DURING the last state campaign III
Michigan much was said OF the value
that would come TO this state through
following the example OF Wisconsin
Illinois and Minnesota and some other
western states in matters IF legislation
and state affairs. Reports are to the
effect that Governor Deneen, of Illinois,
regards the primary election legislation
recently enacted i'm Michigan as much
better adopted to meet the demand that
induced it than will the legislation for the
same purpose enacted i'm Illinois. 1t IS
also stated that Governor LaFollette has
recently sent 20 the Wisconsin legislature
a special message urging the passage IN
his state OF a bin relating 10 railroad
affairs similar toa bin recently enacted
i'm Michigan. SOFT would seem that in
the directions most talked o. throughout
the last state campaign Michigan is set
ting examples that are approved and fol
lowed bv both Illinois and Wisconsin.

II those who have been most active in
their criticism of Gov Warner and the
present legislature are yet sufficiently in
terested to look up the matter or make
any inquiries they will find that most of
the undesirable bills, the passage OF which
they boldly predicted, are now lying in
the legislative waste basket. Most Of the
disappointment thus far caused by Gov.
Warner is to those who opposed him and
who expected their campaign prophecies
to be fulfilled.

ATHLETES TO BE PROSECUTED.
A. 4. U. to Raise . Fund for bringing
Shady Amateurs to Justice.

Prominent officials Of the A. A. L. have
planned the introduction Of a scheme at the
national convention next November which
they are of opinion will stop athletes from
competing under assumed names and at
unsanctioned meets. The plan Is to inaug-
urate fund to be devoted to the purpose
OF prosecuting athletes found guilty OF i'm
personaton and who have previously con-
tested with or against pro roiessionals and who
afterward try to pose as amateurs assuming
another name for the purpose. Acquiring
money or goods In other walks Of life by false
pretenses is a public msde Msanor. and legal
authorities assert that the same law applies to
athletic sport. 1t is legal offense in Eng
land. and freq uently athletes have been
brought up in c. ourt for winning prizes under
conditions contrary to the laws OF amateur
athletics.
The same methods will he tried here, A, A.
L. officials say. and from the arguments
they Offer they reef, 10 be ell posted on ti,c
laws OF the land. The cause Of this step by
the A. A. L. officials is the frequent offensss
by registered athletes In competing at pic

year q number OF the metropolitan athletes
have been making the rounds OF the unsanc-
toned meets, and though they little d rea med
