Few bishops have to lead such a
strenuous life as Bishop Stringer. In
company with missionary companion
he made a tour recently to Herschel
island. in the Arctic ocean. and back
to Dawson City, where the bishop re-
sides.
Their small supply of food becoming
exhausted, they were obliged to eat
their muckalucks and moccasins.
These, made of raw sealskins, were
soaked until they became glutinous.
and were then toasted in strips over
the fire. The bishop says the food
was real good, especially the mucka-
lucks.

investigate Tax Assessments.

Since the encouragement gave out
the opinion that the state tax commits
sion has power to review and equal
lie tax assessments anywhere in the
state on complaint Of interested par
ties, the commission has been be-
sieged by requests for this service
from all over the state. An investi-
cation will be begun in Jackson soon,
and will be followed by visits to Flint,
Grand Rapids and to Bay county and
other sections. 1t is claimed that in
Jackson residence property is as
sessed at only 80 per cent of the real
value.
"The department has but 10 men
available for this work, and the work
must be done between June and
October" said Secretary Carton
Enough applications have been filed
to keep these 10 men busy"
The complaints, 1t is stated, are
filed by private persons, and none has
been received from any railroads. II
has long been the allegation of the
railroads that private property own
ers and holders of personally are as.
sessed away under the true cash
value figure.

Accurate reports from practical men
In Is counties on the western side o.
Michigan, made at a meeting of the
Western Michigan Development bu
reau, at Traverse City, show that the
fruit crop in the counties heard from
will be normal, and in some cases
better than the average. In no case
was there a discouraging note heard
and the result of the roll call of the
counties has greatly pleased growers
and shippers of the whole section.
Earlier reports as to damage to
cherries are modified by later and
more reliable returns, and the most
that can be said OF damage is that In
some limited districts 1t may reach
10 per cent Some growers say that
little more frost would have aided
in thinning out the blooms and would
have been more satisfactory in some
respects.
All the growers interviewed declare
that the cherry crop forms only q
tenth or fifteenth OF the total fruit
crop in any event and attach no I'M
portance to damage stories.
The counties reporting the crop con
ditions are: Antrim. Benzie, Charlie

Fees Mount to eoodIy FIGURE.

During the past four months the
secretary OF states department has
turned into the state treasury the
sum of s77413.06. The total collec-
ton of franchise fees, which are paid
by corporations for authority to do
business in this state, during the
month of January was $6,7S740. In
February the amount was $9,0GS 2G;
in March, S12,949.S7, and April, 49,
1909; a total for the period of $751;
$3.50. This money all goes into the
general fund for the expenses of gov
eminent. The auto license fee bust
ness has grown to proportions where
II is a pretty fair income-maker for
the state. During the last legislative
session Ii was suggested that all auto
license fees be turned into the high
way fund for the construction and
maintenance of good roads This was
found to be impracticable, and instead
the lawmakers added $4,000 to the
highway department appropriation, es-
timating that sufficient fees would be
collected for automobile licenses TO
turn that amount into the state treas
ury. Secretary Martindale's depart.
ment, however, has collected more
than that for auto licenses in the first
four months of the year, and applica-
lions are coming in at the rate of
about 100 a day. In January, auto
licenses Melted the department So

NATIONAL GUARD

MICHIGAN NATIONAL GUARD HAS
BEEN UNUSUALLY UNFORTU-
NATE AT THIS CAMP.
State Treasury Has Received S77,413oe
In Four Months for Corpora
ton Franchises and Auto
Owners Fees.

The First brigade, Michigan Ma
tional guard, will not go to camp this
year as brigade. This has been
definitely settled by the state military
board, and the decision will be warmly
greeted by all the soldiers affected.
This is the year the national guard
is supposed to take part in the gov
eminent maneuvers at Fort Benjamin
Harrison, Indianapolis, Ind. Michigan
has been unusually unfortunate at this
camp. Four years ago a small cyclone
swept over their camp and lowered
every tent to the ground. Two years
ago, when the Michigan soldiers land
ed In camp, the dust was almost knee
deep, and the last days in camp heavy
rain storms were the rule, and mud
was as deep as the sand had been.
None OF the Michigan soldiers are In
favor OF going to Fort Harrison, but
in order to get possession OF the $685.

gan National guard, at least one regi-
ment will have to take part in the

from the upper peninsula and north

First infantry, commanded by Col.
John p. Kirk, of which eight compa-
MES are located in Detroit, will take
a ten days march through the state.
While this has not been definitely de-
cided on, officers of the regiment are
in favor Of the program, and it is
quite likely that the state military
board will consent to the change II
the First infantry takes the cross
country march it will be the first
regiment to take such a march In
many years. Troop B took a similar
march last summer, and will take an
other one this year
1t is quite likely that the First in

Changing the Law

The Elma Chronicle suggests the law
should be changed so as to permit
county school superintendents 10 serve
more than TWO consecutive terms. AS
the term limit is a constitutional pro
vision. its change would be difficult
even If desirable.
The provision OF the constitution
limiting all county officers 10 TWO
terms, is generally considered wise, a.
though occasionally it may displace
a good official. The danger, under our
system OF employing county officials
through their political faith, would lie
in the difficulty in Earring smooth
politician on his job, whether his ser
vices were satisfactory or not.
There is no argument in favor OF
taking the limit of school officials that
would not apply 10 any other officer
OF the county, and that limit may be
removed some day. That Will be
when the people have become sutfi-
GENTLY enlightened 10 discard the old
system, and saect county officers with
sole regard 10 securing the most eff
cienr men for the positions.
When this transpires, We will have
a real primary election law. A law
that Will ignore party politics in all
but national Offices, law such as was
originally framed by the WASHINGTON
Direct Primary League, and emascu
lated in a republican legislature. With
the choice OF United States senators
now in the hands OF the people, the
prospects for such Law are not SO
dim.
