There are a larger number of campers
reported at Chippewa Lake this year than
in any previous season. About forty tents
are in use, and people are there from
Cleveland, Mansfield, Wooster, MassillOn

A large mass meeting of Populists is to
be hold at Chippewa Lake in the near
future. The great drawing card for the
occasion will be General COxey, who is to
make an address; and no doubt his pres
ence will be quite an attraction and draw
a large number to view the commOnweal
wonder.

Last week there was quite an excite
ment in Youngstown, O., with the mem
bers of the Catholic church and an order
known as the American Protective assO-
citation. The association is formed for
the express purpose Of prohibiting men,
bers of the Catholic church from being
elected to office. We are inclined to
think that such an association is hardly
in keeping with the spirit of our form OF
government. If a person is citizen OF
this country he is subject to perform mil
itary duty and all other duties that may
be assigned to him; therefore, the forma-
ton Of any organization to prevent cit
izen from holding Office just because he
belongs to some particular church seems
unfair, impractical and unlawful. The
ballot box should remain undisturbed
and electors should have the privilege OF
voting free from restraint. We hope the
members of the A. P. A. will take no
hasty action, but will carefully consider
all sides Of this question.

'R. G. Peters, of Manistee, was in
town yesterday on business. The affairs
of the R. G. Peters Salt & Lumber COM
pany have practically been settled up, all
claims having been paid in full with a
single exception and that is disputed.
Mr.. Peters individual affairs are rapidly
being restored to order, but the prevail
ing low prices this year is delaying the
process somewhat. Liabilities to the
amount of 100000 or 100000 are still
outstanding, but the visible assets are
considerably in excess of the debt. Mr..
Peters will in time pay all claims in full
and will have enough left to entitle him
to place among the rich men of the

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, July Co.
Relatives of Walter Wellman, Arctic
explorer, residing in this city, are not
alarmed over the sensational newspaper
reports that the expedition is lost. A.
w. Wellman, brother of the Arctic
explorer, has been the guest of his
cousin, H. E. Bassett, of this city, for
the past week and left Tuesday night
for his home in York, Neb. He says
that undoubtedly he has the last letter
that has been received from the ex-
plorer and does not credit the sens
ational rumors afoat that the crew is
lost.
The letter in question states that the
expedition left Tromsoe, Norway, on
May "a, and would take what seemed
to be the best highway for the North
pole. They next touched at Danes
island, off the northwest coast of Spitz-
bergen. 1t was here that they estab-
lished base of supplies, and storing
the greater portion of them to fall
back on in case of an emergency, they
left Prof, oyen with one dog there to

The course pursued by the president

tie out Of place, yet it may be the means
Of dispatching matters, so that an ad-

president is to send in message on the
condition of the country at the beginning
Of each session, and If anything special
transpires during the session he may
communicate the same to congress, but
not send special letter to any particu-

There is a very unsettled state of af-
fairs at Hawaii Islands at the present
time. President Cleveland made an at
tempt to undo what his predecessor had
sanctioned, but owing to the strong Op-
position he met with from the press and
the people his line of policy has not been
carried into effect. Other nations cannot
but view the matter as very mbusiness-
like proceedings, and if trouble of a seri-
Ous nature would arise matters might be

large plate glass windows in the resi-

smashed with stones thrown by Simon
Reskins, a Russian and an anarchist, at
TAO o'clock yesterday morning. Res
kins made no resistance when seized by
Mr.. Pullman's servants. He was turned
over to the police and searched, but
nothing more dangerous than stones
were found on him. When questioned
he delivered himself Of curses against
the government and George M. Pull
man. He said Pullman had thrown him

Bishop Horstman, of Cleveland, declin-
ed for few days to permit the school en-
meratOrs to have the names of the chill
dren entrusted to the care of the matrOns
in their benevolent institutions. He
claimed that it was nothing but plan
Of robbery for the state to have the names
as each childEenumerated draws $1.60
from the state school fund, and of course
the CathOlicsshaye to help pay it. The
bishop declared that he would appeal to
the press to have the wrong righted. The
plan upon which our public schools are
conducted does not seem to receive the
approval of thatFparticular branch of the
Christian church, and it attempts to OBJ
struct the workings of said system when
ever there isFan opportunity.

The employees Of the street car lines in
Youngstown, O., left the service Of the
company, after demanding an increase
in wages and adopted the old plan Of not
working themselves nor permitting 9th
ers to fill their places. The company not
only declined to arbitrate, but filled the
vacancies with new men. This is step
in the right direction 1t will prove a
blessing to the employees in the future
and establish precedent that companies
and individuals are competent to look
after their own affairs, without being in
terfered with by outside parties.

1t required just thirty days to extin-
guish the greatness Of E. V. Debbs, pres
ident of the railway union. The grea4
strike declared itself off, so it is now a
thing of the past. The strike at Home
stead, Pa, and the great Pullman strike
may well be ranked together for genuine
Stiffness. There was just as much sense
displayed in the one as in the other; and
no wisdom displayed in either. This
will probably be the last general strike
that will occur in some time, as the peO-
pie are beginning to see what unions
will do.

first applied to the upfaithful. The next
great strike took place in MedfOrd, Mass,
in 1917. Since that time they have been
more frequent and in many instances
blood has been shed. The total number
Of strikes in the United States is about
