Postmaster Oeneral Meyer, In his speech at Tremont temple today, re viewed the work of the Republican administration and pointed to the re forms brought about by the Repubb can party. He then referred to the purpose of the state convention and said in part: "The Republican party haif always met Issues squarely, endeavoring to solve problems by •guarding the 4w> tereats of the pedpje aud’m»W»fc& ress possible for each generation. "The Issue before the people this comtug autumn is not whether we shall return to the conditions of a few years ago of uncontrolled railroads and unrestricted trusts —because there will be and cun be no backward step —but whether the problems that con front us shall be worked out by the party of free silver, which means the depreciated dollar, the party that stands for government ownership of railroads aud its accompanying evils, with its stupendous Increase of gov ernment employes; the party of prom ise without fulfillment; the patty that believes in state justification rather than in federal; or whether theae questions shall be solved by the Re publican party, the party of experi ence, the party with definite purposes and successful record; the party that believes In federal supervision of railroads and securities; In the en forcement of laws on the statute books without favor. Problem to Decide. “This Is the problem the people must decide next November —which party,, under the leadership of the par ties as they are now, they will chose to work out their salvation; and we appeal to all upright and Independent citizens, whatever their party affilia tions In the past, to support in the present the one party which has both the announced purpose and the as sured power to correct evil* of which there is Just complaint while pre serving the good which it should be (Coatlaard ua Pace Tea.)

April 10.—Walter Welf man, in the Record-Herald, says: "Optimism is the prevailing note umong the big business men of Chicago—the men who have their fingers on the com mercial and financial pulse of the vest and of the entire country, and who are experts In reading aright its faintest Indications.

"We are now decidedly optimistic in this house," sstd J. Ogden Armour when aalied' for an expression of his views as to tha business situation and outlook. "Things are now mending. The corner was turned some time ago. Everything that happens from now on is likely to help the recovery and tend to bring better times. Up to now It may be true, that a good deal of the ground gained is sentimental rath er than actual; but this sentimental gain always accompanies or imme diately precedes actual recovery. We note on all sides a gradual, not a rapid recovery. Probably It Is better that the restoration of normal condi tions does not come too fast; it is the more likely to continue without Interruption or relapse. "It Is not only here in Chicago and the west that we fell this change," added Mr. Armour. “Down In New York recently I found everyone there feeling the same way."

CanA pau by the Wayne County Democratic club Thursday evening has stirred things up In the Democratic ranks. It seems to foretell a conflict to carry thfe caucuses which will elect the members of the county convention to select delegates to the state conven tion. Four years ago these caucuses were controlled absolutely by the “New Deal Democracy,” of which the leaders are Mayor Thompson, Judges Connolly and Phelan, Edwin Hender aon and others. ”1 think this indorsement points to a brilliant finish for the Club,” said P. J. M. Hally, named as one of the vice presidents of the organization, bat who did not attend the meeting. ”I feel that any Indorsement or action, for or against Mr. Campau, is a. mis take. This club was supposed to be organised for the whole party and not in the interest of any faction.” mDEBINTU GET THEIR FEET IN DM TROUGH COMMISSIONER HAARER DECIDES TO HAND OVER PATRONAGE, AND THERE WILL BE WEEKLY ALLOTMENT OF WORK TICKETS The aldermen have been made the arbiters of patronage in the depart ment of public works.

NEW YORK, April 10.—Acting un der a command which she said had been given to her by St. Joseph In a dream. Mrs. Telma Sardoul today, in the presence of her live children, at their home in West Twenty-slxth-st., gashed her husband, Salvatore, with a big bread knife deeply In the neck in what she declared to be an attempt to cut off bis head. The frenzied woman’s attack was preceded by elaborate preparations of a religious nature. The man was taken, apparently dying, to the New York hospital. The wife’s frenzied attack occurred in the presence of the couple's five small children, one of whom, Michael, II years old,. probably averted whtt would have been Instant death, by screaming and arousing his father, who thus had time to partly avoid a thrust of the knife aimed at his throat. Mrs. Sardonl was said to have been acting queerly since the birth of her young child two months ago. MICHIGAN 'PHONE CO.'S EARNINGS INCREASE FAST i GAIN IN GROSS RECEIPTS FOR 1907 IS 13 PER CENT—NEARLY $200,000 ADDED TO SURPLUS —PROSPECTB BRIGHT. The fourth annual report of the Michigan State Telephone Cos., for 1907, shown an increase of 13 per cent in gross earnings and a very slight Increase In construction and maintenance, so that the net show ing is one of large profit. The gross earnings were $3,092,225.92. as com pared with $2,661,296.41 for the. p.» vlous year. The general and operat ing expenses were only $16,000 more. The net earnings were $1,4)47,252 for the year, from which is deducted s2B,* 475 for general expenses. $414,776 for interest, $136,644 for dividends and $271,468 for maintenance reserve. This leaves a surplus of $195,887 for the year or a total surplus of $654,138 to the credit of the company since ur organization. The surplus for 1906 was only $140,- 337, although there was nothing charg ed off for maintenance reserve. The report states that it has been the policy of the company to restrict low-rate and less profitable Installa tions, thus reducing the expenditure for construction also. The gain in exchange stations was 9,674 for 1907 as compared with 16,529 for 1906.

