Republicans Score q Victory ir
Michigan.

Republicans Scored a Victory In
Michigan.
The municipal elections in Mich
igan last Monday resulted in victory
for the republicans. AS Is usual in
a spring election, the vote was very
light all over the state, not more
than half a vote being polled. Both
parties seem to have suffered, but re-
publicans less than their opponents,
as is evident from the fact that Hon.
Joseph Is. Moore, republican candi-
date for Justice of supreme court, is
elected by at least 10000 plurality,
and the republican candidates for
regents of the university by one or
two thousand more.
In the third congressional district,
Mines, republican candidate Tor
member of congress, is elected, his
plurality being about 1000. Todd,
the fusion candidate, cut into the
republican vote to some extent, near
ly resulting in tie in Calhoun
county. Todd carried Kalamazoo
county by 200.
A few of the larger cities in the
state show a slight change politl-
cally. Grand Rapids elects a dem
ocrat mayor, Watkins, republican,
being defeated by about 1900. }.
NJ. Turner won the mayoralty of
Lansing by 900 majority.
The victory of the republican
party in Wayne county is sweeping
and decisive, the board of supervis-
ors standing "a republicans to -
democrats; majority in the county,
1900.
The returns on the amendments
are very incomplete, but SO far as
received indicate that the salaries
amendment is defeated; later returns
may change the figures somewhat,
but not enough to carry the amend
ment.

very enjoyable manner. Twenty'one
members and four visitors were
present. After roll call the ladies'
were invited out on the porch to
have their photos taken. Returning
to the parlors, Mrs. G. A. Davis read
an interesting paper on Walter Scott,
after which each lady was given an
original rebus to solve, the answer
being the name OF some member of
the Club. Dainty refreshments were
then served. This being Mrs. Carey's
last day with the Club, and being a
charter member and always diligent
worker, Mrs. Church, in behalf OF
the Club, presented Mrs. Carey one
dozen sterling silver tea spoons as a
slight token of their esteem.
