Supreme Court Hands Down A
Decision In Long Contested
Case.

The supreme court of the state
Wednesday afternoon handed down a
decision in the much contested
factional fight in the Republican
party, declaring that the La Toilette
ticket was the regular one, and La
Toilette and his associates will be
placed on the Republican ticket by
the Secretary of State,
The decision is long one, entering
into the case from all its phases.
Justices Marshall, Dodge aud WinslOw
were in favor of the La Toilette
ticket, and Justice Cassoday disSerted
from the decision,
The announcement of the decision
today came as great surprise as 1t
was not expected that any decision
would be handed down before the
eighteenth of the month.

The following little poem is takel
from the Chicago Record-Herald
representing Mr.. Bryan'S attitud
toward Judge Parker:
Friends and countrymen, let's trust him
Though he's not man to trust
let's endeavor to elect him,
Though his cause is far from just;
have put away all rancor
AS promised them would,
am for the splendid ticket,
Though it isn't any good.
Let us grid ourselves for battle
But hope we cannot win
Let us pray to be successful,
Though success would be a sin;
Let us give the peoples banner
Unto him to nobly bear,
But it's dangerous to do it,
For he isn't on the square.
Let us wave our hats for Parker,
The poor tool of foxy Dave;
Let us rest our hopes upon him
Though he's Mammon's cringing slave,
Let us raise him up to power.
Help to send him whooping through,
But remember-here warn you
You'll be sorry if you do.

The opinion Of many here in Grand

this is purely commercial age, in
which the higher ideals Of life are
forgotten in the rush for wealth. It

WOOD COUNTY AT ITS BEST

To say that Wood county is better
this fall than ever before is Self-evi-
dent. To say less would be to
pronounce the death Of the institu-
tion. Where there is life there is
growth. Those who have seen the
many years Of Wood county in Grand
Rapids will agree that the growth has
been as rapid as good, sturdy health
could allow.
While the mercha ndise, SO far as
space is concerned, cannot really
grow except by condensation, it IS
wonderful what necessity can contriye
in the way Of creating space where
there is none. Many Of the merchan-
disc lines are greater and broader than
ever before. Everywhere there Is a
satisfying fullness in variety which
is amply shown by most careful COM
parison, to students of fashion as we'll
as experts in merchandise. Winter
stocks will continue to arrive for
weeks to come, but the vast new lines
already here compose matter Of
compelling interest to our public
these Fall mornings.

President Roosevelt has issued his letter of acceptance as the Republican candidate for the of. flee of the presidency of the Uni ted States. Thie letter is only another illustration of the type of man the president has shown himself to be as at one time a police commissioner in the City ot New York, as assistant secre- tary of the navy III the lamented McKinley's cabinet, as one ofthe orga nizers of the historic a 1 Rough Riders. as Lieutenant Colonel of the Rough Riders, as governor of the great Emrire State, as vice-president of the United States, and as the Chief magistrate of this Great and Glorious Commonwealth" His letter is undisputably one of the best state and argumentative documents ever issued by a chief executive. Every American citi- zen, no matter what his political inclinations maybe, should read and digest this thoroughly con- vincing state paper.
