Scale Of WAGES Fair.

A prominent copper country logging
contractor is reported as stating that
the past season had been one Of the
best in many years from timber max.
er's point Of view.
Under this gentleman's supervision;
over eight million feet Of logs were
RATED from the Frank Bushell camp
to the Charles Hebard & Sons, Inc,
mill.
The last raft which was piloted down
by the tug Hebard this week to the
Hebard mills, contained over q million
feet and some Of the RATS went as high
as two million feet. The work at the
Bushell camp il practically completed.
In addition to the eight million feet
Of pine and spruce cut for the Hebard
mill. the Bushell camp got out three
big boat loads Of ties for Chicago, a
cargo Of cedar ties and telegraph poles
for L'Anse. and . fourth big cargo of
mixed ties which will leave this week
for the windy city.
A number Of Baraga county contract
ors are getting things into shape to be-
gin operations, and II is expected that
the approaching winter will be Of the
old time kind. Full crews, plenty Of
work and contentment in al the camps.

Not Frost, But Bliaht.

In the early part of the season the
outlook for such fruits as apples, peaches
and pears and the like was never
better. During June month these par
ticular fruit bearing trees began to
assume an appearance of having been
touched by frost. Examination however
has disclosed the fact that it is form
of blight and is doing untold damage.
Even the pine, spruce, maple and
hemlock trees are suffering from the
pest. Many are doing their utmost to
stop its progress. We would be pleased
to have the succussful ones tell us their
remedy and thus through publication
and their neighbor who is suffering loss
from the same cause.

GAME wARDENs MAY INVADE.
BaraSa County One Of the objective
Points In Schedule Of Visits.

Judging from the article taken from
a copper country paper which follows,
Baraga county and particularly L'Anse
and Baraga are the objective points in
this county which the state game ward
ems will visit during their trip in the up
per peninsula.
s''', it is believed that Mr..
Pesrce intends to do some quiet scout
ing about this district in search of vio-
lators of the game and fish laws.
From reliable informants it is learned
that Mr.. Pearce has been working over
about Isle Royale; down around Barags
and L'Anse and elsewhere through
this district. That several prosecutions
of alleged violators of the law will re-
suit is very probable.
1t is understood that Mr.. Pearce will
have a couple Of game law violation
cases at L'Anse on his return from up
the lake, one, it is said, for the killing
of deer out Of season and one for the
catching and selling Of undersized fish.
The laws covering both these viola
tions are very strict and severe punish
ment for the alleged offenders, II
found guilty, is not unlikely. It would
be hard to tell just when Mr.. Pearce
will get around in this neck Of the
woods or what he intends to do up here
but more will likely be known within Q
very few days"

Grand Chancellor Carlton Makes Pro-
vision For Repairs on Birth
place ofTamous Order.

Grand Chancellor Samuel G. Carlton
of the State Grand Lodge for the Knights
of Pythias has concluded his extensive
inspection of the Old School House at
Eagle River where the original draft of
the order was drawn up. The Grand
Chancellor together with prominent
Pythians Of the copper country visited
the school house Tuesday.
Mr.. Carlton stated that he found the
building in fairly good state Of repairs.
1t has shown the effect Of wear during
the last few years.and the repairs which
will be necessary will not be of an ex-
tensive nature. A few wooden pillars
will be placed beneath the structure re-
placing those which have given way to
decay or other destructive influences.
New clapboards and shingles will be
placed upon the exterior and the whole
will be painted and protected SO far as
possible from the influence Of the
weather. In making these repairs, Mr..
Carlton will expend as much money as
necessary from the sum appropriated
by the Grand Lodge Of the state for
this purpose. When talking Of the
matter recently he stated that he
believed is would be possible to have al
Of the repairs completed in from three
weeks to . months time.
Relic hunters have been working
upon the structure already and many
pieces of the original structure in
cluding the blackboards on the interior
have been removed.

Just fifteen days more and then you
will be required by law to hang up the
fish pole and basket for another year.
There is q general lamentation on the
part Of the majority Of sportsmen,
from the fact that the present season
has been anything but good one for
this class Of sport. Flies have been
fierce and it has been anything but q
pleasure to seek recreation in the for
ests, and now that the season has
about arrived when people can 60 into
the camps and enjoy life and the pleas
ures offered the law says you must
not fish. 1t seems triHe unreason-
able.

