Stone asked of a friend from this
county whom he met shortly
after the convention was as to
the qualifications of the nominee.
For, said the Judge. lit takes
a good man to keep the journal. y
That is saying great deal. 1t
takes man OF education and
ability 10 fill, that Office. Mr..
Cole has both of these. Can
the people of this county afford
to leave competency out of the
question when one act OF
this official may cost them
great financial loss. Voters,
think this matter over and
the more you you consider
it the more the importance of il
will be impressed upon you.
One individual says that he is
going to vote against Cole be.
cause he is not a taxpayer and
others are going to do SO for the
same reason. Let us ask such
people how much more of a tax.
payer is Mr.. Coles opponent
than is Mr.. Cole himself? That
plea is simply ridiculous. If
the people want none but a tax
paper they should have chosen
such a man upon either ticket.
Another reason we have heard
suggested is that Mr.. Cole is a
young man. We want to ask all
such people if the young men of
this county are not entitled to a
candidate upon the ticket We
have in Crystal Falls alone over
100 voters who are young men.
There is a proportionate amount
throughout the whole county,
Are not these young men en-
titled, in all fairness and justice,
to a place upon the Republican
ticket? Moreover they are all
intelligent They know what it
means to cast a vote and il is
these young men that the county
must rely upon in the future.
Mr.. Cole is their candidate and
he should receive the enthus.
iastic support Of the older class
Of voters for that reason.
But above all Mr. Cole
is Republican Wheen he
was defeated for a nomina.
ton two years ago did he
do as his opponent has done
today? Did he jump over and
run for the Office upon the Dem
ocratic ticket? No He said
that the will Of the Republicans
as expressed in their convention
was enough for him and he
turned in and helped elect his
successful rival. How many
votes were cast against the Re.
publican ticket in the township
of Mastodon two years ago when
Mr.. Cole had just as much right
to buck" the Republican ticket
as have the people Of Stambaugh
today There was not one vote
against the ticket and every vote
there was recorded for STAN
baugh's candidate for represent.

The X. O. T.. Nj. have again shown
the promptness with which they settle
death claims, they being the first of
the several societies and companies in
which the late Geo. Divine held poll

received the full amount Tuesday.
A special dispatch to the Grand
Rapids Herald from Ferdinanda, Fla,
August s, states that Harry Adams, a
popular young man of that city and
member OF Co oath Michigan, died
Monday OF typhoid fever and that his
remains would be brought home. The
same dispatch also said that "a number
of the boys had been sent to the hospi-
tai at Atlanta on account OF sickness
among them being Robert McLaugh-
lin of Co. b. The many friends of the
latter in this vicinity hope for his
speedy recovery.
In the legitimate extension of add
yertising patronage to newspapers,
there is often lack of public spirit on
the part of the merchants and others.
Without newspapers "A city or town
would be unworthy Of a place on the
map. Everybody knows that. Yet it
costs money. There is no business in
a town that would not in some way re-
ceive benefit from advertising at
least it would be an incidental way OF
advertising the town. Yet many OF
those who expect the newspaper TO bear
this or that burden for their own or
general welfare, never reinforce the
journalistic sinews Of war TO the extent
OF nickle per annum. We consider
that simply as a matter of local pride,
as well as an improvement to their
business, every man should advertise
regularly, at all events to certain ex-

company to extend the Lowell * Has

BARON IN DISGRACE.
Austrian Nobleman Discharged from
 Army on Account of Delinquencies.

Lexington, Ky, November 155.-Baron Waldcck de Vilamil an Austrian noble- man. and a captain of the Seventh volun- teer infantry, dmmunes), is in disgrace and has left for parts unknown. A few days ago he was discharged from his regiment for various offenses, principal among which was refusing to pay his debts. He wed money to many officers and men, and had large accounts with several merchants. Creditors swooped down upon him in his tent last night and attached his sword and uniform. He later secured clothing some- where and skipped out.
 He claimed to be cousin of the late em- press of Austria, and sent a telegram of condolence to the emperor at the time of her tragic death.
 General Sanger and stan. who had ex- pected to leave for the south tonight, will not get off with the Seventh immunes, who have been ordered to remain here for the present on account of the muddy condi- tion of the camp at Macon, Ga.

BRIEF SESSION HELD.
Anglo-American Joint High Commission . Meets in Washington.

Washington, November 15.-The Anglo American joint commission held a brief session a Il o'clock this forenoon and then gave way to meetings of the British and American members separately. These sep arate conferences were for the purpose of going over the grounds on which reciprocity can be discussed. Attention Is now centered almost exclusively on this topic. The schedules have been exchanged, but it has been considered best to take up each arti- cle separately and discuss the possibility of tarin concessions upon it. The expecta- ton is that the work will proceed so that each side will know by the end of the pres- ent week just what articles the other side desires to incorporate in reciprocity ar engagement and what reduction of rates is possible on those articles. It Is realized by members of the commission that this is most important branch of the work before them and one on which the success or fail- ure of the work on other branches depends to large extent. Although the strictest secrecy is, observed, the general expressions coming from members of the commission continue to be hopeful and some kind of a reciprocity agreement will be reached.

THE ENTIRE ARMY

Washington, November -i5< 5<-Secretary AL ger, after conference today with Adjutant- General Corbin and Major Shaler of the ordnance bureau, decided that the United States armories have progressed with the manufacture of the Krag-Jorgensen rifles to point where he could undertake to arm the entire army with this weapon. At the outbreak of the war only the regular soldiers had the smal-bore rife, and the volunteers were necessarily armed with the Springfield except in few cases, such as that of the rough riders. The armores have been running steadily ever since the war turning out the small-bore rifle at the rate of 5000 per month, until the stock on hand warrants the undertaking which the secretary has ordered. As fast as the guns can be packed and sent forward the Spring. fields in the hands of the soldiers will be retired and turned into the arsenals

TWELVE PERSONS KILLED.
Grand Trunk Express Train Crashed Into Moving Freight.

Trenton, Ont, November 15.-A Grand Trunk express train bound for Toronto crushed into a moving freight train near Murray Hill crossing. two miles west of here at 3:ao this morning, and several cars were smashed almost to splinters. So far as known, twelve persons were killed and a dozen or more seriously injured.
 A misplaced switch was the cause of the accident, the westbound train taking the wrong track, on which was the eastbound freight. The train consisted of express mail and baggage cars, second-class car, one first-cass coach and two Pullman sleepers The second-class car was next to the baggage car and ahead of the first-class coach and sleepers. It was pretty well fill- ed with people. there being twenty or more passengers in 1t and hardly any of them escaping without injury.
