VERNON WON'T DEBATE.
Declines Challenge To Discuss Good
Roads With Il. 8. Earle.

Horatio S. Earle, former state high
way commissioner and the father of
the good roads movement in Michi-
gan, has issued a challenge to Aid.
James Vernon, through the Detroit
Board of Commerce, to meet him in a
public debate on the question of bond
ing Wayne county for $2,000,000 for
good roads. The board has gone 80
far as to engage the Light Guard arm
DRY for Monday evening, and agrees
to bear all the expense, but Aid. Yer
nor declared, positively, Thursday af-
ternoon, that he would not accept the
challenge.
There is nothing to debate as far
as I am concerned" said Mr.. Vernon.
Il have given my figures, showing that
1t would cost approximately $279,0
to advance the work Of road building
under the bonding plan. IL the Board
OF Commerce or Mr.. Earle or anyone
else can refute those figures, let them
do so through the press That is the
only possible ground for discussion
and my side Of the argument has been
clearly stated. | am satisfied that my
figures are correct, and II is simply a
question of whether the people want
to pay $4,000 for the sake of adj
vancing that work. II they think it
Is worth that much, let them vote
YES otherwise they should vote
no."

ROME, Nov. "a feeling of unrest

Is partly due TO the recent prodigious

to popular discomfort with the oppres.

partly to the contagion of the example

manifesting itself among the politi.

things we hope for when the new zoo

trouble is that the sea lions have TO
rush out Of warm room directly into
the cold air before they get to the

with subway out under the water.
Then Mr.. and Mrs. Sea Lion could
merely slip down cellar, swim out
about 10 feet, and come up in the air
without any injury TO their health,
and we could have them under some

The Roosevelt band wagon is
crowded. Politicians who are still
in Saratoga are clambering aboard
today and are ready to get in line
for the ticket selected by the con-
vention at its closing session.
Although the delegates who are

strain and excitement of the past
two days, Colonel Roosevelt, with
his untiring energy, already has
befun plans for the campaign. A
complete reorganization of the
party in the state is predicted.
The old leaders will be dropped
from places of responsibility and
the party management put into
new hands.
The politicians are confident of
victory at the coming election.
Gaynor's announced withdrawal
from the race for the demicratic
nomination for the governorship is
another fact that Is expected to
help.
Roosevelt's own personality
however. is the chief cause of the
confidence.
