NO FREE RIDES
Railroads are Refusing TO Haul Laborers
Free.

Railroads are Refusing 70 Haul Laborers
Free
The railroads are selling more
colonial tickets 10 Western points this
winter than they did last The de-
mand for the low rate tickets is very
heavy. One explanation of this fact is
that the roads are not shipping men
West on free basis the way they were
doing year ago. Then they needed
numerous crews for construction work
in the Pacific Northwest. but at pre-
sent they are depending more upon the
local markets to supply them with
laborers
Just as many men are needed in
Washington and Oregon this year as
was the case in 1906. but the demand
for laborers in Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Michigan and Dakotas is so heavy that
the roads deem it advisable 10 keep all
the men they can in the Middle West,
and offer them no inducements TO go
W viz A"A NNoe ANS 10 al uHubuhl
state of affairs. for ordinarily the roads
are doing everything in their power to
get the laboring men started westward.
When free fares were offered. scores
of men took advantage of them who
had no intention OF going to work
after their arrival in the west. They
merely wanted TO get 10 the coast
country in the cheapest manner pos
sible. The railroads needed laborers
80 badly that they were willing 10 take
long chances in their remaining at
work after they arrived at their des-
tinations. This winter those who
want 10 go West have to pay their way
and consequently the sale of colonist
tickets is greatly Increased.
A large number Of the special tickets
are being sold. All Of toe trains are
crowded with those seeking new homes
in the West There has been some
talk 10 the effect that il the 2-cent fare
bill passed in the Western states these
colonist rates would be Withdrawn,
but no steps in this direction have as
yet been taken

MAYORALITY RACE
TAKES A TURN
SENATOR MoRIARTY CANNOT TAKE
THE OFFICE.
r. 3. WEBB IS SUGGESTED
Mr. Webb Consents to be Candidate and
viii Probably Have no Opposition
for the Office.

The mayorality question took yery
important turn during the week.
Senator Moriarty, who II was general.
ly supposed would succeed himself ri
mayor advises that some other business
man and. property owner be selected
for the reason that he will be absent
from the city very much Of the coming
year This will especially be the case
at the time Of the equalization OF
taxes. A letter received from Mr..
Moriarty during the week is so pat
upon the matter at hand that. although
it is personal communication, we
publish il here.
Lansing, March Is, 1907.
Mr.. Thomas Conlin,
Crystal Falls, Micn.
Dear Tom
understand that my name has been
mentioned as a candidate for Mayor
for a second term.
do not believe it would be good
policy to nominate me as IL will be
impossible for me TO leave 10 attend
the Board of Review 10 egualize the
taxes in May. The session of the
Legislature will probably last until the
first of June and the Board of Review
will meet just at time when my
presence is needed here.
| think you ought to select some
business man who pays taxes and elect
him Mayor and | would suggest the
name Of II. b. Webb as man must be
depended upon to carry out and COM
plete the sewer contract and meet any
other contingency that might arise.
thank the people of Crystal Falls
for their kind intention but for these
reasons cannot accept the nomination.
If made. With kind regards. am.
Very truly yours.

upon Mr.. Webb and found that he is

that clear head is needed to engineer

A great deal has been said in youI

department stores send ont an inferior
quality Of goods and ask as much for
them as home dealers ask for better
quality. But Is this assertion made

dealers who have felt sure of inhuenc-
ing them TO buy Of them have asked in
some instances. at least % per cent
more for identically the same goods
offered by the mail order houses and

per cent more for certain classes of
goods. The purchases from home deal
ers and the department stores have been
compared, and proved 10 be alike.
Now, il the home dealer can offord to

money on the deal9 II he SHOWS no
Willingness 10 do the fair thing by us

that asked by the large city stores for
the article we want, what else eau we
understand than this; he wants us to
buy his goods, and pay him more for
them than we can get them for else

dealer not because he puts his price
down TO reasonable profit. Has he
any right to expect MS to favor him in
this matter unless he shows a disposi-
tion 10 return the favorY We do not

So do we. would not have II under

Steel King and His Chorus Girl
Bride-Plnes for the Wife OF His
BOyhoOd-Expected Brilliant Social
Life Myth-SOclety Refused to
Accept Him.

Pittsburg, Dec 26.-Has the gilded
cage become tiresome and do the
silken bonds OF matrimony fret and
irritate millionaire William e. Corey
and his chorus girl wife, Maybelle Gill
man Corey?
Does Corey long for the simple wife
OF his boyhood that he put away for
his song bird mate?
Pittsburg friends say that this Is
the status quo In the Corey home to-
day. Both are tired and dislllusloned,
they say, and both long for separa-
ton.
Yesterday. 1t is said, Corey took
Xmas dinner with his parents at the
Lancaster county homestead and
and there he met his first wife and
son. A reconciliation is hoped for by
Corey's mother, 1t Is stated.
Corey longed for a brilliant social
life and expected the flashing beauty
of his new wife would bring this to
him, but the social world has failed
to accept either and their magnificent
home is deserted.
Now, say Pittsburg friends, there
Is no friction between the two, but
a lack of vital interest. 1t is thought
that the present Mrs. Corey would
not fight a legal separation.
