NO BONDED INDEBTEDNESS

Iron county is free of debt. the
last payments on a bonded indebted
ness having been cleared off during
the year.
The fact that this county is "in the
clear" so far as bonded indebtedness
is concerned speaks well for the
administration of its public affairs.
There are but few counties in Wis
consin so situated A good many of
the counties in the state are heavily
bonded, the Indebtedness being in
Cured IN most cases to carry on the
strenuous highway building pro-
gram of the present day.
In contrast with other counties.
Iron county has not gone wild" over
the highway problem, but has pro-
ceeded under the plan of pay as you
60" doing little each year with the
money available. The coming gen
GRAFTON is therefore not faced with
the task of paying off Indebtedness
incurred for building roads that have
long since worn out The county
has no hard-surfaced highways, it is
true, like they have in southern coun-
ties, but We believe our dirt and
gravel roads are as good as the
average.
The advantages of having no
bonded indebtedness was demonstrat-
ed this week when the county finance
committee did not have to consider
appropriations for this item in MAX
ing up the budget for next year. 1t
simply means that just that much
less money win have to be raised in
taxing general property. And the
more appropriations can be slashed
and economy effected in local
government activities, the better will
it be for the already burdened
taxpayer

Plans to Colonize
Odanah Reservation
Minneapolis Concern Buys Large
Acreage and Will Finance Families
Who Wish to Farm.

FIRST step in plans to colonize the
Odanah Indian reservation with
farmers was taken recently, accord
ing to the Ashland Press, when the
Mortgage Redemption company of
Minneapolis, two million dollar
concern, purchased 1920 acres of
land on the reservation at a con
sideration of $4,000 from Fred
Erickson, former Ashland wholesale
liquor dealer and banker, who now
hives at San Diego, California.
The articles Of incorporation Of
the big concern were recorded in the
office of Register of Deeds Knowles
along with the deed of land. so that
the concern can do business in this
state.
The purchase of the 1920 acres
from Erickson is only the first stem if
was indicated by an officer of the
concern who filed the papers. and
who said that the plans were to pur-
chase much more land and then to
arrange to send large numbers of
families to these lands and finance
them until their farms were on a
paying basis.
This will make the city of Ashland
the center of larger farming com
munity and will rapidly help to set
tie up the reservation, abandoned to
great extent since the cutting of
timber has been finished.
The concern which is undertaking
this project is interested in some of
the biggest real estate projects in the
country and has proved very success
full.

Potatoes Take On Life.

Last March, before any planting
was done in Wisconsin, the United
States Department of Agriculture
advised the people Of Wisconsin to
plant a little more acreage Of pota-
toes, for their survey had indicated
that there would be a shortage Of
acres planted in other states. Evil
IDENTIFY our people did not heed the
advice for now at harvest time we
find Wisconsin short on the number
Of acres Of land producing potatoes.
There is in fact a shortage gen
orally, not that there will be a derth
Of potatoes, and not that everybody
will not have potatoes to eat, but
the market could have stood fifth
more and if that fifth had been pro
duced in Wisconsin, it would have
paid well

Fire of unknown origin wreaked
havoc at the home of Bernardo Re-
Chino on Fifth avenue south last
Saturday morning. The second story
of the house was badly Quilted by the
flames The fire originating in that
part of the house leads to the theory
that it may have been caused by de-
fective wiring. The household goods
from the first floor were carried out
but considerable damage was done by
water. There was no insurance on
the house of furniture The Righino
family are temporarily located in the
Chiono house on Sixth avenue.

Protection for Ameri-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-Made
uneasy by recurring disturbances in
Damascus anad other Syrian cities,
the State Department today in
structed Ambassador Herrick to call
the French Government attention
to it's responsibilities toward foreign
ers living in the region.
French troops and Druse tribes
men there have been at grips for
some weeks eliminating in the bonn
bardment of Damascus by the
French with resultant heavy loss Of
life, estimated at between 1000 and
5000.
Herrick was told to ask protec-
ton for American lives and property.
Dispatches yesterday stated the
French warned their own citizens
before the bombardment but left
other foreigners ignorant of the
pending action.
Official indications were given at
other departments of the Govern
ment that PREPARATIONS for such dam
age as may have been inflicted on
American property might be asked
of France.
The decision to approach the
French Government followed re-
ceipt by the State Department of of.
fetal advices from j. II. Kelley,
American consul at Damascus, re-
lating in detail the bombardment of
the city, the parading of dead
Moslem tribesmen strapped on backs
Of camels through the streets at the
instance of the French command,
and other features OF the attack on
the city.
The United States destroyers
Coghlan and Lanson have arrived

are maintained in readiness to pro-
coed to the Syrian coast to assist
Americans of whom there is re-
ported about 1000 in the region.
