Lauriium Department
IAURIUM PEOPLE AFTER
new SANITARY SYSTEM

Laurium people are interested I'm the
campaign which is being conducted
by the council TO bring about better
sanitary conditions throughout the VIII
lage. At the last regular meeting, an
ordinance was passed which aims TO
abolish all nuisances which endanger
the public health, and To make 1t nee
essary for all residents to provide
proper sewer connections.
Village Clerk Martin Prisk will have
notices printed within the next few
DAYS to the effect that all property
owners i'm the village must abolish
such nuisances at once. Proper sani-
tary arrangements are provided by the
village and it is necessary that the res
idents should make use Of them. The
council has been considering this ac-
ton for some time. and the passing of
the ordinance will undoubtedly result
in better general health throughout the
town.
Since the ordinance has been In
force several property owners nave
either had water closets installed or
have taken steps to do so. There arc
a number of property owners in the
village. however, who have taken nc
action so far and unless they get busy
in the immediate future, it is expected
that proceedings will be taken against
| them

64,772 BIRTHS
ARE RECORDED
STATISTICS OF SECRETARY OF
STATE SHOW THAT NUMBER
OF CHILDREN WE'RE BORN
IN 1908.

That births in the state are not on
the decrease is shown by the statistics
for the year 1908 from the secretary of
states office. For the year there were
returned "a total of 64,772 births, which
corresponds to an annual birth rate OF
24.5 per 1000 estimated population.
This number is 6,173 more than was
reported for 1906, and according to
figures being compiled for 1903 that
wear will show several thousand more
than any previous years.
owing to the fact that the registra-
ton law for births did not go into Ell
feet until 1906, it is impossible to show
the natural increase, that is, the IN
crease of population by excess of births
over deaths, after eliminating the small
factor of immigration and emigration.
Beginning with 1910, however. as
the federal census has been taken, IT
will be possible to obtain this infor-
nation.
The total number of deaths in the
state for 1908 was 36,761, which cor
responds to an annual death rate OF
1919 per cent per 1000 estimated pop
ulation. For the year 1908 statistics
show that Iron county, with rate OF
2O.9 per 1000 estimated population
had the highest death rate of any
county. while Gladwin county, with a
rate of rs per 1000 estimated popuia-
ton, had the lowest death rate.
Figures are now out showing the
number of marriages for the year
1908. which was 25.765, corresponding
to an annual marriage rate of 19.5 per
900 estimated population. 1t should
, be noted. however, that large number
of these marriages were people from
other states, st. Joseph county, with
the hundreds of marriages from Chi
cago and other places, coming in for Q
good shore.

MOHAWK NEWS
WANT BETTER TELEPHONE
SERVICE FOR KtWEtNAW

Keweenaw county residents are
cIamoring for a better telephone SER
vice. For several months Mohawk
people have agitated an Improvement
but so far no steps have been taken
10 bring about betterment IN inc
service. The feeling of the residents
is shown by the following statement
bv prominent businessman Of MO-
hawk
.'For three years" he said, Il have
tried to secure telephone Installed
at nv home, and although the com
pany has given numerous promises
no action has been taken. The rev
lines that have been extended to MO-
hawk are used by many parties, max
ing privacy unattainable, and causing
parties using the phone great incon-
venience Even the phone used by the
Mohawk store is used by four par
ties and for a business man whose
time is valuable such system Is
greatly to be deplored.
"The extension Of another cable by
the telephone company would party
solve the difficulty, but Mohawk Il
large enough to have central ofhct
of it's own and if this were provided Q
number of people would Immediately
install telephones. AS it is. only few
| people in Mohawk are allowed tho
privilege of telephone, and then only
on a party line"
