ship has been started at Detroit The bOOms
will come and the bO0ms will go, but
Farmer Rich will ''get there just the same"
Bellaire Breeze: Despite the efforts being
made by few to detract from the pOpu-
larity of John Il. Rich as candidate for
governor of Michigan. that gentleman con-
,tiaues to keep step with the music of the
people who want him and is at the front Of
the procession, marching like strong,
hORest man.
Grand Rapids Eagle: John T. Rich has
more elements of strength as gubernatOrial
candidate than any other man mentioned
fOr'the place. 1t is for this reason that he
will, without much doubt, be nominated by
the republican state convention. 1t is for
this reason that he will, without any doubt,
be elected in November If nominated.
Saginaw Courier Herald: 1t is noted that
the rural republican press of the state,
always i'm, close touch with the people, is
practically solid for Honorable John Il.
Rich for governor. No one has anything
but COED words for Mayor Pingree. but Mr.
Rich is considered the most available candi-
date this year.
Lapeer Clarion: The sentiment all over
the state is almost entirely in favor of Hon.
John L. Rich for governor, and so emphatic,
too, thaton is led to fully believe that he
will be nominated on the first ballot. With
such man as Mr., Rich to head the re-
publican hosts there is absolute surety that
Che party will redeem the state this fall.
Other names are mentioned in connection
with the state ticket, who, If nominated
will, in connection with the backbone which
Mr.. Rich will give, make it invincible.
The Muskegon Chronicle says of the re-
cent visit of the Hon. John T. Rich to that
city: During his brief visit here John L.
Rich made fine impression as a man of
sterEng common sense and solid character.
He is plain man, a farmer, and fine rep
resentatiye of his class. He mixes we'll
with the people, is unassuming, cordial and
honest. Such man the people delight to
honor, and it is hardly a matter of doubt
that the people of Michigan have high hon
Ors in store for John Il. Rich in the near
future"
Clinton Republicans: There was never a
period in the history che republican poll
tics in Michigan whep SO much depends
upon the fearlessness and fathfulness of
the local republican press as during the cam
paign now opening. 1t is incorruptible, i'm
constant touch with the people, and voices
their sentiments and cannot be misled,
inundated, bought or draggooned into be-
traying the best interests of the republican
party, and hence Of the people. With
Harrison and Reid as the head of the national
ticket and their representive republican,,
John L. Rich, at the head of the state
ticket, it has pleasant task to promote
their election regardless of the fumings of
bOOdlers and Mugwumps.
