IT has been rumored in this parti-
cular neck of the woods that Hon.
Chase S. Osborn, of the 500, late
railroad commissioner, will soon
stick out his gubernatorial lightning
rod. In fact it was reported last
week that the rod was already up,
but this report seems tohave been
a canard. 1t is pretty generally be-
lieved that Mr.. Osborn will be in
the field next year, and there will
be much surprise If he makes the
contrary announcement. Warner,
Diekema, and ]. S. Stearns are
other possibilities, and even at this
early date it is clearly apparent that
there will be no dearth of entries.
OF course the 500 man will be an
upper peninsula favorite if he goes
adjaunting after the nomination
again.-Marquette Mining Journal.
