The COMING oF MAYOR ELLIS.

Another Republican candidate for
the nomination for governor is coming
TO the upper peninsula, Mayor William
Ellis of Grand Rapids, who shortly will
make tour OF the district. He will be
given cordial welcome, listened 10 at
tentively and invited To come again.
We do not know what effect his visit
will have. but we do know Mr. Ellis
was not i'm sympathy with the action
Of Governor Ferris in ordering the mi
litia 10 the copper country at the out
break Of the strike. In recent inter-
view the mayor was quoted as saying
If 1 were governor the National
Guard would never be used i'm a
labor dispute until every other
agency of preserving order had
been fully tried"
So the people of the copper country
have reason 10 be thankful that Mayor
Ellis was not governor at the time of
the strike We know if Governor Fer
ris had not sent the militia mere that
there would have been numerous SAN
culinary encounters, that the mines
would have been flooded ana millions
Of dollars worth Of property destroyed
II was not time 10 parley; il was
time for decisive action. II was due
only to the prompt action Of the COVER
nor that the situation was SO soon con-
trolled.
Mayor Ellis, We take it, is after the
labor vote when he says ne would par
ley rather than act promptly in deal
ing with labor dispute. 1t is a view
which Will not appeal TO this region.

TWO DAYS IN MONTGOMERY

Not with the uncanny yelp to the wild
turkey, that usually beckons him to the
mouth of the shotgun. but we went tur-
key hunting in an automobile. The scene
Included the limit within 25 miles of Mont
gomery, on the macadamized road, built
up at distances with country homes and
wayside stores.
Tt was worth your life to be seen as
a turkey feeding along the roadway, be-
cause this hunt meant "a turkey busi-
ness"
Years ago we remembered to have gone
in an oldfashioned Concord buggy, forag
ing for country produce-this recent ride
carried us back to those days, and We
realized the modern woman has many
original methods of her own as "a buyer"
We are forbidden to call names; We can
not tell why; our friend is doing some-
thing very worth while, and what she ac-
cmoplishes is practical for others. We
threatened her with story, because we
knew her industry would put other wheels
in motion.
She gave consent to go ahead without
the name, there is so much in a name
that we have decided to adopt one and
the best one we know to suit the occasion
is Mrs. Busy-Body."
The way she goes out for business is
purely concocton of her own She
knows everybody on the road, man, wom-
