The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1902-08-29

The last democratic legislature passed
more laws intended to make places for
new officials and to unseat existing
officers than all the legislatures which
have existed in Michigan since that
time, ten years ago. That was ripper"
legislation with a vengeance. The pur-
pose of the democratic legislature was
not to affect for good any interests of
the state but to make places for clamor-
ing members of its party. 1t is not
probable that with such record the
issue of "ripperism" can be utilized as a
democratic war-cry to any great adj
vantage throughout the present state
campaign. Cadillac News and Express.

Praises for Mcmillan.

The N. Y. Mail and Express pays high
tribute to Michigan's lately deceased
senator in the following paragraph:
No state could ask better servant than
Michigan found in Senator Mcmillan,
her adopted son. He stood always for
the best and highest forms of Republican
ism and he furnished in his career a
strong argument for those who hold that
an energetic, systematic caretaker of his
constituents needs is better servant
than ready debater and leader in party
councils,

Tho only herd of bison of any i'm
portance now left in the United States
from the millions which a few years
ago roamed over the entire country
between the Missouri river and the
Rocky mountains. consists of about
fifty full-blooded buffalo. and the same
number of mixed bloods, all now the
property OF James Philip of Fort
Pierre, who Is known all over the range
country as "Scotty" Philip.
This herd is the product of a hunt
twenty years ago, when Frederick Du-
pree. an old French trapper. foreseeing
the early determination of the species.
started for the Little Missouri country
to capture "A few calves for the purpose
a band of Indians and halfbreeds, who
only accomplished the purpose for
which they set out after a Ions and
dangerous search among the few small
punches Of buffalo yet known to be
roaming in that country. Only half a
dozen calves were taken alive, ana
from these the present herd has grown.
Mr.. Dupree allowed the buffalo to
range practically wild on the Cheyenne
river, with no further attention than
to see that they did not get out of that
part OF the state. where they were
kept until his death. In the settlement
of the estate none of the numerous
heirs cared to take them as his share
Of the estate, and they were sold to
"Scotty' Philip, after an Intellectual at
tempt to dispose of them to the general
government.
Just what the value of the herd Is Is
problematical, but as il is the only
herd left in the country on which to
draw for specimens, this will give it
an increasing value as years &c by.
Having had practically the same
freedom as in their native state, the
specimens of the herd are somewhat
different from those usually seen in
parks ana menageries. One bull out
of this herd was sold for show pur-
poses about ten years ago for $1,000.

Excepting the duchess saun, which

the younger members of conservative
families, hardly any of the beautiful
white materials shown for women's
wear are more popular than others.
Crepe de chine has come to possess a
standard value, chiffon and silk mus

perhaps, are quite as effective. Wa
tered silk is in temporary favor for

"The DInner-PaiI Preacher"

Rev. George l.. McNutt, whose ex
periences among w%orkingmen have
given him the title OF the dinner-pail
preacher" says: From the religious
point of view there are five great
classes in the community; first, the
leisure rich, who have a few churches
that they like; second, what may be
called the commercial class-mer-
chants. professional men, store-keep-
ers. and other so-called middle-class
people-this class forming the main
support of most churches; third, the
mechanics. or dinner-pail men. and
their families; fourth. the pauper class.
and fifth, the criminal. The dinner
pail man. you see. gets left out, so to
soak, between the church people on
the one hand, and the mission people
on the other, and goes to the saloon.
the iodge-room and other places. And
at present it is not very clear just how
the condition of things in this particu-
lar resp5ct is to be altered"

In one respect at least harvest time

~ the elderly In agricultural dis
tricts the fact that since their day
rustic industries have undergone i'm
mense changes. The local conditions
Of rural life as regards tho agricul-
tural ard cottage laborers have doubt
less been appreciably improved during
the last fifty years. Wages have
increased and much physical exertion
has been modified by the use of me-
chanical and labor-savlng contriy-
ances. 1t is the women. however,
OF the cottage homes who are the
greatest gamers by the changes in
rural conditions. Fifty years ago they
took their share Of the field work with
tn zen, and summer or winter alike
the wife or daughter was as much a
acid hand as the husband or father.
But now II Is only upon special occa-
siOns that the cottage housewife Is
to be met with working in the fields,
or on the land at all, unless 1t is in
her W cottage garden. There Is one
characteristic of rural industry"
which has been handed down from
long antecedent times. and which has
always seemed to have beer the wo-
mans work. and yet, during the last
few years II. too, has ceased to find
its wonted votaries. Cleaning in the
%cornhelds, as Ruth CLEANED after the
reapers in the fields of Doaz, has van
ished for ever. The reaper and self
binder leave little for the cleaner 20
pick up. and as the days of high
priced bread seem also to have passed,
the laborers who lived largely upon
the brown bread ground from the corn
of their own cleaning now eat the
white bread the bakers cart leaves
at their door. Thus there is no incen-
tive to pursue this old world indus
try. 1t has gone the way OF silkworm
culture-a species of rural industry
which James /. and succeeding mon
archs made strenuous efforts to en-
courage. In connection with the silk
worm, mulberry trees were planted in
prodigious quantities sixty years or so

Newest In Furniture,

The verify newest thing in the way
of furniture is called the mission
style" and was first suggested to the
inventor by seeing an old Spanish
mission chair brought from California
in 1894. Its quaint outlines and in
teresting construction indicate the
possibility of a scheme of handmade
furniture built on the old early Eng
fish architectural lines. Built of ma
tive ash, stained in browns. grays and
green's, 1t is guiltless Of armament,
and no carving, not even a molding,
