measures which might be dictated by
the caucus or the state central commit
tee. Later on il was developed that
among these measures are the gerry
Wandering bills affecting the congress
sional and legislative districts, and the
outrageous Miner bill providing for
the election of Presidential electors by
congressional districts. Then IL was
decided that the Democrats of both
houses should stand together for the
enactment of all these measures, but
that none of them should be put
through until after the election which
will occur on April 6. The 7ribune's
report of the proceedings of the caucus
are perfectly accurate and reliable,
both as To substance and detail, and
there is no longer doubt of the Demo
cratic purpose to complete the over
throw of government 10y the people in
Michigan, work that it began in the
state senate on Feb. pa.
This brings the Republicans of
Michigan face To face with question
of vital significance to the Republican
party Will they permit these Demo
cratic purposes, plainly set forth in the
words of the participants in last nights
caucus and clearly subversive of popu-
lar government in Michigan and of
overwhelming effect upon the future of
Michigan Republicanism, To 90 unre-
buked at the pollsY Will they stand 10y
and see the ground swept from under
them without protest, or will they rally
to the polls one week from Monday
next in the full power and might of the
great organization that has governed
Michigan for generation and admin
ister such rebuke to partisan rascality
as shall disconcert and paralyze ity
Will they permit the election 10 the
supreme bench of Democratic candi
date who has already preiudged the
case of the people of Michigan versus
the whole pack of Democratic thieves,
or will they elect by a rousing majority
a justice pledged only to give fair
and impartial hearing to every particle
of evidence that may be produced be-
fore the supreme court affecting the
legality of measures enacted by the
Michigan legislature subsequent to the
cath of February, 1912
"These are inquiries which have been
pertinent at every moment since the
beginning of this campaign. The ac-
ton of the Democratic caucus at Lam
sing last night drives them straight
home to every Republican in Michigan,
and demands answer at the polls on
! April G."

in this state, il is furnished by the pro-

duty devolving upon every loyal MEM

enacted if senators enough can be
