TOMAHAWK WOODENWARE COMPANY. This plant is another one of Tomahawk's substantial and prosperous industries. It was organized in January, 1905, with the following officers: President, W. T. Bradley; Secretary, O. M. Smith, with A. E. Sutliff Vice President. The plant has a capacity of about 2,000 pails per day and employs from 30 to 40 men. The material used is basswood, pine, birch and other local woods, mostly in the form of bolts from 4 to 8 feet long. The product has a steady sale and is in good demand by candy makers, who ship most of their output in wooden pails such as are manufactured by this company. Much of this material is brought to the factory during the winter months by farmers living near the city and is of that class considered as worthless until very recently. This material now adds another item to the original timber wealth of the northland, and as a source of revenue is taken into consideration by prospective settlers and land buyers, it making possible the clearing of land at a profit instead of loss. The soil is splendidly adapted for stock raising and dairying, while hay, oats, and all the staple vegetables are grown in abundance. Thousands of cords of bolts are purchased each year from lands which have been stripped of the sawmill timber, thus paying out money which makes directly for the actual development of the farms so rapidly becoming a factor in the growing wealth of this section of the state.

A MAN WHO DOES THINGS. R. C. Thielman is one of the most loyal and patriotic citizens of Tomahawk. In these qualities he is second to none. On no occasion is this spirit allowed to slumber, for at the least opportunity it makes itself manifest. Mr. Thielman came to Tomahawk in 1897 and has been in the meat business for twenty years. In 1890 he engaged in the lumbering business, and is the owner of a large tract of standing timber. He is logging for the Bradley Company, and will cut eight million feet for this company the coming year. He is now running three logging camps, employing over two hundred men, and is badly in need of and anxious to employ another hundred. The timber is principally hemlock and hardwood, and is brought in principally by the railroad. There is still within fifteen or twenty miles of Tomahawk a solid township of timber. It is estimated that for twenty years the logging and lumbering industry will be prominent in and around Tomahawk. The cut-over land is selling at from five to ten dollars an acre, and no better soil for dairy purposes can be found in the state. Mr. Thielman owns several hundred acres inside the city limits and has platted two additions to the city. He has been mayor of Tomahawk for five terms, and the city has prospered under his leadership. In each of his official positions he has given earnest and intelligent service, and upon his official record there is not a blot. He is of that class of citizens who build up cities and then make them known on the map, and his fellow citizens realize his value as a permanent, prominent, progressive citizen. If the reader wants a few days of recreation that recreates he can find some of the best fishing in the state in close connection with Mr. Thielman's camp, and a few meals at one of his several logging camps will make one.

 TOMAHAWK IRON WORKS. This substantial industry was established in 1890 by the late W. H. Bradley and in June, l906, was purchased by William Drever and J. H. Knaggs, since which time it has been greatly enlarged and much modern machinery installed. This Company manufactures new machinery of different kinds, but specialize in various lines, such as locomotive, car and mill repairs, steam fitting, structural steel, foundry and boiler shop work. A number of sawmill refuse burners and many towering smoke stacks, in this northern section, were erected by this Company, who employ about 30 mechanics the year round. William Drever, President and Treasurer of the Company, came to Tomahawk eighteen years ago and has been in the machine shop business for more than 30 years. He is a master mechanic from choice, necessity and force of habit. His services have won an excellent reputation for the Company in the saw and paper mill industry in this section and his list of acquaintances covers a wide territory. J. H.. Knaggs, Vice President, came to Tomahawk eight years ago. He is a practical boiler maker of 30 years experience and on account of his ability has established an enviable reputation among the many competitors of the Company. He is thoroughly familiar with every department of the boiler business and has probably superintended the erection of more smoke stacks, refuse burners and steel structural work, than any other man plying his trade in this northern section. This Company have worked up an excellent trade which extends to the northern border of the state as well as for 60 or 70 miles west along the Soo Line and some distance south among their competitors. They not only make a specialty of repairing and overhauling locomotives but buy and sell the same. Tomahawk is indeed fortunate in having an institution of so permanent and substantial standing. This plant is not located here for a day or a year for these men believe in Tomahawk and its future; they are here to stay and to add to their already increasing business as necessity demands.

 THE LATE WM. H. BRADLEY OF TOMAHAWK. Mr. Bradley's life was a busy one. He founded Tomahawk and put into the city, not only his wealth but the best years of his business manhood, and the city will ever stand as a living monument to its founder and benefactor.

