From the State Capital
Information and Gossip Furnished by Special
Correspondent at Lansing.

Lansing.-In order TO divert a
needed proportion of the desirable
class of immigrants to Michigan, in
stead of allowing them to flock to the
already overcrowded cities of the east.
the federal immigration bureau will
establish a new Office in Detroit. The
national representative will work in
connection with the free state employ
ment offices, care being take. TO ship
the new corners to the portion of the
state where they are needed and to
prevent their flocking to cities which
now have an abundance of labor. The
matter was arranged by State Labor
Commissioner Malcolm Mcleod, and
IL is expected that the man who will
represent the government will arrive
within ten days. The arrangement
was made through Terence V. Powder
ly, commissioner of information in the
federal immigration bureau. Mr..
Powderly's Office was created by the
last congress for the purpose of
spreading the thousands of immi-
grants who reach these shores through
the variouss states where they are
needed. Mr.. Powderly has since been
investigating conditions in the middle
west and is about to arrange for the
establishment of number of
branches in the large cities of the
country. Mr.. Mcleod met Mr.. Pow
derly at the convention of labor Stats
ticians In jamestown and promptly
offered to cooperate with the govern
ment in securing a desirable class OF
labor for Michigan, There are now
three state Offices. Grand Rapids and
Saginaw having Offices, besides the
one here, and a new one is to be
opened in Kalamazoo within a few
weeks, the legislature having provided
the funds for its maintenance. There
are immigrants that we don't want
and there are those that we do" said
Mr.. Mcleod. I'VE do not desire to
see the state overrun with the hordes
OF southern Europe, but there are
large numbers of Scandinavians COM
ing lin every year, to say nothing of
Germans and people from the British
isles, and We want all these people
that we can get, so long as there is
place for them. Within the past
few years the farms and the small
towns have been denuded of working
people because of the influx to the
large cities. and there are many places
where laborers are needed. The idea
is to take up the question with
the state grange and other organiza-
tions and ascertain just where people
are needed. In this way the labor
market will not be glutted and no
one will be forced out of place. The
state labor bureaus have accomplished
a great deal in aiding both employers
and working people, and in this way
a great deal more can be DONE"

In one OF the Atlanta Sunday schools

do with Mammon and the corrupting
influences of great riches.
Toward the close Of the exercises,
says Harper's Magazine. the superin-
tendent called upon the infant class
to repeat the golden text, which had
special reference to mans inability to
serve his Creator and the money goo
at one and the same time. The class
failed to respond as 1t should, when
the superintendent, noticing his own
young hopeful in the ranks, who had
that very morning been drilled thor
oughly on the text, called to him. The
response was immediate, though n
slight departure from the original. for
in a voice that was distinctly heard In
all parts OF the room there came the
following notification:

Michigan counties, knowing they have
the goods to show, have made appro-

pervisors, TO prepare and keep on view
through the fair exhibits OF the pro-
ducts Of their sections, satisfied that
they can show farmers that there is
plenty of good and cheap land In
