Before the Court

Alvin Bush and Mrs. Henry Spencer
were brought into Justice Lapham's
court Wednesday on a charge of alb
Quoting the Bush girl, by Deputy Sher-
i'll Webster, and the case was contin-
ued for investigation. 1t is claimed
they took the child out of charity and
sympathy and to get her out of sur
roundings and environments that are
very bad indeed. 1t is said the child
is about half starved most of the time
and is cuffed around so much that she
is now quite deaf from the beatings.
Mrs. Spencer says she is willing to care
for her and is unwilling that she should
go back to her parents. The county
agent and prosecuting attorney have
been notified.

WILLIAM j. Bryan's statement that
he would not become candidate for
United States senator i'm Nebraska be-
cause of the fact that that would ham
per him in his fight against the saloon
interests of that state may not be read
lily understood by those who are afraid
TO take any position on the saloon ques-
ton for fear it will injure their politi-
cal or their business interests. But
Mr.. Bryan fully understands saloon
tactics and saloon politics, and the
position he takes is thoroughly credit
able TO his courage and TO his sincerity
in opposition to the liquor traffic. And
more and more is the threat of the
saloon, TO put an end TO the political
existence of all who dare TO openly OPP
pose it, being fully accepted by the
bravest and best men of all political
parties and of varying religious creeds.

the nomination for this office.

Sincerity Imprsssss.

One OF the first stops made by Mr.
Osborn on his campaign tour through
the lower peninsula was at Pressure
lie. II. II. Whitley, editor of the
News makes the following comment
on Mr.. Osborn's visit:
Hon. Chase 8. Osborn, candidate
for the Republican nomination for
Governor, stepped unostentatiously
from the train last Friday afternoon
and in his short stay Of two hours
had won the united friendship and
support of our community.
While his coming had been known
only a. day ahead and suitable ar
rangements for his reception were
impossible on such short notice, new
ertneless considerable number
greeted him and listened to a fine
address on good citizenship. Mr.. o.
born has that magnetic personality
which enables him to gain the favor
OF his audience and carry them with
him to the end.
He impresses everyone with his
square toed sincerity. He does not
mince matters. He defines his posi-
ton on every question In such a way
as leaves no doubt as to 1ust where
ne stands. He does not endeavor to
give an answer that will please both
sides.
His brilliant intellectual TALENT ava
MS literary and oratorical ability
mark him at once as a gentleman
who would give to the goernor's chair
an atmosphere OF culture which would
De most fitting. The Office would be
an honor to the man and the man
would he an honor to the Office.

At WaDasis Lake

Chas. Wise, who is acting as steward
of the Wabasis club, is doing big LOT
of improving at that famous club house
this season. New paint has been used
all about the grounds and the club
house shines like the scintillating rays
of KOorinohr. The grove has been
thoroughly raked and cleaned and a
fine new gate has been installed and
take it all in all, the place never looked
as inviting as it does today. Mr.. Wise
is evidently the right man in the right
place.

The census reports are already prov
ing disappointment as regards the
rural population in some of the counties
of the middle west. There is an actual
decrease in population, due, in large
measure, TO the increased size of farms.
This necessarily means fewer families,
and that is in every way misfortune
The freehold farmer is, more perhaps,
than any other person, the back bone of
the community, and any decrease in
this class cannot fail TO be injurious to
the best interests OF the country. Rather
should there be more and smaller farms
more thoroughly cultivated and form
ing the happy homes of sturdy, in
dependent freeholders.

Louise, the youngest daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. w. ID. Ballou, was stricken
the first OF the week with an attack Of
appendicitis. The attending physician
failed TO get 1t under control and found
1t necessary for an operation. DIR.
Smith OF Butterworth hospital, Grand
Rapids, was called and made hurried
trip here in his auto and operated on
the little sufferer Tuesday night. She
passed through the operation success
fully and it Is now hoped that she will
recover. A trained nurse from Grand
Rapids is looking after her.

SENATOR Will Bradley of Greenville
is likely TO have opposition in his re-
turn to the upper house this fall. Her
bert +. Powell of Ionia, it is said, ex-
poets TO contest the nomination with
Bradley although Bradley has served
but one term. For years it was the
custom for Ionia and Montcalm to
alternately hold the honor, but in the
last eight years Ionia has held it three
times and Montcalm but two. Two
years ago Ionia did not support Brad
ley for the nomination and it seems
apparent the old feeling will not die
and Ionia will attempt to beat him TO it
this year.

