REPUBLICAN BANQUET
Continued from page one


barn without a roof because it had
nothing in it; Speaker Gilbert A.
Currie took the platform saying that
while the introduction did not exact
ly suit him he thought it sufficient.
If the POSTMASTER was familiar with
any foolish legislation it must have
been in the senate. The only bill he
knew of that might be SO classes was
one for the protection of northern
hare But as Senator Smith had been
so busy in the investigation of the
Pere Marquette r. K. he probably
had not been in Lansing enough to
know what had been done. The Pere
Marquette had bonded Indebtedness
of 100000 on physical valuation of
$4,000 and that was enough to keep
most any man busy. Personally he
would like to say many compliment
airy things Of the POSTMASTER and
local men, but he had been introduced
as man OF such honest convictions
and positive beliefs he could not now
say anything about them. OF re-
united Republican party the speaker
said: The men of the Michigan legis-
lature regardless OF party are con-
scientiously striving TO give the peo-
pie the legislation they desire. A
healthful minority exists but they are
not striving TO rule. In our national
Congress the third party division en-
deavored to rule by welding the bal
ance OF power and their entire in
fiuence tended TO disruption. Now
we have time to reflect on the result
while 1.-The Democrats are in power,
and ! hope this reflection will make
clear 10 you that we can maintain
control for the next twenty years If
we stand together. Prehxed to the
name Republican are not necessary

Leans tonight for the Republican
party has always. now and always
will be progressive. We have had
some trouble, considerable OF it, some
very seriously and some situations
very grave: and the reason for it was
because the Republican leaders for
got that the masses, the majority
must be satisfied The great cause
Of the dissatisfaction was the method
Of the selection of delegates which
gave small states equal voice with
the large states and the southern
states even greater delegations than
strong Republican northern states,
and | am proud of the manhood of
America that had the courage to re-
gister their disapproval at the ballot
| box The system was wrong and the
Republican leaders are today pledged
to change that system At the re-
cent splendid convention at Lansing
the best ticket ever placed in the
| field was nominated, the most pro-
gressive platform was adopted and
the opportunity is open for the rank
and file who bolted the party last
| fall to return, and believe they will
do so. They need not come in sack
cloth and ashes but as citizens Justly
proud of their power and achieve
| ments. The Republican party has
always been the great party OF hu
man rights and popular government
and stands more strongly for these
| principles today than before that en-
tircly personal combat between Mr..
Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt There has
been no party issue between the Re-
publicans and Progrcssives, and in
dividual personality aside there is no
| division between them.

Toastmaster Smith rendered Hon.
w. Frank Jones of the Upper Pen
insula a very interesting introduction
suggesting in closing that he might
be a relative to Jesse" Mr. James
Immediately assured him, however,
that If he were the POSTMASTER he
would be unable to introduce the
next speaker, and proceeded to roast
Mr.. Smith for his supposed connec-
ton with the Mormon prophet On
the history Of the Republican party
Mr.. James said that the history Of
the party for the past fifty years was
the history of Michigan and OF the
nation. That we should forget the
trouble which had made a division
and the history of the party would be
the history OF the nation for the next
fifty years. That the dissension was
produced by the rank and file of the
party getting sore at their leaders
because they had run things with too
high hand and now that the leaders
saw their mistake and were anxious
10 fulfill the will Of the people they
should close ranks and go on to
greater victories. The Republican
party had always been truly progress
sive as the speech of Representative
Dodds had already shown and the
people would find that the Republican
party were more anxious today than
any other 10 give them what they
desire on woman suffrage, the initia-
tive, referendum and recall and a
truly representative government.

PRISONER is GROWING
h WEAKER EVERY DAY
Foreigner Will Die in Jail
Here unless Given His
Liberty Soon.

Joseph ZaIura, a Pole, serving
time in the county all, is in very
bad physical condition, resulting
from worry and loss of appetite.
Unless given his freedom soon, he
is very likely to die in prison. The
fellow is about 10 years of age and
has a wife in the old country. lie
has not been in this country very
long. Five days after he had come
to a mining settlement in this sec
ton, he was arrested February It
last and sent to Jail for six months
for carrying a revolver in violation
OF law. HIe has more than two
months to serve and it is the opinion
of those familiar with the case that
IL kept there he will not live out
the term.
There is good reason to believe
that he is the victim of a plot. a
custom prevails for foreigners 10
leave their money with their board
ing house keepers. 1t is said that
he did this and just after he mad
asked for his money, which was re-
fused him, a plot was formed against
him, in which some one slipped re-
volver in his pocket and then had
him arrested for carrying the gun.
Prominent residents of the city
have written to the governor in the
fellows behalf and it is hoped that
pardon will issue for him in the
next few days.
The man is respondent and Scent
ingly without hope. tHe worries be
cause he is unable to send money to
his wife and the daintiest morsels
prepared by the sheriff's wife espe-
ciaIly for the prisoner do not appeal
to him. He is rapidly dwindlinf
away to nothing.
