'onger meeting in the evening. In

given an opportunity to meet the
gentlemen named.—Record.
Roy Odell, who lives in Horth Bradley, was brought before Justice Shell
Monday charged with assault and battery. The youth was charged with
hurling a missle at a passing train on
the Pere Marquette on the afternoon
of September 28. The missle happened to enter the cab o f the engine and
striking the engineer on the forehead
nearly put out his right eye. It is
feared that he may lose his sight.
The case was turned over to C. L.
Jenn-?.y, local agent of the state board
of corrections and charities, whb will
investigate the report. Meanwhile
the boy is locked up in the county jail.

George Cummins is the candidate of
the Republicans for prosecuting attorney of Clare county again this year.
He is an able lawyer and if Clare
county knows its business, and we
think It does, he will have a tremendous majority.—Gladwin Rfecord.
Clare county is onto her job, Bro,
Foster, and genial George is to succeed
himself. The county cannot afford to
intrust the responsibilities of this
important office to an inexperienced,
beardless youth. With due respect to
Mr. Lacy, we-aiheerely believe he doeB
himself an injustice to" consent to
assume responsibilities such as accompany this office, so early in his
professional career.
