TOWNSEND AND
BURROWS TALK
Congressman Urges Adoption of Pro-
gressive Policies and Square Deal for
People-Senator Defends Tariff.

NASHVILLE, Mich, June 25.-Sena'
tor Burrows and Congressman Town
send were the principal speakers at a
banquet given here last night by the
Barry County Republican club. Rail
road Commissioner Glasgow, whose
home is here, and Grant Fellows. OF
Hudson, the latter candidate for at
torney-general. were the other speak
ers. Senator Burrows is in Cassopolis
today, where he addresses farmers nj
a picnic, and Mr.. Townsend delivers
the commencement address to inc
Union City high school graduating
class.
Mr.. Townsend said las might while
the Republican party has always been
committed to the principle OF protec.
'tion. the fundamental doctrine as laid
down by the founders OF the party was
that the amount of duty levied on a
particular article should not exceed
the difference between the cost of pro-
duction at home and the cost of pro-
duction in a foreign country.
He said In recent years a new
school OF economics has sprung up,
which stands for the highest possible
tariff regardless of whether II is need
ed to develop and sustain manufac-
turing industry. Then he continued:
I'VE have no right 10 legislate for
any set OF men. less than the whole
people When tariff bill is before
congress large interests affected by
tariffs are always represented at
Washington, while the great mass OF
consumers rarely indeed send delega-
tions to present their side OF the case
as adroitly and as well as the inter
ests. In the framing of tariff act
getsome strong men hit on few
schedules here and there and In the
end we get a new tariff act that has
nothing to do with the actual cost OF
production"
Mr.. Townsend said these are rea-
sons why he favored tariff commits
sion which could handle different
tariff schedules in a scientific way.

POLITICAL TURMOIL
REEVES IN ENGLAND
Truce Following Edwards Funeral
Over and Factions Are Again

LONDON, June l4.-The political

Edwards funeral has melted into the
thin air. says VIM. It. Stead, In a

utmost to induce the two parties 20

program and fight like the devil with
clean heart for the Tory side.
Lord Morleys verdict, pronounced
three weeks ago that there would DC
no common ground for a compromise,
has been justified by events. IL was
not even possible to get together an
unofficial meeting OF party representa-
tlves. SO 1t is understood. after the
necessary business OF supplies, the
budget, the new civil list and amend
ment OF the royal declaration has
been put through parliament, II will
rise till next November, whom a bat
tie royal will ensue, eliminating In
q deadlock between the two houses
and then an election In January.
Mr.. Roosevelt's city speech Is be-
ing utilized by the Tories as campaign
literature. proving that In the opinion
of the American ex-President the Lib
erals have made such mess OF things
In Egypt that every patriot should
vote for the Unionist candidate. The
Liberals, however, are notd isheart-
ened; neither are they disposed TO
abandon all attempt TO secure the con-
sent OF the governed In Egypt or In
Ireland and fall back on the Big Stick,
which Is only euphemism for the
club Of the savage.
Division Over Rooseveitism.
Americans at The Hague are much
interested In discussing the possible
effect OF Mr.. Roosevelt's outbursc
upon his third-term aspiration, and
opinions are divided. Some maintain
that the American masses are SO idol
atrously devoted TO Roosevelt that
they would not desert him even IL he
turned cannibal and dined off stewed
Spaniard. Others. while admitting his
popularity, believe that there are
limits which even Roosevelt must not
pass. And to dance fandangos on the
Sermon on the Mount and the Declar-
alton OF Independence, even as far
away as Egypt will not commend the
Colonel for a third term.
That he disdains all desire for re-
election .matters nothing. Didn't
Julius Caeser thrice refuse a kingly
crown? II is an interesting discus
sion.

possession of said property.
Fourth--The plaintiff is informed
and believes and therefore AYERS that
he has no adequate remedy at law
first, because said writ of replevin
cannot be lawfully served so long as
said defendants refuse to admit the
sheriff or his deputies to said dwell

them would be absolutely worthless
Fifth-And the plaintiff says that by
reason of the premises unless this
honorable court shall grant the relief
hereinafter prayed for. he will suffer
great, immediate, irreparable and per-
manent injury and will be utterly de-
prived of his property without remedy
therefor.

Bill In Equity.

A bill in equity was filed in the SUI
preme judicial court Thursday by Mel

ton and Carrie /. Weston. all of Au-
gusta, to regain possession of piano.
The allegations in the writ are as
follows:
First-On the ninth day of August
A. D., 1910. the plaintiff was the sole
and legal owner of certain Emerson
piano, and was and still is entitled to
the immediate possession of the same
as against the defendants and all other
persons whatsoever. which said piano
was then and there in the the dwelling
house occupied by the defendants in
said Augusta.
Second-That said defendants on
said day wrongfully and unlawfully
refused either to deliver up saic piano
to the plaintiff or to permit him to re-
cover possession of the same, though
thereto requested: whereupon the
plaintiff on said ninth day of August

required by law, and delivered the
same to a deputy of the sheriff within

of the said piano by virtue thereof. but

Washing the Hair
There Is a Right as Well as a Wrong
Way To Do It.

The important thing to observe in
washing the hair is to avoid using a
soap or shampoo containing an excess
of alkali. You must have some knowl-
edge of chemistry before you can tell
the difference between good soap and
harmful soap. The safest plan is to
clean your hair and scalp with Birfs
Head Wash, which is broadly guaran-
teed to be neutral and to have no
free alkali in it. Moreover. it is
mildly medicated with glycerin, sali-
cylic acid. white of eggs and cocoanut
Oil. Every one of these things are
helpful to the scalp and hair. and
by using Birts Head Wash frequent
ly, the loss Of hair is stopped. dan
druff disappears and itching ceases
All dirt, dust and disease germs are
cleared away. the pores leading to the
hair roots are opened up, and re-
newed life and vigor is given to the
hair. Try Birt's Head Wash and ex-
perience the supreme delight of q
perfectly clean scalp. Csc. and soc.
