The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1897-04-09

The TIMES naturally takes pride in the
election of one of It's staff as alderman in
the second ward. A newspaper man Is
sure, If he Is active, or has opinions and is
fearless In expressing them, to lose some
friends in his own party. This is true in
this election, when some of the men who
urged Mr.. Dewey's nomination, worked and
voted against him, yet he comes out with a
vote equal to that Of his party, running
ahead of some candidates. His opponent
was man from one Of the factories where
he is popular and known as man of good
judgment. Mr.. Hoenshell secured almost
the solid prohibition vote, having been for
years connected with that party. and with the
Is votes cast for the gold democrat candidate,
Mr.. Dewey has majority of 33. 1t is sell
dom that newspaper man wins, and we
feel grateful to the friends who stood by
and have sympathy for the republicans who
opposed him to their own harm.

FOR A NOBLE CAUSE!
OWOssO Citizens Are at
Last Aroused.
Monument to the Soldiers of the Re-
belliOn Soon to Be Dedicated.

Tbirty.six years have passed since the
noblest and best citizens Of this republic
went forward to put down the vilest evil
that ever existed in the nations life.
Thirty-twO years have passed since the
remnant Of the most wonderful armies OF
history returned in peace to their homes.
Owosso has honored these men in all these
years, but in no visible way have they paid
tribute to those who have departed to an
other and better world. On the 31st of
May it is proposed to dedicate to their mem;
DRY a monument which will represent the
loye we have for these heroes. The Wo-
mans Relief Corps, that band of brave and
earnest women, who are relieving the dis
tress of the veterans in these declining years
of their lives, started fund some years ago
and when it amounted to $500, the work
was taken up by the citizens, and commit
tees appointed and an appeal issued for
funds. The Argus very cemmendably
started a citizens fund, and through per-
sistent work has pushed the matter until
now all but about $3.50 of the cost, $500, Is
raised. We urge our readers 10 send to the
Argus or to us any amount they feel able to
pay toward this fund and let the necessary
means be placed Immediately in the COM
mittee's hands.

Our informant said that few days ago an

he bought five years ago, going In debt

right management, fulfilled the contract
and is To-Day the owner OF good 80 acre

The Bennington correspondent of the
Laingsburg News, writes: Nelson Cook.
residing near Pittsburg, died March 20, of
paralysis. He was In his 91st year. Mr..
Cook suffered similar stroke, from which
he rallied to fairly good health for so old a
gentleman. About ten days ago he suffered
another stroke which soon resulted In death.
His wife passed away about seven years
ago. Mr.. Cook has lived on the farm
where he passed away, half century and
we have lived nearly 46 years In his neigh
borhood and don't think he had an enemy
in the world. He seemed kind and oblig-
ing at all times and we think that all who
came for favor never went away empty
handed. We can say of Mr.. Cook that he
was kind neighbor, a good citizen, kind
and indulgent father, and a sincere chris.
tian, thus he has gone to his reward.

And Mr.. Lockhart expanded his broad
chest and smiled. "Look here" he con-

on a level with his head, kicked it easily
with the foot that used to be lame. No
better picture of perfect health and abound

The attempt of the Detroit Tribune and
other free silver papers to prove that many
democrats who desired to vote the free
silver ticket, by mistake, voted the national
lgold) democratic ticket, is too ridiculous 10
be considered for moment. lndead, 1t oc'
ours to us that members of the free silver
party will resent being told that they were
too ignorant TO vote the ticket they desired
to, especially as the vignettes used were the
sane as those used at the fall election.
The fact is that thousands of democrats in
Michigan and other states have come to real.
ixe that the cry for free coinage Of silver Is
the greatest political humbug Of the day.