 TOMAHAWK BOX COMPANY. The Tomahawk Box Company commenced business in July, 1906, with W. G. Foss President and General Manager, and G. A. Foss Secretary and Treasurer. This Company employs forty-five men the year round, and cut up six million feet of lumber, consisting of hardwood, pine and hemlock per year. Their machinery is strictly up-to-date and first class in every respect. There is nothing done by hand that can possibly be done by machinery; especially is this true of the nailing of the boxes, as they use one of the largest size nailing machines with twenty-four hammers, driving more than one hundred nails a minute. They use a printing machine twenty-six inches wide, printing two colors on one hundred pieces a minute. Mr. W. G. Foss has been an active lumberman for more than thirty years, and for fifteen years a citizen of Tomahawk. The product of this manufacturing plant is shipped east as far as New Jersey, and as far south as Missouri. It is one of the best and most useful manufacturing plants of Tomahawk, and is doing much to give employment to many citizens. Its proprietors are progressive, energetic men who believe in Tomahawk and its future.

 TOMAHAWK. In the northern part of Lincoln County, at the confluence of four rivers, the Wisconsin, the Tomahawk, the Somo and the Spirit, may be found the thrifty little city of Tomahawk. Few towns of equal size have better railroad facilities. Its main artery is the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, then follows the Marinette, Tomahawk & Western, which connects with the Soo line, the Chicago & Northwestern and the Wisconsin Central. By reason of its magnificent and almost unlimited water power, several large manufacturing institutions have been erected, including two excellent paper mills. Among other advantages enjoyed are electric lights, water works and sewer system, owned by the municipality, wide streets, good schools and churches, two banks, two good newspapers, several good hotels-one of which, the Mitchell, cost ,000; fine driveways, excellent roads and a splendid surrounding country. On the north and west the Wisconsin River winds gracefully around the city. On the south and east the immediate country is somewhat broken. Prospect Hill, covered with pines and extending cape-like into Tomahawk Lake, is an extremely picturesque point in the surroundings. The lake and river is dotted with wooded islands, lending a charm to the landscape. The social life of the town is excellent, and of the best and most wholesome American type The commercial and manufacturing interests of the city have been built up chiefly on the lumber trade. But of late years the saw mills have been supplemented to some extent by the wood working establishments that employ a large force of men, and is one of the factors in the development of this section of the country. As the lands in all directions are being converted into farms, the new settler finds a ready income from the small timber remaining on the land that he can convert easily and quickly into ready cash. This is true to a great extent of all the unoccupied timber lands of the Valley. Much of this new land which formerly contained an excellent forest of basswood, hemlock and birch, can be bought at from five to ten dollars per acre, and there is no better soil in the state. And to these things we might add the fact, that within the near limits of the city is a very large horsepower of undeveloped water power, that within a radius of a few miles are some eight rivers and twenty lakes that will all do much in the years to come to add wealth to the city. There are also untouched hardwood forests of millions of feet almost within sight of the city. Tomahawk, with its excellent transportation facilities and its adjacent wealth of inexhaustible material, appeals to the homeseeker. Probably the most alluring promises comes from the unsubdued acres of rich dairy country that abound in every direction. The character of the men whom these lands have already attracted give assurance to the stranger that this will be the center of not only a manufacturing interest, but will develop into an excellent dairy and stock country in the near future.

