the meeting, though IL would seem ad-
visable that all members, or at least
all officers, should be taxpayers.

The Iron Trade Reviews Resume Of the Week
IN Iron Circles.
Two weeks OF February have brought
somewhat more encouragement to the
iron trade than wns TO be found in the
course Of january business; yet all csti-
mates are nearly comparative. There
arc limitations OF what some Of the
more important railroad lines will do in
the rail and car markets, but nothing
that has materinlizcd up To this time in
these directions has nude any impress
sion. Bridges, elevated work, office
structures and shipbuilding have fur
nished the bulk oi the tonnage that has
gone into the mills since the year opened.
Add TO these the acquisitions Tor agri-
cultural machinery for cast pipe for
wire and wire nails, and the main ave-
nues into which mill products have gone
have been named.

lain, however, in conjunction with Sona-
tor Sheldon and other upper peninsula
members, hopes to be able to extract
blood from turnip by employing "a bit
OF very clever strategem. A large dele
cation OF members from the northern
portion Of the lower peninsula are push
inc n scheme for the establishment OF n
similar institution at Reed City. To
this, of course. there Is n very powerful
objection, but might be carried 10y the
aid Of the upper peninsula delegation.
This accomplished, spirit OF recipro-
city might bring TO the assistance OF the
statesmen Of the far north the much de-
sired balance OF power and give TO the
upper peninsula that which she is surely
entitled to in thc way OF additional edu-
cational facilities. Mr.. chamberlain

titions TO all parts OF the peninsula aud

shortly.

mand shall be made therefor by proper
ly accredited representatives, armed
with letters testamentary or admistra-

eys are not called for within such time,
the same shall be turned into the cont.
gent fund OF the county and be used Tor
general county purposes. The disposi'
tion Of the money was provided for by
an amendment by MIR. Cook, and on nc
count Of the amendment being the most
important feature Of the bill, the bill
was again ordered printed as amended
and referred again 60 the committee oI
