DETROIT, April 3-To-day's elections
| In Michigan have not shown any marked
change in the general political complexion
of the State. which is normally Republi-
can, but the result shows quite heavy
Democratic gains in some of the larger
cities. notably in Detroit, Grand Rapids,
Saginaw, Jackson, and Kalamazoo. on a
generally light vote the Republicans hold
their own in the smaller cities and
throughout the rural districts.
Circuit judges were elected in thirty-six
judicial districts. About twO-thrds Of the
new judges, who are elected for six-year-
terms, are Republicans. The Republicans
elected Justice Claudius T.. Grant as JUS
tice Of the Supreme Court. by majority
of at least 10000 They also elected Henry
S. Dean and Eli r. Sutton to be regents
of Michigan University, by somewhat
greater majorties.
REPUBLICAN FAILING OFF.
Thomas T.. Barkworth, Democratic cam
didate for Justice, ran nearly G,OOO ahead
Of Judge Grant in Wayne county DE
troiO. and Grant received only 1,0oo plu-
rality in Kent county Grand Rapids.
which in recent years has shown much
heavier Republican majorities.
The contest over circuit judges In De-
troit was extensively split up, and result
ed In the election Of three Democrats
George $. Hosmer Henry A. Harmon,
and James H. Pounds-while two Republi-
cans were re-elected-W. J.. Carpenter ana
Joseph w. Donovan. IT is possible that
the official count may defeat Pounds and
re-elect Judge Robert +. Fraser Republi-
cam.
DEMOCRATS WIN EASILY.
The Democratic candidates for judges
of the Detroit Recorders Court won
easily, Alfred J. Murphy being elected by
a majority of 100 votes and Judge Pelan
beating Henry Mandell by over 1900.
The Republicans won in most OF the
school-inspector contests: Local and per-
sonal issues played the usual conspicuous
part in the spring elections throughout
the state but the Republicans were gene
rally successful i'm the townships and
smaller cities; in several cases by In
creased majorities on light vote.

BAD BOYS MADE GOOD.
ISioux CITY Tribune.l


With no high stone walls or iron
bars to confine them. no suits of gaudy
stripes, with no shaving of the scalp,
trial school at Eldora work as broth
ers In one large family to make a record
that will lead to their discharge.
Humane Officer Freeland, re-
turned Saturday night from trip to
the institution. where he placed Henry
Brubaker. Sioux City's youngest crimi-
nal, to remain therein till he shall reach
his 21st year. He Is now 49, Humane
Officer Vreeland states that the general
impression that the Industrial school lie
a place Of cruel punishment and of hard
work is erroneous. The school is very
greatly Improved over the old reform
school, so-called. 1t is discipline or a
determined system of conduct that
takes the kinks out of the boys. When
their department is low in percentage
1T means that they must stay at the
home that much longer and work and
be denied the privilege of the world as
they enjoyed 1t at their own home.
There are twelve grades that the boys
must pass before they are released.
Every day record of their department
is taken and at the end of the month
their percentages are entered. To gain
one grade it is necessary to get 100 in
department in a month. Very few of
the boys get these per cents, and espe-
cially in the beginning, because they are
as general thing the meanest boys in
the state when they are sent there and
only sent as a last resort.
But 1t is remarkable" said Humane
Officer Vreeland, in speaking OF the
boys. 'ilow willing they seem right
from the beginning to make records for
themselves. Little Brubaker. the lad ]
took there, when / explained the place
to him, said he was going to beat all of
the boys infhis good behavior. 1t seems
that boys environments are every
thing. AT the homes Of most of the
lads who are sent there, there is no in
centive to be good. There is nothing
attractive, cheerful or encouraging
about their home, and they lose that
Instructive ambition in life and go from
bad to worse. At the industrial home
the boys soon learn how strictly they
must carry themselves and the guardi-
ans gain their respect by encouraging
them. placing confidence in them and
Imposing responsibilities that every
true American boy will try to discharge
with credit to himself. Their surround
ings are made pleasant and the ten
dency Is soon changed from bad to
good
Chief Of Police Dishonesty sent HUI
name Officer vreeland to Eldora with
the Brubaker boy because he wanted
this officer to look through the institu-
ton and understand its workings. The
