OSBORN AND A sPEcIFlC ~.

OSBORN AND A SPECIFIC TAX.
FROM the lower peninsula comes the
statement that the entry Of Chase s.
Osborn into the race for governor will
precipittte the specific tax question
Coming as IL does one can look upon
the statement only az threat to scare
out OF the race an upper peninsula can
didate or, failing in that draw the
business interests of this peninsula
away from Mr. Osborn and TO lower
peninsula man in return for a stay Of
proceedings.
We cannot sea why the entry of MIR.
Osborn into the race means specific
tax The mere fact that Mr.. Osborn
is resident OF county lying above
the straits county that has no prop.
erty that would be affected by a speci-
&c tax, should not bring on the fight
any more than il he were resident Of
Lansing or Grand Rapids True. Mr..
Osborn is very close to the upper pen
insula business interests and particul-
arly 30 because he resides above the
straits aud has mingled with us But.
the other candidates are sleo closely
acquainted with the upper peninsula.
Some Of them have many warm friends
MP hera Suppose that Mr.. Osborn had
not entered the race what would have
kept Judge Montgomery from raising
the issue and accusing Pat Kelly OF
being opposed to such tax or vice
versa or OF both of them raising the
Issue against Mr.. Musselman.
No. the specific tax dodge is simply
a club that IL being waved over our
heads TO try and make us let 20
We believe that.the proper time 70
discuss this question is now and the
proper man to lead in the discussion IL
Mr.. Osborn. We are lead TO this way
OF thinking because we believe that
the lower peninsula voters are willing
10 be informed upon this question and
can be shown the injustice OF the pro
posed measure and Mr. Osborn = can
didacy will insure their being showI
and shown correctly. The state o

Describing as "gruesome Picture
that drawn by Cardinal Gibbons in his

New York, July Am effort upon

ing the United states assay office has

thieves. The treasury department noti-
fed the police several months ago, that
many persons We're bringing articles
of gold tewelry to the assay office to
be appraised and sold. The govern
8ment purchases all gold offered at cur
rent rates. II was suspected that much
of this jewelry was lont, and detectives
were stationed at the assay office. This
fact soon became known. Instead of
offering the jewelry in its original
shape, the vendors brought in gold
bricks BY shadowing persons who Of.
fered gold to the assay office, detec-
&tives made several arrests, but were
unable to trace plumber because it had
been melted. This has caused the with
drawal OF detectives from the assay
