OSCeOIa.

The storm during the past week
has been a great benefit to this part
of the county, and we are now as
stirred of water for next summer.
The Pilot Knob Gold Mining Co.
will shortly commence the season S
work. This company did consider
able work last year, and we look
for much larger operations this
year.
Another big mining deal is likely
to be completed within the present
month which includes FIVE of the
best claims in the camp, and will
put considerable amount of money
into the pockets of some of our
community.
The coming season now promises
to be one of the brightest in a Num-
Der of years. The merit of Osceola
has long been known, and capital
is at last turning its attention to one
of the greatest gold-producing
camps iii the state.

Infant Child Dies.

The eighteen months-old child
of Mr.. and Mrs. j. r. Moorhead,
who we announced in our last
issue was dangerously ill with
scarlet fever, died last Friday
night and was buried Sunday.
A party in town was just re-
covering from the fever sufficient
to promenade on the street when
the child took down. 1t is com
monty believed that the germs of
the dreaded disease were COM
municated from this party to the
infant, as result of the careless
ness and foolhardiness with which
some people shake off their scales
on the public streets and in bust
ness houses, and others neglect
to keep their door closed to per
sons who have been exposed.
When persons so fail to care
for their own safety and that of
the public, to observe some sort
of quarantine restrictions, it is
time the officers of the law
stepped in and compelled them.

Attorney Chandler Locates in Ely

Attorney Chas. S. Chandler
and wife arrived in Ely last
Thursday from San Francisco.
They have taken up their resi-
dence in the Randall house on
High street and will make Ely
there future home.
Mr.. Chandler must feel salts
fed that the lively times once
seen in White Pine are to be re-
vived, or he would not have left
a lucrative practice in San Fran
cisco to locate in a mining town.
That Ely will soon be a railroad
town and the seat of immense

600. There are $50 members in the two
houses and some of the economists have

IT was never in ACCORDANCE with Re
publican precedence or Republican pol
icies that party control of any city or any
section Of the state should be sought
through state legislation. II is due to
the people of the city Of Detroit and to
other cities of the state as well that they
shall be permitted to solve their own
municipal problems, and mistake was
Internationally made when that cardinal
Republican principle was even tempo
rarily departed from in Michigan. De-
troit frequently absorbs much of the time
of the legislature in settling her local
affairs, but home rule is the only proper
government over local matters.
