GROWTH OF SOCIETIES.
Increase Has Been Nearly 1000, 900
In Ten Years.

In 1894 the total membership of
the principal fraternal organizations
OF the United States and Canada, in
cluding many which had less than
10000 members, was about 4. .60O, 900.
Last year it was 8,278, ,738.
The increase OF about 3 ,670, 900 was
equivalent to again OF nearly 80 per
cent.
The rate OF growth in the member.
ship of fraternal organizations was
certainly more than three times as
great as the rate OF increase in the
population Of the United States. 1t
was gain well distributed. The In.
crease in the numerical strength of
some Of the great fraternal societies
was approximately as follows:
ODD Fellows.. ........ .449, 900
Free Masons :. .112, 900
Knights Of Pythias. ........ 15l 900
Modern Woodmen OF America 589, 900
Ancient Order of United
Workmen -. ......... $4,000
Knights of the Maccabees :. .209, 600
Improved Order OF Red Men .202, 900
Royal Arcanum. ...... -. .147, 900
Foresters OF America III, 900
Benevolent and PROTECTIVE
Order OF Elks ...... .176, 900
Woodmen OF the World. 1872, 900

ers -. ........... 189, 900
Ancient Order OF Hibernians SO, 900
Order OF Eagles 80. ...... :. 1855. 900
Ladies OF the Maccabees. lao, 900
Many Of these gains are greater
than the total membership OF the
organizations ten years ago.

"The baldest proposition 10 CEN

sented 10 this country" is the refer
ence made to Mr.. Bryan's govern

nent Michigan democrat. 1T
reverscs every idea for which democ'
racy has stood since it was founded.
1t presents financial problem which
would stagger everybody but pop
ulist accustomed to coming the cas-,

due to the existence OF such opinion:
as the above touching what was ex
pected to be q democratic issue o

Death of Thomas scaAdea.

Word was received Thursday of
the death 10 hospital at Denver,
Colo Of Thomas Scadden, formerly
register Of the Marquette land Office,
who resigned his position shortly
before the first OF the year, on which
date he went to Kokomo, Colo, to
assume direction of work at the
property OF the Kimberly Mines
company, now the Kimberly Wiley
company. The news OF Mr.. Scad-
den's death created no surprise, as
it had been known for the past few
weeks that he was very sick man,
an6 that the chances were against
his recovery. Death was due to
paralysis, with which the deceased
was seized about a month ago. His
wife was with him when the end
came, having accompanied him west
the first OF the year.

The senate hustled through a bill
Thursday afternoon of last week
which was surprise. That was fol
State HighwayCom Earle {
trap-rock scheme appropriatine
two hundred thousand dollars for @
new prison at Keweenaw Point, Ia
break rock and ship it to localities
anywhere in the state at fifty cents
per ton delivered, to be used under
direction Of the state highway de-
partment in road Improvement
Senator Wetmore tried TO get some
estimate of expense expected to be
incurred for the state Ia such ship
ment, but supporters of the bill had
no Information of that character.
They had the votes, however, and
passed the bill. This measure being
manifestly competitor of the
binder-twine bill which has passed
the house and is now locked up 10
the senate committee room, the
house is not expected to look favora-
bly, upon the new enterprise.

Why it is true that suspicion and
some degree of hostility has seemed
to exist on the part OF the pulic to-
wards railroads and railroad manip-
ulation and management can be in
part explained by reference to one
fact revealed through a recent ofii
cial investigation. 1t cost the Chica-
90 & Great Western railroad $28, 000
mile to build its road, yet for that
which was provided by the $2S, 900,
bonds to the amount of $l43, ,00C
we're issued. 1t is not strange that
n railroad so capitalized would find
it difficult to pay interest and its
ordinary legitimate expenses. Tha,
thes anne state Of facts apply to more
than one Michigan railroad makes il
possible for Michigan people tc
recognize some railroad condition.
which heretofore may not have beer
fully understood.

An increase of fourteen per cent
in the number OF divorces granted in
Michigan during the past year is one
feature OF growth over which there
will be no inclination to boast or
make merry. II any change for the
better, so far as the evident evils ol
the divorce habit are concerned, can
be brought about through the pro.
posed amendment to our laws on
that subject now before the legisla-
ture, its enactment should not be
delayed.

1t is really to be desired that some
sane and practical legislation in the
direction of preventing the sale ol
cigarettes to school pupils and boys
under eighteen or twenty years OF
age shall be provided by the present
Legislature. AS is true OF extreme
efforts in most other directions, leg.
islation relating to the cigarette evil
which shall attempt to do too much
will probably fail OF accomplishing
anything0 Much time has already
been wasted at Lansing in other
years discussing ineffective cigarette
legislation.
The L'Anse sentinel., 1907-05-18

A bill by Representative Dickin
son, absolutely prohibiting the man
ufacture for sale in this state oil
cigarettes and cigarette paper, ex
cept by lobbers in business with Gus
toners outside the state, mas been
favorably reported by the house
committee on state affairs; and be.
tween it and the bill OF Senate,
Kinuane, noticed some two weeks
ago, we ought to get an enactmen,
to restrain this evil which is SC
alarming in its menace to the youth
OF our state. The Kinnane bill, il
may be recolectcd, forbids the sale
of cigarettes, cigars or tobacco to
any person under lS years or tc
any minor pupil OF any school OF
college.

Some truth as well as some exag.
geration there is in the recent declar.
alton by w. T. Stead, the London
editor who Is now visitor in this
county, that "the abuse OF the liber-
ty OF the press is at this moment the
gravest danger which threatens
society and the peace Of the world .
1t cannot be denied that newspaper
sensationalism has become a con-
tributing irritant to dangers which
society and the state will not dare to
disregard. The class favor which
some notorious publications seek at
the expense Of truth and decency
and all regard for the better pur.
poses Of that which they pretend to
represent, is an influence which al
most justifies Mr.. Stead's declara-
tion. But 1t is further true that
through newspapers come the surest
element OF safety from the dangers
which the worst OF their class create.
So long as no effort is made-to sup
press or conceal whatever should be
known, dangers from sensational
sources will be limited.
