CLERGY WARMLY
DEFENDS OSBORN
ATTACK ON CANDIDATE uN-
FOUNDED ISLANDER OF THE
MOST CONTEMPLATE
SORT, THEY DECLARE.

The following vigorous defense OF
Chase S. Osborn which voices tho
sentiments OF the clergy of his home
city, Sault Ste. Marie, was received
by The News today:
Sauit ste. Marie. Mich. Aug. 81, 1910
The clergy OF the city OF Sault ste
Marie, Mich, as undersigned, wish
TO make most emphatic protest
against the attack that has been made
and Is being made upon the personal
character of the Hon. Chase 5. Os-
born, our fellow townsman. IL Is
charged. we understand, that Mr.. Os-
born personally and by reason of his
business and political associates is
not worthy candidate for the office
of governor OF this great state.
Realizing that this attack has been
formulated i'm an eleventh hour and
for purely political purposes, that IL Is
In the highest degree untrue and un-
Just, we feel that these circumstan-
ces will warrant our making the fol-
lowing public declaration of our
knowledge OF Mr. Osborn's personal
his standing in this community.
AS result of intimate ASSOCIATION
we are able to decalre that Mr.. Os-
born Is a man of the highest personal
character and associations, an Ameri-
can citizen of the best type who stands
for all that is best in ideals and for
sterling. upright manhood. In his
daily walk and conversation he has
been the pride of the community IN
which he lives and an inspiration tc
his fellow citizens.
Mr.. Osborn a member OF the Pres
bytorian church OF this city and is
jealous and enthusiastic i'm his as
sistance toward all matters Chrf are
calculated to advance the interests
and usefulness of his church.
Although a member of the Pres
byterian church, he has given to the
Episcopal church of this city costly
and magnificent chime of eleven bells
and has always drawn upon his
means and lent his personal aid
whenever and wherever 1t was nee
ossary to the welfare, not only of
his own church and congregation, but
of all religious enterprises in our
city. His benevolences generally and
the assistance he has constantly Civ
en- deserving people here have rem
dered his name a household word
Any attack made upon Mr.. Os-
born's character his benevolent char
acteristics, his associations, his busl-
ness reputation is, in our opinion, un-
founded SANDER of the most contemp-
tible sort, and coming at this particu-
lar time and emanating from the
source from which il does, its pur-
pose will be entirely obvious. We dc
not hesitate to say that Mr.. Os-
born's life is an open book, every
page of which can be read with pleas
ure and profit.

Ahmeek has made over 100000
pounds copper per month this year
and apparently the years output
will be about 100000 pounds. Ship
ments are around LOO tons daily,
carrying close 10 26 pounds per ton.
The mine is not running TO capacity

equipped and have ground opened

will be made until the third and
fourth heads In the mill IRE complet-

is not assured even then unless there
is bctterment in the price OF the

Ahmeek is drilling rs third hole in
No. 3 and No shafts. The former at
ESQ feet showed the lode II feet wide
with IL feet on the foot-wall exceed
ingly rich The second at 900 found
conditions almost the same, being
less than a foot narrower. The third
hole is at 1920 feet and has not reach
cd the lode yet
The decision has been reached TO
put these two shafts directly I'm the
lode and not i'm the footwall. The
change in dip from 80 10 "a degrees
will he accomplished by a curve with
400 foot radius. This curve was start
ed at $50 feet. The shafts are down
1860 feet and should reach the lode at
about 1850. Another level will be
reached about six weeks later and at
back to the lode.
