News About Town
Republican Speakers
Who Will Address
the People.
n. II. PsttengilI, Of Lansing.
VIII Ne Here Next Tuesday-lm-
prevements I'm Lighting che Opera
House, Metropolis. Deisgs.

In making out the schedule for speak
ers who will visit the Upper Peninsula
during the next week or two of the pres
emit political campaign, the State Central
committee evidently concluded that Cal.
umet was a safe republican town
and did not decide TO send many
speakers here. They are no doubt cor.
rect in their surmises, for the general be-
lief appears to be that il Ia only ques-
ton OF how much plurality the ticket
will get here. Among the speakers who
will be here are Hon. Frank Huuley. Of
Vermont, and Hon. Henry R. Pattsngill.
State superintendent. The latter 10
booked for Tuesday evening, the 18th
inst, and the former for Thursday. the
18th inst. They will both probably
speak under the auspices OF the Mckinley
and Hobart club. Mr.. Pattengill is
known to a few OF our people. having
previously spoken in the copper country
on educational lines. Other speakers OF
note will likely be assigned by the CON-
mittee for the latter part OF the month.
The people are much disappointed that
Pingree is not to speak at this place,
for. notwithstanding the statement made
a few months ago that there was no Pin
gree sentiment here, we venture to assert
he would have been able to raise as much
as Mckinley himself, as the
people have apparently placed Mckinley
and Pingree on the same pedestal, look
ing upon them both as the peoples can
didates.

BErUBI.ICAN NOMINEES.


There is no improvement in the political
outlook in our State. The Republicans
are still hopelessly divided and the indi.
cations are that they will continue to re-.
main so. The qualification of personal
ends and aims seem to be more important
in the estimation Of the representatives of
each wing Of the two parties than the sue.
cess of the candidates named for the diff.
erent Offices That the candidates of both
wings can be elected is impossible. One,
II not both of them will DO defeated. 1t
Is true that the Democratic party is great
ly denoralized, indeed they are hopelessly
divided on the candidate for Governor as
well as upon the money question. The
Single Takers have also become factors of
some importance In this camraign. II
by any means these dissatisfied Democrats
can all be united in favor of ono of the
Republican candidates for Governor, it is
barely possible that such candidate mi ght
be elected. The friends Of John G, liig
gins are sanguine that these discordunt
voters may support him, while Hoffecker' s
friends say he will be favored by them.
Time alone can solve the question, but if
It at any time should appear that one Of
them may defeat Mr.. Ebe Tunncll the
Democratic candidate that is the one who
should be voted for.
