“It would be most unsafe to put a

METHODISTS EXPECTED TO
ELECT EIGHT BISHOPS
MINNEAPOLIS. Minn. May 13
Although the report of the Episcopal
committee to be made to the Metho
dist General Conference was not com
olete todoay. It was authentically
stated that five new Episcopal resi
dences would be recommended along
with the retirement of three of the
present bisop*. This will mean the
election by the conference of eight
i bishops
It is assured that Bishops Warren.
Moore ar.d Mclntyre will be recom
mended for retirement, although the
last named Is making a hard fight to
retain his place. The new residences
will be St. Ixnils. Los Angeles. Helena.
Pittsburgh and Kansas City. The re
pot t will be finished this afternoon
ard presented to the conference to
morrow. .
The question of who will fill the
eight places today was discussed by
the delegates. Those favored in the
discussion are Dr. D. G. Downey of
New York; Homer C. Stuntz of lowa.
q k Havighurst of Ohio. Frank Mc-
Connell of Indiana; Charles B. Mitch
ell of Illinois, and Charles Edward
loeke of California
The committee ou temporal econ
omy recommended that a com
mittee of four bishops, three minis
ters and eight laymen be appointed
to handle all church funds and to di
vide the money among the various
church boards. Much opposition is
anticipated when this recommenda
tion is taken up for consideration by
the conference.

An important change in one of the
oldest business firms in Detroit has
just taken place in the withdrawal
of Robert Kay from the firm of
Wright, Kay & Cos. Mr. Kav was
connected with the firm for 15 years,
starting as a salesman. Later he
took charge of the silver department,
and was made secretary and a mem
ber of the board of direct rs. It Is
said that Mr. Kay has made no plans
for the future. He has been in poor
health of late, and will probably
spend the summer at his home in the

I here rectus to be altogether too much secrecy about the affair* of
nn st private hanks, nnd there is a growing demand for state supervision
of these institutions as well as the institutions which do business under
a stale charter, in some states the private banks are already under such
supervision and there seems to be no logical reason why depositors in such
institutions should be afforded the same protection that is given to de
le.shots in ttiw institutions
And the depositors are not the only one* who benefit by the supervls'on
cf the state I'he owners of the banks who frequently cannot nay « lose

STEFS IN COMMITTEE
Aldermen Do Heap of Talking
But Take No Action
On Measure
"This is the only thing lef: to a
moribund administration, or, 1 might
tuy, to an administration on its last
legs," said Aid. John l odge. retel
ling to the city accountancy ordi
nance, before the council committee
ou ordinances, Monday morning. "1
would no tnoie have the conscience
to take the power of appointing «
city accountaut away troni tht mavoi
thnn I would to go out and kick u
newsboy.”
The committee laid the otdiuance
on *he table after various ways were
discussed whereby it might be im
proved and yet put the appointment
or u competitive basis.
' Th' office ought to be Abolished,”
said Aid. Keating.
This sentiment wus expressed oy a
number of members of the committee,
out no delimit action was taken
“How about putting the work ou
tlie coni roller's office?" asked Aid.
Ixjdge. it seems to me that is where
the work properly belongs"
"The office of city Accountant has
never amounted to much," saiu Aid.
Allan. "Some of the accountants have
made it a Joke, but Ed Bullock, the
present incumbent, has done more to
put it on a good basis than any one
else ’’
But. 1 don't believe in building up
an ordinance to protect him, ot keep
him in office," said lajdge.
"Bullock has -stated to me that '*f
1 consider the ordinance was drawn
to keep him in office 1 need not vote
for it," Allan remarked. "He can
make more than $2,200 a year doing
work for private corporations'
"He's taking up this Job as n side
line ” said Aid Garvey. "He Is doing
outside work, right now.”
“It’s the Impressiou of every one.
it seems, that this ordinance was
drafted to perpetuate Bullock in
office." said Lodge, who suggested that
the committee might call in the state
accountant for periodical Audits of the
various city departments.
Keating remonstrated against this
course, reminding the committee
the principle of “home rule
Aid. Garvey, who hud the ordinance
returned to the committee, said he
was willing to approve it if it were
amended so that all public account
ants could take the examinations for
the office, but this does not appeal to
Bullock s friends. If Bullock cannot
get the Job they do not care how the
ordinance is drafted.
Boiler Inspector McCabe, who has
been drawn into the controversy over
the ordinance had the following to say
about his c onnection with the dispute: i
A. E. Chambers, Bullock s assistant
came to the door of my office, Saturday
morning, and said: ‘Well. I'm going
to be the uext city accountant.’ He
has been in and out of my office back
biting at the other city officials. If
you would believe him, every official
la the city would be a crook. At last
I told him that If he were employed in
my department 1 would dismiss him.’*

