what About Home Coming Week.


The time is drawing near when
the people of Paw Paw should
again begin TO think about home
coming week. We know there
has been a disposition on the
part of some to discourage the
home coming for this year. We
certainly think that is an error.
The annual home coming week
has been a delightful event for
Paw Paw and one to which not
only we, but our friends living
away from here as well, look
forward to each year with fond
anticipation. In fact, it is the
event in all the year in Paw Paw.
In our opinion, should the mat
ter be dropped for the year, it
will pe dead beyond resurrection.
We published letter last week
from |. j. Cummings to Hon. p.
H. Kelley of Lansing, and Mr..
Kelley's reply to the same. Mr..
Cummings idea was to make an
effort to have home coming week
a state affair, and Mr.. Kelley's
reply would indicate that he
favored the plan. He also signi-
fed his willingness to address
his many friends in Paw Paw at
that time.
OF course we realize that there
is considerable work connected
with the home coming each year,
but what is there that could be
substituted for so little money
and an equal amount of labor
that would take the place of the
same. This idea originated with
Paw Paw, and we were the first
town in the state to hold a home
coming week. Each succeeding
year has brought more people
here and has made the event a
greater success. We should en-
ter into the spirit Of the affair
again this year with renewed
energy and a determination to
make this one even better than
any before. A meeting will
probably be called the first Of
April to effect an organization
and to discuss the matter. In
the meantime, talk with your
neighbors and friends about it.
Let the matter be discussed free
ly, but in any event do not let
the year 1907 go by without a
home coming week.

The Amendment should Carry.

An amendment of vital import
ance to every citizen will be
voted on at the coming spring
election. 1t is an amendment
striking from the constitution
the section which provides that
convicts shall not be taught a
mechanical trade" Under a re
cent decision Of the supreme
court, cOnvicts cannot be COM
PEELED by their labor to defray
the expense of the prison. 1t is
doubtful, under the decision of
the court, whether they will even
be permitted to make their pri.
son clothes and shoes. Governor
Warner and Legislature desire to
install a binder Irvine plant at
the Jackson prison. The trusts.
Of course, oppose this measure,
and would undoubtedly resort to
a legal fight to prevent it. A
constitutional amendment would
settle the matter for all time.
The fact that the trusts oppose
this measure is sufficient reason
for every voter to vote for the
amendment. There is no reason
why the state prisons and penal
institutions should not be self
supporting. The amendment
should carry by an overwhelm-
ing majority.

Representative Simpson Again "Makes
Good"

Representative Simpson has
again demonstrated that he is
the right man in the right place.
His "pet measure, bill to
make railroads common carriers
of live stock, has passed both
the senate and house of repre-
sentatives and only needs the
signature of Governor Warner
to become a law. This law will
compel railroads to carry live
stock, whereas now they accept
or refuse to receive such freight
at their own will. Mr.. Simpson
introduced this bill two years
ago, but it was killed in the SEN
ate. He promised the railroad
constituents, however, at that
time that he would come back in
1907 with the same bill and would
secure its passage. His success
is doubtless pleasing to him and
likewise gratifying to his many
Van Buren, county friends.

The Cuban Question.

William E. Curtis, in the Chi
cago Record Herald, speaking of
the American occupation of Gu
ba, says:
1--WE cannot withdraw from
Cuba now without the consent of
European powers. We have as
sumed responsibility for the pro
lection of the lives and property
of their subjects in this island and
therefore President Roosevelt is
not a free agent in his Cuban
policy"
1t is time that the United
States has become responsible
for Cuban peace and tranquility
and there is no likelihood that
this government will shirk its
responsibility in the matter. But
when the time comes, if it ever
does, to transfer control of the
island to Cuban authorities we
very much douot about the pres
idents asking permission of Eu-
ropean powers. The chances
are that President Roosevelt will
not take Mr. Curtis view of the
question, but will consider that
he is a free agent and will do
as he pleases in the matter.
The truth is that Cuba should
belong to the United States and
that such is her manifest desti-
ny. She should have been an
nexed at the close Of the Spanish
war and it was only for senti-
mental reasons that she was not
Annexation would have been bet
ter for both Cuba and the United
States.

Shortest Billiard MStch la Which

strangers and people unknown TO.
Schaefer naturally strolled In many,
too, who probably did not know him.
But 1t made no difference to Schaefer.
Sometimes strangers would desire to

would never do. To all such propo-
:sitions he would say, No. / won't

s.One day an old farmer entered the
place, and after wandering about look
ing at the pictures on the walls and
examining the tables he asked II there
was any one present who would like
to play him a game Of billiards.
Schaefer, as usual, said that he would
play the stranger.
How much shall we play for?'
asked the farmer.
..'I never play for money, replied
Schaefer, but i win play you for the
drinks for the house.
"'tAll right, said the farmer. How
many points shall we play
".Oh,' replied Schaefer demurely in
all the consciousness of his superior
powers, wen just play until you are
satisfied, and we; will call that a
game
s.The crowd smiled as the players
prepared for the contest. The balls
We're placed on the table, and Schaefer
brought out his favorite cue, and it
fell to his lot to open the game, .
taThe opening shot in q billiard game
is "a somewhat difficult one, as most
players know, and Schaefer, probably
through Indifference, missed it He
not only missed 1t, but left the balls
close together near one Of the cush-
ions. It was what is termed In bill
lard parlance a set up
1.-THE old farmer carefully chalked
his cue and after deliberation made
the shot. He then gazed at the balls a
moment, laid down his cue and ex-
claimed:
&"I am satisfied s7
'"The score was then ! to 0 in favor
Of the old farmer, but as schaefer
had agreed to make the game as long

to be satisfied. schaefer Of course
had to invite all present, including his
conqueror, to partake Of the hospital

and drank Schaefer remarked that the
game was the shortest he had ever
played and probably the shortest on
record" 81.

dealing with the matter, he had the.
satisfaction of securing its approval
for the American project with the
exception of one paragraph referring
to the allotment of judges.
u In powerful speech, Mr.. Ghoate
urged the committee not to permit
its differences on the matter of the
allotment of judi es to interfere with
the solemn duty deyolving upon it Of
satisfying the universal demand for
the establishment of such a court.
Mr.. Choate suggested number of
solutions for the difficulty regarding
the judges including a proposal for
tbs election of judges By the whole
conference voting by states, each
state exercising absolute equality. He
maintan.ed that this method would
assure equality Of sovereignty, as
we'll as equality in other respects.
Choate's appeal resulted in the ap.
pointment Of a committee to examine
the question of allotment of judges.
This committee will meet septem-
Der 10. 1t has been decided the judi
ges are to receive a fixed salary of
$2,4O0 a year and in addition $40
day while sitting.

Ject. which provided that the high
court yearly. shall appoint three judi
ges with three substitutes constitut-
ing a special tribunal, which can if
necessary, try cases elsewhere than

so as to give the three judges the
name of special delegation, instead
of special tribunal" The whole
court will be called the court of ar
