same chirography.
AN UNJUST DECENTRALIZATION.
The fling at the character Of Bow
den's friends Is one of the clauses at
which some Of the Republicans here
are SO much incensed. They have d
right to be. If his friends oil over the
district can be Judged by those in SUI
folk, it would seem that some Of the
best element In the party is OH his side.
And they don't take kindly to being
termed 'disreputable." 1t appears that
an attempt Is being made to boost" up
Wise at the expense Of Bowdcn's char
acter and the reputation Of his friends.
A DISTRESSING PRAYER
Here is copy Of the petition which
fell into the hands OF somebody for
whom 1t was not intended: 1t was ad-
dressed to Hon. John S. Wise, New
York City"
Dear Strive appeal to you as one
OF our former companions in Virginia
TO represent our cause here, and to go
before the President OF the United
states and fully explain to him the
great trouble that George T. Bowden is
doing to the cause Of Republicanism in
hands Of the Democrats, and is now
helping them to disorganiZe and ruin
our party. He is without followers save
handful Of disreputablc and disaffect-
ed persons.
CUTTER AND HOPELESS RUIN"
ITO call him to the front at this time
means our utter and hopeless ruin. He
claims to be an original Mckinley man.
put the claim Is false. He only fell into
line after he saw how our voters stood,
lie neither represents us, our cause or
our party in this district. 1t will be a
great mistake to call him to the front
at this time. We hope our honorable
President will fully post himself before
he acts in this matter"
And further these petitioners sayeth
not.

POINTS FOR ADVERTISERS.

Saying the right thing at the
right time" implies that adyertis-
ing, if properly done, is immensely
profitable.
The only thing a man wants af-
ter he gets all the money he needs,
is more. Judicious advertising gets
it.
1t is not necessary for one to be
an acrobat in order to tumble to the
fact that advertising is a good
thing.
Cleanliness may be next to godli-
ness; but the biggest advertiser
sells most soap,
AS the rudder is to the ship, so
is printers ink and iudlcious adver-
tising to the success of any business
that makes a bid for public patron
age,
zone half of a mans energy is
wasted, Only the down strokes
count in chopping wood" Adyer-
tising improperly done is wasted.
Good ads are down strokes for sue
sessful business.
''The business in which you know
you could make money, is always
monopolized by Others" The golden
opportunity is stll open for those
who reach over others by more and
better advertising.
''Econmy is a good thing, but 1t
is a poor policy to set hen ON one
egg, to save eggs" Wise advertise
ers do not depend on a single ad
and a single insertion to bring them
fortune, Keeping everlastingly
at it brings success,

Snow feel last night and this morning
and the ground was covered with several
inches in short time. Sleighs were
brought out and the wagons discarded
in many cases. The new Red Jacket vii
lage sleigh to be used on the streets was
brought out and put into commission
this morning. 1t is large sleigh, built
on the same pattern AZ the heavy snow
sleigh used last winter on the streets and
will be used to cart the debris, ashes and
the like from the streets. A neat arraDg-
ment on the sides makes it possible to
open both sides at once and dump the
load with little or no difficulty. The new
sleigh was built by Dominick Kaiser and
he did good job.

The Ice BUSINESS.

contractor Leo Kaltenback is rushing
the work on John Messner's new ice
house on Pine street and the building is
fast nearing completion. The sides are
all up and the root will be completed to-
day, 80 that tie rest OF the work can be
attended to during the winter.
Mr.. Messner has not fully decided
where he will cut his ice for his trade this
winter. Beaver pond where he generally
obtained it is nearly dry as it was
drained out during the summer. How
ever Mr., Messner thinks there ia water
enough left TO oil his ice houses, but only
that amount, and il he uses it the meat
markets will all have to to get their ice
from the Calumet pond or some other
available place. He says the water in
the Calumet pond is much clearer now
than it formerly was, as this summer
when the water from Beaver pond
was turned into it the flood gates we're
opened for time and in this way good
deal of the dirty water was allowed to
escape, leaving the remainder good and
clear. He says the bottom of the pond
can now be seen from almost any point.
The hot water from the mine which
ormerly ran into the pond at the east
cad has been turned aside and this does
not get into the dam although the mine
water still comes in at the other end
Mr.. Messner thinks that the ice at the
east end will be good clear ice and in
every way fine enough for the purposes
ff0- which it is to be used.
The copper country evening news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 18??-1907, 1897-11-26

other numbers on the program were
equally well appreciated and given
liberal applause.
The vocal solos by Miss Clara Ostran-
der, Charles b. Gale, Miss Ludlow, Miss
Retallic and Mr.. II. b. Vincent were all
we'll received. Recitations were given
by Messrs. Thomas Wills and L James
in fine style and the Misses James rem
dered a duet, as did also the Misses Dan
ielson.
The instrumental numbers included a
piano duet by Miss Alice Nelson and Mrs.
VT. Engstrom a cornet and baritone
duet by Messrs. GLEASON and Draper and
cornet duet by Messrs. Glasson and
Bergman.

The Protestant churches OF the city OBJ
served Thanksgiving Day by holding
special union services at the Calumet

vices were very largely attended and the
majority of the churches OF the city were
represented. The pastors OF the various
churches occupied seats on the platform.
Rev. DR.. Hunter delivered the sermon,
which was one appropriate to the occa-
sion and is very highly spoken OF.

II anything the party OF Wednesday

The crowd came from all parts OF the

of the people from Hancock and Hough.

The decorations we're decidedly elabor-
heIs OF the committee who worked so
faithfully in this regard and the idea
which was carried out in the arrange
ment OF the eYergreens and flags we're
frequently complimented on the beauti-
ful appearance OF the old drill hall. 1t
was no small job to decorate the armory
and it took considerable hard work. The
nall was arranged with evergreens thickly
plated on the walls in regular lines,
being topped off with cotton batting
which relieved the monotony which is
very noticeable when the evergreens alone
are used. Pretty white chenille curtains
were hung from the windows and "Old
Glory" was also conspicuous in the dec
-orations.
The full program of twenty-four num-
oers with six extras was danced, and it
was O'Clock the next morning when the
party came to an end. The Fifth In

band also came in for numerous words OF |
communication. Several new and catchy |

known reputation in the culinary line
Ras an assurance in advance that it
would be all that could be desired, simply

was delicious. George Bergman acted
as Drompter in a satisfactory manner,
while Colonel Cox also assisted IN calling
some OF the square dances.
