The main river drive reached Mari
nette last week after two months
journey down the Menominee river
from the mouth OF the Paint river.
There. were about 25,OOO,OOo feet OF
logs In the drive. the smallest ever
brought down the river. A crew of
forty men were employed, and a good
stage of water was encountered.
Tuesday morning of last week ex-
Senator Stephenson drove up the river
and watched the completion of the
drive. 1t was the seventy-fifth drive
In which the senator had taken place.
The first drive by the Menominee
River Boom Co, was under his general
supervision as president and every
drive since has been directed by him.
All his conferees, the big lumber men
OF the region, have passed.
Next year will see the last log drive
on the Menominee and probably not
much more than 2O,O0O.000 feet will be
brought down. When the driving was
at its flower several hundred million
feet was driven. Now most OF the loge
are being brought down by rail.

J. Nj. Longyear Has Plan That Should
Prove Boon to Settlers

One of the best propositions we have
yet heard OF In the way Of inducements
to home-seekers was the one submitted
by Mr.. ]. M. Longyear of Marquette, at
the meeting of the Upper Peninsula
Development Bureau at Houghton
last week.
Mr.. Longyear represents the largest
land owning companies in the Upper
Peninsula and is well versed on the
several plans offered by land owners
to new settlers.
, The plan OF Mr.. Longyear and his
business associates is as follows:
The purchaser pays 10 per cent of
the purchase price at the time OF max
ing the contract.
II he makes improvements every
year he pays nothing else but Q per
cent interest annually for six years.
Each year for the first five years the
land owners will lend TO the settlers

cultivation during the year and will
also lend him half the value OF all per-
manent buildings erected. The money
so loaned to be used In making further
improvements on the property.
During the life OF the contract the
land must be worked in way to i'm
prove the land and not TO exhaust Il.
After five years the settler shall pay
at least an amount equal to 10 per cent
OF the total amount due under the
contract, all payments above per
cent OF the total amount due 90 be APP
piled on the principal
II the settler pays only 10 per cent
per year he will fully pay off the con
tract in about 21 years. The settler
will have had from the land a living
for himself and family during the q
years and he will have property worth
from three to six times its cost. II II

CANNOT CONTROL FISHING

Owners abutting property on lakes
which have no inlet or outlet have a
common light to fish and boat in any
portion OF the lake, according to an
opinion rendered by Acknowledgement
Fellows.
They can go where they will on the
lake to fish. provided of course they
are not guilty of trespassing on the
shore lands OF another.
They can also pass their rights to
fish TO their friends and no one owner
OF land around the lake can stop them
or their properly admitted friends.
The Importance OF the decision Is
apparent when 1t is realized that had
the attorney-general held otherwise It
might have been possible for a few
men to close scores OF Michigan lakes
to the public by merely buying up a
few feet of frontage on each one and
lacking up the proper signs
In many respects the opinion is the
most important Interpretation OF the
fish law promulgated for years. For a
long time the question as to the rights
OF one riparian owner in lake with
out an inlet or an outlet has been an
issue all over the state. II is con-
ceeded that where the lake has an in
let and an outlet the AUDITING pro-
perty owners cannot control It at all.
But where the lake is without inlet
and outlet, the abutting owners have
the right to control, although as Mr..
Fellows now rules one cannot stop
the other from coming right into his
cottage backyard
The encouragement sums up his
opinion as follows: Riparian proprie-
tors all may use that portion OF the
bed of the lake which they own in fee
for any purpose which they see 1T, but
the rights OF boating and fishing upon
the surface OF such lake are common
to ALL"
