bring about better understanding
between the northern and southern
divisions of the state, for the purpose
of obtaining a greater and more har-
monious Michigan. This aim has been
nullifed, TO some extent, by the cam

by Mr.. Kelly, In which he disappoint-
ed his better friends.

he has repeatedly stated he did not
wish to be considered as a candidate.
Many insist that if the convention
nominates him he will be forced to ac-
cept whether he so desires or not and
ii is well known he would make a
strong run in view of his great service
in New York city as mayor. He will
be opposed by "Fingy" Conners, who
backs "Bill" Sulzer as the strongest

BooMs WESTERN AUSTRALIA
Explorer Says There Arc 100000
Square Miles for Settlement

London, Sept "a tract of 600. =
600 square miles of empire, hitherto
believed to be unfit for the white man.
Is declared by Mr.. A. w. Canning an
Australian explorer to be capable of
supporting a great white population.
The land in question is the northern
territory Of Western Australia. TT
is suitable for dairy work, for the
growing of wheat. cotton, rice, sugar
and all tropical crops" Mr.. Canning
said; The average level of land is
LOO feet above the sea. The climate
is perfect" Mr.. Canning was deputed
by the government of Western Aus
tralia to make a ''stock road" through
the province in a region which was
generally considered an impossible
country He has completed this, and
Is now in London. He told the story
OF how he constructed a chain of wells
from Wilma (about 450 miles north
of PERTH to the River Sturt near
Kimberly.
''I was two years engaged on the
job, and have left wells right across
for 500 miles, so that these are suffi-
cient to water stock, and an immense
area Is opened up. Many of these
wells will yield more than 1000 gal
Ions per hour. They are on an aver
age fourteen miles apart and at each
there Is sufficient water for herds of
from three hundred to five hundred
head of cattle. At one well at depth
of nine feet l got 4,300 gallons per
hour. We had to take all our own
equipment and food supplies for two
years. Our party consisted of twenty
six men, and we took sixty-two cam
els and 400 goats with us. Timed
meat was an impossibility; we lived
on goats flesh, and had the milk of
the goats also. To prove that the cli-
mate is good and the water plentiful,
there was not one case of serious ILL
ness. In the preliminary expedition
one man was speared by the natives,
who were hostile to us at first. We
have made new highway between
Northern and Southern Australia
with waterway that will enable peo-
pie to prospect on both sides i'm a land
which is possibly rich I'm minerals,
and has the finest pastoral territory
i'm the world. A great part of what
is called the desert is covered with
edible spinifex, while saltbush-one
of the best foods for sheep-is also
found"

Election Today Brings to Close
One Of Hardest Fought Cam
paigns in Michigan's
History
many CONGRESSIONAL FIGHTS
Outcome of the Election Is Eagerly
Awaited in All Sections of State
Senatorial and Governorship
Fights Warm

Lansing, Mich, Sept. GA state
wide primary election is in progress
throughout Michigan today for the
nomination Of candidates for COVER
nor and other State officers, repre-
sentatives in Congress and members
of the legislature which will choose
United States senator. Senator
Julius c. Burrows and Congressman
CHARLES E. Townsend are rival cam
dldates for United States senat Jr.
Their names appear on the Republi-
can primary ballot and both have
agreed that the one receiving the
largest vote shall be the choice of the
Republican legislators of the state for
election
The contest between Burrows and
townsend for the senatorship has
been one of the most spirited fights
Of its kind that Michigan has seen
for years. Both have stunped the
state from end to end. Mr.. Townsend
is known as a progressive Republi-
can, while Mr.. Burrows is known as
conservative. Both of the candid
ates are willing to be known as
friends of President Taft. No Demo-
cratic aspirant for the senatorship
has entered the primary, but the
name of w. A. Taylor of Battle Creek
appears on the bollat as the choice
of the Prohibitionists to succeed SEN
ator Burrows.
Next to the senatorship fight the
Republican contest for the guberna-
torial nomination is attracting most
attention. Three candidates for this
honor are Chase s. Osborn, Patrick
III. Kelley. the present lieutenant gov
ernor, and Amos s. Musselman of
Grand Rapids. The prevailing belief
appears to be that either Osborn or
Kelley will receive the nomination.
The Democratic nominee will be Law
ton T. Hemans, who was the candid
ate two years ago and made an ex-
cellent showing against Governor
Warner. +. w. Corbett of Lansing
and Joseph Warnock of Harbor
Springs will head the Prohibition and
Socialist tickets, respectively.
Congressman DENLY of the First
district. Hamilton of the Fourth.
Smith of the Sixth. Mclaughlin of
the Ninth and Dodds of the Eleventh
are unopposed for denomination. Hem
ry c. Smith and w. w. Wedemeyer
are fighting for the Republican NOM
ination in the Second district, now
represented by Congressman Town
send. In the Third district Congress-
man Gardner has a hard fight on his
hands, and the same condition pre-
walls in the Fifth district. where May
or Ellis of Grand Rapids is opposing
Congressman Diekema. In the Sew
enth district Congressman McMorraE

to win OUT Congressman Fordney
