BRADLEY wINNIG VOTES

the nomination as Republican candi-
date for governor, was here yesterday
and made most favorable impression
with all classes OF citizens. He visited
various manufacturing plants, met and
conyersed with the workmen and was
called upon at the hotel by a allegation
OF the most prominent business men In
Bay City, to assure him OF their sup
port. An organization was perfected
whcih will be in charge OF Frank Buell.,
one of the largest lumbsrmen in the
state
One thing which pleased DR.. Bradley
beyond expression was the calling OF
delegation OF old soldiers, who asked
him how be stood in regard to the old
veterans. Or. Bradley replied;
II do not believe II Is possible for
the people In the State of Michigan 10
do enough for the remaining Is, 900
men, when at the time Of our country
need, responded TO the call, and who
sacrificed their young manhood, future
and fortune TO preserve the integrity
Of the Union.
''In regard to how feel AS to the
management of the Soldiers Home In
Grand Rapids, wish to state most
emphatically that believe in remov-
ing it's management as far as possible
from active politics; and no matter
-. A.. Standardization tha xvorthy
officials should be allowed 10 remain in
their respective Offices
Several letters were read DIR. Bradley
by some Of the veterans who called
upon him at the Imperial Hotel Fol-
lowing is an extract written by an
inmate of the Soldiers Home at Grand
Rapids, but for obvious reasons his
name cannot be mentioned.
I'VE will give DR. Bradley all the
help that lays in our power. He is our
man. OF course their are some that
are afraid OF their jobs, but thank God
there are great many that will help
and support him. When was In
Detroit 90 the encampment and during
the Parade there was oil Old Vet that
was near me that made the remark
when Gov Warner passed by on his
black horse that was his last time TO
be In a parade OF that kind and you
ought TO bear the cheering that old
Vet received No when our Gov.
has no respect for the old Vets II is
time we had man that would take a
little more interest than he does
was at his own town and II he should
be nominated he won't be able 20 carry
his own town for they don't speak very
highly OF him there, wherever l was. =

President of the Farmers Mutual In
surance Co., said
"The candidacy of DR. Bradley has
my full Endorsement and he will receive,
think. respectable majority OF the
Republican vote at the primaries in
our country. We do not see the neces-
sity Of continuing for a third term, a
man who has split the party into fac
tions and who could noe spread the
cankers / favor DIR. Bradley, believ-
ing IL elected, he will be In no Wise
handicapped nor compromised but with
free hand and capable brain will
restore harmony in the patty and make
for peace. purity and good government.
