NATURE’S SUMMER PLAYGROUND. Through the kindness of W. R. Mackenzie and through the courtesy of Fred Dennis, secretary of the Becker County Development Associa- tion acopy of Nature’s Summer Playground came into our possession. It is a beautifully illustrated booklet, describing, in words fit for the Garden of Eden, Detroit and its beautiful surroundings. Judging from the description one would indeed be tempted to give a few weeks of his life each summer among the lakes of this summer resort. This class of work properly dis- tributed ought to do much to bring to Detroit what it justly deserves. TAFT BILL PASSES HOUSE. After all, the insurgents’ fight in the house was bluster and bluff. Not one had the nerve to vote againgf it when it pasced the house. The Taft plan is an admirable one. Even fourteen democrats voted for the bill, which passed 200 to 126. Two good provisions (putting \ changes in railway rates and con- solidation of lines under commission the, control) were dropped out; one good provision (valuation of railway physical equipment) was added; and some bad provisions .(notably the long and short haul clause) were added. The senate will pass the bill with less changes' than did the house. And the conference com- mittees of the two houses will be sure to restore a pretty fair balance. It all augurs well for the general ‘Taft program. [ BY THE WAY'I A loud veice does not add strength to an argument, As soon as a man tries to lead he must expect criticism. No matter if you fall by accident, you cannot expect anybody to pick you up on purpose. No person can uphold his dignity and have a cold at the same time. Never hestitate about giving Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy to children. It contains no opium or other narcotics and can be given with implicit confidence. As a quick cure for coughs and colds to which children are susceptible, it is unsurpassed. Sold by Barker Drug Co. HON. CHAMP CLARK. Oppo: Arising to His Possible Election as Speaker. on Photo by American Press Association. P L S——— ) CHAMP CLARK IS OPPOSED Efforts Made to Fight His Pessible Election as Speaker. Washington, May 17.—Efforts are being made by Democratic members unfriendly to Champ Clark to organ- ize opposition to his election as speak- er, should the house be Democratic. An unsigned manifold letter was passed around among the Democrats announcing there was certaln te be opposition. The object of the com- munication, it was said, was to pre- vent hasty declarations of support for Mr. Clark. There has been no open revolt against Mr. Clark, although his friends know he has not the best wishes of some Texas, Georgia, New York and New England members. John D. Rockefeller would go broke if he should spend his entire income trying to prepare a better medicine than Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for diarrhoea, dysentery or bowel com- plaints. It is simply impossible, and. so says every one that has used it.
