Senator James Popular.

The Marquette Chronicle in discus
sing the Republican vote at the recent
primary election commentsas follows:
Not only is the vote cast in the re-
cent primary for State Senator w.
Frank James, Republican candidate
for congress, remarkable personal
tribute, but it is striking indication
of what is to be expected at the coming
election in the way of party alignment.
For instance, in Keweenaw county.
James received 5S3 votes, Macdonald,
Progressive, for Congress, two. The
three candidates were on an even foot
ing in their parties each unopposed.
True, there was more interest in the
Republican primaries than in either Of
the other parties. but the discrepancy
is so tremendous in this particular
county that only one construction can
be placed upon the returns.
What was true in Keweenaw, is true
in nearly every other county. Senator
James had no opposition. There is no
question but what hundreds of voters
did not mark cross opposite his name
merely because there was no opposition
and one solitary vote was sufficient to
nominate. In spite of this he received
the highest number of votes cast for
any man in Baraga county, was next
to the highest in Houghton. Keweenaw,
Gogebic and Iron counties, and highest
according to latest figures. in Marquette
county.
Generally, throughout the Upper
Peninsula there was big gain in the
number of Republican votes cast,
whether compared with the last general
election or the last primary. While it
| is not safe to predict anything in
politics, these figures cannot help but
argue for themselves to one conclusion
the Republican party is coming back
to it's own. And Senator James pop
|Nalarity is helping.

Get Out in the Open.

Now is the hunters time of anticipa-
tion. 1t is the time when the Office
Gagged man has Authorizations even in
business hours. He looks out of the
window and sees a herd of mountain
sheep feeding in their sky pastures.
His ear catches the far drumming of a
partridge. He knows of happy hunt
ing-ground that he could reach by train.
A railroad timetable, bearing evidence
of much use, is locked in drawer of
his desk, and with it lies copy of the
game laws.
The boss is similarly affected, 80 he
doesn't notice that anything is the mat
ter. Go home with either man and you
find that some room in the house looks
like sporting-goods store, and all
through dinner you know that your
host, is thinking of camp menu OF
grouse, trout and venison. Finally,
after all the necessary small-talk, he
discovers that you belong to the hunt.
ing fraternity. That settles it. Big.
talk, then for the rest of the evening,
and nothing else. After dinner your
host makes you examine his Reming-
ton, aim it and look through the shin
ing barrel: he proudly calls your atten-
tion to the antlers on the wall (though
you had seen them before) and tells
you the whole story; and when It has
grown late he urges you to stay over
night, apologizing for the bed he offers
you by saying he wishes 1t were bed
of balsam boughs.

POINT ABBAYE BEING
0Ill.ED RAPIDLY.

J. H. Jasberg Of Hancock, who IL
colonizing Point Abbaye for the He
bard company, has ten families now
located in T. SO. r. 80. adjacent to
Pequaming. Many tracts Of land have
been sold to Finnish settlers, many of
whom will not move in until spring.
Those who have already settled on
these lands have commenced the erec-
tion of homes. The efforts of Mr..
Jasberg, it appears. have been sue
cessful and the Point will soon be
dotted with homes.
Hebard G. Sons own one thousand
acres of cut-over land in this vicinity
and the settlement will likewise act
greatly to the corporation s benefit.
giving them a number of men who
will be always ready for employment.

PROBATE JUDGE
MUST BE ELECTED.

Attorney General Fellows has rem
dered an opinion for Governor Ferris
which has an important bearing on
three probate judgeships in the state,
those in Barags. Clinton and Benxie
counties. The attorney general holds
that the governor should call special
election to fill vacancies in those three
counties, the special elections to be to
co-incident with the coming general
election.
In the three counties named. the
probate judges, whose terms did not
expire for another year. died subse-
quent to August 25, the date Of the
primaries. The law says the governor
shall fill the vacancies until the next
general election but there was no
provision in the primary law which
permitted the filing Of the place not
voted on at the primary. Hence it
was thought that some method would
have to be devised by which the names
of the candidates could be put on the
ticket for the regular general election.
The attorney general holds that
either the governor or the county board
of supervisors has the power to call
a special election to be held on the
same day as the general election. as
well as primary at which the candi-
dates shall be chosen. Although the
power is vested in either the governor
or the board of supervisors Mr.. Fellows
suggests that the governor do the
calling inasmuch as the action of the
supervisors would have to be attended
by the expenses of securing meeting
of them in each one Of the counties.

L'Anse has ever seen, judging by the
plans arranged by the Grange and
businessmen Of L'Anse. The Baraga

in prizes this in itself promises to be
big attraction.

hands in putting up celebration that
one cannot afford to miss. About two
hundred and fifty dollars has been se-
cured for the celebration alone and the
Lake Linden band will be on hand both
days to furnish music for the Fair as
well as the celebration.
