The staunchest advocate of the sugar
bounty feature of the Mckinley bill was
Hon. James O'Donnell, of Jackson. 1t
was Mr.. ODonnell who first cham
pioned cheap sugar and he made the
first speech on the subject IN the House
of Representatives. When the sugar
schedule was reached during consi-
deration of the measure. by common
consent, Mr.. O'Donnell was the first to
be heard in support of thesugar bounty
clause and he made powerful and
convincing speech that won the ap-
prevail and endorsement of many op-
ponents of the clause. At one time a
modification seemed imminent but he
stoutly championed the original draft
and It was passed. The people of the
country and OF this State in particular
are primarily obligated to James O'Don.

Judgeship Contest.

Judge Montgomery's life has been an
honor TO the profession and IS now
garantee 10 every man who casts bal
lot for hlm.-Livingston County Re-
publican.
The Democracy are anxious to elect
Supreme Court judge who will pro-
nounce their revolutionary acts IN the
state senate constitutional and valid
Three Rivers Tribune.
Judge Montgomery especially is en-.
titled to the earnest recognition OF
every Republican on the shore. He is
a man among us, an able jurist, and
an ornament to the legal fraternity
Whitehall Forum.
Judge Montgomery is one of the alb
lest and purest jurists in Michigan. He
is mentally, physically and morally an
ideal candidate for the Supreme bench, ,
to support whom it is an honor and 4
pleasure. He has all the clements to
awaken Republican enthusiasm.-lonia
sentinel.
1t isn't because the Democrats won't
vote for Champlin that they will fail 10
elect him, but for the simple reason
that they haven't the votes to elect any,
body when the Republicans turn out.
And they are going to turn out this time
in way that will set the Democrats Of
Michigan to thinking very seriously
about the election which will take place
in ls92.-Marquette Mining Journal.
1t will be we'll for voters to recall the
result of the election two years ago,
when Judge Sherwood was beaten in
this county by plurality of over 500
because he conceded in the opinion of
Judge Champlin IN the Marsh case,
denying the right of the people in the
waters, bays. inlets and tributaries of
the great lakes. Judge Champiln, who
wrote the opinion, Is now the nominee
on the Democratic ticket. History
should repeat itself and he should be
beaten worse than Sherwood was
Monroe Commercial.
The position that Judge Champlin oc-
cupies before the people of Michigan
is by no means credltable. Having
taken part in the proceedings of q con-
vention which ratified the most fragrant
violations of law and decency ever
committed by legislative body, he
evidently thought he could do nothing
thereafter that would iniure him in
other peoples estimation or his own.
In this, however, he was mistaken.
Had he repudiated his implied connec-
ton with certain forged letters which
the Democratic committee are distrib-
uting about the State, he might have
shown that there::are depths of degrad-
alton to which he will not follow his
party. By neglecting TO do this he
tacitly acquiesces III the attempted
preparation of fraud. Judge Champ
lin should polish up his own moral:
before he assumes to act as an arbi.
traitor OF other folks conduct.-Bay
