INTELLIGENCE
SHIPS TO REPORT
TO WEATHER BUREAU.

On the back of the North Atlantic
pilot chart for December, issued by
the photographic Bureau of the United
governing the use of the naval coast
wise wireless telegraph stations, es-
tablished in accordance with a recent
order Of the Navy Department. In ex-
PLANTATION of the order connecting the
photographic Office with the Weather
Bureau, the following instructions to
shipmasters have been issued:
THAT the Weather Bureau of the
Department of Agriculture furnish to
the photographic office of the navy
and to the naval wireless telegraph
stations, or to other portions of the
public service, such meteorological data
as it or they may desire at no cost to
them.
That all meteorological reports from
vessels of war or commerce or other
sailing craft, now being forwarded di-
rect to the hydrograp hic Office of the
navy, shall be forwarded direct to the
Weather Bureau, and the control of
ocean meteorology be transferred to
the Department Of Agriculture, which
already has ample law for doing this
work.
That the estimates for the support
of the photographic Office of the navy,
or any other office of the navy, for
the next and succeeding fiscal years
do not contain any provision for the
making of ocean forecasts or for the
publication of meteorological data,
other than such as may be needed BY
the photographer of the navy for use
on the pilot and other charts, which
data shall be furnished by and credited
to the Weather Bureau"

on July 29, 1904, and directed that its
recommendations be put into effect. The
provisions of this executive order APP
plying to the photographic Office go
into effect Dec. l. 1904.

Much complaint is being made along
the river of the number OF logs and
pieces of timber that recently have
been adrift, coming from above the
city though, no one seems to know,
from what particular source. This
hotsam is a serious menace to vessels
in the harbor, as is shown by the fact
that within short time the Regis had
its propeller damaged so that 1t be-
came necessary to haul the boat on
Rourke's marine railway and put on

suffered from the same cause. an ac-

But it happens that have known the
nominee in question all my life. We
attended the same school and grew up
in daily contact And declare to you
that every man who knows the nominee
is eager and anxious to declare that a
greater injustice was never done can
didate for any Office than that being
done to this gentleman by these cheap
penny-a-l liners. Clean in body, clean
in mind, pure in heart, fearless in the
discharge of every duty, with no master
but his own sense of right and justice;
a full-orbed man, patriotic, unpurchase-
able and unimpeachable, standing head
and shoulders above the hirelings who
seek to malign him, is the republican
nominee for governor of our state.
Many honest and intelligent men diff
fer from him on the question of primary
reform. A law such as he favors might
be bad law. But / would infinitely
rather trust good man with bad law
than bad man with a good law
1t is noticeable that even the men
who oppose some of Fred NJ Warner
views do not question the character nor
the capacity of the man for governor of
the state. Mr.. Warner has been an
efficient secretary of state, his admins
tration of the Office having been clean
and clear throughout. He is success
full, self-made business man, and among
his neighbors his word is as good as his
bond, something to be depended upon.
Mr.. Warner is also practical farmer
who has done as much as any one man
to advance agriculture, the owner and
operator of several cheese factories, for
years the head of the state dairymen's
association. He is hard worker and
a representative of toll employing many
men and working as hard as any of
them. In his intercourse with others
he is kindly and transformations, neither
opinionated, bumptious, arrogant nor
vain. He is always courteous, and has
not met abuse with abuse, nor unjust
attacks by vindictive reprisals.
These qualities are emphasized here
because distinctly valuable in the
equipment of a governor. A governor
should have tact as we'll as talent, the
faculty for dealing with men and af-
fairs, tie knowledge of great interests
such as agriculture and labor, and the
personal sympathy with all who are en-
gagged therein.
furthermore he should be courteous
and fair, meeting all matters and all
men upon their merits. Mr.. Warner
combines these essentials, and is of the
material from which good governors are
made. Even the opposition leaders do
not question his character and capacity.

President Roosevelt's speech accepting

1.-THE present phenomenal prosperity

a Young Mans Candidate.

Ii is estimated that there are at leas,
seyen hundred young men in Shiawas
zee county who will cast their first bal
lot this year. The proportion of the
sntire vote which will be cast by voters
who have not passed their thirty year
mile stone, if counted, would surprise
even the best student of statistics in the
county, or those who pay the closest at
sention to practical county politics. No
party would hope to attain success
without the vote of the young men, but
it is not always that the young men are
taken into consideration when the party
nominations are being made. The
ticket for which Shiawassee republicans
are asking votes this fall must be adj
mitted by everyone to show an unusual
lythorough appreciation of the part
played by the younger republicans in
winning party successes.
The most important and the best pay
ing county Office is that of sheriff. Just
how renumerative the Office is THE
TINES is unable to state-certainly the
office has cost the county enough dur
ing the present democratic administra-
ton to have been lucrative to someone
but, conducted with the utmost econo-
my this Office pays the holder the
most of any Office within the county's
gift. On the other hand, when the
goods or perhaps even the lives of any
Of Shiawassee's citizens are in danger
the county expects the most vigorous
and effective measures for their protec-
tion which any man can take. And
wten robbery, or some worse crime, has
been committed. the county expects its
sheriff to leave undone no effort which
ingenuity can devise or vigorous man

