Road commissioners:salary

The question of salary for the county
road commissioners has been bothering
the Houghton county commission this
week In Iron county the question of
adequate compensation for the COM
missioners has been up several times
and has caused considerable talk,
many of the statements made being
false.
No compensation mas been voted
Iron county commissioners since a
year ago last winter when the 81, 400
received in reward on state roads was
divided between the commissioners
in lieu of their compensation and ex-
penses
AT the last meeting of the county
board the question of some compensa-
tion for the county. commissioners
anne mp and the supervisors were u
unanimous in their belief that the COM
missioners should oe paid something
Mr. Jobe was present and notified the
hoard that, because of his being min
ing inspector and drawing one salary
form the county he thought he did not
expect, nor would he accept any COM
pensatiou for his services on the road
commission
That left Mr.. Holmes and Mr.. Wall
and the board thought $500 between
them about right under the oircum-
stances. Mr.. Wall. at the last meeting
Of the commission, gave a detailed
report Of his mileage made exclusively
on county road business and il totaled
TO over 800 miles, some by train,
some by team but most of IL by
automobile.
The county commissioners in this
ccnnty get no salary. The county
board may. If they see at, grant the
commissioners some compensation,
but IL 10 not compulsory. Houghton
has the same arrangement, as has sew
eral other upper peninsula counties.

places that are Boosting of paying no
money under the pension act the pay
ments are made out Of the poor fund
and are hid in that fund but they are
just as mu oh mothers pensions as the
ones granted in this county for if the
poor officials granted these women
enough to live on would certainly not
allow them anything out of the county
funds.

working north along the coast of Nor
way until we arrived at the port of the
supply ship for the coal company.
This ships makes four trips per year
and we knew just when it would be in
port and made our plan accordingly.
tine harbor at Spitzbergen is open
but six weeks in the year. II is the
port farthest north of any in the
world. The reason for open water In
this port is that the waters of the
gulf stream, washing up the coast of
Europe, are confined somewhat and
warm the waters in that vicinity
sufficiently to cause open water there
for the short time mentioned.
Part of my vacation l spent hunt
ing polar bear and il was very in
teresting sport. While was there the
sun never went below the horizon.
The coal company must ship its en-
tire product in the six weeks Of open
water so there is much hustle about
the mines during shipping season.
All the coal shipped now is consumed
in the scandinavian peninsula. IL
was the intention of the company
when the coal deposit was opened up
to ship to the English and other
markets but they have found the
scandinavian markets sufficient to alb
sorb all they can get out so far. 1t
is probable that after the company
gets to producing more coal the pro-
duct will be sent further south or 50
much of 1t as cannot be marketed
furher north.
The mining company is compelled
TO get in sufficient supplies in the oper
season TO last through the winter. The
mines are worked winter and sum.

Asked about the ownership of the

land does belong. A commission has
been appointed which will. the com
ing summer, study the question, as
well as make further exploration of
the island, and decide to what country
the island belongs.
Mr., Longyear made the surprising
statement that when he was on The
island be was within 700 miles of the
North Pole. The coal company mas Ill
ed report of all of it's doings with
the state department at Washington

ownership of the island the coal

The Plaid Mackinaw"

The Plaid Mackinaw, musical
comedy written, staged and acted by
Michigan College of Mines students,
will show In Crystal Falls April 80.
There is little doubt that the Plaid
Mackinaw will eclipse anything before
attempted by the college men. The
best talent among the Mining College
students spd alumni has been at
work on the play for two years and
they have built up production that
will be long remembered. The first
outline and plot were the work OF w.
r. Hodge who oulined the plot and
story Of the Red Streak which scored
such success in 1919. His work
has been revised aud completed by &.
W. Nicolsen. an M. @. M. student
and graduate of the University OF
Michigan who has had considerable sx-
perience in this work.
The music for the play is all new
and is the work of Schaber, Longyear,
Mills and Gray. The stage director,
the man on whose work the success or
failure OF play directly depends, Is
w. q. Sparks, physical director at the
college. He understands the work
thoroughly and is getting wonderful
results from his men A competent
cast has been picked and the choruses
are excellent.
lt is a far cry from the M. G. M.
student In heavy boots and corduroy'
smeared with hematite who goes Il
the iron county every spring TO do his
mine surveying to the pretty little
maiden who can sing and dance Will

The male parts OF the play are de
signed to allow the typical M. g. M
student to appear to the best advan
tage and iron county people who saw

Not Thoroughly Understood

Judge Rite was here last Monday
holding his regular weekly session of
the probate court. An insane hearing
and an application for widow 3
pension were up for consideration. the
latter being taken under advisement.
In discussing the widows pension
act. Judge Rite said that the COM
parsons made between this county
and others, especially Dickinson, Mar
quette and Houhgton are grossly mic
leading for the reason that In those
counties an altogether different system
of caring for the poor exists.
Take Dickinson county as an ex-
ample, said Judge Rite THAT
county has the county poor system.
The county and not the townships takes
care Of the poor. The county hired
an expert to take charge Of the poor
business Of the county, paying him
something like 81. 500. When a widow
comes TO the probate judge In Dickin-
son county he tells her that the county
has a man especially to take care of
such cases and TURNS her over TO that
man who investigates her case just as

Dear SIR
Your article in last weeks issue OF

cal Trick bslieye'is rather misIead-
ing as IL surely leaves the impression
that this trick was pulled off by the
Progressives which can assure yon it
was not and believe You know il.

ried on a clean campaign from beginn-
ing TO end regardless of what anyone
may have to say TO the contrary.
My personal feelings in regard to this
matter Is that | would sooner wage a
clean fight and lose, than to win out
by trIckery and mudslinging methods.
also wish to say that if our oppo-
nents are anxious to find the sender OF
that message to Mr.. Martin, they
should just look around among them
selves and they will very likely FIND
the culprit without much trouble.

name of the man threatened with
indictment, "this fellow is a close

BURIAL PLACE OF KING JOHN
Writer Declares lnterment Of Famous
English Monarch Took Place
at Worcester.

In the American Law Review there
appeared an article in which the
writer made an alluslon to King John
OF England, and said he went ito his
unlamented rest at St. Wolstan's."
Now, is this correct7 King John was
buried at Worcester and in the ca
thedral there, and his body has slept
In that srot until now, unless, like a
streak Of morning cloud, it has melted
into the infinite azure of the past. In
1897, for the purpose Of Identifying
the resting place of the king and his
remains, a committee of citizens was
appointed to investigate this matter.
The body was identified and all that
remained Of It placed in a new maui
eoleum, where II stands today as one
of the objects of interest in Worces-
ter cathedral. Shakespeare, in his
king john" puts in the mouth of
Prince Henry the following words
AT Worcester must his body be In
TERED, for so he willed It," Thus we
see King John was buried in worces-
ter cathedral, and 1t is therefore mac
curate to say he was buried at st. VOL
STAINS. The memory Of King John is
not cherished with the feeling that has
followed the lives and deaths of some
OF England's sovereigns, and he will
be remembered only as the monarch
from whom was extorted the great
charter Of English liberty, from which
this country has received a large part
of it's valued nheritance.-Letter to
