will be pushed against Bozeman. Two

A Greater Grand Rapids" edition
of the Evening Press of Grand Rap
ids, Mich, has reached us. 1t tells a
story of the wonderful progress of
the middle west. Such an edition
sent to all parts OF the country means
much for Grand Rapids. 1t carries
to the outside world a knowledge of
just what a great city Michigan has
and what it is bound to become. The
Press is to be congratulated upon its
enterprise, but more than all, Grand
Rapids is to be congratulated upon
having such a thoroughly up-to-date
newspaper as the Press. 1t is often
said the prosperity of a city can be
judged best by the character of its
press. The Evening Press sets a
standard hard to surpass.

directed. | believe there are enough
republicans of the Abraham Lincoln
type who are ready to forget fac
tional elements and rally under a
banner that bears no individual en-
blem, but stands for the whole party
and aims to promote the public good.
Let us work together to that end"
Right here we are reminded of the
treatment given last fall to those
delegates to the republican county,
convention who refused to bow the
knee to Boss Strong. They were abb
solutely ignored by Strong's ring"
Every suggestion they offered was
hooted down, yet the very planks
that those so-called Fordyce delegates
endeavored to have placed in the re-
publican county platform last fail,
and which were ridiculed by the
ring" are to be found embodied in
Governor Stokes message today.
Nothing but abuse, both personal
and otherwise, was heaped upon the
men who had dared the ring" all
during the last campaign. Only 4
day or two ago Boss Strong's own
personal organ, the New Brunswick;
Home News, published one of the
most puerile editorials concerning
| Colonel Fordyce that has yet APP
peared. When the colonel was look
ing for property in New Brunswick
for the purpose of residing there,
this same personal mouthpiece rushed
into print with the information that
the colonel had better stay away as
he was an outcast and people would
refuse to recognize him on the street.
In short, the Home News told him lie
would not be welcome.
How ridiculous all this is, yet it
seems to be the policy of the so
called regulars. A little inquiry
would convince anyone that Colonel
Fordyce's friends are not as scarce
as his enemies wish. The Home
News, by keeping up this abuse,
thinks it is serving the republican
ring" and perhaps it is-we do not
know; but we do know that such
tactics will never unite the republic
can party in Middlesex county, neither
will 1t lessen the danger which Gov
ernor Stokes so clearly sees.
Governor Stokes learns a lessol
for the entire state in the result in
Essex, Hudson and Passaic counties
last fall, and if he was a Middlesex
county man he would readily see a
lesson in the election of a democratic
senator here, when all the rest of
the county ticket went republican,
But Governor Stokes is a much big
| ger man than the ~so-called repub.
lican leader in Middlesex.

FRIDAY, JANUARY Il.
THE GOVERNOR SEES DANGER
AHEAD.

Governor Stokes can read the signs
of the times much better than many
of the other leaders in the republican
party. The governor can see the peo-
PIE back of the demand for reform,
he knows that they will not stand for
t'ring rule" and corporation control
of those in office. He sees, in the
wonderful results in the northern
counties, an independence on the part
of the voters.
The days of the political party as
Va great power are fast fading. Par
Ties we must always have, but merely
as a means to an end. Men have
ceased to be republicans or democrats
because their fathers we're. They re
fuse to follow blindly the party lead
lership and vote fer any candidate the
bosses may select. The governor re-
alizes<these things, and in the second
letter to- be made public, in which
he declines to enter the senatorial
race, he comments upon the situa-
tion as follows:
81 cannot see where my entrance
4 into the senatorial race can do any
{ thing but harm. have other
thoughts in my mind. No good re
publican can today be blind to the
: serious condition of our party. With
no apparent spirit OF unity or har-
mony. it Is split into factional divi-
sions, each anxious for its own SUI
/ premacy. The result of the elections
( in Essex. Hudson and Passaic can
not be lightly dismissed as tempo
rarv reverses that win right them
selves next year. They contain a
warning that must be needed. 1t is
time for the loyal party spirit to
come Il the front with a program
broad enough and with a charity wide
enough to unite the rank and file.
Together with others, | hope to be
able to aid in this necessary move
ment. This | cannot do if my every
effort to this end is under the sus-
picion of senatorial scheming. 1t is
only when this idea is eliminated
from the public mind that a hope
to be at all useful in aiding in the
work for harmony.
II believe in party organization
am an organization man, but have
no sympathy with that policy which
would pervert the organization from
what il should be-a body of concili-
alton and elaboration for the party
oood-into a machine for the ad
yancement of individual, factional o.
private interest. 1t is folly to tall
of disciplining those who do not agree
with us in party matters. Such al
attitude is not regularity or part,
loyalty, but party destruction. Z
party cannot succeed without votes
The sovereign voter cannot be dis
ciplined. You a only appeal t
IFS il of right and his desire TO
rood government. It is this polio
that makes a party strong.
