John Lin(i's Mission.

D New Orleans States: John Llnds
mission to Mexico has proved worth

under circumstances that were re-
garded as very delicate. He was not
to be allowed to land, bat he did
land. He was to be sunbbed, but he
went along and was not snubbed.

a would never consent to see him,
vrt Huerta did meet him, talk to
him and treat him cordially It is
obvious that Mr.. Lind changed lot
Ut bitter feeling in Mexico, but this,
after all, was secondary, The one
big thing that his going to Mexico
achieved was that it won the moral
support of the world to the Ameri-
can position. -
President Wilson, in sending Mr.
Lind as hc did, demonstrated to the
other powers that he was willing to
% TO any honorable length to main
ain peace with Mexico. The sltua-
ion before Mr.. Lind was sent on his
mission was one Of mixed elements,
but it is one Of simple dlrectness
now. The entire responsibility has
been shifted to Huerta's shoulders
and the Mexican leader can NJ
longer befog the issue in an appea

sponsible now for whatever follows
President Wilson has scored in fix

Why Law Is in Louisiana,

Monroe NeWs-Star: Down in La
fourchc Parish last Saturday night
a drunk man was put out OF home
where a dance was being given.
After getting outside the man Sc
cured a gun, shot into the house,
and probably fatally wounded ne
gro musician who was playing fol-
The dance. The next day a warrant
was sworn out before the district
judge and on Monday a preliminary
hearing was had before Judge Ri
Were. He put the man under 500
bond to await the action Of the
grand jury.
The courts should be the first to
uphold the law of the land, espec-
tally in its relation to life and prop
crty, yet we have a judge allowing
a murderer at heart to go free on a
pitiful $lOO bond. The fact that the
man was drunk and dlsorderly, dis
turbed peaceable assembly and
shot a man who had not harmed
him seems not to have cut much
figure. Why condone such acts
Whether the man was drunk or not
does not excuse him. Above all
why should a court Of justice prac-
tically free a man who is guilty o]
such violations of the law see sucf
men given the punishment they de-
serve.
The negro's life is just as dear t6
him as that OF any one at the dance
Suppose the man had shot th'
daughter Of some leading citizen
would the bond have been 800?

Lumber Company, on Thursday had his
right leg, from the knee to the in-step,
badly scalded from one of the steam
pipes on the skidder. Mr.. Buffers was

some unknown manner a steam pipe
got caught in the right shoe. This not

the burn.
John E. Brennan, superintendent of
the National Pole Co., had his left leg
broken above the ankle on Thursday
morning. Mr.. Brennan was directing
the removal of some poles from skid

him in the leg and caused the fracture.
John was given immediate surgical at
tendance.

PEOPLE MASTERS
OF The SALOON.

Two important decisions by the SUI
preme court concerning the regulation
of the saloon have been handed down.
One, disposing of Detroit case, is to
the effect that the liquor committee
and the common council of. city can
cut down the list of saloon licenses.
Ninety-three applicants for licenses
were denied by the Detroit council in
an effort to weed out some of the dis
reputable resorts and reduce the num-
ber of saloons. Suit was instituted as
test case to compel the council to
grant these licenses. The supreme
court says in substance the council is
the sole Judge of an application for a
license. There is therefore no longer
any question as to the power of the
council to reduce at will the number of
saloons, particularly where the number
exceeds the limit provided by the War
ner-Cramton law.
The other decision affirms the clear
intention of the Wsrner-Cramton law
that when holder Of liquor license
dies it contitutes a voluntary surrender
within he'meaning of the act. The bus
mess may be continued to the end of
the fiscal year by his estate, but at
that time this saloon goes out of exist
ence. No fright to license" nor any
privilege can be conveyed to another.
The death automatically reduces the
number until it reaches the maximum
provided by law. This provision of the
law has Lot been obeyed in Saginaw,
and number of illegal licenses have
as a result existed until this year, when
the council cut down the number.
These ard other decisions of the su-
preme court established the fact that
the saloon in Michigan has practically
no rights" under the law. 1t exists
by sufferance and is completely at the
mercy of the people. Every license is
revokable, and no person can demand a
license as perogative. The cities and
towns have full power over the liquor
traffic where they care to exercise it..
And on questions of technical interpre-
tation of the law the supreme court
consistently and uniformly rules
against the saloon. 1t always inter-
prets the laws strictly and on the side
of public control of the liquor business.
The people of Michigan are masters of
the saloon where and when they choose
to be.

Fire Warden Notes.

Huckleberries The late spring
frosts have shortened the crop consid-
erably in exposed places. The picking
at L'Anse has been fair, but is now
giving way to the many pickers. The
picking at the Little Huron and Big
Huron plains is good in places. Berries
at the Burned Plains are good in the
timbered districts and sheltered places.
Last Sunday there were nearly two
hundred pickers at L'Anse Pinery.
Raspberries-The crop this season is
good in all slashings. The berries near
the forks at Mission are pretty well
picked over; letter picking is found
east of L'Anse along Brewery road,
southeast past the power plant and
south along old road towards Burned
Plains. Robert B. Reynolds and fam
lily went to Section 27-50-S3 Thursday
and picked nearly seventy quarts OF
fine berries in less than six hours on
the old burning extending from the
county farm south to Reynolds camp.
Thinbleberries "A fair crop com
mencing to ripen. Try a preserve of
equal parts of thimbleberries and rasp-
berries; this is good.
If you are going out to pick berries,
leave the sulphur matches home, they
hold fire and are dangerous to use in
the dry woods. Ask Chas. H. Ander-
son for box of Northern Forest Pro-
tective Associations safety matches.

Baraea Fails to Appear.

The Baraga baseball team failed to
appear at L'Anse last Sunday, and up
on being called up, the Baraga manage
ment explained in words which init
mated that some of the boys had sud-
denly developed bad case of cold feet
or stage fright. Be it said to the cred
it of the team that most of the boys
were willing to play at L'Anse. But
for the other few, we realize how they
felt and really believe that the only
way you could get them to play in
L'Anse would be to bring them over in
the manner illustrated.

ment of the plant and is making an ex-