Wednesday evening party Of twelve
young folks made . pleasure run to
Pequaming. The party started to re-
turn shortly before the heavy storm
which visited this vicinity on that even
ing. When the boat was about five
minutes out from the dock the bow ran
into boom-stick and splintered stem
board. The jar was quite heavy and q
number Of those aboard thought that
the craft was headed for the bottom Of
the lake, and one member suffered Sc
verely from the fright.
The boat was returned to the dock
and the party remained in Pequamine
until toward morning when 1t was
found that it was perfectly safe to re-
turn by boat.

sLAUcHrxR OF DEER.
Exceptionally Large Last Season Ac-
cordins to Report Made Re-
Gently BY state Game
warden.

Despite the fact that many state
ments to the contrary have been made
recently, over 5000 deer were killed
in the upper peninsula during the sea
son Of 1907. This is the statement
made by local deputy state game
warden after receiving the rather sur
prising figures from the state depart
ment.
II recently learned from State Game
Warden Pierce that last year over
1000 deer were shipped through the
straits" said the warden. MANY
people in the upper peninsula were Of
the opinion that less than that number
Of deer were killed in the woods Of
northern Michigan during the past sea-
son.
''As far as Game Warden Pierce can
estimate, 1000 deer were shipped out
of the state, via Iron Mountain, Me-
nominee and other points and the num-
Der of deer that were taken out illeg-
ally is not known of course. Added to
this number Of deer shot in the closed
season-prosecutions resulting in many
cases the total killing is easily over
5000. There are not many thousands
Of deer roaming the wilds of the PEN
insula at the present time and in q few
years at this rate they will be rs ex-
tinct AZ the buffalo,"
Deputy Game Warden Wilson pre-
diets that this fall will prove one Of
the greatest deer season in years Con-
ditions last winter were favorable to
the little feet-footed animals. the snow
being so light as to make it easy for
them to escape the wolves, their dead
liest foes. Very few instances of any
great kills by wolves were reported.
The conditions at the breeding season
were auspicious, and the plentitude Of
rich, succulent forage this summer
helped the deer. Everywhere signs Of
them are to be found, and in some Of
the more isolated regions homesteaders
are reporting great loss in crops due to
their ravages.

Must Extinsuish Camp Fire.

1--WE have suffered some heavy losses
on our northern reserves through fires, I"
said Charles w. Garfield, president Of
the Michigan forest commission, s'and
we intend to post where everyone may
read, placards showing the penalties
for careless and viciousness on the
state lands. The placard which we
shall use is printed upon linen cloth,
that it may be more or less impervious
to weather and to vandalism. This re-
counts the damage and the menace
through building fires not alone to val
able growing timber, but to the soil
and the natural beauty of the land.
I'm many instances the forest fires
are caused by carelessness upon the
part Of those entering the reserves, but
! have good reason to believe many OF
them are caused by pure viciousnesa
and probably upon the part of those
who ignorantly oppose all schemes for
the reforestation Of the waste lands
which we are lendeavoring to make Of
value In most instances our rangers
have been able to nip these fires in
their inception, but whether they have
done 90, the damage has already
been such that we have decided to take
drastic measures to eliminate this men
ace.

". "A. May, OF ChlcagO ana son Il. A.
May, of Houghton, were in L'Anse the
fore part Of the week on their annual
fishing expedition.
Farmers in this vicinity have about
completed the harvesting Of their hay
crops. They report an excellent yield
this year. The heavy rains Of the past
few days somewhat hampered them but
on the whole the season has been q
very encouraging one.
Firemen are somewhat disappointed
over the ruling Of the state railway
commission that they will have to
pay the fare charged to the general
public for transportation to Marquette
upon the occasion of the tournament
there next week. In past years q spe-
cial low rate has always been granted
the firemen.
Some sidewalk repairs are still badly
needed. It wouldn't be bad idea fol
the sidewalk committee to take TRIP
over the str eets occasionally. There are
places on some of the main thorofarea
that have been there for some time.
The question at hand is, ls their nc
time, inclination or material to repair
them?
/. Levitt and son George and daughter
Rae, who have been spending the past
two weeks at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
d. Levitan, left Thursday for theii
home in Phillips, Wis. They were &C.
companied upon their return by Misl
Ross. Levitan and Miss Alma Smith,
who will remain in Phillips for about
t hree weeks.
A considerable amount of vandalism
is being praeticed by q number Of
youngsters Of the village during the
past few weeks. Several gardens
and orchards have been badly multilated
A closer guard should be kept over
those youngsters or some day they may
turn up at their homes with dose oi
something which will not set well upon

suffered are putting forth special effort,
to locate the of enders.
