Loyal support for Osborn.

The progress being made by Hon.
Chase s. Osborn in his candidacy for
the governorship is source of pride
and satisfaction to supporters and ad-
mirers in the upper peninsula, and al
though the candidates for the Republic
can nomination are both able and num-
erous, it is clearly evident that Osborn
has outdistanced them all in the esti-
nation of the public.
It is a notable fact and one that is in
itself deeply significant Of the fitness
Of the man for the Office, that Mr.. Os-
born has gained ground tremendously
In the territory in which he has been
able to come in direct contact with the
people and impress them with his con-
victions, his earnestness and his force
fitness.
Mr.. Osborn stands before the people
rs man of well trained ability and
wide experience in large affairs, one
who is broad enough to represent the
state and conserve the interests of the
people. He is leader who might be
chosen anywhere as man of mark and
render distinguished public service in
any position Of trust, no matter how
exalted.
The fact remains however, that Hon.
Chase s. Osborn is an upper peninsula
man and the first from this district to
aspire to the Office Of governor. He
probably enjoys larger personal ac-
quaintance than any other man in the
whole3state. His candidacy has aroused
greater party and individual enthusiasm
than has ever before been excited by
any election campaign in the upper
peninsula.
The upper peninsula wants Chase S.
Osborn to be governor of Michigan and
it is assured that the Republicans will
stand by him to man. 1t is announced
that he is 80 well assured of the loyalty
aad devotion of his friends in the upper
peninsula, that he will spend very little
time campaigning in this territory. He
has already the support and confidence
of our people and they will stick to him
with loyal enthusiasm to the last ditch.
II is therefore wise and polite move,
on his part, that his personal campaign
and appeal to the electors will be made
below the straits, where every move
ment is valuable, and where every APP
pearance helps to win for him new
friends and supporters.
During the campaign for the Republic
can nomination Mr.. Osborn may not
again visit the upper peninsula, his cause
will not be allowed to suffer and every
friends and admirers he has made, by his
long association with the people of this
district and his able service in their be-
half, did individual part in landing in
the governors chair the best and ablest
man who has ever aspired to the office.

Dan cupid Now
Reigns Supreme

Dan Cupid, the little god of love,
reigns supreme this week. To be
sure the day is dedicated to old ST.
Valentine, who had nothing to do
with it. however. but every body who
cares anything about it knows that
the day is Cupid's.
1t is the day when valentines both
pretty and comic, flood the malls.
When the dainty miss receives a pref
ty lace and satin creation from whom
she, of course, cannot guess, and
when teacher gets a supposedly comic
picture illustrative of some personal
trait which the small boy attributes to
the said teacher
According to the dealers there is
just as much demand for the suppos-
eddy comic ones as of yore Their
purchasers are not entirely confin ID
to the traditional schoolboy. but
they afford an excellent chance for a
little knock with a touch of h1mor to
it against anyone who has some Pc
culiarity that strikes you and against
whom you may have a little grudge.
Or maybe you jus, want to do some
thing awfully funny.
The children have taken more in
terest in the day this year than ever
before and the dealers have found a
ready sale for the little heart shaped
cards with verses on them and SINH
lar small valentines whiA sell for a
penny each. Immense numbers have
been sold to the younger children

Spokane, Wash, Oct. 29.-Unprece-
dented in the history of the Pacific
Northwest is the situation brought to
light at Starbuck in Columbia county,
Wash, south, of Spokane, where the
property-owners will not be permitted
to pay taxes in 1911 on account Of the
failure Of the city council to publish
"a statement of the resources and esti-
mated expenditures Of the municipality

provides that this report must be made
before the first Monday in October.

ROOSEVELT SAYS HIS
DOCTRINE Is HARMLESS

Syracuse, N. r, Oct. 29.-The CAM
paign grew livelier as Theodore Roose-
welt travelled about central New York.
Hundreds stood in the rain to hear his
outdoor speeches and every building
in which he spoke was jammed.
The colonel dwelt particularly on
Rooseyeltism as an issue. He told the
people that some business men of the
state were afraid of it. He said that
any fear of him or of Henry L. Slim
son, republican candidate for governor,
was raised by Wall street.
Col. Roosevelt also replied to John
A. Dix, democratic candidate for gov
ernor, who said yesterday that the col
onel had misrepresented him by say
ing that he had been connected with
the wall paper combine.
Mr. Dix demanded that Col. Roose-
welt apologize to him. Col. Roosevelt
today made it clear that he had no In
tention of making an apology.

