Where Is the Grand Jury /:

Editor LASsE SENTINEL:
DEAR SIR-Kindly allow me little
space in your valuable paper. | noticed
in the Baraga County Herald OF Nov. "a.
/ 1894, the proceedings OF certain meet
! ing Of the township board Of the town
accounts and fixed things up evidently
very satisfactory to themselves, regard
less OF the feelings OF the taxpayers. |
have been wondering how In the world
! five big men could have held down their
seats for five consecutive days on the
board OF election, charging the same up
to the township at tho rate of S3 90 per
day each, besides an $500 supper at the
Chappell House extra also charged up to
the township. | also wonder how it
happened to have cost Slo.00 to stick up
notices Of election at precinct No. 9,
when in fact The man making the charge
did nc. go there at all-ths notices be-
ing taken there and put up by tote
teamster. These things may be all right
bu. at a distance to one OF the uniuitiat-
ed IL looks crooked.
Another tem--that of having a mar
shal and a gate keeper two days each, at
So. 90 per day. Wonder what business
either had on the board OF election on
the Tth day of November? | wonder
what sort OF an election they had on the
9th day Of last November anyhow? IL is
loads Of tickets, tally sheets, poIl-books.
etc. to run the thing. One man went
to L'Anse and brought over two loads Of
election matter, at $500 per load. but 1t
seems they did not have enough and an
other man went and brought over an
other $500 jag-S9.0O-for getting a
few papers from LAuse, when In fact a
beer peddler brought the tickets to Bara-
ga, and the county did, or will, pay
him 81. for IL.
Is 1t any wonder that the treasury 10
empty and that township orders are fiy-
ing to the forswinds OF Heaven without
a redeemer? Gentlemen, there Is fu-
ture! "Din 20 hear the slogan sound
ingg" We hear the distant thunder Of
the "Lexow," and up frsm the valley Of
the Saginaws comes a"note OF warming"
The time has come when grand juries
are In order. A word to the wise 10 suf
ficient. May the great tital wave Of re-
form now started on It's irresistible course
continue until such corruption Is swept
from our land.

The PRESS figures given last week,
upon dairy returns at Miller were
quite "a surprise to many people.
Probably not omen III lOsupposed
that Miller's butter shipments
amounted to 81 900 per month, but
such is now an established fact
Over $40, 900 at Miller from cattle,
butter and wool in 2kmonths, means
more to this community than many
think. 1t means there is to be less of
an attempt to spread all over the
neighborhOod to rush in a wheat crop;
it means that less acreage will be
put in as it should, and which will
stand weather better; it means regu-
lar industry nearly all the yearround,
instead of for two or three months.
And-permit us-it means that the
PRESS has been right for II years in
advising mixed farming and stock
raising.

GRAND OPERA norsE.

The desire to see the excellent per formances given 'by the Waite Comedy company each afternoon and evening increases at every performance. Last night "The Inside Track" was given, and the work done by every member of. the cast was highly creditable. E As the week passes each new performance adds to the laurels won by the plays and company. The repertoiret of the company is composed wholly Of plays never before produced at cheap prices and on which heavy royalty is paid. The company is a strong one and how MT. Waite can carry such a high grade company and play at popular prices is a mystery to the general public, but he does it. It demonstrates the fact that the public will liberally patronize q meritorious company. The specialties are all bright and new, and the music rendered by the orchestra was applaud ed to the echo. The matlnees given daily are attracting large numbers of ladies and children.
 This afternoon "A Noble Outcast" will be given and in the evening Young America"
 The doll matinee given last Tuesday proved such a great success and made so many little ones happy that MT. Bunnell has decided to give another one on Saturday afternoon. Every child
 accompanied by it's parent or guardian
 purchasing a reserved seat ticket will
 be given on entering the theater a cou- pon, which at the close of the perform ance must be presented to the little FL more sisters, who will hold a reception on the stage and hand the articles to the children. In addition to the articles given away at the last reception on Tuesday a large number of the cele- brated horseshoe puzzles will be pre- scented to the children at this matinee. At the Grand opera house on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week will appear Whallen and Martelfs suc- l cessful production, South Before the | War" novelty and one that has won fame and many dollars for it's origina- | tors. It is absolut,iy unique and the only show of it's kind in existence con- l posed of some fifty people, the majority | of whom are colored, a pickaninny band
 of seventeen little boys. They travel in their own palace car. There will be
