Both Nominations Will Stand.

Judge Grant, who presides over
the supreme court at Lansing, spent
few hours in Ishpeming Saturday,
says the Mining Journal, while on
his way to points down the line of
the Chicago & Northwestern rail
way.
Asked as to what the outcome of
the contest between Carl Sheldon
and Sam Stephenson for place on
the Republican ticket for congress
man in this district would be, the
judge said that both names would
have to go, leaving the final decision
to a vote of the people.
1t will not be necessary for the
supreme court take the contest be-
tween Sheldon and Stephenson under
consideration, as decision in a
similar case was rendered some time
ago, when there were three candi-
dates nominated for an Office at o
convention held in Detroit. At
t,at time all the names were put on
the ticket and the one who received
the greatest number of votes got
the place.
In view OF this the supporters of
both candidates should be satisfied,
as the result Of the election on the
9Th of November will settle beyond
all doubt which man the people Of
the district want as their represent
ative in congress. Sans ''butter
campaign" will now have to be re-
newed

PATRICK CULLINEY CHOSEN
Received His Appointment As
County Game and Fish
Warden Wednesday.

Patrick Culliney, of this city, is
now the game and fish warden of
Baraga county, having received his
appointment Wednesday from Hon.
Chase S. Osborn, state warden, and
at once entered upon the duties OF
his Office.
Since the office was made vacant
a few weeks ago by the death OF
N. S. Pennock, there have been any
number of applications, and the
contest has been a decidedly lively
one, consequently Mr.. Culliney is
to be congratulated upon his good
fortune as being the lucky man to
be chosen. In him THE SENTINEL
predicts that State Warden Osborn
will find man well qualified for the
Office, and one who will do his duty
promptly, faithfully and without
fear or favor.
Mr.. Culliney has resided in
L'Anse for nearly thirty years, is
familiar with every foot of Baraga
county, and violators of the game
and fish laws will find him camped
mighty close onto their heels at all
times. The appointment of Mr..
Culliney is highly satisfactory.

NEW CROP RECORD.
Michigan Wheat Yield Biggest
Ever Reported.

The August crop report for Michi-
gan says that correspondents lave
secured from threshers the results of
1917 jobs aggregating 115, 827 acres
of wheat threshed in the state, the
yield from which was 2,274,27l bush
els, an average Of 1854 bushels per
acre. In the southern counties 92,-
833 acres threshed averaged 1891
bushels per acre. In the central
counties the averageis 1887 bushels
and in the northern counties, 1859
bushels.
The area in wheat in the state last
year as compiled from the returns of
supervisors was 1,725, ,448 acres.
This is the probable acreage that
was harvested this year. Comput.
ing by cites for the southern and
central sections, and for the north
ern section entire, gives probable
yield in the state of 81, l62, ,563 bush
els. This is more than ever report
ed in the farm statistics. The final
estimate will be made in October.
The amount of wheat actually mar
keted in August this year, 954,Sl6
bushels, is l67, 7,243 bushels more
than marketed in August last year.
Threshers returns indicate that
oats will yield in the state 32 bush
els, and barley "a bushels per acre.
The figures for oats are seven bush
els, and for barley five bushels
above the estimates of one year ago.
Corn, beans, potatoes and pastures
have been injured by the dry wealth
er though scattering showers have
afforded partial relief. Beans are
estimated to yield 60 per cent and
potatoes T2 per cent of average
crops.
Apples promise in the state about
six-tenths and peaches three-fourths
of average crops. The estimate for
apples in the southern counties is
52, and for peaches 76. The esti-
mate for apples in the state one
year ago was 25 and for peaches II.

Items of Interest Taken From
Our Exchanges and
Condensed.
VERY GENEROUS PEOPLE.
Over $4,000 Raised in Calumet
For Benefit of Company
ID, 34th Mich.

Calumet people have shown their
generosity and patriotism by con-
tributing literally to the fund start
ed for the benefit of the members OF
Co. d. The sum of S2,S45.85 has
been collected so far, and all the
collectors have not yet been heard
from. This money will be used to
pay the expenses of the committee
which was sent to receive and care
for the boys at Montauk; also for
the food and clothing provided for
them. This, with the $500 collected
for the benefit of the Red Cross,
makes total of SO, 145. .S5, which
speaks well for city of its. size.
BY the denomination of Senator
Alexander Maitland, of Negaunee,
by the Republican senatorial con
vention of thirty-fst district at
Marquette Wednesday, Senator Bur
rows in all probability gets one
more vote. The convention was
orderly, a surprising contrast to the
two conventions at Negaunee and
Ishpeming held a few days ago.
Marquette county presented two
contesting delegations, one elected
by the Sheldon wing and the other
by the Stephenson wing. The un-
contested delegations from Dickin-
son, Iron and Alger counties or
ganized the convention and after
hearing both sides OF the Marquette
county contest seated the delegation
elected by the Sheldon wing. This
is considered by politicians as a
victory for the Sheldon men and an
indication that their delegation to
the state convention will be recog-
nized there. Mr.. Maitland had no
opposition and was easily nomi-
mated.
Dicorsia White, of Ellis Junction,
Wis, was accidentally shot in the
woods near Perronville Sunday. He
was brought to the hospital at Es-
canada, but died Monday night.
White and another man were out
hunting.
Monday morning First Lieuten-
ant John S. Wilson, of Co. l., Thirty
Fourth regiment, arrived at his
home in Marquette and was given a
great welcome. He is the idol of
his company as he was the only
officer that stood by them.
Private Martin Messner, Co. D,
of Calumet, died at the Calumet 4
Hecla hospital Saturday night.
Messner was lately transferred
from the Ironwood company.
