From The Leader, St.Louis-
Through the untiring efforts of Ora
tot county's Representative in the
State Legislature, the state of Michi-
gan mas an auto tax law which is con-
sidered fair and just and St.Louis has
bccl chosen as one of the three adj
ditional cities in Michigan to have a
Free State Labor Employment Bur-

A dispatch from Lansing sent out
May 3, is as follows:
GAS the result of bill that slipped
through almost unnoticed during the
closing hours of the legislature Thurs
day, free employment bureaus will be
established at Lansing, StLouis and
Bad Axe.
The original bill was introduced in
the upper house by Senator Wood
worth, of Caseville, providing for the
establishment of free employment
bureau at Bad Axe. When the bill
reached the house. practically every
Representative tried 10 amend il so as
to provide for an employment bureau
in one Of the towns o. his district.
Representative Person. of Lansing
and Representive Newell Smith, of
Gratiot. were the only ones to succeed
in hitching amendments to the bill
The amended measure was returned
to the senate, and during the hilarious
hours last Thursday, it went through
unnoticed
Until today apparently no one ex.
cept the clerical force of the house
and senate knew that the bill had
passed"
The Hon. Newell Smith in his first
speech before the House on the selec
ton of St. Louis as one Of the place:
to establish the Employment Bureau

lied by pains in the joints and in the
muscles. The most common forms
are: Acute and Chronic Rheumatism
Rheumatic Headaches, Sciatic Rheu-

SAD DEATH

Mrs. Harriet Parks Weber, twenty
years old, daughter of Marion Parks,
died at her home on Grant Ave-, Sun
day, following a lingering illness of
over a years duration with tubercu-
losis. Her husband had left her few
days before, sending a misleading let
ter to her from Ludington suggesting
that he might commit suicide. This
is believed to be a cowardly fake.
Funeral services were held at the
home of the deceased with Captain
Lamont of the Salvation Army offici-
ating. The body was taken to Shep-
herd for burial. The deceased came
from Shepherd where she was born

A very commendable plan is being
advanced by the Cemetery Committee
to provide for fixed appropriation
from the city to keep up the expense
and care for Riverside Cemetery. The
proposition is to spread about $1,000
on the tax roll each year which would
be a tax of four cents on a thousand
dollar assessment. 1t is a very pop
ular move and one that should be car
ried out. At the present time the ex-
pense is being cared for by sale of lots
and donations of Sl.00 from parties
who desire to have their lots cared
for, which is very uncertain and in
adequate to keep up the grounds in
manner in keeping with Alma. This
proposition is being adopted by other
cities.

The sinking of the Cunard Liner,
Lusitania is the worst marine disaster
since the loss of the Titanic, and is one
of the most terrible in the history OF
ocean navigation. But the Titanic
wreck was due to natural and proba-
bly unavoidable causes; that of the
Lusitania, was the deliberate work Of
human hands. There have been TAR
greater tragedies in the present war,
there have been battles in which the
loss of life was infinitely more serious
than in the present instance, but no
disaster i'm which the number of non
combatants, of innocent men, wom-
en- and children whose lives have
been taken approached this. 1t is cas-
ily one of the most sensational events
of the war.
1t may prove in its effect TO be high
ly important also. 1t serves as ter
rible warning to the world that the
Germans are in grim seriousness in
their efforts to blockade the waters a
bout England and Irland. What the
effect upon shipping will be remains
to be shown
Certainly confidence has been con
siderably shaken and unless some fur
Their protection can be given against
submarines it may be that the owners
of vessels may hesitate about risking
them in the prescribed water. 1t is
not likely however that the interfer-
ence with shipping will be so serious
and will so far handicap the allies
as to have an important effect upon
the outcome of the war
