SELECT GOOD MEN.

The coming constitutional convention
will be at hand soon and that body shou d
be composed of the very best men that
can be selected in the state. No one
should be sent there simply because they
are good fellows and need the money the
position pays. Brains, sound judgement,
good sense and experience should be the
qualifications required and the three men
possessing them in each senatorial district
should be sought out and pushed to the
front
Montcalm county, for the 9th District,
presents the name of Hon. N. 0. Girls
wold., an attorney at Greenyllle. He is
all right and should receive the nomina-
ton and election. Portland presents the
name Of Justin L. Sutherland. II he is
qualified along the lines above mentioned
The Banner is for him. Otis L. Fuller Of
IONA, if he can be spared from his place
as warden Of the S. n of c. during the
session of the convention would make a
good one the same is true of Judge Frank
d. M. Davis either one of whom possess
all the qualifications in marked degree
Ex-judge V. H. Smith has also been
named. There should be no politics in it.
Belding ought to get together and agree
on some one Of her capable men and push
him to the front.

WEAR 1T HONORABLY.

Our country's military and naval
officials seem to be greatly disturbed over
the fact that men wearing the uniform of
the army or navy are disseminated against
by proprietors OF places Of amusement
and elsewhere. That is not as it should
be, OF course. but doesn't some Of the
fault rest with the wearers of the uni
form. When soldiers exhibit the college
boy sort of lawlessness and assume that
they are privileged to take liberties that
ordinary citizens would not dare to take.
they are making discrimination against
them a matter of self-protection. Mem
bers Of our state troops have been known
to act like hoodlums when out from under
official observation. Wearers of the
uniform we are all so proud of should
not ba Disseminated against because of
the Uniform, neither should they be given

The Real Obstacle at Panama.

The white man at Panama must
avoid that which he cannot endure.
We have proved that he cannot allow
mosquitoes to bite him. and now it
must be acknowledged that he can
not allow the sunlight to strike his
unprotected body.
We eliminated the mosquitoes, but
we cannot eliminate the sun. The
soldier who deliberately and unnec-
essarily exposes himself to bullets
when he could take cover is not only
4 fool, but he is not true soldier.
His fatal recklessness only weakens
he army.
The engineer who can work all day
the open in Michigan or New York
should not do it in Panama. writes an
army surgeon, Maj, Charles Il. Wood
ruff, in Harper's, and if he attempts
il he is injuring the work instead OF
helping it along.

which all citizens are not equally qualified
And this is said without drawing invldlous
distinctions. We think it generally con-
AIDED, where the matter has received
clnsideration, that the legal fraternity IN
their professional capacity are best quail
fad to act as delegates in this convention
because Of their study of the principles OF
law from the time they enter the profess
sion. The Independent takes pleasure IT
nominating for one of the three delegates
from this senatorial district Hon. N. Q

SEES IN MERCHANT A BANDIT.
Respected Citizen Of Houston, Texas,
Identified as a Train Robber.

Galveston, Tex.-Joseph Bertmann,
a respected merchant of Houston, was
confronted the other day by John T.
Dickey, who positively identified him
as one of the robbers who held up a
train and robbed the express com
pany of about $4,000 IS years ago
Dickey was the Wells Fargo express
messenger on the Houston & Texas
Central line and the hold-up took
place on the night Of Sept. "a, 1889,
ten miles south of Fort Worth. Two
men did the work and for a half-hour
the express messenger was face-to-
face with the man who robbed the
safe while his companion covered the
engineer and fireman.
Dickey made a study of this mans
features and voice, and declares he
could recognize either among 1000
men. He has not been in south Texas
for fifteen years and upon entering
Bertmann's store he was astonished
to be greeted by the robber. Bert
man is said to have offered to restore
the amount IL the case be dropped.

The Cream Should Be Cooled and
Aired Immediately After Separating.

Great Improvement could be made
In the quality of cream If producers
were more skilled in the process of
cream separation. In nine cases out
OF ten Improvement could be made
with very little. If any. extra work or
expenditure. The simple faS that
| cooling aud airing cream Immediately
after separation and maintaining 4 at
low temperature will preserve it's
quality does not seem to be generally
understood among cream producers.
The lack OF cleanliness through all
the operations is another great draw
back to quality, and this is one of the
hardest things to correct, but by care
full grading and rewarding for good
quality much of the trouble could be
overcome.
The washing of dairy utensils is one
OF the features most neglected by the
| average cream producer. There is a
strong temptation on the part of the
user TO wash his machine but once a
| day, or even less often. Milk pals,
properly washed and aired. The COW
stables are often dirty and unsanitary.
| and through the entire operation of
production there is a lack of cleanli-
ness. There should be much more
care taken in keeping the utensils
clean and sweet. Washing powders
| could be used to good advantage and
| 4 hnir oh
| nine cases out of ten there is not
enough cleansing matter used. Some
agent should be employed in the
process of washing that will aid the
removing of grease, and at the same
time will sweeten and cleanse the
utensils. For this purpose nothing is
| better than sal soda or concentrated
| I've. and enough of either should be
| used to give the water a slippery feel
| ing. IL may be needless to say that
all utensils should have previous
washing in nearly cold water TO re-
move all traces of milk or cream,
| then bath in the alakline water for
| sweetening and purifying. and lastly
an immersion in boiling water After
| these processes, do not wipe dry, but
hang or set where the air can circu-
late freely; cover with loose meshed
| cloth to exclude flies and dust and we
have as nearly sanitary care of dairy
vessels and utensils as possible. In
this connection it may be well to sug.
gest the using of brushes instead of
cloths in washing where it is impossi,
BILE to reach all crevices with the lat,
ter.
Another item which would tend to
better sanitation. says Coleman's
Rural World, would be better rooms
or buildings for doing work The To-
cation of the hand separator in about
three cases out of four is in the
kitchen. While this may be necessary,
ii is not desirable. and certainly it
does not improve the quality OF the
cream. The separator should be To-
Gated in a place where odors and con-
| terminating Influences do not exist. A
little dairy house can be cheaply made
and fitted to accommodate all the
utensils and work necessary in the
production of cream. This may he
equipped according to the size of the
dairy, and would tend IN a marked de-
gree to remove some of the disagreed
BILE features of daiFying, at least to the
women who must be housekeepers as
well as helpers in their husbands
work, for the kitchen would then be
much more. easily kept clean
