The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1882-10-06

There were 100 cases on the Docket of
the Supreme Court, of which were from
Shiawassee county.
We learn that Kittie Rowell made the
mile in 1.25 "a on the track at the Shia-
wassee county fair the track was exceed
ingly rough and several seconds slow,
while the fastest time made by this class,
on the splendid track at East Saginaw du
ring the North Eastern Fair last week,
was LA "a for the half mile.
In answer to the Query" of we'll
known citizen, we say once for all, that
THE TINES has no mud to throw at the
candidates ON the fusion ticket, local or
State. We shall make square, vigorous
fight for the Republican candidates and
for Republican principles. If there is to
be mud thrown some other agency than
THE TINES must lie selected to throw
IT,
The fusion convention in this city last
Saturday, nominated Lawrence VanDusen,
of Owosso, for Representative in the State
Legislature. Van. is clever fellow, and
has lots of personal friends, but as the rep
resentative of ''the lost cause" and ''dis-
honest money!" cannot expect either Re-
publicans, or hard money Democrats to
vote for him.
The Casket Factory company have
commenced the erection of six brick ten
ament houses on the grounds near their
works, which are to be two stories high
and finished in a thorough manner. Mr.. l..
E. Woodland is also building four houses
on Shiawassee street, for the use of the
working men in his employ. All these
houses will be completed at an early day.
Charles A. Towne, formerly of this city,
now of the Department of Public Instruc.
lion at Lansing, delivered speech at
Meridian, Ingham county, last Saturday
evening. of which the Lansing Republican
says, "no more mastery exposition of the
financial questions of the day has ever
been presented to Michigan audience"
of which we hope to be able to print
synopsis next week.
In the vegetable department at our
county fair, Mr.. Ledbeter exhibited some
as fine specimens as we have seen in many
a day, and it will pay any man interested
in gardening to visit his extensive grounds
north of King and east of Hickory street,
and see his crop of celery, now growing
there, and from which he must reap a
ricll harvest. More such gardens would
be for the best interest of our people.
Mr.. Harry Warner and Mr.. Homer H.
Butler, of Meadville, Pennsylvania, who
have been spending few days visiting the
Carpenter brothers and other friends in
Owosso, have now gone north in Ogomaw
county, in company with the Carpenter
brothers, the Matlock brothers, and two
other gentlemen whose names we did not
learn, on a deer hunt. We hope they will
have lots of sport, find BEARS plenty,
and return from their trip richly laden.
DR.. you know, if you know anything
about the printing business, that there was
no fraud about the matter of the posters
for the County Fair, that they were in
every legitimate sense "Times Print" Be-
sides when you say they were printed in
Detroit, you say that about which you
know nothing. The society employed
THE TIMES to publish the posters they
were delivered on time to the satisfaction
of the Committee, from THE TINES office,
and it is just none of your business which
one of our employees did the work. II
was The TIMES print and you know il
If you want to attack us, better select
some more legitimate subject of attack, il
you can find one if not, keep the peace
