Ex-Gov. Alpheus Felch Passes Away at
Ann Arbor at the Age of 02 Years.
Ex-Gov. Fetch IL Dead.

Ex-Gov. Alpheus Felch passed quietly
away at his home at Ann Arbor after
lengthy illness at the age of 92 years.
Alpheus Felch was born born in 1904
in Limerick, Me-, and came to Michigan
in 1888, settling at Monroe. He at
once took an active part in the public
affairs of the territory. He was chosen
member of the first Legislature in
1895, and was reelected in 1886 and
1887. AS legislator he rendered sig
nal service in laying the foundation for
Michigan's statehood. In 1888 he
served as one of the state bank com
missioners. A brief service as auditor
general in 1912 was followed by his APP
pointment as Judge of the state SUI
preme court. In 1S45 he was elected
governor and served in that position
until he resigned to enter the
U. S. senate March 4, 1S47. His
term closed March 3, 1853. He was
soon after called upon by the President
of the United States to discharge the
duties of most important and delicate
position in adjusting Spanish and Mex
lean land claims in California. His
duties completed he returned
to Michigan in 1856 and made
his home at Ann Ardor. Being
Democrat in politics the as
cendancy of the Republican party in
Michigan relegated Mr. Felch to private
life; he was nominated for governor,
for u. s. senator and twice for judge
of the supreme court, but was defeated
each time. In 1873 he retired from the
active practice of law. In 1877 the
honorary degree of LII. ID. was con-
ferred upon him by the University of
Michigan, and in 1870 he was appointed
Tappan professor of law, which chair
he held for six years His last speech
in public was at the banquet given
him at Ann Arbor by the Washtenaw
bar in September, 1894, in honor of his
Goth birthday. Prominent lawyers
were present from all over this state
and from other states, and the speech
of the occasion was that by Gov. Felch.

Financial advices from Boston de-
clare that the shares of the interna-
tional Buttonhole company have re-
that the company Is now earning more
money than ever before. This seems to
be about the farthest reach, the ulti-
mate grasp of the demoniacal monopo-
list spirit Of this age. When a greedy
trust can lay it's tyrannical grip upon
our very buttonholes it is evident that
we are pretty thoroughly compassed
and possessed by devouring monopoly

organization of a Universal Pants

Almost IN Catastrophe at MuskegOn.

For some time the great stone VIA
duet which spans Ruddimans river, on