BEER and alcoholic spirits of all
kinds do more TO encourage the devel-
opment of tuberculosis and lead TO
more deaths from consumption than
any other single known cause. This
statement is made by DR.. Jaques Bert
illion, the well-known French physi-
clan and author of the finger-print
system of police records. DIR. Bertillion
bases his statements on official statis-
tics taken from records in France and
England and other countries. 1t is
alcoholism of the kind induced by con-
slant consumption of quantities of beer
and spirits that must first be effective
ly fought if tuberculosis is ever to be
stamped out, says the French expert

MEN WHO WILL

IN MIODLESEX
Those Who Have Passed the
Examipation and Quail
fled for the Position.
ONLY ONE PERFECT PAPER
IN ENTIRE DISTRICT

Following is a list of appoint
ments for census enumerators in
Middlesex county, which is part of
the Third District of New Jersey.
About a hundred of the appoint
ments throughout the district have
received their commissions, and
some of the balance have not yet
been absolutely decided upon by the
census department, although their
appointment is a reasonable proba-
bility.
About ESQ persons took the exam
ining test" for appointment. OF
this number about 100 persons
passed within the limit of eligibility.
About ninety persons failed and
demonstrated by their papers their
unfitness for appointment.
Some of the appointments were
made in districts for which there
was no applicant of persons who did
not take any "test," by reason of the
fact that the time did not permit it.
Out of the entire number of per-
sons examined, only one person, and
that person being from Ocean coun-
ty, passed an absolutely perfect ex-
animation, although there was quite
number who had comparatively
few mistakes, and many who passed
very creditable examination, their
errors being chiefly errors in form.

2 TRACKS ON
SHERIDAN ST.
FOR TROLLEY

The pile driver used on the construe.
tion work of the new trolley. trestle
across the Raritan river was again re.
paired Saturday and the work of driv-
ing piles has been resumed. A feature
adding efficiency to the system will be
double tracks on Sheridan street.
According to the speed with which
the work is presently progressing, all
the plies will probably be driven by
the early part of next week. As has
been told, the river bottom is soft and
muddy on the north side and eonse-
quently pile driving there is slow work.
A superintendent of bridge construc-
tion has been placed on the job. The
present spring weather permits the work
to be rushed without interference
Judging from the present indications
the work will be completed in due time
and cars are expected to be running
about June Is.
Maps of the proposed route of the
Jersey Central line in this city are be-
ing prepared. According to present
plans, double tracks will be used in
Sheridan street. In that case better
service can be expected than if single
line tracks were used.

HOUSE QUIET
AFTER STORM
JUST PASSED
Work Resumed at Noon To-
day With Speaker Cannon
Presiding--The Routine.
INSURGENTS ARE ANGRY
Ar HIS REMARKS
Special eu untted Press wsre.

Special by United Press Wire.
Washington, March 21:-The
House resumed work at noon today
with uncle Joe" in the chair. Only
routine business was transacted the
first half hour, and on the surface
there was no indication of the turbu-
lent experience of the last week.
The most far-reaching result of
last weeks revolution will be full
discussion on the floor of the Taft
legislative program, according to in
surgent leaders today. Representa-
tive Norris said he believed last
weeks victory was a step towards
fulfillment of republican party plat
form pledges. Regarding Represen-
tative Burleson's motion to oust the
Speaker, he said he was against 1t
because they must have more against
Cannon before ousting him. Can
non, he said, did nothing not al
lowed by the rules. Representative
Murdoch says II the Burleson mo-
tion was not presented when 1t was,
Cannon would have been unseated
before the end of the week.
There is much speculation regard
ing the democrats to be elected to
the new committee on rules. The
names suggested are Clark of Mis-
souri,; Underwood, of Alabama; !;
Fitzgerald, of New York; James, of
Kentucky; Hay, Virginia; Howard.
Georgia; or Henry, Texas. The
probable republican committee will
be Payne, New York; Dalzell, Penn
sylvania; Tawney, Minnesota; Mann,
Illinois; Vreeland, New York; Nc
Kinley, Illinois. II the insurgents
get committee position, Norris, of
Nebraska, is likely candidate.
Champ Clark, the minority leader,
says the democrats are In better
shape now than for twenty years.
He does not look for any trouble to-
day or tomorrow. The democrats
will caucus for the new committee
members Thursday or Friday He
said the minority have not decided
on any of their members.
The insurgents are enraged over the
denunciation by the speaker before
the Illinois Republican association, In
which he referred to those Republic
ans who hal voted against his dispo-
sition as towards" There is a
strong possibility that motion to de-
pose him will be made again, and In
the. present mood of the insurgents it
probably would pass.
The next great battle will come over
the selection of the new rules COM
mittee, which will comprise six Re-
pubhcans and four Democrats. to be
