The Power Unknown

Man measures the speed Of the

and converts II to his use He con-
trolls the death dealing current Of
electricity, and sends it in the quiet
ness of hidden force through a
slender wire to do his bidding In o
multitude of ways. Man seems to have
conquered the universe by his in
ventive genius, and to have made the
elements his slaves. BY his skill he
brings In touch almost the shores of
continents, and writes upon the bands
which link them together-SAFETY
He builds homes for his rest, and
places for his. labor and amusement,
and by his touch of modern perfec-
ton they are proclaimed beyond the
power Of destruction. He increases
his ability in mechanical construction,
and faces disease with wisdom more
marvellous than the miracles of the
past. In the security Of his strength
he abides in peace and assurance.
undisturbed by any fear, and why
should he not, for has he not gained
supremacy over all that which
brought to generations gone their dis
aster and desolation?
This seems truth indisputable,
when by the stroke of a power be-
yond and above all calculations of
man, seeming fact and theory, ana
conclusion and knowledge, are con.
tradlcted, and he stands In helpless,
abject defeat before the ruins of his
own triumph.

1t is the Galvestons, Chicagos and
Baltimores which come to us in shock
ing contradiction to our claims of per

catastrophes which bring us again to
recognition of our weakness, and
realization of the existence of an
unknown, unreasonable power which
stops at no barriers.

tural, fireproof buildings Of recent con-
struction.
To the more thoughtful these great
disasters have a significance beyond
that suggested by the loss Of fortunes,
or even the horror Of the loss of life,
they bring us face to face with that
power unknown, which breaks down
the plans of men, and places him In
the weakness of an uncertainty which

Representative Welker has stirred
up q hornets nest around his ears by
introducing a bill requiring that oil
persons who are authorized as riotar-
les public shall be lawyers or some
one holding the offlce of mayor or
justice of the peace. The bill was
planned by the lawyers of the state
and had the endorsement Of the ba
of this county. II Is claimed that ur-
der the present law which allows any
person to become notary public, that
all business houses, stores, shops, etc,
have some one in their employ ap-
pointed notary SO that they do not
have to 60 out of the building to
make oath to anything or have an

for administering an oath and making

on the other hand insist that the pres.

More About the Fair.

The more the fair problem Is studied
the more suggestions are made as to
methods for exciting interest and COM
petition. While it may seem to be
narrow thing to do. many farmers are
of the opinion that exhibits should be
confined to the county. and for this
reason. Large breeders who travel
from one fair to the other to exhibit
their stock do more for the adyertls-
ing it gives them than for the money
that is made. They keep their stock
fatter than any ordinary farmer could
afford to do. and in fact SO fat that the
animals are ruined often for breeding
purposes, and instead of being fair
samples Of breed. they are normal.
Against such, the average farmer has
no show in connection. II the best
premiums were given to such cattle as
the Stark county farmer raises, and
outsiders were excluded, 1t would pay
the home man TO exhibit animals that
are in good growing condition and not
pampered ND for the occasion.
The same rule should apply to
horses, cattle, sheep and hogs. The
professional sheep exhibitors have
warm stables and they shear their
sheep In February or March. They are
then blanketed and kept in good grow
ing order until the fair. The result is
that they have long growth of wool,
make good showing and carry off
the premiums. This is done with both
the fine and coarse wool sheep.
1t might be wise to offer some in
ducement to breeders OF rare cattle
outside of the county to bring them
here so as to give the farmer an oppor-
tunity to see what they are. but in
the main the big premiums should go
where they will do the most good for
the people and the fair.

It is rather surprising, but the uni

of Japan.
The horrors of Siberia are recalled
and there is little sympathy for a
government that consigns people to a
living death for a trivial crime or a
political difference. Russia may be
civilized by the time the Japs gel
through with her.

stated once that the most effective
fire service was in suppressing fires
before they got dangerous. 1t Is a
class of work for which department
gets little credit. The public as a
rule sees only the spectacular dis
plays at a large confagration. The
chief is right. The fire that Is sup
pressed in its incipiency is robbed of
its dangers before they get uncoiled.

1t Is not much wonder Russia was
playing for delays. With one of her

Slump In Business Bodies III For a First

Owing to the slump in business
which hit Crystal Falls pretty hard
the past fall and winter, the outlook
for an exciting season in baseball next

be but, while we are in the air over
future prospects, the copper country is
all in expectancy over the coming
season.
Calumet had matters all its own way
last season, and despite that Hancock,
Baraga and other sports in that section
sunk several thousand dollars in an
endeavor to secure teams that would
take the aggregation Of the copperdom
metropolis into camp, the latter con-
tinued its winning gait until the last.
This year, however, Lake Linden will
be an aspirant for the championship,
and It is going after it hard.
