Port Huron, Aug. 81, 1910.
TO the Electors of st. Clair County:
| was nominated on the Repul Ii
can ticket at the Primaries in Septem-
Der 1908 by the largest plurality of any
candidate OH the ticket and in spite of
a Guerilla" campaign that was Vicious
ly and mal;ciously waged against me
by few members of my own party,
was elected by a very substantial ma
jority.
Since my election | have given the
office my personal attention and it has
been my aim to conduct the office in
the same economical and business-like
manner, that | conduct my farm and |
would respectively refer you to the re.
port of the Board of Auditors in con-
tirmatiOn of this statement. 1t has al
so been my aim to extend courteous
and impartial treatment to those who
have business at the Clerks office.
The work of the Office has made it
impossible for me TO see many of the
individual voters but if you think the
experience in the duties of the Office of
my first term has better fitted me for
the usual second term that has always
been in former years accorded to all
County officers, | would be pleased if
you would attend the Primary on Sep
TENDER 9th and use your influence and
vote to assist me in securing this nom
nation. Respectfully yours

The st. Clair County Press of st.
Clair where Fred Brown was born and
educated and where he is thoroughly
known had this TO say on August 10Th
1910.
lst. lie should be nominated and
elected because he has kept his prom.
Uses by enforcing the laws.
End. He has been Independent, fear
less and impartial in the performance
of his duties.
Bird. He has made good record in
the trial of two murder cases and others
of great Importance.
4th. He is an able lawyer and Wig
orous prosecutor,
5th His able and efficient service
during his first term, as well as patron
age, entities him TO second term"
There is another good reason why
Mr.. Brown should be renominated and
reelected to the Office of Prosecuting
Attorney, namely; because, for the first
time in the history of this county the
saloon-keepers at st. Clair Flats have
been compelled to pay regular license
fees. In the past there has been no eff
fort made to make them give bonds
and they have paid amounts ranging
from S24 to $500: The very first year
that Fred Brown was Prosecuting At
torney he insisted that these liquor
dealers furnish bond and pay regular
license fee for the same as other deal
ers.
His course in this matter has not
only been beneficial to st. Clair County
in financial way, but having paid the
regular license fee and furnished bonds
which were approved by the Township
Board there is protection to the public
against illegal selling TO minors and
other prohibited persons.
These are few of the many things
that have shown Fred Brown to be an
able, independent and honest public

Wherever strong man appears for
Office ne is bound to find opposition.
And, as the time for election approach
es, that opposition peters out to almost
nothing. That's what's happened in
the contest for the nomination for the
Office of county treasurer and it's now
admitted that Ed. Vincent will lead his
ticket. Ed. is clean cut man and not
a word could be said against him. His
banking experience and his service of
two years as deputy in the county
treasurer's Office has fitted him for the
duties of the Office to which he aspires
He comes from a sturdy stock-a farm
er's boy-and has made his way to the
front in the city of Port Huron. He
has several times been mentioned as

has refused to become candidate for
the office. Ed. is straightforward and
square and we wish him all kinds of
success.

COUNTY TREASURER
of Port Huron Township
for the Republican Nomination
Primaries. Tuesday. september 6, iVl,

Primaries. Tuesday. September 6, 1910
While | have every respect for my opponent
and wish to speak of him only In the most friend
ly terms, the laws of the State of Michigan re-
quire that the Office of County Treasurer shall
not be held more than two continuous terms or
four years by any one person, and from the fact
that IL has practically been held continuously
for Ii years by this family, stephen Moore hav-
ing been County Treasurer and deputy during
all these years, descending as IL has from father
to son and now 10 the son-in-law, IL appears TO
me thai this is a question for deep consideration
by the enrolled Republicans OF the county. VIII
we adopt the method of foreign lands and be-
come heir to office?
CONSIDER THE QUESTION.
When any bank or combination of men control
the political situation in the County. their candi-
date for County office must become obligated
to them in order to get their support, and he is
thus robbed of his brthright, his freedom as an
American citizen, 1t is up TO the voters to pre-
vent such action under our primary system. In
fact you should condemn any action that has
tendency TO deprive primary reform of its purl-
ty.
We must condemn deputy promotion as An
tagonistic to primary reform, for the reason that
the official IN appointing his deputy. thereby
names his successor In office, consequently pac-
ing the Judgment in one man instead of the
voters.
Every effort should be put forth to purify the
political situation under primary reform, from
that of the convention system for the past twelve
years. Respectfully yours.

LOOKS LIKE A WINNER
Cramton Leading in the Congress
iOnal Race.


An especially interesting contest in
next Tuesdays primaries is that for the
nomination for the next Congressman
from this district. 1t looks like Cram
ton of Lapeer for the next Congress
man. Not only are the newspapers of
the district very generally out and out
for him but all of his meetings are be-
ing well attended. His fearless utter
ances are received with enthusiasm and
evidences of general support of his can
didacy among the voters abounds.
Cramton has made game fight, and
one that required nerve to enter upon as
he knew when he entered that the old
Seventh district machine, most of the
postmasters and old time politicians
would be against him. He has taken
his cause to the people Of the district
and they seem to like his way.
His platform is definite and in the
popular interest. 1t includes advocacy
of national aid to good roads, parcels
post, valuation of railroads, VS.. basis of
rate regulation. He opposes Cannon,
and the proposed contract system for
rural mail delivery. His nomination
will be body blow to machine domin-
alton in this district, as he is iDdepen-
dent of the machine and says that in
such things as postoflce appointments,
he will consult the people rather than
farm them out to county chairmen.
1t will be worth while to remember
Cramton next Tuesday.

