The Charlotte Republican says of ex
Senator L. D. Dickinson of Eaton
county, who is one of the aspirants fol
lieutenant government on the Republi
can ticket:
Because of Mr.. Dickinsons services
as an official in the interest of the state
he should be considered candidate at
large rather than that of Eaton county
alone. He is best known in, as well as
outside of the state as the Father of
Michigan Primary Election Law. For
three sessions he led the forces for this
refo run which resulted in permanent
statute on the subject. He is also the
author of several other important laws.
1t was said at the close of hist term In
the legislature that no member in 25
years if ever, had more important legis-
lation checked up to him than had Mr..
Dickinson.
He has been in demand as a public
speaker on the various SUBJECTS in Mich
igan and other states for many years.
His private business and legislative life
is above reprosch. He carried AZ coun-
ties four years ago for the nomination
for lieutenant governor and was de-
feated by small plurality. He had no
sore spots but was found fighting for
the party's success in the campaign
following with undated interest. Such
loyalty has, almost without exception,
been rewarded by the Republican party
with nomination as it's next candi-
date for such place. If the candidate has
80 desired. MIR. Dickinson should be
no exception and his nomination should
be emphatic. He favored the nomins-
ton Of Roosevelt at Chicsgo but when
Mr.. Roosevelt was defeated he felt that
the principles Of the Republican party
were greater than any man and there
fore supported the party ticket.
While Mr.. Dickinson has other inter.
ests he is practical farmer and lives
on farm and the farmers throughout
the state srs asking for his nomination
at the August primary. They ask it
because they have not had farmer for
lieutenant governor-an official 80 i'm
portant to them-in 80 years and posi-
bly, not in the history of the state.
They ask for Mr.. Dickinson because he
knows every detail of the Office, because
he is good parliamentarian, and
would make first class official"
The selection of Mr.. Dickinson would
be wise one and his name on the
ticket will strengthen the party.

Filtered Gaslight For Rural Homes

Acetylene Gaslight is natural light.
In fact it is plain, everyday, world-old
Sunlight. But it is Sunlight muzzled
so that you can use it as soft" or as
brilliant as you choose, by the mere turn
ing of tap on the chandeliers, or by the
use of plain white glass globes.
Moreover, Acetylene is practically
filtered light from which all useless or
Injurious color, SCOT, or excessive heat
factors are eliminated.
On this account an Acetylene flame,
one-tenth the size of that from Kerosene,
Gasoline or City Gas, gives as much
reading light as ten-tenths of these other
illuminants. Which means that Acety-
1ene produces only fraction Of the heat,
air-consumption and Carbonic Acid Gas

NO REASON WHY MEN
SHOULD Be SUSPECTED
Example of Patriotism Set
By Warburg and Jones in
Accepting Appointments
at Great Sacrifice to Their
Own Interests.

Washington, July S.-DeclarinK It
would be unfair to regard the Demo-
cratic party as an enemy OF big or lit
tie business. President Wilson gave
out statement today in support of
Paul w. Warburg, of New York and
Thomas D. Jones, Of Chicago, his nom
inees for the federal reserve board.
The presidents statement In part fol-
lows: 1T would be particularly unfair
to the Democratic party and to the
senate itself to regard 1t as an enemy
of business, big or little. 1 am sure
that 1t does not regard a man as an
object of suspicion merely because he
has been connected with great busi-
ness enterprises. 1t knows that the
business of the country has been chief
ly promoted in recent years by enter
prise and organized on a great scale
and that a vast majority of the men
connected with what we have come
to call big business are honest, In
corruptive and patriotic The country
may be certain that It is clear to the
members Of the senate, as II is clear
to all thoughtful men, that those who
have tried to make big business what
it ought to be, are men to be encour-
aged and honored, whenever they re-
spond without reserve to the call for
public service.
Example Of Patriotism.
81 predict with the greatest coafi-
dence that nothing done by the Dem
ocratic majority of the senate will be
Of a sort to throw suspicion on such
men. Mr. Jones and Mr. Warburg
in manifesting their willingness to
make personal sacrifices and put their
great experience and ability at the
service of the government, without
thought of personal advantage, in the
organization Of a great reform which
promises to be so serviceable to thl
nation. are setting an example of pa.
triotism and public spirit which the
whole country admires."
The president said he earnestly hoped
Warburg would reconsider his de-
cision not to accept the nomination
and that he was urging him to do so.
He expressed confidence that Jones
would be confirmed.
