With thi closing down of the lid in
Louisville, Ky., on Sunday last, so that
nont of the southern gentlemen could get
"a little red, sah," the truth becomes more
apparent that the days of the open saloons
are numbered. Public spirit and the peo
ple in general are becoming opposed to its
continuance.
The banquet at Ionia Tuesday evening
In honor of Wm. Alden Smith, candidate
for United States senator, is only another
straw indicative of the love and admiration
borne by the republicans of Ionia county
for their chosen representative. And the
love and admiration is not borne by the
fifth district alone. His prowess is far
reaching and could the people choose he
would surely be the successor to that
grand old statesman, Russell A. Alger.
Ur from New York on that fatal day,
when McKinley cold in death did lay, there
a man of power and might, who in the
day time and the night, for justice stood,
on western soil, in southern clime. At
home, abroad, and all the time, in north
and south, in east and west, standing al
ways for the best, as good men should
Brave, fearlesn, noble Roosevelt, thy pow
er for right is truly felt. N6 tyrants hand
shall e'er feel free to trifle with monopoly,
when thou art near. And so with trusts,
whose mighty power, have menaced us
from hour to hour. Thy hand alone should
seal thy fate, and banish them from every
state. The way is clear.
One thino in the application of the law
at primary of June 12 demands careful
consideration. Besides the vote on the
acceptance of the method, and the vote
for candidates for governor and lieuten
ant COvernnr ll.ru n(r i
called upon to vote for delegates to the
county convention which will choose dele
gates to the state convention to nominate
who uwier state officers anu to aisirici
conventions whese candidates are not
nominated by method. His ticket will
contain blank lines for the number of del
egates assigned to his precinct, and he
must write in the names; and many will
hardly be prepared to do that without
previous consultation. So, some informal
caucusing preliminary to that will proba
bly be found found necessary, in order
that the voter may understand who are
willing to be delegates, and who would
accaptably represent him as such. It
would certainly seem desirable if in some
way the voter could be informed as to
what candidates or what issue, on which
sentiment had divided, would be favored
by a vote for this or that proposed delegate.
There is one thing apparent in the great
and wonderful management of the uni
verse, and that is the fact that, no matter
what people may think, the creator of all
is opposed to Sunday ball games. During
the progress of a ball game near Mobile,
Ala., on Sunday last, a bolt of lightning
struck in the midst of a number of base
ball enthusiasts, killing five persons at
once and seriously injuring twenty-five
others. "Remember the Sabbath day to
keep it holy,' is seemingly as important to
day as in mosaic times.