LUMBERMAN, MERCHANT AND FARMER. John Oelhafen, a prominent and influential citizen of Tomahawk, Lincoln County, is a native of Bavaria, Germany, born January 22, 1836, a son of Andrew Oelhafen. John Oelhafen, the subject proper of this sketch came to America with his parents when eight years of age, and his childhood days were spent on the farm, his primary education being received in the village schools. He remained on the farm, assisting his father until he reached his majority. Although at the age of seventeen he commenced working in the pineries, giving his earnings to his father to help in the support of the family. In September, 1861, he was united in marriage with Anna S. Miller, who came to America alone at the age of seventeen. To this union were born six children, viz.: Anna E., Andrew, J. W., Mary E., Wm. and Anna L. After their marriage, Mr. Oelhafen and his wife removed to a farm in Washington County, where they remained for about two years. Mr. Oelhafen then sold his interest in the farm and removed to Milwaukee, where he opened a general store, remaining there some ten years. In 1872 he moved to Wausau, at which place he opened a general store, and also engaged in the lumbering business, both in Wausau and Milbank, S. Dakota, where he held large interests in farm lands and city property. In July, 1887, he erected the first building in Tomahawk, Lincoln County, before the days of railroads in that section of the country. At Tomahawk he again opened a department store and also continued in the lumber business, which he still carries on, being assisted by his three sons. Andrew, having charge of the lumber business; J. W. in charge of the mercantile business, and Wm. having charge of the cedar yards. Mr. Oelhafen has invested heavily but profitably in pine and farm lands all through the northern part of the state. He owns a very handsome residence in Tomahawk, and has always been an enterprising and influential citizen. Of the many lumber companies that have done their full part in cutting away the great forests of the North, John Oelhafen has done his. Mr. Oelhafen has been in the lumber business for the past thirty years, and is now employing over two hundred men, with standing timber in the forest sufficient to run for more than ten years longer. His timber consists of hardwood, pine and hemlock. Oelhafen mill is now cutting fifteen million per year. Logs are brought in by rail and water. The mill is kept busy day and night in winter and day times during the summer. Mr. Oelhafen is not only a merchant and lumberman of many years experience, but is also the owner of the largest farm in Lincoln County, consisting of 800 acres, all fenced and 260 acres under the plow, and thoroughly stumped and stocked with blooded cattle. He is also a prominent stockholder and director of the Bradley Bank in the city of Tomahawk, and is one of the early pioneers who helped to break the wilderness in the Wisconsin Valley. He is doing his part to make Tomahawk the hustling, progressive little city that she is.

 TOMAHAWK PULP AND PAPER COMPANY. This manufacturing plant began making paper in 1889. Their first mill had a capacity of ten tons per day; their second mill was built in 1905 on the opposite bank of the Wisconsin River from the first plant. This mill has a capacity of twenty-five tons per day. The two mills use 2,000 horsepower and employ one hundred twenty-five men the year round. A. M. Pride, proprietor and general manager of these two mills, came from Grand Rapids, Wisconsin, where he was engaged in the manufacture of pulp. He is not only a successful business man and manufacturer, but he is a successful citizen in everything that good citizenship implies.

 BRADLEY BANK, TOMAHAWK. Tomahawk is particularly fortunate in the matter of its banking facilities; and to these institutions must be given a large measure of credit for the influence they exert in extending the city's commercial and municipal prestige. They add a substantial dignity to the business community, independent of their value as commercial agents. This substantiality is one which is unconsciously infused into every form of local business life. To the Tomahawk people John W. Froehlich seems as much an essential part of their city as the trees and streets, as nearly his whole life has been spent there, and since attaining his years of manhood he has been conspicuously and constantly identified with the Bradley Company's interest. He was manager of the Mitchell Hotel for eleven years, and for six years has been cashier of the Bradley Bank. This bank has been a success from the start. It has done much to assist in the development of the resources of Tomahawk and Lincoln county. It has a paid capital of ,000 and a surplus of ,400. The officers of this bank are Edward Bradley, President; R. B. Tweedy, Vice-President, and John Froehlich, Cashier. These men are all well and favorably known in financial circles, and their names stand for business principles and honest and correct dealing. The bank is strong because the men back of it are strong. It has prospered because its management has been careful and prudent. Its success is well merited and richly deserved.

TOMAHAWK LUMBER COMPANY. The Tomahawk Lumber Company was established in 1904. It saws twenty-five million feet of pine, hemlock and hardwood each year, which is brought to the mill by rail and water. They employ 145 men, and run day and night the year round. They operate a planing mill in connection with the saw mill, and nearly their entire product is sold and shipped as dressed lumber. This company sells their product only by wholesale. Their market covers a wide range, mostly in the Mississippi Valley, yet many carloads of their product finds market in San Francisco, also New York. Their saw mill is modern in every respect. This mill was built in 1904 and has been in constant service since that time. The officers of the company are R. B. Tweedy, President; Spencer Illsley, Vice-President, with C. C. Uber, Secretary, Treasurer and Manager. This manufacturing plant is one of Tomahawk's most substantial institutions. It is an organization that employs a large amount of labor at good wages, and the members of the company are among the most progressive and substantial business men of Lincoln County.

A PROMINENT NORTH WOODS CHARACTER. One of the best known and most dignified old Indians on the Wisconsin River was Indian Pete, who died about two years ago, aged ninety-four. He has traveled every Indian trail along the Wisconsin River, and for the past fifty years has been a familiar character in the towns and lumber camps all through the upper valley. He seemed to command the universal respect of the Whites, and for many years was a privileged character on the trains and at the Mitchell hotel at Tomahawk. Pete was always proud of being a Chippewa, and seemed confident that his tribe were the only real good Indians in the pine woods.
