TORREZ: THE MURDERER

On the 31st of last May a plain, onery, bad Mexican mur- dered one of Williams citizens, Victor Melick, who while an officer of the law in the per formance of his duty, to justly enforce law and order. sought to take into custody the con- temptible dog who would com init murder.
 He was subsequently, tried before a Court of Law, and twelve men who had sworn be- fore God to do their duty to so- ciety, found that he had com mitted- the apex of all crimes, murder in cold blood. He had. through Flagstaff attorney, hired for thirty pieces of silver, plead Insanity" But the jury knew just how crazy he was.
 The people of Williams de- mand the execution of justice. They demand that murderers hang by the neck until they are dead.
 Recognizing these demands, the County Attorneys office convicted the accursed dog, procuring a verdict of Guilty through their untireing efforts to protect the people of this County.
 Fitted against the County Attorney is another lawyer who is insistant that ''his client, the murderer" shall not go to the gallows. He has yet to learn that justice is not merchandise. = We predict that the dog will hang. He will hang because the people of Williams demand, be-. cause the Law has ordered, be- cause Justice will be supreme. He will hang because he will be unable to defeat the Law he broke. He has had his day. We simply wonder how much long CT the avenging of the death of a citizen of Williams is to be stalled"
 But we are betting on the prosecution. It will be fair but firm.

mines.
 Thousands of them, red soaked in the doctrines of Bol- shevism, clamor for the strike as the means of syndicalizing the coal mines without the aid or consent of government, and even as starting a general red revolution in America.
 sThe public has no concep- tion of the way in which a large element among the miners has absorbed the Bolshevik econ omy and the theory of soviet control. They are for it ill tens of thousands---not as some thing to come in another gener- ation, but now. They see it com ing through a nation freezing and starving in the depths of winter.
 There is no denying their power. Some of the greates:: of the coal operators in Americ: have told me, almost quaking as they spoke, that the union holds virtually all the soft ceal mines of America in the hollow of it's hand. When it goes on strike the nation will go cold, coalless and then hungry as certainly as time passes. There the miners. When the mines close they will remain closed until starvation opens them up or the soviet. But the miners will starve no faster than the nation at large"
Williams news., 1919-11-14
COAL MINERS BELIEVE
 IN SOVIET

On November first and dur ing the next two or three days, 425, 1000 coal miners went out on strike in defiance of the law and in disobedience of re- straining order issued by a court of competant jurisdiction, in resposne to orders received from John l.. Lewis, the acting. president of the United Mine Workers of America.
 The strike resulted in the wholesale closing of schools, factories and public buildings, and made necessary for the re- storation of the wartime prior ity rulings of the Railroad Ad- ministration in order to relieve the fuel-famished cities of the midde west, and the general shortage existing throughout the United States.
 To deal with the soft coal strike the Government has re- stunned it's war powers in situa- tion which challenges the su- premacy of the law, while the strikers officers say that the issue has been brought and the the solution rests only with the coal barons.
 The strikers have assumed a menacing attitude, and up un-. til Monday would not yeild to law nor thenrights of the Amer ican people. A writer for the New York Tribune, who has visited the idle coal fields says:

But the English-haters should keep under cover, be- cause the Fritzie nation got so darn we'll licked that there is no administration for the enemies of the British Empire to tie up to.

SHOULD BE PROFIT
in MAPLE SYRUP
FORESTER DECLARES.

East Lansing, Mich, Jan. pa
goodly prospect of profit is held out by
Prof. A. X. Chittenden OF M. A. c. for
the man who ventures this spring into
the business of making a good grade Of
maple syrup. In reporting on expert
ments conducted by the department Of
forestry of M. A. c. for the purpose of
ascertaining the exact cost OF produc-
ing maple syrup, Prof. Chittenden gives
the approximate cost Of gallon Of
syrup, ready for shipment, as >1.45.
II such overhead expenses as interest
on the value of the sugar bush, and
taxes, are left out, it was found, he
said, "that the costs entering into the
production Of each gallon were tapping
trees, sos; gathering sap, $.4S boiling
sap, $50; taking up buckets, sos; fuel,
$.22; containers, $40 and depreciation
on plant, $.12-a total cost Of $l.45 per
gallon syrup Of high grade"
The results of the experiment in
greater detail can be secured by writ
ing to the department of forestry, at
M. A. c., or by mailing card to the
director of the experiment station, M.
A. c., and asking for copy of the
February issue of the stations Quarter
ly Bulletin.

