Ad-
vertising Campaign in Middle
and Southwestern Cities.

The beauties of Northern Wiscon,
sin with its remaining sections of
virgin timber, its lakes, its trails.
I will soon he known to millions of
newspaper readers throughout the
Southwest and Middle West. Pro
badly never in the history of the
state, has such an excessive booster
campaign been proposed as that
launched by the Wisconsin Land
O'Lakes association, a recently in
corporated organization to boost
Northern Wisconsin. Plans are
completed for an extensive advertis-
ing campaign in six of the large
Middle and Southwestern cities.
Literature, road maps and travel
data are now being printed and will
be ready for distribution within the
next few weeks. The headquarters
of the association is in this city and
William D. Common, Jr., of Laona,
Wis, is president Of the organiza-
ton.
This year when the tourist starts
for the north lands, he will find in
Chicago and Milwaukee completely
equipped information bureau, tell
ing him where he can go and how
ne can get there. An album con
tanning illustrations of the resorts
which are members Of the organiz-
alton and a miniature map showing
the lake the resort is on and the
roads leading to it has been compiled
this winter and viii be in the head
quarters at Rhinelander as well as
in the hands of each association
member
Two million people a week will
be reached by the advertising Of
this association. In addition to this,
more than $4,000 road maps and
$4,000 folders viii be circulated
among tourists and summer re-
sorters.
According to Mr.. Conner, Moth
ing has been left undone to reach
the prospective tourist and to ex-
toll to him the beauties of Wis
eonsin and the northern lakes. We
see in this campaign, a bigger thing
for northern Wisconsin than the
4 summer resort business. This cam
paign is going to benefit every
wholesaler and retailer doing bust
ness in this section Of the state. "

organization may be gained from

NEW CHIEF OF
POLICE is NAMED
Neil Hurley Appointed Chief of
Police to Succeed Frank Dardas,
Who Resigned.
TWO NEW POLICE OFFICERS
Appointments of Louis Rondeau and
Chas. Boriski Approved by
Council Wednesday.

Chief of Pohce-Neil Hurley.
Police offieer-Louis Rondeau.
Police officer-Chas Boriski.
Police officer-Jack Faul
The above is the present personnel
of the Hurley police force. three new
members being added as the result Of
action taken at the regular monthly
meeting of the city council Wednes-
day evening when the resignation of
Chief of Police Frank Dardas was ac-
cepted and Officer Anton Gastaldi
VISA busted, followed by the appoint
ment of the new members listed
above, Officer Jack Faul was re-
tanned on the force
The naming of new chief Of
police and two officers is believed to
be the result of some sort of
rumpus, although the nature of it is
not known. Rumor has it that
disagreement between Mayor Len
non and Chief Dardas arose over
some matter in connection with the
duties Of the chief, 1t has also been
limited that the differences between
the mayor and chief arose over
politics, Mayor Lennon having been
a candidate for municipal judge at
the recent election.
The report was current last week
that Chief Dardas had resigned or
been fired on account Of differences
with the mayor and other members
of the police force This was deni-
ed however, and it was pointed out
that since the chief was still on the
job there could be no foundation for
the rumor.
AT any rate it is now taken for
granted that Dardas resigned under
fire, indicating that everything was
not as it should be in the police de-
partment. The BUSTING of Officer
Gastaldi further enhanced this be-
lief
The new chief has been acting as
police officer in the Cary location
for the past few years, being one of

many years past the anniversary cell
ebrations have featured unusual
things, such as special bargain offer

gifts of flowers, cts. But this year
there will be all these, besides many
other things which will make a visit
TO the store during any day of this
week a real pleasure, as well as a
profit, and the opportunity of seeing
the latest and best merchandise to be
found anywhere in the country.
The Wilson company is an outfit
ting palace for the entire family, for
not only the women and little girls
can get anything for their wardrobes
or the home, but the men and boys are
not neglected in the general scheme
of things. Clothing, hats, shoes
and furnishings have long been a
special part of the store, which has
no peer in the west.
Visitors to the anniversary celebra-
ton, as well as any other time, are
invited and encouraged to take adj
vantage Of the rest rooms and other
con~veniences with which the store viii

modious quarters being needed, and
since that time has occupied the BUSH
ness block where it will hold its fifty
seventh anniversary.
The name of the first store was the
East Gallatin," and the original firm
was Wilson, Rich & fuller. Later
General Wilson purchased the inter-
ests of Mr.. fuller. In 1893 the COM
pany vas incorporated and become
known as The Wilson company, with
the following officers: President
General L. S. Wilson; vice president,
F. A. Fielding; and secretary-treas-
urer, Henry Fielding. In 1905, H. A.
Fielding died and C. w. Jackson was
elected OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. In 1906,
F. o. Wilton was elected secretary
and Mr.. Jackson remained as treas
urer. These relative positions were
occupied till the death Of the general
four years ago. Fred Williams, fol
three years prior to the death of the
founder, General Wilson, occupied ths
position of manager.

shopping trips. 1t is not necessary
to do trading at the Wilson company
to receive this courtesy-for it's the
Wilson company's way to make peo-
pie feel it is doing all it can to be of
service and thereby make friends.
Everybody in Bozeman and this
section of the state of Montana knows
of the Wilson company, how it was
established in 1866 through the eff
forts of the late General L. S. Will
son. There are a few of the old set
tiers in this city who can recall when
the venturesome Wilson, fuller and
Rich, ambitious to get into the peace
full pursuits of business following the
Civil war, planned in the far east to
journey to the far west and become
piponeers in trade.
Messrs. Rich and fuller were the
first to start, for General Wilson was
obliged to remain in New York for a
period before he could get his dis,
charge from the army. The first two
journeyed to Omaha, which was then
a frontier city, where they outfitteu,
and then with their supplies for gen.
eral merchandising took the "cov-
cred wagon route to the territory Of
Montana. Ten mules and three wag,
ons were the means of transportation.
The outfit left Omaha, May 80, 1866,
and reached Bozeman September 2,
of the same year.
A few weeks later. the pioneer mer-
chants moved to Bozeman and set up
their business in a log cabin. The
following year, 1856, General Wilson,
who had joined his partners, built the
first frame business building In Boze-
man. This building was occupied till
1884, when the general erected a pre-
tentious brick block, also the first OF
it's kind In the city, ard for that mat,
ter in this part Of the state. This
building is now occupied by the Grow
lev secondhand store, and the year.
