Having A Hard Fight.
Prosecuting AttoVney Sawyer, when
he was re-elected, made" a promise to
cut out* the tramp business in Washtenaw county aod he hasput up "a hard
ffght to carry out* fiis premise. For
the month just ended he has saved the
county §1,499.21 over that of January,
1806; and §2,673.07 oyer that of the
same month,' 1905. He has accomplished this by refusing to issue orders
for the arrest of tramps and vagrants
wben the cost was to fall on the county. Some of the justices and deputy
sheriffs are, however, banded against
him, for hu arrest by one ofiicer is
followed by another ofiicer going security for costs, vvith the result that
the suit is tried. Mr. Sawyer suggests
that the only way to ridjkhe county of
the tramp evil is (or the establishment
of a police court justice for Ann Arbor
on a salary. \
Quarreling Over Rates.
The, right of the D., Y., A. A. & J.
to charge extra fare oh its limited cars
is still in court and Dearborn village
has just Bled a petition in the Wayne
circuit court asking the court to issue
a mandamus compelling the road to
live up to their {iO-year franchise
through that, village. The , maximum
rates of fare in this franchise are one
and a half cents a mile from Woodward avenue, Detroit, to any point" in
Ann Arbor, or one cent a mile with
mileage books. The village claims
that this maximum rate is exceeded on
the limited cars. Judge Mandell set;
February IS as the date by which the
road must show cause why the mandamus should not be granted.—Times.

Walks Are Abominable.
"What abominable walks," said a
gentleman to us Monday, who ,iwas
picking his way carefully over, the
rough, frozen snow and ice on his way
to town And sure enough, since the
udyent nf tec snow■ piovi\ they are left
by residents for the man and' his plow
to clear them'of snow. Tbe distance
to cover is so great thai one man cannot make it in time to do any good.
The resctit is that we have never had
such dangerous walks as now. Whoever is responsible for this neglect of
the lot ownet's would do well to get. a
move on him lest the winter brings a
series of damage suits against the city.
—Ypsilantian.-
A number of farmers near Chelsea
have been complaining of losing sheep
which they attributed to dogs but
later proved to be a big timber, wolf as
ho had been sighted by several.
The state military board has decided

Prof. A. F. Jones of the Hudson
schools, has been appointed as teacher
of Mathematics and director of Athletics in the Detroit Central high

Chief of Police Masten of Ann Ai'-
bor, received a letter a short time ago
from Ray Kent, the young man who
shot him on October 20, but in such a
way that it is a difficult matter to locate him. He claims that he did not
realize what he did until the* next
morning.
The University students seemed to
be bent on having a good time last
Thursday night. About 500 of them
paraded the streets of Ann Arbor until 9 o'clock when they boarded a
Michigan Central train for Ypsilanti,
whet'e they continued their fun until
the small hours of the morning.
"A Cleaning Out"
Capt. John Holzapfel-of .the, Jackson
city police force, was shot down without a moment's warning by a surly
patrol driver, one day last week. The
deed was done so quickly that no one*
scarcely realized" what had occurred
until it was all over. The murderer--
words,- "I am going to clean* house,"
contained - more - truth than ' poetry.
The"police forc-i was-divided, nearly
half of them are drinking men, and.the
temperate ones generally, received 'the
promotions'.. A "general "cleaning
out", will be commenceaisoon-."7   ■   :
