Assembled in Reg ular Convention, that 1st. We ncotfolxe the unanimon endorsement of the National Admin ist ration by ad the People of the Nat ion, and of all political parties, with satisfaction; and recognize that a for mal endorsement by tins Convention could in no manner emphasize the re cord made oy our patriotic and fearless President, in his policy in punishing illegal combinations in restraint of trade and Interstate Comtmn-e: in punishing corruption in the Adminis tratiou of Public affairs, and iu his vigorous foreign policy. 2nd. We heartily and unanimously endorse the positive and fearless grasp of Affairs of State oy our Governor, The Hon,. FreilM. Warner, as evidenc ed by his Inauguaral Address and his First Message to the Legislature of the State, and his consistent acts so far in executing his official dutus. 3rd. We recognize In the Hon. Frederick W. Mayne, of Charleyolx, a clear, capable and learned lawyer, who as Circuit Judge for the l.'lth, Judicial Circuit, for the past six years, has made such a record upon the bench for legal ability, righteous judgments In the affairs wherein moral questions are involved, for courteous treatment of suitors iu his court, and respect to Counsel whether experienced or not: In his great care in seunv that exact leg' justice Is done to all parties bav ins lit Igatloa In his court: All tOSUCfl a degree and in a manner so inoster -tatious and unasming. as to at once inspire the confidence of the Public, and disarm tbnee who before he had oeen tried with one term as Judge were his tIMcs. and the repuolicans of Charlevoix County again recommend him to the electors of this Circuit, as their oandidate for Judicial Honors, with supreme confidence in ids patri otism, iotegrity and abilitv.

The number of committees of the two houses that have been engaged the past week in visiting t lit prisons, re formatories, homes and schools of the state, number more than forty, with a total membership of nearly two hund red. So it Is evident that when they were all out there could not be left of the one hundred and forty members of the two houses enough even to call for the regular order, and aome of them have had a harder week s work than they have while in session here. We should be glad that the localities have treated them well, ano we need not call it a "junket. ,( nor in anv wise unseemly or unsuitable on either side that they were entertained at dinner bv the people of Ypsilant l. or Marque tte, or Houghton, or by the Soldiers' Home or the Agricultural College. In partaking of their nourishment at the Agricultural College, the com mittees on that institution were able to "sample the goods' in a sense not in the nature of the case practicable for the committees upon most of the other state institutions, for the ele gant banquet was in its several courses and In its entirety a specimen product of the school. It was prepand and served hy the young ladies of the cook ing clashes, and the agricultural and horticultural departments were the sources of such of the supplies as came within their scope. The college was f -rty yeara old before it offered a de partment for women, and iu the eiifht years since then the institut ion lias experienced its most rapid growth and its most abundant prosperity. The largest of the fifty odd build inirs that adorn the campus, erected rive years atfo, is for their accommodat ion, in eluding both class rooms and dormit ories, and the class rot ms inciude kit chens and dining rooms, sewing rooms and laundry, manual training in wood work and physical training in gymn asium, art and home decoration. Governor Warner's appointment of J. W. McKone of Albion to the vacan cyen the state board ol education. In place of P, W Keliey, elected superintend-nt. is only for the brief period until the April elect ion; but it gives him an advantageous position in the canva-s for the eleetion. He gradual ed from the Ypsilantl Normal seven teen ye;r ago, and has been rea(blng ever since; and last December he was elected president of the state teachers' association. There had been introduced in the senate, up to the adjournment January 2(). eighty -elfltt bills, and In the house one hundred and sixty one. Two years ago the adjot rnment for the recess was a week Ister, but the senate at that slate had only eiyhty-Hix bills, and the house two hundred and ninety six, notwithstanding the large proportion of skeleton bills then intro duced only for titles, of which now there are none. Cling To The Farm. "Besolved, That city life is prefer able to country life" was a popular subject for debates in the da s of little red school hounes and when lie talent was equally balanced, and the judges were fair, the decisions were uettMllJ In favor of the affirmative. Under like conditions today the negative side should win. Farmers. Michigan farmers rtptc1 ally, their wies. sods ano daughter, certainly have reasons for being quite satisfied with their surroundings now adays They have had, ahd continue to have, their share of the prosperity that the Canutes has enjoyed in the past few years. They have received much better returns for their labor than formerly, the Increase being much larger, proportions ely. than the rise in the price of fsctory products, the profits in trade or in the wages of city workiugmen or woman. Farmers have not only fared better than city people mi a financial war In re ant years, but they have been more benefited by the general progress of the couutrv. There has been little im provements In the comforts and con venienees enjoyed by city people in the pat quarter of a century, but the farmts now have sdvsntages that they hardly dreamed of tweutv-Qve years go. With interurban railroads, rural nail carriers and telephones, millions of farmers now enjoy all the advant ages of life in i he country and many of the pleasures found in the cities and villages. With little more Inconvenience than the residents of the cities many of . them can go to city sehoois, churches I or thstsrs, snd by the use of their! 'plmues and daily delivery of mail they j can keep up with the world In the mat ter of news and general information. Twenty -live years ago the city man, even if lie worked for wages, was sup posed to have a much eader life than the farm hand or flnfl nwner. Now, with Improved machinery, better met hods and more of the romforts of life for the country people the conditions are reversed. The forty-acre farmer off today does less work, has less csre and worry, has more leisure, is reslly more independ ent and should be happier than the average business or professional man in the city. Surely therein no chance for argu ment on the old school house debating quest ion. Therefore, wise is the boy or girl who sticks to the farm. Mounting Board.
