soLONS MAKE DISCOVERY.
Only Majority Vote Required FOL
Reconsideration.

J One peculiar incident OF Tuesday
Ieveping.s council meeting was tho
sudden discovery OF the city fathers
that they have, for years, been taking
lot OF unnecessary trouble in recon
sidering matters. IL has been the
custom to move thet Rule %, which
gives ~ hours after the council meet
ing for reconsideration, be suspended
and the motion to reconsider was then
acted upon and generally indefinitely
postponed.
Tuesday night. Al& Reinhardt want.
ed to put through a reconsideration OF
matter just passed and did not have
the votes to suspend the rules. He
moved to reconsider anyway and,
after Charles Gadd chief clerk in the
city clerks ONCE, had read the rule,
President link allowed the reconsid.
Grafton by a mere majority vote.
There was a long argument over the
matter after the meeting and the par
Iliamentary point was put up TO As
sistant Corporation Counsel Atkinson,
who decided that Gado and link were
right and that II was not necessary TO
suspend the rules except for the pur-
pose OF cutting of the ~ hours lee
way in filing reconsideration notices
after the meeting.

.URGESFREERT TRADE
: WITH DOMINION
Ex-Congressman Lentz Says High
Tariff Wall Against Canada Is
Grave Mistake.

A forcefnl address on Canadian Re-
ciprocity." by ex-Congressman John j.
Lents. of Columbus, o., featured the
MONDAY lunch OF the Wholesalers az
ISOLATION in the Pontcartrain. We'd
nesday. James Schermerhorn. general
manager OF The Times. presided In the
absence Of President James 4. Davis.
Though booked to address the mem
bers on 1.-The relation OF the press to
the commercial interests" he. gave
way to Mr.. Lentx after brief introduce
tory remarks.
Congressman Lentz's address was
for the most part vigorous attack
en- the tariff and plea for trade reia-
tons with Canada In the interest Oh
the whole United States.
Il have always commended ne
said, that Canada should be a part
of the United States. and ] believe II
will be In time. The citizens OF the
United States and the citizens of Can
ada should regard one another as
brothers.
Our tariff Is not a tariff for pro
lection. We built our walls originally
to keep out Europe, but we built them
too thick and too tall. and Canada ID
beginning to take notice. Our Ameri'
can enterprise Is 20 aggressive thst
we need the Canadian markets for
our development o: that enterprise
and we ought to encourage trade with
that country. We must be awake 10
changing conditions.
rrYet. what have We done. AS a mat
ter OF fact, we have insulted Canada.
and IL were a Canadian | would
stand for just as high wall as the
United States has built up.
Now IL our time to take advan-
tage OF the great market that lies
Gcross our border. 1t Is high time
that the imaginary border line vert
blotted out. And nothing Is so prom
Using In this connection as an organ
zation such as yours. The men who
load the freight cars with their pro-
ducts are the men who must project
the doctrine of equality among ma
lions. And you must convince those
outside your corporate limits. the
farmers and the citizens of the United
States generally. that you are pro-
noting their best interests as well as
your own when you propose freer
trade relations with sister nations.
The speaker characterized as the
widest extravaganza the enormous ex-
penditures of the last congress and
the one which preceded 1t, which was
known as '.the billion dollar congress"
The last congress, In its first year,
expended $1,O0S 900 ,O00," he said. In
its second year. ending March 4. II
expended $1.04S. 100000 Just think
OF II. What is there to show tor this
vast appropriation. The people have
no more than they had In previous ad-
ministratiors. Such extravaganza is
uncalled for and initiates against the
whole system of government.

.HARsHA'S NIECE
TOLD. TO LEAVE
Examiner DeWoody Objects To
Woman's Presence in Suspended
Clerks Office.

That the Harsha regime In the Unit
ed States circuit court clerks Office
has passed was strongly evidenced
when Mrs. Jennie Wright Jones. Har
sha's niece. was invited to leave the
office.
During Harsha's tenure, she was his
chief assistant here. although appoint
ed deputy clerk In Bay City. but had
not been In the office since ne was
suspended last Friday. Tuesday after
noon. however. she came down and
busted herself with some work.
Examiner DeWoody, who Is going
over Harshas books. saw Mrs. Jones
and decided that IL would be Just as
well to have her away. He went to
Elmer w. Voorhees,, the deputy clerk
and custodian of the ONCE, and sug
gested that, as Mrs. Jones Is supposed
to be the deputy for Bay City, II was
not appropriate that she be allowed
free access to the Detroit Office at this
time.
Voorhees, acceded to Dewoody's re.
quest and informed Mrs. Jones that
the government examiner would pre-.
fer her to he absent during his exam.
ination. Mrs. Jones took the hint and
left Immediately.
II did not care to have Mrs. Jones
here just at this time, particularly as
the law specifies that the deputy shall
be maintained at Bay City and she is
the deputy named to act there said
DeWoody In explanation.
The affair created something OF a
furry In the federal building as Mrs.
Jones has been more or less of fix
ture there and the rumor soon got
around that she had been elected
while working on records several
months old. Voorhees, denies this,

WHY BASEBALL
IS THE KING PIN

When one sits down and ponders but a
second or two he can see dozen or
more reasons at once why baseball is the
king pin Of all sports in this country. The
unexpected IS forever bobbing up, and
IL Is these turns OF the almost unbeiiev-
able that make the baseball bugs. For ex-
ample, the other day tho lowly St. Louis
and Washington squads went in and
turned the trick in fine fashion against
the proud and naughty Athletics and De-
troits. The chap who would have ven-
tured this result would have been declared
a first-class candidate for admission to a
State Institution for the insane. but that
did not prevent the result from coming
about. You never can tell in baseball and
when our youngsters are granddaddies
the game viii still be the top-notcher, un-
less we arc mighty much mistaken.
