GOVERNOR OSBORN.

Says the Kalamazoo Telegraph
Press:
Governor Osborn's visit TO Kalama-
ZOO Tuesday and Wednesday, gave
the people of Kalamazoo an opportun-
ity to see what a forcible, broad gaug-
ed, fair minded and patriotic governor
they have. His candid and yet earn
est speech must have Impressed all,
especially those who have had a wrong
impression of him. with his honesty
OF purpose and his high regard for a
square deal and justice to all.
Governor Osborn has been misrep-
resented by many people who have a
deep-laid purpose in so doing, and by
some newspapers inspired by un-
knowns. behind the scene, to belittle
the chief executive of the state.
The governor was deeply grateful
for the compliment paid him in the
large turnout of members of all par
ties at the reception and banquet Tues
day night.
II is safe to say that his excellency
made a favorable impression and
wholly disarmed those who have hith-
erto been disposed to sneer. The mag
netism of the man, his scholarly ad-
dress, his generosity to those who dis
agree with him, and his evident sin
cerity, all impressed itself on his hear
ers.
Michigan ought to be, and is, proud
Of such an executive. In the midst of
the galaxy of chief executives who
were the guests of Kalamazoo We'd
nesday, it can be truly said Gov
Osborn is the peer Of them all.

no legal connection with the commit

way secured confidential information
concerning the steel trust, obviously
very useful to them in their operations

AN INTERESTING SITUATION.

a most interesting and possibly per
picking situation for the Democrats
has arisen as a result Of the charges
made by Henry B. Martin. secretary Of
the Antitrust league that Represen-
tative Littleton, Democratic member of
the steel inquiry committee, had been
guilty Of improper relations with GER
tain Wall street magnates during the
course Of the inquiry, that he had "co-
operated and conspired with heads Of
the trust" 20 prevent continuance OF
the steel investigation. Llttleton. i'm

truths was introduced in Topeka by
Rev. Robert Gordon. of the First Bap-
tist church, last Sunday when he an
nounced that the moving pictures
would play an important part in the
church services in December.
Many of the Topeka ministers have
now taken up the moving picture idea
and they will be shown I'm a number OF

nectlon with the regular Sunday night
services.

lures for the next five weeks in the
Sunday night services" said the Rev.
Mr.. Gordon. "The story of the life
of Moses will be illustrated by richly
colored moving pictures which were
produced under the direction of DR..
Madison c. Peters"
The titles of the evening addresses
which will be illustrated by the pic
lures will be as follows: "The Child
hood of Moses" Moses Great Deci-
sion" "Moscs and Pharaoh" "The
pillar of Cloud" and "Sinai to Nebo"

Of profanity.
Lane got into a rumpus in the En-
core saloon and had words with Mike
Patton, the barkeep, whom he accuses
of starting the trouble by calling him
an indecent name.
Patton admitted having sold Lane a
drink, though the latter's name is on
the tabU list, he having been twice
convicted of drunkenness within the
past two years.
Lane states that he also bought a
drink from Joe Silva, who runs the
Pantheon saloon, though the latter
says that he only did so on Lanes
telling him that his name had been
taken off the list.
Lane told a Star man this morning
that his name had been taken off
the prohibited list couple of months
ago and that he had bought drinks
recently in a number of places, in
Guiding Dick Sullivan's.
This doesn't excuse the saloonkeep-
ers, however for having served Lane
with booze, and the matter will be
taken up by License Inspector Fen
nell.
