circuit court. in foreclosure and sale Of
the lands for taxes.
There will be absolutely no reason
for mans property being sold if he re-
ceives this notice as it is warning
that his property is included in the tax
sales. Cong. Fordney has had much ex-
perience in the tax business as an own
er and has seen the injustice of many
cases, where man had paid his tax
and through errors in making receipts
or returns or in the setting aside of
taxes after payment and the reassess-
ment, unknown to the owner, tax
again becomes lien and the property
lost through no real fault of the owner;
he further realized that an owner
might pick up paper with a large
number of descriptions of land in and
not being acquainted with technical
descriptions look for his own land and
fail to find it, but by receiving per-
sonal notice he would be brought to
look up his tax and description and be-
come so well acquainted with it that it
would be a benefit to him in years to
come as we'll as save him the 100 per
cent penalty for the current year.
Mr.. Fordney kept track of this mat
ter, although absent from home, and
urged its passage and in his usual broad
minded way did not attempt to make a
local measure of it but secured its bene-
fits to all parts Of the state.

The request made by the secretary or
she national treasury that an unneces-
sary light should be turned down may
have little effect in decreasing the de-
ficiency which suggested it, but the re-
quest was splendidly worth while. Sec-
ratary Shaw's idea of economy was that
It should begin at once and with little
things as well as the great. Many
thousands of dollars could be saved to
she state of Michigan if those who have
charge of our state institutions should
become possessed of Secretary Shaw's
turn down the light" idea of economy.
The people of Michigan have no desire
that the expenditure of state money in
any respect shall be niggardly or made
anate, but they should expect that ev-
cry dollar will be made to do the fullest
possible service. The funds which go
from our state treasury have in turn
come from many taxpayers who found
ithard to meet the states requirement.
It is true every taxpayer of Michigan
receives full and generous value for the
contribution he makes to the mainte-
nance of state institutions and the
movements of state affairs. But that
TACT does not lessen the duty of every
guardian of state funds to regard his
trust with jealous care. Properly in
serpreted Secretary Shaw contributed
an eloquent and practical maxim to all
participants in national and state affairs
through his request that the. light be
turned down. Cadillac News and Ex-
