NOMINATIONS.
The chair, under the order of bus
finess called for nominations for
state senator. VIM, Hull took the
floor and after extolling the past
work of Senator VIM. Bulge placed
Him in nomination. No others APP
peared and he was chosen by accla-
nation.
For representatives Alf Bulge
nominated Jas. Redman and J. III.
Wallis named w. w. Clark. II
making his nominating speech ALI
Bulge said he "was not prophet
nor the son of prophet" This
came outunwittingly, perhaps, for
his father has propkesied that Bear
Lake will go republican. Both
nominations went through by accla-
nation.
BAGLEY's BoNIBsHELL.
When the chair called for nom1-
nations for commissioners, John A.
Bagley took the floor. He prefaced
his speech by remarking that he
didn't know which district he lived
in Somebody told him it was the
third. Then he continued by say
ing that ''it might be little out of
order to name the third district
nominee first, but he was going too.
Then came the record of some man,
nobody, except . few who had been
let into the secres, seemed to know
who, and all were in eager expect
ancy for him to name his man. But

told them that his nominee had been
a prominent democrat, had held of
flee as such, was strong everywhere,
ETC., etc. There was death like
stiffness now and. every word of
Johns was eagerly listened too.
Finally, after a long preroration Of
the abilities of his candidate he
named Joseph S. Robson, of Mont
Ipelier. It was followed by consi9s
cradle applause, during which John
still held the floor, and before the
delegates could get their second
wind, he moved that the nomination
be made by acclamation and it went
through with a whoop. By this
time the 'second wind'' had been
found, and for fear the rest of the
nominees for commissionersbip
might be Robisonized, some stall
wart republican moved that a recess
of ten minutes be had to give the
other districts a chance to find out
who they wanted. 1t carried.

ironical one to say the least. Blu
Alf went in by acclamation just TIL
same.
For assessor Elijah Trembling 0
St. Charles was nominated by accla
nation. If it hadn't been for Jo
Robison's nomination this one o
the St, Charles man, might hav
caused some comment, but asst wa
theqdelegates had evidently becom
used to surprises and therefore sal
nothing.
THE FIRST BALLOT.
At this juncture VIM. HILL aros

Good Gain Is Shown In Most of
the Counties During the
Past Decade.
BARAGA COUNTY HAS 1890.

With An Increase Of
2O,674.

Houghton is the fourth county in
the state in point Of population, the
census figures announced at Wash
ington last week placing the num-
ber of people living within its
boundaries at 66,063. A large gain
over the preceding census is shown.
The population in 1890 was 1886,
the increase being 20,674. Wayne
is the first county in the state with
a population of 34S, ,793, Kent second
with 129,7l4, and Saginaw third
with 81, ,222.
The entire state showed healthy
growth in its population during the
last decade, but in four similar per-
iods the growth was larger than for
the ten years ending in 1900. The
population now is 2,420, 9S2, as
against 2,O93,SS9 in 1890, an in
crease of 327 ,093, or 1906 per cent.

Items Of Interest Taken From
Our Exchanges and
Condensed.
FIVE MEN DROWNED.
We're Washed Off q ScOw in
Tow of the Tug
Smith.

News of the drowning of five men
near Grand Marais was reported at
Sault Ste Marie Monday. In some
unknown way the menOwere washed
or thrown from scow in tow of

drowned. Their names were: Joseph
Billings, residence unknown; Joseph
Kascaden, residence unknown; Will
liam Faulkner, Parkhill, Ont. f;
Ernest Nizer, and Herman Wend-
sail, Sanilac, Mich. The scow had
unloaded railroad iron near Grand
Marais, and it is supposed the men
got on board in the night and went
out with the scow when the tug
pulled out early Monday morning.
1t is said ten men were on the scow,
and also that the captain did not
know that the men were there when
the tug pulled out. 1t has since
been stated that the above report is
untrue.
