PARTY RULES WANTED.

For the nomination of local oficers-supervisors etc.,
it will perhaps be advisable to call county convention in
the early part of September When the presidential ticket
is in the field and the campaign is fairly inaugurated it
is desirable have the local organization fully prepared
thereafter possible to take part in the responsibilities
and activities of the The important in this
direction is the reorganization of the county central commit
tee filling up the gaps which have been made in its ranks
during the past years by removals. and the adoption OF
rules for the of the committee i'll the
future The powers of the managing committee should
never be left caprice of the members of the
mittee themselves Fixed and definite rules Should be laid
down for the guidance of every governing body Political
organizations should be exception to the rule This IS
essential for the committeeman for the ranks and he OF
the party The necessity of action this direction has
been strngy demonstrated both in state and county poll
tics in the history of the past years 1t is the path of
prudence to remove far possible all grounds of
plant the republican lines by closing the door for the
of arbitrary authority by the adoption of few simple
rules Party strength especially local matters, depends
in great upon the confidence OF the members IN
those III charge of the party machinery 1t their powers
safeguarded by limitations laid down written and duly
adopted code of laws there will be little for dssension
on the excess of authority The Ledger has sympathy
with aconal squabbes within the ranks, which
dictated by selfish motvesto substitute set of

the wing of the republican party at the
present time which threatens seriously handicap the
party this campaign. Under the false cry of Herrinsm,
wrestling of the party from railroad Nomination. few
disappointed seek capture control of the organza
ton. We merit in such for place and
power particularly in the absence of any proof of attempted
dctaton this time. The committee has far exerted
powers udcousy in the interest of harmony aud party
success the time, believe in doing everything
within off these chickering's in the future One
vital step this end the adoption and PRONUNCIATION of

A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

Miss Splitter, whose untimely death
gave such a shock To her pupils and
fellow teachers, though less than three
months in our community had so lived
that she commanded the respect and
admiration of all. She was a girl who
had very largely by her own efforts
paid her way through high school and
college. Last year she worked for her
board in the family of Prof. D'Ooge at
Ipsilanti and endeared herself to every
member of the household When in
Ypsilanti last spring looking for teach
ers, talked with DIR. D'Ooge about the
girl and he had nothing but unqualified
words of praise for her both as to
scholarship and character At that
time | visited her class in training
school before | selected her for our
second grade here and was delighted
with her work. She put vim and en-
thusiasm into il that carried the little
ones along with her and yet with all
was so tactful and pleasing in her
methods that | was sure she was the
one | was looking for and during the
eleven weeks she was with us | never
for a moment doubted the wisdom of
my choice.
That she was thoroughly fitted for
her work both by nature and training
is evidenced by the splendid progress
her children were making aud the love
and devotion which, without single
exception, her little ones fully and
freely gave her. She was one of our
best teachers and certainly had before
her most a promising future.
Among the teachers, in the home of
Mrs. Mckenzie where she lived, in her
church work to which she was thor
oughly devoted, and where ever she
moved she was the personification of
joyOusness and good cheer, never APP
parently being troubled with the blues
herself nor permitting her associates to
be so afflicted for long. Two charac
teristics of all her words, her acts and
her work, were frankness and conscien-
tiousness.
In a word we wish il to be known as
our opinion that when Miss Splitter
was herself as we knew her, she was a
woman of splendid attachments and
character, most devoted Christian
girl and hard working competent
teacher thoroughly in love with her
work.
When, owing to some mental strain
that we know nothing of, her mind
gave way, she destroyed herself and
the mystery surrounding her case will
doubtless remain as it is, unfathom
able.
We feel that we as a school and COM
munity have suffered great loss and
deeply deplore the fact that nothing
was known of the poor girls great
mental distress while there was yet
time to minister unto her. Those near
of kin who suffer an infinitely greater
loss in this sudden and terrible bereave-
ment have our fullest sympathy in
Of respect trusting that il may help a
little in comforting the broken hearts.

RooseveIt's Retirement to Have Nc
Effect on Prosecutions.

Washington, June president
Roosevelt's elimination from the polit-
ical field by the nomination of Sec
rotary Taft will not cause a cessation
of the prosecution of the Transports
tiOn companies for violations Of the
railroad rate law" said Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Lane, "bnt
the law will be enforced strictly.
"Th1s commission is an Independent
body and has the power to call on the
United States district attorneys
throughout the country to secure in
dictments of railroads for granting re-
bates. Indictments are now being
brought and in the future others will
be framed when it is found that the
law is being violated.
"The law has been Of great benefit
to shippers, as it has stopped discrim-
nations in rates and discriminatory
practices to a large extent. Every
railroad man in the country knows
that it is unsafe and perilous to grant
rebates, directly or Indirectly; that
the law will be enforced and that a
pull will be valueless.
During the eighteen months that
the new law has been in effect more
relief has been given shippers than
during the eighteen years the old law
was on the statute books

New York, June 2l-Twenty-fou
companies manufacturing Manila wrap.
ping paper were fined $4,000 each by
Judge Hough in the United States cir
cult court. They pleaded guilty on
Friday last to maintaining an illegal
combination in restraint of trade.
They were members of the Manila and
Fibre association.
In imposing the fines Judge Hough
said that the combination Of paper
manufacturers was a clear violation
of the Sherman antitrust law, but be-
cause of extenuating circumstances he
would impose fine only. The COM
panies have arranged to pay their
fines through their counsel.
The case against the companies was
instituted through the instrume ntality
Of the American Newspaper Publish
ers' association, for which John Norris
of this city acted as agent. The COM
pantes composed almost the entire
membership of the combine of wrap
ping paper manufacturers, which was
organized by John H. Parks in 1906.
On complaint Of Mr.. Norris the fed
eral grand jury began an investiga-
ton of the combine two months ago
and on Friday last returned indict-
ments against Parks and twenty-five
companies. Mr.. Parks was in Europe,
but Solomon M. Stroock, counsel for
the combine, appeared In the federal
court and pleaded guilty for twenty.
three of the companies. District At
torney Stimson, who had charge Of the
cases, stated in court that in view Of
the fact that the companies had saved
the government expense by pleading
guilty he was willing that light fines
should be imposed. Counsel for the
companies declared that the combine
was formed two years ago to save
them from bankruptcy because Of the
methods of agents for consumers, who,
he alleged, favored first one group of
paper mills and then another in order
to cut prices. Counsel also declared
that the combine was dissolved when
| it learned that the association came
within the provisions of the Sherman
law.
