SIX VOTES ENOUGH
John N. Durham Nominated for c. c.
COm'r Without His knowledge

Politics offers the most varied and
peculiar situations of any phase of
American Life. No one has every been
able to Predict the outcome with any
degree OF certainty and 20 the many
whiins that have Always been present,
the primaries have added many more.
AS the returns of the last primaries
came III, the surprises were so many that
the older politicians, who have weather
ed many a political storm, were COM
pletely stumped and the best they could
do was to scratch heads and grunt,
"Well I'll" and then their voices fell.
The most sensational within of the last
election in Gratiot county has turned
out 10 be not the mail order campaign
of the republican congressional nominee
but the vote on Circuit Court Commiss-
Toner. Circuit Court Commissioner
John d. Spinney was renominated by
the handsome vote of over l,400 and
John Nj. Durham was nominated as
running mate for the Office by vote
that would take a miscroscope TO find
1t. Mr.. Durham received a total of 6
votes. Still he is as much entitled to
run on the Republican ticket as Mr.
Spinney. Both were legally nominal ed
and both are regular republican nom-
inees
The facts arc these Circuit Court
Commissioner Spinney was the only re-
publican attorney to file his petition
and so his name was placed on the
ti3ket for the office with a blank lire
below as there are two circuit court
commissioners to be elected. Six people
wrote Attorney Dunham's name on the
blank line and cast their ballot for him
Attorney o q, Tuttie ran a close race
receiving four votes, willie Attorneys
Salter ana Krees were hot on the trail
with three and two votes respectively.
Thus the within of the primaries heaped
unsought for honors on the head of
Gratiot county's youngest attorney and
| the name of John NJ Dun ham will be
placed upon the ballots in November

In an editorial commenting on the
primary election of last Tuesday the
Clare Sentinel said in part: Again,
the people are much too prone to be
caught by some campaign cry that a
little reflection should show has no
merit. We admit that the masses,
like individuals, are educated by their
mistakes, but these masses must rea-
lie that these mistakes lay them open
10 criticism by the opponents of pri-
mary laws. The cost of living Is very
high and anyway that promises to
lessen this cost would naturally APP
peal to people; but man does not
need the intellect of Daniel Webster
to understand that the passage of a
pure fabric and leather bill will NOT
very materially reduce the cost OF
butter and eggs. Similar bills have
been in Congress for years and their
passage does not depend on any one
man
