BEGINS SIZING UP POSTOFFICES
Political patronage from the seat OF
government In Washington has been
little slow in reaching this neck OF
the woods but the muse says IL is on
the way. The principal muse in this
instance is Peter Michsels who has
been "sizing up the situation since
along back in NOVEMBER, 1912 when
the Donkey galloped into Washington
while the Bull Moose gored the Ele-
plant and the Elephant spanked the
Bull Moose with its trunk.
When the glad news was flashed over
the wires more than a year ago
about all Peter could see In the returns
was the word "postoffice" spelled with
a capital Up" like bis own name. The
postoffice idea grew on Peter as the
days slipped by and he has been care
fully ''sizing up" the situation on the
west side OF the county for these many
moons He has inspected all of the
postoffices. ascertained their needs and
has convinced himself that the great
est need of all in each of them is a
change in the postmastership
Peter has not made known just
which postoffice be will take himself
but he has LANDED or started to land
Martin Bies in the postoffice at
Palatks. the story goes of course Mr..
Bies didn't live in Palatka but that
was mere detail TO Peter. IL Palatka
wouldn't move into Mr.. Bies' back
ward Mr.. Bies could move to Palatka,
and he did. And when he has gained
legal residence IN Palatka Peter pro-
poses to notify President Wilson,
through official channels. that li2ht.
ming should strike without delay.
Just what other postooffies Peter has
decided TO parcel out no one. knows but
himself, but there Is considerable
wonderment expressed as to what has
become of Ed. Scott. When the latter
was not balancing the scales Of Justice
in his court Judge Scott was presumed
to be the Democratic leader in this
district, even ii he didn't assume to
he the guide for the party, and a lot
of people would like 10 know what Is
to become Of the Judge If Peter goes
on and gobbles all OF the postoffices.

Cutting Wages

The wages of the men working at
most OF the saw mills and paper mills
of Marinstte and Menominee have
been cut about ten per cent. Some OF
the concerns have reduced the wages
of their employees from ten cents a day
10 ten per cent
Most of the lumber companies have
out the wages Of the men employed in
their logging camps from % to $40 a
month and some of the smaller jobbers
also have reduced wages in their
camps
The cut in pay, however, makes il
no harder for the logger to keep full
orew-in fact. men looking for jobs
are continually being turned away
FROM the camps. il is SAID.
