you have reason to believe that YOU

Things to be remembered next
Monday. That railroad competi-
ton is the life of every place. 2. That
there is from Owosso no competition
between existing roads: everything
being pooled. 3. That the Wabash
system with which connections will
be made by the T., A. A. & N. rail-
way, does not pool earnings with any
other system; but paddles its own
canoe every time. 4. By securing
the construction of the T., A. A. &
n. railway the present lines running
through Owosso will be compelled TO
abandon the pooling arrangement,
and each be on the lookout for all
the business ii can get at reasonable
rates. $. This alone will save the
business men Of Owosso thousands of
dollars each year.
