the turn of the tide towards the rails

Talbot Not Discouraged

A Il. Talbot, head consul Of the
Modern Woodmen of America, has Is.
sued a statement dealing with the rate
question, in which he says the member.
ship has every reason to be encouraged
by the society's present condition.
His statement contains a number of
points that will be of special interest
20 the membership and is as follows.
THE factionsl differences in the
Modern Woodsmen of America dur
ing the past two years have been ex-
perienced in most, If not all fraternal
societies in the country, and a semi
difference has appeared among the
f~raternalists generally throughout the
country" MIR. Talbot says. This
accounts for the light vote on our
rate question.
THE whole question of the future Of
the Modern Woodmen and other soci-
ties a only be solved by a system OF
honest and judicious bat permanent
publicity and education touching the
financial as well as the social obliga.
tions of these societies. Must find its
new life and zeal in a renewed and
vitalized local lodge spirit. Many OF
these local unitstlodges) in the Mod.
ern Woodmen, as in all other SOCIETIES,
have quietly folded their tents during
the past year, but with the coming
events in our society, and the know.
ledge to u members that the res
possibilities of determining its policies
and destiny is upon them, none need
fear but that the final outcome will
be everything that is desired in a per.
manent and stable institution.

A Cornish miner of Calumet left the
copper country two days after the
strike started and went direct TO Butte.
He had heard so much of higher
wages and good times In the great
Montana mining district that he de-
termined to make that town his home,
His wife and family went with him.
This man and his family will reside
in Calumet in the future. They got
back last week. The wife explained
that while they were In Butte they
lived in a three room apartment. in a
basement. The rent for this unsatis.
factory excuse for a home was $ii. rs
per month. While they resided in
Calumet they lived in a comfortable
company cottage OF five rooms.
The monthly rental was S., less than
half the amonnt paid for three base
ment rooms in Butte. The house
similar to the one they rented in
Calumet for - a month might have
been secured in Butte tor $40, not I'M
der that sum. This same Cornishman
explained that the price Of coal was
$is. 80 a ton In Butte and slab wood
was =. 80 a cord. P~illsbury's flour,
sold in the copper country OF Michi-
gan for a.. 20 a sack is sold for So "a
in Butte. These are a few of the
stems mentioned by this d~isillusioned
Calumet miner. He has a good many
other comparisons of a similar nature.

FERRIS ASKS ADVICE
Text OF The Letter Which the Governor
Wrote 70 the Legislators

Text OF Inc Lettef Which tne Sofofnof
Wrote 10 the Legislators
Senator Frank James gave 10 the
press the text of the letter which-he
received from the Governor Ferris aek-
ing his advice in the matter of calling
a special session Of the Legislature for
the purpose of passing Legislation
suggested by the copper country strike.
The governors letter 10 as follows:
Much desultory talk has been given
ont by the newspapers concerning the
need OF an extra session OF the Michi-
gan Legislature. Some months ago
an unofficial anvass of the members
was made relative to an extra session.
At that time a majority of the mem
bers did not favor il.
Personally, | do not feel that any
great good. so far as the present strike
is concerned, can come out of an extra
session. 1 do not wish. however, 10
influence you in forming an opinion.
From what you know of the present
needs of Michigan, and from what
yen know of the work Of the last SEES
SION, do you feel that there Is any
urgent need for an extra session.
Estate definitely and clearly. keeping
the laws Of Michigan in mind, what
enactment at an extra session could
be passed that would aid in the set
Element of the presen. strike. and
also look TO the preventing and settling
similar strikes in the future.
Considering the widely diversified
views concerning present industrial
conditions in the copper country,
might il not be difficult TO enact an
effective law looking to arbitration
and mediation Of Michigan's future
industrial disputesf
I'm the light of recent legislation,
lie an extra session is deemed neces.
sary), would IL not be better to hold
such a session early in the year OF
l0142
please be specific In your answer
to these questions. Please do me the
kindness TO offer any suggestions not
brought ont by my questions. II is
barely possible that you have already
written me concerning the a~dvisability
or non advisabiity of calling an extra
session. Will you be kind enough,
however. to answer this letter so that
| may place you on record. / have no
disposition under any circumstance TO
shirk responsibility. AS governor of
Michigan. | wish to perform faithfully
every dnty that devolves upon a gov
ernor IL is important that | receive a
prompt answer to this communion
ion.