man who will use good judgment, who
will be careful of the expenses of the
county, as though it were his own bust
ness 1t is an Office of this Importance,
this responsibility, and this renumera-
ion for which the republicans have this
year nominated the youngest man who
ever ran for the Office of sheriff of Shia-
wassee county.
From the above it is evident that in
the nomination of Chas. w. Mimic for
sheriff the republicans of the county
have paid the highest compliment to
the young men of the party which it is
possible for them to pay. Mr.. Mimic is
young mans candidate and every
young man, whether casting his first
vote or whether he has already been
privileged to cast ballot in three OF
four presidential elections, should show
the appreciation which he has for the
appreciation shown by the party for
him by doing all in his power to swell
Mr.. Minto's majority. There are of
course higher reasons why the young
voter should place himself in republi-
can ranks this year. To belong to a
party with such leader as Theodore
Roosevelt is something of which any
man may well be proud. To know that
in Shiawassee county the party of
Roosevelt and Fairbanks, the party of
Mckinley and Hanna, of Garfield,
Grant, Lincoln and all the other pa
triots of whom the world is so proud
today TO know that that party appre-
ciates their worth should make every
young man in the county doubly proud
to be called a republican. To vote the
ticket bearing the names of Roosevelt,
Fordney, of our farmer-business man
candidate for governor, Fred M. Warner,
of Charles w. Mimic, the young mans
candidate for sheriff, young man
born on the farm, who through his own
efforts educated himself and pushed his
own way successward, is an honor and
privilege which every young man in
Shiawassee should be proud to avail
himself of. To belong to party which
freed Cuba from the Spaniard, which is
educating the Filipino and ensuring him
the rights and justice guaranteed to our
own citizens, which gave rural free de-
livery to the farmers of our country,
and is now building the Panama canal
in fact to belong to and be appreciat-
ed by the members of the party which
has made America honored among the
nations of the world is an opportunity
of which the young man of today may
well be proud.
Then let the seven hundred FIRST vot-
ers" in Shiawassee, many of whom come
from the farms, and let the hundreds of
other voters still in their early years,
show their appreciation of the honor
done them by the nomination of the
Youngest candidate ever named in this
county for sheriff and honor themselves
and the memory of those who served
the party in the years gone by by vot-
ing the entire ticket, from top to bot
tom, which bears the name of Charles
w. Mimic for sheriff.

clearly shown than in its reference to S.

were formerly republicans but most of
whom left the party for purely personal

Warner For Governor.

Fred Nj. Warner is the soul of integ-
rity in all his dealings, public or pri-
vatc, and deception is not one of the
component parts of his makeup. Ann
Arbor Courier Register.
Everybody who knows Mr.. Warner
agree that he is an honorable, upright,
conscientious business man, broad
minded and highminded-every day the
same genial gentleman who has sue
ceeded in life because he deserves to,
and utterly incapable of being controll-
ed by railroads or any other of the
numerous hoodoos with which hysteri-
cal politicians attempt to stampede pub
lie opinion. Pontiac Gazette.
The republicans are exceedingly
fortunate in their nominee for COVER
nor. The fact that Mr. Warner is being
made the special target for the malign-
ant and lying abuse of the Detroit News
and Detroit Tribune is rather to his
credit than otherwise. Pretty much
every prominent and useful republican
in Michigan has experienced the same
treatment from the Scripps paper ever
since James E. Scripps had paper. 1t
raises no presumption whatever against
Mr.. Warner, but it puts him in the
class with all the good men whom the
party has honored for many years past.
The torrent of abuse they are pouring
upon him is inordinate and incessant,
and outrages in it's rancor and men
dacity; but it is very noticeable in it all
| that there are no accusations of wrong
doing, no specifications whatever, but
only general denunciation born of
malice. There is nothing of which they
can accuse Mr.. Warner and not single
act or neglect that has been or can be
alleged to his discredit. -Coldwater
Courier.
We have in this campaign the singu-
lar condition of a concerted, determin-
ed, malignant warfare waged against a
man of whom his enemies cannot allege
single accusation of wrong doing, in
either his public and official capacity,
or in his private and personal relations.
1t is certainly very remarkable thing,
that in all the vindictive assaults hurled
against the Hon. Fred NJ. Warner by
the Scripps' newspapers, his record
should be so clean, his character so in
vulnerable to their assaults, that they
can find no wrong action, and no blam-
able failure to act, anywhere to fasten
upon him. But such is the character
of our candidate for governor, and such
is the character of his enemies, that in
spite of that they can continue to en-
ploy against him the contemplate tao
tics of insinuation and innuendo and
baseless improbable assertion that he
will in the future prove false to all
promise of his past.-Lapeer Clarion.
At Jackson Labor Day Rev. James
MCGEE of that city, who delivered an
address during the program for the

tribute to Hon. Fred M. Warner, re-
publican candidate for governor:
For some weeks past l have been

papers on the character and integrity
