Tne question of Gov. Osborn's can

tion and it would not be at all sur
prising&f the Tom, Dick and Harry
spectators know just about as much
about it as the governor himself. He
has simply given the public to un-
derstand, so far, that he was not a

not attempt to escape.
There are a number OF Republican
candidates for governor who are an
nouncedly chasing the nomination and
who ardently hope TO run fast enough
to catch II.
Secretary of State Frederick G.

Milo ID. Campbell has recently been
making goo-goo eyes at the RepuG-

is not yet evident that he has been
rewarded with pleasant look. But
then Milo is some man in Michigan.
He has long been conspicuous fig-
ure In state Republican politics but
never pulled any very fat chestnuts
out Of the fire. He was formerly pri.
vate secretary to Gov. Rich, and is
now a deputy United States marshal.
His home is in Coldwater, and he is a
farmer, a sure-enough farmer tbs said,

be posing as farmer candidate.

the factory, shortly after o'clock,
Monday Afternoon She was at her

that the upper part OF the building
was on fire. She didn't get hysterical
and scream for help, simply calmly
going to the telephone and calling the
fire department. Her GOODNESS prSo-
ably saved the factory from total
destruction, for the blaze was roaring
fiercely when the firemen arrived
They confined the fire to a small por-
tion of the building and only $3.50
damage was done. The ignition OF
naphtha. used in the manufacture OF
the companys goods, was the cause

MATTER UP TO SHERIFF
Effort VIII Be Made 70 Have
Official Force Roadhouse
To Obey Law

Residents of Highland Park are
aroused by the fact that the saloon
OF &. ID. Ardussi, Woodward-ave., and
the mile-rd., is open on Sundays.
Ardussis roadhouse, the Garibaldi, is
just l5 feet outside the northern
boundary line of Highland Park, but
the residents OF the village take the
stand that the operation OF a saloon
IN that locality on Sunday, is just as
bad as if the saloon were actually in
the village. Since John l.. Austin
was elected president of the village
two weeks ago, notice has been
served on several parties In Highland
Park, who We're known to be selling
liquor illegally, that the practice must
stop. There are no saloons in High
land Park, and one or two blind
pigs" were put out of business by the
action OF the new administration.
The northern boundary line of High
land Park is the center line OF the
Six-mile-rd., and Ardussi's saloon is
on the northeastern corner OF the
road. For all purposes OF the law, the
roadhouse is in Greenfield township,
but for all practical purposes and so
far as moral effect Is concerned, the
roadhouse might as we'll be inside the
village. Ii is at the end of the city
street car line and a natural stopping
place for many people who go TO
Palmer park or the suburbs for sun
day ride or stroll.
Sunday was great day N the
Garibaldi Seven automobiles were
drawn up in front OF the place at one
time in the afternoon. Within The
place a bartender, sleeves rolled up,
was endeavoring frantically to keep
up with the demand for beer anu
whisky at the bar. while mixing cock
tails and fancy drinks for those at
tables in the cafe at the rear. Afoot
and by street car came some OF the
patrons of the place. In due time, the
automobiles would depart, others
would arrive and stop long enough
for the parties to get a drink, and
then drive on. All seemed TO under
stand the place; all seemed delighted
at knowing OF an oasis SO convent
emily situated 10 Detroit, where they
might satisfy their thirst on the Sab
bath. The cash register In the Carl
baldi gave evidence OF the attractive
force of a ride and a drink for some
people.
Scores of Detroiters. finding 1t diff
ficult to obtain liquid refreshments
in the city, visit the place Sundays.
