Merit Wins.

George b. Reeve, the new manager
of the newly organized Grand Trunk,
which is now known as the Grand
Trunk and Western, was born in Eng
land in 1910. This makes him now GO
years old. He came to America at an
early age. He began at the bottom
and knows what hard work is. He be-
gan as freight clerk for the G.. II. 40
years ago, or when only 20 years old.
He has mounted the ladder ground by
round" until now at the age of sixty he
is manager of one of the greatest r.. r..
systems on this or any other continent.
At this age most men retire from ac-
tive life; but Mr.. Reeve seems to pos
sess all the business vigor and keen
insight into details that man of forty
is expected to have. That this great
line by the voice of its directors should
choose him for the great trust, is proof
of their trust in his business ability.
Mr.. Reeve, though English born, is an
American in all his principles and
fealty. That the road, which is con-
trolled overwhelmingly by English cap
ital should so appoint him, is to us a
pointer to the manhood of the new
manager, the merit that wins in the
long run.

One Of the most important of all
county offices is that of Prosecuting

person in this Office can make the

this when they elected E. f. Law to be
their prosecutor for the ensuing term.

The Power of the Press.

We noticed that the Port Huron
Times and few other papers have
been doing the spread eagle act with
the circular letter sent out by q. j.
Diekema, chairman of the Republican
State Central Committee. This same
circular letter was sent to all Republi-
can papers in the state. We received
one for which we were indeed grateful;
but The EXpositor never for a moment
thought of printing it, and especially
under displayed headlines and well
stuffed with comment calling attention
to ourselves as the great mogul of party
principles and power.
That letter is good one but it's
simply a circular sent out in formal &C
acknowledgements of aid received, and
not u personal letter at all. AS a
crow from the boss rooster it was both
fine and fitting; but when taken up by
bantams and reproduced in all varieties
of tone and from every slat coop in the
state, it is much like monkeys trying to
take the elephants part in a circus.
These same all powerful, vote-getting,
slate-smashing, we-did-it-all journals
did no more than their modest neigh
bors in the last campaign. They did
their duty, but that is no reason that
| they must now encore themselves, or
| obtain little cheap glory by pulling
themselves.
Very likely not one of these same all
powerful sentiment moulders, these
victory winners, did a thing they were
not paid for doing. They used printers
| ink freely, but was it free ink? Did
they, so to speak, dot single l or cross
| q single r for which they were not paid
in cash or promises? The whole thing
| makes us think of the story of how
John and Sally killed the bear. Sally's
part was the killing of bruin; but
Johns part consisted in telling about it.

P. L Bonebrake, president of the Cen
trail National bank, read a paper on the
Deposit of State Money in Banks" at
the meeting of the Bankers association
this week: It was as follows:
Some weeks ago there was a terrible
howl raised because the state treasurer
deposited money in banks in Topeka 1t
was, of course, a political move, but at
the same time it developed a great lack
of knowledge on the part of the public, as
to the law regulating such deposits.
Prior to March, 1891, the county treas
urers were directed to pay to the state
treasurer, on or before January 1st, July
1st and November 1st, in each year, in
legal currency. state warrants or ma
tured coupons, the whole amount of taxes
collected in their respective counties, and
section 694S General Statutes of 1858
The method Of collection under the old
law was as provided in Section 6952, page
2l13 General Statutes of 1868 and read
as follows: The state treasurer, in set
Ting with the county treasurers, shall
credit the counties the amount of travel
ing fees at the rate of 10 cents per mile,
for the number of miles necessarily trav-
eled to make the settlement
had the state treasurer make state
ment of the fees paid county treasurers
for the January settlement Of 1880. it be-

ords, the state paid county treasurers for
treasury for the January settlement Of
1890, the sum of S4.377. 10, this being one of
the three aIlnuai settlements required Dy
law. As the law required three such set
Elements annually, the cost would be three
times as much or S13. 1870 annually As
the treasurers would only pay three cents
per mile. and got ten cents, they would
come with alacrity- They would be fool
ish, If they did not. 1t was good for the
treasurers but bad for the state.
In the nine years since the passage of
the new law, which will be referred to
hereafter. It would have cost the state
nine times that of 1890, which would
amount to $11S. 20, which under the new
law has been saved to the state.
To show how it worked under the old
law. the state paid the county treasurer of
Stanton county. $50 for carrying S1.100o0
to the state treasury The county treas
urer of Stevens county received $500 for
the same purpose for carrying 81. 400 10
to the state treasury. Under the new law
it would have cost a two cent stamp to
remit drafts.
