wooDMEN TO CELEBRATE.

The Woodmen of Iron River are
planning on having big time on the
LIST OF September in Iron River. IL
was the plan to make the affair similar
to the big Woodmen picnics held by
the order in the lower part of the state
where thousands of Woodmen and
y cir families congregate at picnic
in some central spot and have genu-
inc good time.
The affair at Iron River will probab-
~ be delayed until the 18th uf Sept.
ember in Difference TO the proposed big
celebration in Crystal Falls. The
agricultural society appointed a com
mittee to wait upon the Woodmen and
ask them TO put oil the celebration
until that date so that the two features
may be celebrated at the same time.

Progress. the bright little paper
published by the prisoners in Marquet-
To- prison has the following comment
on the piobatioon law passed by the
legislature last winter.
The last Michigan legislature made
move in the right direction in
passing an act authorizing Judges to
release certain casses of offenders
after conviction under Suspended
sentence, If such a course seemed adj
visable in the discretion of the court
There is no question thar many boys
and men drift into crime without
fairly realizing whittier they are
going until they fin themselves sud
denly enmeshed by the law, while
special temptations and exceptional
circumstances MAKE casual offenders OF
others Such men are often void Of
deliberate criminal intent chance
and circumstances aud certain lack
of prudence being largely responsible
for their undoing. To this class of
offenders few weeks. or months, in
Jail waiting for the court TO convene,
and the strain and agony of public
trail and convict, are all that is needed
to bring home to them an acute realiza-
ton OF the folly of their ways.
To send such men TO prison is TAR
worse than useless. The actual i'm
prisonment in penitentiary will not
add one iota to their newly aroused
fear OF the law. rather the reverse,
while the fact OF their having been in
such place, will handicap them
more or less ever after in making an
honest living and ASSOCIATE ng with the
right kind of people. And besides
the chances are first class that. what
between the Influence of evil associa-
tions and the hatred, shame and dis
enlargement coming with imprison-
ment, the casual offender is transform
ed into the habitual criminal, bent on
crime henceforth with deliberation
and conscious intent
Thus 10y means OF this probation, or
suspended sentence, law the judges
may not only mitigate much useless
misery. bat avoid forcing chance and
caual tansgressors into criminal
environment and associations. OF
course a measure like this 20 be a
success. requires rare insight and
discrimination ON the part OF the
courts. as we'll as large measure OF

The quiet boom on among the an
thracite miners for Judge George Gray
Of Delaware for president is assuming
tangible shape.
A canvass of the officers Of the Mine
workers local shows that great
majority of those who are democrats
favor Judge Gray's nomination.
1t is expected the judge will be en-
dorsed for president by the approaching
Schuylkill county democratic conven-
tion. Judge Gray was president of the
anthracite coal strike commission.

The Mining Journal is in receipt of
a letter from John Curry, secretary
Of the 500 baseball team, in which
the writer complains bitterly of the
position taken by the Calumet team.
namely. that il will not leave
Houghton county Of games. The 500
team, so the secretary writes, lost two
games to Calumet at Calumet early in
the season. 1t is DESTROYS of playing
other games with the Calumets. and
is willing to go to the copper country
again but ii thinks that Calumet
should first give it home games at
the 500, where the team will have
chance TO make little money and
satisfy the home fans. Surely this is
only reasonable. The Mining Journal
yesterday mo rning took occasion to
express its regret at the attitude of
the Calumets nine which cannot help
but be inimical to the general good of
the sport. 1t should be the aim Of the
copperdom mines to do what they can
to secure general baseball interest in
the upper peninsula. To do so they
should be willing to give frequent
dates to outside teams and also to
visit outside cities. IL is to be hoped
that the Calumet aggregation will
reconsider its shortsighted decision and
book games at the 500, Marquette and
the other towns that support good
teams If IL persists in in its present
course it will one of these days have
abundant reason to regret It's persis-
lance.