BTUDY IN CONTRACTS IN RECORDER’S COURT. An interesting study In con* trust* wu presented In Judge. Phelan's court, Thursday. After the Bowln Jury retired to its "deliberations,” Judge Phelan took up the trial of Herman Mertens, charged with harbor ing a vicious dog. The jury was out only five or ten minutes, and reached an agreement al most at the same moment that the Bowln Jury agreed. The Bowln jury was brought in- first. While the jurors were still smarting under the court’s bit ter arraignment, the other jury filed into the room and the fore man said in loud tones: "Guilty.** "That’s a fine system they have up here." observed the de fendant, Mertens. *Tm inno cent and they find me guilty, while that hoy is guilty of mur der and they let him go free. That’s Justice for you.” Bowln left the court room n hero in some eyes. Mertens, whose only* crime was that of harboring a dog alleged to be vicious, wasi fined f2O. with the alternative of 10 days in the county Jail. Detroit has seen the 4ast'«of Percy Bowtn, slayer of Mrs. Cornelia Welch, who Whs set mh'by jdrf In fifes* corder’s court, Thursday. With*- hit mother he left for WoodvlUe, Out., Thursday night, vowing that he was through with girls for a wahile, at least. He said he might coins back to the city some day and look for a job. In that event it is not likely. h#„ will remain long, however, for the police propose to keep an eye on Bowin in the future whenever he steps foot in their baliwick. Bowin revisited police headquarters, the scene of his late confeasion, Thursday afternoon. He brazenly faced Capt. McDonnell and asked wr the return of the personal effects taken from him at the time of hia arrest. He was told to come hack Friday morning, but Bowin did not care to delay his departure for the sake of a few trinkets. He was anx ious to shake the dust of Detroit from bis feet. So he sent Mrs. James Horrtck after his things. She called at the secre tary's office during the forenoon and was told frankly that she could not have them; that Bowin must call in person. "But he’s gone away. He left the city last night,” she explained. "Then you will have to get a writ ten order from him,” said the clerk, and Mrs. Horrlck indignantly took her departure. Rose Laveick. star witness for the prosecution in the Bowin case, was discharged from custody Frldgy morn ing. She drew S9O in witness fees. Sentiment Freed Bowin. That sympathy and sentiment freed Percy Bowin, self-confessed murderer of Mrs. Cornelia Welch, is apparently borne out by several little Incidents' that .occurred during the trial, both in and out of court. The Jurors, during their confinement, had quarters in the Hotel Brunswick, and spent their evenings in singing and telling stories. Juror Joseph F.

