Frank B. Leland

Detroit News editorial Aug. 5, 1860
Now that the Wayne county and De-
troit Republican organizations are
pledged to Frank B. Lelands candi-
dacy for governor, his chances of Sc
curing the nomination have been great
ly improved. Detroit has not pro-
duced governor since Pingree-and
Michigan admits that he was a good
one. But Mr. Leland has more than a
geographical calm to consideration.
He combines the education and train
ing of a lawyer with those of a bust
ness man, and is thus fitted not only
to give Michigan that business ad-
ministration" which of late years has
been so DANGEROUSLY desired by certain
groups, but also to give expert atten-
ton TO legislation.
Mr. Leland has never been an office
seeker His election as regent of the
University of Michigan in 1907 and
again in 1913 gave him a place of
honor rather than Of political influence.
1t was a position in which executive
capacity was needed, and this Mr.. Le-
land showed he had. In another field
of public service he has won popular
esteem-the fight against tuberculosis.
There he has shown fine qualities of
organization and leadership.
s. Michigan Republicans will do we'll
to consider the qualifications of the
Wayne county candidate, and to com
pare them with those of other aspir-
ants for the nomination. 1t would be
a mistake to choose him merely be-
cause Detroit may feel that this city is
entitled to consideration. But if his
record and his abilities, his broad
mindedness and his freedom from fac
tionalism appeal to the party, it should
not let minor considerations influence
it.

alliance with the past and promises for
the future. He' has no elements Of
weakness to defend or explain.
i Michigan needs an honest man for
governor and one of ability, courage,
broadmindedness and good common
sense.
Such a man is FRANK B. LELAND.

With Lieutenant Governor l.. ID.
Dickinson, Eaton county's former can
didate for the gubernatorial race, out
of the field for governor, the voters
will be turning TO one or another of
the candidates for the place and Frank
B. Leland of Detroit, seems to meet
with considerable favor in local circles
and is also making strong gains
througout the state. Wayne county
will give Mr.. Leland almost solid sup
port as at recent meeting of various
factions it appeared that all were
united on him.
Mr.. Leland was born on an Oakland
county farm and today owns and oper-
ates the farm on which his boyhood
was spent. He worked his way through
the University of Michigan, and has
made good as lawyer in Flint and
Detroit. He has been twice elected a
regent of the University of Michigan,
which office he has filled with credit

great support he is receiving from the
thousands Of University alumni.
Mr.. Leland organized a savings
bank, of which he has been president
for Is years, and it is a thoroughly
capable business man who would make
a governor strong enough to bring
about improved methods in the states
system of taxation and expenditures,
concerning which he has expressed
himself in no uncertain terms.
Mr. Leland is a man of high ideals,
undaunted courage and tireless indus
try and his election TO the office of
governor would mean the Inauguration
of many important public improve
ments, with a big reduction in ex-
penses, which would be relief to the
overburdened taxpayers of the state.
Mr.. Leland is not tied to any Of the
factions or interests and, as governor,
would be in better position to give
the state better service than if he had

new Librarian
TO Be APPOINTED
Names of Two Democratic
Women Are Being Men
toned in Connection With
the Place.

With change of state admnistra
ton in Idaho will come change in
the librarian of the free travelling Ii
brary at the state house. This fact
developed today. The present libra
rian Is Miss Margaret Roberts, who has
held the position for a number of years.
The state library commission is COM
posed of the attorney general, secre-
tary of state, superintendent of pub
lie instruction and the president of the
University of Idaho. who is an OK
ofticio member. The commission will
meet Immediately following the inau-
guration of the new elective state Off
Gals.
There will he two Democrats on the
commission, the attorney general and
the secretary of stated elect. The one
Republican member is the state super
intendent of public instruction. Ex-
ofticio members of commissions and
boards do not have a vote AS u rule.
In the event. however. il is held, that
the president Of the university has a
vote. then a tic would be created on the
library commission. II is believed that
this condition will not arise and that
the Democrats, being in the majority,
will have the power 90 name the new
travelling librarian.
TWO NAMES MENTIONED.
But two names have so far been
linked with the appointment, those of
Mrs. :. 7. Schneider and Mrs. James e..
Green, neither Of whom is said to he
an active aspirant Both are well
known women o. Boise.
The state law library maintained ut
the state capitol is under the control
of the supreme court of this state. The
Justices Of that tribunal name the Ii
braran. They were elected as non
partisans and politics will not enter
into the naming of the librarian. Mrs
William Balderston is at the present
time state law librarian. Her work has
been very satisfactory, it is said by
those familiar with the law library sit
uation, and there viii be no change in
the librarian. II is likely. however,
there may be q change in the assistant

and such studies as German, Latin
and Greek were taught. The
growth of the school was phenome-
nal until our adjoining towns caught
the educational spirit and organ
lied similar schools, thereby TAX
ing the students who came from
different places to this school back
to their home schools.
This, together with the Civil War
which broke out in 1861, and last
ed until 1865, were the chief causes
of the downfall of the academy.
In 1867 this building was bought
by Nathan Harlan, the township
trustee, for the beginning of the
Christian church with w. d. Moore
as minister. Rev. Moore also taught
a private school in the upper room
Of the building.
In 1872 it was sold again to the
township for a public school build
ing and used for such with three
teachers, until 1894. In this year
it was destroyed by a cyclone and
many rushed to the old building to
buy relics, one of which, the clock,
is now owned by Mr.. Ollie Hunt.
When the building was destroyed
Smith Hunt was trustee and Alb
bolt Mott. county superintendent.
The ground on which the school
building was situated was sold to
Mrs Margaret E. Hunt 1t now be-
longs to Mr. Bert Hunt, and they
