RANGE'S PRESENT
INCOME TAX PLAN
Says Grange Plan Repealed
by South Garolnia
In 1926        „"     '
FAILED TO JAKE GOOD
Bureau Doubts Idea Would Attain Expectations In
Michigan '
"The most recent Grange income
tax plan, proposed at the hearing of
the Special Tax Commission at Lansing, March 20 has few of the advantages claimed for it, was disowned 4 years ago in the State of South
, Carolina where it originated, and was
rejected by the Michigan Farm
Bureau ■ before the ' hearing," R.
Wayne Newton, Director of Taxation
for the Bureau said March 24. His
statement continues:
"During its life in South Carolina
the income tax law which attempted
to levy a state tax at 1-3 the Federal
rates failed in every way to live up to
the claims made for it by Michigan
Grange leaders.. It did not do away
with two sets of collecting officers,
and did not eliminate the necessity of
filing separate and different .reports
by taxpayers, as was claimed at the
recent hearing in Lansing.
"Prior to its repeal in 1926, the
South Carolina act was described by
official investigators as 'wholly a
mistake' because of the attempt to
follow the Federal law; yet1 this was
the' chief merit claimed for the plan
by its local advocates. The same investigators who condemned this income tax measure in South Carolina
proposed measures for the control of
tax levy increases through review of
budgets and bond issues in a manner:
" Jjuite similar to that suggested 'for
.Michigan""hy/ tn'e . Michigan Farm
Bureau,; Michigan Real Estate Association and Michigan Manufacturers Association at the Lansing hearing. ,
"Although urange - speakers laid
great stress on the'.faet that-the proposed income tax act- would' provide
funds for equahVng • local -sphool

CITIZENS' CANDIDATE
FOR MAYUR MAKES
Gives Reasons Why His Withdrawal From 'ticket is
Necessary
v  __       •-'
N. L. Tibbils whose name appears
on the head of the1 Citizen's ticket for
mayor, explains why he" sought the
position and why he Is unable to accept it.
"Being approached by a Committee
seeking some one to head their ticket
after the withdrawal of the candidate
nominated, I gave my consent without proper consultation in the house
and due to the domestic disturberance
set up—I must apolize to the committee for being unable to fulfil the
promise and explain my reason for
accepting offer in the first place.
"I attended the Republican caucus.
Did you? Well-don't forget this word
Pr-mise. A prom'se to a young man
could be overlooked and forgotten,
but a promise to an honorable, law
abiding, pioneer gentlemen, one of
our largest taxpayers and oldest
business men, and then preparation
to defeat that prom'se is lacking of
the respect which that aged citizen
was led to anticipate.
"Now let us dwell for a bit on our
Mayorship and the extent of the power of the office, if you please, Mr.
Citizen. Thanks to our laws, each of
our wards is or should be represented
by two men on the council and the
affairs of the* three* wards should be
handled by the s'x aldermen thus provided. The Mayor "Calls the meeting" to order, should see the business
transacted in a peaceful and un-
haughty manner and then entertain
a motion to adjourn. It would seem
that seven men could carry out this
routine, as the law prginally intended,:
thus rendering a real service to the
people they represent. WhatTias happened? '  .'-. ■
"Some where hi tlie "past—to get
votes—I find, that some .aspirant to
the office of mayor*---€Ktal»li8hed a
custom, -to--thaJ" .end*- by " making
promises.   Let us see If ..this is just.
To Illustrate, since being proclaimed a candidate I have been approached by questions from who will" you
appoint to shave .and manicure the
c'ty park lawn to where do you stand
on the 4 taxation valuation of the
Doherty. Hotel? From—who -will you,
appoint to direct traffic this summer;
to how iare you going to handle the
local Prohibition question,..etc.? Bless
your- heart 'Mr. Voter, the council as
your representative has something-to
say "relative to these,,,appointments,;
the supervisors take careof.the taxes
and the -Literary Digest -is goingvto
settle future troubles arising over the
18th Amendment.. -
A little argument arises as to'-why
■should a Republican aspire to an- Office on the "Citizens ticket". Boy
wouldn't it be a grand and glorious-
feeling* If. party issue never entered:
into our city election thereby doing
away -with that little feeling Of hatred
'existing for £he" time bemg even
among friends, whose candidates do
noc happen to.be on the same ticket.
Again, Wouldn't it be a wonderful
experince to see all' candidates for
office, go to the polls and' "vote: and.
reire to his .usual Vacation,'allowing
the public to cast their ballot according to their judgment and without rfs
or her (aspirants) interference. Also
wouldn't it be a courtesy to see all
absent voters ballots arranged for before election day and wouldn't the
city clerk and election board appreciate it?
Our laws governing our election are
still OK. but locally, a't least, people
to quite, an extent, have gotten away
from the interest of ^ame and our
men are carried into office too often
by the promises they are unable to
fulfil.,
-Yours for a better, cleaner and thus
fairer city politic and a representation of the people thru their representatives and I have written it myself. ' .   •

