MOUNT BAKER IN ERUPTION.
Explorers Return to BeIIingham With
Startling Report.


Startling Report.
Bellingham, July 27.-Mount Baker
is now seething volcano, and three
craters are belching forth vapors and
sulphurous fumes, according to five
members of an exploring party which
left this city Tuesday to ascend the
mountain and who. returned Satur-
day.
The main crater is now at least 40
feet in diameter and the intense heat
caused by the interior fires has melted
the snow from around it's mouth, caus-
ing numerous landslides. The small
err craters, which are estimated to be
about 800 feet from the main one, are
more active and increasing in size.

England of its claim to leadership in
the long distance running branch Of
athletics.
It will not snatch any laurels from
the brow Of Hayes, who won q good
race, to say that the hero OF the day
was the Italian, Dorando. The armira-
ton and sympathy OF every person in
the stadium went out to the gallant
Italian. who, although he did not win,
deserved to win, and did more within
the limit Of his powers than any other
man who ran.
Dorando's Entrance Impressive.
The crisis in battle on which the
life OF nation hung could hardly have
been more impressive than Dorand0's
entrance into the stadium. Ten min
utes before the megaphone announced
"the runners are In sigh" guns had
proclaimed the arrival Of the leaders
at the nearest station Of the course;
an intense silence overhung the stadi-

breathlessly the approach OF the first

In . recent editorial, which appeared
in the columns Of the Marquette MIN
ing Journal, ye editor takes space to
tell Of the wonderful advantages de-
rived through the use of voting msr-
chine and in which he says:
'In Escanaba. where voting machines
we're used in the election Tuesday, the
returns for the entire city were report
ed and tabulated by $50 O'Clock. We
had different tale to tell in Marquette
1t was two or three hours before the
vote on the head of the tieket-could
be even approximated, and it was stiR
later before It was known definitely
how the candidates for governor had
run. Returns on other Offices lagxed
later than that hour. and It was the
wee sma, hours of the morning before
complete returns on the city could BE-
obtained. The election board IN one

After the Battle.

Now that the battle of ballots is over,
and which from all appearances was r
clean-cut and decisive victory for the
Republicans, it is with degree of con-
siderable pleasure that we take this
opportunity to congra tulate the success :
full candidates. The strife preceding
election day was one of the most sys-
tematic and carefully planned ever con-
Quoted and the manner with which ev-
cry candidate carried out his campaign
showed that he had first made up his
mind what to do and then did it with
determination.
Throughout, with but one or two eK-
ceptions. very little time was wasted in
boisterous hilarity, every effort being
made to count, and was for the most
part done through individual soifcita-
ton and the use of neat and tasty per-.
sonal cards.
To US this appeared to be more
sensible and human way of approaching
the friend and voter, and lent more
digniied feeling toward the Office
sought than the system practiced IN
other parts of the country.
Those who are to preside in the vari-
GUS positions of the county, with but
one or two exceptions, are the same
persons who were in Office during the
preceding term. and that the people in
general are satisfied with them and
their work was exemplified on Tues
day. The new ones to take hold
are already well known to US all and
we feel safe in the fact that they are
men of character and quality and will
fill the positions to which they have
elected with greatest of care and res
pect for the people.

Byers Carries the, Day.

James J. Byers, formerly resident
of Baraga county, but recently Of
Houghton county, who was the Demo
cratic candidate for the Office Of sheriff.
has the distinction of winning outin the
recent election by a majority conceded
to be about 2,690, despite the fact many
things were brought to bear upon him
to defeat him.
One of the most remarkable fea atures
of the election was this one fact. the
balance of the Republican ticket being
elected and he the only one on tho
democratic ticket.
That Mr.. Byers is an exceptionally
popular man and favorite was plainly
manifested at this time. 1t is stated
that It was great surprise to many
that he should receive such support after
the severe political ransacking which he:
, received.

To those who were in close touch with
