Some of the reasons why reform move
ment is necessary in Michigan have been
given TO the public by State Senator John
Z, Cook, in letter TO his constituents.
He says he entered the last Legislature be-
lieying that the party pledges of reform
were sincere, but he began to doubt the
zeal of members in that direction when he
saw railroad passes circulating as freely as
bills of fare at the public tables, and ac-
cepted as a matter of course by the law
makers. When he proposed any measure
Of retrenchment they promptly voted it
down. Hetried on three occasions, by the
introduction of resolutions, to get from the
State Treasurer the name of the banks in
which the balance of State funds, then
amounting to 81 POS, S94, was deposited, but
each time in vain. An attempt was also
made in the Lower House, but with no
better result. The conclusion which Mr..
Cook reached on the subject he thus sets
forth 1t must be perfectly evident to
every rejecting man that the State Treas
ury OF Michigan is surrounded and con-
trolled by ring of bankers and moneyed
men whose influence is in favor of extrava-
gance in the management OF State affairs
who favor high taxes for the purpose OF
keeping large balance in the Treasury,
that they may use it in their private bust.
ness as capital This Treasury influence
Is all powerful throughout the State. 1t is
especially seen and felt TO be such at the
capital, where no man holding position il
the dominant party dares to utter his sen
nments IN regard to these outrages upor
the taxpayers of the State"

vents almost as numerous as those of the
Sisters of Charity, and considerably over
300 members. They are to be found in
New York, the New England dioceses, AL
bany, Philadelphia, Louisville, Pittsburgh,
most of the old dioceses, and many of the
newer ones.

anti-monopolists, it is said, have a good
prospect of carrying the State, and

fight, however, will be on members of the
Legislature, who will choose a United States
Senator in place of Ramsey. The only
two candidates named are Mr.. Ramsey
and Governor Davis, with the chances
in favor Of the latter. Governor
Davis is the opponent Of the caucus sys

The exception to Mr.. Holcombe's re-
marks is not fair. He spoke of the num-
Der of actual saloons, openly kept. Ban
gor has none of these nion.
THE ARGUS did not say that there were
any open saloons in Bangor-it repeated
bio Lew's's evidence that there are 300
places there where liquor is sold. 1t is
said that there are 800 open and public
drinking places in Davenport, in defiance
Of their Iowa prohibitory law-and public
opinion sustains them.
Mr.. Holcombe's statement that this
city is distinguished above others for the
number of its saloons is a statement
wholly unwarranted by the facts and is a
SANDER upon the town. What there is un-
fair in exposing it is more than we are able

such statements to be published without
exposing them. The Union has no word
