thing but they are likewise a danger
GUS thing for some. Like dynamite,
they are all right if used right and all
wrong if used wrong. Are you demo-
crat? Well and good, but do not sup
pose that all democrats are as jealous
in their country's welfare as you may
be. Are you a republican? Well and
good, but do not imagine that all re-
publicans are fit to hold Office simply
because they are republicans. In other
words it is the man for whom we gre
voting, and not the party. The general
principles that govern every political
party must be very nearly right or
that party could not exist very long.
The general principles that govern
the life of the private citizen and Of
fee seeker may be radically wrong,
and yet if allied to an influential politi-
cal party. he may be elected to an Of
flee of responsibility and trusr. 1t is
self-evident then. that We shaald vote
for the party with which he may be
oficiate. 4 e
And so, Mr.. Voter, do not imagine
that you are doing the patriotic thing
necessarily when you vote the straight
ticket. In many cases it is simply an
indication of laziness or Of criminal in
difference on your part as to what sort
Of men fill our public Offices. Great
men have not fought for political par
ties. Ethan Allen did not demand the
surrender of Fort Ticonderoga in the
name, of the Wing party; General An
drew jackson did not repei the English
at New Orleans, that the democratic
party might live; Col. Theodore Roose-
welt did not lead his Rough Riders up
San Juan Hill in the face of the Spanish
fire for the glory of the republican
party; and neither should we cast our
ballots that our political party may
flourish. But with a nobler motive
than the advancement Of any political
party, with loftier ideal than is repre-
.sented by any political machine. we
should SO vote that our ballots may be
a credit to our loyalty and intelligence,
may help to exalt America, and may
stand as an exponent Of the principles
of good government, clean politics and
liberty.

MUSSELMAN VISITS PAW PAW
Continued from Page l.

every republican voter to attend the pri-
for the various candidates as the dictates
of his own conscience told him was right.
Mr. Musselman's remarks were plain
and to the point. They were in striking
contrast to the scathing and vitriolic
TRADES of Mr.. Osborn. Tie said in part,
that there was a great dissatisfaction 10
the ranks OF the republicans of Mich
igan. That the majority had been cut
down in the state from $4,000 to bare
10000. He had been urged two years
ago to enter the contest, but had re-
fused, and now he had acceded to the
appeal OF 10000 petitions of Kent county
and was in the hands of the republicans
of Michigan. He had no political ambit-
tons he said, but was business man Of
years Of experience, and thought that
the same principles which made a sue
cessful bnssiness ought to apply to the
administration of state\ affairs. Ii nom.
mated and elected, he promised to see
that the laws we're inforced, and would
apply sound business principles to the
administration of his duties.
He had the kindliest OF feeling, he
said toward the other candidates for gov.
ernor. Both however, were professional
politicians, one defending the admir- is
tration, and the other, knocking, knock
ing, knocking. He was doing neither.
He was a republican and believed 10 the
sound principles of the republican party.
He believed however, that every citizen
should take a hand in the political affairs
OF the state and nation, and do every
thing in their power to maintain the
party.
The primary law he said was not per-
feet, but he liked the system. 1t is the
duty of every republican to participate
in the selection of candidates for the var.
ious offices. He spoke briefly OF the
scandals in the state, and stated that in
his opinion, they we're caused by the fact
that politics had become the dominant
factor in the administration of state
affairs. He also said there would be a
deficiency in the state treasury the first
Of January and that the thought was
humiliating to him.
In closing he said that he wanted the
citizens OF the state to study his record,
and that all he wanted was a square
deal. Davis Haven of Bloomingdale &C.
