The county commissioners were here
Tuesday and are considering the mat
ter of having convict suits for
inmates of Kennebec county Jail. They
think it would be less expensive and of ad-
vantage in several ways. The system has
been adopted in other county jails with
success. 1t would lend q new terror to
Jail life and would save buying
new suits for those who were
released and had no suit. Its greatest a1-
vantage however would be in the difficulty
it would throw in the way of escape. Every
new man would be relieved of his suit,
which would be laid away till his time was
served. The commissioners will investi-
gate the matter little more before taking
any definite steps.

nor taken any steps or expressed their will
ingness, to have a committee of three dis
interested men make an estimate of the
loss. The total amount of insurance car
lied was $500 and this was divided among

Should Eat Hay.

The Press, weekly and weakly, devotes
Its time to arguing that the rural element OF
this county is to be greatly benefited by
theremoval of the duty on hay, potatoes,
wool, and in fact, all the productions of the
farm. More recently the fact that hay has
been one Of the staple articles that has
brought money to the farmer seems sufficient
reason for the Press to argue the removal of
this particular duty, probably moved by fear
that the farmer may become bIoated bond
holder or have chance to lquidate his OBJ
legations. There may be other reasons for
this and perhaps there are, such as the
cuckoo, as Senator Morgan describes the
Cleveland patronage worshippers. 1t does
seem scarcely worth while for any notice
beng taken of statement showing the
price Of hay to be more in Toronto than In
Ow0ss0, and from that conclude that no ben
eft Is derived from tariff. 1t would be
perfectly competent to compare the price
~ Toronto with that OF Boston and then
prove that the tariff was beneficial. We do

error (substituting the word four for one) is
to be detected and that in a motion which

right here that no man in this state is as
strong as plain, Straightforward platform
will be- The Republicans are as certain to
carry Michigan by from $4,000 to $4,000
next fall as that election day shall come.
We only need to renominate our present
officers, as far rs possible, to take our stand
again where our party stood when the dis
astrous wave of Democratic victory swept
over our state and country. to hold fast to
the principles we have always defended
and to point to the past as our promises for
the future"

candidatef"
IL have not the slightest ill-will towards
Mr.. Pingree Of Detroit. He has persist
ense l admire and frankness which wins
admirers. But to introduce his personality
into the coming state campaign would be
deplorable mistake. We went no mans
personality to help or hurt us IN the cam
paign. We only need that our candidate
shall be competent and worthy, as our pres
ent officers elected in 1892 are. The voters
of Michigan will do the rest"
Mr.. Powers continued 81 have heard
the term 'extravagant expenditures used
with reference to our present state admins
tration, but 1t is a meaningless assertion In
view of the facts. Every dollar appropri-
ated by the last Republican legislature was
for purposes which will bear the closest |
scrutiny. But any reference to ill-expendi- |
ture will come with poor grace from the |
representatives of party which, by its |
destructive purposes and policy, has caused |
more loss to many single counties in the |
state than the sum total of every dollar ex-
pended by the last legislature. That state |
ment may sound extravaganza, but it is |
radically conservative and will be proven
when the question Of loss or gain by party |
policies shall be discussed. l hope the |
of Michigan will not permit |
the Democrats to say that we desired to
change issues or to add to our defense the |
personal characteristics Of any individual.
The Republicans of Ohio gave us splendid
example in that respect which l sincerely
hope the Republicans of Michigan will
follow. If we do, the sunset of election day
will have ended in the casting of the great
est Republican majority ever known in
