Apologies are due because of the
fact of paid political announcement
creeping into the editorial column of
The Express last week. 1t was an
open letter to the public by Emory
Townsend, of Saginaw, bought and
paid for, and appeared in the editorial
column through rank mistake. 1t
not only failed to express the senti-
ments of this paper, but was directly
the opposite. Apologies are offered in
two ways, first because of an article
marked "adv." under the head that is
our personal property and cannot be
knowingly besmirched by "boughten'
opinions, and secondly in the insult
it offered to our good friend and wor-
thy representative in congress from
this district, Hon. Joseph w. Ford
ney.
GAS long as he wants it" is the sen-
timent given in an article appearing
recently in the Gratiot County Herald,
which refers to Cong. Fordney's posi-
ton, and has the endorsement of The
Express. This article is reproduced in
The Express this week. Cong. Ford
ney is Michigan's strongest represen-
tative in the house, from the viewpoint
of a large majority of his constituents,
and this fact will always be kept up
permost. He has been ready and will
ing at all times to help one and all
of those he represents, no matter what
their creed or policies, and the debt
we owe him is not to be cheapened by
a "paid" political anpouncement-no
if we know 1.-THE Durand Express.

CHANCE TO CONTINUE BIG
WORK FOR THE DIS
TRICT AND COUNTRY

(From the Gratiot County Herald
Emory Townsend of Saginaw an
nounces that he is candidate for
nomination for congressman in this,
the eighth district, against Hon. JOS
eph w. Fordney- He things that Mr..
Fordney should get out of the way
and make room for him, and issues a
challenge to Mr.. Fordney to meet
him in debate on the subject of Joe's
qualifications, To an onlooker, it
would seem as if Emory had picked
out pretty extensive subject. Mr..
Townsend may be good man. There
are doubtless many other good men
who like Barkis would be willing.
But the Hehald desires to register the
conviction here and now that as long
as Joe Fordney will consent to serve
as congressman no other man can
render the district, the state or the
nation as signal and effective service
as he. Eua1
While nothing has heretofore been
said about it, is it proper to announce
in this connection that two or three
weeks ago Mr.. Fordney stated in an
interview in reference to u. S. SEN
atorship that he had no ambition in
this direction but if he returned to
Washington desired to continue in his
present place.
1t should be remembered that while
but little is being said about politics,
this is campaign year and there will
be good prospect of republican con-
troll of the House. In this event Mr..
Fordney would undoubtedly be the
chairman of the powerful Ways and
Means committee, and have a large
voice in shaping legislation. A new
man, however able, would have to
start at the bottom and for years to
come would be practically without in
fiuence. He would neither know the
members of the House nor be able to
impress upon them his own ideas
however good. He would be politi-
cal and practically nonentity for two
or three years at least. The eighth
district could not more surely relegate
itself to political oblivion than to fail
to call again to their service the
man who above all others in Michigan
through all his years Of service has
stood unfinchingly as the representa-
tive of the farmer, the manufacturer,
the laborer, the producer and the con-
sumner.
In this hour of his country's peril
he has by voice and vote stood loyalty
by the government and like his party
supported every measure which Pres
ident Wilson said was needed for win
ming the war. The country needs Joe
Fordney. 1t is up to the eighth dis
trict to renominate and reflect him.
And this, the Herald believes it will
do.

HELP WIN THE WAR

Any resident of Michigan, who has
knowledge Of the presence of a case
of communicable disease and who
fails to report to the local health au-
thorities, as the law requires, may be
a real enemy to the country. The
Division Surgeon has impressed the
State Board of Health with the neces-
sity for keeping the communicable dis
eases under strict control, now that we
are at war. Attention has been d.
rected more particularly to the minor
diseases, such as mumps, measles,
scarlet fever, German measles, etc.,
they being regarded as minor ailments,
and thousands Of cases go unreported
every year. Yet these are classed
among the most dangerous communi-
cable diseases and single case, not
properly restricted may be the cause of
an outbreak that would reduce great
ly the efficiency of the men who may
soon go to the front, and to bring even
one Of these diseases into our training
camps might cause exceedingly disas-
trous results.
The law requires physicians and
citizens to supply the information and
unless it is done the State Board of
Health is unable to know where to di-
rect its efforts for disease control.
Physicians and citizens who know of
the presence Of any Of these diseases
should report at once to the Health
officer in the jurisdiction in which the

Dc mean that he is going to be nominated next
Tuesday, Weare very hopeful of that He deserves to be
nominated BY all the logic of the situation he ought to
be. He will be ii his felow-ctzens in the Republican
party governed by considerations Of and proper
community pride and state interest
But he is a winner whether he is nominated or not. He
has in the statement of his case The argument
is all on his side His is nvncibe We appeal to any
impartial farnnded jury Of if there is any course
for them but to render a unanimous verdict for Mr.

His opponent Mr.. Root, has come out at last. 1t
wasn't statement in the Banner. Oh no. 1t wasn't any
noise like 1t anonymous attack sent
through the naiskept back till the last minute and then
scattered the town and county Instead of replying
in honorable fashion to Mr. Paynes open letter. admitting
that he had done him injustice, he persists III the mis-
representation Of the facts and sends out his unsigned cir
cuar. That's pretty low depth of the meanes kind of
politics, say. There's quality of the true winner
there--office no office
We know who Mr.. Roofs friends and hackers
are! We know where he stands
Md say, Mr.. Payne wins-in straight forward

and moral issue
And we think he will win the nomination. This Com
mittee is satisfied with its work and its candidate.

UNION FACTORY GOBBLED
BY TRUST.

Another union tobacco factory has
been absorbed by the trust, and the
little blue label is now missing from
all packages containing London Sports
and Champagne Cocktail cigarettes.
The Faux Tobacco Of New York has
always employed union Tobacco
Workers under conditions, and had
built up a large trade among the
members of organized labor. This
patronage was making serious in
roads on the business of the American
Tobacco company, with the result
that the Faulk company was pur-
chased. Just as the rank growth of
weeds will destroy the valuable
growth in the field, so the taking
over of a union factory by the
American Tobacco company chokes
the little blue label. All union men
are advised that the two brands of
cigarettes referred to no longer carry
the union label.
There is a union cigarette-Epicure
and it is suggested that this brand
be given a trial
