Inc closing OF the sugar making CAM
paign leads to the oft repeated specula-
ton as to whether the results to the in
vestors in the plant are sufficient to
warrant its continued operation, or
whether it will go the way of the fac
tories at Holland, Saginaw, East Ia
was, Rochester and other points. This
has been only fair average season, the
shortage in acreage being most appar-
emit, and the outcome of the decision of
the board of directors will be awaited
with interest. 1t is certainly not very
assuring to the men who have put a
million dollars of good money into the
enterprise to have farmers tributary
to the factory, shipping their beets to
the Bay City factory. If the Caro-
factory goes it will be because the
farmers do not appreciate the market it
affords and if it is removed those farm
.ers will find that it will be an entirely
different proposition to raise beets for
Bay City factory, with factory in
Caro-, and to raise them when this
source of competition has been re-
moved.-Caro Advertiser.
"The admission of Filipino sugar free
of duty may be one of the important
questions before congress at the next
session." said Congressman Fordney
just before leaving for Washington last
week. Il have received letter on the
subject of maintaining the sugar tariff
from A. W. Wright of Alma which has
the true American ring and undoubted-
ly reflects the sentiments of every bust
ness man, wage Garner, farmer and
capitalist in Michigan; and not alone in
Michigan. but of the entire country.
If the Filipino needs assistance we can
give it to him without sacrificing
American interests, by simply allowing
the present tariff to stand, and then
provide that the moneys thus collected
shall be turned back to the Filipino
provisional government for the uplift-
ing and education of the people of those

and industry be protected, as it should
be, while at the same time the Filipino
would be benefited by the operation of
the tariff We should join hands and
try to lift these islanders to our stand
ard of living, instead of lowering our
selves to the Filipino standard
MR.. wRIGHT'S LETTER.
The letter. Mr.. Fordney referred to is
as follows
Dear Sir-To one who has a gen.
eral interest in the prosperity of the
State of Michigan as well as a par
ticular interest in the beet sugar in
dustry, Which is doing so much for its
advancement, the attitude of the adj
ministration toward the Philippines
and the tariff on sugar must be
matter of anxiety.

United States is undoubtedly familiar

Curious Fallacy.

If you don't pay this bill Ill sue
you" man in a crowd on Tenth street,
near Walnut, was heard to remark the
other day.
well, You can't do that, you know"
replied the one addressed I'm mar
ried man"
Where do YOU suppose that fellow
got the idea he could not be sued be-
cause he was married Z" asked a man of
his companion who had overheard the
remark.
'sThat il a popular Illusion among the
working people Of Kansas City, re-
piled the other. 1t originates from
the fact that married man has GER
tain exemptions as to wages and prop
erty that cannot be taken to satisfy
a debt. Ninety per cent of married
mans wages are exempt in this way.
That does not prevent suit being brought
against him, Judgment obtained and his
entire wages tied up by punishment
so tnat he cannot get his 80 per cent
until he comes into court and agrees on
a settlement Of his bill. This exemp-
ton clause gets many persons into trou-
Bile because they think married man
does not have to pay his debts. Mar
Tiage has been discussed from many
sides, but if it brought exemption from
debts and grocery bills there would be
landslide for married life that would
sweep everything before it, Kansas

THE w0MAN's FAULT.

His independence made him proud,
He scoffed at double breasted coats;
Men who to Fashions dictates bowed
He likened to flock of goats
That followed where their leader went
And never knew what freedom meant.
He sneered at men and called them fools
Because they wore clothes a Ia mode;
He laughed at Fashions foolish rules
And chung to shoes that were wide-
toed;
And went around declaring that
A fool was under each stiff hat.
He boosted that he didn't care
What Fashion said was right or
wrong;
He spurned the razor, and his hair
Was ragged and uncombed and long;
The linen collar he eschewed
AS something only for a dude.
A lady smirlxed at him one day
And said silly word or two;
He put his loose old clothes away
And dressed in fine ones that were
new,
Then got his hair cut and shave
And Fashion had another slave

news in rhyme. Last Friday he said:
Old Grandma Idle has the grip,
Also swelling on the lip.
The band played on the square last
night;
The concert can't be called fright.
Mahoney's mule on Sunday died
From sickness somewhere mp inside.
A team ran off with Martin Heck
And like to broke his darn fool neck.
Since Bib began TO court Miss Meek
He wears i clean shirt every week.
At dinner Tuesday Rufus BLY,
While eating beans, ehewed up a fly,
He got quite sick and caused a stir
Twas awful, Rufus did aver.

Old corn juice was the cause Of it.

We hope it won't land him in Jail.

And did not come in out Of rain
OF course we don't mind such attacks

HONESTY THE PROPER DIsTINC-
TION


TlON.
In that document OF President Roose-
welt, which is being called one OF the
longest messages ever delivered, there is
one feature which deserves more com
snent than has been accorded it. The fea.
ture is plea for the tearing down Of
that most odious institution, class dis
tinction. The President is doing all
within his power to remove the fences
which some people are constantly build
ing up between themselves and their
neighbors, fences which viii bar from
ali contact with others not in their
-Nlass. The growth of this spirit, as the
< President well says, has been in the
past the most direful influence among
those influences which have brought
about the downfall Of republics. He
sounds the warning that Ii the spirit
Is allowed to grow up in this republic
it will be fatal, as it has been in many
eases heretofore. TO mintain the proper
relationship between people he urges that
individual worth shall be the fundamental
principle on which to base whatever
distinctions that may be drawn. The
line of cleavage does not run parallel
with occupations but runs at right an
giles; to wage workers from capitalists,
nor farmers from bankers, nor men of
small means from men of large means.
The right line of cleavage in this coun-
try is that which separates the honest
from the dishonest man. The standard
should be that of conduct, not of occu-
patton, of means or of social position.
President Roosevelt points out that it
sis the mans moral quality, his atti-
tude toward the great questions which
concern all humanity, his cleanliness Of
life, his power to do his duty toward
himself and toward others, which really
count" Critics Of President Roosevelt
scoff at him as a teacher, but they will
be forced to admit that in the above he
