their heat is here in abundance.
Two local power companies, the
Spencer Electric Light Company
and the Citizens Electric Com
pany, have damned the stream,
one at Smyrna, about five miles
from Belding. and the other at
Lowell, sixteen miles distant.
These concerns furnish electric
light and power to all the local
users, and have cables for it S
transmission accessible in every
section Of the city.
The Richardson Silk Company
has also constructed an immense
dam across the river on the west
ern side of the city that furnishes
adequately all the light and power
.hetessar, Tor tie conduct Of the
mills of the company as well as
he mill Of the Moss Rose Flour
Co. Both the electrical power com
panies and the Richardson mill are
discussed at length in an other see
ton of this issue.
Labor troubles in Belding are
unknown. There is constant and
ever increasing demand for skilled
labor and it is the proud boast of
our people that no one need be out
of work unless it be of his own ac-
cord. High wages prevail in every
industry and the cost of living is
comparatively low. Unlike most
industrial cities, Belding is sur

ing lands and is supplied direct
with all Of the every day neces-
sites Of life.
Rent is no higher here than it is
in other cities of similar size Beld-
ing Brothers and Company and
the Belding Land and Improve
ment Company have built num-
bers of comfortable aud well con-
structed six and eight room houses
that are sold on easy terms or
rented at very reasonable rates.
For the hundreds Of YOUNG
ladies in the silk mills, the prob
lem Of meeting the ever increasing
cost Of living has been solved in
manner that reflects unbounded
credit upon those who direct the
destinies of those great local in
dustries. Both of the mills main
tain large, completely equipped
and comfortably furnished board
ing houses for their employees.
Steam heated, with hot and cold
water, baths, electric lights, IL
braries, elegantly appointed living
and reception rooms, they afford
the mill girls a home as good as
can be found anywhere in the
country. Each of them is presided
over by matron, and rules as
stringent as those at any female
seminary are enforced in a man.

trict Attorney W. c. label, who is
believed to be the only Socialist state
attorney in the country, gave three
specific reasons for deferring the
trial Of John Schrank. who shot Col
onel Roosevelt till the December sit
sitting of the criminal court. He said,
first. that II was only reasonable TO
await the results Of the colonels in
jury. second he had no desire 20
hurry the defendant and, third. he
thought il would be unwise to call
the case before the presidential cam
paign was over. Mr. label has
sent an agent to Buffalo to get the
record of the trial of Czolgosz when
he was convicted OF the murder of
President Mckinley. He thinks II
will aid him when John Schrank,
Roosevelts assailant, is placed on
trial The two trials will differ, ow-
ing to changes in procedure as re-
quired by varying state laws and the