One of the objects of education in

'citizens of the children. To be a good ;
j citizen the child must know sorae
'h:ng of civil government. Everyone
who has studied the elementary text
liooks in civil government knows how
hard It is to become interested in
them. And every teacher in the pub
lic and private schools knows how f
hard it is to teach civil government
in a way that Is satisfactory to both
teacher and pupil.
The new book. “The American
Government,” by Frederick J. Mas

civil government more like play time
:han study-hour. It is crammed from
cover to cover with just the sort of
information about the government
that every boy and girl In the coun
try wants to know and needs to know.
Yet the story is told so directly and
simply that It will hold the interest
of girls and boys. And there is In
formation for the teacher as well as
for ttle pupil.
Tin Times Is performing a public
service by putting this book within
the reach of the boys and girls of

ALIENISTS PUT RICHESON
THROUGH GRUELLING TEST
BOSTON, May 13 —Rev. C. V T
Richeson, Avis Linnell’a slayer, was
Again today submitted to a gruelling
test by Doctors Stedman, Frost and
Tuttle, in the sheriffs resiaence at

were similar to those to which the
minister murderer was subjected in
yesterday's nine-hour examination.
The three alienists showed signs

Jail today. Richeson showed none
Ho had slept well last night and af
ter a hearty breakfast this morning
walked cheerily from his cell to the
music robm In company with two
guards who attend him night and
day. . .
It is expected the reports of the
three alienists, with those of Doctors
Prince and Briggs will be thoroughly
gone over by Oov. Foss this e\entng.
On these reports will depend the gov
ernor's determination as to recom
mending leniency for Richeson to his
executive council which meets Wed
nesday. If the majority of the alien
ists say Richeson is sane, the ex-Bap
tist minister will die In the chair,
shortly after 12 o’clock next Sunday
night. . .
There is little likelihood Richeson
will be transferred to the death cel'
at Charlestown prison before Thurs
day morning. Fear of a nervou» col
lapse may prevent his removal before
Saturday evening. In the meantime,

State Politics
Alonzo J. Sherman has announced
his candidacy for the Republican nom
ination for state representative for
Tuscola county. In his announcement
he calls attention to the fact that his
name went before the people for the
same office four years ago. and says
that when he was beaten by a few
votes he tried to take his defeat good
naturedly. He declares that he ha3
always been a Republican and while
not an intense partisan lias endeavor
ed to support the regularly nominated
candidates of the Republican party.
Mr. Sherman has been a director of
the Tuscola .County Farmers' Mutual
Life insurance Cos. for a number of
years.
Sheriff Baylias of Sault Ste. Marie
is likely to be a candidate for the Re
publican nominatiou for state repre
sentative from Chippewa county, but
to the suggestion of his friends that
he declare his candidacy he has re
plied that he would not enter a cam
paign that would compel him to «acr;-
flee in any wav his official duties. His
term as sheriff expires Dec. 31 and if
he decides that he can become a can
didate without interfering with the
performance of his duties as sherifT
he will probably make the run for rep
resentative. He is expected to make
an announcement on the matter soon.

and Foss 36, uninstructed 104. There
will be 1092 delegates in the eonven

delegation from Michigan and says:
“The eyes of the country are now on
