Smith for Judge.

The hearty applause that greeted the an
nouncement of the name of Judge Smith as
he was called before the republican conven-
ton last Thursday at Corunna, attested the
esteem in which he is held by Shiawassee
county tax payers. He made only brief
address but it was most interesting. Every
eye was upon him. Every ear was intent
on catching the sentiments expressed.
When he referred to his relation to the
people as judge and declared his purpose
to faithfully serve in that capacity If re-
elected every man knew he was listening to
the declaration of man both capable and
honest. Judge Smith is surely the man for
the place and will be re- elected over any
candidate that can be named against him.

The Livingston Republican in speaking
of the nomination of w. P. Van Wrinkle
for circuit judge by the demo silver fusion
lists says: while we have nothing but the
highest words of commentator for Mr..
Van Wrinkle as an honorable citizen and an
able lawyer, he is a thorough, out and out
democratic politician. Born in the demo-
cratic township of Putnam he has never
wandered In his political affillation. He
supports the whole Chicago conglom.
GRAFTON, free trade, free silver, hostility to
the supreme court and all. Mr.. Van
Wrinkle would, doubtless, feel insulted IL he
should be accused of ever having even
thought Of voting republican ticket. Un-
der the circumstances republicans can be
under no obligation to vote for Mr.. Van
Wrinkle as judge. He never showed any
political favor. He should ask none now.
His only hope of election is In getting re-
publican votes"

The nomination by the President, Mon
day, OF Martin N. Brady for postmaster at
Saginaw, West Side, meets with the heart
lest approval from that gentleman's many
friends in Saginaw and throughout the
eighth congressional district. Mr.. Brady
has served his city as alderman and for
several years has been recognized as one of
the shrewdest and most capable republican
party workers in Saginaw During the
last campaign, from the time when candi-
dates were beginning to be discussed until
the returns we're in on election night, he
worked necessarily for Mr.. FordDey's in
terests and generated the most strikipgly
successful campaign ever conducted In the
eighth district. Pleasant and affable, yet
modest and unassumiDg, and ali of the time
hustler ana hard political worker, his ap-
pointment is giving the best of satisfac-
ton and is credit to Congressman-e elect
F0rdney.

A Perry Man.

County School Commissioner, o. L. Bris-
toll richly merits the unanimous renOmina-
ton of last week. He will receive hand
some vote in this township, for, while his
official duties make Corunna convenient
center for him to work from, old Perry
township is his home. Here he was born
and reared. Here he received his district
and high school education. Here, as prin-
clpal of the MOrrice high school, he did
such excellent work as to commend him to
those who named the successor to Mr..
Dimond. He is known and revered In this
township as most exemplary young man
and a truly capable official. Perry says

The TIMES congratulates the eighth con-
gressional district on the fact that at mid
night tonight 1t will cease to be mis- repre-
sented In congress by Ferdinand Brucker.
The democrats of the district may have
sent men of less brilliancy to congress, they
doubtless have sent men who were less
pleasing speakers than the present repre-
sentative Is, when be tries to be, but they
never before sent q man who 80 utterly
failed to comprehend the dignity Of the high
ONCE to which he was elected or to under
stand the patriotism which actuated the
minds of the mass of citizens In his district.
They never before sent one who could have
20 basely slsndered the chief executive In .
national crisis as did he, nor did they ever
before send one who did less even for his
own district And as some recent events
have brought once more to mind, they
never sent . man of smaller, more petty
meanness Of character than the man on
whose exit at midnight tonight from the
national house of representatives, we con-
graduate the district.

cial convention for ShIawassee and Living
ston, counties, the 35th district, met Tues
day afternoon in the city hall and nominal
ed Mr.. William p. Van Wrinkle, of Howell,
for circuit Judge.
The convention was called to order by
Mr.. T. j. Horsmsn who, after few re-
marks, called Mr.. Daniel j. Gerow before
the convention as Its temporary chairman.
Mr.. A. K. Cole, of Fowlerville, was then
nominated as temporary secretary. and,
after appointing committees on credentials
and permanent organization and order OF
business, the convention was adjourned for
a fifteen minutes recess. The convention
being again called to order the temporary
organization was made permanent and an
informal ballot was taken for candidate for
circuit judge.
The result of the informal ballot showed
that Mr.. VIM. P. Van inkle, of Howell,
had ten votes; Mr.. G. r. Lyon, of Owosso,
six; and Mr.. s. s. Miner, of Owosso, seven.
The formal ballot then gave Mr.. Van
Wrinkle twenty-fou votes and he was de-
clared the choice of the convention. Aside
form the naming of judicial committee on
which Owosso men, Chas. NJ. Hamper and
Geo. b. McCaughna, occupied two of three
places, and q resolution authorizing Mr..
Van Wrinkles name to be placed under
whatever head the state convention at Kali
amazoo should infict on the party, the con-
ventiOn occupied the remainder of the time
In listening to number of speeches. the
most of which had a plaintive, appealing,
and almost hopeless sound like plea
for raising church debt. All the speakers
seemed to realize that they would need
votes and need them badly, though Mr..
Van Wrinkle, who Is to run against the
popular Judge Smith. had the courage to
tell the convention that he expected to be
elected. Other speakers pleaded strongly
for hard wOrk-as though even that would
elect their candidate-and complimented

earnest appeal for IT,
Mr.. Van Wrinkle is pleasant appearing,
middle aged gentleman and lawyer of
considerable ability, and, 1t is said, stands
well with the bar of Livingston county. He
can hardly fail, however, to discover his
mistake in accepting the nomination, even
before the third day of April, and certainly
it will be apparent enough when the votes
are counted on that day.

Possibly Governor Pingree would like to
have another convention called to meet at
jackson Just to spite somebody.

Mondays Argus understands" that
Representative Mason ''offered not a word
in defense of his position on the taxation
question" at the meeting of the County
Association of Farmers Clubs in Corunna
Saturday. Well, why should he have done
so? His position was not criticised, and II
the suppostion by the editor of the Argus,
that II was criticised, Is based on the resO-
luton adopted by the association, a glance
at the resolutions as printed In his own
paper of same date should convince him
that 1t was manifestly unfair to cOnstrue
general resolution, affecting representatives
and senators in general, as being aimed
directly at Mr.. Mason. or challenging his
position In any way. The fact is that Mr..
Mason had repeatedly declared that he was
In favor of the best bill for equal taxation
that could be secured and yet, rather than
run the risk of possible failure to secure
the passage of any equal taxation bill, he
should vote for the first one which actually
came before the house lest Its failure would
hazard the passage of better one. The
vote of Tuesday showed the sincerity with
which be took that position. While be-
lieving that far better bill could be pre-
pared, yet when the Cheever-Atkinson bill
came up he voted for 1t rather than vote
against 1t at a time when its defeat might
be regarded as sign of sure defeat for any
equal taxation bill which might be pre-
sented. 1t was In line with his position
which was to secure the best one possible
and THE TIMES congratulates him both on
the gallant fight which he made to secure
something better than the Atkinson bill and
his support of the latter when it became
apparent that better one could not be
passed.
