ocrats will do, they feel morally bound
to do it.
That is what Uncle Joe Cannon calls
legislation by unanimous consent, and,
of course, it is a very rep~rehensible way
of doing business. But it is likely to
continue just as long as the present
senate rules live, which, according to
present appearances, will be to the end
of time.
German and Aldrich are very much
the same type of men. They are first
of all business men. They understand
the currents of trade and appreciate the
effect of legislation on commercial in
t%erests. They are organizers and deft
handlers of men. They can read char
acter and they al keep their own coun-
sci. They understand weaknesses in
others to which they can appeal. They
are always in the game.
German is more of a public speaker
than A1drich. He is not an orator in any
way, but he has a faculty of aggressive
ness in debate which Aldrich has never
shown. Aldrich when he talks uses
a conversational tone, and goes about
it as If he were explaining something
before the board of directors of a rail-
road. German is e exactly CONVEX
s%ational. There is always some little
touch of mystery in everything he says,
and his face is jesuitical in its inscruta-
bility. Aldrich, op the other hand, is
seemingly the most frank and confding
OF men. One wonders how it can be
that this smiling, easy-going, compan-
ionable fellow al have SO many tricks
up his sleeve.

TYPHOID FEVER.
Warming to Cities and Villages
Having a General Water
Supply.

ouPPhys
The weekly bulletin issued by the
Michigan state board OF health for
the week ending February 13, 1904,
indicates that diarrhoea was more
prevalent than the average for the
corresponding week in the seven
preceding years. Also that typhoid
fever was much more prevalent, sc
per cent more reports than the
average stated the presence of
typhoid fever. A contamination Of
the water supply would account for
the unusual prevalence of both dis
eases.
In winter that does not usually
occur in country districts. So far
as relates to typhoid fever, the re-
ports of it came mainly from cities
having a general water supply. If
by reason Of unusual waste because
of the great cold, any city or village
is temporarily obtaining water from
polluted river or lake, the local
authorities should promptly notify
the citizens to boil the drinking
water.

A peculiar accident happened to
two of the crew working the large
rotary snow plow, which was doing
service on the South Shore, near
Calumet 1t appears that owing to
some work being necessary outside,
two OF the men got out and were
walking in the deep snow alongside
the track Those who we're work
ing the plow did not know that
these men had left, and started the
plow. When the snow which was
thrown alongside the track struck
them, they became completely
buried in it. They were not missed
until the train had proceeded quite
a little way, but when the true
state Of affairs was realized the re-
mainder of the trainmen returned
and dug the unfortunate men out.
They were submerged for some
little time, and experienced some
queer sensations during that period.

GAME WAS A TIE.
Indoor Base Ball Game Between
L'Anse and Tamarack
Teams Monday.

Monday afternoon the Tamarack
indoor base ball team crossed bats
with the L'Anse team in the Town
Hall. The game was called at 8
O'Clock; and was witnessed by a
fair-sized audience.
Mcintyre and Davis were the
battery for the local team, and
Thomas and Corgan were the points
for the Tamaracks.'
The game was one OF the best
played in L'Anse this winter, and
was lively and exciting up to the
close of the first half OF the ninth
inning, when q dispute was raised
by the visitors regarding the score.
The score card showed that the
game at that time stood 5 to 8, but
the visitors claimed. 6 runs to their
credit, and after some argument
they left the hall.
A number OF spectators who had
also been keeping score, state that
B to B was the correct count.
The members of the Tamarack
team are jolly, fine fellows, and it is
to be regretted that the game ter
minated in a misunderstanding.
