Noiseless BenefactiOn

The Michigan Sunday-school workers
1000 strong, who have filed the Arcadis
and several nearby churches with their
foregatAerings and conferences the past
three days, have been so unobtrusive as
to be almost unn0ticed-
This is characteristic Of the consecrat-

day trinity Of Lords day enticements-
the Sunday newspaper, the sunday

Theirs is en- unheralded service. Only
as this Christian nurture finds fruition n
the God-serving heroism Of the graou-
ates Of the Sundsy-school in spiritual en-
terprises, in business, in civic betterment
or upon the battlefield is It's unshowy
fidelity disclosed
We.see it in the redemption Of Michigan
from rum rule; in the rising standard Of
municipal government; in the worldwide
passion for democracy Of righteousness
in the moral safeguards thrown around
the soldiery of the nation.
Known by its fruits, the Sunday-school
In Michigan stands approved. A canton

the battle line such seasoned generals as
E. X. Warren, Of Three Oaks, Prof. Good

We Hope the Candidate
Does Not Share the View
Of the Political Oracles

The political wiseacres are busy WITH
the figures of Tuesdays local election.
Figures which to you merely NEAR
that such a measure carried or was de
feated, mean more to these oracles.
For instance:
A river precinct returned majority
in favor of smaller common council.
The last thing expected by any alder
man fighting to hold his job against a
tremendous public sentiment that the
city would be best served with him
eliminated, was that any river precinct
would turn on him in his dark hour
and help to Gust him out and into obliv-
ion.
Could any decent citizen of Detroit ask
for any better reason for discarding the
old and cumbersome system of ward rep
resentation than that in its last hours
it turned to the docks and the dockwal-
lopers to save itself?
Can any decent citizen regret having
voted that system out of existence, now
that he knows it was repudiated even by
the dockwallopers?
The election Of a mayor Of Detroit APP
proaches.
An alderman who is a candidate for the
Republican nomination for mayor is put
down now by the wiseacre-analyzers Of
the returns as having a slim chance in
the primaries.
They figure that to be the case be-
cause they see this candidates chances
reduced so per cent by a 30 per cent re-
duction in the aldermen who had been
whooping it up for their colleague.
What they really mean is, that the
machine strength of the common council
has been cut exactly in half.
And that is exactly the reason The
Times put forth, why the people Of De
troit should vote in favor of smaller
council-thereby placing Themselves 50
per cent nearer real representative gov
eminent
The Times is not discussing the candi.
dacy of the alderman who aspires to be
mayor.
IL Is taking no position in the matter
either against or for his candidacy. but
we trust, for HIS sake, that he himself
is not dismayed by this loss of support
in the river districts
We hope this because the time ha
gone by when the Office of mayor Of
