dropped into the crotch of the tree, and
thence into hollow trunk. In the
shack where they finally took refuge
they began watching the holes in the
flooring Of the shack, hoping rat or
a mouse would appear
II would have willingly traded my
home in this city for one rat, said
Mr.. Millen His home cost about 500,

The men had abandoned all hope of
being rescued and had torn scraps Of
paper from the walls OF the shack and
were just writing farewell notes to
their families when the resources

PETITIONS UP TO
co. SUPERVISORS
THEY WILL BE ACTED UPON AT A
MEETING OF THE BOARD TODAY
NAMES MUST STAY ON
Only an IrreguIarity in the Prepar
ing or Presentation of the Peti-
tons Can Stop an Election

The matter of ordering an election
on the question OF closing Iron couny
to the sale of liquor will come up In
the county board ,ssion today upon the
presentation of the petitions by the
dry advocates AS nearly as we under
stand the method. the petitions will
be presented with an affidavit from
each OF the men who posted the copies,
showing that the proper copies have
been posted for the requisite number
of days in three conspicuous places in
each precinct.
II is then that the wsts will have
opportunity TO examine and take
action against the legality Of the
petitions. II Is we'll understood that
all petitions must be in regular form
that the least irregularity will lead
to their rejection.
1t is very likely that both sides will
be represented by attorneys While we
have been unable TO learn exactly the
number and names OF the attorney who
will appear il is commonly understood
that l. w. Byers will handle the side
of the drys and it is probable that he
will have assistance We understand
that Clarence Dwyer and Chas. ii.
Watson will appear for the west.
We made statement last week that
signers could withdraw their names.
This we understand has been done
away with. man who signs q
petition cannot get his name off. III
his name has been obtained under false
pretense or fraud of any kind the man
VINO caused il TO be placed there can
be prosecuted crimlnally.
The names on the petition will have
to be checked with the registration
books OF the several precincts and il
any name appears of non voters such
names must be rejected The cnecking
OF the lists will employ considerable
time and il is likely that it cannot be
accomplished at this meeting.
The first attack will probably be
upon the petitions in an effort 20
show some of them 20 be illegal. We
stated last week that no petition was
secured in the ist ward This was
wrong and came from 4 misnnder
standing Two petitions were circu
lated and one Of them came in too late
80 no use was made of 1t but the other

list was regularly posted,
Considerable speculation is abroad
rs to the probable action OF the board
lt seems to be the sentiment to
order an election provided there is no
irreguarity in the petitions, Judging
from what little comment we have
heard At least four Of the super
visors are siRners Of the petitions and
they say that no ine.drswn technicality
shall influence them in this matter.

FARMERS SHOULD TAKE CARE
Hunters and Dogs Garry The Hoof and
Mouth Disease Without Knowing II

Since the hoot and mouth disease
broke out in the upper peninsula the
attention OF the farmers have been
called more directly to IL and efforts
are being made 10 stamp out the
disease or to prevent its spread to
counties where it has not made its
appearance. Iron County has not
been visited yet but no one knows
how soon IL will be.
Ono way that the disease is carried
is by hunters and dogs. So fearful
have farmers in the lower part of the
peninsula become over the disease
that numerous inquiries have been
made as to the right OF the farmer or
owner of premises 10 protect their
herds from the liability of the disease.
The replies of the authoritives are
that they should shoot the dogs and
arrest the tre spassers Farmers phould
first nail up sivns warning away tress-
passers and then II they persist in
visiting she premises have them
arrested
While deer season lasted the hunters
from the cities used dogs and tres
passed upon the lands of farmers who
had banded together to fight the spread
of the epidemic. The deer season is
over but these northern woods are
always infested with hunters using
dogs whether tor deer. partridge or
rabbit and FARMERS ought not desist
in their efforts until all danger OF the
disease spreading has pa ,sed. One OF
the strongest regulations that can be
adopted is 10 prevent strangers, and
especially hunters from entering the
farms. This is due to the fact that
hunter or dog can carrv the di sea- 80
without knowing il and can thus
bring about the spread Of the disease
here just the thing which the people
are fighting against.
Ii is believed by stock raisers that
the disease has run it's course and
is now on the decline. No new cases
have been discovered in any OF the
infected districts. and 1T is generally
believed by federal inspectors that the
outbreak has been mastered.
Despite this fact. owners of stock
herds in the county are using
disintectants in their barns daily and
every possible precaution is being
exercised which will prevent the
spread OF the disease into the county.
The herds are being carefully watched
Tor any outbreak OF the malady.
