SOME SHAMEFUL. PAGES.
Were Contributed to Michigan His
tory by Last Democratic
LEGISLATURE.

In the Democratic Legislature Of 9l
and '92 A. b Brown of Montcalnl
county was a member of the senate
Senator Brown was not elected as q
Republican and had expected to az
filiate with the Democratic members
of the senate. But this is what Sen
ator Brown said in explanation Of
why that expectation was not realized
"nhey could not buy me nor drive
me-" The Democratic leaders did not
like that kind of man.
There is mighty little danger that
that crowd will go back there What
ever may have been my opinion of the
party before. their doings in the las,
legislature was sufficient to disgust
every man who is not determined t.
follow his party to any extreme.
''You can fool all the people part OF
the time; you can fool part of tn,
people all OF the time, but you car
never fool enough people in this state
again to put the Democratic party
into power"
This letter appeared In the Green

Chase S. Osborn served the people
OF Michigan through two terms as
state railroad commissioner Lawton
T. Hemans was a member of the state
legislature through two terms
During his term OF office Mr. Os-
born accomplished more in the direc.
ton of compelling reduction OF rail
road taxation, bringing about grade
separations, requiring necessary
changes relating to dangerous over
head wires, improvements in inter.
locking arrangements, and the install
lation Of safety appliances on the rail-
roads Of Michigan than had been Sc
cured in Michigan through all its past
history.
During his two terms as a member
of the legislature Mr.. Hemans accom-
plished nothing to which he wishes
attention called at this time. He was
absent from his pest OF duty a greater
part OF the time, voted for all APP
preparation bills when he was present,
introduced bill to legalize bucket
shops, and sought to have bill passed
creating an additional state board.
This is the record to which Mr. He
mans Is not referring in this cam

accomplishments during the DAYS

OF Michigan to decide between Law.

the state and its people as the re-

COSTS NOTHING TO STATE.
Critics of Oil apd Salt inspection
Neglected to Note This.

The Democratic candidate for gov
ernor and his political supporters are
very insistent in their demand that
the state oil inspection and state
salt inspection departments shall be
abolished. They are making this
statement, so they explain, in the al
legged interest Of state economy. II is
evidently not known to Mr.. Hemans
and his friends that both these de,
partments are sources of net revenie
to the state rather than of expense.
They are both maintained by fees col
lected from the oil companies and the
salt companies and the results of
their operation through recent years
have been quite profitable to the
state. The state oil inspection de-
partment paid into the treasury more
than $4,000 last year in excess of
all its expenses, and It's net profits
this year will probably be greater. II
may or may not be true that these de-
partments are lacking great practical
value to the state, but the fact that
thny do not cost the taxpayers of
Michigan a single cent, but on the
contrary are sources of very com
Portable income entirely disposes of
Mr.. Hemans' objection to their ex.
istence.

NOT HIS FAULT.
Democratic Candidate For Governor
Tried For Appointment Under
Warner hut Failed TO and IT,

Warner, but Failed to Land II.
Mr.. Lawton T. Hemans, the Demo
cratic candidate for governor, is
greatly concerned over the fact that
Mr.. Osborn. his Republican competi-
tor, accepted an appointment at the
hands Of Governor Warner. 1t has
not occurred to him to call attention
TO the fact that he also accepted an
appointment from Governor Warner.
In 1905 he was appointed member
of the commission to select and erect
a monument in Detroit to the men,
DRY Of Steven r Mason, Michigan's
first governor. He accepted the APP
pointment and served son the commits.
sion, and some persons as critical rs
Mr.. Hemans himself in such direc.
tions are calling attention to the fact
that his expense account was four
times greater than one member of the
commission and more than twice as
large as that OF any other member
II will also be recalled by Mr. He
mans party friends that in 1907 he
was an applicant for another appoint
ment at Governor Warmers hands, the
Office sought In the latter instance
being that of member of the state
railroad commission. Tt is certainly
not Mr. Hemans' fault that he is NOT
at this time enjoying the privileges

TO SAVE LIFE
And PROPERTY
Was Purpose Of Appeal In Chase
OSbCrn's First Official
Report.
WlLLFOnCE GRADE SEPARATION
He Has Been Constant In His Con-
test For Stronger Passenger
Coaches and Greater Safeguards
For Travelling Publie-Declaratioo
Made Ten Years Ago.

The Detroit News directs favorable
attention to Chase s. Osborn's state
ments that it will be a purpose he will
have in mind if elected governor to
require the steam and electric roads
or Michigan TO use coaches construct
ed OF steel, SO far as possible as a
safeguard for the lives of passengers,
and to force the separation OF
grades where needed. The News re-
fers to these statements as very COM
mendable but new lines Of enthusiasm
in the interest of safety on the part
of Mr.. Osborn.
AS matter of fact, in his first re-
port as state railroad commissioner
in 1901, Mr.. Osborn called attention
to the inevitable loss of life in time
of collision or otheY accident through
the use of the comparatively light
passenger coaches then in use, and be
urged that the best possible cars
should take the place of coaches
which could not stand the car strain
inevitable in cases of emergency. Only
the strongest, heaviest and best cars
Commissioner Osborn urged, should
be acceptable to good railroad man
agement
1t is further true that in his very
| first report as state railroad commits
sioner, Mr.. Osborn gave more empha
sis to his appeal in behalf of arbitrary
requirement for separation of steam
railroad and electric railroad grades
in Michigan than to any other sub
! ject In that first report he make:
this declaration: There is absolutel,
no way to adequately protect life anC
| property at railroad crossings excep
| by separation of grades"
It will be noted therefore that Chas,
s. Osborn's active interest in behal
of steel railway coaches and the sep
aration of grades is not by any means
a new access Of enthusiasm, but it il
in harmony with the purpose he ha
persistently held and so far as pos
sible has sought to bring about.

The fact that Mr.. Roosevelt has writ

Election OF Townsend ~ United
States Senator Can Only Come
Through Republican 4 eoI.I.turs

Election Of Townsend n United
States Senator Can Only Come
Through Republican Legislature.
Attention has been called to the
fact, but II can well be repeated, that
the election Of a Republican United
States senator In Michigan as the re-
suit of the coming state election can
only be accomplished through the
election of Republican members OF the
state legislature. Congressman Charles
E. Townsend was made the candi-
date of the Republicans OF Michigan
at the primary election, but under the
terms of our state constitution the
senator from this state must be for.
mally elected by the next state legis
lature. Failure on the part of Michi-
gan Republicans to elect a majority
of the legislature would result In the
defeat of Mr.. Townsend and the cleo.
ton of a Democratic senator from
this state. Your vote for the Repub-
lican candidate for member of the
legislature from your district will be
vote for Mr.. Townsend for United
States senator. and in no other way
at this time can the individual Repub-
lican voter assist in Mr.. Townsend's
election. 1t is important not only to
the Republicans of Michigan but to
all who are interested in the progress
and advancement of our state that
this matter should be kept clearly In
mind.
