Supreme Court Declines to Take a Hand
In Ousting Him from Mayoralty.
Lansing. Mich. Feb. 3.-Attorney f.
A. Baker of Detroit has filed in the SUI
preme court an application for an order
requiring the common council of De-
troit to show cause why mandamus
should not issue to compel that body
to order special election for the pur-
pose OF electing a mayor of the city to
succeed Mayor Pingree, who, 1t is al
legged, has vacated the Office of mayor
by accepting the Office of governor. The
application is made upon the relation
of Dewitt II. Moreland of Detroit, who
recently petitioned the city council to
call such special election. The relator
claims that to hold both offices is in
compatible and contrary to the state
constitution and that by accepting the
office of governor Pingree ipso facto
vacated the office of mayor.
The supreme court Tuesday declined to
take up the petition for mandamus to
compel the ousting of Governor Pingree
as mayor Of Detroit excepting as an
appeal from the county court.

Unproductive Black Soils.

The unproductive areas of deep, black
humus soils known as "bogus" lands
occurring in central and northern In
diana, and which in many cases "were
formerly marshes or the bottoms of old
ponds" showed on chemical examina-
tion none of the characteristics usually
assigned as the cause of unproductive-
ness. Experiments on two farms during
four years indicate that the use of kainit
and straw temporarily improved the
drainage and thus increased the pro-
ductiveness of these soils. A system of
drainage which taps the water bearing
gravel underlying the humus soil and
lowers the water level to at least 40
inches by removing the cause Of unpro-
ductiveness insures permanent improve
ment, says III. A. Huston of the Indiana
station.

The essence Of the SO called Camp
bell plan" OF grain farming, which is
just now the fad in the northwest Mis-
sissippi states. is the sowing of grain in
drills and cultivating it. The object, of
course, as in all cultivation, is to con-
serve the moisture by making a mulch
of dry earth. 1t is claimed that by this
means paying grain crops can be assured
over large areas of our country where
the rainfall is deficient in ordinary

The case of the People W.. Woodruff
Parmarlee, charged with the murder of
Julia Curtis at Traverse City last April,
will be argued before the Supreme Court
tomorrow, and Parmarlee, who is now
serving life sentence at Jackson, will in
all probability be granted new trial.
The trial of the case in the circuit
court, which was held in Traverse City,
last June, was in many ways one of the
most remarkable in the history of the
criminal proceedings in Michigan. Julia
Curtis, handsome girl 90 years of age.
left her home on the afternoon of April
22d, and failing to return that evening
her parents became alarmed A search
was instituted which resulted in finding
the girl on the following day, dead, by
the side of a log in the woods. A bottle
partially filled with laudanum was found
by her side, and the post norton exam
nation disclosed the fact that there were
marks upon her throat.
Parmarlee had been paying his atten-
tions to Miss Curtis for some time pre-
vious to her death, and owing to strong
circumstantial evidence he was arrested
on the charge of murder. Public senti-
ment ran high against him, and while
the evidence was quite as strong in favor
of the suicide theory as in that of MUIR
der, the jury brought in verdict of MUIR
der after being out 81 hours. Odell
Chapman, assisted by Turner & Gates,
formerly of Owosso, defended Parmaree
and made magnificent fight for their
client, one that would have proven a
winner if the prejudice had been remov-
ed from the case
If Parmarlee is granted new trial,
change of venue will be asked for.
