ST. CLAIR COUNTY
NOT IN MOOD To
. Be BOSS-R|DDEN
GOV. WARMER HAS CONFINED
CAMPAIGN MAINLY TO RURAL
COMMUNITIES - SENT MeNT
FOR HIM NOT STRONG.
From a Special correspondent.l

4
PORT HURON, Mich. July %
Gov Warner has left this section pref
ty much alone In his campaign for re
nomination. In fact, when he invaded
st. Clair county. he kept largely e
the rural communities. Hereaoouts
| largely 10 that element OF county Re
publicanism known as the boxers.
These are led by Postmaster Sherman
and Judge Frank T. Wolcott.
The fact is that the Warner senti
ment IN this county is not very
strong. Even setting aside the an
, tipathy felt toward Gov Warner by
Link Avery and former Bank
ing Commissioner George W
Moore. IL seems 10 be the gen
eral belief that the governor failed to
make good in his charges against Ar
thur Hill. That is TO say. the opiNion
is pretty strong that. II the governor
had anything upon which 10 base
charges such as he made. he should
have come out with the proof and not
left Mr.. Hill dangling in the air po-
litically.
Third Term Unpopular.
And. again, the third-term idea Is
not popular in this part OF the state.
IL II Is Endorsed In the person OF Gov.
voters believe the opponents OF the
governor have failed 10 make good In
presenting another good. reliable can
didate. II will not be because OF any
love for Warner
Furthermore. there is heard upon
every hand the talk that with War
ner renominated, the chances OF DEM
ocracy in Michigan will have been
strengthened many fold. There Is
little doubt that II the governor gets
denomination. there will be scores OF
old-time Republicans In St. Clair
county that will vote for the Demo
cratic candidate. should II be either
Ferris. or Hemans.
Primary Election System.
Another feature OF the political sit
uation In this county is the difference
made in county politics by the intro
duction OF the primary election sys-
tenn. II has resulted in throwing near
ly every one OF the present county of
fee holders into the fray. and each is
asking for third term-and in one
case, at least, for fourth term. This
the rank and file OF the voters do not
like. and there is likely to be house
cleaning of county Office holders. Sept
I. ffe- general trend Of opinion is
that county officeholder has held Of
fee about long enough when he has
had two terms. and the other fellows
ought to be given a chance at the
| crib.
! Perhaps there Is no more noticeable
change in public sentiment than In the
feeling toward Bryan, and IL is sig
nificant OF a full party vote for the
first time In IL years. The old talk
that Bryan is too much OF a radical has
been forgotten, and compared with
President Roosevelt, general opinion
puts Bryan down now as a At man to
carry forward the work OF the chief
of Republican radicals.
In general. therefore. it may be said
that st. Clair county Is not this year
In the usual boss-ridden mood.

 ly appointed, are beginning to look
 about for exhibits in their various de.
 partments. The Press comittee is at present busy arranging the premium
 list, soliciting advertisements and add ing to the various classes. It is the intention to have the lists ready for mailing by August 10, as heretofore about two thousand copies are to be sent out in and about the surrounding towns. The superintendents' of the horse, poultry, dog, cattle and vege- table departments hope to interest the public into entering the best they pos- sess Tn competition. It is now the in- tention to make the 17th Field day athletic exercises consisting of run ming, jumping, shot putting, hammer throwing, bicycle races and other events to be arranged for later. It is hoped to make this day an interesting one to the public which is invited to participate, prizes will be awarded to those who excell in the various events. s. c. Bradley, being in charge of both field and horse show days, is a guar antee of an interesting program. Draught cattle under George Sherwood should be, as it has been in the past, an interesting department to all lovers of animals. Eli Wakeman in charge Of blooded stock is making an effort to make this years exhibit of sheep. swine and dairy cattle surpass all pre- vious exhibits. Dogs with pedigrees will be found here under c. H. Brad ley. MT Bradley having a wide ac- quaintance among dog fanciers should be able to get together collection of canines well worth while to go and see. w. O. Burr, superintendent of poultry department, is already laying plans for the best poultry show the club has ever had, the number of poultry fan ciers in Fairfield and vicinity should make his efforts successful. c. L. Wells of Stratford, the well known poultry breeder and judge, acting as judge for the club, will insure the best getting the blue ribbon. Fred Jen- nings, in spite of the severe drouth, hopes to get the usual fine exhibit of vegetables in his department. Fruit will be looked after by E. T. Buklley but the present outlook is gloomy for fruit from this vicinity. The fine grand stand will afford splendid view of the horse show and field day sports. The Wheeler and Wilson band will give concerts on the grounds during the afternoon of each day. The public is invited to enter in competition in all departments and to help us make this fair what it was intended to be,a clean and enjoyable three days intercourse of friends and neighbors free from any thing but that which one can remember with pleasure.

FLIES.

The domestic fly is passing from a disgusting nuisance and troublesome pest to a reputation of being danger ous enemy to human health. A species of mosquito has been demonstrated to be the cause of the spread of malaria.
 Another kind of mosquito is the cause of yellow fever, and now the house fly is considered an agency in the distri-
 button of typhoid fever, summer com plaint, cholera infantum, etc. The number of bacteria on single fly may range all the way from $50 to 6, 600. 900.
 Early in the fly season the number of
 bacteria on flies are comparatively
 small, while later the numbers are
 comparatively very large. The place where flies live also determines largely the numbers that they carry. The
 average for the 4l4 flies was about one and one-fourth millions bacteria each. It hardly seems possible for so small
 bit of life to carry so large number of organisms. The method of the ex- pertinent was to catch the flies from the several sources by means of ster- ile fly net, introduce them into sterile bottle and pour into the bottle known quantity of sterilized water, then shake the bottle to wash the bacteria from their bodies, to simulate the number
 of organisms that would come from a fly in falling into a lot of milk, The objectionable class, coli-aerogenes type, was two and one-half times as abundant as the favorable acid type. If these flies stayed in the pig-pen vi- cinity there would be less objection to the flies and organisms they carry, but the fly is a migratory insect and it visits everything Under the sun." It
 is almost impossible to keep it out of our kitchens, dining rooms, COW stables and milk rooms. The only remedy for this rather serious condition of things
 s. remove the pig-pen far as possible from the dairy and dwelling house. Ex- .reme care should be taken in keeping lies out of the COW stable, milk rooms, md dwelling. Flies walking over our food are the cause of one of the worst ,ontaminations that could occur from he standpoint of cleanliness and the ianger of distributing disease germs. -
