At a recent meeting ot the executive committee, it was decided to
raise 120,000 for publicity work. It
was thought this amount could be
raised from the various counties belonging, from the real estate owners
and dealers, manufacturing and trade
organizations, and the railroads.
Each county will be asked to give
to give one tenth of a mill on each
dollar of valuation, but Jnone less
than $200 or mere than £1,000. The
Michigan Central, Detroit and Mackinaw and I'ere Marquette it is expected will be the chief contributors
among the transportation companies.
In [dace of a large exhibit at such
places as a lin.i show, as was done
la-t year, it was thought better results c^uld be ubtaice i with a traveling show in cities of less than 10,000
population. It is expected the display will remain some little time ia. j

there was practically no Cutting on
treasurer, but that each candidatere-
ceived about the normal partv vote.
Neither man had been prominent in
the local option fight, which emphasises the fact that it was not an anti-
republican day. In the case of tho
justice, while the figures look like
the normal vote, there was in fact a
great deal of cutting. Dozens of
republicans voted for the democratic
candidate for jastice, but these were
faily olf-set by the democrats who
cut him for the republican candidate.
In other words, Monday's city
eiection ignored efficient service and
party lines, but was a "wet" and
"dry" tight, pure and simple. Or,
to be more accurate, it was a fight
against the leaders of the local
option cause. The fact that local
option had an adverse majority in
the city of 40, while Mr. Mulder for
mayor lost by SI, seems to bear out
the statement of many that they did
cot caro so much about local option,
bat that they  wanted  to   "get"   the
