That State Auditor JOrgensOn was
justified in questioning the payment
of certain bills filed with him Is set
forth in an extract from the supreme
court opinion in the tax commissioner
case which is as follows:
1T is contested by the State Audi.
tor because, as a public official. it is
his sworn duty to rigidly and fear
lessly perform the duties of his Of
flee and to only audit those accounts
for which, in his opinion, valid ap-
roprjations have been MADE. it is
his duty to exercise his sound discre-
ton and his best judgment and 10 re-
fuse to audit accounts whenever he
.rtertains any reasonable doubt of
their validity . Is is in the courts
alone, that matters such as these can
be finally and definitely settled. Ours
IS a government by law, and by law
alone.

SPECIAL VILLAGE
ELECTION JULY I

At meeting Of the village council,
held Monday evening, it was decided to
re-submit to the electors of the village
the question of bonding for $1,000 for
paving.
On account of the mistake of registra-
ton day last spring, being held two
weeks before election, this village will
be compelled to hold special election
to vote again on the paving proposition.
The law as changed concerned cities
and townships only, villages were not
included, this is how the mistake hap
pened to be made, in good faith and
not Intentionally. However the bonds
have been disposed of to Bumpus & Co.,
of Detroit, who stand ready to fulfill
their agreement as soon as the election
is held, thus making the proceedings
legal, and in view of the fact that the
proposion was carried with a vote of 173
before, with only II against, it is safe
to prophesy that it will carry again,
with an increased majority. For the
good and welfare Of our village we hope
so. At least, let us one and all pull to-
gether and vote yes this time and make
it unanimous as it should be.
Registration day will be Saturday,
July 5th, and election day, Monday,
July 7th. Be sure and register and then
on Monday, July 7th, vote for better
things for your home town, Clio.

Has Mania to Whip Women

Because his wife insisted on knowing
where he was going, and who was going
with him, when he prepared to take a
drive with his horse and buggy last Fri
day evening, Ross Clark, a new groom
for the second time, and very recent too,
proceeded to strike his wife and threw
her forcibly upon the ground, but for
the appearance of others on the scene
matters might have been worse. AS it
was, Mrs. Clark, who has been re-
spected and efficient teacher in this
county for some years, proceeded to
defend herself and from the looks of
husbands face he got small portion of
what he should have had in large
quantity.
Nevertheless he was arrested, and
languished in the the county Jail at
Flint about four days. Wednesday mat
ters were aired in Justice Torrey's s
court, and Clark was fined $500 and
costs. Six witnesses were called by
Clark, but the testimony of Mrs. Clark
outweighed all as it was proven she
acted only in self defense and the right.
Clark was recently divorced from his
first, on account of his mania for wife
beating.

Farmers Worried

The wool growers about Shiawassee
county which is one sf the largest wool
producing counties in the state, are
worrying over the possible effects of the
tariff bill which is now pending in the
senate and which puts wool on the free
list. They fear that the bill means a
heavy financial loss to them.
The effect of placing wool on the free
list would be to lower the price of it.
The market has already begun to drop,
and the farmers hereabouts who have
been holding their wool for higher
prices, stand TO lose heavily. While the
price has not dropped very much as yet,
they fear that it will go much lower.
Whether the effect of taking the duty
from wool would reduce the amount of
wool grown here, is hard to predict,
but it is reasonable to believe that it
would.

That room to brighten. beautify:
That loved ones heart to cheer.

She kissed my snow-white face
She thought me fairest one! of all
So large and full of grace;
But one sad morn woke to find

whispered to my friends for help
And found they all had fled.
And so, no longer beautiful,

And then it was | was saw the tear.
And heard her softly say
Who knows but to some fairer land
Their spirits may have fled?
Somewhere they too may live again
Their souls may not be dead"

The End Of The World

The sunset doubling sank to death;
The amarthine stars lost faith,
And heaven withered like SCROLL
The moving water ceased to roll
The flood and torrent fount were dried;
The lightning in its place of pride
By its own hand of hate was slain.
The hills were toppled to the plain;
The winds were scattered. and the air
Clothed on with shadow and despair.
Then 10. the Last Man in the dark.
Kissing the Last Maid woke the lark;
The bird flew up with morning cries.
And as of old Dawn climbed the skies!
