Judge Moinet Named for Eastern Michigan Federal Judgeship
Speculation centers on Judge Be J Moinet of Gratiot and Clinton counties as a leading candidate for a federal judgeship in eastern Michigan. Support from ex Judge Kelly S Soaps and local lawyers highlights Moinet’s honest labor and strong reputation, with broad backing from the Gratiot Clinton bar. He was born in Ohio in 1872, studied at St. Johns and the University of Michigan, and formed Lyon & Moinet before serving as a Clinton County attorney and judge.

Alma firm lands Alma paving contract for first street segment
Holmes Crane and Bartling of Alma win the bid for the first paving job on South Woodworth Avenue from Mast Superior Street to the Pere Marquette railroad. The 30 foot wide asphalt project near Superior Street will widen at the curb and narrows by the alley. The low bid comes in under city expectations and nearly matches the company’s recent state trunk line bid due to on-site machinery. Work may start soon while other trunk line paving proceeds. The fate of paving on other streets remains to be decided.
