Many Will Compete In lshpeming
Tournament on Feb. %.

j. $. Mailman. who was the dele
gate of the Ishpeming Ski club at the
seventh annual convention of the Ma
tional Ski association, recently held at
Chippewa Falls, Wis, has returned. He
states that the National tournament
was a grand success and that every
feature Of 1t was splendidly handled.
Practically every prominent business
man i'm the city is member of the
organization. and all of them worked
hard in the interest of the tournament.
The banquet on Sunday evening was
the most elaborate affair that has been
conducted i'm connection with the ski
meetings held up TO this time. Nearly
600 were present and some very fine
talks and musical numbers were given.
While in Chippewa Falls. Mr.. VAIL
man talked with representatives Of ev-
cry club affiliated with the National
organization, as well as with practical
sional and amateur riders He was as
sured by many of the riders that they
will attend the tournament at Ishpem-
ing on the 22nd and representatives of
several of the clubs also told him that
their organizations intended to send
some of their best men,
II am satisfied that Ishpeming will
have the best lineup of riders that
has been secured i'm many years." said
Mr.. Wahlman. Il took particular pains
to see all of the leading riders and
assured them that they will receive
the very best of treatment at Ish-
peming. Several of those who have
i'm tournaments told me
that they received better treatment I'm
lshpeming than i'm most of the other
places where tournaments are held
and that they always have good
time in the upper peninsula city.
Francis Kemp, of Red Wing, who
won first prize at Chippewa Falls, told
me that he would surely be i'm Ish-
peming and he also said that several of !
the other riders from that city are !
coming. Among them will be Hans |
who captured third prize at |
he National meet. Two other Red
Wing riders also won prizes. Kemp's
Jumps were rs and 121 feet, both

say If BauHnger goes out it. will not
against him, but because he feels he
ought not TO remain as an incum-
! brance on the aspirations of his chief.
But the democrats say the friends of
the administration do not dare bring
the report on the Ballinger investiga-
ton to a vote in the house of repre-
sentatives, because they know that If
they do, the democrats and the in
surgents combined will vote against
Ballinger. More than that, they argue
that if the case is not cleared until the
democrats come into control Of the
house, they will lose no time in bring
ing in an Impeachment Of the secre-
tary.
This, they say, is the mess out of
which the secretary will pull the Taft
administration by resigning. And
therefore they expect him to quit.
At the same time, even the biggest
political enemies Of the president can
not refrain from admiring his stead |
fast course in standing up for Balm
ger in the face of the testimony offered |
at the investigation. They concede |
that it proves the president to have a |
very superior quality Of courage, and |
they do not believe that Ballinger if he
goes out will do so at the request or
instigation Of the president.

New confidence was infused into
the business situation by the an
nouncement that Union Pacific con-
templated the expenditure OF $4,000
900 for the purpose Of double tracking
the road, remarks Henry CIews. Of
course, the company's outlay would
not stop at that point, and the COM
pletion Of that project means the ex-
penditure Of a considerably larger
sum. Such action is a practical and
emphatic display Of confidence in the
future by men Of great foresight and
ability II is not to be supposed that
such an enterprise would be taken up
at the present time unless its promot-
ers had solid reasons for confidence
in the future. The moral effect Of this
action will unquostionably be far
reaching and must have considerable
influence in checking pessimism and
creating a more cheerful and whole
some sentiment. Upon the steel in
dustry 1t will have a most stimulating
effect, especially as rivalry will force
other roads into constructive activity.

Good Catches Reported From The Me-

have been for several seasons. The

one at this time last year. and as a
consequence the fish are bearing heav-

were so scarce that the price went up
to a figure three times what it is now,
and yet enough fish could not be
caught to supply the demand. Now
the price is much lower and there are
such quantities of fish on the market
that it is hard to sell them. Frank RAJ
