AkTI-SOCIAlISTS TO HOLD
DEMONSTRATION JUNE %
CLUBS OF COPPER COUNTRY
WILL UNITE LAST SUNDAY
OF MONTH.

June 2S has been definitely selected
as the date Of the reunion of the Fin
nish Anti-Socialist clubs of the copper
country, i'm Hancock. Committees are
mapping plans for the program and
exercises which win require the entire
afternoon will be conducted. This will
be the first united effort 10 demon
strate the strength of the anti-social-
list organization and considerable in
terest attends the reunion. There will
be speaking in the English and Fin
nish languages at the Anthony grove
and music by various organizations.
The various branches of the club
have been adding new members rapid
ly and the membership now is said
TO embrace more than seventy per cent
of the Finnish population of the copper
country. More applications are on file
but the care which is exercised in
admitting members prohibits imme-
diate action.
What the clubs wish to impress up
on the minds of the public, and the
celebration June %. is one of the
means adopted to emphasize this fact.
is that all Firms are not socialists.
During the recent labor troubles in
the copper country the Finnish social
lists are alleged to have made il APP
pear that the Firms of the copper
country as a whole were back of the
strike. Thinking people were not ready
TO believe that but so prevalent did the
idea become that clubs have been or
ganized To the utter exclusion Of all
but socialistic adherents.
June 2S will be big day in Han
cock and will bring to the city thou
sands of Finnish people from all parts
of the district. one of these clubs has
been organized at Mass City and as a
large delegation is coming from that
palce there being some talk of hiring
a special train and running an excur-
sion to Hancock on that day

MAY EXCELLENT MONTH
FOR GROWING OF CROPS
NJ ONT LY METEOROLOGICAL
STATEMENT ISSUED BY
OBSERVER.

That May was an excellent month
for farmers OF the copper country is
borne out by the monthly meteorologi-
cal report Of Weather Observer Cowd-
rich. \ little rain az night and plenty
of sunshine during the day is the
greatest aid To the crops and this was
the sort of weather that was experience
ed for practically the entire month.
May was the warmest of the CORES
ponding months i'm the records of the
weather bureau for the past fourteen
years. The average temperature
throughout The month was "a. 1t was
also the drleSt May ever recorded,
with the exception OF May. 1901, when
l.s9 inches of rain fell. During the
past month the total rainfall was
-. The average May rainfall in the
copper country is 3.29 inches.
one feature OF the weather eNper-
fenced during the past month was the
record established for wind velocity.

Is of 30 miles an hour AND maintained
this rate for approximately five min

recorded at the local station. During

JUNE MARRIAGE LICENSES.
County Clerk Dubious AS TO Prospects
For a New Record

County clerk Kaiser is somewhat
dubious over the prospects of a new
high record for marriage licenses in
June and unless eight applications are
filed with the license clerk each day of
the month. the record OF 1907 will re-
main unhroken. But June Is the month
in which cupid is the most active, ac-
cording To the records OF the license
bureau, and there is a probability Of
previous records at least being equal
led. The copper country is prosperous
and the license bureau is a veritable
barometer of business condition So the
possibilities Of new high record are
not entirely remote.
The banner year for marriages in
Houghton county was 1907 and the rec
ord month was June 1907, when 1O6 Ii
censes were issued. Thus far, 1914 is
2O3 licenses behind the record year but
only l6 behind the record To date of
last year In June. 1918, ninety-seven
licenses were issued
