Liquor Dealers Arrested.

Two residents of Metropolitan. Dick
insUn county. visited Prosecuting At
torney Watson's Office last Tuesday and
demanded that four of the Amasa
saloon keepers be arrested for violation
of the liquor laws.
Mr.. Watson told them that his duty
as public prosecutor made it necessary
for him to prosecute any complaint
made in good faith to him and asked
the fellows IL they were acting in good
faith and IL they intended to appear
against the saloon men when they
should appear In court. They told
him they would do so and he accord
ingiy sent them to Justice Morrison
who issued the warrant and the saloon
men were brought into court Thursday.
Notice was sent the witnesses but they
failed to appear. After waiting some
time for them Mr. Watson told the
court that his witnesses had failed to
appear and that 10 him the affair
looked like persecution instead OF a
prosecution. The court thought the
matter over and after waiting a fair
length OF time discharged the saloon
men and they returned home.

AFFECTED BY DECISION
Syrup Labels Must State Mixtures in the
Syrup and Percentage.

A decision, affecting the grocers OF
the entire state, regarding the manu-
facture and sale OF maple syrup has
been handed down in the supreme
court. Hereafter all cans containing
maple syrup and other syrnps must not
only be labeled as compounds, but the
labels must declare the percentage Of
each syrup in the mixture. Any can
OF sryup labelled otherwise will-be sold
IN violation OF the law and the mer-
chants will be subject 70 the law
penalty.
The decision grew ont Of the case Of
the state dairy and food commission
against the Pierre viaus Maple com
pany. The inspectors OF the department
condemned certain maple syrup
labelled Pure Canadian maple syrup
and cane syrup An analysis showed
that..can syrup predominated. and the
inspectors insisted that the percentages
be- placed on the label. 10 that the con-
sumer would know exactly what he
was getting The company procured an
injunction restraining the commissioners
from making this requirement. = To its
bin Of complaint the commission filed
demurrer which was -overruled by
the court below, but which the SUI
preme court says should be sustained.
The supreme court holds that not
only must the syrup be labeled as
mixtures about that the percentages.of
the ingredients must be given. Labels
stating the mixtures Of syrups are used
by practically every company, but nm.
due prominence is given to the maple
syrup" Analysis show that the per
centage of genuine maple syrup In the
so-called maple syrups" is seldom
more than 20 per cent, is often onl,
five per cent, and is frequently less

BARACA WINS OUT
J. o. Masy OF L'Anse For Representative on
the Eighty-Second Ballot.

The Representative convention which
was held at l. Anse last Monday proved
TO be very lively affair and caused
considerable i'll feeling because OF the

Byer. A. Rogers and r, Munns, and

break excepting that Iron threw Its
vote to Keweensw and vice versa.
After nearly thirty ballots had been
taken Roger Williams Withdrew HE
name and the Baraga men Immediately
substituted new one in j o. Maxy,
prominent realestate man Of L'Anse.
The balloting was resumed and lasted
until nearly eleven o'clock when the
eightieth ballot was taken without any
change.
The Baraga, Iron and Keweensw
men finally got together on draw
cuts proposition. Four tickets were
placed in a hat. one of which was
written choice. the others being blank.
IL was agreed that the counties should
draw in alphabetical order from the
hat and Baraga was the first to draw
and out came the marked ticket anc
the thing was settled.
When the delegates filed into the room
again, Captain Wilcox Of the Ontona
gon delegation moved that the choic'
of the other three counties be mad
unanimous and Mr. Maxy was chosel
without opposition and the delegate
parted with the best OF feeling.
The Iron county delegates manages
to catch the midnight train TO Cham
