GO AT IT RIGHT.

ANt NNUGAN ANNNNt VI ''-t'- approves the speech ot President RooSe- welt delivered a, che Alaskan meeting l a, Seattle, and in assigning the cause for its approval, it says; .He says he is anxious Co have laws framed not in the interest ot those who wish Co skin the country and then leave it. but in the interest Of those who in- tend Co live here and stay here and hiring up children here and make it in every part as well as in name an integ- ral part Of the republic DO
 10 says further "he pledges his help Go effect such legislation"
 The first quotation is all right. No one doubts the presidents intentions toward Alaska and there is no question but cha, the permanent settlers are the ones for whom laws should be framed It is the second quotation which should cause alarm. for the reason that it sug- ges,s the idea that Mr. Roosevelt may desire Co judge. himself, as towhat pa'- ,icular kind ot legislation the eOudi- lions in Alaska require. This he is not capable of doing, and we will grant, for the sake of argument at least, that he is as big a man as the Juneau paper be- lieyes him Co be. There |, no man liy- ing so familiar with Northern condi- tions that he i, capable oi shaping the laws under vhi;h the development of Alaska can be best worked out. There can be no body of men, ,he members of which are not personally concerned in the results attained, ,ha, is capable oi legislatins upon che local afairN Of this di,,ric. iu such way as Co work for che best interests oi the people residing here.

smoke from the burning wood ESCAPES
through an adjustable exhauster that
sucks up and carries 1t IF through a
window.
The substances used In typography
are chiefly leather and wood. Well
seasoned holly, lime, sycamore, tulip
and poplar are the woods perhaps best
adapted to the work.
Typography isgrowing In popularity.
The simplicity of the methods produce
excellent results. The variety OF the
articles that can be purchased In wood
and leather beautifully burned In ap.
propriate designs is almost endless.
"Book Plates, "by Miss Carrie Smith.
Book plates are used to indicate the
ownership OF books, and are also art
vehicles which reflect something of the
decorative achievement of designers.
Books In ancient libraries were
housed In temples, with priests as Wig.
liant librarians. The books were of
great value because upon many of them
a lifetime of patient skill had been
expended. They were fastened with
strong iron chains to desk or shelf.
This is the only safe method yet origi-
mated Of insuring the return of a bor-
rOwed book; for 1t is unfortunately
true that book, like an umbrella, is
thought by many to be public property.
Libraries OF chained volumes were
found throughout the civilized world
as late as part of the fifteenth century,
when the invention OF printing from
movable type gave the world boolS
cheap and plentiful enough to be used
without chains. Then came the need
Of some practical manner of marking
volumes to indicate the ownership. To
meet this want the book plate was or
iginated to be silent witness against
the book thief.
The earliest book plates were copies
Of the family blazon, and date from
1470. Down through the ages they
have been the mirrors rejecting the
manners and customs of each age.
Although collecting book plates is a
a very costly process, there are many
valuable collections to be found among
book lovers in many countries. Good
American plates are worth from ten
to fifteen dollars each. Some one has
said, "Not to own book plate with
which to mark your books is to argue
yourself quite out of the trend of Gull
ture and education.

MICHIGAN CONSTITUTION.
Revision Proposition to be Voted on
Next Year.

Next Year.
Michigan voters will have an oppor.
tunity in the election of November,
1904, to say whether the state consti
tuition shall be revised, the bill submit.
ting the question to the people having
been signed by Gov. Bliss recently.
Should the people vote in favor of a
general revision it will be the duty OF
the next legislature to determine how
the work shall be done.
There have been two constitutional
conventions since the original document
was adopted in 1850 One in 1867, was
made up of delegates selected from the
various counties according to popula
ton, and one in 1874 was made up OF
two members from each congressional
district, appointed by the governor
The first one ran for three months and
the second for two months. Each OF
the proposed constitutions prepared by
these bodies was rejected by the people,
and there has thus been no general
effective revision of the states basic law
since 1850, though it has been much
amended in spots.

How to Make a Test.