Johnson, of Minnesota, kindly men tioned In the meeting of the Wayne County Democratic club In Barnlet hall, Thursday evening. Daniel J. Campau was Indorsed for national committeeman. The meeting wab a harmony one, but the “New Deal Democracy,” which was not strongly represented, got a few raps from Justice E. J. Jeffries, who made the principal speech of the evening. The resolution calling for the In struction of the Michigan national convention delegates In favor of Bryan states “It is not a time for new and untried men." The club also ask ed that Mr. Bryan speak here the evening of next Thursday under the auspices of the club. Robert Galen objected to this, unless Gov. Johnson was also invited to speak. On motion of Justice Jeffries, John son was invited to be the guest of the club while here. In his speech. Justice Jeffries hand led the antl-Campau faction without gloves. “It Is manifest to the Independent Democrats that there Is a clique," he said. He declared that if the party is to be purged of Campau, the Dem ocrats have a right to know the character of the men who do the purging. He declared that Mayor Thompson and his friends have all the city offices and that the other Democrats had worked for them. “Why not get together? They’ll find that they need us as much as we need them,” he said. Charles T. Wilkins, Charles 8. Hampton and others spoke in the same strain. Daniel J. Campau and Thomas E. Barkworth, the latter of Jackson, will go to Chicago to meet Bryan and will accompany him on his tour through the state. WARD’S LAWYERS SAY HE HAD GOOD DEFENSE Rep. Charles E. Ward, acquitted of a manslaughter charge by direction of Judge Connolly, Thursday, because the prosectuion’s case was defective, was prepared to defend himself against the accusation if the case had Aft' io „v'*’*■**}'■ Tfcap—lriou that they were prepared to show that the Presley girl’s trouble was caused by another; that she came to Detroit with a letter of introduction from a man in Lansing other than Ward; that this letter was delivered to a woman, well-known lq local society circles, and that this woman made ar rangements for the operation that necessitated the second operation in Hope sanitarium. The attorneys as sert that they were prepared also to meet and explain the intimacy that ex isted between Ward and Miss Presley as shown by the girl’s diary. But, un der the circumstances, it is now im possible to make public all the de tails of the defense or to use names, and Ward must continue to suffer un der the disgrace attending the revela tions brought to light by the girl’s death. Legally, he is Innocent, his lawyers say, but his career has been ruined. WOODWORKERS STRIKE OVER WAGE DISPUTE One of the earliest strikes of the spring season Is that of the woodwork ers in certain shops. Employes of the Hoffman Manufacturing Cos. and the J. H. Buekers Manufacturing Cos., who walked out recently on account of a dispute over wage scale are still ou strike and claim that they have a good chance of success. As the men state the case, they have been working for 33 cents an hour and were willing to accept a re duction to 30 cents, but were told they must accept 25 cents per hour. Twen ty-five walked out at the Hoffman plant and 18 at the Buekers. Both firms make saloon and store fixtures and claim business la not any too brisk. “I am not going to sign any union scale any more,” says Mr. Hoffman, of the Hoffman Manufacturing Cos. “I have 15 men working now and shall need only' a few more. I will pay them according to what they earn. Some will get as high as 33 cents an hour, others loss.” "We have all the men wo need everything is all right,” was the state ment make at the Buekers plant. Honesty is the excuse lots of men give for being poor. 49HB9ABS9S9HBfiSK99B l 9K B Si9nnß9 LOST S3OO Buying Mediclns When Right Food Was Needed. Money spent for "tonics” and ‘‘bracers” to relieve indigestion, while the poor old stomach is loaded with pastry and pork, is worse than losing i pocketbook containing the money. If the money only is lost it’s bod enough* but with lost health from wrong eating, it Is hard to make tne noney back. A Mich, young lady lost money on drugs, but is thankful she found n way to get back her health by proper t'oud.

From the sale of seats for the Pad erewski concert, wbJch opened Thurs day morning in Grlnnell Bros.’ music store, the indications, are that the famous Pole will be greeted by a rec ord-breaking audience when he ap pears in the Light Guard armory next Tuesday evening. A noticeable feature of the sale is that a large number of the musical students of the city, as well as teach ers, have already secured seats, pu pils having been urged to attend the concert lu order to study the method, the technique and the interpretation of this, the greatest of pianists. This will probably be the last opportunity Detroiters will have to hear Pader ewski for several years, as he hopes to retire to his home In Switzerland for a long period of rest after he com pletes his tour of this country. TO RENEW FIGHT AGAINST GRIDLEY The fight against City Accountant W. D. Orldley will be started In the board of estlmatea again thia year.

The increase in salary from $2,000 to $2,600 for Deputy Con troller Nagel was held up temporarily by the general fund committee. That for a medico-legal expert was passed temporarily. SCHOOL BOARD HOLDS PEACEFUL SESSION The board of education held an other peaceful session, Thursday night, transacting the usual routine business, without even the suggestion of a scrap of any kind. The nearest approach to a discussion was when the proposition to change the hour of meeting from 8 o'clock to 7:30 came up. Nobody warmed up to the 7:80 proposal and the hour was formally fixed at 8 p’clock. There were a few smiles when the text book commlttoc reported In favor of purchasing ’steen "Bow-Wow” picture books, half a dox en “Mary's Little Lambs” and a doz en or so “Prince Mud Turtles."
