Murfin,s Reclamation Accented.

Governor Osborn formally accepted
the resignation of Judge James b.
Muffin from the bench of the third jul
dicial circuit, in a letter received by
Judge Muffin.
1T is not pleasure to accept your
resignation" the governor wrote.
THE state will regret to lose your
valuable services. You have made an
excellent record as circuit Judge"
The appointment by Governor Os-
born Of Philip T. Van Zile to the cir
cult bench to succeed James o. Murfin
was received. Judge Van Zile was
regularly elected to the office, but
would not have taken Office until Jan
uary had 1t not been for the resigna-
ton Of Judge Muffin. Assistant Prose-
cutor Aldrich will fill the duties of the
prosecuting attorneys Office until a
successor Is selected by the circuit
Judges.

Denies Raise for OFFICIALS.

Attorney General Kuhn In an opin-
ion rendered blasted the hopes OF GER
tain township officials and county
school commissioners, who expected
to tilt their salaries as a result of a
law passed at the last session of the
legislature.
There Is a provision in the act that
salaries Of these officials may be in
creased, in case the people approve,
but Kuhn says that there is nothing
in the bill which provides for the sub
riission Of the questions, and there
forc II is of little value.
In another opinion the attorney
general holds that school commission
ers who assumed Office July 1 cannot
secure increases In salaries under the
new graded salary law, based on the
number of schools in the counties. The
law makes 1t impossible for an cleo
tive or appointive officer to receive a
decrease or increase of salary during
his tenure of office, and the new law
did not take effect until August 2.

NAMES NEW JAIL
BOARD MEMBER
GOVERNOR APPOINTS C. !. WEB.
sTER OF DETROIT TO sUc-
CEED J. s. HAGGERTY.
NO CHARGES ARE MADE
Deposed Man Was Appointed by For
mer Governor Warner to Fill the
Unexpired Term of the Late
Thomas Navin.

Lansing.-Formal notice was sent
out from the executive Office at Ian
sing to the effect that Governor Os-
born had appointed Clyde l. Webster,
an attorney of Detroit, as a member of
the board of control of Jackson prison
to succeed John S. Haggerty.
No charges were made against Hag-
gerty. who was named as a recess ap-
pointment by Governor Warner to sue
ceew the late Thomas Navin, whose
term would not have expired until
1913. Under the law 1t seems to be
explicit that a recess appointment ex-
pires at the conclusion of the next
subsequent session Of the legislature.
The attorney general advised the gov
ernor that he could name successor
to Haggerty, and the chief executive
did so.
The same procedure was followed
when the governor named a successor
to E. A. Phillips Of Fenton as q mem
Der of the board of control of the Ionia
will be asked to pass on the COVER
nOr's action.
Mr.. Haggerty declared that he would
fight the thing out until 1t is decided.
Just what action will be taken
will depend upon the advice Of my at
torney," said Mr.. Haggerty. IF the
governor does not deem me fit to be a
member Of the board let him file
charges against me, but in the mean
time I shall continue to act, and II
any attempt is made to bar me from
the meetings I will be prepared"
AS a matter Of fact, the governor
makes no charges. but simply stands
on the proposition that he is advised
that under the law he has a right to
name Haggerty's successor, which is
the question the court will be asked
to decide.

Would Repeal Inheritance Tax.

Suggestions that the inheritance
tax as II exists In Michigan
be repealed, that probate judges be re-
CURED to publish every year a report
OF their work in regard to juvenile
cases, accounting for their work in a
general way, but going into the details
of individual cases, and that a hus-
bands interest in q wife's estate on
her death be made the same as her
interest in his estate in similar cir.
cumstances, were made by Judge Da.
vid Anderson, president of the Michi.
gan Probate Judges association, in
his annual address to the organiza.
ton.
The suggestions were made by the
president as an individual to be con.
sidered by the association and taken
up by the committee on legislation II
1t should see fit. The remainder OF
the session was occupied by q report
OF the committee on what had been
accomplished In changing the law at
the last session OF legislature, and
a report on the various supreme court
decisions relating to the work OF the
probate courts. The most important
Of these is that denying the right OF
appeal In juvenile cases from the pro-
bate court to the circuit court.
The report of the secretary -treasur.
er by Judge Montgomery Webster was
given; Judge George p. Hopkins re-
ported that the committee on blanks
had made on changes during the past
year; Judge Fred II. Stone reported
the decisions, and the report on uni
formity Of practice was given by
Judge Matthew Bush.

Has SaIutary Effect.

Insurance Commissioner c. A. Pal
mer states that reports of the indus
trial insurance companies show that
the recent investigation and stir-up Of
these companies has had very sal
utary effect, and that most Of them
are complying In every way with the
requirements of the investigating
committeeman relative to changes in
their method Of doing business. A
letter received from the general man
agen Of the General Accident Company
of Scotland announces that, despite
earlier threats of an attack on the
committee, this company has decided
to follow out the recommendations Of
the committee in every respect.
The commissioner says: "If these
companies follow out their agreement
and make the restitution to policy
holders which we demanded, pre-
sumo that will be the end of the mat
ter, but all the recommendations must
be complied with"

Fair Visitors to Get Pure Food.

State Food Commissioner Dame an
nounced that he has sent three inspec-
tors to the West Michigan fair at
Grand Rapids to inspect the restaur-
ants and other lunch counters on the
grounds and to see to It that vendors
are providing clean, pure food for the
people, and another squad of inspec-
tors will perform similar service at
the state fair In Detroit next week.
1--WE have received complaints that
doctored food is offered by some
greedy statesmen at these fairs and
we propose to put stop to the prac-
tice," said Commissioner Dame.
There Is no reason why these lunch
men should sell poor foodstuffs and
several fairs will be watched this

will eventually become prepared Is
larger than the class usually making

Saginaw.-Attorneys for Byron j.

In forming their defense in the suit

Mr.. Coryell was president Of the

heavily interested in the Rock Lake
Mining company during its develop
ment stage. It Is said that heavy
assessments were made on the stock,
which froze out Mr.. Coryell. He gave

of Mark Moore to resist the at
fractions of f1fteen-year-old Cassie
Broderick may result in sending that
young man to prison, as he was taken
into custody by the sheriff charged
with violating the provisions of his
probation. Moore, who is twenty
eight, is the young farm hand who
eloped to Detroit with Cassie Broder-
lex, the daughter of his employer,
and was captured in Windsor when
he applied for marriage license.
Sunday Moore went to the Frederick
farm, thereby violating one of the
provisions of his parole. He claims
that he went to the farm to secure
some money which was due him for

Port Huron. - Because William,
seven weeks old, son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. William II. Marleton, cried too
much, the father put a pillow over
the child's face to stop him. He
claims he left the pillow there but a
few moments, but at any rate when
the parents looked at their babe a
few minutes later it was dead. Mar
Teton hurriedly called up Coroner
Falk and asked him to come and
bring a doctor. He was so excited
that for long time he was unable to
tell the coroner where to come and
what his name was, but finally man
aged to calm down enough to talk.
An inquest was held and the coroner's
jury returned a verdict to the effect
that the child came to its death by
suffocation and strangulation. AS a
result the fathers arrest has been or
dered by the prosecuting attorney and
1t is likely that he will be held on a
charge of manslaughter.