Referring to the "Let-well enough
alone" doctrine advocated by Secretary
Root in his Boston speech, the Mime
apolis Journal says:
But If times continue good the doc
trine of leaving things to themselves
will be just as good in 1905 as now, and
that sort of postponement cannot be
kept up very long if the tariff is to be
revised by its friends.
There is probably not one man in a
thousand in the United States that does
not expect to see a business and indus
trial reaction in this country sometime
within the next ten years, and many
expect it within the next five. When
that reaction comes it will be too late to
talk about having the tariff. altered by
it's friends. The people are more likely
10 be in mood to have it altered with
o broadax by its enemies
This question can be tested-in sim
pie and direct manner. Thus:
Let the national republican conven-
tion next year resolve that
Tariff stability is vital need of all
business, industry, trade and commerce
l.
highly prosperous condition, any re-
vision of the tariff at this time is I'M
called for, unwise and unwarranted.
Then let the national democratic con-
vention next year assert in its platform
that
a, The existing protective tariff is rob-
fery and tax; it obstructs business: it
shelters monopoly; it permits combina-
tions of producers to plumber the con-
sumers; it makes the rich richer and the
poor poorer Therefore the tariff should
be Immediately repealed and in its place
a tariff for revenue only should be en-
acted.
Going before the country upon the
tariff issue thus sharply and clearly de-
tined, which party would carry the
presidential election of 1904? From
present indications that issue is likely
TO be presented. In such an event
watch the republican mugwumps fall
over each other in their hurry to get
back into the republican ranks A few
Of them might rush in the opposite
direction, but for every such deserter a
score of business democrats who are
making money and want the tariff let
alone would be found quietly voting the
republican ticket. The country is in no
hurry to be torn up again by tariff ex-
periments American Economist.

North owos.o Farmers. Club.

The North Owosso farmers were
heartily welcomed last Friday al
meadow Grove" farm, the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Smith. There was
a good attendance In spite of the I'm.
favorable weather. The farmers club
proves a great attraction, for some OF
the members have said they wouldn't
go any where else In the rain.
A bountiful dinner was served, i'm.
mediately following which the club
was called to order by the president.
All sang America, after which the
questions were taken up.
(which is more profitable, a large
farm which requires hired help or a
small one which the farmer can work
himself?" Mr. Place spoke on this sub.
)ect as well as several others. There
was some difference of opinion. Mr..
Place thinks large farm better II the
owner can look after 1t himself, as the
outlay In tools and other accessories is
as much on a small farm as large one.
be also thinks it is more profitable to
keep help all the year on large farm
than to hire occasionally on a small
one. Some argued In favor of the
small farm as the taxes are less, fewer
horses required and less capital in
vested.
"Should the egg money belong to the
wife to do with as she pleases?" Yes,
II the wives take all care of the chick
ems, as most farmers wives do, she
should certainly have the eggs and
also the money when the chickens are
sold.
Mattibell Getman gave a pleasing
recitation.
"Tell about the Ancient Order Of
Cleaners, and give the address of G.
IL. Slocumb, the supreme secretary. 4"
Q. Freeman said there are several
lodges In the county and state, but he
was unable to obtain the address of
their secretaries.

Then the bedding should be washeds
Always clean up stairs before begin

water In which put little cabolic
acid In order to cleanse thoroughly

"When should clover seed be sown
and how much per acre." w. Smith
said SOW 1t early In spring, and about
six quarts to the acre.
"Is 1t advisable to grow ginseng?"
O. Day said he was unable to say
whether or not 1t was advisable to
grow 1t here as he had never had any
experience, but he gave very good
history OF the plant and how 1t should
be cultivated. 1t requires five years
to mature and the seed is very expen-
ive, but one acre has been known to
yield $4,000 worth of the root.
"What about the American. Society
Of Equity?" The object is to get
better price for farm productions.
The headquarters are in Minneapolis
and 1t is quite a new organization.
The program was closed with song
by Leslie Parker.
The next meeting will be held on
the afternoon of May 20, with Mr.. and
Mrs. @. Freeman. Program as follows:
"The possibilities Of the farmers
club as an educator Of farming along
practical lines?" e. o. Place.
"Will narrowing wheat or rye in
spring pay the farmer?" It. Stiles.
1.-THE use and abuse Of the whip on
the horse?" Edna Miller and Mrs.
Emma Lowell.
"Is the strengthening machine
profitable investment for farmer
with a large or small flock?" A. Clapp.
"Why is the range better than the
common cook stove?" Club.
"Would COW peas and soy beans be
better to raise than some Of the feed
now used for hogs and cattle?" w.
Smith.
"Care of bees from May to Novem-
ber?" Q. Freeman.
