SATURDAY. APKIL 23. 177.
RAIL MO AD P1COSPF.CTS.
The friends ot the Alpena nBrwsi bib
have tesfetl their strength in the Legis
lature, and the bil! will doubtless go
Where the one ct 1374 went. The bill
eaine up in regular order on the 18th.
and alter I few hours spent In discnisloii,
it e;ime to a vote, mid w:ts lost, the bal
lot standing 43 Bftjn to 42 yens. The
passage uf the bill requJriag a two
thirds vote of the m iiJi rs elect i o car
ry, which s b', it Is vain to -'.ppoe th i!
they can Ik! o'ta:n;-d, so that DOtWttfc
stamlirig that Jie vote was iinineH r.ly
pe-consh!ered. and tbo bil! laid upon the
table, there is hardly a el a nee of its ulti
mate passage. Its friend, however, may
change it so as to call fa les tnpopint
oriandanda narrow yme road, and
brin it up again in a short time and try
to pts itin that sh pc. T::e vote, r.s i
stool, was a great surprise to Mr. KeUey,
of Alpena, who had tl.e bill in eturge,
and to the many lobyisfs had he-,
work'ng hard ail viator to secure On
land graut lor the road. The Ami ot the
matter was as vras stated la the Tut : xic
when the bill was first introduced, ih;.:
it could not be shown tha: the road was
one which would ben-lit, the state at
lar'e. There Is no doubt that it would
be a great tdraotags to th immidiate
locality where the road terminates and
the points through .vhich it Mm, but
outside ot Lfcfe ;he state would recrlvc
very little benefit rem ;t. The feeling
of the people of the state Is, and thci
repraentative .n the Lais!atur3 are
controlled by that tfieUmg, that lands
should not be granted to railroad enter
prises except when such railroads would
be ol'a state benetlt. This is the case
With the norlh peninsular appropria
tion for the Mackinaw & Marp:ette rail
road. The construction of this road
would benefit the entire state. Millions
of doliuis worth of pio luco is yearlv
shipped from Wisconsin to the northern
peninsula to support the mining popula
tion there. It would he seufc from Minn.
igau if th. re Wm a railroad. The upper
portion of the southern peninsular,
where there arc millions of mum of the
best wood land, would soon have iron
furnaces scuh-redov.-r ir, and the state
at large would receive immense benelits.
lo, leh roads us this, thestate will be
willing ro make appropriations of lands.
Th grant asked for for an extension of a
road to Cheboygan, comes under this
Mm. It is a part of the same plan, and
hould receive the same support, and
would if the people and representative
all understood the matter as it redly is.
Whether it will or not, eannofbe deter
mined as yet. We know that" this bill
had manyYriends on the grounds named
that the Alpena railroad bill did not have,
and we anticipate a larger vote in its fa
vor than that received, and we trust ir
wiil get the toeaMt two-thirds vote.
VESSEL, IS -EliESTS.
The indications now are that the ves
sel interests J which have for the years
since the panic been in such a depressed
state, wiil. during the present season, re
vive somewhat. It is'not expected that
the improvement will be very marked
or rapid, but the bottom has been reach
ed, and that vessel owners will now com
mence to receive remuneration from
their property. The past years have been
so disantrous to vessel interestsjthat very
km repairs have been made upon them
none which could possibly be avoided.
The result is that the lake vessels as a
thm are in poor condition, needing very
extensive repairs. These they will re
ceive so soon as the business will war. ant
any such expenditure. Close upon the
improvement of the vessel interests come.
n revival of the ship building Interests
One b dependent r.pon the other. The
dry docks upon the lakes aie anticipating
a large increase of business during the
prosent year, and are making their ar
rangeu'ents accordingly. Taking all
these facts into consideration, would i:
not now be a good time feroaf citizens
to take some action toward securing a
dry dock at this place I Whenever vessel
interests revive the dry docks wdl all he
crowded to their utmost capaciry. As
soon as there is a prospect tor business, it
would not be dillicnlt thing to secure a
dock here. Everything which has any
bearing upon this should be carefullv
w.i ciit-d. and whenever the - signs are fa
vorable" the blow should be struck
which would secure to Cheboygan this
important enterprise.
The New Oi leans Democrat has a col
urnn of scandalous abuse of the northern
Methodists. This is a sample sentence:
' OKI Praise God-Barebones, of the Cfoin
vvellian epoch, vvms a broad and liberal
Christian by compari-ou with these
North IfetlMMlitt ranters, who have been
fourteen years trying 10 obtain control
ot" the government, and whose religion
consists in a bastard m xiure of the
words of Christ With the meditations ot
the thieves between whom he was cruci
fied." The Democrat is the organ of
V s in I.'" isina. This indicates
the spirit in which those fellows want to
be conciliated.

