The repúblicas oí the state are catching oin to the fact that hO is not only the most avaiiable but one of the most deservüig men in the state for the place. He has cool judffmeint, a head full oí brains, and has alwajTs been a great voite getter.

Froim 1859 to 1874 Judge Walker was a lecturer in the law dt-partmcnt, formiing with Judgef Cooley and Campbell the ori-mal faoulty of that department, and is well lcao'wn in Aan Arbar. He was a brothier of Bdward C. AValker, :vho dried a sliort tim sinoe. Congreswnnm Aiery in spealdng a.bout tlie üesire to gerryma.nder the congressáonal districts in the interest oí this or th,at cangressma.11, wrote these sensible worde to a íriend re eently : "The Micliig-an legisilature would do well ito stop 'nionkeying wibh tlie congres?ional dlstricte. We have 12 now that are ropublican un der a democratie apportionment. We oan't get a.ny more iinder a republi can appoa-bioinment, Better let wel enougli alone." Here is aaother benefit derived from the democratie ta.rilf law : Under the reduced American tariff on still wines, the Germán exports for the laat ciuartr of 1894 were larger than those in the last quairteir oí 1893 ly 3,300 cases, amd 180,000 gallons in cask?. You see a low tariff brtdgs forelgn trade. What matters it that these extra cases of wtne liave to 1e paid tor im igood American gold ? Isn't our toreign trade increased ? Hon. Roger W. Bntterfield is serving bis first term as Regent, and as he has shown great interest in the University he should receive a renomination. He is in able lawyer with good business ideas- a valuable man on the board. As most of the regents are located in the eastern part of the state, it is just that the two selected at the convention next week shall be frotn tlie western side. This is particnlarly trne considering that the justice of the supreme court will undonbtedly be chosen from the eastern side. Butterfield and Hackley will be a good ticket for Regents, to run, with Kinne for Justice. The repubücans of AVashtenaw oounty will step mto the fray on the firat oí April next with entire confidence of victory. Tliey have placed upen thetr ticket one of the finest yoixiig men any party can present for the suffrages ai the psople of this county for Coramissioner of Schools. He is a yo'Uing man wluo has earned hls oivn way in the Avorld, and has educated luiimself entirely by nis wvu efforts. He will anake a the state, and who will impart a spirit of push. and eoier-gy to ouir schools tha-t wlll them up to a still higirer staaidard of efficiency. It is of such material as he that successf ui mn 'in all walks of lif & are inado. A new religión is epreading over the Avorld. Not through a new sect, but in all eects. It is a g-entle flood that is islowly but surely breakiii}? down the reefs of cruel dogmas. It is the religión that teaches simple, natural goodness and nothing more. It teaches that eomewhere there is perfectxm and omnipotence. It taches the won-snip of thi great soul of taie uni-ver&e. It teaches the mastery of self in a patiënt pursuit of excellence. It teaches a love of mankind that üomprelit'ii(l all other virtudes. It regards pnayer ajid coofeesioin, bapiblam and pennanco, alms and sacrifice, foinns and doctrines as insig-nilicant and of nu consequence. 'lhe anly eeeentlala are the worship of God, the subjugation. of self and the service of l'ioneer Press.
