Brooklyn Democratic Boss

ECHO or MuRPHY'S WORDS

John II. McCooey. Brooklyn Democratic
leader. said Yesterday:
81 have never been against William
Church Osborn for state chairman. Tho
only question is, is George VI. Palmer
ready to resign that place" I am not in
favor OF forcing Mr.. Palmer out | do
not think that il the way TO play the
game II Mr Palmer is ready 10 resign
! think the party Is fortunate in securing
the services Of 80 able n man as Mr..
Osborn"
Which is exactly what Charles r. Muir
ply has said
MFR Murphy wasn't IN town yesterday.
nor was Mr.. Osborn. who has agreed to
take the state craftsmanship if Mr. Palmer
steps out. Mr. palmer's resignation is
virtually arranged Tor. His appointment
to good state job, possibly workmcn s
compensation conmissionership IFS eX-
pected to be announced by the Governor
early next week.
The Wilson Democrats. who are work
ing with Gov. Glynn to rcvamp the party
organization. are in favor of making IL
easy" for Mr.. Palmer, IL has Il good
personal record, and the only complaint
against him as state chairman Is that he
has allowed Mr.. Murphy to be the real
chairman.
Politicians here uude rstand that Gov.
Glynn will nominate the five compensation
commits soners and two upstate Public
Service Commissioners on Monday or
Tuesday. There Is hope, too. that he will
have selected John T.. Eustis's successor
on the Public Service Commission Of this
city by that time. Most of the guessing
now centres about the name of Travis ".
whitney. secretary OF the commission.
Brooklyn Republicans and independents
have been working hard for him. but FOR
some reason Tammany men are saying
that Whitney hasn't chance The
friends Of Raymond u. Fosdick, who was
recommended by Mayor Mitchell. have not
given up hope.
Mr.. Murphy having proclaimed himself
an upliftor and said that he's for Osborn
II Palmer quits and that Gov. Glyun is the
leader OF the party in the State. is sitting
tight and waiting for the Governor to
make the next move. That move Will be

No, the above is not a picture of
"Bill Taft" although his friends call
him that owing to the resemblance. 1t
is picture of John H. Lewis of boyne
City who is asking the support OF the
Republicans of CharlevoiX County for
the nomination of sheriff at the Pri-
mary Election August 25th.
While the newcomers in our city are
probably not acquainted with Mr..
Lewis, the older residents know him
we'll as he was a regular visitor to our
village in the days gone bye.
John H. Lewis is the oldest butcher
in CharlevoiX County today. He was
born in Ionia County in 1864 and came
to Charlevoix County when only lad
of IS years. Locating at Boyne City he
started at the butcher trade the follow
ing year without any capital About
eighteen years ago he established the
Central Meat Market" and by hard
labor and conscientious efforts he built
up this business until now his taxes
amount to about 100000 a year.
Mr.. Lewis was for years frequent
visitor to East Jordan, coming here on
both business and pleasure. He was
leader of the Boyne City Band for
several years, and being an able corn
etist he assisted the East Jordan Band
and played for dances at the old Love-
day Opera House.
Last October, as member of the
Board of Supervisors from Boyne City,
he gave the East Jordan supervisors
valuable assistance in securing the
thousand dollar appropriation for the
bridge here across the arm.
John H. Lewis has proven himself a
business man and would use the same
careful management of finances in the
Sheriffs office as he would in his own
affairs. He is one of the substantial
business men of our neighboring city,
and fraternally is member of the
Masons, Elks, Moose and Eagles.
He respectfully solicits your support
at the August Primary.

Mr.. Joe Bayliss was sheriff of Chip
pewa county for two terms, and is
serving his county as member of the
state legislature at the present time.
All are impressed with his personality.
He is big, wholesome, frank, honest
fellow and that he will be power in
congressional politics will have to be
conceded by his political foes. He has
-canvassed the entire district, and his
friends in various portions of the
district give him assurance of support
that are certainly flattering and encour-
aging.
His Republicanism is all right, his
record as public official is the best,
and We believe that no candidate now
before the people is as satisfactory to
the rank and file of the voters of this
section of the peninsula as is he.
(Mancelona News
While Mr.. Bayliss is staunch Re-
publican, he is very progressive one;
and instead of leaving the old party he
wishes thorough house cleaning and
stands for the statement that every
thing in the political field should be
done in the open and be able to stand
the light of publicity. His belief is the
greatest good for the greatest number

Mr.. Bayliss is a man of the people,

of this portion of Michigan.
