formative but misleading.
Because 10 tells half truths which
are worse than whole lies. Because
the Home Rule amendment, for the
express purpose Of deceiylng fair
minded electors into voting for some
thing they don't want, was deliberate
ly made complex, equlyOcal and con-
fusisg.
Because the Home Rule amendment
Is designed 10 defeat the will of the
majority OF the people OF this state.
For the reason that II the prohibition
and Home Rule amendments both car
ry the latter is so worded as TO take
precedence of the former.
Because Home Rule does not mean
that we shall rule at home but be
ruled from Che home Of organized
liquOr-DetrOit.
Because / wont contribute In any
degree ID the deyilish plot of the rot
ten politlciass and saloon keepers OF
Detroit TO run this city and all the
other cities, towns and townships OF
the entire state.
Because l wont be party TO help
Ing Detroit with her 1900 licensed sa-
looms and her 1,i0O blind pigs, TO make
A. counties in this state, which their
people have voted dry, wet.
Because II prohibition does not car
ry and Home Rule or local option by
municipalities does carry, all the
counties that are now dry will be au-
tomatically wet until they vote again
nj some remote election.
I refuse TO assist In spreading the
pernicious doctrine Of Home Rule, be.
cause / believe, with the Adrian Tele-
gram, that "TO LET ORGANIZED

Worth Careful Thought

Do you read the label to know whether
your baking powder is made from cream
of tartar or, on the other hand, from alum
or phosphate
Royal Baking Powder is made from
cream of tartar, derived from grapes, and
adds to the food only wholesome qualities.
Other baking powders contain alum or
phosphate, both of mineral origin, and
used as substitutes for cream of tartar
because Of their cheapness.
Never sacrifice quality and healthful-
ness for low price.

vision there were II against the
amendment and 81 for it, so it went
into the bill. Later David J. Lewis,
known in the house as Parcel Post
Davy," rallied his forces in an attempt
to defeat the obnoxious amendment,
but it was too late. The reactiOnar-
les forced the fighting and by roll

GERMANS MAY SUE TO
Get American Goods

WASHINGTON. Sept. 19.-Reports
that German firms may go to court in
Germany with their complaints OF
non-delivery Of goods contracted for
in America. but held up by the allied
blockade. drew the suggestion from
officials here yesterday that such liti-
CATION might prove a commercial
sword that would cut both ways. 1t
was pointed out that American firms
might also have recourse to the courts
in cases Of breach OF continuing con
tracts, and that a series Of legal deci-
sions might greatly clarity the situ-
alton by establishing to what extent
war might be considered an adequate
defence in such suits.
Should the German courts con
fiscate American property because OF
alleged breach OF contracts. Il was
said that the State Department would
intervene automatically to prevent o.
right miscarriage OF Justice. Ameri-
can property interests In Germany
would be fully protected, officials de-
clared.
