tween Hat Um~Ai, the great wizard
and Chief Onaui, the mythical ruler Of
the natural resources and industry of
Idaho. Arrangements for this are now
under way.
The wards have extended a formal
and cordial invitation to Chief Ohadi
TO come here and meet Hat -UmAi, and
together inspect the wizard s domain.
Great similarity will be noticed be-
tween the names of the two mythical
dlgnitarles. Inverted, the wizard S
name spells "I Am Utah" while that
of the Idaho chief spells the name of
the state, "Idaho."

FEAR Of DYNAMITE
PLOT HAS SUBS|DED
Strikers Quiet in Michigan
Copper District; Business
Conditions Deplorable.

CALUMET. Mich, Aug. ARMED
guards tonight were withdrawn from
the Portage lake bridge, connecting
Houghton and Hancock, the fear Of
the authorities that there was a dyna-
mite plot on foot in connection with
the strike Of copper miners having sub
sided somewhat.
1t had been asserted by the officers
in charge of the strike patrol that an
attempt was on foot to sack the ex-
plosive vaults of the mining company
and a squad Nof soldiers was placed on
the bridge to scrutinize all persons who
passed.
When eight men, arrested at Red
Jacket, were arraigned today in a
Houghton Justice court, no evidence
was presented and their preliminary
hearing was set for August II. Joseph
Mihelich, from whom a capped stick Of
dynamite was taken, was held under
$4,000 bonds and the bail of the others
was fixed at one-third that amount.
None Of them furnished the security.
Commercial conditions in the strike
zone are growing worse. Some local
merchants are considering the advisa-
bility of closing their stores until noon
each day, and others have abandoned
their delivery system and reduced their
forces. The village of Laurium has a
depleted treasury.
