Their first visits to this region
date back to 1910. 1t was not
until 1868 however, that the first
actual settlement was made.
This was the mission at Sault
Sainte Marie, founded by Father
Marquette. Mackinac was es-
tablished a few years later, and
Detroit's growth was slow.
After the French and Indian
wars the English took over this
territory, and in 17T4 it was for
mally declared a part Of Canada.
Detroit rapidly grew in i'npor-
lance and during the Revolution
was the base Of operations for
many raids By the British and
Indians against the Americans.
BY the terms of the treaty of
Paris in 1888 this region became
a part Of The United States.
What is now Michigan, Wiscon-
sin, part of Minnesota, Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio was known as
the Northwest territory. After
Ohio was set off as separate
state the Lower Peninsula Of
Michigan was joined to Indiana
territory. In 1906 Michigan be-
came a separate territory with
about its present boundaries.
There was, however, a great
dispute over a small strip of
land in the extreme southern
portion which was claimed by
Ohio. This almost led to blood
shed, but was finally settled by
Michigan releasing her claim to
the disputed area and receiving
as compensation an addition to
the Upper Peninsula. On this
basis Michigan was admitted to
the Union in 1887 and became
the twenty-sixth state.
Michigan has Q unique situa-
tion, as 1t is bounded by the

and divided into two peninsulas.

BOMB SUSPECT
UNDER ARREST
PSEUDO SECRET SERVICE MAN
TRAIL Ed BY SUPPOSED CON-
FEDERATE AND NABBEO
Singular Story of Plots and Counter
plots Revealed. Suspect Trailed
All Over World and Finally
Caught in Russia

Warsaw.-Plots and counterplots
reading Ike a chapter from fiction,
were involved in the search for clews
in many parts of Europe by American
secret service agents which resulted
n the arrest here Saturday of Wolfe
L~indenfeld, alias William Linde, in
connection with the Wall street bomb
explosion IN New York in September,
1920. Lindenfeld has fully confessed
the authorities say, naming the ring
leaders in the plot which, he declared,
was aimed at ]. p. Morgan, the infer
nal machine exploding p~rematurely.
According to Sylvester Cosgrove and
the suspect has named five principals
in the plot. now in Europe, who re-
ceived $4,000 from the Moscow Third
Internationale through New York COM
munists. Lindenfeld has declared his
willingness to return to New York as
soon as cssible and turn states evil
dence. The Polish authorities say he
was exposed in 1906 as a Russian sec
ret agent and fled TO America at that
time, returning to Europe last spring.
Altendorf came to Europe in Febru-
airy last, while L.nGenfeld came over
in March. During the summer Alien
dorf, living In various c~ommunistic
centers, obtained a clew which led him
to seek Lindenfeld's acquaintance. AS
a result, C%osgrove arrived in Warsaw
two months ago, posing as having con-
n~ections with communist groups In
America, and was introduced to Lin
denfeld by Altendorf. After estab-
fishing his acquaintance, Cosgrove sug-
gested to L.ndenfeld n scheme whereby
by giving information in regard to the
Wall street explosion, he could receive
q large share of the rewards offered
for the arrest of the piotters, without
risk to himself.
Polish operatives shadowed Linden
field and the Poles claim that while Lin
dcnfield was pretending to play to Cos
groves hands he was at the same time
double crossing the Americans. Clews
developed while trailing Lindenfeld led
the police agents to arrest a number
of communists who are alleged to be
spies working against the interests of
Poland

Horoscops Black For 1926

London-The year 1896 is destined
to shake the world to It's foundation,
both physically and politically. II is
to be a succession of plaques, famine,
floods, shipwrecks, rioting and revOlu-
ton. SO says the British Journal Of
Astrology, which has drawn the horo-
scope for that year, when the planets
Mars and Mercury will be In coniunc-
ton. Six years later the great Arnla-
gedon is to take place. 1t will be a
final conflict between Mohamme1ian-
ism allied with bolshevism against the
united Anglo Saxon world. 1t will end
in a universal peace" In 1892, but
there viii be so few of us left and we
shall all be so tired that peace should
happen anyhow" the horoscope says.

LIVESTOCK AID IS

"AID GIVEN LIVESTOCK MEN II

Speakers at Utah Association Con.
vention See Need of Better
Markets to Provide Per-
manent Relief

Salt Lake-"Aid given livestock in
t~erests of the West by the War FL
nance corporation is only postponin9
an evil day. 1t is a temporary meas
ure and unless better markets can be
had, together with better prices, cat
tlemen may as well liquidate In favor
Of the banker and go to work on state
roads" These in brief are the re.
marks of John NJ. MacFalane promin-
ent Utah stockman, made In an address
at the session Of the third annual con
~vention Of the Utah Cattle and Horse
Growers association held at the Hotel
Utah Monday.
Aid being furnished by the finance
corporation was heartily commended
but its benefits cannot be but tenn
porsry unless better markets for Utah
ssockmen's products are obtained. The
spread between 10 and 40 cents which
the packers and the retailers receive
for their wares is too great and car
be controlled only by organization OF
the stockraiser, continued Mr.. Mac
Farlane.
That the grower get in closer com
munication with the and by
killing his own beef conduct a direct
from producer 10 consumer business
was among the suggestions offered for
relief of stockmen. Assessments
levied by the state board nf equaliza-
ton are too high, according to ex.
pressions of stockmen at the ,onven-
ton. Cooperation among themselves
and efforts to obtain lower taxes were
suggested as relief methods.
General optimism exists among
stockmen of the country as to the flu
ture of the livestock industry, John 7.
Caine III told the delegates. Mr.. Caine
has recently returned from the Inter
national Livestock show, held at Chi
cago. The show was the largest in its
history, he said.
Closer cooperation and organization
among stockmen for the purpose of
combating influences which are ap-
parently working against the industry
was advocated by ID. ]. Sheehan in an
address on Livestock Problems" The
transportation rates were especially
emphasized. An instance of one rail-
road which has derived millions OF
from the livestock industry
Mr.. Sheehan SAID, was cited and at.
called to its action of immedi
raising freight rates on stocb
when the s.~skman was
confronted by the most trying cir
culnmstances. Cattle cannot be raj e.
and sod for 4 and 5 cents per pound
