WILL NOT GET MEDAL.
Carnegie Commission Rules Adverse.
ly in Case of Houghton Boy.

Houghton resident has been ad-
vised that the Carnegie Hero Fund
commission has decided that Russell
Balconi, Houghton boy, is not enti-
tied to medal from the commission.
Russell is thirteen years of age and
last Joy he saved from drowning Les
lie Picket, boy slightly younger than
himself. Persons acquainted with the
facts thought that the Carnegie fund
should be advised and as a result an
investigation was started. 1t was
shown that Russell was in bathing
suit, just ready to go in swimming,
when Leslie fell from boat. Rus
sell saved him but because of his abil-
ity to swim and the other circum-
stances the saving is not looked upon
as having been accomplished at great
risk to himself.

MUCH WORK CUT OUT
FOR NEXT LEGISLATURE
SIDERED, ONE AFFECT
ING UTILITIES.

In many respects the next session of
the legislature will be one of the most
important gatherings Of the lawmak-
ers i'm the history of Michigan, says a
Lansing dispatch. 1t is not believed
that the boys with freak measures will
he able to make much Roadway and
serious consideration will he given to
he introduced at the next general as
sembly.
Foremost among the important
measures will be bill charging the
scope of the state railroad commission
and possibly changing it into a public
utilities commission. &. l.. Glasgow,
who has served as member of the
state railroad commission for nearly
six years, favors bill that would eX-
tend the powers of the commission to
cover every public service corporation.
At the presen, time the state rail-
road commission is given jurisdiction
over the railroads, telephone compan-
les and power companies. but in many
respects the powers OF this board are
limited, and ii is believed by many who
have studied the situation that the
scope of the commission should be en-
larged
1t is known, that bill will he pre-
scented at the next session that will
place municipal and privately owned
heating and lighting plants of all de-
scliptions under the jurisdiction OF the
state railroad commission and permit
the state board to regulate telegraph
rates within the state.
At the present time the state rail-
road commission has no supervision
over gas companies except in the issu-
ance of bonds, and the railroad COM
mission has been unable to entertain
complaints made by patrons of the gas
companies relative to overcharging,
etc.
G. l.. Glasgow OF the state railroad
commission says that the people are
entitled to some consideration by pub
lie service corporations. and he says
that IL is the arbitrary and unreason-
able tactics of some companies which
brings public service corporations gem
orally into disrepute.

NEW EQUIPMENT IN USE.
Hose Coupling and Nozzle Permanent

Some time ago Chief Exley OF the
Hancock fire department received a
new nozzle and new hose coupling

been used by members of the depart

The new hose coupling simplGes

pushed on and twisted, the operation
costing NO delay The new nozzle Is
for use in lighting collar fires where
it is impossible for tho nrcmen 10 To-

TO UNITE ANTI.
SOCIALIST CLUBS
Meeting to Be Held Here Sunda,
toForm District Organization

Since the inception of the anti-So-
clalist movement in the copper coun-
try several new clubs opposed to So
cialism have been formed. Calumet
Hancock, South Range, Mass, Aston
and Freda now have such nourishing
organizations.
The leaders of the Anti socialistic
movement have hit upon a new idea
and are of the opinion that it will
strengthen the movement throughout
the district The plan of the officials
Of the various clubs is to form one
strong organization, to he known as
the Copper Country Anti-socialist club,
To replace the smaller clubs. For this
purpose representatives Of each club
will meet Sunday afternoon at 3
O'Clock i'm the North Star Temperance
hall i'm Hancock.
Hancock advocates of the Anti-so-
cialist movement are strongly in favor
OF the plan, and IL is said other clubs
have agreed TO lend their aid and in
fluence to the project.
Since the organization Of anti-So-
cialist clubs Socialism has been re-
tarded and it is expected in a short
time will be almost unknown in the
land of the red metal.
John Hrvonen, who was secured by
members of the Anti-socialist Clubs
some time ago to act as travelling
speaker and aid in forming clubs i'm
every town in the copper country, has
been doing excellent work and il is
largely due to his efforts that the Anti
socialist movement has secured such
a strong foothold here. Mr.. Hirvonen
will talk at Sundays meeting after
which he will leave for the iron coun-
try and attempt to organize several
clubs i'm the towns of that district.
For the present it is planned to
merely consolidate the clubs OF the
copper country into one large organi-
cation, but it is hoped that in the near
future, after the iron country clubs
have secured a footing in that district
that they will also become connected
with the copper country club. Should
this develop the two large organiZa-
tions will consolidate and probably
will be known as the Upper Peninsula
Anti-socialist club.

JAPs REVIVE LAND ISSUE.
Coast States Election Results Make
Demands From Nippon Likely.

Washington, Nov. 17.-Japan is pre-
pairing to call the Administrations at
tention to the Pacific coast land dis
turbance once again because of the
anti-JapaneSe results in the recent cleo
tons.
1t has developed that in California
and Washin gton. the two states where
there is the strongest anti-Japanese
feeling, the legislatures will be over
whelmingly opposed to the Asiatics.
According to an official in the diplo-
matte service here Japan is now con-
sldering whether to preciptate the land
question before the outcome of the pres
ent war or whether to wait until after
it closes to make her next move. She
is in a strong position to insist upon her
claims whichever way she decides
1t is said that Japan will insist that
her citizens shall be given rights sim
liar to those enjoyed by citizens of all
other nations or else that the American
open door shall be closed to Europeans,
just as it is now closed to Asiatics. One
of the main reasons for Japan's insist
ence is her desire to silence the jingoists
at home, who are insisting upon
! reprisals against the United States if
| the determinations on the Pacific coast
| continue.
Japans contention undoubtedly will
be more embarrassing to the admins
| tration than ever before. The close
| of the European war probably will see
a great emigration from Europe to the
United States. Many of those who
come will be most desirable, persons
/ whom this country can not afford to
refuse admittance. On the other hand,
Japan will have strong diplomatic as
sistance to force her claims because of
| the readiness with which she joined
the allies when they requested her
help
| The most serious factor in the sit
uation at the present is the idleness of
Japan's armed forces. Her navy is
securing the Pacific for a small squad
ron of German ships Japan probably
| will run these to cover shortly Her
army has just captured Using Tau and
| there appears to be nothing else for il
to do in the war unless it is transported
across Siberia into the eastern theater
of Europe to join the Russians either
in their campaign against the Turks
or their campaigns against the Teu-
tons.
