The future success If the republican

need an impartial administration aud II
is the belief Of the RECORD that Mr..
Ferry OF Detroit Is the strongest man,
and the man who can DO more 10 rally
together the factions Uf the party IN

the people.
Mr.. Ferry as a business man /, known
in every village and community IN the
state, and throughout his long business
career he has maintained a reputation
for honesty and fairness which has
made him respected and hou0red every
where, He has never sought political
favors and comes before the republican
party with record that no one can
question. Michigan needs business
man IN the executive chair, one who
will calmly ana carefully consider the
people, interests a. he would his own,
and who will strive TO create harmony
rather than dIscord throughout the
state.
While the main energies of his life
have been devoted 20 the seed business
Mr.. Ferry has long been identified with
other interests in Detroit, and he is to-.
day at the head Of several Of its large
manufacturing concerns, financial insti-
tutions and insurance companies He Is
also one of Michlgan's most public
spirited citizens. and has always been
ready 20 help In establishing and main.
tanning such educational, charitable and
other institutions and enterprises as
would best promote the public welfare
Mr.. Ferry Is a staunch believer IN re-
publican principles, and during the two
years from 500 70 1898, while chairman
OF the state central committee, he de-
monstrated what foresight, industry and
superb energy together with tact and
good judgment. could DO In the way of
advancing them HIS services In that
capacity as leader Of the republican
host In the campaign Of 1896, were OF an
exceedingly valuable character, and
greatly enlarged the obligations Of the
party toward him
His fellow citizens Of the republican
party from every quarter Of Michigan,
recognizing that his ability. wisdom and
justice peculiarly fit him for the Office
Of chief executive of the state. have
brought him into prominence as can.
dldate for nomination at the next state
convention. Having entered the list as
candidate, he does so under the be.
lief that in this way he can best adj
vance the interests of the people of
Michigan, and incidentally the republi.
can party generally in the campaign of
1900 and his aim will be the common
good Of all.
II Mr.. Ferry is elected governor the
people of Michigan will be guaranteed
the same energetic, honest and pains
taking administration in state affairs
that he has always given 10 his private
business He is with the people ON tax