TWO HUNDRED STOCK

and Assistants Arrange Instructive Program
Local Association Reports Show
Best Year's Business Since
Organized
Nearly two hundred live stock
shippers sat down to a beautifully
decorated table at seven o'clock last
Friday evening in the Duncan auditorium and were served a very tasty
three course dinner by the Mt, Vernon Grange ladies. These ladles sure
did prove themselves to be wonderful artists in cooking and serving.
There were present as guests from
The Mich'gan Live Stock Exchange
of Detroit, J. H. O'Mealey, Secretary;
George -Bontell, Manager; Earl Ray,
Cattle Sales; George Baker, Hog
Bales; Chas. Culver, Sheep Sales;
Professor George Brown, of The
Michigan State College, and Mr. Well-
aian of The Elevator Exchange 6t*
Lansing.
Richard Brooks, president of the
local association, was chairman of
<he event. He gave a brief summary
)f the year's business which was by
far the largest during the life of the
association, having shipped 90 cars,
total valuation of about $140,000.00,
compared with $37,000.00 for the first
year.
Mr. Brooks introduced Mr. Dawson,
who in a very efficient manner carried on the duties of toastmaster.
Harvey without question was boss of
the job every minute, with his natural
wit and comic stories he put the program over amid cheers, laughter*and
seriousness all in order.
Mr. Q'MealJy of Detroit first speaker'covered in a very able manner the
•live stock conditions in general;
throughout .the nation. In consideration of business generally live stock
has held up in an excellent way. However, if- other lines continue to drag,
naturally like stock will be pulled
down. ^r. O'Meally's remarks were
very instructive and well received.
Geoi-gS Bohtell gave a short talk
on the Veal calf. He stated the quality of this trade had shown "considerable impi-ovement of late years from
Clare. To be a quality calf, necessitates a quality, nlottier, plus all' the
whole', niiik ifaesires for at least six
to. seven weeks, -and should weigh
"from 160 to "ISO to bring top prices.

"TWENTY-TWO HUNDRED
FEET OF OIL IN PIPE
OPERA BRINGS OUT
SPLENDID TALENT
■     AMONG HOME FOLK
»     ___________
Several Changes Made in Cast
From    First '- Appearance.
Splendid Audience Greets
Players
Clare's musical talent again scored
on Friday evening, March 21st, when
the comic opera H. M. S. Pinafore
was played a second time to a very
appreciative audience.
The two acts of the play are staged
on the deck ot. the ship Pinafore as
she lies in the harbor of Portsmouth.
The fussy, small minded little English snobj who had become First Lord
ot the Admiralty thru no natural ability, is a'character that holds up to
ridicule the elevation to authority of
the so-called nobly born, and, as the
Rt. Hon. Sir Joseph Porter, K. C. B.;
Fred McGuire sure "struts his stuff",
he displayed much hitherto undiscovered talent.
Captain Corcoran sings some good
songs and Norr's Elden's fine voice ir.
Just right for the part. His work, as*
ihvcys, was good, but, heinz handicapped by a cold, his young son, Dex-
er, acted as understudy, and sang
his best song, Fa-ir Moon, at the open
ing of Act II. Dexter has a very
sweet'voice and sang the song well.
Captain Corcoran's daughter, Josephine, "The lass that loved a sailor,
is the leading lady of the production,
and th's part, as taken by Louisa
Oaks, was all that ppnld be desired.
Sweet voiced. and prettily gowned
in the fashion of the day when Pinafore was first produced, she brought
:o us a vision of bigger theatrec
where operas can be produced on a
bigger scalp.    • '
The love and despair of Josephine'r
sweetheart, the common sailor, Ralph
Rackstraw, was creditably portrayed
by Margaret McKnight, who brought
a good voice much dramatic ability
and world's of "pep" to the part.
Ugly Dick Deadeye was at his
ugliest as,pictured by Lawrence Jackson who made up to perfection the
character of the hunch, backed, one-
eyed Dick.
.Little Buttercup, the Bumboat
wofhan and one time- baby farmer,
•was ably taken care of by'Doris Gerow.' - *-. j-." '• .
..Bo'sri' Bill Bobstay in the person
of. Ed. Zeminer looked and acted the
part, and * Hebe' <.ne first of Sir
Joseph's "sisters, h's cousins' and his
aunts" was very sweetly 'sung' and'
acted by Louisa Rogers. £aid sisters, cousins and aunts with the Pinafore .crew, formed a most satisfactory
chorus.;   "                    ' '*
This production of Pinafore war
the musical event of the year in oui
littlfe town and was sponsored by. the
•Clare Study Club.
■The Club is most grateful to Mrs.
MciGuire who directed, to Helen Lucile Bicknell who-accompanied, and
to all others, especially those not interested in the club •who* gave of their
time and-their ta'lent. Mrs. McGa're

Bowman   Well  in   Vernon
Township Makes Excellent Showing While Only Two and One-half
Feet in Dundee     '
Drilling  Operations   Suspended
Until Storage Tanks Can be
Erected. Fluid Said to be
of High Quality
Much interest and excitement -was
manistfested Wednesday about noon,
when it became known that the first
oil had been struck in the Clai*e field
itt the Bowman well, located in Vernon township, 4 1-2 miles south' of
Clare when Jos. Slatten, the driller,
brought up a bailer full of the liquid
gold after the drill had penetrated
two and o'ne-half feet into the Dundee,
The strike was round soon after the
drill had passed through a hard crust
-.'ormation of rock or heavy slate over
-ie dundee and passing to a .depth of
J720 feet. The formations of .this
.yell are said to have been regular.at
learly every depth.
Operations have been temporarily
discontinued until storage tanks.can
ue erected and pipes laid, as it is believed that there will be sufficient
gas to make a flowing well. Oil has
entered the pipe to a depth of twenty*-
two hundred -feet and is claimed by
officials to be of a high quality.     c
.This well has been watched with
remarkable interest by officials of
many oil companies -and has provea
that a port of gold lies in nprthera
Isabella and Clare counties and "will
undoubtedly mean much activity in
this secdon this spring.
