years from asthma, and this was the
primary cause of his fatal illness.
The death Of Mayor Jones caused
the greatest sorrow all over the city.
Although many did not believe in his
ideas on sociological problemt every
body loved and respected him. His
one great stronghold with the people
of Toledo was his honesty. The may

December of last year Mr.. Gillett mys-
teriously disappeared. His body was
later found in we'll on the premises.
Mrs Gillett and son were suspected OF
putting him out Of the way, although
the young man at the time OF his
fathers disappearance was at work on
the farm of William Smith and knew
nothing of what had happened at home.
The Lansford. North Dakota, Times
of June II, had the following;
"Lansford never had murder case
enacted here yet. We do not blame
the authorities for investigating the
death of Chauncey Gillett. 1t was due
to Mrs. Gillett that it should be investi'
gated to free her from suspicious criti
cism, but she has been proven innocent
and discharged, and we think the case
should be left at rest. We do not be
lieve that further investigation VII

owOsso, FRIDAY. JULY is, 1904

The nomination of Mr.. Warner for
governor had been conceded even by ms
opponents for several months. Fred M.
Warner probably has more personal
friends than any other man in Michl-
gan. He has travelled much through
out the state, is possessed OF a cordial
CHEEKY manner, is naturally friendly
and DESTROYS of thinking well OF people,
and is possessed of an unusually good
memory. THESE characteristics have
very much more to do with making him
the almost unanimous nominee OF his
PARTY for governor of Michigan than
had the favor and assistance of the So
called republican machine. Indeed
Warner was accepted as the candidate
of the faction of the party which mas
been dominant at recent conventions
only after he had demonstrated that ms
popularity would make him forceful
and aggressive candidate, no matter
what the leaders thought OF it and re-
CARELESS of who his opponents might De-
His candidacy was unquestionably
strengthened and made certain by the
support.of the men whose names would
be given in any review of the local and
state leaders of the republican party OF
Michigan, but these leaders had moth
ing to do with suggesting Fred Warner
asa nominee for governor and very
much less than they are credited with
for the successful result of his candi
.dacy.
Those who know Fred Warner bes'
are strongest in tho assurance that ht
will not be controlled by any indlvld
nails or any faction in opposition t
what he regards as the best interests o
Michigan. His honesty has never beef
questioned he is frank and open in Sc
curing and in giving information, is
good reader of men and interpreter
human nature, and it is not fair to as
sumo that he would surrender his sell
esteem or the good name his life thu
far has gained for him for all the ofhce
in the state of Michigan.
1t is further fortunate that the hea
of the state ticket has with him as a.
companying candidates list OF gentl
men who will well bear the scrutin
and investigation which come to me
who desire official position. In ever
instance they were cordially supporte
by their home friends, several OF the
having won their way to official prom
ton through faithful and intelligel
service rendered in other official sta
relations. The republicans of Michig'
need have no fear as to the person
strength of their candidates before {
people, nor as to their ability to W.
perform the duties that will come
them after their election. -Cadill
