Otto is a candidate for alderman In the Third ward on the Progressive ticket. His name was placed on the ballot through a move- ment instituted by his friends in the Anderson Electric comp&uy. where lie is employed. They wanted an oppor- tunity to vot« for a man with a clean record who believes In progressive government, and they doubted If there was such a man on the ticket, dc. they laid their plans to secure one. Mr. Otto is about 40 yeafs old. He lives at No. 220 Horton-ave.. is married and has two childreu. He is an expert on fine automobile trim* mint He has Infracted—in municipal affairs for a long time, and has taken a definite stand on most of the problems which confront Detroit. He believes that the people should vote on all questions of importance. He believes in clean administration. He believes ill bearing the opinions of his constituents and in voting ac- cording to their desires. He believes in municipal ownership. He says that the street railway question aught never to be settled In any way bat the one preferred by the majority of the citizens of Detroit. The Socialist party will hold two open air meetings, Sunday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, weather permitting, at Gratiot-uve. and Beaubien-st. and on Cadillac-sq., in front of the county building. The speakers will be M F Martin, Oswald Hinx, August Wolfe and John W. Pickering. armory address, Saturday night, the Progressives have abandoned the plan. Instead, automobiles and red fire will be used and open-air meet- ings will be addressed. Horatio S.

Amos S. Musßelman. Republican candidate for governor, addressed two meetings in Detroit. Friday night. He pleaded agaiust overturning the eco- nomic system of the country. Ho said he could uot understand why anybody should waut & change, for the country had been very prosperous under President Taft. Friends of Albert Mosinsky, the So- cialist party candidate for sheriff, be- lieves that his vote will be one of the surprise* of the election. Mosin- sky is a brolher-m-law of John C. Beutler. proprietor of the Randolph hotel, a gathering place of political workers, as well as of many persons of strong Socialistic tendencies, who are out working hard for Albert. The number of split tickets that win bear a cross beside his name, voted by some of his strong friends In other parties, Is expected to make a con- siderable showing-for the Socialist party candidate. "Let the workers own the natron; then let the nation own the trusts," is Mosinsky's battle cry. He Is one of the best Informed men on matters of government policy in the city. He is a deep student, well educated, and a close observer of current events. "I don't care for the sort of votes that can be bought," says this candi- date, who frankly admits that he does not expect to be elected, always add- ing "this time." A. J. McKelway, secretary of the National Child committee for the southern state*, on receipt of a letter from Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart, of the Progressive national committee, asking for a campaign contribution, replied that be is sup- porting Woodrow Wilson, and gave these reasons among others: That the program of the Progres- sive party cannot be carried out by the nation, because of the limits im posed by the constitution, and must be carried out. if at all. by the states. That Gov. Wilson was able, with a not altogether friendly legislature, to carry out numerous reforms In Nsw Jersey, such as: The abolition of the contract labor In prisons Laws limiting the hours of labor for women.

Order exists only where the invad- ers of the sultan's dominions nave es- tablished it They have not been long enough established in the ter- ritories they have seized to have ac- complished much as yet. The Turks, beaten every where, have lost all con- trol. The disgraceful character of the de- feats the sultan's troops have sus- tained were just beginning to be learned fully today. They were not the soldiers' fault but that of the gov- ernment which sent them into bottle hopelessly disorganized and unpre- pared. When Gen. Nazim Basha saw the tide of the conflict turning against ♦mo at l.nlv Dnrgnn he annealed fran- tic ally again and again for reinforce- ments. Several train loads of men were rushed forward from Cborlu but many of them were unarmed. Others were wounded wrho had previously been sent to the rear as incapable of further fighting. The untrained men whom the gov- ernment insisted on placing at the forefront, started the rout. Throwing away guns and ammunition they dashed madly for the rear, fairly over- whelming the older troops who strug- gled to stand their ground. Many offi- cers who tried to check the panic were killed by their own men. The Turkish army was transformed TO VOTERS OF MICHIGAN: In order to grasp at the last straw to save them- selves from defeat, the opponents of Woodrow Wilson and the Democratic party have started the old bug- aboo cry of “PANIC” to ward off certain Democratic success at the polls next week. It is an old and moss- covered game, blit weaker this year than ever. Heretofore they have caused to be published all over the country alleged “NEWS” dispatches staging that this and that manufacturing concern had re- ceived orders conditional upon the result of the elec- tion—in other words that if the Republican party was defeated, the 4 ORDER” was to be canceled. There has never been any sincerity in .Rich “ORDERS” in the past, though they have probaoly had a very marked effect on the elections. But this year our opponents have not had the rashness to publish the old fakes. They know the people will not believe them. They know that instead of “Orders” being received with any proviso—REAL ORDERS are being received with the RUSH demand attached. They know that there is not an intelligent BUSINESS MAN in the United States who has not BELIEVED for months, and who does not believe now. that WOODROW WILSON’S ELECTION IS CERTAIN. They know that the vast majority of people in the United States have BELIEVED for TWO YEARS that the NEXT ADMINISTRATION was to be DEMOCRATIC, and with this fact known to all men, BUSINESS has been IMPROVING dav by day and month hv month, the GREATER LEAPS for- ward having l>eon made since the election of the DEMOC RAT IU Congress t\so years ago—the fore- runner of the greater and more complete victory to In* realized next week. If the mendacity of political committees, who join with trusts and monopolies in seeking to control elections by threatening PANIC and STARVATION, unless they are allowed to HAVE THEIR OWN WAY. is to Ir* effective, then we are in- deed a NATION of SLAVES and the BLOW FREEDOM may as well STRUCK AT ONCE.

    DRIVEN TO DESPERATIONThe Old Bunco Cry of “‘PANIC” Is Started by Defenders

    of Trusts and Monopolies

    Just one instance of the dastardly nature of thecourse of some “bis: business men” will suffice.

    Only a few days afro elaborate two-page adver-tisements were printed in Detroit bv some of thewealthy automobile manufacturers of that city,wherein they sought to inflame the people againstWoodrow Wilson and the Democratic party becauseof their stand for a REASONABLE and JUST TAR-IFF' instead of a tariff for EXTRA PROFIT.

    When the voters know that such a cry comesfrom an industry that has in a few years made MOREMILLIONAIRES than any other industry in the his-tory of this country, in the same length of time—-when they know that investments of SEVERAL HUN-DRED THOUSAND DOLLARS have in a few yearsgrown into PROPERTY VALUES OF MILLIONSUPON MILLIONS, and meanwhile have been payingMILLIONS IN DIVIDENDS, will they be hoodwinkedby such bare-faced deception?

    Men of Michigan, let us be men; let us rebukethis old game of intimidation. Show the Morgans,who are backing Taft, and the Perkins, who are back-ing Roosevelt, that this is a year for the PEOPLEto RULE. Therefore, vote for

    WOODROW WILSON for President.
