the death of our friend G.. O. Mercer.
! We believe we are correct when we
say he was the only all around news
paper man who ever put out a paper
| in Morgan-editor, type setter, fore
man, printer. He was successful IN
buying run down papers, building
them up, then selling out and going
on to a new field. This brings to
our mind evenings we spent in the
Jos. Bernhard furniture store, with
the Mercer boys, B. F. Dutton and
Mr.. Bernhard. At these gatherings
| subjects education, law and always
the funny side, showed up. What a
change has taken place in Chester

Jury Must Find
When Man Died

WILSON, April Ia. (UP).-A
federal court jury here will be
called upon to decide the exact
instant Of the death Of Claude
Demers, of Wilson, who was
killed in an automobile accident
two years ago. ,.,.-.. ..
"A double indemnity clause in a
$4,000 insurance policy held by
Demers caused the dispute. The
insurance company, after Demers'
body was found in his wrecked
automobile, claimed their investi-
CATION showed he died of a heart
attack, causing the accident, and
refused to pay the $4,000 dou-
bic benefit. Instead they forward
ed a check for $4,000 with the
claim that Dcmers had died of
natural causes n few seconds be-
fore the accident which wrecked
the car.
Demers' widow claimed that
her husbands death was caused
by the accident and filed suit for
the additional $4,000. First fed
eral court trial of the case result
ed in a victory in her favor, but
Judge |. NJ. Meekins set the ver-
dict aside and ordered retrial
to determine the exact moment
of Demers' death.

MY COUNTRY
OF THEE
By S. J. FULLWOOD
MICHIGAN

Michigan is located in the north
central group of states in these
United States. II is divided into
two parts by Lake Michigan. at
is the second largest state east of
the Mississippi river, Georgia be-
ing the largest" Michigan is
bounded on the north by Lake
Superior; on the east by Lake
Huron, Ontario, Canada, and
Lake Erie: on the south by Wis
consin, Indiana and Ohio: and on
the west by Lake Michigan. The
topography of Michigan is for the
most part level, having a rugged
contour to the north of the pc
ninsular part of the state; and is
sandy. Northern Michigan was
once covered with dense forests,
but in later years has been large
" denuded by lumber interests.
Effort is being made by the state
and nation TO re-forest this great
state.
The seal for the state of Mich
igan is one and thrce-quarterS
inches in diameter. 1t has 4 prong
ed edge. Between the inner and
outer circle is written "The Great
Seal of the State of Michigan
At the bottom of this circle we
find "A. d. MDCCCXXXV." In
the center we find coat Of arms
described thusly: At the top is
scroll with the Latin words "E
PluribuS Unum' upon it, which
means in English From many,
one" Below the scroll is seen the
Great American Eagle. The coat
of arms is illustrated by a tablet
upon which at the top the word
"Tuebor" appears. This word
means, 81 will defend" On the
tablet or plaque is seen in the
distance the sun midway over the
horizon: the figure of man with
a staff in one hand and the 9TH
er hand raised in salute. On
each side of the tablet is the fig
ure of buck, each with its fore
paws on the top of the tablet.
Below the tablet is another scroll
upon which is written, in Latin,
Isl Quaeris Peninsulam Amoe-
nam Circumspice"- translated in
to English reads, eff you seek Q
pleasant peninsula, look about
YOU" THE present seal of the

SPENDING
IS UNDER fire
Declares Nation Now on
Path Toward Disastrous !
Initiation

WASHINGTON, April II.
(CP).-HouSe Minority Leader
Bertrand H. Smell Monday night
accused the government of spend
ing an average of S3,250,000 a
week more than it collects in rev.
enues and warned that this policy
is moving the nation "inexorably
along the path toward q disastr-
GUS initiation
His charge, based on an analys-
is Of treasury figures, was made
on the eve of a recaSting of the
federal budget by President
Roosevelt. The chief executive is
expected to send to congress an
up-to-the-minute report on the
governments fiscal condition to-
day when he asks for money to IL
nance relief during the 1888
fiscal year.
While Smell aSSailcd federal
spending, President William
Green of the American Fedora
ton of labor cautioned against
sharp curtailment of the govern
mcnt'S work-relief activities.
Green said in a statement that
works program TO embrace 3.OOO.-
900 unemployed is the least tE\s
can provide adequately for those
in need.
He listed the number of idle to-
day at 9,722,0O0 and estimated
that an average of 100000
would be unemployed during the
1888 fiscal year despite increased
business activity. Federation fig
urcs show that WPA and other
federal projects provided work
for 2,939,O0O persons in 'Fcbru-
AIRY.
At the same time. Secretary OF
Labor Francis Perkins reported
that the L. :. employment service
helped 100000 persons get jobs
during the two years ending last
June 30. Nearly two-thirdS of the
Job placements were in connection
with the federal public works and
relief program.

Two decades faces Governor Clyde

| university it also has the oldest
| agricultural college in the nation.
Michigan was also the first state
west of the Alleghanies to cstab-
lish a state normal school. Michi-
CANS was the first university to
admit women students" There
are eight institutions Of higher
learning having four year college
courses, which arc supported by
the state. There are nine junior
colleges in Michigan. Twenty
counties have what are called
county normal schools. Twenty
three other institutions of higher
learning are found in the state,
which are supported by non-pub-
lie funds. Michigan has state
schools for the crippled, the deaf,
the blind and epileptic children,
Michigan was admitted to the
union on January 26, 1887. The
history of Michigan in its early
DAYS closely parallels the history
of early American pioneers. Lum-
Der was the major industry IN
early Michigan life.
To the tourist, Michigan offers
many places of interest. All
along the shore line Of the Great
Lakes, as well as among the 5000
other lakes within its borders, rec
reation facilities abound. Hunting
and fishing are popular sports IN
Michigan. A journey to that state
should not be completed without
having first seen the great Am
bassador bride at Detroit which
connects the two great countries,
United States and Canada; and a
visit to Northern Michigan to the
Straits of Mackanac.
Two important laws in Michi-
gan should be mentioned here. In
the first place Michigan does not
have a law providing for capital
punishment. Fourth offenders OF
anv crime arc sentenced to life
imprisonment. also. The second
major law, and one which other
states would do well to copy, has
to do with the sterilization OF all
criminal defective and imbcciics.
/ This law is operative only through
court DEGREES, however. $780,.
