Political CrankineSS.

A meeting was held in Detroit the other
night. at which Mr.. James T. Joy presided
to protest against the sale of liquor on Belle
Isle. Addresses were made by John Akin
son. Robt. Z. Frazer, ID. Bethune Dufiield
and others. CONNIE ing on this meeting.
the Center, prohibition organ at Detroit, says
among other things "Detroit's first anti
beer on Belle Isle meeting has been held:
What has been accomplished. Very much:
simply nothing. 1t was noble thought of
the women to hold the meeting-though in
so doing they plowed with the Detroit Min
isterial Unions heifer. The announced vice
presidents are all men of city note. The
speakers of the evening are of no mean
repute, and stranger could not fail to have
been favorably impressed with what he saw
and heard at the meeting Every lover of
law and order. and every believer in the vice
of the dram shop is glad that il was held.
The park commissioners are thinking new
things to day because of the meeting. By
some excuse or other they will prevent the
sale of beer on the island this season. .Aad
get the meeting IF Tuesday eceaiag ,cas q
Stupendous failure as q means to geaaiae
temperance reform IN Detr0u.'
The Center then goes on with a column of
political diatribe against the men who took
an active part in the meeting, the sum and
substance of all which is that most of them
were republicans, men of prominence in their
party, and, being SUCH they had no moral
right to participate in meeting of this
kind. and that no real good can accrue to
the cause of temperance from the efforts of
men who belong to the republican party.
In other words, no one has any business TO
aid in temperance work unless he is Iden-
tilted with the political party known as The
prohibition party. a party whose leaders
have shown, both by word and deed that
they would prefer that the traffic in intoxi-
eating liquors should become absolutely
free. free to accomplish all the ruin and
devastation possible, unless the same can be
prohibited by their own pet party. The
doctrine preached by the Center is the
height of political crankiness. The editor
of the Center will, we trust, live long enough
TO see that temperance reform in Michigan,
IN the future as in the past will be obtained
through the only party that has ever
gwen genuine aid to the temperance cause.

Cleveland BAY Horses.

This valuable breed of horses is fast grow
ing i'll popularity throughout the West, and
during the last few weeks. some have gone as
far as California.
The Cleveland Bays were originally bred in
the Cleveland district in England where they
have attained larger size than the thorough
bred horse, and. with their larger size, have
also gained III the development of bone, mus
Gle and sinew, combined with superior &C
ton and endurance.
Mr.. Youatt, the well known English
authority on horses, says of the Cleveland
Bays: They will support a continuance of
fatigue, and have been known TO travel the
extraordinary distance of sixty or seventy
miles within twenty four hours, with heavy
loads, three or four times week, besides be-
ing employed during the intermediate days.
There is, indeed, no better animal for farm
labor, and the mares are the best specimens
of stock for the double purpose of work and
breeding
The average size of the Cleveland Bay is
from 16 to II hands high, with weight of
from 1,200 to 100 pounds. While they are
admirably adapted both for the plow and
carriage, they are full of life and energy. of
strong build, having short backs, strong
loin and quarters, excellent feet and clean
flat bone of the best quality.
Perhaps the best type of pure character

grand top, crest and noble head. make him
all that can be desired.
He is altogether wonderful amalgama-
ton of the two qualifications most needful
in horse for western use, for he combines
great stength, and endurance with quick,
energetic, action and sprightly gait. This
horse is to make the season in Michigan,
and will at once take the fancy of all who
see him, while the good opinion his appear
ance calls forth, will be more than corroborat-
ed by the excellence of his progeny, az this
breed of horses reproduce their characteris-

States district court for the western district

Diego, California, of heart disease. His wife

for burial. The deceased jurist was sIxty-six
years old, and was born at st. Adams
VT, April 2lst, 1920. He had held the Office
he occupied for twenty-five consecutive
years, having been appointed in 1868 by
President Lincoln. He had won an enviable
reputation as an able, just and upright
Judge. and possessed the confidence of his
legal brethren as well as that of the people
at large. He was member of Congrega.
tional church, to which he contributed
largely both of his time and his means.

Double Vision.

Modern experience proves the verisi-
Multitude OF ancient fable. Pentheus,
il is related, so earnestly desired to pry
into the mysteries of Bacchus' sacrifice
that he climbed tree. Instantly he
was struck with phrensy, an afilictioh
which caused him to see things double.
To place the stern heel of modern an
alysis upon this fable, would. it seems,
render it laughably absurd, but actu-
al investigation shows that the ia
balist" has observed close relation tc
actual life. Many q man, hanging
around Bacchus, has been afflicted with
double vision. There are times when
the Bacchus hanger-around has 10 put
his paw over one eye in order to deter
mine which street car he should take.
He sees double. When he goes home
two women open the door for him. He
hears but one voice, but the movement
of many lips, proves that more than
one mouth speaketh. The yourg man
should not attempt 10 ply into the af-
fairs of Bacchus, for double vision shall
surely await him. OF all the gods who
occupied prominent places in the hot
house OF mythology. Bacchus is the
most truthful. he say: Gentlemen,
if you fool with me you shall see
double" Who can dispute him? No
man can say: "Bacchus, thou lest

Knights Of Labor and Strikes

The folly of resorting to the strike on
slight provocation has been forcibly and ex-
pensively demonstrated during the past
few weeks. The business of the country
has been retarded and injured, capital has
suffered, the people have been inconven-
fenced, and worse than all else has been the
loss and damage inflicted on the laborine
men themselves who can least afford to be
deprived of the means of earning their
daily bread. To them, the loss Of an oppor-
tunity to labor, means suffering and priva-
ton, both for themselves and their families.
Capital can live for a time without work,
labor cannot.

IN the eyes of the strikers and boycotters,
the convenience of the public, the commerce
and prosperity of the country, the legal
rights of the people, are all of little or no
consequence compared with the enormous
iniquity of allowing men who do not belong
TO trades-union to earn a livelihood by
honest toll.

THE greatest display of pure and unadul-
terated gall that has come TO our notice is
manifested by the New York street-car strikers
when they threaten to bring suit against the
companies for violation of their charters in
not running their cars regularly, after the
strikers themselves have, by their site up
rendered it impossible for the companies to
carry on their business.

during the war of the rebellion. If the Free
Press is correct at the present time it was
not true exponent of northern democracy

Father, Mother, ,nd Three Sisters Dead.

Mr.. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant
alarms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., n. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungs were so weak raised blood. Nobody
thought / could live. Ny work tship-
smithing)w was very straining on NE with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition |
commenced using Mishler's Herb Filters,
and it saved my life. Because it was SO
difficult to get it in this little place, and ]
had improved so much, stopped taking it
for time, and the result is that | have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds me up
as nothing else does, and l must have
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please, and If any one wants
to be convinced Of its truth, let them write
me and / will make affidavit to ii, for |

Thesecret of the almost invariable relief
and cure Of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhma, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
