THE SPECIAL SESSION.

Governor Osborn has called special
session of the Legislature tor February
20 for the purpose OF passing a presi-
Dental primary law On its face the
call is made to show that it has been
issued because Of great popular de.
mand but as a matter OF fact, known
to all who have given Michigan politi-
cal events any attention during the
past few weeks. IL has been called be-
cause Governor Osborn has entered
heart and soul into the movement for
Roosevelt and he figures that there is "A
better show for Roosevelt getting the
Michigan delegation il presidential
primary is put over than without IL.
Does anyone think for one brief mo.
ment that IL conditions were reversed
II the conditions as they exist at pre-
sent indicated delegation emanating
from the Bay City convention favor

born would have seen sufficient cause
to convene the legislature in special
session. Does anyone think soY
We'll. we don't blame the Governor.
He's playing the political game. II he

pie believe that away down in the re-
cesses of his heart so great pity wells

mon people OF their will. why. be put

are that he will, ano the presidential

A POLITICIANS PANIC.

The whole Roosevelt movement Is an
obvious attempt to use the personal
popularity Of one man 10 save the re-
publican party from the sins commit
ted by it's own representatives Ia con.
gress sine committed in spite Of the
plain wording OF the republican plat
form OF 1908 and in spite OF protests
and urgent recommendations from the
republican president elected on that
platform. IL was the action of the re-
publican representatives in the tariff
session OF 1909 that made possible the
republican defeat OF 1910. and made
possible this political panic among tho
republicans in 1919. Where now stand

THE PRINCIPLES" OF ROOSE
WELT AND TAFT.

The following from the Detroit Sat
urdsy Night hits the nail exactly on
the head.
The only honest way TO find out
where the republicans OF Michigan
stand as between the principles OF
Roosevelt and the principles OF Taft
or Cummins or LaFollette is to vote at
the polls. City Clerk Nichols.
1t would also be OF great value 10
the republicans OF Michigan before
voting TO have from Mr.. Nichols. or
some other well-informed person, a
brief statement of the difference be.
tween the principles of Roosevelt and
Taft We admit that it is proper
task for public journal like Saturday
Night. but we are bound to confess
that it is altogether beyond our capa-
city for discernment

PROMOTERS ARRESTED

Motley Murcury: The golden dream
of the people to the north and east Of
us that they were to have railroad
in the near future received serious
jolt when the promoters of the North
and South railroad were arrested this
week and lodged in the Hennepin coun-
ty Jail. The proposition of building a
railroad from the gulf to Winnipeg has
attracted considerable attention in this
section Of the country and some towns
have voted bonds for the purpose Of
assisting in the building of the road.
John M. Wiley, president and treasur.
er; Fred Breckley, secretary and chief
engineer, and A. L. Buell., an associate,
were arrested by the postoffice in
spectors charged with using the mail
for fraudulent purposes.
Whether the charges against the
promoters are real or just trumped up
will develop later from the published
news of the case we fail to see where
they have any real case against them.
