Sciota gave Cong. Townsend one re-
publican vote for governor, the second
ward, of Owosso, one for Zip" At
wood, one of the Vernon precincts
one for Arthur Hill for the same office,
while in Venice one republican named
S. E. Parkill for the governorship. In
Sciota one vote was cast for w. M. XII
patrick for lieutenant governor.
The total vote cast for p. H. Kelley
for lieutenant governor by the republi-
cans is just about 1000. S. E. Parkill
received about 30 votes for the same
Office on the democratic ticket.
The election of delegates to the party
conventions caused the election inspec-
tors plenty of work with even light
vote, SC many different persons being
voted for. With anything like full
vote the inspectors would have required
day extra to record the will of the
voters. The work of counting made fun
for the inspectors owing to the careless
ness of the voters in writing names of
delegates. many of them in the city
voting for persons not living in the
ward, sometimes residents of all the
wards being named on the same ballot,
while no attention was paid to party
lines. The voters will have to be edu-
Gated along this line before the selection
of delegates in this manner will be an
entire success.

Political Gossip.

Even Railroad Commissioner Atwood
has protest to make against one of
William Alden's recent statements. In
his Grand Rapids speech William AL
den said: II have also been warned to
stay out of the race. Some time ago
the head of the machine came to me
and he said: Now, be a good boy and
you can have anything you want.
But I said, No, Mr.. Atwood. You
can't give me anything because I could
not accept it at the hands of the ma
chine. Nor can you take away any
thing that 1 now possess. Great and
prolonged applause.)"
Mr. Atwood was asked if he had be-
gun peddling the senatorial toga about
the state, as here intimated. His reply
was:
II stand for great deal without
kicking, but | won't stand for that
statement of Mr.. Smiths. 1t is not
only falsehood, but it is very unkind
for it was made evidently for the de-
liberate purpose of exciting the people
to whom he was talking, and making
himself a hero at somebody's expense.
"The fact Of the matter is that when
1 talked with Mr.. Smith on the subject
some time ago, he asked me what 1
thought of the campaign. 1 frankly
told him didn't know what the details
of the situation were but that 1 was
convinced no western man could be
elected this year. made absolutely no
promise or threat of any kind, and
made no attempt at bargain. How
could I?"-Saginaw Courier Herald.
The announcement from Grand Ra-
pids that Sheridan f. Master may Sc
cure federal appointment in that city
revives the temporarily quiet booms of
several candidates for speaker, but the
contest seems thus far to be divided be-
tween Nicholas Whelan, of Ottawa, and
Charles E. Ward, of Shiawassea
Mr.. Whelan was speaker pro tenn of
the last house, to which position he was
elected unanimously, although he was
not an active candidate, and other men
had been active. The movement for
Whelan started up the night the choice
was made, and was carried with enthu-
siasm. Mr.. Whelan's strength as a leg
islator seemed very largely made up of
his personal popularity, and he will
make telling campaign for the speak
ership.
Rep. Charles E. Ward was the chair
man of. the house committee on ways
and means, the hardest. worked of all
committees. To Mr.. Ward was COM
mitted the dear hope of the administra-
ton, the work of economy in appropria-
tons This was the hardest task before
the last legislature, and Speaker Master
would appoint no member to this com.
mittee who had a state institution in his
district. Some estimates for appropria-
tions were excessive and even absurd.
and where former legislatures had been
generous and kind, the 1905 house COM
mittee on ways means was strict and

a Big Step Forward.

The primary election Tuesday marks
another era in self government in
Michigan. The vote throughout the
state was practically unanimous for the
complete adoption of the new system
whereby the people themselves will
place their candidates in nomination for
the various offices. True the vote was
not an exceptionally large one, but that
is seldom true of any caucuses. The
most remarkable thing about it was the
unanimity of the vote cast. A MAORI
ty of eightyfive per cent of all who had
interest enough to express their opinions
at all is no ordinary vote and that is
about the majority by which the repub.
lican voters of Michigan in particular
decided that they would continue to
make the nominations for governor and
lieutenant governor themselves without
any intermediary in the shape of state
conventions. They also settled the
questions of permitting the old style
county conventions, senatorial district
conventions, and congressional conven-
tions to do business for them as in
times past by legislating them out Of
business in every case where these ques-
lions were petitioned to be voted on.
The result is splendid victory for the
cause of good politics. Not that the
victory is entirely won and the fruits
all secured, for they are not. There
will be found many places in the new
system which can be improved on with
experience but the main principle has
been indicated. The people have been
given the opportunity of expressing
themselves in an authoritative way on
the subject and they have declared
that they are ready to assume the new
responsibilities and avail themselves Of
the new privileges. They will now
have but the task of further perfecting
the law and correcting the abuses which
are sure to arise, and correcting them
as they arise, before they become deep
rooted and hard to weed out.
HOW Idr Tue ItSullS eAbeuueu JHTOuRu-
out the state may be understood from
the fact that in II state senatorial, 43
state legislative, and eight COMPRESSION
al districts, all in fact where the re-
publican voters had petitioned for the
privilege of voting on the questions, the
new methods were adopted, as said
above, almost unanimously. In the
remaining districts the same priv
lege is still open to the voters to decide
for themselves at the proper time in
the future. In few of the districts
the democrats also showed an interest
in the matter and wherever they had
shown enough interest to enroll and
petition for the privilege of voting on
the questions the new system was put
into force with almost equal accord
an the matter of making the nominal
tons for the county offices by the new
primary plan too, the results were iyst
as decisive wherever the question was
voted on.

county save one gave a majority on
Tuesday for each of the primary propo-

proposition to nominate the governor
and lieutenant governor in the future
was given majority of the votes cast
by all parties in the State. In the Sth

district the republicans also said by
their votes that they would name their
candidates in the future by this method,

An attempt to discredit the primary
law on the ground that no provision is
made to canvass the vote untif Tuesday
next and that there is no method to de-
termine who are elected delegates to
the republican county convention to be
held on Monday, is somewhat laughable
in view of the provision of the primary
law, section five, chapter four, which
says: Said board shall certify to the
county clerk the names of the persons
80 elected as delegates, naming the po-
litical party upon whose ballot such
persons were elected. The board of
election inspectors is required to pub
lilcy declare who are elected as dele
gates. County Clerk Martin will have
list of delegates ready for all parties
when their conventions are held next
week. There may be some flaws in the
primary law, but thisisnot one of them.
