Woods Labor Plentiful.

Lumber operators and jobbers are
now laying plans for their season s
operations, and thirty days hence
many of them will have crews in tho
woods
Labor is more plentiful and wages
in the woods will rule lower than for
many years. Thousands of men are
out of employment, and in spite OF
he lower wage operators will find no
difficulty in filling their Crews.
Because of the depressed condition
of the lumber market, however,
operators are inclined to move with a
good deal OF caution, and unless there
is distinct Improvement in the tone
of the market within the next few
months the output of woods products
is likely TO be considerably curtailed.

Boys Using Firearms Carelessly

In his wandering about the woods
looking for yiolators Game Warden
Wilson tells MS that il is a common
thing to come upon mere boys hunting
with big guns. most of them showing
carele ssness in handling them. In
some instances Mr.. Wilson said, they
are noticed going through the woods
or along the road, with the hammers
up on their loaded weapons, ready
for the slightest touch on the trigger.
In other cases the boys are noticed
Gaming against the barrel of their
loaded weapons, while resting. This
is the way most Of the hunting ac-
cidents through carelessness,
Parents who allow their boys this
liberty should take heed and instruct
them in the proper use Of firearms or,
better still, keep them out of the
woods during the next two months
and avoid accidents.

Michigan Banks On Easy Street

Michisgn national hanks have not
called upon the secretary of the
treasury for any of the emergency
currency authorized under the
provisions OF the Aldrich- Vreeland
act, as amended by the federal reserves
act of Aug. 4, 1914. This indicates
hat business conditions In the state
are not in the least unstable.
Senator Reed. Of Missouri, declared
on the floor of the senate that Michigan
had several millions OF this money
but was contradicted by Senator
William Alden Smith. Later senator
Reed introduced figures IN evidences
which showed that Senator Smith was
correct in mis- denial. The amount
of his additional currency thus far
issued in the middle western states is
S84, 445, 900, including the city OF
Chicago. The maximum amount OF
additional currency still ssuable In
the discretion OF the secretary by the
national banks in these states is
1901, 49i 600. Cf this Michigan banks
may issue n maximum OF $40, 2e3, 600.

Looks Encouraging For Fuller

According TO the word which has
been sent in from various Michigan
counties. prospects for the renomina-
stion of o. b. Fuller, present auditor
general of the state of Michigan, are
most encouraging to the candidate
and his friends.
This is good news for Michigan.
Mr.. Fuller has been a highly efficient
state official If Se had been merely
mediocre he would not be entitled to
fourth term. But he has been by all
means, the most competent man who
has held the Office of auditor general
within the memory of present gem
erations
II. is a proverbial fact about the
capitol that Mr. Fuller's department Is
well organized and extremely efficient
The state at large knows tnat this
department keeps jealous eye on the
funds of the state and that no man
gets dollar TO which he is not
entitled or dollar less than is due
him
Mr. Fuller has probably saved the
state OF Michigan several times the
total amount OF his salary by his at
tention to details. He has dealt
firmly with big corporations which
failed TO pay taxes and he never
DIVORCED SO far rs is known from the
absolute letter and spirit OF the law
concerning the collection and disburse-
ment Of funds.
When the state is fortunate enough
to have a public servant of this kind
the best thing that il can do is to
emulate the course which private
business concern would follow hang
on to the employe.
II the Republican nomination for
auditor general is made on tho basis
OF efficiency Mr.. Fuller will get it

Hay Shed Burned

The hay shed belonging TO Jacob
Bauer and located op his upper farm.
was burned by some vandal last Tues.
day night. The shed contained 60
ton, Of fine hay which Mr. Bauer had
but recently placed there. There Is
no doubt but that the fire was set
by some one either designedly or by
accident as the shed is far away from
any dwelling and no one had been
about the place during the day to
leave any FIRE burning. The loss to
Mr.. Cauer is very great.

OUTLOOK IMPROVES
Iron and Steel Market Stronger Than
for Some Weeks Past

The United States Steel corporation
is reported TO have booked con-
siderable volume of foreign business
during the last few days and the
independent companies have also
landed good orders. Important
inquiries from large concerns have
been received for billets and sheet
bars, the total being placed as high as
IL, 600 tons
Ii is thought probable that ulti-
mately large tonnage of sheet bars,
hitherto supplied by Germany. will be
rolled in the Pittsburg district for
English manufacturers. A number of
contracts for machinery and machine
tools have been placed in this country
by European governments Large
domestic orders pending include one
OF 30, 900 steel barrels, which is about
to be placed in the East.
IL is said that a large volume of
pending orders for rails and equipment
is being held up on account of the
difficulty being experienced in
financing. and the same situation
applies to building operations on a
large scale. FinancIers are now
hopeful that difficulties will be over
come with the putting through of the
plan TO provide a fund 500, 900, 600
to place foreign exhange arrange-
ments on firm basis.
erro.manganese imports from
England to this country are still
costing 500 ton, as compared with
an average price Of S3f before the
war started This, however. Is a
decrease of $40 a ton from the high
price set early in August. Manufac-
turers are counting upon some relief
in the manganese situation through
the manganiferous ores from the
Guyana range becoming available.
IL is expected that the Steel corpor-
alton will soon be ready TO supply
ferro- manganese 10 the trade from
Brazil at fixed price of - ton.

ONE BLOCKED
HUGE VERDICT
JURY WANTED TO GIVE LOUISE
kRYCH A VERDICT OF $500
SENTENCES WERE IMPOSED
On Those Convicted on Wednesday
With the Usual Idea of Re-
forming, Not Furnishing

One Juror. said to be John Coughni-
han of Iron River, stood pat for 30
hours in the jury room of the circuit
court for this county during the week
and prevented larger verdict than
81. 900 being awarded TO Louise Krych
commonly known as Louise Gray.
The action was one brought by the
guardians of the girl against the
village of Stambaugh for injury on the
sidewalks of that village
The plaintiff was represented by
Clarence d. Dwyer Of this city and c..
G. Rite and the village by A. f.
Dixon Of Stambaugh and S. G.. Spencer
of Escanaba
The testimony showed that the girl.
who IS child of 0 years of age, fell
upon the walk Of that village one
year ago and received injuries 10 her
hip that are permanent. The testimony
showed that the walk was defective
beyond a shadow of doubt The
defense was that the injuries 10 the
child were not what thsy were claimed
to be by the plaintiff that her
disability resulted from rheumati sm
and not from the fall.
Much expert testimony was intro
duced and also testimony showing
that the girl prior to her fall had been
bright and active. The principal
medical witness for the plaintiff was
DIR. Minnihan of Green Bay who cared
for the little one. The defense called
here by wire a nerve specialist from
Chicago who examined the child and
then testified that her trouble was
infantile paralysis.
The trial lasted four days and was
hard fought one from start to finish.
The jury had hard tussle with it,.
Some wanted to give her $40, 600. some
81, 900, some 80, 600 and others 81, 600.
After many hours deliberation eleven
Of the jurors set upon 81, 500 but one
stood at 81, 900 and although the ses.
sion was continued many hours after
that no compromise was obtainable
and q verdict of $4,000 was finally
awarded as stated above.
