Statements made in several news
papers, last week, that the cost to the
state of providing for the inmates of the
several Michigan asylums for the in
sane had been increased one cent. per
day for each patient, at the recent joint
meeting of asylum boards, would have
been correct if a directly opposite de-
elaration had been made. The truth is
that decrease of one cent per day for
each inmate was decided on at the
recent meeting referred to, saving TO
the state of more than $1S 600, and this
cut in the cost of maintaining asylum
patients followed similar cut made by
theAsam( BOARD one year ago. The total
saving to the Taxpayers of the state
through these two reductions will be
nearly $4,000. Governor Warner is a
member of the joint asylum board and
has been influential in urging economy,
but the credit for the reduction in
asylum expense belongs as well to the
members of the asylum boards and to
The asylum arrangements.

1t was more than apparent to the
most casual observer in Detroit at the
republican state convention on Tuesday
that Representative Chas. E. Ward, of
this county, is generally regarded as be-
ing the leading candidate for speaker of
the next house in case he is re- nominal
ed and reelected. From members of
the last legislature who hope to be re-
turned and from prospective members
he was given encouragement and as
surances of support.

Yuma has a numOer or warm days during the year, but this fact, so far from being detri- ment, is one of the farmers most valuable assets. However, the extremely hot days are really very few in number. The obser- vations recorded at the station cover a period of thirty years, and show that there were only three only three or four days each year on which the ther- mometer rose above 112 degrees. When the dryness of the atmos- phere is considered, even-112 de grees is by no means oppressive certainly not nearly so oppres- sive as 90 degrees in such a hu- md atmosphere as that of New York. Next, taking the other extreme, I found that, similarly, only on three or four occasions each year does the thermometer touch 32 degrees, and then only for a few minutes in the early morning. So Yuma may fairly be described as having not only the ideal climate for it's proper products, but a most delightful climate for lover of genial warmth and sunshine the whole year round.
 Interesting Sights at Yuma.
 As a place of visit ny the tour ist, Yuma, mainly because of these climatic exaggerations, has in the past been grievously neg lected, but in reality it is one of the most interesting places in the southwest at which to make a stop of few days. The Yuma Indian reservation, the Indian school on the commanding site of the old Fort Yuma. with the original buildings still in use; the old Commissary on the river bank with it's loop-holed walls of adobe, and immense storehouses now utilized by the government reclamation service; the big pen itentiary on the hill, to which admission may be gained, and where those who study will find much to interest them; the beau
 tiful citrus groves on the mesa; the thriving farming lands in the valley, with their varied prob lens of fascinating interest to every agriculturist; the govern ment experimental station, where over 50 varieties of dates are be- ing grown. The above surely affords programme varied enough and attractive enough for most sight-seers. Then there is the Colorado river itself, of wonderful beauty and ever fasci- hating charm. Aud lastly, the little town looks up towards the north on a panorama of mountain scenery of unsurpassed grand
 eur-range massed beyond range.

A Libeled Climate.

The Yuma region has been much belied on the score of eli mate, principally because of a number of more or less humor- ous stories that have pretty well gone the round of the world and have identified the name of the place with a certain region that is unmentionable. But, while from my intimate knowledge of the arid regions of the southwest I already knew much of this to be libel, I went to the special pains of Investigating the point, and from the records of the gov ernment meteorological station found the charge to be a most unfounded one.
