Work Of the Convention.


The constitutional convention has
resumed work after the holiday recess
and, as the salary budget expires by
limitation on January 81, much will
have to be accomplished in order to
complete the revision by that time.
There will be very little smooth sail
ing and practically every proposal
that comes up will be a subject for de-
bate. The constitutional initiative
proposition has attracted more atten-
ton than anything else Every dele
gate has been anxious to learn
whether sentiment has changed and a
general comparing of notes is going
on. AS matter of fact, good many
delegates have changed their ideas
regarding the proposition and the
prospects are that it may not pass.
Some delegates came back with the
conviction that If the proposal should
get through 1t would arouse such a
determined opposition that the revi-
sion would be defeated. The conven-
ton will take up the proposal relative
to placing members of the legislature
on a salaried basis, which may meet
with favorable consideration, although
destined to be opposed by delegates
having farmer constituents. 1t is be-
lieved that if fair salary is provided
a much higher class of men will con-
sent to become members.

The Thaw Trial.

The attorneys for Thaw have made
final arrangements for his coming
trial which will be held in the same
branch OF the supreme court as be-
fore. Justice Victor Bowling, who will
preside at the trial, is one OF the
youngest members of the state SUI
preme bench but has already attained
a wide reputation as a jurist He has
expressed an intention to hold the OPP
posing attorneys steadily to their
tasks and to expedite the trial as
much as possible.
1t Is intimated that IL IL appears
from the first days proceedings that
the work of jury-selection will be diff
ficult night sessions will be held. The
defendant and his attorneys, as well
as the district attorney, are in accord
with Justice Bowling and will do
everything in their power to hasten
the proceedings. 1t is the hope of all
to make the second trial a model of
brevity as compared to the first trial.

GENERAL NEWS
OF INTEREST
THE PRESIDENT MAKES REPLY
TO ADMIRAL BROWN SONS
RESIGNATION
RAILROADS LIKE LAW
Report Of the Railroad Commission is
Very Interesting and Gives Some
Surprising Statistics.

The line and staff row in the navy,
stirred up by the sudden resignation
OF Admiral Brownson when he dis
agreed with the president as to the
placing of navy surgeon in COM
mand of the hospital ship Relief, has
been freshly stirred up by the presi-
dent. That he does not relish some
OF the comment is evident by two let
ters to Secretary Metcalf, which the
latter has made public. In the course
OF the letters the president says:
There can be entirely legitimate
differences of opinion, although, in my
Judgment, the considerations in favor
OF the course decided upon are over
whelming But, there is no room for
differences of opinion as to the gross
improperly Of the admiral's conduct
in resigning sooner than carry out the
orders OF his superior officers in such
a matter. The question whether one
otf1cer or another shall command a
ship is OF little consequence compared
with the weakening of all command
and discipline, which would result. if
officers were to refuse TO serve when
ever their tempers are ruffled by adj
verse decisions on the part of their
superiors.
THE hospital ships of the navy will
hereafter, unless otherwise directed
by congress, be placed under the con-
troll and command of medical officers
OF the navy, their navigation being ex-
clusively controlled by a competent
sailing master and civilian crew, the
sailing master having the complete re-
sponsibility for everything connected
with the navigation of the ship. Such
a ship is merely floating hospital
The arrangement has worked well,
and it is preposterous to suppose that
1t will not work as well under a med
ical officer of the navy as under a
medical officer of the army.
Certain hospital ships in the Brit
ish, German, Japanese and Italian
navies have already been commanded
by medical officers-sometimes fleet
surgeons, sometimes Red Cross sur
geons.

Would Let State Pay for Hall.

In connection with the committee
appointed by the Detroit common
council to promote the plan to build a
music hall and auditorium, Capt.
George c. Waldo has explained how
the city can obtain a $780, 900 state APP
preparation. He calls attention to the
fact that at the special session of the
legislature a bill was passed appro.
priating $4,000 a year for the cree
ton of armories for divisions of the
state National guard. Each division
is entitled to $4,000 and Detroit has
Is divisions. 1t is said that Grand
Rapids companies are planning to
land the first appropriation. 1t would
require few years to secure the en-.
tire 100000 because not more than
$4,000 year is appropriated for all
the divisions in Michigan. 1t is pro-
posed to use the armory as a conven
ton hall, for which there is great
need in a city that draws so large a
number of conventions as does Detroit

She has had his ears clipped closely to

And when she drives he nestles at her

The Yellow Peril.

The unexplained arrival of 300 Jap
anese in Vancouver and the prospect
of an influx of 1000 from Honolulu
add to the alarm there since Japs
knitted three city firemen. The 300
Japanese came from coast logging
camps, some even from the American
side of the boundary. officers of the
Asiatic Exclusion league are much
perturbed by their coming.
Steamers are being engaged to bring
the 1900 Japs from Hawaii. Tech
nically the paternal Japanese govern
ment cannot prevent the coming of
these Japanese to British Columbia,
for they are free agents once they
have turned in their passports at the
islands. With the Hawaiian and log
ging camp influx the Jap colony will
be increased to $500.

Escape Penalties.

By its action in amending the cor
'poration laws of the state, the legis-
lature at the regular session defeated
the action commenced by Atty.-Gen.
Bird against the Crucible Steel Co. of
America to recover $4,000 in penal
ties for the company's failure to file
articles of incorporation in Michigan
while doing business in the state.
A decision sustaining the company's
demurrers was filed by the supreme
court.
The defendant company is allied
with the United States Steel Cor
poration, and has large warehouses in
Detroit.
In amending the law, providing for
the payment of a penalty of 81 900 per
month for any company doing business
in the state without having filed its
articles of Incorporation. the legisla-
ture, after the commencement of the
suit, so altered the sections that the
penalty clause cannot be made to APP
ply to the failure of the company to
file It's articles OF Incorporation. AS
a consequence, the suit fails and 1t
cannot be recommended.
Several other cases against corpora
tons previously commenced by the
attorney-general must be discontinued
in consequence of the action of the
legislature in making a tumble of the
law.

would be wise. There is no use talk
ing. new era in politics is here, and
the doctrine of the square deal is in
the ascendency. Secretary Taft is a
great man. His success in the Philip
pines, in Cuba and at Panama in
Strengthening out enormous difficulties
stamps him as man of great capacity
and ability. His opponents have said
that he is an understudy of the presi-
dent, but l want to say that while his
policies are largely those which the
president has favored, Mr.. Taft is not
a mere imitator."
