While. for the present, the maxi

of about $50 miles, the change directed

towards a universal extension OF inc

IT is my expectation and belief

experience may demonstrate the prac-

propose.
Caution Necessary.

Campbell AN ALL
MISSOURI CH0EE.

Looking through some sof the es-
, changestthis week, we were pleased to
come across the name Of Jack Camp
bell. Young man of L'Anse, who is
attending Drury College At Springfield,
Missouri. -->
Besides making good at his studies,
Moose Campbell. as he is called at
the college, is making good in football,
being thesonly man in Drury whe was
placed ons the All-Missoui valley 'col
legiate team.
This chsice of players was made by
the X ansas City Journal, and judging
by the acssants the papers have been
giving of sMr. Campbell's playing. we
do not tn nk the coach was joking when
he wired back. here and told him he
would have'the band meet him at uhe
station when he returned to school.
In the Turkey day clash, Drury beat
Shurtleff (H.) college by score OF 90
to 8. In speaking of the game a daily
paper ofSp1ngfield SAYS in part: 1.-The
most fascinating part of the play from
the SPECTATORS point of view were the
terrible runs of. Moose" Campbell,
who when started on tackle around or
tackle end play, was never stopped for
less than ten and often travelled TWEEN
ty-five yards before being hauled down
by three or four tacklers.

MICHIGAN INDIAN
GETS LITTLE CASH.

Lo, the poor Indian, is no very ex-
travagant luxury for Uncle Sam in
Michigan. The secretary of the inter-
ior has made public what the redman
has cost the government during the
past year.
The itemization for Michigan follows:
For Ottawas. Chippewas, L'Anse and
Vieux de Sert Chippewas, per capita
payments in moneys Sl7S.37; for SAL
aries of employees. SO, go. SO; for sup
port and civilization, 81, ,Ss0.6S. Total,
SIS, 729. .5S.
1t is just the same in MichigaD-as
elsewhere, the chief item of expense in
maintenance of the redman consists of
payments to the white man. The gov
ernment servant who is set up to look
after the aborigines gets the big end of
the outlay. Nearly S4,0 900 for salaries
and less than So, 600 for support and
civilization of the redman in Michigan
caused hearty laugh when the report
was submitted to congress Monday.

Eficiency~in Office.

From the Mining Gazette: o. B.
Fuller, auditor, general, is candidate
for reelection. The general rule OF
rotation in public Office ought not to
apply to the position of auditor gener-
al. Competencyscomes with length OF
experience. The state never had a
better auditor thar Mr.. Fuller. At no
: time has the office been kept in better
, condition than at the present. Mr..
Fuller has been credit to the state
and the the upper peninsula. For he
is son of Cloverland. We believe the
voters of the Republican party will
make no mistake if-tney nominate Mr..
Fuller for reelection and the state will
certainly make no mistake in keeping
him in an office he hasfiiled so efficient
. ly and so well.

structure is one story high, r76 feet long
and "a feet wide. and is located on the

and too much credit can not be given
them for their diligence.

arrangements for social house-warn-
