Note These Concentrations
OF Chase S. 0SbOrn'S Record

Among the other privileges that will
be shared by the voters of Michigan at
the coming election will be that of vot
ing for one Of the several candidates
for Governor, whose names will be
printed on the official ballot.
Two of these candidates for Gov.
ernor have occupied the high office to
which they again aspire. What has
been true as to their records as state
officials2
The taxpayers of Michigan know it to
be true that the present administration.
that of Governor Ferris, has been the
costliest period in the history of our
state.
The people of Michigan also KIN ow
that Governor Osborn had the courage
OF his convictions and that he vetoed
such appropriation bills as he thought
were not Immediately needed and cut
out other items that he knew could be
spared.
AS Michigan's chief executive Mr..
Osborn kept his promises to the voters
in the matter of careful and economical
business management
What further can be said of Mr..
Osborn's record as Governor of the
state? Here is what Mr.. Ferris said of
it just before he assumed the duties of
the Office he now holds:
"If can do as much for the people
Of the state as Governor Osborn has
done will feel that ! have made a
splendid mark. am delighted at the
endorsements that Governor Osborn
has received and heartily agree with
all Of them. Two years ago read his
inaugural address to the legislature
and concluded that he was a man Of
convictions. There arc few messages
that can compare with that docu-
ment."
Lawton T. Hemans, who has twice
been the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor, at the conclusion of Mr.. Osborn
term as Governor, said of him: 81
think that Governor Osborn has sue
coded in bringing about new era
in Michigan politics and the people
of Michigan will always have reason
to feel proud that they made him their
leader"
Z. o. Wood, present secretary of the
Democratic state central committee. at
the same time said of Governor Osborn
record: 1.-THE legislation that has been
enacted during the two years of his
administration will stand as a perpet-
uaI monument to Governor Osborn's
efforts to place Michigan among tho
foremost states of the Union"
The voters OF Michigan should have
this record of the Republican candidate
for Governor in mind when they pre-.
pare their ballots on election day.

Why This Silence on Democratic
Tariff Law.

One important fact directly related to
the coming election in Michigan is that
every Democratic campaign document,
every Democratic editorial deliberately
witholds all reference to Democratic
tariff legislation.
And yet it is known to all voters that
congressman are 20 be chosen at the
coming election, and the most effective
performance of the present Democratic
congress was its Wilson administration
tariff law.
Why then this complete silence with
reference to that long heralded Demo-
Ct attic tariff law?
Why are Democratic speakers and
Democratic writers now ignoring and
avoiding the very subject to which they
gave most attention when they were
making promises two years ago in be-
half of Democratic legislation and
Democratic candidates?
Why this silence2 do you ask. The
farmers of Michigan can give good
answers through telling of the enor.
nous loss that has come to them through
this Democratic tariff law.
The workingmen of Michigan can
quickly explain why no reference is
being made by Democrats to that party Z
tariff law.
The decrease Of more than three mil.
lion dollars in the saving deposits of
state banks in Michigan, within per.
iod of two and a half months, add to
the force of the workingmen's answer.
The many thousands of men In this
state now seeking employment, who had
good positions and good wages before
this tariff law was enacted, can give
further reason why there Is Democratic
desire now to forget that law.
American business men in bankruptcy
the closed doors of American factories,
the closed mines Of our own state, the
reduced totals OF American bank clear.
ings-every fact related to the present
business and industrial affairs of our
country, contribute their additional
answers as to why there is Democratic
silence with reference to Democratic
tariff legislation.
But the voters of Michigan need not
be silent and should not be silent touch.
ing this Democratic tariff law.
Every Republican vote cast will be an
eloquent and effective protest against
that hurtful laws continued existence.

AGED MAN IN POISON CASE
Neighbors Assert Dying Wife Accused
Civil War Veteran.

Vevay, Ind, Oct. 2S.-Authorities
are facing a mystery in their effort
to explain the death of Mrs. Edward
Pickett, forty-nine years old, the wife
of prominent resident of this city,
who died suddenly. A physician tes.
titled before the coroner that death
was due to strychnine poisoning. Her
husband, civil war veteran, seventy
two years old, called a physician to
his home when his wife suffered con-
vulsion within an hour after she had
visited neighbors block away. The
husband asserted he had given his
wife only medicine which had been
prescribed by physician for attacks
of falntness.
For weeks before her death Mrs,
Pickett had evidently been in good
health When physicians appeared
at the home in response to the hus-
bands call they found the woman
fully clothed, lying upon a bed and
suffering from commissions. In state
ment made to a physician and several
neighbors fifteen minutes before she
died Mrs. Pickett is said to have ex-
claimed, "Oh, he gave me two tablets;
I'm going to die" The physicians
were agreed that death was due to
poisoning, but search of the house
failed to reveal any medicine which
would have caused death. The hus-
band testified at the inquest that he
gave his wife medicine Cor heart dis
ease.
