Estate Must Pay Lawyers Fees.

Corunna, March 24-The ruling
OF Probate Judge Bush in tle matter
of allowing the, attorneys fees out of
the estate of the late Bridget Quinn
Of Owosso, Is upheld by Judge Col.
lingwood of Lansing who heard ths
appeal case in the circuit courl
Judge Collingwoods decision w2S
announced Monday morning.
1t confirms Judge Bush's decision
in that phase of the Quinn will con
test, in which the proponents object,
ed to having the fees paid from ths
estate. Judge Bush ruled that 8c-
cording to custom and law, the e5~
tate must pay these fees. The total
amount Of fees thus far is $4,000.
Since the appeal was taken, TINS
circuit court has reversed the de-
cision of the probate court in the
tae matter of breaking the VIII.
ordering the proportionate distribp-
ton of the estate among the Legal
heirs, rather than among thuss

Seven Tickets to be Voted.

At the election April z, the voter will
have seven separate ballots to mark.
The state ticket, the city ticket, and
FIVE constitutional amendments.
Each amendment to the constitution
submitted to the voters of Michigan at
the April election, must be printed on
separate ballots, according to an opin-
ion rendered by Assistant Attorney
General, T. A. Lawler. Inasmuch as
the people will vote on equal suffrage,
initiative on constitutional amend.
ments, initiative on statutes, referen-
dunn, firemans pension, and the recall,
this will mean that each voter will
have-to mark Eve separate ballots on
constitutional amendments.
Ii the voter does not understand an
amendment the best thing is to vote
No and that settles the matter and pre-.
vents anything getting through by de-
fault There Is at least no excuse for
not understanding the suffrage ques-
tion as It has surely been thoroughly
discussed.
For the fret time in years the Re-
publican ticket will not have first place
on the ballot, the Progressive being
fret, Republican second and Democrat
third.

Sugar Beet Acreage.

While the rather poor results obtain.
ed from the growing of sugar beets dur.
ing the past two season has had the
effect Of discouraging some growers,
still the sugar factories about the state
report that acreage is being received
daily and that sufficient amount will
be secured to assure the running of all
the plants. With the uncertainty as to
tariff action the officers of the factories
are not seeking as large an acreage as
in the past but will be content with
enough to make short campaign. The
Lansing branch of the Owosso Sugar
Co., already has enough contracts to
ensure all the beets desired, while the
Owosso plant could possibly use two
thousand more acres. With contracts
coming in daily.this amount will doubt
less be received before seeding time

What Did He Do With lt2

The fact that the records in local
freight offices showed that between
June 1 and December 5, 1912, Will
liam Fredericks received shipments,
labelled "beer," and having a gross
weight of some $500 pounds, and
that the Wells Fargo & Co. express
records showed he had received six
barrels OF beer during that time, led
the county officers to believe that
Fredericks was selling liquor at his
place, 914 West Main street. This
was the testimony given in Fred
erick's examination on the charge of
violating the local option law, in the
municipal court Wednesday morning
Deputy Sheriff Sproule told of ex-
amining the railroad records, with
Urdersheriff Griffin and of later,
with Deputy Milton Houghton, secur-
ing a search and seizure warrant,
that they might search for evidence
IN Frederick's building. Both admit
ted they found nothing damaging in
they way of liquor, however. The
case was then adjourned until April
9.
1t became known Wednesday that
Fredericks intends to leave Owosso.
He has closed up his restaurant and
soft drink establishment and is ad-
vcrtising his home on Robbins street
for sale. 1t Is understood that he ex-
poets to move to Pontiac where his
daughter, Mrs. Charles Setback, re-
sides with her family
