cles and In State Grange activities.
whose tireiess fighting in the interests
OF the farmer inspired former State
Senator James A. Murtha, of Detroit,
to christen him: THE Untamed Bear
cat from Cheboygan," comes down
out OF the clouds OF high finance and
intricate tax data in discussing the
proposed good roads amendment to be
voted upon April and draws a home
ly and striking parallel for his farmer
friends to consider. Senator Baker
likens the proposition to the purchase
Of a photograph. He says:
"The proponents Of the good roads
amendment argue that our main mar
ket roads should be built now and
built by the state and nation and paid
for on the installment plan, thus plac-
ing the state, in the matter of the ex-
penditure necessary to rapid highway
development In the same position as

relieves the situation and in each case,
