WATERING PLACES VALUABLE
The Artificial Lake Would Give Us
Fine Opportunities TO Enjoy
Resort Privileges.

Resort PrlVllegeS
Watering placesY Our very name
Michigan" means water or lake country;
but we are so saturated with water bles-
sings, particularly IN the heated seasons,
that we quite fail to appreciate, espe-
cially in comprehensive manner.
How many from the large centers of
city life-rich and poor-pant for what
lies at our very doors in July and Au-
gust, and how many have and do con-
to rest and recuperateY Around our
Michigan lake Cora seems to draw a
goodly patronage. Last week Matt
Pinkerton of Chicago, Mayor Dunno of
Chicago and Milwaukee's mayor, as well
as other celebrities, cooled, chatted and
tished for several days. Now, if that
lake we are talking about here in Paw
Paw were thoroughly and properly
damned, nicely cottaged and amply
hoteled, how we might shine.
After all, fashions and destiny are the
two great compounds of our American
life. Talk as we NAV, these two are ever
beside US, and we, docile creatures, ever
follow their beck. You see it is ever
growing TO be the fashion in the heated
weather to seek the watering places; and
has not destiny given us Michiganders
tremendous preference However, we
can meantime dream and drill for it,

ment against the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company and the Standard Oil
Company. Arguments for the prose-
cutions will be completed this week in
New York, at conference between
Alexander Simpson, Jr., of this city.
and Charles e. Hughes. The chief
question under consideration is the ad-
visibility of individual prosecutions
against A. j. Cassatt, president of the
PENNSYLVANIA railway. This was plain
ly indicated today by a lawyer who
has been intimately associated with the
interstate committee commission hear
ings. BY both the commissioners and
the special counsel appointed by the
attorney general to follow the testi-
mony and prepare for prosecution, 1t is
believed more good will be accom-
plished by centering the prosecution
upon Cassatt than by scattering energy
over the prosecutions of the presidents
of all the railroads concerned, most
of which are directly or indirectly
controlled by the Pennsylvania. The
charge to be made by the government
will be conspiracy, and If the charge
is proved will carry penalty of inn
