Fordney Not a Free Trader.

The Grand Rapids Press, which has
been severe critic of Representative
Fordney on account of his "stand.pat'
attitude on tariff revision, admits that
it always has hopes of him" since he
has come out in favor of free hides. If
Joe would only consent to let the up
ward revision tail of the tariff SEIZED
ule go with the downward revised
hide clause the hopes of the Press
would, no doubt, be without qualifica-
tion or reservation. But the price a
Michigan congressman must pay for
the good words Of the Grand Rapids
Press is altogether too high, and free
hides" is about all the concession the
Saginaw statesman will be likely to
give his consent to.-Marquette Min

Local Option in Oakland.

Never in all my years as limb OF
the law" observed one of the Pontiac
officials did we have so much peace
as this summer Why we are just
reveEng in peace. | can remember
how, before the county went dry,
there was never a day but someone
was tossed into the county jail. Many
time 30 or 40 have been there at
one time. About every week We had
from one to three dozen garnishee
writs to serve. Now, we don't get an
average of one a week.
THE cause? Why it's that Pontiac
~ saloons were put out of business a
little over year ago. There is prob
ably as much beer consumed in Pom
tiac as ever, but it is in the homes and
not in the saloons. When a man gets
enough at home The quits but in the
saloon he must keep drinking until the
crowd have all treated. BY the time
a crowd of half dozen have each
set EN- up" they are full Then
somebody wants to fight, gets into
trouble, ds arrested, fined or Jailed, and
the next time he goes back he has
got to do the same thing or be called
O. tight-wad.
1T is just as easy to explain the
small number of civil suits in Oakland
county courts, such as unpaid rent
and board bills, garnishees and the
like. Men used to want to pay their
debts but could not. They had to
treat, and consequently their rent,
board or grocery bill went unpaid
Now they have their money. Factor
les are paying good wages, and men
are glad to pay their bills"

The tide of immigration in the six
months ending June 30th, shows an
enormous increase compared with the
same period last year, the total for this
year being 524,124 against 192,657 last
A-indeed, the total for all OF 1908 was
H0,319. OF the arrivals this year, al
most a fourth, class themselves as
farm labOrers, about the same num-
Der simply laborers, $4,000 servants,
5000 carpenters, the same number
clerks, 1000 tailors, while 10000 wo-
men and children were registered
without occupation. 1t is believed the
million mark will be passed before the
end of the year. If there is the gen
eral improvement in business condi-
lions which are expected now that the
tariff question is settled these foreign
ers will soon be absorbed in various
ways and there will be as many more
coming another year, this too, in face
of far more strict regulations and re-
auirements on the part of the govern
ment. The opinion prevails that a
higher grade of immigrants has re-
suited from the better restrictions
and If this is true congress will prob
ably make the requirements little
more severe.

The above statement was given on
November 3, 1906 and when Mr.. Evans
was interviewed on March Is, 1909, he

Zone man in thirty-two and one wo

Edward M. Foote of New York, who
also adds. Il have no hesitancy in pro
nouncing cancer the worst physical
scourge with which we have to contend
today. Cancer is far more dreaded
than tuberculosis, for, although the
death rate from cancer is not yet so
great as that from tuberculosis, it is
steadily on the increase, while the white

Michigan to repair political fences on
