Captain Heinrich Berthold Knuth,
one of the best known commanders
In the transatlantic steamship service
was born in Hamburg, Dec. 2S, 1852
From early youth he has followed the
sea. For many years he served in
sailing ships, making voyages from
Hamburg TO the Far East, TO New
York and 10 San Francisco. In 1888 he
became a commander i'm the service OF
the Carr line 1887 that line was alb
sOrbed by the Hamburg American
company and he has since been in the
employ Of that company, commanding
the "Amerika" and other noted liners.
Captain Knuth in all Of his many years
on the sea has met with no serious ac-
cident on board any Of the vessels OF
which he has been an officer. For his
service in the Boxer war i'm China he
has the Crown order of Prussia OF the

THE ORATORY OF
WENDELL PHILLIPS.


The style OF Wendell Phillips ora
tory was n startling Innovation, says
Charles Edward Russell in Success
magazine. At that time and for long
afterward, the general conception of an
orator was OF a man violently swing
ing his arms and sing songing rhetori-
cal and fiowery phrases in a way that
burlesqued nature. Mr.. Phillips used
few gestures and these most modest:
he never shouted he never seemed to
be excited; he never sing songed: he
spoke to 5000 exactly as he would
speak TO one. His compelling power
lay i'm the force of his ideas. i'm his
simple, direct language, In the compact
and mighty phrases I'm which he
wrought his words He revolution
lied oratory in America. Since his time
II has never been easy for bombast TO
carry off the fustian noise that alone
had been popular among us. Some
thing most extraordinary and 20 this
day unequaled, pertained to the ar
rangement OF his sentences. They couId
not have been studied, for he never
wrote out anything he was TO say. and

Now we read that President Taft is

time ever came when the British en-
pire was menaced by an external enc
my st might count on America To help
whip the foe. Now IL seems that
this little speech OF his has stirred
up the animals in other nations. which
probably accounts for President Tafrs
interest in the affair. Getting down TO
brass tacks the Sims toast isn't any
thing TO get excited over. Sims isn't
the government Of the United States
and he doesn't control its policies, and
IL also should be considered that what
he said was uttered only out Of cour-
tesy for the English people who treat
ed the American marines royalty.
Furthermore cognizance should be
taken Of the fact that Sims spoke on
~ for himself Probably he feels the
sentiment he expressed, but every man
is entitled to his own opinion, even
though IL is indiscreet at times 70 give
utterance to 1t. Really the Sims mat
ter isn't worth all the fuss that is be-
ing made over IT, for it isn't anything
to be taken seriously.

operated az a profit 10 the taxpayers
is no argument whatever for the re-
tention OF such boards. ON the con-
trary. il is a good argument for abol-
fishing them. The money that seems
TO be a profit to the people of the state
comes out of the pockets OF the peo-
pie OF the state. whether those peo-
pie be mere taxpayers or members OF
the trade who are being needlessly and
rather heavily assessed for benefits
which they never receive. Somebody
has TO pay and nobody is receiving
any service for the paying.
The Legislators must not lose sight
of the fundamental facts that many
Of these boards are superfluous; that
the men who are plying these trades
are not being protected" and that the
people of the state are protected from
the incompetent practitioners OF en-
balming and blacksmithing and bar
bering by the natural laws of COM
petition and the survival of the fittest.
The competent embalmer or black
smith or barber doesn't require any
protection" because, If he is COM
petent he will get the trade anyway.

The production of copper this year
has exceeded the output Of 1903 by
some thirteen or fourteen million
pounds in spite Of the decrease I'm the
yield of the mines Of Michigan and
Montana. The increase has been due
TO the larger production Of Arizona
and Utah properties. The fact that
consumption Of the metal has made
big inroads in the surplus Of late and
has taken care Of the monthly outputs
is significant in these times wien
business conditions are not as lively
or prosperous as they might be The
situation cannot be construed as
otherwise than favorable TO the copper
mining industry for il means that
with a return TO normal conditions all
the copper that can be refined will
find a ready market and at prices in

Senator NJ. H. Moriarity of Crystal
Falls, goes to Lansing this time for the
dean of the legislature. He has been
going down there for five previous ses-
sions and there are indications the 31st
district will continue to send him back
TO his seat for several other terms. AS
n senator of long service he has the
record, but as the senator who had
TO be coaxed by his constituents to
come back, he will be colleague upon
whom the other toga wearers will
look with some awe.
Moriarity is an orator of mighty
words. He arises from his seat upon
occasions and causes the shades on the
incandescents up at the ceiling of the
senate chamber to tintinnabulate,
whatever that is, with many quivers,
but once he took a mean advantage
Of a brother senator, who also sought
to be known as an orator. This sensa-
tor waxed eloquent over the goddess
Of liberty, but inadvertently got the
lady mixed with the lady who deals
out justice impartially. He rang the
changes on "the blind-eyed goddess OF
liberty for fifteen minutes and then
Moriarity arose and said: 81 arise to
demand the name of the man who has
blinded the goddess Of liberty. l was
not aware before that she had been
thus cruelty treated. Let us have the
name of the bastard that the sem
ate of the great state Of Michigan may
act to properly punish him. Ipledge my
support to this action"

State Politics


Chase S. Osborn when he becomes
governor will at least have control OF
the senate committee on executive
business. This is a big advantage to
him and will in all probability permit
him To put through his appointments
as against those of Governor Warner.
John O. Ross. who will become lieu
tenant governor at the same time Os-
born assumes the seat of chief execu-
/ tive declares il its is i'm his power TO
accomplish IL there will be no fight
over the appointments. AS the best
means of avoiding this. he told Osborn
TO name the man he would like 10 see
chairman of the committee on execu-
tive business. TO which all appoint
ments will first be referred. Mr.. Os-
born did so and Mr.. Ross promised to
name not only the chairman suggested.
but the balance of the committee that
would uphold Osborn.
This takes away a large share of the
prospects of a fight over appointments
II will also give Mr.. Osborn lead in
the first lap toward appointing such
men as he desires in place of the re-
cess appointees of Governor Warner
OF course. a fight might be started on
the floor OF the senate over the adop-
ton of the committees report, but by
winning the first round Osborn will
have gained a substantial lead.
Ross will also be something more
than president OF the senate. lie pro-
poses To read a message TO the senate.
and as Ross is in full sympathy with
the insurgent ideas of Osborn il may
be expected his message will be some
torrid itself. This, coupled with the
warm message Osborn has prepared,
will start fireworks at the opening of
the Legislature and forecast some of
the warm business that will come.
Both Representatives D. G.. +. War
ner and Rep. II. T. Yeo have engaged
Lansing, from which to carry on their
contest for the speakership of the next

edly follow suit and that contest will
add the features to the opening Of the
legislative session similar to those of
the time when senatorial combats were
big events. Claims are still plentiful!
by the friends of all three candidates
and it is not probable the matter will
be definitely settled until the house
members congregate here IL was
suggested the other day that the dem
ocratic minority might obtain a grip
on the balance of power if the contest
should eliminate in such bitter feeling
as to cause one or the other candidates
TO refuse to abide by the party eau

yesterday who is not for Baker, zone
of the trio should line up AZ or 43
votes, one 3S or 80 votes and the third

with the democrats and secure the 4
seat" This, however is mere specula-
ton; no one here seriously believes
there is much prospect of any such
ending to the struggle Friends of Rep.

mise candidate Otherwise they admit
