WHO KNOWS?

The good concrete roads that this
man, Van Pelt is so strongly advocating
may not be needed in few years. Re-
member, the flying machine is in the
air.
We were talking with Van about this
the other day and called his attention
to it. "Well', he said, that is right
Stranger things than that have happen
ed. Nobody expected that submarine
would ever be built that could cross the
ocean, but il has been done and even
at the great cost incurred, it paid for
itself the first trip. So il may be with
the flying machine. But we have the
autos on hand now and it is our duty 10
build roads that will stand up under
the great strain put upon them until
the flying machine is made perfect and
cheap. Probably, Henry" will get up
flying machine and he may be work
ing on them now for all we know. A
Ford flyer with a Ford auto would
make great combination. If the auto
should give out, the flyer could pick it
up and take it and its contents to its
destination and if the flyer should give
out, the little tin Elizabeth could pick it
up, put il on the running board and
there you are.
"In the meantime, you know, and so
do |, that there is no road except brick
or concrete that we can use to advant-
age at the present time. The concrete
roads are now all built in our minds.
Now, lets move up another peg and
build them in reality, for it is the ideal
road and the interest on the cost of this
road will not begin to be as large as the
upkeep Of macadam road"
Another thing in its favor is the fact
that we will have the use of il now and
it will be good for fifty years, if it is
properly built, and with but little
expense for its upkeep-that is, il the
street opposite the Elston Hotel (now
Michigan at the south end of Bridge
Street in Charlevoix is any criterion.
This piece OF road has been down seven
years without one cent of expense for
upkeep and is as good today as il was
when laid and the travel that it has
alread1 been subjected to has been
greater than the entire traffic from
Charlevoix to East Jordan since the
County uoe fret eattlad ~
Now, which is the cheapest road for
us to build-the nine foot macadam
road that we are now building, or the
nine foot concrete road with shoulders
of crushed hardheads, four feet wide
on either side, making road seventeen
feet in width?"

September 80
Memory Day
Governor Ferris Urges All To
Look at HeirlOOms and Recall
Departed Friends.

Gov. Ferris has issued the following
proclamation designating Sat. Sept. 80,
as Memory Day." 'For the young
there are no real memory days. The
young have little concern about the
past. They are content with the pre-
sent or they are impatiently peering in
to the future. The aged care little for
the future and naturally look to the
great past On Sept. 80, let us refresh
our memories by again looking at the
old daguerreotypes, photographs and
keepsakes of those gone before. Let
us again tell the tales of our school and
childhood days, tell of the struggle and
victories of our fathers and mothers
and comrades, tell the story of our
eountry's birth and growth and tri-
umph. 1t is our wish that ere long the
thirtieth day of September may become
Memory day throughout the nation.
Therefore, |, Woodbridge N. Ferris,
Governor of Michigan, do hereby issue
this proclamation and enthusiastically
urge the observance of Saturday, Sept.
Both, 1916, as Memory Day."

BEANS S. PER BUSHEL
Michigan Jobbers Fix Prices to
Prevail for Season.

Detroit.-Although bean conditions
have improved % per cent within the
last few weeks, Michigan will not have
more than one-half the normal crop,
members of the Michigan Bean Grow

Grand Rapids the other day to make a
scale of prices for Michigan beans.
The association voted in favor of s.
per bushel for beans, beginning Oct. 1,
with an increase of from 10 to 15 cents
month thereafter to cover the storage
and transportation. These prices may
be increased and to regulate the mar
ket a committee was named, consisting
of A. b. Cook, Of Shiawassee county;

Sec'y Co. Com.

George and Henry Strevel, father
and son, residing twelve miles north
west from Bay City, have been arrested
on complaint of Assistant State Fire
Marshal, Sam Robinson on the charge
of setting fire to the formers dwelling
early the morning Of Sept. 9Th with in.
tent to defraud the London and Liver
pool and Globe Fire Insurance Co.
Strevel carried 50, 400 insurance which
was written Aug. Is, 1916. Sheriff
Fitzgerald and the fire marshal found
that the property had been fired In
nine different places and that a quanti-
ty Of kerosene had been used for the
purpose. Strevsl admitted to the Off
GERS that he had had eight former fires
several upon which he had collected
insurance.
The more praise man bestows on
himself the wiser he is not.
II is easier to criticise the small mis-
takes of others than II is not to make
few large ones yourself.

