SoHlnlcTCIdI IIuO.
Mott, n. d., March 22.-The city
waterworks problem presents itself to
the commercial club of Mott as the
most important municipal issue at
present. At meeting of the club, the
proposition was quite thoroughly dis
cussed but no action was taken.
Citizens possess widely varied views
as to what steps should be taken to
give the city an adequate water sup.

WILDER EXPECTS
COP. SPLIT At
CHICAGO in JUNE

Those in the know" at San Fran
cisco believe with Secretary Of the
Interior Franklin X. Lane. who has
been visiting in the Bay City, that a
fine scrap is in prospect for the Re-
publican national convention at Chi
cago this summer, according to Judge
A. A. Wilder, who returned this morn
ing in the Matsonia from trip to the
coast on legal business.
Democrats in San Francisco eX'
pect a big scrap among the Republ1-
cans at Chicago" says the judge. IF
Roosevelt is not nominated there will
be another split like that in 1912 with
the Progressives doing the splitting,
and if he does get the nomination,
the Old Guard will buck"
Judge Wilder said that Secretary
Lane made several speeches in San
Francisco, telling commercial and
civic organizations before which he
spoke that the Democratic administra-
ton is in favor of peace, prosperity
and preparedness"
AS to what the nature of the legal
business was that called him to the
coast, Judge Wilder did not say. He
said he and R. w Single completed
it,in day and half. Both went up
on the Great Northern.

Mr.. Vance's argument is moral and

There is here, also, an interesting
chapter on the prescription Of alcohol

we take this suggestive remark: THE
