The proposed change Of location OF the
pumping station, as outlined in the COM
mittec report to the council Saturday
night, does not appear Of sufficient merit
for serious consideration, and the HERALD

when it figures up the cost Of removal,
and contrasts that expense with the
greatest possible saving that can be
effected. the only object 10 be attained
by moving the pumps n locality close

Economy should be practiced in every

should be neglected or diSregarded,
on account of expense. The saloon
element should be granted every
liberty that their license allows them,
but beyond that, they should not be
permitted to 60. We understand
several mothers have entered COM
plaint to the authorities that gambling
is permitted in several places in the
city and that the Sunday portion of
the license law is freely and openly
violated every Sabbath day. Now. If
these reports are true, the city officials
should check and prevent these open
violations. If the city authorities
will see that our laws are enforced.
not rigidiy, but well, there is no good
reason why the city should not be
governed in a nOn-partisan spirit and
have it efficiently done. We believe
that CIR PR gantCs GERS will try and
see that this is done, and if this is
accomplished, and good economical
administration given, we will all be
glad to continue the present non
partisan spirit in our election. The
question is, will it be done? Time
will tell.

stated it with such clearness and
dignity that it was usually accepted
as correct without further question.
He was always willing to accept good
suggestions from Others, and in passing
those good suggestions on he was
always careful to give credit to those
from whom the suggestions came.
Briefly stated, in public office Mr..
Witter was always found standing in
the position that good Judgment and
honesty pointed out as right.
But not alone did he serve the
public in the way already mentioned.
Indeed his public services in those
capacities were small compared with
his service in moulding public
character throughout the influence of
our public library From the time of
the incorporation of the T. B. Scott

1889 to 1901, when he stepped aside to

ALBERT PRESTON COMMITS SUICIDE.
Was Temporarily Deransed at the Time Act
Was Committed.

The citizens of Grand Rapids were
aStOunded Monday morning when it
became known that Albert Preston
who was in the employ Of the Centra-
liza Hardware Company and did the
chores at l.. NJ. NaSh'S residence, was
missing, and that his coat and vest
were found upon the Green Bay s.
Western E. r. bridge which spans the
Wisconsin river at this point. 1t
appears that Mr.. Preston had been
worried over matters concerning the
title to his homestead and brOOding
over the possibility of losing his home
property. He talked with his brothers,
Saul and George Preston, and his
employer, L. NJ. Nash, in reference to
this matter, and appeared to be
deSpOndent and diScOnSolate, and
seemed to be in a state of meditation.
The last seen of Mr.. Preston was at
about half-paSt-tive that morning.
He was seen by Garry Mason and
others. on Main street, west side, and
at 700 a. N. his clothing, coat and
vest was found on the bridge by an
employe in the power house while
going to his work.
A strict search was made for his
body which was found short distance
below the bridge, opposite point on
the bridge where the clothes were
found. 1t had been pushed upon a
large rock. by the ice, and was high
and dry when discovered. Friends
conveyed the body to the shore and
the remains were taken to his home
on the west side.
Mr.. Preston leaves a wife and four
children to mourn his unfortunate
taking off. He had always been a
hardworking man of good habits but
did not enjoy the best of health and
periodically his mind appeared to be
affected. This case is an especially
sad one, and his wife and children
have the sympathy of the community
in their bereavement.
The funeral service took place at
the NJ. E. church Wednesday after
noon, Rev. w. A. Peterson officiating.

The non-partisan spirit is commend
able in all municipal elections and if
not abused by those who are elected
to Office, is the most ideal form of local
government. In this spirit the people
OF Grand Rapids have placed their
confidence in the present Mayor. W.

the present city officials who have
been unanimously re-nOminated.

them in the discharge of their several
duties. We are confident that noae
of them will allow any faction or
clique to dictate or control their
actions in the disposal of any public
business. They should always bear in
mind that the city's welfare should
be vigilantly guarded in every respect,
with justice and fairness to all.
