The state assembly of Michigan feels
that the show is worthwhile and in
addition to 100000 voted a week ago
advertising the resources of the state
to tourists, appropriated $4,000 OF
state funds for the outdoor show.
Individual displays are also made by
resorts in Michigan.
Tourist traffic provides employment
for thousands of people and the build
ing of summer homes increases the
tax fund of the community, while the
state receives a direct revenue amount
ing to hundreds of thousands of dol
lars annually through its gasoline tax
and hunting and fishing licenses.
The Ely Commercial Club in this
years folder will lay particular stress
on the summer home possibilities This
part of the tourist business is of i'm
menSe benefit. The summer home
resident becomes part of the COM
munity and takes an interest in local
affairs and the affairs of the state,
besides becoming cash patron of
local institutions.
Some one with a badly perverted
sense Of decency has dumped a lot
Of slaughter house scraps, heads, bones,
entrails, etc, alongside of Highway
No. 81 south of the city and near the
city limits. This mess, unless cleaned
up, will contaminate the air in that
vicinity as soon as warm weather sets
in. An effort is being made to get
the guilty party and an example made
of him or them.

In another place in this paper will
be found the proposed constitution and
bylaws of the Ely Commercial Clup.
These were compiled by committee
and will be acted on at the next meet
ing, section by section. In the mean
time they should be carefully read and
digested and, when needed, doctored
up to suit. Bring your amendments
to the next meeting and be prepared to
suggest the changes to be made, If
you feel they are needed.
A membership in the Ely Commef-
cial Club means that you are alive to
the interests Of the city from civic
standpoint. The City Council, although
Wiling to do many things demanded
in civic matters is restricted by law
from such acts The Commercial Club
acts as a buffer between the coun Ill
and the people and performs these
duties necessary in the conduct
of well regulated and prosperous
city. Every citizen of Ely should be a
member of the Commercial Club and
work with the club and the City Coun-
Gil in the up-building of Ely and this
Playground of Nation"
Now comes the legislative commit
tee on fish and game and recommends
that the one buck law be tried for two
years. The recommendations are that
the deer season opens on November Is
and continue for ten days during the
years 1929 and 1880 and during which
shooting will be limited to antlered
male deer. Whether bill to this eff
feet will become q law remains to be
E. n but 1t Is a pretty safe bet that
the recommendations Of the commit
tee will bear weight.
More honors for the ranges. CHS
holm high school swimmers finished
second in the national tourney at Chi
cago this week. We sincerely con-
graduate Chisholm on their achieve
ment. When sports are to be held for
the district, state or nation, we call
attention to the fact hat range
athletes figure in them to large ex-
tent.
It was rumored about that the pike
season was to be changed and the
opening deferred until a later date.
There is no bill before the legisla-
ture changing the season, nor have
changes been suggested. The exist
ing law will govern we are informed
from ST. Paul and the season for
taking pike, pickerel, muskelonge and
perch opens May Is in all sections of
the state.
Persons serving sentences in penal
institutions do not lose their citizen
ship, contrary to the general opinion,
says the U. 8. Naturalization Examin-
er, Geo. DanielSon. They do how
ever, lose the right to vote or to hold
Office, explained Mr.. Danielson and
it takes special order from the
president or governor to restore them
In distinguishing between citizen
ship and the right to vote, Mr.. DAN
ielson said: ''They use the word citi-
zenship in loose sense. Citizenship
means allegiance. 1t does not mean
the right to vote or hold office. OF
