Two of the vessels are now In Port

Mackinac and had to be drydocked In
Cheboygan. She is now ready to be
towed down the lakes. The caravels

some time Tuesday.
John f. Rosen, Chicago attorney,

libel will be lodged against them and
they will be forced to return to Ch
cago. He says that the caravels left
that port with set OF sails belonging
to Thomas A. O'Shaughnessy, an art.
list, and Mr.. O'Shaughnessy wants 'em
back.
But w. M. Newsletter, special rep
resentative Of the fleet, said at the

up the Pacific coast. The trip. II ID
estimated, will take two years.

M. ]. MLEOD IS
BEING DOOMED
FOR GOVERNOR
Urged to Go After Republican
Nomination and Friends Be-
lieve He'll Consent
ASSURED OF STRONG
SUPPORT FROM u. p.
Sympathy With Labor Counted
On AS Big Asset in the
Copper Country

Malcolm J. Mcleod, collector of In
ternal revenue, is doing some hard
thinking these days. Appointed by
Roosevelt, and continuing, under TAFT
he is holding Office long after the ex'
piration of his term because of the
inability of the original Wilson men.
and the state machine, to agree on a
successor. And now come the friends
of Mr.. Mcleod and want him to seek
the Republican nomination for gov
ernor.
Several county chairmen through
out the state have assdfedS him that
he can have their services for the ask
ing, and q delegation from the upper
peninsula has promised him the solid
support Of that section, as a result
of the strike developments, and Mr.
McLeod's well-known attitude toward
unionism as shown when he was COM
missioner Of labor.
Mr.. Mcleod has met these advances
by saying that he is man Of mod
crate means and does not think ne
could afford the heavy financial drain
of a campaign. His friends meet that
by saying he can have all the money
he wants, and that the expenses can
be confined to purely personal ones.
When asked by The Times II he
would make the run, Mr.. Mcleod re-
fused to talk, but just the same his
intimate friends know he Is doing
some hard thinking, and are certain
he will be In the race.

sistant to Special Agent ]. II. Cole, of
the federal department Of justice. II

Commissioner Gillespie said, Satur-
DAY, that he Is not In touch with that
end Of the work.
The committees of the various
civic bodies have taken up that mat

he said.
Mr.. Schopp has received circular
letter from the Rockefeller fOunda-

Teller committee will go, Mr.. Schopp
does not know. He has furnished 1t
whatever information he could re-
garding the situation here, but It Is
not evident that the committee

CHICAGO LOSES
IN LONG CONTEST
Headquarters of Lighthouse Dis.
trict Taken Over to Milwau-
kee BY United States

CHICAGO. Sept. 13.-Chicago was
jolted today and Milwaukee exalted
when the latter city was designated
as a more fitting location than the
former, FOR the headquarters of the
twelfth lighthouse district.
The headquarters force, now To-
Gated in the federal building, will
move immediately. The order for
the transfer comes from George H.
Sweet. assistant secretary of com.
merce, to Capt. L. M. Stoddard, in
spector here.
AS a result, lake transportation
companies with headquarters In Chi.
cago have a grievance against the
government. The change was or.
dered, over protest, after Chicago
had been headquarters of the district
for 26 years. The reasons assigned
are economy and efficiency in service.

PULSORY EDUCATION
WHICH SENATOR McLAURlN
CONSIDERED ABLEST TARGUMENI
PRESENTED ON NEGATIVE SIDE.
Some time ago the Columbia State
challenged Senator John L McLau-
rim, of Marlboro county. to a contro-
versy on the question of compulsory
educatiof Senator McLaurin having
taken the negative side of the SUBJ
ject when it came up in the State
Senate. Preliminary to the present.
alton of his able argument in oppc-
sition to the iniquitous measure un-
der discussion. Senator McLaurin
paid the following distinct compG-
ment to Hon E c Epps, Senator
from Williamsburg county:
The ablest speech Tin my judg-
ment) on either side was manu-
script read by Senator Epps. of
Williamsburg. 1t is more thought

coDy of the same made, and will send
it to you with the request that you
publish it at your convenience, for it
is we'll worth preserving"
= We have failed to see Senator
Epps' argument published in the
State newspaper up to this time, but
fortunately we have been able to
obtain a manuscript copy of the
speech referred to and we are pleased
to present it for the consideration of
our readers. While the editor of The
Record is emphatically opposed to
anything that smacks of compulsory
education, yet our columns are open
to the views of any one who cares to
discuss the subject. it makes no diff
ference whether or not the views of
correspondents coincide with our
own.
Senator Epps' speech is as follows:
Mr. President and Gentlemen of the
Senate:
My observation is that many OF
our best thinkers are often uncop-
sciously influenced upon questions of
educational interest merely through
the suggestive thought of others.
rather than by the exercise of their
own mental powers; and for this
reason fear that many of the dis
tinguished advocates Of this bill are
being unintentionally deceived
through the delusion of local option
and the passive acceptance Of the
general idea that this is a harmless
measure.
Belonging to that large and less
fortunate class of uneducated men,
it is with embarrassment and with
hesitancy that l ever venture to ex-
press my personal views upon any
subject except such subjects as touch
and affect only practical questions Of
business, and had it not been for the
prolonged debate upon this bill,
these remarks would never have
been made. assure you that | have
been aroused to this through the
sting of expressed disappointment
on the part of some of my friends
who seem surprised and to some ex-
tent mortified because | oppose this
measure. | feel it now a duty to
myself and to the advocates of this
bill to make my position in the mat
ter clear and unmistakable.
Had my mind been trained along
the lines of professional thought and
stored with ideas of theory and ex-
pertinent; had it been trained to ac-
cept and absorb the opinions and
views of others as coming from
sources of authority too high to be
nuestionad and too sacred to be
