PRES ELECT SON says
he will call an extra session of
congress not later than April 10.
The object of the special session
will be for a general revision of
the tariff, which revision will
probably follow the general lines
laid down in the Underwood
measures, which were vetoed by
President Taft. While many
contend that the Underwood
bills did not go far enough in
a downward direction, it is
expected that the new president
in accordance with his campaign
speeches, will be on the side OF
moderate revision.

There is a curious history regarding
an unfinished church which stands at
Hassall, near Sandbach, England.
former resident at the local hall, a
Mr.. Lowndes, painfully conscious or
the lack of provision for the spiritual
wants of the people in the neighbor-
hood determined to build church at
his own expense. After carefully
choosing a site, he gave instructions
for the erection of a structure in the
modern style capable of seating 400
or 500 persons. Work on 1t was begun
In the summer of 1885, and was push
ed on steadily till the day on which
Queen Victoria was crowned, by which
time the building was well advanced.
The crypts, about ten In number, had
been put in, the walls and roofs were
complete, and the scantlings for the
floor were fixed. Indeed, partly In
consequence of the national rejoicings,
and partly to celebrate the progress
which had been made, the building
was smothered in flags and decora-
tions. and was the center of the local
festivities. Next day Mr.. Lowndes
was seized with an illness which quick
ly proved fatal, and with his passing
all work on the church ceased. Though
the building could have been finished
at comparatively small cost, it was
abandoned; and 1t has not been used
since, except by tourists, whose names

Practically complete returns
from all the counties of the state
indicate that the suffrage amend
ment has been defeated by few
hundred votes. That this is an
honest defeat no sane person
can believe. There was every
opportunity for crooked work
and can anybody doubt that the
opportunity was used? A ques-
ton that involved only the SIM
ple matter of counting the Yes
and No votes, matter Of great
err Importance to the people OF
the state of Michigan than any
that has demanded their suffrage
since the close of the civil war,
ought not to have remained IN
doubt for three weeks after the
election, and that the missing
returns should have been from
precincts where the counting
boards were openly and motor
iously opposed to the proposed
amendment shows very plainly
that the returns were held back
for some purpose, and that pur-
pose could only have been a
fraudulent one. The various

reason why the result should not
have been known with absolute
certainty within twenty-fo
hours thereafter. With the daily
press of the state using every
means available to obtain the cor
rect figures there can be but two
reasons for all this unnecessary
suspense and delay ,either the
incompetency of the canvassing
boards or deliberate intention
to doctor the returns in favor of
the -suffragists, otherwise
the saloonists of the larger cities
and the liquor interests both in
side and outside the state.
Nearly $4,000 votes are report
ed against the amendment in the
county of Wayne, but nobody
could ascertain how the vote
stood until it was known by the
ants how many votes were need

in its defeat.

vote against the measure more
