The Eighth District.
From The Saginaw Corrler.H eral'.

From The Saginaw Correr.Heral'
The Eighth congressional convention
to nominate candidate for representa-
tive in congress on the republican ticket
will be held in this city next Wednes-
day. The delegates will simply convene
and ratify the sentiment of the rank and
file of the party, which is that Hon.
Joseph w. Fordney be nominated TO
succeed himself 1t is quite probable
that no other name will be presented to
the convention, and that Mr.. Fordney's
denomination will be by reclamation,
since it is understood that Mr. Norton
has reconsidered his determination to go
before the convention as candidate.
A denomination by unanimous vote
will be handsome compliment to Mr..
Fordney, and an acknowledgment on
the part of the party that he has proved
himself such a useful member that the
people desire to retain him for another
term. Mr.. Fordney has been assiduous
in his efforts in behalf of his constituents
and no interest has been neglected by
him. Few congressman have achieved
so much in the way of substantial bene-
fits to constituents. He has covered his
district with network of rural delivery
routes, has secured appropriations for
public purposes on liberal scale, and
in word has been interchangeable in the
effort to serve the district usefully a d
acceptably. 1t is gratifying that the
clouds of few weeks ago that fore
Swallowed a contest in the district, the
result of which would have engendered
bitterness, have rolled by, and that the
republicans in the Eighth district will
stand shoulder to shoulder and with the
best of spirits and feeling go resolutely
forward confronted only by the common
enemy.

Owosso township republicans at their

resolutions:
Resolved, BY the republicans of the
township of Owosso, that we are opposed
to all unnecessary expenses in both
state and local matters.
Resolved, That we favor the final ad-
justment of the question of taxation so
that all property, private and corporate

double taxation which the House and

Governor vetoed.
We believe in primary election law

was so plain, indeed, that Mr.. justice
White, who is always Fostering lawyers
with questions, this time forgot to do So
Beginning life about the same time
as soon as they had reached manhood
both turned to the law as their chosen
profession, and although much of the
time in politics like Benjamin Harrison
and Grover Cleveland, they have gained
regulations as eminent lawyers; es.
pecially is this true of Senator Morgan,
who stands today foremost among the
lawyers of his state. Both obtained
their training in the legislatures of
their respective states and from thence
came to congress- but as before sug-
gested, the Alabama senator's legislative
career was interrupted by the war
period and the time it took to recon
struct his state, and fit it for the union.
Since that time he has taken very
prominent part in Federal Legislation
and today is the one democrat who
commands such general respect that he
Is placed at the head of the important
committee on Inter Oceanic Canals
The Importance of such an appointment
must certainly be generally understood.
Next to the legislation on the Philip
pines and the Ship Subsidy Bill, no
proposed Legislation is more important
than that which shall provide for a
waterway across the strip of country
which connects the Pan-American
states. Senator Morgan has consistent
~ urged the acceptance of those plans
which provide fog ship canal across
Nlcaraugan territory. The enormous
sum of two hundred millions of dollars,
is estimated as the first cost and then
there is to be provided for the annual
expense of maintaining this waterway
estimated at many millions. From this
may be understood the Importance of
the measure. Senator Morgan favors
the Nicaraugan project, first, because
it will be an all American project. This
is sentimental and he says so. Bat
from the economical standpoint he
makes the claim that it is five hundred
miles nearer home The climate is
better. being cooler and more salubrious
and it would take less time to construct.
The photographer of the Isthmian canal
estimates final balance in
favor OF the Panama route of about
'hirty-five millions Of dollars. The re-
port OF the commission however shows
hat these figures are more than offset |
by superior shipping facilities by way |
If the Nicaraugan route. And the re- !
port of the commission generally favors
he claims of the chief advocate of this |
project, Senator Morgan. So it is apt |
20 result in giving him full measure of !
praise. Beside this, this measure is one /
n which the administration is interested |!

