PURE GOLD

Did you know that a 20-year
endowment policy with the Ore
gon life is pure gold? Did you
know that a 20-year endowment
policy with the Oregon Life gives
you a safe place to deposit money,
paws your wife and babies the
amount you carry in event of
your death, or if you live pays
the amount to you at the end of
20 years? Unless you have the
hooks in the "old man" who car
ries the scythe, it would be well
to look into this matter deeper.

THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1911.

Attorney General Kuhn in an opin-
ion has put crimp in the plans of
some of the legislators to establish by
statute new rates of tuition for the
University Of Michigan and the Mich
igan Agricultural college. In response
to a request from superintendent OF
Public Instruction L. L. Wright, the
attorney general points to the consti-
tutional provision comforting on the
board Of regents the power to control
the affairs OF the university and adds
that in view of the provisions matters
of tuition undoubtedly are vested in
the board. 1t is understood that a
similar provision grants equal powers
to the board Of agriculture as re-
CARDS the agricultural college and
in consequence the legislature
cannot increase the fee for non-resi-
dent students. Two bills are in the
house to accomplish this purpose aEa q
similar bill has been prepared FOR the
senate.

A CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT.

After making general inquiry To as
certain public sentiment in the mat
ter, and finding that everywhere the
suggestion met with ready approval,
Senator James, of Hancock, decided to
present TO the legislature a corrupt
practices act having as its aim the dis
couragement by strong penalties of
corrupt practices in elections. He has
lately had the bin in preparation and
it is said to be already pretty well out
lined. The object of the bill, as ex-
pressed in it's title. is as follows:
a bill to limit candidates election
expenses; to define, prevent and pun
ish corrupt and Illegal practices in
nominations and elections; TO secure
and protect the purity of the ballot; to
provide for furnishing information to
the electors, and to provide for the
manner of conducting contests for
nominations and election in certain
cases."
The act is copied largely after the
oregon laws. with certain modifca-
lions which will make it applicable to
this state. Section one provides that
no sums Of money shall be paid, and
no expenses authorized or incurred by
or on behalf of any candidate to be
paid by him in his campaign for NOM
ination to any public office or posi-
ton in this state, in excess Of Is per
cent Of one years compensation or
salary of the office for which he is a
candidate. Provided, that no candidate
shall be restricted to less than 800 in
his camapign for such nomination. No
sums shall be paid and no expenses
or incurred, contrary to the
provisions Of the act for or on behalf
Of any candidate for nomination. For
the purpose Of the law the contribu-
ton. expenditure, or liability of de-
scendant, brother, sister, uncle, aunt,
nephew, niece, wife, partner, employ
err employe, or fellow officials or fell
Of a corporation shall be
deemed to be that of a candidate him
self.
1t is provided further that after a
candidate has received a nomination
Tor any office under the provisions of
The act no sum Of money in excess
IF 10 per cent of one years salary of
The office be expended by or on be-
lalf Of him in his campaign for cleo
ion.
The Michigan statutes are deficient !
n their failure to embody such an
lct as Senator James has in mind and
nay properly be greatly stinened in

ould concern itself more prohtably
