rae POLITICAL, SITUATION.

The fOLlIlCALt ollOAllONs
Jack f. Cremer. former editor OF
the Marquette Chronicle and for long
time political writer on the Detroit
Journal, issued statement last week
in which he sizes up tho political sit
uation in Michigan. Mr.. Cremer 4
statement was widely copied. AS TO
its reliability there is little question
for Mr. Cremer interviewed by CORES
pondence prominent men and men
who keep their thumbs on the state {
political pulse in all sections. In
brief. his deductions are that Gov.
ernor Ferris is a mighty sight stronger
than he was two years ago that no
republican candidate yet named is
particularly strong with the people
that the ante primary contest already
started in the republican ranks is
ipjuring the chances of the men nam
ed that John q. Ross is the strong
est candidate. unallied with any OF
this inter-psrty strife, and that the
slump in the Moose following is help
ing the republicans If they can only
profit by it and stop the inter party
contest.
Well. Mr.. Cremsrs conclusions
with the exception of the John O.
Ross portion of IL, are not new to
any observer with half political
eye Gov. Ferris certainly is stronger
than he was. he is stronger with the
republicans, not with the democrats,
and, psradoxial as that may seem,
that's what makes him strong. The
fact that there is such CONTEXT in the
republican party and that in some in
stances it has developed bitter feeling
between supporters of a couple of the
aspirants is another fact that will make
Ferris strong. not because republicans
will prefer him TO the nominee but
because many may think another good
drnbbing the best agency to drive
home sense into the heads Of the repub.
lican aspirants for Office.
Mr.. Cremer will find many to tax
issue with him in his boost for John
q. Ross. Mr.. Ross has some mighty
enthusiastic support. His legislative
record has been clean but he has been
mixed up with politics during the past
few years and that alone would lead
many to prefer that be keep out.
Avain. his ieputed connection with
the liquor interests OF the state will
drive enough votes away from him to
Offset any that he can attract
