&C. Tompkins, of Lansing, receiver for
Michigan of the Granite State Proyident
Association, was in Owosso, Wednesday.
An appeal has been taken from the decision
of the United States court relative to the af-
fairs of this association and its Michigan
creditors. The decision was that the state
receiver should turn over the Michigan as
sets to the general receiver, leaving Michi-
gan policy holders to lose more than half
they had paid into the concern. Under the
opinion of the attorney general the Michi-
gan members of the association would have
been paid In full, and it is this provision of
Michigan statute that is being contended
for in the appeal. In the meantime Owosso
investors can only wait and hope.

Ann Arbor Courier: 1t is stated that the
free silverites of Owosso are aching to hear
Bryan once again, and an attempt is being
made to get him there at picnic with the
idea that he will redeem himself, for it will
be remembered that he made dismal fail
ure of it when he appeared there during his
candidacy. Say, you Owossoites, Stan.
Parkill can entertain you better than Bryan
can, any day. 1t isn't necessary to import a
man.

pons. He said, "When we come to town
or city and offer them almost free service II

of Is cents to Detroit. 10 cents in one coun-

ask this for helper to build line but as
an appreciative fee. We ask nothing until
our line is completed to this point. You
are now paying 40 cents to Detroit, and why
should not the business men look at 1t as a
favorable proposition. We have had men

made but never fulfilled. We now leave ii
with the citizens and will want definite
