section which will read as follows:
"Any'bounty in the state may issue
bonds to raise money for tbe construction of drains and tbe development and improvement of agricultural lands within the county, under
such conditions as shall beprescribed
by law." An amendment adopted
in 1910 forbids any county incurring
an indebtedness greater than three

Rev.  Knight  Has   Fine   Position
In Genesee Co.
Rev. I. vtf. Knight, who for the
past three years has been pa9tor of
the Baptist churches here and at
Sheridan, has been called to tbe pastorate of the Baptist church at Mt
Morris. This is a fine little town of
about 1000 population, situated in
the midst of a fine rich farming district some seven miles north of Fiint.
It is on the Pere Marrjuette railroad,
also on the Sagiuaw-Detroit iuterur-
I ban line. It has good schools and is
I an up-to-dat<» ("own generally.

We are sorry to see Mr. Knight
and'his estimable family leave our
midst. They will be missed in manv
ways, but we are glad that tbey go
to a place promising so many advantages. The best wishes of a wide
circle of friends will   go   with   them.

The political campaign seems to
excite no one so very much in this
part of the country. Thus far the
Republicans have held only two
meetings in the county so far as we
have beard. The democrats have
held a few and the Progressives quite
a number, Only very moderate audiences attend any of the meetings.
