TAX REAL ESTATE MEN.
Land Commissioner HuntIey Russell
Favors Levyinq Annual Fee.

A license for real estate dealers is
the novel idea advanced by Land Com
missioner Huntley Russell. and he says
there is possibility of its being written
into law at this session.
why not? ?" he asks. Real estate
dealers have more opportunity for do
ing mischief to the state than almost
any kind of business men. Not that
all of them are bad, but we know that
some of them are. The bad ones can
give the state mighty bad name and
Michigan doesn't want that, for some
of its progressive citizens are just en-
tering on campaigns to build up the
state and fill its unoccupied lands.
"A fee OF one dollar a year for every
man who sells land for another would

mission office and furnish a fund with
which we could start an immigration
bureau. The other day 200 Hollanders
went by this state. stopping I'm Grand
Rapids to visit friends, and settled in
Iowa. They would have made excel
lent citizens of this state, but we did
not sieze the opportunity to invite
them here"

is CLEAN LITTLE COMEDY
"A German Prince" Gives Al n. Wilson
Opportunity to Display Talent.

"A German Prince" the new play in
which AL. II. Wilson, the German dia-
lect comedian will be seen at the Calu-
met theater next Monday night, is a
sweet, clean little comedy in which
Mr. Wilson is given ample opportunity
to display his remarkable talent as a
singer. 1t is not a one-man perform
ance in which the star affords the ma
jor portion of the entertainment.
There are twenty other people in the
cast who are not carried by the man
agement as excess baggage. They all
have something to do, and each indi-
vidual contributes his or her share in
making the performance the great
success 1t is. Mr.. Wilson holds
warm place In the hearts OF our local
theatergoers who assert that his tune
full singing and delightful acting grows
mellower and more charming with
each succeeding year. An incidental
bat important feature of the perform
ahce are the now songs introduced by
the star. For "A German Prince" Mr.
Wilson has written and composed
several new musical numbers that are
said TO be among the best in his al
ready popular repertoire of musical
gems. my Queen of Dreams" will
probably prove to be the feature num-
Der, but there are several others equal
ly as enhancing. included among
which is "Still as the Night"

Yesterdays annual election in the
village of Red Jacket was a quiet one.
Out of total of some 600 votes only
1863 were cast. Scores of voters, many
of them business men, did not take the
trouble TO vote. because of the fact
that there was no opposition TO the
regular nomination ticket. Those who
went to the polls did so in the spirit
of a compliment as much as anything.
although a few were heard to express
themselves that they had a vote and IL
was their intention to use II whether
there was opposition in force or not.
The nomination ticket elected is as

HEARING MAR. z
ON GAME LAWS
UPPER PENINSULA SHOULD BE
WELL REPRESENTED AT
THAT MEETING AT
LANSING.

Nothing whatever has yet been done
by the legislature concerning revising
the game laws except that IL seems
TO be the consensus of opinion that
the laws relating TO the protection of
deer should be left without material
change. The proposition 10 limit the
license To deer with horns or TO one
deer does rot find favor with the
down state law makers and it is re-
garded as a certainty that no such
measure will go through.
A public hearing on the question of
game law revision will be held March
22 and Rep. Ewing of Marquette be-
lieves that IL would be advisable for
the upper peninsula sportsmen To be
well represented at that hearing.
There are almost as many ideas on
this subject as there are members of
the legislature situation that may
result I'm almost any sort of a game
law bill being passed at the eleventh
hour. and II behooves the upper pen
insula men, who are most interested.
to do what they can to clarity the
situation and be on their guard that
nothing is put over" on them.
According TO Rep. Ewing there Is an
element in the legislature that is dis
posed to squeeze every cent of taxes
possible out OF the upper peninsula
and its interests, but the majority
seems to be in favor of fair play and
the upper peninsula delegation is like
ly TO precent any bill materially unfair
TO the upper peninsula becoming a

Railway Legislation.

Mr.. Ewing states that the sentiment
against two cert fare for upper PENN
sula railroads seems to have gotten
stronger within the past few days. Up
to the past week, 1t has been regard
ed as practically certain that the two
cent fare bill would pass. hut now it
is regarded as possible, that a two
and a half cent fare bill would be
accepted as compromise measure In
the opinion of the attorney general,
says Mr.. Ewing, the two cent fare bill
new before the legislature would af-
feet the Northwestern and st. Paul
lines as well as the South Shore.
Several other railway bills are like
ly TO pass. Among them are the full
crew bill and the qualification bill.
The full crew ILL provides that every
train of so many cars must carry a
certain number of men, and would
work hardship on the smaller roads
where many mixed trains are operat-
ed.
The qualification bill provides that
a brakeman must have been employed
in that capacity for a certain length of
time before he can take charge of a
train that a fireman must have been
employed so long before he can run
an engine, etc. The bill is bitterly OPP
posed by the railroad managers, who
assert that it is put forward by the
labor organizations TO further their
interests. That il would make IL pos
sible to tie up the roads completely
by strike is the managers conten-
ton. The bill has been endorsed by
state railroad commission.

FIRE IN BASEMENT.
Blaze in Orenstein Block This Morn
ing Quickly Extinguished.

An alarm of fire was turned I'm at
6:45 this morning from Box AZ in the
village of Red Jacket. The blaze was
located i'm the basement of the Oren-
stein block, corner of Fifth and Port
land streets. 1t was quickly extin
guished with little or no damage.
The fire was discovered underneath
the Wills buffet, and is believed to
have been caused by hot ashes. The
window sash. near the ash pile was on
fire. but the blaze was soon put out.
Prompt action on the part of the fire
department prevented damage.