If We Build
Build Now
Uncle George Takes a Few Hot
Shots on Road Building.

Hotel Clarendon, Sea Breeze, Fla.
Jan. IS, 1919.
Sometimes think am not the right
man to boost Michigan for il I were,
after all I have said and written re-
garding its wonderful and most glorious
climate, its fruits, rivers and lakes las
beautiful as any Italian lakes the sun
shines on), it seems to me that if
were worth a d-n in this business,
Michigan would be SO filled with tour
lists by this time that the state would be
unable to care for them. Say fellers,
you take whack at it yourself and see
what you can do for your own state.
In building roads for the future we
must not forget one very important
money-making problem and that is,
that enough people in the United States
went abroad yearly to spend three
hundred millions of dollars seeing
Europe and what we want to do is to
keep those people at home in future
and spend that money here, because
those who have been abroad will tell
you that we have just as fine scenery
and just as many inducements to re-
main here as they have abroad.
Michigan must lie taken into con-
sideration with its thousand miles Of
water-washed air on the shores Of Lake
Michigan and Lake Huron, extending
from Chicago via Mackinac to Toledo,
Ohio. All who have been to Florida
know that that also is one of the beauty
spots OF the United States and this
state must also be taken into consider
arion. You see am still playing my
two favorites, the Lincoln Highway
and the Dixie Highway, and it seems to
me that these two roads ought to be
among the first to be paved complete
and if you want them, why the devil
don't you work for them?
Michigan built and completed last
year 1870, 1858 square yards Of concrete
and have contracted for, which will be
built this year, 1 ,l72, 90S square yards.
A mile of road, l6 feet wide, contains
1887 square yards. Milwaukee Coun-
ty, Wis, Cook County, ILL.,, and Wayne
County, Mich, each are to spend $780,
600 in 1919, all for concrete roads.
The facts are am, as an old friend
of mine says, Chi bent' on having
good roads built by Federal aid and on
getting aliens either Americanized or
deported to protect our country from
such undesirable trash as you and +
both know are here. They caused US
no end of trouble during the war and
are still engaged in doing it. We would
have more time to build concrete roads
if we could spend less time watching
horde of un-Americans whom our pres
ent lax laws allow to enter.
Yours for Good Roads, +

4 Visited at Hayes this week. Every
thing going finely.
Investigation showed that all but two
schools of the fourteen schools adjacent
to Charlevoix territory already had the
new arithmetic chart and were enjoy
ing the help it rendered the primary
classes.
I In another week we shall know how
the entire county stands in its contest
preparedness work. Not for the sake
of the contest-oh, no, but for what il
means in years to come, and for the
training means right now
The teacher at Bay Shore has written
that her director has also ordered for
her the example books for every pupil.
These accompany the chart, but altho
It makes the outfit and method much
more complete, the commissioner had
written or spoken to no one about
them. II merely shows that someone
was looking the matter up and is on the
Job for the best results straight thru.
Good for Bay Shore.

way for Robinson, Burgess, and Pleas

Dear Folks
Well we had some Christmas, plenty
to eat and the Y. M. c. A. gave US a
package Of cookies, some cigarettes and
tobacco.
These dutchmen use us mighty, good
too. The lady where we are billeted
gave us basket with separate pack
ages containing cookies, apples, l
pear, some good molasses cake, which
sure tasted good. thought that was
very nice Of them as they don't have a
great deal to eat themselves, no sugar
Or chocolate.
When we came into Germany, we
expected to have trouble, but they
were rather glad to see us. They
would rather see the American than
the English or the French, because a
Frenchman when they come they take
anything they want. They like to see
the American cartoons on the Kaiser
too.