gas explosion and not by dynamite, is
the finding of the committee Of the ex.
ecutive council OF the California state
Federation Of Labor, which for fonr
weeks has been investigating.
The report is prefaced with a de.
tailed account of the committees 70.
lception by Mayor Alexander Of Los
Angeles when it called and informed
him that it desired to cooperate with
the citizens committee appointed nv
the city council to investigate. The
mayor refused to grant the request
Inc committee then determined on an
investigation of its own. After some
pariey the committee secured permis-
sion to pass the police lines and viewed
the wreckage. At this time even the
city employees had been ordered of
the property. the report says.
The report refers to articles printed
IN the Times charging union labor with
responsibility.
nasmuch as there are many per-
sons who are not acquainted with Gen.
eral Harrison Gray Otis and his news
paper" the report continues. "and
who. therefore. naturally would sup
pose that there existed evidence to
support such assertions, it would seem
important to shed some light on the
matter
Inc report then reviews General
Otis fight against unionism. saving.
among other things, that ION the sub
Ject OF Industrial freedom it is NO ex-
aggeration to say that General Otis
is insane"

At oIRTH or ISLAND

Bringing news Of the latest addition
to the pCssessions Of the United States,
the new island. Tahoma. Of the Bocco-
lof group. the revenue cutter Tahona
has reached Seattle. Omcers 81 the
cutter describe this birth OF now
island from the depths OF the sea -
the most awe-inspiring sight they ever
witnessed.
The phenomenon occurred on the
morning Of September 10. A section Of
the ocean. which is IN the shape OF =
lagoon, was noticed to be boiling I
few days before. The Tahoma re-
turned to land some Of the officers 90
that they might make observations.
Great clouds Of smoke. steam. lava,
ashes. mud and hot boulders were
shooting high into the heavens from.
the center Of the lagoon. Although
the Tahoma anchored at distance Of
more than mile and halt, It's decks
were covered with hot ashes and mud.
\ rift in the smoke caused by z sud-
den sQuall Of wind disclosed cone Of
seething, writhing lava, at the core Of
the great column OF smoke.
Two days later, when the violence
OF the eruption had spent itself. and =
party from the Tahoma were allie to
land. they found that where there had
been an open lagoon. two islands had
reared themselves. They were sharp
peaks Of molten lava rising $50 and 100
feet out OF the water.
May BE Gone by Spring
The taller peak was recognized from
its position and shape as the old Perry
island, which disappeared in an erup-
ton two years ago. The smaller peak
was named by the officers of the Ia
homa, after their ship.
1T 10 probably quarter Of q mile
In area," said one OF the officers. In
time It may be the scene Of bird and
plant life-that ID, II 1t Keeps above
water long enough. When we 60 back
we may find taht it Is not there any
more.''
The shores Of the lagoon also
changed their shape. Castle rock. the
highest point at one end. was consider
ably reduced in size by the disturbance.

ence that was more trying than earlier
reports indicated, but nightly pleased
because the cup for which they con
tested remains in America.
After resting until IL o'clock Messrs

to New York.

lives were actually in danger, but ou1

slider that we were fortunate in reach
ing Jacques Maltais' cabin in the
woods when we did,
Tells Of Flight
In describing the earlier part of the
journey up to the time they were lost
to sight over the state of Michigan
Mr. Post said:
eve followed northeasterly course
across the Mississippi and Missouri
river country and thence along the
Illinois river into Wisconsin. In the
morning we were in a position just
north of the city of Milwaukee, but
over the lake. We descended so that
our rope trailed in the water, but the
air was light and we rose again to get
the eastern drift. That carried us over
on the lake to Point Au Sable, near
Ludington. At that point the wind
|veered slightly to the north and we
passed over Traverse City. From there
we rose again and got the easterly
drift.
Cross Lake
1--WE crossed Lake Huron during the
night and were high over Georgian
bay and the country Immediately north
of it. We made our highest attitudes
at this stage of the journey. The wind
had strong drift to the northeast and
we dropped trifle lower after passing
Lake Nippissing. The wind was tax
ing us along at tremendous speed.
"We could see from the character Of
the country below us that it would be
almost impossible to move foot, sc
we decided to go on. We again went
into the higher levels and at one time
our Paragraph registered 5000 meters
which is the limit. We then saw in the
distance what we supposed was the
town of Normandy, near LaAe st. John
This was about 1870 p. m. on Wednes
day. The country looked favorable
for landing and we decided to come
down. The speed at which we were
going, however, carried us beyond tht
place which we picked out. We were
carried over small hill. Considering
the circumstances, we made good
landing on what we later learned was
to the east Of the Peribonka river.
