ANOTHER STATE ISSUE
The Democratic Candidate for Gov
efnor Has Failed To Mention His
SIN To License Bucket Shops.

The democratic candidate for gov
ernor is just now engaged in CRITICS
ing the republicans of Michigan for
what has been done in the state and
for some things not done. The fact
that Michigan in most respects is ad-
mitted by Mr.. Hemans to be decidedly
all right, speaks well for its republi-
can management and republican direc-
ton, and there is one further item for
which the republicans deserve credit
that Mr. Hemans has thus far failed to
mention, and that is the defeat of his
own bill intended to license and legal
ize bucket shops. The democratic can
didate for governor was a member of
the legislature of 1901. In March of
that year he introduced bill No. 1897,
the purpose of which was to make 1t
lawful for individuals, corporations and
associations to keep Offices or places
wherein could be conducted the buying
or selling of grain, provisions or other
products on margins or otherwise And
1t was especially provided in Mr.. He
mans bill that "any such sale or pur'
chase, even without any intention upon
the part of the seller of delivering and
paying therefor or without the intention
upon the part of.the seller of delivering
and receiving the entire compensation
therefor shall be and is hereby declared
to be Legitimate legal transaction" Mr..
Hemans' bill provided that the secretary
OF state should issue license for the
conducting of such business, and that the
operators should give bonds. What the
people of Michigan think of the bucket
shop business, which would have been
licensed and .legalized if the democratic
candidate for governor had secured the
massage of his bill, is shown by the fact
that at the last session of the legislature
bill was passed and it was signed by
Governor Warner entirely prohibiting
the existence of bucket shops in Michi-
gan. In referring to the things he is
anxious to do why has Mr.. Hemans not
stated his desire to legalize bucket shops
in this slater And in finding fault
with republican management in Michi-
gan, why has he forgotten to criticise
the action of Governor Warner and the
last republican legislature in effectually
Kidding the state of the bucket shop
afiictionS 1t would seem that Mr.. He
mans has some purposes in mind in
seeking to be governor which he has
not thought best to publicly refer to

Bryan and Beet Sugar.

Michigan is one of the foremost
states in the production of beet sugar.
The industry is great and growing
one, giving employment to thousands
of people and good returns to the
farmers engaged in it. If Mr.. Bryan
had his way that industry would be
wiped out. This is something that the
people of Michigan ought to know,
and recent speech by William H.
Taft will give them some timely in.
formation. In commenting on it the
Chicago Tribune says:
There is no question as to how Mr..
Bryan stands personally on the sugar
question. The Wilson bill as it passed
the house met with his approval. 1t
put raw sugar on the free list with no
bounty to American producers. If the
senate had not made raw sugar duti-
able there would have been a sudden
stop to the production of cane and
beet sugar in the United States.
1.-THE tariff plank of the Democratic
platform, which Mr.. Bryan approves
of, proposes to do the destructive
work in another way. 1t promises to
put on the free list all articles ''en-
tering into competition with trust con-
trolled products" Refined sugar is
one of the products which Mr.. Bryan
says is controlled by trust, and there
fore should be put on the free list. If
this were done both trust and indepen-
dent refineries would be closed. The
importation of raw sugar would cease
and that of refined sugar begin. The
producers of beet sugar on the CONT
nent of Europe would take possession
of this market. Competition with them
by the American beet sugar men would
be out of the question. They would
have to go out of business. Farmers
and factory hands would both suffer.
Here is food for thought for the
men who are in the beetSsugar indus
try in Colorado, Michigan, California,
Utah, Wisconsin and Nebraska. What
does Mr.. Bryan offer them if he shall
be elected? The destruction of their
profitable and expanding business

Thirty-five members of the Wo-

They were cordially welcomed and
passed most delightful day with
Mrs. Gillian. They found on the
porch and all over the house humor-
Gus signs which tended to put every
one at their ease. The signs made
such hit that they were confiscated
and worn home in triumph by vari-
Gus of the visitors.
A elaborate and delicious dinner
was served at noon, Mrs. Gillian be-
ing assisted by the Misses Abigail
and Emma Chandler, Of Corunna,
and Sarah MacAlvay, OF Lansing. In
the afternoon there were some instru-
mental selections by Mrs. w. II. Sim
mons, of Mason, and Mrs. Walter
Bush read a history of the club. This
was of great interest and paid due
tribute to what Mrs. Gillian had done
to make the organization a success.

of the guests, while others visited

WANT EXAMINATION
FOR ALL BARRIERS

Theh state board of examiners
Of BARRIERS, composed of Henry
Schaller, president; c. w. Whistler
secretary, both of Seattle, and
Thomas lvey, treasurer, of Spo-
kane, held the first BARRIERS exam
ination in Colville last week and
issued a license to each of the eight
candidates who took the eXamina-
ton, excepting two, who were ap-
prentices.
The necessity for this eXamina-
ton of the Colville barber fra
ternity came from the fact that
Colville has recently been raised
to a city of the third class, where.
in all BARRIERS must provide them
selves with a license.
The barber commissioners at a
meeting of the fraternity expressed
the opinion that there would be a
strong effort made to secure at
the hands of the next legislature
an extension of the license priv
lege to all BARRIERS of the state.
