Brothers Badly Afflicted.

This from an exchange is not so
bad: Two brothers from a north
Missouri county appeared at the
portals of the st. Joseph insane
asylum, one of them to be incar-
cerated there as patient, the other
one having him in charge as far as
the asylum. They were dressed
very much alike and the casual OBJ
server on the train would not have
detected any signs of insanity in
either. When the keeper appeared
each insisted that he had brought
the other. The asylum manager was
in quandary. He chatted with the
visitors until late hour and then
locked them in a room together.
Then he telegraphed the authorities
In the town where the brothers lived:
1.-TWO men from your town arrived
today; both dressed alike; one calls
himself Bill and talks about build
ing an air line to the moon; the
other goes by the name Of Dave and
advocates free silver at ratio of l6

The Latest Campaign Under
Consideration by the
Governor.
AFTER MINING COMPANIES.
State Now said to be Getting only
a Small Per Cent Of its just
- Dues From Them.

Gov. Pingree is contemplating a
new campaign, one against the mann
moth copper mining interests of the
upper peninsula. For wears he has
rallied against the Calumet g. Hecla
as u vast corporation, says the De
troit Journal, and against the vast
quantities of money the mines have
made and comparatively small taxes
they have paid.
Monday, one closely associated
with the governors plans, said that
he was seriously considering q bill
for the legislature, providing that
the great copper mining companies
pay to tlieJstate Il tax on the market
value of their stock.
AT present the companies pay
but an enthusiastically small tax,
the governors advisor said, "only q
local tax upon their holdings and
output, just about sufficient to run
the county governments, which they
control, in the upper peninsula
Thus, Houghton, equally as rich AZ
Wayne county, pays the state, when
it comes to equalzing state values
for state taxes, but an ininitesinal.
ly small portion of the share due
from it as represented by its great
riches.
To assess the mining companies
their stock in lieu of all other state
taxes would mean a large sum to
the state Golfers, and lower tho
burden OF taxation upon the farmers
very perceptiably. 1t is estimated
by the governor advisors that the
Calumet q Hecla would pay about
ten times as much taxes as it does
now.
The governor, when asked if be
contemplated such an onslaught up
on the copper region, said
II have nothing whatever to say
on that point for publication now. :"

TYPHOID FEVER RACES
IN THE KLONDIKE.
Many Men are i'll of the Disease.
And Scurvy Also Has
Its Victims.

The hospitals in the Klondike have
been taxed to their utmost capacity
with fever stricken patients during
the past month. Typhoid fever is
the bane of the prospector life, and
he is getting his full share of troub
les. Advices received by the state
department in Washington say tho
disease is making rapid inroads on
the health of the most healthy men
10 the most frigid districts of Alas
ka. Scurvy cases are also reported,
brought on by salted food, but many
men with plenty of fresh meat have
fallen victim of this disease by
overwork and exposure.
A rush over the ice to the Stewart
river district is expected soon, as
some good prospects have been
found on Thistle creek and other
smaller creeks in that district. The
owner Of Discovery claim,on Thistle
creek, has refused $4,000 for his
claim. All of Thistle creek, 30
miles in length, was staked in less
than two weeks.
The price of provisions in Dawson
City is still very high, the living ex-
penses OF miner who buys his food
averaging Sc day. The advices say
that if some supply company would
send few thousand tons of provis-
ions to that district and be satisfied
with profit of from 200 to 300 per
cent, 1t would be safe investment
and blessing to the miners.

FAIL NOT TO ELECT GRANT.
He Is Scholarly and Profound
Student Of Jurisprudence.

oeuuOhO VI OuIlspANuChCCs u
THE SENTINEL thoroughly endorses
the following from the Allion r.
corder relative to the candidacy of
Judge Grant for reelection to the
supreme bench:
"As the discussion of the com
parative qualifications of the several
candidates for the Republican nom
ination for justice of the supreme
court continues and becomes specific
1T is more and more apparent that
failure on the part of the Republi-
can party to re-elect Judge Claudius
b. Grant to the supreme court would
be most serious mistake.
Judge Grant is an all round schol-
ar and a profound student of juris-
prudence, and his occupancy of his
present position has increased his
reputation so that many rank him in
learning, legal acumen and broad
comprehension of legal principles
with Campbell, Christiancy and
Cooley, men who have made the SUI
preme court of Michigan famous in
every state in the Union. His
written opinions are models of ele-
giant and forceful dlction, legal
learning and grasp of the broad
principles of Jurisprudence.
In so far as there has been any at
tempt to make the decisions of our
highest judicial tribunal the subject
of party consideration by self seek
ing politicians; to suggest, even, a
censored judiciary in the state, there
will be such an enthusiastic support
OF the judiciary as will forever pre-
clude the influence of men who seek
to introduce an element of inequality
and to destroy the untrammeled in
dependence which has always been
the strongest factor in the efficiency
of the coordinate divisions of our
government. The best way to
thoroughly vindicate the state ju
dietary is to re-elect Judge Grant.