necessarily brought close to the presi- |
lent and his advisers.
AS Senator Morgan is respected and

preciated by his rival, IL not enemy, the sugar
trust. That is, he can turn out good and
merchantable article, ready for use. without
paying tribute to the refner. Were 1t not
for this, he would be unable to compete with
either Cuba or Germany, where the condi-
tons Of labor and experience are so much
in their favor, even with the benefits of pro
lection; and it is largely due to the fact that
the United States is the only country now
producing beet sugar ready to eat that we
may hope to see at no very distant period,
the full-grown industry supplying the de-
mands of the country on purely business
basis.
To give facts or figures without a proper
explanation of conditions is but misleading at
the best. You refer to g a statement made in
1889 by W. -Bayard Cutting and Henry T. Ok
nard," which you reprint. in your paper and
send me a copy of, asking my opinion as to
its correctness. -tE g.E r.. H..
The article is too long for more than gen.
eral criticism in "a letter like this, and was
probably intended, as you intimate, to draw
the attention of investors rather than~for the
instruction or information of the general pub
lie; and, naturally, investors supposed
to look beyond the glowing lines of pros
pectus before subscribing their money, while
it is possible your less interested readers
would inquire further, but form their
!, opinions from merely reading the article as
printed. Now, there are many points in the
article that are misleading. That is, while
the statements may be absolutely true re-
garding one special locality, or even one par
tcular season., they would be untrue regard
ing many, if not all, other places and sea-
sons. Because one man can raise beets upon
his own land for 81 per ton, under partieu-
larly favorable conditions, is reason for
supposng that every man cand the same.
And simply because one factory may, under
| certain conditions, manufacture ton of beets
into sugar for So, it is not to be considered
certain that every other factory can manu-
facture sugar at that figure under any and
all circumstances.
Conditions Affecting the Industry.
Again, the business is more or less specula-
lative from the very beginning. The farmer
or grower must take his chances not only

experience have taught him it's true value

.HOEvEL QUARTET CONCERT

An audience of fair proportions greeted the
Hoevel String quartet at the First Unitarian
church last evening in the fourth of it's
series of chamber music concerts, although
the interesting program offered and the work
of the quartet merited much larger attend
ance. IT,. u st.-... ..
The opening lumber was one of the many
string instrument compositions of Schumann,
opus A, which was played with the assist
ance of Arthur Strachauer at the piano.
While beautiful composition, the opening
movement was not played with that precision
and concord which might have been given it,
and was marred by the entrance Of late COM
ers, who disturbed both the audience and the
quartet. The second movement was much
more successful, and was better rendered,
the piano and cello work being especially
good. 500
The quartet alone played the closing num-
her, a Beethoven quartet, opus IL, No. 4, and
in it did the most satisfactory work it has
yet done in this series of concerts. There
seemed unity Of work and q depth Of tone,
spirit and swing to the different movements
which carried the work along to "a successful
ending and thoroughly enjoyable rendi-
ton This numbersmarke the highest achieve
ment of the quartet this season, and the lib
eral applause it received indicated the appre-
citation of this fact. %%- 3
A rich treat in the program was the play
by a French composer, Bertrand, by Mr..
Hoevel, assisted by Arthur Strachauer. This
suite is marked by a lightness and vivacity
which is infectious, and is of much intrinsic
value as a contribution to musical thought,
aside from it's evidence of technical workman
ship. Mr. Hoevel played it well, and the
work of Mr.. Strachauer was decidedly ar
tistic and finished. -@
The soloist Of the evening, Alfred R. Wiley,
sang three numbers-an aria, ''Vision Fair, :
from Massenets "Herodiade," and two Eng
lish songs, Hawley's Were I a STAR and
.Highway1nan's Song by Woodman. His
voice is large in volume, of excellent timbre
and he possesses an extensive range, which en-
ables him to sing well up into the barytone
register, and probably accounts for his be-
ing classed as barytone, although he might
with equal propriety be called a bass. His
singing was artistic, and the varied charac-
ter of the songs sung demonstrated his ver-
satility He was obliged to respond to two
encores. s...E i.
