And why should I decline?

And capture all the beauX!
MY rivals only are enraged
Because the men propose.

2-Ccnt Passenger Rate DOwned

Lansing. April IA: This was rail
road field day in the house, and when
the smoke of battle cleared away at
q o clock in the evening it was found
that while the Pingreeites were bad
lv distigured. as had been expected,
they still had saved some Of their
bills from the wreck, the plan to re-
duce passenger rates to two cents
had been knocked out, but the bill
to prevent discrimination in freight
rates remains. The committee of
the whole also left life in the bill to
make railroads carry bicycles as bag
gage. and agreed to a bill to make
railroads place automatic alarm
bells AT dangerousrailroad crossings.
Nine railroad bills, among them
the repeal(of the special Michigan
Central charter, and the two-cent
fiat rate passenger bill, remain un-
touched, and the Pingreeites must
await their chances to get them be
fore the house. The reason for this
is that only three bills were disposed
of in the long afternoon fixed for the
final discussion of railroad bills. and
the railroad majority refused to
work at night.

PART OF KEWEENAW NOW.
Pingrce Signs the Bill Attaching
Isle ROyale to that County.

On Saturday last Governor Pin
gree affixed his signature to the bill
providing that Isle Royale shall be-
come part of Keweenaw county,
and as n result the treasurer of the
latter county will receive u nice sum
of English capital yearly in the
shape of county taxes, something
the mine owners OF Isle Royale found
it unnecessary to pay for u number
of years. Isle Royalc is the second
island in size in the possession OF
the United States. From what had
been written about this island by
by Pierre Boucher and published in
Paris in 1910, and from accounts
published in Paris in 1861 by the
Jesuit missionaries, who penetrated
into the upper peninsula as early as
1913, of the extensive deposits OF
copper in this region, and particul-
arly on Isle Royale, which records
had undoubtedly been studied by
him, no doubt decided Benjamin
Franklin to insist, as one Of the
boundary comm sSioncrs after the
Revolutionary war, upon including
Isle Royale within the limits o. the
territory ceded by Great Britain to
the United States; ;and the boundary
was placed midway between the
island and the main shore OF the
north sid. Of the lake. When the
early efforts at mining were made
in the copper region much attention
was directed to Isle Royale and
large expectations were conferred
there. The widest imaginations
with regard to the enormous wealth
stored in its mines, and the facility
with which it might be obtained,
were INDUCED in; and these wild
coniectureS were stimulated by the
fact that numerous veins bearing
copper, which was kept FURNISHED
by the action Of the waves, could be
seen in the lake along the edge oi
! the island. These formed the basis
for the theory that the masses found
/ scattered over the mainland had
been broken from these island veins.

eeuting Attorney W. X. Haviland

was well under way. The case was
fought hard on both sides, but after
being out less than an hour the
Jury returned with a verdict Of
acquittal.

a verdict of not guilty.

Greepleaf, charged with having
committed perjury,a nolle prosslqui
was entered by the prosecuting at

stand the useless and unnecessary
expense.

ment was given to the plaintitf

Consolidation Talk.

The Ontonagon Herald says there
is move on foot towards the con
solidation of several of the important
mines of that county, with an object
of having them worked as one, or un-
der one management. The trouble
there is that many of the mining com
panies possess too limited a territory
to warrant expensive equipment,and
the consolidation plan is to remedy
this difficulty so that capital will be
more inclined to be attracted. NC
names are given, but it is said that
an earnest effort towards resump
ton is being made, and prospect'
for a happy conclusion of the present
efforts are said to be favorable.