But from the standpoint of "letting
the people rule" this is hallow farce.
Nothing could be farther removed from
that ideal than that six leaders and 70
signers of petitions, residing in Hast
ings, Middleville, Nashville and Wood
land, should make the primary nomina-
tions for the 1000 democrats of Barry
county. How nearly that approaches
the ideal Of letting the people make
their own nominations we leave our
readers to judge.
Turn now to the republican party,
whose 5000 voters put it decidedly in
the lead in this county. Reprssen-
tative, sheriff and treasurer are run
ming for second terms; so no contests
for those places. There are four candi.
dates for probate Judge, three for
prosecutor and two for register. The
petitions, except for coroners, for re-
publican candidates, bear different
names.
In the past about 1000 republicans
have voted at Barry county primaries.
Because of greater interest this year,
probably 1900 will do so. II contests
are nearly even, it would be possible
for 400 republicans to nominate the
candidate for probate Judge, and $50 or
600 their candidate for prosecutor.
In other words, minority Of the
voters who actually vote, and but
small fraction of the 5000 republican
voters of the county will do the nominat-
ing for probate Judge and prosecutor.
The widest and widest stretch Of the
Imagination could not say that law
under which such results as we have
indicated are certain or possible can be
other than ineffective, when the ideal
aimed at is: 'Let the people rule"
The Banper suggests a possible
remedy. 1t would cost but fraction
of the expense of the August primary.
Let the voters OF all parties at the April
election, by secret ballot choose dele
gates to county convention. Let all
candidates for county and state office
file nomination petitions as now. Let
the delegates at such convention by
secret Australian ballot, choose all
candidates for county office, and all
delegates to state and district conven-
tions. Let all names of candidates for
county office or delegates appear on
the one ballot, and require majority
of the convention to nominate. Let
state and district conventions choose
candidates for state officers, congress
sional and legislative candidates In the
same manner, by the secret Australian
ballot system. Back the law with a good
corrupt practices act, and money would
be saved to the taxpayers and to the
candidates, and the people would have
a better chance to rule than they do
under the present primary law.

Coming of the
Wholesalers
Will Spend Next Wednesday
Night In East Jordan.

AS announced in these columns, the
Eleventh Annual Trade Extension
Tour of the Grand Rapids Association
of Commerce will be held this coming
week and East Jordan will be one Of
the four night stops made on the trip.
A couple Of gentlemen representing
the Wholesalers were in our city Tues
day evening and met with some Of the
officers of our Board of Trade. Ar
rangements were made for and a big
public meeting will be held at the Tenn
pie Theatre next Wednesday evening
at o'clock, when the Wholesalers will
favor the people of East Jordan with
several good address, excellent music
by the Furniture City Band, and some
vocal selections
This meeting will not be confined to
the business men of our city alone, but
the farmers of this region as well as
the citizens in general of our city are
invited to attend, enjoy the program,
and meet the representatives of Grand
Rapids.
The Wholesalers are men intensely
interested in our state and do not have
the privilege of meeting their many
customers and visiting the towns and
take this way of becoming better ac-
quainted with their customers, the
towns, and the state. This will be
vacation trip for the heads of these
many different firms-because they are
not after business on this trip and will
come in a special train of Pullman cars,
with one of the best bands in the state,
plenty OF souvenirs, special car being
attached TO the train for this purpose.
The greatest possible interest is be-
ing manifested in this trip as indicated
in the acceptance of the leading Grand
Rapids banks and others. The Whole

Cooperation of
Everyone
Is Desired In The Coming Tu-
bercular Campaign.

In the tuberculosis survey of the state
board of health that will be held in this
county early in October special efforts
will be made to secure the cooperation
OF the churches, of the employers of
labor and of various local organizations.
During the week before the free clinics
are held state board OF health nurses
will come here to make all the neces-
sary preliminary arrangements.
The pastors in the various towns in
the county will be asked by the health
workers to place the subject before
their congregations, to call attention 10
the dates and places where the clinics
will be held, and to impress upon their
congregations the advisability of taking
advantage of this opportunity for free
examination.
Employers of labor throughout the
county will be requested to let those of
their employees who need a physical
examination go to the free clinics. The
state board OF health is trying, in ali
these county health campaigns, to get
into close touch with all persons whose
work is indoors and who consequently
are more likely to be physically run
down than others.
The state health nurses moreover
will get into touch with all the physi-
clans they can reach and with all other
persons of influence in the various
communities in an effort to secure their
aid. The main purpose is to get as
many physically run down persons in
each community as possible to submit
to an examination, and everybody can
aid in this by urging friends and
acquaintances to take the test.
