Our long time subscriber, Loring
Parker, Esq, of Chigrin Falls, Ohio,
is visiting his son, H. w. Parker, and
seems to be enjoying life in Owosso.
He has made THE TIMES several
pleasant calls which we have enjoyed
very much. Come again, friend Par

w., the Owosso correspondent of
the Shiawassee American will find it
is a "cyclone" in dead earnest that
will be buzzing about his ears, if he
does not stop blowing against the
interests of the people of the city
who have made him all he is. There
may be no rain in it, but The TIMES
tells him it will be ''chock full" of
hail stones that will fall more than
give feet" in depths and destroy all
with whom they come in contact.

The fact that the growth of Owes
so during the present season is un-
precedented, is attracting public at
tention in all parts of the State.
The editor of The TIMES was told
last Saturday in Detroit by COM
mercial agent that he had never seen
such marked evidence of a healthy
growth as were apparent at the pres
ent time in Owosso. For this there
are several reasons that our citizens
should seriously contemplate. First,
we have a Common Council that is
liberal in making appropriations
when they will be used to push for
ward legitimate public improvements
that will be lasting in their character.
At the same time the Council have
been so judicious in their action that
up to this date no loan has been nee
essary to meet the ordinary and ex-
traordinary expenditure of the season,
which is better than could reasonably
have been expected. Second, the
people by almost a unanimous vote
have shown their appreciation of
public improvements. Third, the
wealthy citizens are using their pri-
vate means to build up fine blocks,
new and beautiful homes, and to i'm
prove old ones to an extent not
equalled in the State by the people
of any other city or town. Fourth,
the manufacturing companies Of our
city are pushing their business to
that point where the goods manufac.
tured in Owosso are sought after by
the retail! trade in all parts of the
Union to such an extent that the
shops are months behind their orders
