The Iron Mountain PRESS is as much
opposed to the denomination of Gov.
Pingree as is the Mancelona HERALD
and other reputable Republican or
gaus. The dissatisfaction with the
Governor is not so much on account
of his official acts, as 1t is with his
offensive utterances in regard to
large number of the Republicans of
the State, and of the country as well
as the administration. Also as to
his silence in regard to the principles
and acts of the opposition, and doubt
as to his fealty to and belief in the
principles of the party of which he
is q representative. He may tone
down his exuberance and verbosity
between now and the time for hold
ing the State tion, and should,

dents he is entitled to renomina-

A new breed of prophets has arisen
from the ranks of Democracy, which
bids fair to outclass all the old COM
petitors. Our Uncle Richard Bland
fortells sweeping democratic gains
next fall in the congressional elec-

in his predictions for the present
order of things. The Hon. Champ

cally and announces that the Dem

publican in 1896 by at least 5000 Re-

that the next House OF Represen-
tatives will consist wholly of Dem
Ocrats. That Is the kind OF a prophet
to have.

Our Washington correspondent ur

Our Washington correspondent un-
der date Of the 18th. inst, says: 1T
Is difficult to realize that the awful
story Of the blowing up and sinking,
In Havana harbor, of the U. S. bat
tle-ship Maine, and the drowning
like rats in sewer Of $50 odd of her
brave crew. which has spread a pail
of gloom over Washington and the
country, Is not horrible nightmare.
But, alas! it Is true, too true. There
is but one determination on the part
of the President and the other men,
bers of the administration, and that
is, to arrive at the truth as to
the cause of the catastrophe
Congress is going ahead with its
routine business, the Senate is
discussing the annexation treaty and
appropriation bills, and the House
the bankruptcy bill, but there is but
one object uppermost In the minds OF
Senators and Representatives-the
Maine. Public interest las passed
from the apology of Spain for the
De LONE letter to the Maine. Per
haps II the treachery Of the late Span
ish Minister, now on his way home
In disgrace, had not been so fresh in
the minds Of the public, there would
be less suspicion that there wal
Spanish treachery connected with tho
loss of the Maine and 80 many Of hel
crew. The President and the mem
bers of the Cabinet are 10th to enter
tain such suspicion In the absenc.
OF proof, and are doing everything
possible to cause the public to sus
pend its Judgment pending the in
vestigation now being made for tn,
purpose of showing whether the ex
plosion which wrecked the Maine wa
on the outside or inside of the vessel
aud consequently whether IL wa
caused by accident or design. Presi

and sorrow for the loss Of life by TIT
sinking of the Maine, abandoned th'

There is something amusing, as
we'll as annoying, In the German 0p-
position to American fruit on the
ground that It Is a dissemination of
insect life when fresh. and favored
with zlnck after 1t passes through the
evaporation. The amusing part Is
the pretense that anything is wrong
with the quality or condition OF the
fruit. It's real offense Is too rapid
growth of popularity. Tens Of tbous-
ands of barrels of American apples
have been ordered this winter for
the Hamburg market The great
piles of splendid fruit from Missouri,
Illinois, Kansas, and Arkansas de-
lighted the German consumers, but
the government officials viewed them
with alarm. As on some former Oc-
casions, the head of the prohibit0ry
department devoted to microbes was
called In and promptly discovered, it
Is stated, the San Jose insect known
as the aspidiotus perniciOsus on a
shipment of California apples. The
fact that California ships no apples,
was not considered. A bug was de-
manded by the situation, and 1T suf-

In the mandamus suit Of Gov.
Pingree against the Mich bigan Gen.
trail railroad to compel the company
to sell him a 1000 mile ticket for
$40, 90, good for his family, Judge
Donovan. of Detroit, rendered his
decision Saturday morning. He said
the state was the master, and grant
ed the mandamus, holding that
the law passed by the legislature in
1891 was valid. The act required
railroads in Michigan to sell 1000
mile tickets, good for a family, for
$1,000. The Mich. Central claims
exemption from the law under its
general charter, but Judge Donovan
held that as the company since It's
original purchase and securing of a
special charter In 1846 had bought
managed, built and controlled va.
rious branch roads, amounting TO a
consolidation with some six or eight
lesser lines, and by reason thereof
was subject to the acts of the legis.
lature the same as other roads. The
case will be appealed. -Cheboygan

The products of agriculture form a

The duty of the government at
Washington In the crisis now upon
Us Is plain. The President and his
advisers, in the face Of conflicting re-
IOrts, must remain silent until there
has been q full Investigation of all
circumstances connected with the de-
structlon Of the battle-ship Maine.
II the investigation should settle
beyond dispute that the Maine was
destroyed by an explosion on board
the vessel then the incident Is closed.
Painful and distu rbing as such con-
clusion may be, the people and the
government Of the United States
must bury their dead, mourn over the
calamity. and bear their burden of
sorrow.
But IL the investigation shows that
the Maine was destroyed by Span
iards or the agents of Spa niards then
the government must act. The de-
struction of the battle-ship under
such circumstances would be worse
than an act of war and 1t must be
treated as such. After the notice
usual In civilized warfare, that wo-
mel, children, and other non-com-
batants may be removed, the United
States should proceed at once to Ha-
vana and exact full reparation.
The government cannot speak or
act until the court of inquiry has re-.
ported. Then will be the time for
speech and for actions that speak
louder than words. Ocean.
