Peter L. Riker, candidate for senator
on the free silver ticket, is opposed to
the Atkinson bill. One of his opposi-
tons to it is that Governor Pingree will
have the appointment of committee of
four of his pets to act as the board of
assessors. In reply we copy portion OF
the bill regulating this objection:
"SEcrIoN l. The People of the State
of Michigan enact, That there shall be
elected at the general election to be held
in the year 1898, two resident electors of
this State who, with the Auditor Gen
eral, shall constitute State Board of
Assessors. The persons SO to be elected
shall serve one for the term of two
years and the other for the term of -four
years, from and after the first day of
January, 1899, at which time they shall
enter upon the duties of their office.

The following is the 9th plank in the
Republican state platform: Do you find
anything of the like in the three ring
parties? Who can find any fault with
it? 1--WE commend the present State
administration for its earnest efforts in
favor of the equal and just taxation of
the property of railroad, telegraph, tele-
phone and express companies. We favor
the immediate repeal of the tax upon
the gross earnings of railroad companies
and favor tax to be levied upon the
true value OF railroad, telephone and ex.
press companies property, this value to
be determined by a state board. The
taxes collected therefrom shall be paid

Voter You cannot vote for every
member of congress, but you can vote
for one. And in the eleventh congress
sional district of Michigan you can vote
for congressman who has been tried
and not found wanting. Hon. w. 5.
Mesick of Mancelona is lawyer, q
scholar, a friend of soldier, a sympa.
thetic helper Of all interests agricul-
tural, industrial and commerical-of his
district And he is a Republican, right
on the topics which demand the atten-
ton of the nation. His record during
his first term is a safe guarantee for his
second. 1t is too manifest TO require
argument that to sustain the admins
tration of President Mckinley, a Repub.
lican congress must be elected. The
national purposes which find their high
est incarnation in the chief magistrate
must be substantially expressed by con.
gress also. The post-bellum congress
will have mighty problems to solve, and
1t may be of interest to some of the
old soldiers of Gratiot county that Hon.
w s. Mesick, our candidate for con-
gress, has got over 800 pensions through
since July lst, 1898, more than any
Michigan congressman Is he an able
man: Does he look out for your inter.
est? He is friend of the soldier and
will receive the support of the boys in
the 18th district.

Big Meeting at Ithaca.

An enthusiastic meeting was held at
Ithaca last Monday Afternoon when ad.
dresses by Congressman Mesick and
Senator Burrows were listened to. The
crowd was large and very enthusiastic.
Mr.. Mesicks clear and earnest talk
created favorable impression and con-
vinced the audience that he was the
right kind Of timber for a congressman
TO represent the eleventh district He
demolished the folly of the Is to ism,
and impressed the people that equal
taxation was of vastly more interest TO
them now, than any other matter before
them for settlement. The speaker clear
ly showed that the government could
not create money by legislation; if it
could there would be no necessity for
taxing the people TO defray the expenses
of the nation. For thirty minutes the
speaker clearly, concisely, and forcibly
set forth the doctrines and glories Of the
greatest party of the ages.
In few well chosen words, chairman
]. n. Mccall then introduced the Hon.
julius Caesar Burrows, Michigan's
junior u. S. Senator, and for almost
two hours the dist nguished orator, in
his inimitable way explained to the au-
dience the problems now before the ma
tional congress. He pleaded for the
sustaining Of the policy as inaugurated
by the present administration. He
spoke of the folly of voting for the free
silver when no possible good or adj
vantage could be gained in that direc-
ton for at least two years to come. He
showed how the Republican party had
kept its promises as laid down in the St.
Louis platform. He compared the pres
ent condition of the country with that
of four years ago. He spoke of the Wig.
orous foreign policy of the administra.
ton; and warned the people of the grav-
ity and danger of the present situation

AT each subsequent general election
held in November, one member of said

sisting of the Attorney General, Audi.

The commission appointed by the

witnesses to designate officials by name

the first witness, and his testimony was
an exhonoration Of all in official author
