Michigan Councils of Chosen Friends to Vote
on Continuance of. Their Jurisdiction.

At the meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Supreme Council of the Order of
Chosen Friends yesterday a great deal of
business was transacted. The orders diff
ferences in Michigan were discussed at
length, and it was the intention to begin
the trial of Grand Recorder f. +. Lamb
and Grand Marshal w. II. Andrews, who
are charged with insubordination, in that
Jurisdiction, but the cases were continued.
Both men were present. but they stated
that they had not been allowed sufficient
time in which to prepare for trial.
Before the committee adjourned it adopted
q series of resolutions expressing the senti-
ments of the supreme Official6 upon the
Michigan trouble. The action of the exec
utive committee Of this order in that State
in disseminating matter alleged to be in
furious to the welfare of the organization
was severely condemned. 1t was thought,
however, that some steps toward bringing
the discontinued members back into the
fold might be advisable. 1nsomuch as it
appears hat there i3a large number of SUBJ
ordinate councils and members of the order
i'll Michigan who are still true and loyal to
the order to whom no Injustice should be
done. it was decided that such members
shall be allowed to vote in their respective
councils, expressing their wish as to the
further continuance of q Grand Council in
that State. If q majority of the pembers
vote i'm favor of retaining the Crane COun-
Gil, the supreme councillor shall take the
necessary steps for its reorganization. If
a majority vote against it, the suspension
is to be continued indefinitely.

WANTS A BOUNTY FOR FLOUR.

j. Isaac Hollingsworth has mailed to the
farmers of this State circular letters dated

until 10000, coo of barrels of flour shall have

sum of $40, OOO, 600 be appropriated for that
purpose. A blank form of petition accom-
panies each letter. which petition is to be
circulated among the farmers untilaIl the

RICH FIELD FOR INVESTIGATION.
MI. Chambers Suggests How One Concerning
His Office Can Be Made Complete.

1t Is reported that Congressman Bynum
is to introduce a resolution in Congress
ofderlng an investigation of District At
.orney Chambers's action relative to Leon
Daiiey's attempt to harass Colonel Dudley
oh MS recent visit to this city. 1t is be-
heved that Bynum is to act in this matter
at the suggestion of Bailey, but how the
TWO dropped their hostility to each other,
even TO act together ina affair of partisan
persecution. is not easily understood. But
an investigation will be readily assisted by
VIZ. chambers. Lest Bynum and Bailey
might regard him as being u%nfriendly to
anything of the kind, he has sent to By
num a letter in which the following oc-
Inc press brings the suggestion, apparently
ma.h authority, that you purpose introducing q
..pe once OF United States district attorney for
sne district OF Indiana. during the period of my
anounoency. l wish 10 express my hearty con-
trpa.ence IN the suggestion, and to assure you
snae every facility cOnsOnant with my official
pointed.
IT is a matter of public notoriety that
lot months before L entered upon the
duties Of this office its conduct was a
euoject OF general criticism. 1t has been openly
ana persistently charged that the Office was
prostituted to the purposes of political persecu-
uoh' mat the State of Indiana was hunted
tnroughout for witnesses To testify as to the
pohtical conduct of men against whom no
charges had been fled: that innumerable indict-
ments were returned against parties without
sunicient evidence to sustain them, and all
against members OF one political party; that
tnuictments having no evidence TO sus-
tam them were purpOsely badly drawn, and
some were returned without ever having been
Ieaa over by the grand jury, having been signed
IN the assistant district attorneys Office, and not
even IN the presence Of the members OF the
grand jury other than the foreman. In short,
that the business of the Office was not only loose
ly but eorruptly conducted. and thus the gov
eminent was put to great expense, individual
rights imposed upon, law violated and justice
outraged.
In view of these charges, publicly made and
widely commented on, and in the interests of pub
ncJustlce, the enquiry ought to be extended 10 cover
the period of these alleged delinquencies.
whether or nor this last suggestion will meet with
your concurrence, ] again express the hope that
you may move in the direction of an inquiry
into the conduct OF the office during my term.
An investigating committee can find a
rich field, 1T is said, if Mr.. Bynum sees fit
TO have 1T empowered to send for persons
and papers relating to the matters which

A Few Words About Books.

Books are growing IN faVOr.
There is more in a book than in any other
piece of art that can be considered. The
more one examines a book the more ingen-
uity and art will be discovered in its
makeup. y1
In the first place. a man of genius wrote it;
a man of poetical instinct conceives the
best way to place his idea before the world;
the publisher must needs be a man of talent
to bring it out in the most attractive dress.
Gifted men are employed to illustrate the
text. Sometimes they are sent OF long
Journeys to see the spots described and make
drawings of them. or, If the work is one OF
imagination. they must follow the authors
fancy and have the talent to produce the
proper illustration. The Bowen-Merrill
Company AVE such a showing of books that
it is safe to say that everything that
is desirable may be found there and
at the lowest prices. All books that other
houses advertise as leaders may be found
on the Bowen Merrill Company's counters.
selling at the lowest prices. and without
any braggadOcia at all about 1T.
No imperfect books are knowingly sold
by the Bowen-Merril Company. Bear that
in mind when purchasing books. If an i'm.
perfect book by any. chance should leave
this house, they ask it to be returned, and
they will return to the publishers. A great
many persons are now buying sets of books
for Christmas gifts. and it is certainly adj
visable that such gifts should be perfect.
English classics In sets are selling well.
Many are attracted by the Bowen-Merrill
Company's display of juveniles. Theirs is
the best line ever brought to this city,
many of them being absolutely works of
art. In fact, everything in the book line
may be found at this great establishment.

terday. They were looking in at fuckers

admiration at whatever it was that met
their gaze. and a little flutter of excite
ment. No wonder! 1t is by far the pretti-
est display of gloves ever seen on the street,
and even a gentleman contemplating q gift
of half a dozen pairs of gloves to a lady
might look and learn. There are long even

is, short gloves for long evenings, and long
gloves for short evenings: ladies', gentle-
mems and cbildren's fur-lined gloves; all
kinds of dress gloves. glove-cases and seal

are IN all the new shades; and. besides this.
there are displayed fine handkerchiefs and
other articles suitable for gifts.
