JAPANESE LOAN
FAVOREDBY
TREASURY
U. s. Officials Pleased With
American Participation in
Forthcoming Loan.
By HARRY GUSACK.

American participation in the
Japanese loan is looked upon with
much favor by Treasury Depart
ment officials. while the views
expressed were entirely personal, it
was clear they were pleased that
in the forthcoming operation the
American investment market is ap-
parentyl to move to the position of
senior participator in Japanese gov
eminent bond business, in that the
American offering of $4,000, 900
clearl youtweighs the British offer
ing.
When asked eheir opinion as to
the general conduct of Japanese
government finances, Treasury Off
Gals generally expressed their cor
dlal approval of it. Thy pointed out
that when the earthquake and fire
occurred in September, last, the
general report vas that the Japa
nese treasury would be obliged i'm
medlately to seek outside assistance
in caring for it's pressing require
ments. Reports of impending loans
were rife at the time. But the
weeks and then the months passed
by without any announcement of a
loan, and it is only now, six months
after the disaster, that the Japanese
government seeks the cooperation
of foreign investment markets; thus
indicating that her own cash re-
sources have, according to Japanese
practice, been SO considerable and
SO prudently handled 'as, to enable
her to look after her own needs.
The fact that the proceeds of the
coming loan are to be spent sub
stantially all in American markets
in payment for American materials
and supplies to be used for Japa-
nese reconstruction, is naturally
gratifying to the Administration
here as further stimulus to Ameri.
can industry and commerce.

Asks Rehearing in Bank Case.

A petition for rehearing of the
branch bank case of the First Ma
tional Bank in st. Louis has been
filed by the bank. The institution
seeks a decision on the merits of
the case. The Supreme Courts re-
cent decision related almost entirely
to the question of the juridiction of
the State of Missouri and the effec-
tiveness of State laws in the con-
troll of Federally-chartered national
banks. tt is especially sought to
have the court pronounce concern
ing the difference between additional
offices, limited to tellers' windows
for the receipt of deposits and the
payment of checks, and full-fledged
branches at which loans are made
and securities bought and sold.
Volume of Bank Ciearings Larger.
Debts to individual accounts re-
ported by banks in leading financial
centers for the week ending Feb
ruary 6. 1924, totaled $10,399, 000, 900,
or $3.50 100000 more than the total
report for the preceding week.

Home Town PAPER Best.

Chas. E. Blackwell, the most
merchant in the entire
state of Washington, has faith in
newspaper advertising. He says:
There are many lines of publicity
that the country store can use to
advantage, but the one he can use
to best advantage is his home
town paper. | venture to say that
If the money spent each year for
fancy calendars and other knick-
knack giveaways, were invested
| say invested, not spent or donat-
ed, in carefully planned newspa-
per advertising, the atcual net re-
turns to the advertiser would be
ten times as great, to say nothing
of the advantage the small town
paper would derive from the addi-
tional and much-needed revenue.
And we know that as business
builder it is without an equal in
any town. Wisconsin State Jour

We All Paw.

A member of Congress is quoted
as authority for the statement that
the ordinary private citizen contri-
butes almost nothing to the sup
port of the Federal Government.
Perhaps not directly, but indirect
ly he contributes all the expense.
Taxes are distributed substantial
ly according to wealth, except
where that wealth escapes through
investment in tax-free securities.
But the wealthy charge a proper
tlonately higher interest rate for
their loans or add the amount of
the taxes on to the price of their
services or of what they produce,
and in that way contrive to pass
most of their assessment along to
others. In the end it is divided
pretty evenly over the population.
The cost of government is paid in
every article we purchase, in every
bit of service we hire, and in every
dollar we may pay out as interest
on loans. All Of those items are
high because taxes are high, and
they will all be lower when taxes
are reduced Tomahawk Leader.

USED RIFLE TO END LIFE
Three Lakes Resident Shoots
SelfLast Sunday. Despond.
emit Over Specialist Verdict

Giving as his reason for taking
his life that a specialist had warn
ed him he would soon become in
sane, w. S. Sparrow of Three
Lakes deliberately shot himself in
the breast last Sunday morning.
The act was committed in the
garage at the Sparrow summer
home mile and a half from the
village of Three Lakes on Spirit
lake.
A note found on the body told
OF how a specialist had given an
opinion that due to high blood
pressure, hardening of the arteries
and other complications, insanity
was due within a short time. This
shows the cause of the suicide.
Mrs. Sparrow and the occupants
of the home heard a shot about
nine o'clock in the morning, which
sounded as being fired near the
garage. Investigation showed the
body of Mr.. Sparrow lying ON the
floor of the garage where it had
fallen after the bullet had ended
his life. Evidences were plain
that it was a planned suicide. One
empty shell in the .351 calibre rifle,
and another unexploded one on
the floor pointed to the fact that
the first shell, with cap dented,
had not exploded. Another shell
was injected into the chamber and
the trigger pulled.
w. S. Sparrow had for years
been a summer visitor to this sec
ton of the lake region, for years
stopping at Fournier's Camp north
east of Three Lakes. Several years
ago he and Mrs. Sparrow purchas-
ed a piece Of frontage on Spirit
lake near the Batavia Club and
erected a summer home. They
were now planning on building a
permanent residence at T hre e
Lakes and spending the entire
time here. For many years Mr.
Sparrow conducted a large jewelry
establishment in Chicago
His age was seventy-three. Dur
ing his residence in this section
he showed himself a truly out
doors man and loved the wild life
as true disciple of that cult.

