FATHER JOISTEN
PASSES AWAY.

The Rev. Father Joisten, aged forty
eight years, Of Norway, who served as
pastor at L'Anse from January 11th.
1894 to July 10th, 1893, died Tuesday
morning at Norway. following an oper-
alton for appendicitis.
Father Joisten was born in Duessel-
dorf, Germany, July 20, 1868. He was
ordained in this city by Bishop Vertin,
Dec. II. 1891, and had served as priest
at Norway since 1900. Previous to his
pastorate at Norway he was located in
L'Anse, where during his residence the
Sacred Heart church was built.
Father Joisten was . conscientious
worker and was dearly loved by all in
his parish. His unceasing labors, which
often kept him from rest all hours Of
the night, are said by physicians to
have undermined his constitution and
thus to have prevented him from re-
covering from an operation which or
dinarily is not considered serious. Oc-
curing in the prime Of his life and
after sixteen years of labor among his
flock, Father Joisten's death is greatly
mourned.
Rev. Father Hem attended the fun
eral at Norway Thursday morning.

il to what was put out by the Journal.
We also stated that we had no objec-
tions whatever to the board seeing that
the work was divided up equally, but
We did object to going back over expired
contracts.
In regard to the Farmers statement
that Mr.. Voetsch claimed that the
quality of the work work warranted the
officers giving all their work to the
Sentinel, we must state that this is a
misstatement. and the editor of the
Farmer knowsit, too, Mr.. Getzen has
insinuated at the board meetings that
Mr.. Voetsch was using his Office to
swing work to this paper, and when
Mr.. Getzen was asked at the June
meeting by Mr.. Voetsch If he was not
getting more work from him in COM
parison to the other officers, he did not
deny anything. This talk of several of
the county officers being stockholders
in the Sentinel and profiting on the
work is all bosh-Judge of Probate
Mclean is connected with US in financ-
ial way, but if anyone cares to compile
figures, we think that the records will
show that the judges printing account
is even, if not more in favor of the
Journal. AS to the jabs at Mr.. Voetsch,
we much say that ever since the Farmer
was established it has been second
nature to whoever was in charge to
take q slam at him. always without its
being warranted.
The editor of the Farmer seems to be
very much worried over this printing
contract. Mr.. Getzen himself does not
print line regarding the argument.
At the May meeting of the board Of
supervisors, no action whatever was
taken on the printing matter, and at
the June meeting Mr.. Hid was the
only person who made any official re-
marks regarding the question and no
action was taken by the board. The
Farmers statement that the remainder
Of the printing except the ballots was
ordered to 60 to the Journal until the
printing was equalized, , is absolutely
false. The Farmers representative
was at the June meeting, and he either
did not care to tell the truth of the
matter or was influenced to write what
he did.

That County Printing.

Our contemporary devoted consider
able space last week to misrepre-
sentation of the question Of the county
printing as discussed at the last meet
ing of the board of supervisors.
In, the beginning let US state that at
the June 18th meeting and the May
meeting Of the board Mr.. Gstzen Of the
Barsga Journal made a complaint that
he was not getting his share of the job
printing according to the terms Of bis
contract, which provides that >the
county ofiesrs hhAll divide their job
printing d hear as possible between
the BafAga Journal and the Sentinel.
In reply to this argument, the writer
appeared before the board each time
after Mr.. Getzen and stated that we
were given the work by various officers
and could not very well turn II down II
IT was given to 10.
At the last mseting Il was shown
that the Baraga Journal was usihg in

SIMPLIFY AUTO RIM DESIGNS.
Goodyear Pattern Get Away from
Chinese-pu.sIe Type.

The trend Of automobile rim desien
is toward simplicity" says l. NJ. Gem
mill. manager of the Goodyear Tire
and Rubber Company.
The desire of dealers and msnufac-
turers to get away from the cumber-
some Chinese-puzzle type of rim with
it's many complicated parts TO the sim
plified type. has been shown very strfk-
ingly by the reception which has been
accorded the Goodyear detachable de-
mountable rim. 1t obviates the use OF
all special tools and fastenings. and
ens bles the motorist to remove the tire
from the rim without taking the rim
from the wheel"
The rim base of the Goodyear de-
tachable demountable rim lie solid or
endless 1t is extremely simple and
allows the tire to be removed while the
rim is still fastened to the wheel II
permits the removal of tire in one
operation instead of the two distinct
operations necessary with split rims.
Its simplicity makes tire changing
easy.
The side ring which holds the tire
in place is quickly removed by in
serting an ordinary screw driver or
similar tool under II to start, and IL
can be pulled the rest of the way with
the hand. Then the tire slips of
easily. The whole performance need
not consume more than q moment

The Persia.

At the moment when America was congratulate
ing itself that the "crsis with Austria was thing
of the past comes the news that passenger ship
with no munitions on board and over 100 women
and children has been torpedoed in the Eastern
Mediterranean with another sckenngly large loss
Of life. Two three Americans were board,
unfortunately" one paper expresses it. There
fore it is suggested there will be new "crisis."
For ourselves we have doubt that any such crisis
will arise except paper. If Austria cannot think
up an excuse for the affair we will think up one
for her, if she does not care to apologize will
apologize to ourselves and explain that there was
mistake somewhere. AS a matter of fact the
last Austrian note on the Ancona case is not by
any means an acquiescence in the demands of the
United States. For the right to sink passenger
ship before all passengers are removed to place
of safety is expressly reserved though the reser-
walton is covered up in carefully chosen language.
But the unanimous shouts of relief which heralded
the so-called adjustment of the incident shows our
disposition in the matter. They cannot make us
fight by smacking our face Nothing short OF
breaking rib will do it and perhaps not that
