STATE POLITICS

About the most interesting item IN
state politics during the week was the
return Of Governor Osborn from his
Deerfoot lodge where ne was for =
month back resting and allowing his
broken tooi bones To thoroughly mend.
Governor Osborn, while not fully
recovered from the recent misfortune
that ne met with, was feeling quite
well and had hopes that his foot would
be wholly we'll in very short tlme'
When questioned about the report that
the nomination for governor was to be
sought for him by his friends he
replied that ne is not candidate ana
don want the Office Of governor nor
any other Office. This is the third or
fourth time that Governor Osborn has
made that statement but there seems
to be question raised as to its SINGER
ity. Those who are close to the Cover
nor state that there is no question but
that he will refuse TO be a candidate
for nomination.
The Michigan democrats are casting
about for a candidate for governor and
the search is interesting. Their last
effort was the announcement that
James Scully of Ionia, late member
of the railroad commission, would be u
candidate Mr.. scully, upon the oeca
sion of recent VISIT TO Lansing stated
that he has not given the matter
serious consideration, He added,
however, that the time seems "A good
one for democratic aspirants and he
may enter the list.
Considerable anxiety exists as to the
successor of Judge Angel OF the eastern
district Of Michigan. Judge Angel
resigned, the resignation to take effect
on June T. Two candidates were put
forward for the position, Judge Brooke
of Detroit and Arthur futile, attorney
for the western district futile is
backed by Senator Townsend while
Brooke has the backing of strong
wing of the Taft party in Detroit. The
matter remains unsettled and both
sides are insistent upon their candidate
being appointed,

Wireless Distress Signals.

IT will be practically impossible in
the future for wireless distress signals
to go unheard, as was the case at the
time Of the Titanic disaster. Steps
were taken at the recent Radio-T ele-
graphic conference in London to pre-
vent this. and rule has been laid
down calling for almost constant at
tendance on the wireless apparatus
aboard ships. On vessels Of the first
class the conference rule requires
permanent watch, which means that
two operators must be employed.
Ships Of the second class, which en-
ploy only one operator, must provide
a watcher for the wireless apparatus
during the first ten minutes Of each
Eour. This provision will allow the
regular operator to have his rest un-
broken while off duty, and will neces-
state the training CT some member or.
the crew to receive the distress signal
It will be his duty to listen during the
ten minutes beginning each hour.

Among the hats which women Of
any age, from twenty-five upward, may
wear with equal propriety, the ALL
feather hat stands unrivaled. Next
after it comes the turbans and small
hats made Of draped velvet and trim
med with rsatherbreasts, feather orna-
ments or wings, and in third place
stand the draped turbans of velvet
trimmed with other decorations than
feathers. There is strong demand
for winter flowers now, so that one
may choose between them and feath-
ers.
The all-feather turban is made of
small, highly lustrous feathers as a
rule, although the guinea hen feath-
ers are among other exceptions to
the rule. Iridescent feathers like
those from the peacock, pigeons and
turkeys, as well as many wild birds,
furnish great quantities of feathers
In which nature shows management
of color that man never hopes to
rival. These are chosen for the all
feather hats and for breasts, feather
ornaments and bands.

CORN CRIB BANK INSECURE
Fire Transforms 100 $40 Gold Pieces

Chicago. One hundred and fifty
bright and shining $40 gold pieces be-
longing to Thomas Ballard, owner OF
a farm at South Western avenue and
West 135th street, were quickly con-
verted into an irregular lump of metal
a few days ago.
Ballard had q mania for collecting
$40 gold pieces. He liked to have
them around so well that he got to-

them in a corner Of his corn crib. To
keep them from getting lonesome he
carelessly chucked in a matter OF $500

A short time ago he took load OF
hay and started for Blue Island. The

Ballard dozed peacefully on the top Of
the load. He was startled from his

a man running frantically after him

pulled the hay rack around at right

flames were eventually quelled and
as soon as the ruins were cool enough

Two or three crisped bills were

mass; $1,000 retained some semblance

Ballard mournfully surveyed what
was left OF q once beautiful pile Of
coin.

 Criticism is good for everybody. It is better to have unjust criticism than none.
 Precisely because the Judiciary has been placed upon a pseudo supernat- ural plane as beyond the comprehen- sion of ordinary mortals, it has laps ed into careless ways, and must now take all at once the burden of cor rection which has fallen upon other branches of the government in frag- mentary way.
 Nevertheless the Judiciary must not be judged by Archibald. Most judges are men of high ideals and personal probity. That occasional decisions reflect the social and economic views of the judges, rather than the social and economic views of the people is to be expected, considering that gov ernment had gradually fallen. into the hands of an oligarchy instead of from the constitutional source.

Atlantic City, N. J.. July s--Main- taining that the prohibition party is the original progressive party, a de- termined effort will be made by it's leaders to change the party name at the national convention, which opens here Wednesday. With the prospect of a new party under the Roosevelt leadership now practically assured, prohibition leaders here in advance of the convention insist that if any party is entitled to be named progressive, ; it is their party, which always has stood for advanced political princi- ples Though, the party to be formed next month in Chicago is being refer red to as the progressive party" the prohibitionists point to the fact that the organization is as yet unborn, and that the prohibitionists are entitled to the new name if they choose to take it.
 The movement to rename the party has been considered for some time, and at this convention delegates from all the states are coming prepared to take determined stand. The new York, Pennsylvania and Nebraska delegations are reported to be practi- cally solid in favor of a change of name.