Charles Fraxpis Adams pubises

The anti-Mormon element in Utah
propose an amendment to the act of Con

that "no person living in the practice of

shall be by secret ballot." The mass
meeting at Salt Lake City at which this
measure was proposed, has already been
noticed, but the agitation still continues,
and this newaggie-sive movement is very
popular. The proposed amendment
disfranchising those who continue in po
lygamy, would, it is claimed, work out a
speedy and thorough reform, and avoid
many complications.

THE LIEU LAW.
A Wattot cf Great Interest to Lumbermen-
Provisions of tlte Bill Amend
lug the L.icn L.a.w.
An examination of th text of the bill
now pending in the State Legislature to
amend the lieu laws a relating to logs
and lumber, shows that in one respect at
h'ast, il is a very important measure. The
first !-ection provides that any person or
person that may pet form any labor r
services in tailing, cutting, hauling, bank
ing, driving or running any logs
timber, (or staves) in this state, (or shall
jfire aid in performance of such labor or
off services, by furnishing, hauling or
c oking any provisions or supplies that
may I p used to aid in the performance f
any labor or service III falling, catling,
hauling, banking, driving or running
any logs, timber or staves a fores iid) shall
have a lien thereon, (Of the amount duo
for such labor or services and the same
shall take pMcedence iff all other claims
thereon : Provided, That when such aid,
labor or services performed lor any con
tra. tor, sub contractor or jobh r, I e
united amounts due toy such aid, lab r
or service, together with the cos's in
curred in enforcing such lien, shall re
main a lien on such logs, timber or
staves, the amonntof such lien and eots
shall not exceed the contract price tor
falling, culling, hauling, banking, driv
tna apd running such logs, timber or
stwes, and all amounts paid in liquid -tiou
of such hen shall apply in payment
on ihe coutracr. bet ween the owner of
such logs, timber or staves, and such
contract, sub contractor or jobber.
The second s ct ion provide that the
pet'tiou shall e: forth tne nature of fwh
demand or claim and the fourth section
shows the manner of proceed lire Under
the act. Bur tin- uio?r import int point
is contained in h eventh section, wnieb,
aaraaX other things, pwv uea that a i 'x
ecuiiou baaed upon a ji'dgi ment. n'cov
erei under the provisions of the act may
he leviel upon the logs, timber (or stives)
or other property of the owner or owner.
Off tao property of the e nnractor, BUh
contnetor or Jobber for whom said work
or service weie. performed or aid giv;n.
It is t weil known faat that onalranli
are entered into between lumbermen
and jobbers which stipulate that th
ovym r of I he pine shall faTuh avlj sup
plier necessary for ihe prosecution of the
work, or mahe advance payment for the
purpose of enabling the jobber to nihil
It's part of the coniraet. In this wav it
of en happens that by the time the logs
are ready for the delivery very little re
mains of the contract price imp id. an 1
should the jobber so will the owner of
the iogl miirhf. he made to pay the out
standing indebtedness ol the jobber, Un
oer tiie provision above quoted the ov n
er of the logs would have no redress
whatever, as an execution lonld not only
he Je led upon tbe logs, but on any eta
property of the (Aimer or owners, in caae
i he coutiactor was not responsible for
he labor bill. This feature (,t the hi 1 i
a very important one to lumbermen, and
pJlOUld receive attention at their ban's,
as ir- passage has been recommended by
the QnaiM commit I ae on the Judiciary.
