it was an elopement, and particulars
were only brought to light by the ar
rival of the girls mother at the police
station about 1f:30 last night, hunting
for some trace of her daughter
According to her story she left her
domicile at 625 New High street about

Ruby at the time being out on the back
porch. Her lover must have been close
at hand, for no sooner had the mothers s
back been turned than he joined his

$1,000 to $4,000 per month before the
reciprocity treaties were made, about

the treaties were In force, and that
since the repeal OF the treaties they
have fallen from $4,000 to $4,000 per

The enormous importations under
the Wilson law, for which we had to
pay gold, necessarily d unfinished the
exports of the United States. Our
chief reliance In our foreign trade Is
to export our products, mainly agri-
cultural, In sufficient quantity or
more to pay for our imports, so that
the balance of trade shall be in our
favor. Under the Wilson law we
exported In year agricultural pro-
ducts valued At 1901 ,578, 1856, while
during the las: year Of the Mckinley
law we exported similar productions
valued at 1911, i25, 800. 1t will thus
be seen that under the Mckinley law
we exported more, and under the
other law less the difference amount
ing to about So, $1,000. Therefore,
the balance of trade ne :essarily turns

alysis Of these two laws further, but

Of our monetary system. The Wilson
law has produced deficiency every

Recent investigation relative to
state tax rates show that only four of
the forty-eight states and territories
of the entire United States had a
lower tax rate than Michigan levied
last year. And no other state In the
Union secures better value for every
dollar appropriated and expended
than does our own state. Michigan's
public institutions are equaled by the
institutions or but one or two other
states in the entire country, and sur
passed by none. Such are the facts
disclosed by an intelligent investi-
cation of comparative state tax rates
to which our Democratic friends have
been recently directing attention. =
