The Commercial Clubs exhibit
was sent TO the county fair on
Tuesday. 1t was ready Monday
morning, but General Superinten-

didn't see fit to take it till he got
good and ready and it did not
reach its destination until Tuesday
afternoon. T.. II. Dewey
generously carried the exhibit free
of charge as did also the Interur-
ban, and the Commercial Club APP
preciates their kindness. The gen
erous act was nearly spoiled by the
boorishness of Barnes. The dis
play was not as good as last year,
owing to the lack of interest shown
by the farmers. John Dewey and

Daughters Of Eve.

The international fairs of the last
department 1t has covered Gell
reaching from patchwork 10 sculpture.
Many writer's have described the wo-
mans exhibit, and have drawn wise
differences as TO the tastes of the fu-
ture woman. The Franco-Brit.sh eX-
hibition, which has been so successful
in London this summer, has not only
had a womans section, but has had
numerous entries by women IN otAtr
departments. A few pictures and
statues, some creditable achievem ats
in domestic arts, and a large share in
the educational exhibits are easily
noted by the seeker for signs OF tho
progress of women. But The most sis,
nificant fact of the exhibition TO the
student of women's work is not the
share of wome.l in it as exhibitors, but
their enthusiasm as visitors, and the
things which arouse that enthusiasm.
The anxious critics of modern fem
mine activity, who fear that woman
is becoming unsexed by her opportuni-
ties, as well as the confident prophets
of her future advancement may well
ask themselves. What do modern wo-
men care most to see?" Here are edu.
cational sections where by charts and
records and specimens the work OF
women teachers is illustrated; yonder
are large spaces given to industrial
progress and to the exhibits of art
which might well attract the thou
sands OF young women studying art
IN England and France. All these sec
lions show mere sprinkling of wo
men who are interested in the story
Of the march of civilization. There is
one place, however, states the Youths
Companion, where one must go early
to find standing room; it is the dis
olay of dresses! From the throng OF
patient, waiting women about the
gowns and blouses all day long, the
philosopher may learn something OF
the sex, although ii may not be easily
recorded in statistics. 1t will be a
world-old truth-sometimes obscured,
but never lost-that the Daughters OF
Eve is the most powerful feminine or
ganization in human society, and that
when dress is the question there is no
disagreement among them as to its I'M
portance, whatever they may think Of
any phase of its fashion.

News Notes from Lansing
Interesting Happenings at the State
Capital of Michigan.

Lansing.-The supreme court hand
ed down a decision in favor OF Gov.
Fred NJ Warner in the Bradley-War-
ner recount case: The court held
with Gov. Warner that the board OF
canvassers has no power to go be-
hind the returns from the recent pri-
mary election in Michigan and ex-
anime into the enrolment OF voters
as demanded by Dr. j. B. Bradley,
state auditor general. who was de-
feated for the nomination for gov
ernor by Gov. Warner by about 1,5OO
votes on the face of the returns. Six
of the justices concurred in the opin-
ion, Justice McAlvay only dissenting.
Unless the canvass of the vote should
discover errors enough to overcome
Gov. Warmers lead. this insures him
the nomination. Three different views
OF the statute were presented to the
court. DR.. Bradleys attorneys con-
tended that the canyassers have the
right to investigate the enrolment to
determine whether all who voted at
the primary were legally qualified, and
to take evidence bearing upon the
legality Of enrolment and election.
Gov. Warmers contention in brief was
that the canvassers have only power
to recount the votes and declare the
result after finding that the ballot
boxes have not been tempered with.
The position taken by the board of
state canvassers upon the advice OF
the attorney general was that the can
vassers should recount the ballots. but
in doing so they shall not be per-
mitted to have before them other evil
dence than was patent to the primary
election inspectors. but may examine
the enrolment book and poll list to
determine the number of ballots
which the boxes should contain.
