called the sheriffs office here. Sher- if Adams and Under Sheriff Billy Woolf, left at once for that place, to get the two men.
 The trip back was made in record time. The officers took the prisoner to the office of Justice of Peace Frank De SouZa, where he was form ally arraigned on two charges. His bond was fixed at s5000 in one case, and s1,0O0 in the other.
 From the justice office, the four flee. A large, crowd of spectators was gathered there, including former friends and employees of Henry's. Sheriff Adams took him into his in- ner office where he was searched. AS soon as this preliminary was con- cluded, he appeared in the outer of flee, where he greeted a number of i friends and bowed politely to several women present
 He had the appearance of one from | whose shoulders an immense load had been lifted He was not crest fallen, although he appeared years older than when he left. His beard was complete disguise, and only after a careful scrutiny would he be recognized by even close friends.
 His Release
 Efforts were immediately started as soon as Henrys bail had been ar ranged to secure bondsmen. In tn, meantime he languished in the coun ty jail. After some deliberation Joseph Cope Peter Corpstein. Re- Graham and A. H. Mclean appeared before Justice De Souza and signec , his bond. He was then release, from the jail, and went at once t the home of his daughter, Mrs. H H. Shirley
 His lntentio
 Henry had little to say after hi arrival here. but he let it be knowr I that he was in deadly earnest in re gard to the settling up of his affair. 9 He said that if such thing wer ' possible. he would have everythin : balanced up if it took him years { e do it.

ty poor loser, and in his efforts
to find some excuse for his de-
feat, has placed the successful
republican candidate, Albert E.
Sleeper in an embarrassing
position. 1t is probable that
some of the liquor men of the
state voted for Mr.. Sleeper in
the recent primary, and more
than probable that some of them
voted for Mr.. Leland, and some
for the various other gubelnat-
orial candidates. Be that as 1T
may, the fact remains, that Mr..
Sleeper is man who has always
given his support to the DRY"
movement in this state, and has
always been one of the heavy
contributors to the DRY" cause.
He does not appeal to any fact
ion in the liquor contests for sup
port at the polls. He believes
that the Prohibition question is
a social moral and economic one,
and has no place in party politics
This view is shared by even the
"Dry" leaders. Luren d. Dick
enson refused to be a candidate
for Governor on this ground.
The Prohibition movement in
Michigan is not a political issue,
and should not be so considered.
Mr.. Sleeper pledges himself to a
strict enforcement of the law
that will make Michigan really
"Dry" if the Prohibition amend
ment carries. If it is defeated,
he pledges himself to a strict en-
forcement of the existing laws
in the regulation of this business
Mr.. Sleeper is just as DRY" as
the democratic candidate, and
there is absolutely no reason or
excuse why any republican, no
matter how DRY" he may be,
should vote for Mr.. Sweet.
Don't be misled, or confused by
the strong appeals that are be-
ing made on behalf of the dem
ocratic candidate.

perhaps that would not look
good in print, crawled along be-
hind the buggy, until you reach
ed place wide enough TO turn
out and go by, giving the buggy
the full width of the road. The
law is just as strict in regard to
a horse and buggy as it is regard
ing an automobile. When an
auto comes up behind any
vehicle, it is the duty of the
driver of such vehicle to turn
out to the right, and give the
machine one half of the road in
which to turn out and pass.
There are some who probably do
not understand the law in this
regard, and others who do under
stand, but just stick to the road
out of pure cussedness. Every
one has his rights whether he
drives an automobile OF horse
and buggy, and if each would
concede that right to the other
fellow, there would be fewer ac-
cidents, less cause for complaint
and everybody would be happy.

WHY HE FAVORS HUGHES.

Theodore Roosevelt is hand
ing out sledge hammer blows
against President Wilson, and
making a powerful argument in
favor of Charles E. Hughes.
Colonel Roosevelt is still one of
the great men of this country.
His judgment on the affairs of
state are worthy of careful con.
sideration, and there is probably
no man in the United States bet
ter able to Judge of the quail
fications of the two candidates
for the presidency than he.
Following is one of the principal
reasons why he is supporting Mr.
Hughes as stated in a recent
speech =
81 champion Mr.. Hughes as against
Mr.. Wilson because in every such
crisis Mr.. Wilson, by his public acts,
has shown that he will yield to fear,
that he will not yield to justice; where
as the public acts of Mr.. Hughes have
proved him to be incapable of yielding
in such crisis to any leaders whether
made by politicians, corporations or
labor leaders.

NOT ALL ONE SIDED.

In a recent issue the True
Northerner commented on the
utter disregard which some auto
mobile drivers seem to have for
the law which requires them to
use DINNERS on the lights when
meeting another machine on the
highway. We desire in this is
sue to call attention to the fact
that there is probably just as
much disregard for the law on
the part of drivers of horses as
there is on the part of drivers of
automobiles. Have you ever
driven in a car, and come up be-
hind horse and buggy in some
narrow sandy place in the high
way, and had the driver of the
horse and buggy turn a deaf ear
to the honk honk of your horn ?
If so you have probably said
some things under your breath

OPPOSE HOME RULE.

