have always been democrat.
My highest political ambition is
to serve my native state as one of
the judges of her highest court.
The Judges of the court now in
office all lived east or south of the
main line of the Iron Mountain
Railway at the time of their elec-
ton, and am the only candidate
for this place who lives west or
north of that line. If other things
are equal, it seems only ordinary
fairness to give The western and
northern part Of the State a rep
resentative on the bench.
1t is generally understood that
the court is almost three years
behind with its business. Such a
delay must necessarily result, in
many cases, in denial of justice.
If elected | shall favor the adopt
ion Of sucn rules as will facilitate
the dispatch Of business, and I
respectfully suggest two or three
things that | think would be
effective to that end.
Some time could be saved by
making the written opinions Of
the court shorter, and this could
be done, | think, without lessen
ing their value as precedents.
Some further time could be
saved by shortening the vaca-
ton Of the judges. The judges
usually have three months vaca-
ton in the summer. Very few of
even the hardest working lawyers
or business men take so much
rest during the year.
And still further time could be
saved when cases are submitted
on oral argument if the court
would decide the case and an
nounce the decision at once. A
brief statement Of the points on
which the case was decided could
be filed later by one of the judges
designated for the purpose. Cir
cult courts, composed Of one
judge, have to decide cases that
way. | am persuaded that five
supreme judges could do much
better than the one circuit Judge.
1t seems to me some such rules
as these should be adopted until
the congested condition of the
court docket is relieved. And l
hope may not seem immodest
when | suggest that the election
of a new and younger man to the
bench who has abundant vitality
and willingness to work, and who
has a reputation to make, would
perhaps contribute something
toward improving the unfortunate
condition.

Questions and answers.

Q. Last spring my black raspberries
were dry at the bottom of the canes and
would easily break. What was the
trouble, aud is there remedy?
a. The trouble is probably anthra-
crosse. The bark becomes dry and scaly
aud farther up the cane you will see
small brown spots which, when removed,
will reveal small portion of the inner
bark killed by the action of the spore
which is fungus feeding on the bark
The portion of the cane ranging about
six inches from the earth up, will be
covered with scales of dead bark and the
cane will possess small ridges where
nature has created new sap ducts to try
to overcome the action of the fungus.
Remedy-remove and burn all old
canes as soon as the crop is OFT, using
Bordeaux mixture as a spray, from early
spring until new canes have their full
growth This will save the new canes
and carry a partial crop the present
season.
q, Last summer my young peach
trees started nicely and grew about
month, when some of them began to
shriyel and died within a week. with the
leaves on about three-quarters grown.
The orchard is two years old, aud | can
not account for the action except some
disease in the trees when ! got them.
The trees came from you, Mr.. Prater,
and | would like to have you answer
through the paper.
a. Not wishing to give answer by my
own personal opinion, have selected an
article co vering this point by the best
authority in the state.
Mr.. l.. r. Taft and myself wish to
thank the writer for his frankness, and
would gladly answer any question of
public good, whether personal or not

and snow and thus prevent the deep
freezing of the soil. Where this has not
been provided an excellent substitute is
the mulching of the land beneath the
trees with straw manure to act in the
same way. 1t should not be forgotten,
however, that either the cover crop or
the mulch will greatly increase the dan
ger from mice. and il either is used close
to the trunks of young trees they should
be protected with mounds of earth or by
wrapping the trunks with veneers or
building paper
In the extreme north, where the IN
jury from this form of 'root-rot"
is most severe, it is only possible to
grow the apple when the trees have been
budded upon hardy stocks. The form
seems to he best adapted for this pur-
pose is the wild form of Siberian crab,
which will be found free from injury any
where the hardest varieties can be
grown. In fact, many kinds which are
otherwise well adapted for the far north
have their trunks injured by sun-scald.
By grating some hardy variety such
as Tolman Sweet upon the wild Siberian
crab, and then top working this at the
height of three feet the variety desired
it is possible to increase the northern
range of most varieties.

MaIfo-Crapo company's Success.


When the Malto-Grapo Co. was organ
lied here last spring everybody hoped
for their success. They went to work
as il they meant business, and erected
the finest grape juice plant in the coun-
try and equipped it with the latest and
best machinery they could find, SO that
when they started in they put up over
$4,000 gallons of their matted grape juice
without a hitch. The malt they have
used with their grape Juice is honey
like substance taken from barley malt,
and contains diastose, the greatest of
digestive properties. This also imparts
to the grape Juice a richness and a flavor
not found in any other grape Juice on
the market. Wherever it has come in
contact with other juices it has been
pronounced the best. Knowing they
had fine article, they were anxious to
bring it before the people so that it
could be tested beside other brands
For this purpose Mr.. Doud, the general
manager of the company, went to st.
Louis in August to secure location for
display at the exposition, but came
home with the idea of a franchise for
selling Malto-Grapo by the glass. A lit
tie later Mr. Wildey and Mr.. Doud re-
turned to st. Louis with the backing OF
the Michigan commissioner and all the
state officials, but were unable to close
deal But the management have kept
steadily at it, and last Saturday were
rewarded by concession that will ena-
bile them to dispose of their entire out
put for this season, and they hope quite
a large amount of next seasons crop, as
the fair runs from May to December.
They base their sales estimate on what
was done at the Pan-American by an
other grape juice company. And when
you take into consideration this fact,
that at Buffalo the weather was cool and
the water good, while at St Louis it is
hot and the water supply comes from
the Mississippi, and only short dis
lance below the point where the Chicago
drainage canal empties into it, it would
seem that they could sell double the
amount of product like Malto-Grapo
at st. Louis. At the price they get for
their product by the glass, over $500 per
gallon, ii is a conservative estimate TO say
that they can clear up over $4,000 for
this seasons output This will pay them
handsome dividend and leave them a
good surplus with which to enlarge their
business. Further than that, it will
give their product a prominence that
100000 could not secure for them
through the press. They will come in
contact with the very people they wish
to reach, from the south and west.
The success of this company means
much for Paw Paw, not only as a market
for grapes, but the name Paw Paw will
be known throughout the country, thus
bringing our little city into prominence.
We understand this company will offer
a small block of stock to meet the de-
mands of the fair, the first being offered
for a short time only for 70 cents and
soon advancing to Sl00, as it is surely
worth that to-day with the present out
look
If you are Interested in the success of
Paw Paw and your interests, see the
Malto- Grape people at once.

Chlcago's head was bowed in grief
Saturday over the awful catasthrope
OF Wednesday afternoon. Business
generally was suspended, the banks

goods houses along State street re-

has been unprecedented In the his

noon that this demand had been fully
met the stores closed for the balance
of the day.
For more than an hour at noon the
bells OF the city tolled requiem
for the dead. The idea of an hour
of mourning was not generally dis
seminated, but when at noon the sound

copal church were borne by the wind
over the heart OF the city il seemed
as though every other church in the
