Every voter, and in particular every
farmer, in the eighth congressional dis
trict will remember with satisfaction
for years to come the efforts made by
Congressman Fordney to prevent even
the slightest decrease in duty upon i'm
ported sugar. That the fight was a
popular one in this state and that the
leaders of the republican party as well
as the rank and file still still have an
opinion as to its Importance, the follow
ing from the resolutions adopted at the
republican state convention in Grand
Rapids this week shows clearly enough.
1t is fine vindication of the position
taken by Mr.. Fordney who was one of
the. most strenuous of all of the strenu-
Gus leaders in that fight. The resolu-
ton referred to is as follows: Mindful
OF one of Michigan's greatest industries,
we request the next national republican
convention to declare for the policy of
increasing the present import duty on
sugar so as to protect the home market
from undue foreign competition, and
thus carry out the pledges contained in
previous republican national platforms "

Alderman Rigley seems to have come
In for criticism in some quarters for his
attitude in the matter of the close
scrutiny of city expenses. Considerable
more criticism is made of his not alto
gether parliamentary way of making his
objections to such courses as meet with
his disapproval. For the latter The
TIMES has no excuse to offer, although
it may be fair to say that there has
probably been quite as pointed language
used for a good many years in the coun-
Gil chamber, under smaller provocation
and without any undue publicity hav-
ing been given it by the press of the city
AS any that Alderman Rigley has
used. For the other part of the matter
however, the close scrutiny of all bills
and resolutions calling for the expendi-
ture of money, and the scrupulous liv-
ing up to the terms of the charter
which, it seems, plainly enough forbids
any alderman from entering into con-
tracts with the city or selling goods to
the city, the opinion of THE TIMES is
that Alderman Rigley is on exactly the
right track. The TINES believes that
Mr.. Rigleys position is the only correct
one, viz, that the charter is to be lived
up to in all cases, and it believes that
he should be given the support of the
other members of the council in his con-
tention for the observance of its provi
sions. AS to the action of Alderman
Sturtevant, THE TIMES believes that
the bill of goods was sold by him to the
city with no thought on his part of any
illegal action. The matter having been
thoroughly aired as it has been, THE
TIMES will confess itself to have been
greatly mistaken in its estimate of AL
derman Sturtevant if he ever again
offers opportunity for the same criticism
to be made Of him.
