This is a year however, when
the republicans of not only Mich
igan but throughout the entire
United States will put forth every
effort to achieve the success
which they believe will be theirs
at the polls next November. A
splendid National ticket has al
ready been nominated, and re-
publicans throughout the state
and in every congressional dis
trict and county will work hard
to nominate whom they believe
to be the strongest men for the
various places on the ticket.
There is no question but that a
man of years Of experience in
congress will add more strength
to the ticket than any new man
who might aspire to the place.
Mr.. Hamilton's experience, his
recognized ability as a public
speaker, his Influence and abll-
ity on the floors of congress and
his standing in the nation, make
him this year of all years most
desirable addition to the repub-
lican ticket. We believe this
view will be shared quite gener-
ally by republicans throughout
the Fourth Congressional dis.
trict.

No Aspirations Or Inspirations

la the passing of Nathan +.
Simpson as Warden of the Jack.
son State Prison on the appoint
ment of his successor, Michigan
will lose the services of one of
the strongest and most capable
officials that has ever held a
public trust in this state. His
revolution of the affairs of this
penal institution have marked
him as one of the foremost or.
ganizers and most capable eX-
ecutives in the country today.
His services in the Jackson in
stitution were appreciated and
recognized by Governor Ferris
and the Board Of Control at the
prison, who recommended sub
stantial increase in salary, be-
lieving that he should receive an
amount somewhere in keeping
and commensurate with his worth
to the state. Auditor General
Fuller however blocked the re-
commentator and the warden
did not get the raise. This prob
ably has had nothing to do with
the Warden's resignation but the
action of the Auditor General in
the matter was to say the least,
mighty poor business policy and
in the years to come will be con-
sidered a blot on his administra-
ton.
Mr.. Simpson has been men
toned by some of the state pa
pers as candidate for guberna-
torial honors. His popularity
and recognized ability would
make him a formidable candi-
date, but he states in a communi-
cation to the writer, that he has
no Inspirations or inspirations
POLITICAL and that his friends in
Van Buren, county may act upon
that statement. Whatever he
may decide to do, or wherever
he may go, Nathan + Simpson
will be strong and will have a
warm spot in the hearts of the
people Of Michigan.

opposition. John G. Ketcham of

The field is made up of excel.

help but reveal the fact that of
all the men in the state who are

experience, mental ability and
standing in the state is best
equipped to head the republican

but ip other states as we'll. He
would be a real Governor, in
debted to no clique or faction,
and big" enough to represent
his state with hohor to himself

danger in the primary is that the
vote will be so split among the
various candidates that the weak.

A Matter Of Justice

w dIlucu up COuSluel dOly uul III q
the past two weeks, and will in
all probability continue at fever
heat until the primaries on Aug
ust %. The chief contest in the
campaign, so far as the republi-
can county ticket is concerned
centers about the Office Of Pro-
bate Judge. William Killefer
the present incumbent who is
completing his first term in that
Office, is being opposed by Pros
ecuting Attorney Earl l.. Bur-
hans, now serving a second term.
The principal issue in this cam
paign seems to be the fact that
Judge Killefer was elected on the
Progressive ticket four yearsago.
The True Northerner has no per.
sonal interest in this campaign
neither do we desire to throw
any stones in the path of any
candidate for any Office. We do
not believe however, in the inter
est of good politics and efficiency
in public ONCE, that the issue in
this campaign is well taken.
During the past four years, the
republican party together with
the leaders Of the Progressive
party have been making every
effort to get together as republi-
cans for the national campaign
that is now before US. Even
Theodore Roosevelt who alone
is responsible for the existence
four years ago of the Progress
i've party, refused a nomination
this year on a third ticket and
will give his support to the sue
cess and election of the republi.
can ticket AS the matter now
stands there is no third party,
and a great majority Of those
who went astray four years ago
are now with the republican par
ty. If Judge Killefer was now
asking a nomination for a first
term on the republican ticket the
situation would be vastly differ
ent. But he has served one term
IN that Office to the satisfaction
of every body Even those who
are now opposing him, must con
cede that he has made one of the
best Probate Judges Van Buren,
county ever had, His years Of
experience in Justice Court,
his wide knowledge of affairs,
and his universal courtesy and
excellent judgment make him
an ideal official in that capacity.
He has given his undivided at
tention to the affairs of the office
and we have yet to hear single
criticism on his administration.
He has been in the Office early
and late. During business hours
he has been or the job. No pri-
vate business has divided his
time or claimed portion of his
energies. He has been a real
Probate Judge and rendered to
the county such service as they
are entitled, and such service as
they should demand from every
AS already stated, The True
Northerner has no personal int
crest in this or any other cam
paign. In the interest however
of efficiency in Office and as a mat.
ter of justice and right, it is our
opinion that Judge Killefer
should be accorded the same
courtesy and favor that has been
given every Probate Judge in the
last fifty years and be nominated |
and elected for a second term.

parts Of the state, all claiming at
this time walk way at the
primaries. From all indications
this will be a republican year all
along the line, aud for that rea-

ERROR CORRECTED

Last week The True Norther
ner contained an item clipped
from an exchange relative to the
so.called 'Ashbrook Bill" which
was erroneous. The facts are as
follows:-
This is a bill to increase the
pension of widows who are seven.
ty years of age from, So to 500
per month. The bill has passed
the house of representatives and
has been reported favorably by
the senate committee We are
informed that the bill is on the
calendar for final consideration
of the senate before adjournment.
So the bill is dot yet law. as
the item of last week stated, and
the amount if it becomes a law
will be $50 instead of $50 as
stated.
