FREDERICK q. BROWN.

The Expositor learns with pleasure
that attorney Frederick b. Brown of
Port Huron has been induced to enter
the field for the Office of Prosecuting
Attorney. Mr.. Brown was born in st.
Clair and has practised law in the city
of Port Huron for years, where he has
built up a large practice. He is an
able and experienced lawyer and man
of high character He already stands
high in the counsels Of the Republican
party in this County.
There is needed in the office of pros
ecuting attorney in this county a
strong lawyer, man Of fearless integ-
rity, who will prosecute with vigor all
offenders against the law, whether of
high or low degree, and we believe that
Mr.. Brown more nearly meets these re-
quirements than any other candidate
who has been mentioned for the Office
and we therefore cheerfully support
his candidacy

WI. Wilson, Port Hurons embeZzler
on the wholesale scale, was sentenced
to spend from % to years in Ionia,

commended. Wilson stole over 100000,
and certainly deserves more than >
years He took the earnings of many
poor people, never seeming to feel any
qualms over the crime he had com.
mitted. TO show the inconsistence of
our laws, regarding the term of SEN
fences for various crimes, two cases
might be cited. Frank Sharlow, of
Port Huron, for breaking into saloon
and stealing 50 receives a maximum
sentence of 10 years, while Wilson for
stealing 100000 gets a maximum SEN
tence of only ) years, 1t is better to

Speaking of religious doctrines old
Dr. Hodge, of Princeton University,
once said, "lf the schoolmen should
fortunately all die, and all doctrinal
disputes cease, the common people
would all agree We presume the
same would be true politically. If the
politicians on both sides were all killed
off, the masses would soon agree upon
what is best and wisest in government.
Their wants are alike, their dangers
the same and what helps or harms is
alike the friend or foe of all. If the
politicians were all treated after the
manner of surplus kittens, in place of
being allowed to devise schemes and
issues to set the people up to their ears
in dispute, how soon the dust would
settle. All, and how men would then
see they had been fighting their friends
and in their blind partisan spirit af-
frming and denying things which in
heart they both believed and both
wanted The glory and greatness of
our nation lies in the common people.
They are right at heart, and if they
were not blinded by the scheming few
the government would be simpler, pur-
er and far better than now.
