IT would seem as though DR..
James b. Bradley was making a
mistake in asking for a recount
Of the votes cast at the last pri-
mary election OF course, if
there was fraud in any of the
counties on primary election day,
it should be exposed and the
guilty parties punished. 1t is
hardly fair to presume that the
fraud Gf there was any was all
in the interest Of Governor War
ner, and it is not probable that a
recount would materially change
the official figures. A recount
at this time would not only be
tedious and expensive to the
state, but would be a serious
handicap to the republican cam
paign in Michigan this fall. Dr..
Bradley should, in the interest
of the republican party, take his
defeat gracefully and accept the
figures of the official canvass as
final.

The village council are to be
commended on their prompt
measures in passing resolutions
prohibiting shooting and fishing
on Maple lake. There is no rea-
son why there should not be
good fishing in the lake in two
or three years with the proper
protection. Promiscuous shoot
ing on the lake is extremely dan
gerous. and. besides, the decay.
ing bodies of turtles, birds, etc.,
in the water is a menace to
health. The resolution as pass
ed by the council will be found
in full in this issue. 1t should
be rlgidly enforced by the Off.
GERS of the village.

THE independence party, of
which William Randolph Hearst
is chairman, has issued call
for state convention to be held
in Grand Rapids, Wednesday,
September 80. Presidential
electors and complete state
ticket will be nominated. Bryan
and Hearst don't seem to agree
politically, and it is a case of
"a house divided against ITSELF"
This is only another instance of
the serious plumbers of the dem.
ocratic party. The ultimate re.
suit is obvious.

The Courier last week stated
under the heading "Poor Sled
din for Warner that there were
thousandsof republicansthrough
out the state who would not vote
for Warner this fall and were
openly opposing him. 1t also
quoted the yarn that has been
going the rounds Of the state
press that Arthur Hill of Sag
NAV would bolt the republican
ticket this fall and support the
democratic nominee for COVER
nor. Mr.. Hill is man of too
much Judgment and political sa-
gacity to do anything of that
kind. 1t is true that he opposed
Mr.. Warmers nomination and
had good reasons for so doing.
He has denied most emphatically,
however, that ne intended to
"bolt' the ticket. There is no
more reason why DR.. Bradley's
friends should support the dem.
ocratic ticket than there would
have been for Governor Warmers
supporters to "bolt" the ticket
had DR.. Bradley been nominated.
While many people opposed
Governor Warmers nomination
on account of the third term pre-
cedent, and for other reasons.
yet he was nominated under the
laws of the state by the citizens
thereof, and should receive the
solid support of the republican
party at the polls. A democratic
governor would be of no benefit
with republican legislature and
other state officers. 1t would
practically be the same as no
governor at all. The republicans
of Michigan are not foolish
enough to trifie with the cover.

there is danger of national demo
cratic victory this fall will do we'll
to reflect on the statement made
forty or more years ago by y. 5.
Grant that "the democratic party
could always be depended on to
blunder. Although starting in
on the campaign with a seeming
confidence of winning, it has
made quite number of blunders
thus far-blunders which will
prove disastrous when the votes
are counted The most serious
was the nomination of w. j.
Bryan and the ready acceptance
of his many well-known vaga.
ries, after he had twice been re-
pudiated by the people. No,
there is no danger of democratic
supremacy this year.

Secretary
LET the People Rule. 4"

1t appears that the slogan used
with SO much oratorical flourish
by the Hon. VIM. Jennings Bryan
is but a borrowed phrase after
all, and originated with Gov.
Haskell of Oklahoma, who used
it in the attempt to crystalline
into something apparently useful
the radical principles now in
process of experimentation in
the infant member of our nation.
1t also appears as far as these
two distinguished disciples of
democracy are concerned, it is a
mere play upon words, a phrase
that "rings out, but don't mean
anything" 1t sounds good; 1t
appeals to the thinking ele-
ment, and as a vote getter has
every appearance of proving eff
fective. Haskell used it to such
good effect that he was elected
as first governor of the new
state, and after taking hold of
the reins Of government proceed
ed to show the dear people" that
the slogan so effectively used
had been changed materially and
the word "Haskell" had been
substituted for the words 1.-THE
people" Yes, Haskell rules" in
Oklahoma, there is no doubt
about that. The state political
machine built up under the lead
ership of~this astute governor is
without parallel, and surpasses
any combination ever effected
for throttling the will of the
people.

Working Nurses Needed.

A New York woman says that there
is great demand for nurses in the
families of ordinary people who might
be able to pay from $40 to SIS a week,
but would expect the nurse to not
only help with the sick ones, but as
sist with the work that is so much
greater when there is sickness in the
family. The trained nurse as a gen.
eral thing would scorn to do anything
else but her work proper, and she has
her rights, but it will certainly be a
good thing for the country when some
one establishes a kind of working
nurse who is not above helping those
who cannot afford to hire the trained
nurse and servant as we'll and are.
under ordinary circumstances. their
own servants.

William Mckinley as a publisher, and
James Madison as the secretary of an

THE safety fund for bank de-
posi- IS as now in operation in Ok
lahoma and which Mr.. Bryan ad-
vocates so strenuously as a rem
edy for all existing financial evils
is, after all. an old story, and
one which will not make pleas
ant reading for those democratic
managers who are seeking to
make political capital out of this
particular Bryan hobby. The
same scheme was given a trial in
New York state about seventy
five years ago and its history is
one Of disastrous failure. with a
grand smash up in the end Their,
as now, the plan augured well at
the start. The people were pro-
tected and prosperity seemed
certain. There was the same
sudden increase in deposits in
the banks which came under the
safety deposit plan that there
is in Oklahoma today, but a few
years of experiment proved the
utter fallacy of the system, which
was discontinued after a series
of disastrous failures resulting
from the evil effects of the inter
ference of government with pri-
vate business.

As an example of the complete
hoodwinking OF an unsuspecting
public, we might mention the
adoption of the initiative and
referendum. Haskell was the
foremost champion of this prin-
ciple and was loud in his declara.
ton that under it the people of
Oklahoma would rule absolutely
But it was an easy matter Tor
this sagacious politician, who
was to see TO it that the people
shouldn't rule, to have the
constitutional convention give
the legislature the power to at
tach the emergency clause to all
bills necessary for the preser-
walton of the public safety, peace
and happiness" and make the
legislature the sole judge OF
whether the immediate peace of
the community depended upon
letting the people rule or upon
letting the legislature attach the
emergency clause, making it i'm
possible for the people to rule.
Here is the result Out of 203
laws enacted by the first legisla
ture of Oklahoma $50 of them
carried. the emergency clause,
and practically every bill Great
ing burdensome taxes and devils
ing means of spending the peo-
pies money, carried the emer-
gency, and the people had no
more right to vote upon them by
the initiative and referendum
than if that provision had never
been in the constitution.
Many instances might be men
toned where this protege of
Bryan has thwarted the will of
the people Of Oklahoma instead
Of letting them rule, among
others being his declaration that
the attorney general of the state,
an elective office, has no right to
institute suit without the gov
ernOr'S consent, thus making this
important office a mere dummy
to the governor.
Yes, it's a good slogan. AS we
remarked before, it rings out.
Thousands of voters may be
fooled by it. But if the people
Of the country imagine for a min
ute that the Sage Of Fairview"
has any notion Of permitting
them to rule they had better dis
abuse their minds of that idea at
once. They will rule as the del
egateS to the Denver convention
ruled-rule when Bryan is to be
benefited thereby and when Bry-
ans ideas and policies are to be
promulgated thereby, otherwise
Bryan will rule-not the people.
