in tho old Commercial Club rooms
and attempted to perfect an organl-
zation. The progressives had an

hold meeting Tuesday night for the
purpose of organizing a progressive
Democratic club and the "old
guards, thought the time opportune
for organizing. c. a. Sanderson was
appointed chairman Of the meeting.
Buck" Lewis who is said to be one
of the progressive agitators, came
near breaking up the meeting when
he suggested that the assemblage ad-
journ and meet with the real" DEM
ocrats Tuesday night. His sugges-
tion vas oyerruled, however. 1t was
decided to appoint u committee to
draft bylaws and constitution for
permanent Democratic club but the
committee was not appointed. The

Contest of Nations at the Dairy show.

At the National Dairy Show in chi
cago this year a unique contest is to
be held between the breeders Of the
United States and the cattle experts
of England to determine which coun-
try is the best judge of dairy cattle.
This international rivalry has never
been settled. Year after year Ameri-
can and English fanciers visit tho
Guernsey and Jersey Islands. and both
return with their importations. These
animals easily win in their classes IN
each respective country but have new
cr competed internationally, so it al
ways has been question whether
Englishmen or Americans are the
best judges in the selection of prize
winners.
Recently an intimation reached
America that the English breeders
were ready to try conclusions with
their American brothers. 1t being sug-
gested that the matter be settled in

Fiscal Year of the Village of Laurium
Closes Today.

Treasurer Michael Jaerling of the
village of Laurium this morning re-
turned To the county treasurer the
tax roll for the past year, showing a
delinquent list OF approximately $4,-
200, about half of which consists of
unpaid special assessment sidewalk
taxes. When IL is considered that a
few weeks ago the delinquent list was
more than twice that amount, the
showing made by Treasurer Jearling
is very satisfactory one.

expected IL will bc issued about the
middle of next week, II is believed
the showing will be a very satisfac-

that a number of improvements have

three mile-a- minute possibility.

want to guarantee their product to

After several weeks diligent search

technical experts, Moross has finally

ABLY WILL ACT
SOON.

Further plans for the proposed mid
summer carnival at the Laurium driv-

terms for the appearance of this am
usement company in Calumet have
practically been closed but no dates
have been announced so far. The car

during the month of July.
The businessmen of Laurium are
heartily in accord with the carnival
project and will doubtless lend the
movement every support. Tho carni-

for Keweenaw county's home coming,
this year being the fiftieth anniver-
sary of the organization OF that coun-

provided for residents of Kewcenaw
