Would Not Accept Nomination.

Several months ago stated publicly
that / should not again be a candi-
date for prosecuting attorney and
relying upon that statement other gen.
tlemen have announced their candidacy
and it would not be right for me now
to say that would run if nominated
appreciate the honor have enjoyed
at the hsnds of the people of Shiawassee
county and it is source of satisfaction
to know that many people in different
parts Of the county would be pleased to
have me- serve another term. I could
not honorably accept nomination and
I hope my friends will consider this as
final" This is the statement made by
Prosecuting Attorney Hicks to THE
TIMES when asked what position he
would take in case petitions were filed
with the county clerk containing suffi-
cient signatures to give him place on
the official ballot at the primary elec-
tion, petitions being in circulation in
several localities. Much as we should
be pleased to have Mr.. Hicks continue
in his present official position it seems
to us that his view is the right one and
that his friends should accept it as final.
That the people of the county are uni
versally satisfied with his management
of the Office is equally true.

Help a Good Cause.

There is apparently no opposition to
the proposition to vote $4,000 in city
bonds to establish city hospital. The
one thing essential is for everyone in
terested in the question is to be sure to
vote at the special election on the 9th
inst. The need of the hospital is gener-
ally admitted and while the sum to be
appropriated is far too small still it is
sufficient to stai the project with the
hope that later on additional amounts
will be granted Do not fail to register
and vote "Yes."
