TIE Republican party of Michigan

The Republican party OF Michigan
has something OF far more Importance
than the mere nomination OF candidates
70 consider, IN connection with the
spring election. The Republican esprit
du corps must in some way be revived, or
the nomination OF the greatest jurist IN
the State for Supreme Court justice will
fall fat. The Republican party offered
the State last fall candidate Tor that
high honor a man. far superior in at
tainments. ability and personal charac-
ter to the Democratic candidate, and
yet the people-or that part who cared
to vote-huried him deep beneath an
adverse majority. Spring elections
have not been favorable TO big Republi-
can majorities, and present prospects
do not indicate any violent departure
from the general rule. What can be
done to revive interest in the party
That IS the question which Republicans
must face. Selfish schemes for personal
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT must be frowned down.
No man should be nominated merely
because be wants the nomination and
has drummed his friends and his
friends friends together to get MIN the
place.

CANFrELp, the stranger of Nellie
Griffin, at Dimondale, was sentenced
to imprisonment for life in less than
twenty-four hours after he was appre-
hended. He was doubtless glad to find
shelter behind the prison walls. The
detection, arrest and removal to jail
were too quickly done to give the ex-
cited people any opportunity to wreak
vengeance upon HIM. In fact many
were slow TO believe him guilty, SO good
a name had he borne in the neighbor-
hood. The speedy punishment in this
case is gratifying, but must not be
taken as commedatory of our criminal
system. Had he had money and a
bulldog determination to fight, with
the good reputation he had, 1t might
have taken long, tedious trial to con-
denim HIM.

If prophecy had been rash enough,
fifty years ago, 10 fortell the mental
activity of ''the common people" IN the
last years of this century, its testimony
would have found few believers. A
glance over the list of the subjects now
engaging the attention of the working
men in convention assembled, indicates
that vast amount of serious thinking
is going on in the brains of the class
who, in other days, were not supposed
to be capable of thought. The glory of
other days lies in what was done by
their intellectual aristocracy. The
glory Of these days lies in what is doing
by our intellectual democracy. The
laboring men are talking bravely on a
range of subjects stretching all the way
from woman suffrage on the one hand.
to the sanitary regulation of home life
on the other. In other centuries, such
a range of subjects would have made
sick an eccumenical council.
