When the committee having 10

State Convention for owosso.

The State Convention of the Prohibition
Party will be held i'm OwossO Aug. 10.
This is the first time our city has been
honored with state convention of any
party, Owosso Is centrally located, good
rail road facilities and the only question
that could be raised against holding conven-
tions here, is the question can we entertain
them? Our largest hall is too small but in
this case will answer, our hotels are none of
them large and cannot possibly entertain all
who will probably be here. OwOsso has never
refused to entertain the stranger who came
within her gates. When hotels have no
more room, the private houses have been
opened and all entertain till our name for
hospitality is second to no city i'm the state.
Leading prOhibitiOnists did not believe
OwossO could entertain this convention but
were promised that private houses would
take care of all not accommodated at the
hotel.
Many citizens, regardless of party affilia-
tion, have already offered to entertain both
delegates and visitors and it is firmly believ-
ed that simply calling attention to this mat
ter will open the houses of this city to al
who may come.
'Tis not charity asked but open hos.
pitality for which delegates and visitors
will expect to pay and when the convention
is closed and its members have gone to theil
several homes may one and all have only
pleasant remembrances of the beautiful
city on the Shiawassee.