INSTALL FIRE TRUCKS
Village Board at Three Lakes
Prepare for Fire Proven
ton in Shape of Chemical
and Hose.

Since fire destroyed the ware
houses of F. H. Dobbs & Sons at
Three Lakes last winter the village
board of that place saw the ne
cessity of fire protection of some
kind which would lessen the dan
ger of losses occasioned by fire.
Not having any water supply
other than from privately owned
wells, and the future of water
system in the village being some
what in the distance, the village
board ordered the purchase of a
chemical truck and ladder truck.
Both arrived last week and now
Three Lakes people are sleeping
much easier since the installation
of fire fighting apparatus.
This week, it is claimed, d volun-
teer fire company will be fully or
ganized. The fire fighting appar-
atus will be kept in the Badger
Garage where a truck will be IN
readiness at any and all times to
answer an alarm. A siren has al
so been installed and a fire phone
system just completed within the
village limits.

DEATH FRED DOLANSKI
Town of Lincoln Farmer
Passed at the Advanced
Age of Seventy-two Years.

After several years of poor
health, death came last Sunday ev-
ening to Fred Dolanski Sr. at his
farm home in the town of Lincoln.
Death was due to stroke on
Wednesday.
Fred Dolanski was resident of
the town of Lincoln for the past
sixteen years. Born in Bohemia
seventy-two years ago, he remain
ed in that country until forty
years ago when he and his wife
and family at that time, came to
the United States, settling in
Pennsylvania Later the family
moved to Texas then to Illinois re-
naming in the latter state for
twenty years. His marriage to
Miss Marie Planete in Bohemia
brought forth a family of eleven
children, eight Of whom, with the
wife survive: Mrs. Fred Johnson,
Mrs. Jos. T. Keefe, Mrs. George
Rogers, Mrs. Harry Herman and
Mrs. Peter Rumsey Of Chicago;
Anton, Fred Jr. and William at
home.
The residence of Mr.. Dolanski
and family in the town of Lincoln
for the past sixteen years has been
that of a community asset, and
the loss of the head of this family
means much to the neighbors in
the town where he has lived peac-
IDLY and in close acquaintance, ex-
tending assistance when possible
and rendered close accounting in
his daily works among his fellow
men.

TOM ROWINSKI KILLED
William Rowinski Shot and
Instantly Killed His Broth
er Tom.

By the shooting of Tom Rowinski
Monday ended the long family
fued of the Rowinski brothers.
Tom owns forty-acre farm in
Washington Township, and some
years back he gave William a life
lease on one acre of it, for con-
sideration of one dollar. Since
that time Tom has attempted sew
eral times to remove his brother
from the land, but was unsuccess-
full, and by the action it constant
ly kept turmoil between the two
brothers and as time grew on the
feeling of hatred became more in
tense, and Monday the trouble was
ended by William killing his bro
Their Tom.
While Tom Rowinski was work
ing on his farm with his team, it
seems that an alteration took
place between the brothers, and
William drew his gun which was
loaded with buckShOt, and killed
his brother Tom, two of the shots
entered just above the eyes and
several entered the breast. The
team became frightened and ran
away and the murdered mans
wife in attempting to stop them
was run down and badly bruised.
William is a man II and lived
alone land the murdered man was
about 60 years, and leaves a fam
ily. The funeral service takes
place at a o'clock this afternoon.
William Rowinski was arrested
on warrant charging first degree
murder. He waived his prelimin-
airy examination, and was bound
over to circuit court. The case
will probably come to trial in the
June term.

CONCRETE is IN SIGHT
Officials of Village Claim
Main Thoroughfares Will
be Concerted This Fall.

With the starting of sewer work
on Division street, followed by a
main system down Wall street,
the guarantee is given business
houses on main thoroughfares in
Eagle River that mud will be a
minus quality another season.
During the past week, ON ac-
count of the steady rains, all the
main streets have lost their indi-
viduality-they are now known as
Soup streets" and in that there
is no chance for argument to the
contrary, one has been compelled
to detour for at least block in
order to transact business just
"furninst" your place of business.
When the present highway and
streets were builded, the usages
they were put to were of a minor
quantity, but with the increased
traffic, and the summer conges-
ton, better highways and streets
must needs be built. Even when
the mud disappears from the main
streets, the resultant detriment to
business houses and travellers due
to the clouds Of sand and dust
blown about, is even worse. Con-
creting of the business blocks can
not be delayed another year.
