FOR AUDITOR GENERAL.

There is no L an in the whole state
OF Michigan whom the editor of the
Banner would like to see hold the
position of auditor General better
than he would Arthur p, LOOMS,
and we endorse every word the Ionia
Sentinel has said in presenting his
name for that important office, a
portion of which we give:
"As q fit successor to the able and
good men who have filed this posi-
ton in previous Republican admins
trations, and particularly as a suit
able successor to the present excellent
and honest encumbent-Perry
Powers Sentinel presents the
name of Major Arthur p. Loomis,
not especially as the candidate OF
lonia county, for while it is true
that he lives on q farm in this county,
he is rightfully a representative OF
a much larger constituency. There
is no congressional district, no county
in Michigan where Major LOOMS is
not known, well known, and where
ever known he is liked and respected.
He is the fortunate posessor of all
the qualities and qualifca tions
needed to fulfill in every respect the
duties and responsibilities of this
Office, which in Importance to the
interests of the people is not inferior
to the Governorship itself-Maior
I.oomis is a practical and successful
farmer. He lives on the same farm
where, in the year 1859, he was born,
and which has been his home from
that time until now. There he passed
the days of his youth. There he
grew to manhood There in an
atmosphere of republfcanism he i'm
bibed the principles that have made
him steadfast and consistent adj
herent OF the party of Lincoln, Grant,
Garfield, Blaine, Mckinley and
Roosevelt.
Major Loomis was for four years
private secretary for Governor Rich
and brought directly from the farm
to the state capitol, displayed a tact,
modesty, an intuitive knowledge of
human nature, capacity for the
Belding banner. (Belding, Mich.) 1889-1918, 1904-03-10

delicate duties of this confidential
station, that made friends for his
chief and for himself OF all those per-
sons who had business, official, or
poll tical relations with the executive
Office.
Major LOOMS is one of the plain
people, representative farmer, a
lifelong republican, aud q citizen OF
whom we are proud and whom il will
be delight TO honor. AS candi-
date he would be strong, for his
record, public and private, is clean
and above criticism or reproach.
So far as Ionia county is concerned,
il will hold Major Loomis S candidacy
as paramount. Ionia republicans
are and will be devoted to his inter
ests, and will permit nothing else to
stand in the way of his success, using
every honorable means to secure his
nomination, thing that they all
most sincerely desire. "

Messers Jensen 4 Wheeler, the
hustling new business firm, who re-
Gently purchased the stock of Fl. j..
Leonard, are having extensive
changes made in their store building,
and when these changes are all com.
pleted they will have one of the best
appointed stores in the city.
The first move of the new firm was
to remove the big stairway in the
front of the store TO give them more
room to display their goods on the
first floor, and also give them con-
siderable more shelf room.
The basement which has heretofore
been used as a salesroom for carpets,
oilcloths, ETC., will hereafter be used
as store room for reserve stock, and
a large stairway will be built to reach
the upstairs, where in the future they
will display their carpets, curtains
and cloaks. 1t is our intention to
make our srore as attractive as
possible and show our goods to the
very best advantage said Mr.. Wheeler
in speaking of the change in progress,
and with a we'll lighted show room up
stairs, we will be in shape to place
our goods before the public in a
manner equal to the demands of a
city of this size.

CONCERNING STOCKS.
Listless Drift of Prices characterizes
Wall Street.

New York, May 21.-The list
less drift of prices for stocks in
Wall street this week indicate the halt
ing tone of the speculative sentiment.
The timidity and the ultimate effects
of the food of gold exports are sub
jects of some uneasiness which. have
not been justified by any perceptible
effect in the money market. Declining
railroad earnings, the moderate ex-
pressions of traffic officials over the
prospects, discouraging views over the
course Of the iron and steel trade and
a growing conviction of an impairment
Of the winter wheat crop to be har-
vested, unfavorable conditions for the
cotton crop and the belief that trade
activity generally is of diminishing
scale, have all contributed to the
neglect of the stock market.
