PRINTING TEXT Books.
Michigan Legislator Would Have
Text Books Made in
State Prison.

Representative c. E. Ward, oi
Shiawasse, has evolved a plan to
have all text books used in the pub
lie schools of Michigan printed and
bound in some state prison. His
bill on the subject provides that the
superintendent Of public instruction,
the deputy superintendent of public
instruction and the president OF the
normal college shall constitute q
state board of text book commits
sioners. They may acquire, by pur-
chase or otherwise, copyright of
text books, and then they are to
select some penal institution best
suited for the purpose, which is to
be equipped with printing and bind
ing machinery, and the inmates are
to print and bind the books, the
various local school boards to pur-
chase the books at actual cost and to
sell them to the pupils at actual
cost, with the possible addition Of
the expense of transportation.
Mr.. Ward says his bill would
affect no Michigan industry, saying
no text books are printed in this
state.
Representative Halliday has bill
on the same line, tut would have
the text books furnished to pupils
free of charge.

ALL BIDS REJECTED.
No Action Taken by Superintend-
ents of the Poor in Matter OF
Building Poor House.

Sealed bids were received by II. J.
Selfert, chairman OF the board oi
superintendents OF the poor for
Baraga county, on the erection Of q
building on the county poor farm.
The board has on hand an appro-
preparation of $4,000 with which to
construct a suitable building. When
the bids were examined at a meet
ing Of the board Thursday all were
found to be above the amount speci-
fed, and were accordingly rejected.
The firms submitting proposals
were Paul F. p. Mueller, the North
ern Construction Co., and McCurdy
Bros, all of Houghton. The lowest
offer in the bunch was s. 300. No
bids were entered Gby contractors
residing in the county, which was

If satisfactory contract cannot
be entered into for the erection of a
building the board will have the
work done by day labor with re-
liable man in charge.

Awful Powers or Radium.

Any person having any rGdium in
his possession should destroy same
at once If the following statements
by the Chicago Tribune are true:
The newly discovered mineral salt
called radium, of which there are
but two pounds in the world and
which is valued at 81 900, 900 a
pound, is being experimental with
by European and American scientists
with startling results. The radiant
power of the mineral is so great
that it is estimated the electrons
from the two pounds OF it known to
exist, If directed to the purpose,
would have sufficient power to
throw the earth off it's orbit. No
one expsrimenter is possessed of
more of the mineral than can / c

Editor The Manning Times:

AS our town is on boom it would be
very pleasant to have you and the many
readers of your worthy paper to give
us a visit that you may see what a
change has taken place with US. You
would not know our town Judging from
last you've seen it. I tell you the
merchants have certainly put q move
on this place. On last Saturday eight
clerks stood behind the counters of one
store and not one ate any idle bread.
Still the merchants add to their already
large business am satisfied more space
will be demanded. We have fine
business set of merchants and ali are
doing a nice trade. Sumter will be
made to feel this town this fall.
In YOUR issue of Sept. 30 Buster gave
our county commissioners a raklng. I
think Buster is mistaken and little
unjust towards them especially as one
halls from here and he having the full
confidence of all OF US we know he will
have things right or a row. Now Bus
ter taking your position that OF blowing
our magistrates good work as claim
for the chain gang if that is our hope
then your foundation is on sand ,old boy
for century continued as itnow stands
from our magistrates Office would not
entitle US twenty minutes work OF one
convict, Iboth legs and has seen his
Tooth birthday, and as a proof I refer to
the records of thelchaingang, I also was
told short while ago by one in position
to know as yet the officer had not up to
then paid in fifty dollars. Now, friend
Buster, where is your claim there is
plenty for the office to see after but 1t
Seems impossible to get it down this
very way. A warrant was denied
an old colored woman, so she claims,
because she could not raise three
dollars, the amount she claimed he re-
ouired as cost for issuing the warrant,
and I have every right to believe
her as saw her trying to borrow the
money from one of our merchants, and
was told it was case for the circuit
court go with it to the solicitor.
The charge being grave one that OF
assault with intent to kill, the act being
committed upon her son at Felders post
office last Saturday night, it seems any
magistrate ought at once have seen af-
ter as the occasion gave great annoy
ance to Mr.. Felder's family. The boy
was cut in the scalp with an ak, struck
in the back and the. chances are that
he will die and no warrant. If the as
sailant gets away who will be to blame?
You see, Buster, you are IN bad shape.
Come again. ANON.

The growth of this town and increase
of business has caused the streets to be
more crowded with people and some
times little disorder occurs and for
this reason the officers have secured

taking care of the law breakers, nc
matter who they are or where come
from.

The matter of appointing

common that it begins to look as
if it will become necessary to
increase the number of circuits
in order to meet the demands of
litigants. We have heretofore
been opposed to increasing the
circuits, but, unless conditions
change, in our opinion it will be
cheaper to elect more regular
judges.
