It might be well enough to have a ring in some of. our noses to lead us in the straight barrow way, but the fig leaf would not do much gqod as a substitute for an oyereoat or a suit of clothes. however is not what we started talk- ing about, exactly.

Charles Seeley Says Captain Mercer Im- bosed on the Government. Charles BE. Seeley, who was released from the county jail yesterday upon being pardoned by President Roose- velt, declares that be is soun to go to Washington to show by the records t that Captain Mercer, late agent at the Leech Lake reservation. and T. H. Shevlia of this city, have been guilty of imposing upon the govern- ment, and that his own arrest and in- carceration was Caused by them. Seeley was charged with having set fire to the timber upon three sec- He says in his own behalf, that prior to the time of his arrest a man named This George Nichols had been granted a evntract to cut the. timber upon -the sections referred to and had cut about 1,000,000 feet when stopped by the government inspectors. Certain par- ties paid him $4,000 to reiinquish bis contract. “The balance of the timber upon the land is still standing,” said | “Under the system of super ng the work of cutting this dead and down it was the easiest thing in the world for loggers and lumbermen to ant subject. He always curries with} (fraud the government. him an elaborate display of samples! ot the very finest quality and his p: ces are invaribly right. However it} is unnec ry to elaborate on fact because it is well known to the hundreds of patrons throughout the county whom be has furnished and fitted in years goneby. But it should} be born in mind that there’s a big ad- vantage in dealing with August John- son. He does business right here in goods and cas be found at-any hour of the day. Now don’t you really -see the big advantage in this? . It’s plain enough. .If there is any @issatifac- tion witha garment the patron is enabled to go directly to Johnson and |’ have the defect remidied. ‘This can’t be done with an outsidesconcern. You’ve got to grinand bear, at aud wear it—just as it is—or pay: add tional money to some obher tailor: geta fit. That’s ong ny Jobnson shoul@have, and has got, th lead. Another reason, and one of importance, why Johnson should be the leader is the fact that he has ample storage for suits and overcoat& with which to accomodate his pat- rons if they 1 to lay away their wardrobe fora time. He does this without a cent or extra charge. See the advantage of this. It’s plain. A good suit of clothes or an overcvat is not sife packed away ina trunk or hung up ina hotel or boarding house. Jobnson has extended this favor to a ! first vear of Land Commi “T shall leave for my home at Grand Rapids to-night and ina few days L shall go to Washington and there 1 this shall make it my business to show by the records that Mercer should be court martialed and his companions dealth with occording to law.” Mr. Seeley says that durihg the ner Her- man’s administratiou only dead and down timber was cut, Then the lum- bermen secured a ruling that markers should designate the timber to be cut. He says every lumber camp had a marker employed by the contractor nimmense amount of green tpmber was cut for the reason that ne inspector could not watch 150 men at work upon a large area. Another source of fraud was the Sale of 40-acre tracts. A forty might ve 500,000 feet of timber upon it, | ilalf of this would be dead and the wit would be that the lumbermen Cy Ppaid for 250,000-feet’ and recieved a present of a similar amount of dead and down. When the land was cut over it) was sold by the Jumbermen often for more than they paid for the timber alone. ‘The lumbermen, says Mr. Seeley object to cutting of Gead and down because the proceeds go to the In- diay fund, whereas if they purchase stumpage and are presented with the dead and down timber they are en- abled to make a good profit. Mr. Seeley claints that Indian considerable extent in the past, and| Agent Mercer has allowed timber to in order to cover any possible loss by tire he has recently taken out addi- tional insurance. Johnson: doesn’t send away his orders to be made up. He keeps a larg force of competent men constantly employed and turns the work out of his own house. Save your order till Johnson comes along—he’ll soon be there—and he’ll surprise you with what he can doin the way of goods and prices. One Lie. In the last issue of the Magnet ap- peared a long article on tbe causes leading up to the granting of a new trial for Wm. Ranholph. In that ar- ticle the editor states that Mr. Leary when he was tryirg to “fix” said edi- tor made the statement that the “other paper” had been fixed. As there are but two papers published in Grand Rapids it naturally follows that by the other paper was ment the Herald-Review. Now the party who was trying to do the fixing has been shown upin such an unenviable light that it is a question whether any thinking individual would believe anythiog said fixer said—even under oath—but for fear some one who. did not understand the true invardness of the whole transaction and might place some reliance upon the word of said fixer, we wish to state, that if he did tell Mr, Stevens that we had been fixed in the matter, or even ap- proached on the subject he lied. ‘There it isin good plain English and we stand willing at any time to back up our assertion.
