The attention OF many has been
given Iosco county for few weeks
past where the circuit judge OF that
circuit put several members OF the
board of supervisors and the prosecut-
ing attorney in Jail because they re-
fused to pay bill for some books that
he had ordered The bill amounted TO
5000 and Judge Widdis held the
supervisors in contempt OF court in
refusing to pay the bill and the pros
ecuting attorney likewise in contempt
for appearing before him as the legal
representative of the board. Last Fri
day at West Branch Judge Sharp OF
another circuit released the men on a
writ OF habeas corpus. Judge Sharp
severely censured both sides TO the
controversy and told the supervisors
TO go home and behave themselves.

for presidential preference and for
national committeeman, as two sep
arate and distinct elections, although
held on the same day. In accordance
with this construction, separate county
canvassers' statements and inspectors
statements will be furnished for each
of the elections, and 1t is suggested
that the poll books and tally sheets
furnished by the county be also kept
separate. Under this arrangement a
recount will not delay the return and
canvass of the other.

forwarded promptly following March

proved by the attorney general and

tion OF the ballot Names must be al
ternated on the ballot. Ballots OF all
political parties should be printed on

governing as TO the color. The vignette

MARCH IL THE LAST
Atty. General Removes All Doubt as TO
Last Day for Holding Caucuses

Attorney General Fellows has issued
letter in reply to inquiries about the
presidential primary In which he fixes
March 18th as the last day upon which
a caucus and convention can be held
under the act.
When the lawmakers say days at
least" there is always doubt just how
long they mean II might be sup
posed such language to mean that 20
days must elapse between the caucus
day and election day, but evidently
the attorney general counts one OF
these as one of the 20 days, and his
say so goes March IA be 1t. The last
day for giving notice by posting same
up would be counting five days at
least" in that way) Thursday. March
8, though reckoning clear days II would
be March s.
The ballots, the attorney general
also says, must be printed by Mar. 20.
In circular letter which is soon
to go out to the county clerks, the
secretary OF state lays down his rules
for the coming election.

GIVE THE PUBLIC ACCESS TO
LIBRARY

In our news columns appears
kick" from one OF our young men
over the failure of the school authori-
ties TO give library privileges TO the
community in general. The swelling
of the library fund by the large fines
imposed on blind piggers has brought
this library question prominently be
fore the minds OF the public and there
seems to be a general sentiment that
unless the public is given access TO the
library on certain evenings Ia the
week, some OF this library money
ought TO be diverted from the school
library and put into a public library.
Crystal Falls isn't large enough
for two libraries and besides there is
absolutely no necessity for duplica-
tion OF plants The community has
put money enough into school build
ings 70 have one room set apart for
public library purposes. Alpha has
the privilege of public reading room
AT its Porter school and there Is no
reason why Crystal Falls shouldn't
have similar privilege.
II Is wrong to suppose that all of
this money can be put into books for
adults Some Of II must be put into
; books for the younger children but
there ought 10 be plenty left to equip
a good library and II is time that our
school board took steps TO give the
public access to the library evenings

OSBORN HITS BACK

Since the time Ex-Governor Osborn
had his famous tilt with Mr.. Stair OF
the Detroit Free Press. that paper has
been a consistent foe OF the 500 man
and when Mr.. Osborn came into promin
ence recently in national affairs, the
Free Press took occasion to hurl a
javalin at the anatomy OF Mr. Os-
borns political ambition and labeled
him a "defunct political personality"
Mr.. Osborn wrote letter TO the
Free Press in reply, which he claims
the Free Press refused to print so Mr.
Osborn issued the letter broadcast to
the papers Of the state In his charact-
eristic way, Mr.. Osborn hits back with
a vengeance. He calls attention to the
fact that the term "defunct political
personality is not new but that II was
hurled at Abraham Lincoln. lie adds:

Crystal Falls Tailor Says There's No
Danger of Red Suits Ruling


We were informed last week by one
OF our exchanges that men are apt TO
be wearing red suits as a result OF the
scarcity OF dyes When shown the
article John r. Stolberg laughed heart
| lily and said.
1T amuses me TO read these items
about what the tailors' have decided
upon when know that the fellows
giving the interviews don't belong to
the tailors' convention You can put
that red suit stun down as pure
bunk. Either the fellow who gave that
out didn't know what he was talking
about or the reporter misconstrued
his words for the purpose of writing a
catchy story IL is true that there is
scarcity OF dyes ana the matter was
up in the tailors convention which met
in ST Louis but the consensus OF
opinion was that there would be no
extraordinary pinching of colors ex-
cepting in some particular shades.
The wooden men did hold of with their
selections until after the convention. a
proceeding that has not been done be-
fore.
You can say that the Addington and
Banjo stripes will be the ruling figures
in mems goods the coming year The
Addington runs three and two or four
and three, etc, while the Banjo runs
the same number OF striped threads in
each stripe.
"The tendency is towards a green
and blue but in that line the short
age OF dyes may make some difference
and the red stripe may predominant
but such thing as red suit is not
thought seriously OF just now"
The article which brought out the
reply from Mr.. Stolberg is as follows
did you ever think, boys. that you
would get to point where you would
blossom forth in bright red suit?
Just think OF IL! Putting on your
dress up suit OF red on a hot sum-
mer day, strolling down the bright
and sunny street to call on your best
girl and then when you get there find
what a terrible result has come upon
you and your suit through too close
association between the rays Of the
sun and that red cloth
cor imagine going out into the coun-
try for a stroll and meeting one of
those proverbial haters of red, wor-
shipped in some countries but COM
monty called bulls in America. And
then just think OF the result between
the bull-red mix-up
And now who wants TO wear red?
I'VE don't know but we may all sport
EN- before the war is over for cloth
ing men today insist that red, black,
white and grey may be the only col
ors for cloth i'm America until the war
is over. This is due to the fact that
practically all OF the dyes in the coun-
try come from Germany. This has
long been the case and hence no one
has tried to take up the work in Am
erica 1t is said that the moneyed
folks now will not spend any sum on
developing dyes here because when
the war ends Germany will fill up the
nation with its products since there
is no protective legislation for Ameri-
can dyes.

Governor Ferris went on record in
an interview last Monday as favoring
military training in colleges. How
ever, the governor knocked over the
kettle and spilled all the good out Of
II by saying that he is not in favor OF
the training compulsory. Ping
Pong is a good thing also for college
boys II not made compulsory.

Don't get IL into your head that the
work of Judge Flanagan last Thurs
day was an easy task for him To per-
form. He alone knows how severe the
task was The people who want Iron

and order prevails have very much TO
thank Judge Flanagan for.
