MURDER THEORY EXPLODED.
Officers Find Evidence That Wife of
Hardy Committed the Deed.


Hardy Committed the Deed.
Homer, Mich, March 10.-After an
exhaustive investigation into the the
cries of murder which have been re-
Gently advanced in the Hardy case,
Prosecuting Attorney Hooper and
Deputy Sheriff Gibbs have come to the
conclusion that there is not sufficient
evidence to warrant any belief but
that it was a case Of murder and sui
eide by Mrs. Hardy, as the coroners
jury found.
The explanation is that Mrs. Hardy
first shot her husband, holding the
revolver in her right hand-informa-
ton from a brother and from her
former husband, Convict Hardy, show
ing that she was not left-handed, as
has been claimed-that she then got
up, wiped the blood from him, laid him
out as he was found on the bed, with
his hands folded across his breast, and
that she then crawled back into bed
and shot herself.

The nomination of Judge Vernon H..
Smith, of Ionia. as the!democratic candi-
date for justice of the supreme court,
in opposition to Judge Joseph II. Moore,
the republican candidate, gives place in
the contest to man who although an
aggressive partisan is well worthy of
the distinction conferred by his party.
1t will therefore be necessary for the
republicans of Michigan to give time
and attention to the contest before them
in order to insure for their own state
nominees the desirably large majority
of which they are IN every way deserv-
ing.

There seems to be a general mis-
understanding as to the position of the
present county officers toward the pro-
posed county salary bill. AS we under
stand it all of the officers favor such a
bill. Their opposition to the bill which
recently. passed and which has since
been recalled from the Governor, was
on the ground that the details Of the
bill were too cumbersome The main
provision to which objection was made
was the one requiring the payment of
all fees to the county treasurer before
any business could be transacted with
any county officer. The officers contend,
and we believe they are right, that this
plan would often involve the loss OF
much time to taxpayers who have bust
ness to do in the several offices and that
extra clerks would be required in the
treasurers Office to do the work prompt
ly. The fees can be paid at each office
and record kept to be checked by the
proper committees from the board Of
supervisors.

Before the present council turns over
the administration of city affairs to its
successor THE TIMES hopes to see it
take one matter from the table, where
il has laid for several months and dis
pose of it as it should be disposed Of
The matter referred to is the ordinance
relating to the use of slot machines in
this city. The ordinance as drawn
up, read, placed on its passage, and then
tabled, makes it unlawful for any per-
son to permit the use of any slot ma
chine or other gambling device i'll any
building owned by him and declares
the owner of any building in which the
use of such gambling machine is placed
where it can be used is disorderly per-
son subject to fine or imprisonment. 1t
applies the same penalty to any person
allowing such machine to be placed in
any room or building occupied or leased
by him. 1t further provides for the
seizure and destruction of these ma
chiAes by the police wherever they are
found so placed that they can be used
by persons visiting the place where they
are kept 1t is designed throughout to
provide an effective means whereby the
officers can put an end to the outrageous
swindling perpetrated by these ma
chimes. 1t is admitted on all sides that
the ordinance now supposed to be in
force is inadequate to Danish these de-
vices and provide punishment severe
and certain enough to restrain people
from their use. The bad influence of
slot gambling machines on our boys and
younger men is generally admitted and
is certainly bad enough, but it is equal
" bad on many older men who con-
tribute to the machines many dollars
worth of cents and nickels during the
year which their families could make
more than merely good use of. The ma
chimes are in every sense and from
whatever point of view they are looked
at, disgrace to the city, and it is GER
tainIy to be hoped that the present
council will not permit them to also be
permanent disgrace to its own record
by leaving this measure on the table
where it has been since the 3lst of Oc-
tober. Let the slot machine ordinance
be passed unanimously and be given an
Immediate trial. The council can
scarcely do an act which will bring
more commentator to itself.

Through the annual report of the
Michigan commissioner of insurance
it is shown that only 46 percent of the
total premiums collected in this state
on fire risks were paid out on loss &C.
count during the past year. This is
about the same favorable showing in
the matter of loss to premium collec-
tions as was reported for the two pre-
ceding years, and would seem to entitle
Michigan to good standing from a fire
insurance rate-makers' point of view
and to as favorable treatment as due APP
probation of that good thing would
naturally suggest.
