bridge Colby, progressive republican
to the vacancy of secretary of state
caused by the resignation Of Robert
Lansing. Mr.. Colby was campaign
manager for Roosevelt in 1912, but
campaigned for Wilson in 1916. Pres

that he will be roundly criticized by
the same folks as playing politics fol

Republicans Relying On Break
Among Democrats To Sc
cure Needed Votes.
81 VOTES ARE NEEDED
Assertions Is Made That 20 Democrats
Are Ready To Quit Wilson Lead
and Take Reservation Pro-
gram As It Is.

Washington.-Poss Of sub
stantial break in the Democratic Peace
treaty ranks in the Senate impelled
influential Democratic senators to
move for a caucus to discuss a pos
sible change in party policy, and re-
vived the hopes of the Republicans
that the treaty might yet be ratified
with the Republican reservations
adopted at the last session of Con-
gress.
On. the Republican side it was as
serted that the % Democrats, only a
few short of the number required to
insure ratification, had signified a
willingness to quit the lead of Presi-
dent Wilson and take the Republican
reservation program as it is.
Dissatisfaction May Be Barred.
The movement for a Democratic
caucus may bring into the open the
dissatisfaction that has smouldered in
some Democratic quarters since the
President sent his letter to the caucus
of November 10, asking that the sena-
tors of his party vote against ratifi-
cation on the basis of the Republican
reservations. The seven senators who
disregarded his advice have been &C.
tive constantly in their effort to dis
suade others from the stand then
. taken.
But among both Democrats and Re-
publicans it is realized that the en-
deavor to break down Democratic re-
sistance still has a long way to 60
! If it is to succeed. Sixty-four votes
. are required to ratify the treaty, and
although "a Republicans voted for rat
ification in November, the party lead
ers are sure now of the support of
only 80. That leaves "a to be deliver
ed by the Democrats.
; In the belief that time is fighting on
their side, the plan of the Republican
leaders is to first clear away collateral
issues of the treaty disagreement
when the subject comes again before
the Senate. The next reservation to
be considered in the revision being un-
dertaken on the Senate floor is the
troublesome qualification of Article
10.

The organization starts out with
about twenty MEMBERSHIP majority
of whom are old-tme band men-busi-
ness men OF our city who, in order to
give our city good Band are willing
to devote a part OF their time each
week to its upbuilding There are also
a number OF our younger men lined up
who have in them the making OF good
bandsmen.
We understand the organization has
not, at present, suitable "home" for
weekly practices, and our citizens
should provide this at once and en-
courage the organization in every way
possible.

BOARD OF TRADE NOTES.

JOS. Nemecek states that he will hav e
a crew OF men on the road at Chestonia
next Monday and that the work will
continue without interruption until the
road is completed.
w. II. Sloan is in Detroit this week
attending the Great Lakes Waterways
Meeting as Delegate OF the Board OF
Trade. The purpose of this meeting is
to create a demand sufficiently i'm
pressive TO stir Uncle Sam to unite
with Canada iu opening channel from
the Great Lakes to the ocean. This will
enable ocean faring vessels to enter
the ports on the Great Lakes and will
greatly accelerate the commerce of the
cities located thereon. Needless to say
New York, Boston, and the effete East
oppose this project with a deathlike
struggle for it will greatly curtail the
trade of that section and correspond
ingly enhance the trade of this region.
Hence it is necessary to bring some in
fluence to bear on Congress and the
big gathering in Detroit is for this
specific purpose.
The big signs to be placed at Alba
and Mancelona are being painted this
week and will be up as soon as the
road at Chestonia is completed
BY another week the plans for the
Big Dollar Day will be completed and
the greatest opportunity ever offered
patrons of East Jordan will be an
nounced.

LADIES ATTEND
BOARD OF TRADE
LUNCHEON

After waiting impatiently for some
time for an opportunity to realize even
mildly that they were members of the
East Jordan Board of Trade, the ladies
were admitted to the luncheon held at
The Inn last Wednesday evening They
displayed their appreciation of the
honor by attending in practically as
large number as the men. But i'm
addition to this they were so enthusias-
tic over the meeting that they volun-
teered to sell the tickets for the next
gathering and Mrs. Geo. Bell has this
in charge.
The decision OF the slogan committee
came up for approval and "East Jor-
dan, Let's Go" was given sanction as
the bona fide slogan which East Jordan
is going to live by. 1t is the slogan
that East Jordan is going TO move for
ward with and is moving forward with
for everybody is boosting in manner
that ought to warm the heart OF even
the gentleman who made the error OF
thinking this is dead town.
Mr.. Hartman displayed his perfected
models of collapsible bread boxes and
chicken crates and a committee was
appointed to study the possibilities OF
manufacturing these.
The ladies promised to sell a ticket
to every merchant in town for the next
meeting and SO the next one is to be
called The Merchants Meeting. The
topics for discussion will relate parti-
cularly to East Jordan merchants.
Every merchant in town should reserve
Wednesday, Aug. 4th, at once SO that
nothing can interfere with his being
present next time.

Harding was officially notified of his
nomination as the Republican candi-
date for the presidency. His speech
of acceptance is, in part. as follows !:
Chairman Lodge, Members of No
tification Committee, Members of Ma
tional Committee, Ladies and Gentle
men: The message which you have
formally conveyed brings to me a real
iZatiOn Of responsibility which Is not
underestimated. 1t Is a supreme test
to interpret the covenant of a great
political party, the activities of which
are so woven into the history of this
republic. and a very sacred and
and aspirations Of the many millions
whs adhere to that party. The party
platform has charted the way, yet,
somehow, we have come to expect
that Interpretation which voices the
faith Of nominees who must assume
specific tasks.
Let me be understood clearly from
the very beginning. / believe In party
sponsorship In government. l believe
In party government as distinguished
from personal government, individual,
dictatorial, autocratic or what not.
No man Is big enough to run this
great republic. There never has been
one. Such domination was never in
tended. Tranquility. stability, depend
ability-all are assured In party spon-
sorship, and we mean to renew the
assurances which were rended In the
cataclysmal war.
Our first commital Is the restora-
tion of representative popular govern
ment, under the Constitution, through
the agency Of the Republican party.
Our vision Includes more than a chief