LOWER RATES FOR
UPPER BERTHS IN
PULLMAN CARS
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Announces Reduction of
20 Per Cent. in Fares.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1s.-Tentative
approval of the Interstate Commerce
Commission has been given to the
fixed charge for upper berths in Pull
man cars at so per cent. of the charge
now paid for lower berths. The new
charge is to become effective through
out the United States on or before
January 20. 1911.
Commissioner Lane announced today
that the Pullman company had accept
ed the conclusions of the commission
in what are known as the Lotus cases.,
that the rates for long distances on
lower berths and on all upper berths
should be reduced. The commissions
statement says:
at is estimated hat the reduction
which will be made upon all of the
lines over which Pullman cars are
operated in the United States, which
include all of the main line railroads of
the United States, excepting the New
Haven road, the Great Northern and
the Milwaukee, will effect a net reduc-
ton OF nearly 81. 800, 900 annually. The
new rates for the lower berths appear
to be based upon a charge of 81 for a
twelve-hour run, excepting on some of
the fastest trains, the upper berth
rate being 20 per cent lower than the
newly established rate upon lower
berths.'

NO FREE LIST FOR
WOODROW WILSON
INAUGURAL BALL
Adjntant- General Sadler Dis
cusses Plans for Coming So=
ciety Event at Trenton.
Especial to the Newark star.l

TRENTON, Dec. 19.-Following a
conference today with Governor-elect
Wilson, Governor Fort and Colonel Mel
son Y. DUNCAN, commanding the Sec
ond Regiment, Adjutant-G General Sadler
discussed the plans for the inaugural
ball, which will be given in the Second
Regiment Armory the evening of Janu-
airy II.
He stated hat the ball will be given
according to the plans already an
nounced, which means that it will be
n of the most brilliant functions yer
held in this State. General Sadler said
there was a mistaken impression abroad
about the affair, which was hat the
State would be expected to meet some
of the expense.
"Th is untrue" he declared, las
every dollar of expense will be assumed
by the commander of the Second Regi-
ment, and, as stated in the invitations
sent to those asked to serve on the COM
mittee. If there is any surplus it will
go into the treasury of he regiment"
Another thing emphasized by General
Sadler was that there will be no COM
~plimentary tickets issued at all. except
to Governor Wilson. in whose honor
the ball is given, and to the members
of his party. The admission tickets
will be S. and each ticket will admit a
gentleman and two ladies.
There Will be no free list," General
Sadler reiterated.
Owing to the fact that Governor Fort
will be compelled to give some time to
the public inaugural reception al the
State House In the evening, the grand
march at the ball will not take place
until 10 o'clock p. m.
The committee will be announced to-
morrow. General Sadler will be e n
eral chairman. Richard Stockton, Of
this city, will be chairman of the COM
mittee on decorations. Colonel DUNCAN
will superintend the Issue of the invi-
tations.

NEWARK CO=DEFENDANT
TO PRESERVE IT'S WELLS.
Chief Engineer Sherrerd Defines
City's Stand.

That Newark intends to challenge the
right of the Hudson Water Company to
use wells in the vicinity of those owned
by this city, as part of the plan to
secure a water supply that will be
used for Staten Island, was made evil
lent on Saturday when Chief Engineer
Sherrerd sent a letter to Attorney
General Edmund Wilson, at Red Bank,
asserting Newark's position In the
matter.
The Hudson company has already
brought suit in the Federal court to
defeat the State in it's effort to prevent
the diversion of water from this State
to Staten Island, n from the present
attitude of this city Newark will be a
co-defendant with the State in the
suit,
It is commended by Mr.. Sherrerd that
the plan to drive wells in the vicinity
of those owned by Newark Is contrary
to the decision of the courts in the
Meeker case, at which time 1t was held
that no one has a right to dispose Of
subterranean water from his property
IL it Is going to affect the flow of water
on property owned by someone else.
This is exactly what would happen If
the Hudson company's plan is adopted.
The company's suit against the State
Is based on the claim that the diversion
of water to Staten Island Is an inter-
State proposition and some
thing over which this State has no
complete control.
If Newark joins the State in defend
Ing the suit the case will De much
stronger, so far as the co-defendants
are concerned, as this city's right to
protect its water supply and insure the
maximum flow from its own wells will
undoubtedly receive serious c~onsidera-
ton from. the court, and this in itself
may be enough to defeat the action of
the Hudson company and sidetrack
that part of the company's plans which
involves the use Of wells In this part
of the State.

WOMAN BAD CHECK
CASHIER In THE TOLLS.

Mrs. May Strauss, who is said to have
cashed SO many bad checks in the Hill
section that the business folk hold their
doors shut against her, did, neverthe-
less. succeed in dispensing another one
to Samuel Seid, at IS Kent street.
It was such a proper appearing
check, payable to Mrs. Strauss herself,
and drawn on a bank no further away
than Baltimore, that Seid took 1t in
payment for two suits of clothes with
out a murmur and gave Mrs. Strauss
So 80 in change.
That was November % and the check
came back in time so that Mrs. Strauss
was to nave beef arraigned for passing
it this morning. She was taken ill,
however, and went to the City Hospital
instead. The police say that Mrs.
Strauss spends most of her spare time
writing checks on banks where she
hasn't any money. and they say that
lately she has had a great deal of spare
time.
