He IS STILL FOR BLISS.
Railroad Commissioner Chase
S. Osborn, a Bliss Man.
TALKS ABOUT STEARNs' BOOM.
And the Three Cornered Congress.
sional Fight in the Eishth-Rec Gently
Returned From Bermudas.

From the Saginaw Evening News
Chase S. Osborn, railroad commits
sioner, was in the city yesterday. Mr.
Osborn returned Monday from the Ber-
muda Islands, where he and his wife
spent several weeks ON pleasure trip
He was enthusiastic in his praise of the
islands best noted for the quality of
onions raised there, saying that many
things of interest occupied the attention
of travellers to those islands
Mr.. Osborn is the same jovial fellow
of old, and pleaded ignorance when ask
ed about political affairs, saying that he
had not been back in the state long
enough to get interested in the game.
He was aware, however, that Stearns
was candidate, as published in The
News Saturday.
Il feel just the same about Stearns'
candidacy as l always have" said Mr..
Osborn, land am sure that he cannot
win out. Everything points to the re-
nomination of Governor Bliss, which /
think is eminently just. No! 1 have
not changed my mind at all about
Stearns' long delayed candidacy, and am
for the present governor.
What do you think about the three
cornered, congressional fight that the
Eighth district republicans have on their
hands, asked The News reporter.
Well replied the popular railroad
commissioner, Il have not heard any
thing more about it than have seen in
the papers / can, however, congratu-
late the Eighth district ON the three men
who are announced as candidates. ]
know all three men and assure you any
one would be a credit to the district.
Of course Congressman Fordney has
rather an advantage owing to the pres
tige and influence his terms at Washing
ton entitle him to. However, Mr..
Humphrey or Mr.. Norton are equally
qualified for the position, and would fill
it with great honor to themselves as well
as to the district and state
Il am glad to note that the contest is
to be friendly one," continued Mr..
Osborn, who had evidently been struck
by the current of harmony electricity
generated 10y the wheelhorses of the G.
O. p. in this district. whoever wins,
will win after fight free from any
thing distasteful, and will undoubtedly
receive the full support of the defeated
candidates.
Congressman Fordney has made a
good man from this district at Washing
ton" Mr.. Osborn said, land he has OBJ
tanned considerable of a reputation as a
fighter He has made a record which
he and the district which has twice
chosen him as their representative car
well be proud of. have not become
acquainted with the workings of the
political game in the state since my re-
turn" concluded Mr.. Osborn, land con-
sequently am a little at sea when talk
ing aboIlt them"

sulked and refused to pull "What'll

That homely compliment to women:
1.-The gray mares the better horse" sug-
gests how often when there's an extra
strain to be borne it is laid on the
woman's back. How often she breaks

From the Hastings Bar ner.

From the Hastings Bar ner.
For many years the little rock-ribbed
state of Maine had more influence in
shaping national legislation than any
other state in the union, numbering
among its statesmen such men as Thos.
B. Reed, Congressman Dingley, Boutelle,
and others That state won its reputa-
ton for producing statesmen, not SO
much by the exceptional ability of the
men as by the custom of returning a
good man to congress, or the United
States senate as long as he would con-
tinue to run. The experience of years
makes man better fitted to perform
his duties, no matter what the position
is.
OF late the state of Iowa is admittedly
the leader in national affairs. With
such men in the senate as Allison and
Dolliver, and men in the house of repre-
sentatives of almost equal renown, the
position of the state is assured. Sena-
tor Allison has been in public life, in
the senate and congress for over 40
years. Dolliver was in congress many
years before he was elected to the
United States senate. The COMPRESSION
al delegation from Iowa is one Of excep-
tional strength and standing and in
huence. This position has been brought
about by getting good men for these
positions and then re electing them
as long as they will accept and perform
their duties honestly and efficiently.
If Michigan ever hopes to achieve the
position in national legislation that her
greatness entities her to, she must adopt
the same plan. 1t takes man two or
three terms to familiarize himself with
the duties of his position as congress
man. 1t has been the custom in many
of the districts of this state to give a
man two terms and then make a change.
Following such custom as this in this
state has certainly lessened the influence
and standing of the congressional dele
cation from this state, and an earnest
effort should be made to overcome it.