The action of the board of
supervisors last week in passing
resolutions condemning the So
called Home Rule amendment
should have weight with the
voters of the county at large.
The members of the board are
in position to know the effects
Of the amendment should it be-
come a part of the constitution
of the state. They have obser-
we'd this county under local OPP
ton for the past twenty-five
years, and have had occasion to
compare the expense bills again
st the county during that time,
with those of adjoining counties
where saloons were in operation.
The board are to man opposed
to saloons in any part Of this OF
any other county, and they also
realize that should the Home
Rule amendment become a part
Of the constitution, and the town
ship become a unit for the regu-
lation of the liquor traffic in
stead Of the county as at present
that there would be several town
ships in the county that might
have the open saloon. They
are to be congratulated on their
stand taken in this matter, and
the resolutions should be care
fully read and considered by
every voter in the county.
Following are the resolutions
in full They were introduced
by Supervisor Coleman of Law
ton, seconded by Supervisor
Phillips of Arlington and endor-
sed unanimously by the board
Whereas-Van Buren, County was
the first county in Michigan to adopt
Local Option, and
Whereas-Van Buren, County has
been dry since May 1st, 1890, and
Whereas-The growth and wealth
of the county clearly demonstrates
the merits of the local option law
Therefore-Be it resolved that the
members of the board unqualifedly
condemn the proposed, so-called Home
Rule amendment to the constitution
which, if. adopted, would nullify the
present local option law and would
! throw the burden of costs on to the
county in prosecuting crime growing
out of the liquor traffic, while the cour
ty as whole would have no choice in
protecting itself against it.

JUDGE YAPLE FOR HUGHES

The announcement that Judge
Yaple will support Hughes for
president comes as a great sur
prise to both democrats and re-
publicans alike. Judge Yaple is
one of the most eminent jurists
in the state, and he has long
been one of the staunch wheel
Horses" of the democratic party
His decision will be a distinct
blow to democracy in Michigan,
and likewise a tower of strength
to republicanism. There is not
much sentiment about Judge
Yaple and very little of party
loyalty. He is supporting
Hughes because he is satisfied
that he is a better man for Pres
ident than Mr.. Wilson. Judge
Yaple has not come to this con-
clusion either hastily OF impul-
sively, because he is not that
kind of a man. He has weighed
the matter carefully with a
trained judicial mind. He is
satisfied that he is right, and
has the backbone to say so.
His decision should be an object
lesson to any young man who is
about to cast his first ballot or
to any voter who is tottering on
"Top of the Fence" When
Judge Yaple says that Hughes
is the best man for president it
means something.

CYRUS p. PRESCOTT.

Cyrus p Trescott was born in
Conerus, N. Y. on October 10Th, 1874
and died in Hubbard Minnesota Oct
ODER 18th, 1916, aged seventy-one
years, eleven months and twenty-siX
days.
He was married to Sophrona A.
Pike on February 23rd, 1871 at
Plainfeld, Bremen County, Iowa. To
this happy union were born four
children, two dying in infancy. Mrs.
l.. l.. Shaus of Hubbard, Mimi, and
j. f. Prescott of Hammond, Indiana
who with their bereaved mother
survive. He also leaves one grand
son to whom he was devotedly attach
ed, four brothers and two sisters and
an aged uncle A. bennington of
Geneso N. Y. besides many other rela-
tives to mourn his loss. Short funer-
al services were held at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Shares Sunday p. m.
conducted by Mr.. and Mrs. Stephens.
Mrs. Shares left with the remains
Monday morning for Plainfeld, Iowa
where funeral services were held Tues
day p. m. and he was buried in the
family lot at that place. Mrs. Tres
colt was unable to accompany the
remains.
He was converted and united with
the M. f. church at Plainfield in July
1874. For many years he was mem
Der of the official board, Sunday
school superintendent, Class leader
and member of choir.
In business he was man of abso-
lutte integrity in whose good Judge
ment and reliability of character
every one had the utmost confidence,
who stood unflinching for what he
thought to be right He was inter-
ested and connected with every tenn
perance movement and was a man of
answering honesty in every rela-
ton of life and his straight forward
and considerate manner gave him the
confidence of all who knew him. He
was true christian and his life was
moral and religious magnet, in his
devoted family, among his neighbors
and the community in which he lived.

ABSURD ARGUMENTS.

One of the most absurd argu-
ments used by the democrats in
the present campaign, is that
president Wilson has kept us
out of war;. Absurdas it is, it is
the one great argument that is
being urged on every hand.
Nicholas Murray Butler writing
for the Chicago Daily News says
perhaps the most absurd state
ment that has been made in connect
ion with this canvass is that President
Wilson has kept the United States out
of the European war. He has done
nothing of the sort. We have been
kept out of the European war while
Mr.. Wilson was president, but his
official acts have had little to do with
it. We could not get into the Euro
pean war on our own initiative if we
wanted to, because we have nothing
to go in with. We are not in a pos
ition to wage war on anybody. On
the other hand, no European nation
would at the present juncture for an
instant contemplate war with us. The
United States is the one source of
supply for food, clothing and munit-
ions which is large enough and suffic-
iently removed from the European
conflict to be depended upon"
