THERE is some talk of the removal of
a Marine Engine plant from Michigan
to this place. The proprietors first had
West Superior in view, but they were IL
duced to investigate the advantages this
termination. Such a plant in this city
would greatly assist the ship building
business and would likewise materially
aid the Marine Boiler Works. Nothing
but high priced labor is employed and
thus a very desirable addition would be
made to the population of the city.

THE Pilot this week is oditorless and
must depend for copy on the contribu-
ton box The presiding spirit of its sane
tum is off on vacation, much to the
satisfaction of his friends, who have no.
ticed that his labors incident to the
Fourth of July celebration were wearing
upon him; were making him in the Ian
guage Of Freeman VS.. Donnelly, very,ecor-
omical of the truth. 1t is hoped he will
return with his equilibrium fully restored.
IT may seem proper 10 remind thos
who so ungentlemanly yelled Aaron Tor
ri. on out OF the box during the game Of
July ., that even high priced professionals
give men base son balls. 4 cursory perusal
of one issue of daily paper of last week
showed that Davies had given four men
bases on balls in one game, Kennedy
four. Duke five. These men were not
yelled out of the box, and certainly an
amateur, playing for his own amusement
and the entertainment of his townsmer,
ought to be entitled to as much considera-
ton as a professional playing for revenue
only, Give Aaron better show next
time.
