PATRIOTIC CONCERT AT THE ROCK

PATRIOTIC CONUEKT AT THE KOCK.
 The grand patriotic concert by Atwater's orchestra at Savln Rock attracted a large crowd of sight-seers and lovers of good music. The shore front and grove were H. luminated with over TOO lanterns. The or chestral programme was continually encored especially the patriotic selections. The cleo tric fountain in red, white and blue coloTs played between the numbers
 The Apt quartette received merited ap- plause. Great enthusiasm was aroused by the playing of the national airs and the unfuriing of a large American flag. The firing of cannon and q pyrotechnic display on the water concluded the exercises of the eYpninC.

county Nov. IA, 1857, and is, therefore,
native of the county as we'll as state.
He graduated at the Corunna high
school, and thereupon entered the office
of Judge Hugh McCurdy for the study
of law, and also studied in the office of
the late prosecuting attorney, A. r.
Mcbride. He was admitted to the
Shiawassee county bar. after passing an
unusually creditable examination in
1881. He at once commenced the practice
of his profession in company with Odell
Chapman. and the company thus form
ed has become one of the best firms in
central Michigan.
In 1887 he served in the state legisla-
ture as Representative from the second
district of this county, and made most
excellent record. He was elected prose
cutting attorney in 1892, and reelected
in 1894 making record that any man
might be proud of.
At meeting of the Republican con
vention this summer he was unani-
mously chosen as chairman of the re-
publican county committee an honor
that is seldom given to candidate for
that position. The office sought him
instead of him seeking the office. He
is also prominent mason, having
served as master of Owosso Lodge, F.
q A. NJ, and is a member of Corunna
Commandery, Knights Templar.
Mr.. Watson is an able advocate and
wise counselor. In the latter capacity
he won distinction while prosecuting
attorney He is clear forcible and
logical speaker, and seems by intuition,
as it were, to grasp and explain the in
tricacies of the law. His quick percep-
ton and keen logic have made him
power before courts and juries.
He is eminently and happily endowed
with the qualities that go to make an
ideal Attorney General. His extensive
acquaintance in adjacent counties and
friendships formed while member of
the State Legislature, will be of much
aid in securing for him this nomination.
His friends in Shiawassee county are
enthusiastic over his prospective nomi-
nation.

The enormous balance Of trade which this
country has enjoyed during the last twelve
months has resulted in the largest imports-
tons of gold in the history of the country.
Under the operations of the Wilson bill,
when the democratic party was in power in
all branches of the government, the Oppo-
site Of this statement was trus. The larg-
est exports of gold ever known IN the his
tory of the country occurred during the
twelve months of the fiscal year, ending
June 80, 1895.

The democratic state convention of Texas
in its state platform, paragraph Q, declares:
I'VE denounce the republican party tor the
passage of the Dingley tariff" This short
paragraph is susceptible of various inter-
pretations. Why do the democrats of
Texas denounce the Dingley tariff? We
answer, the principal reason is. that 1t has
fulfilled the promises of Its friends in pro-
ducing revenue sufficient to meet the cur.
rent demands of the government. This, of
course, is not wholesome to the democratic
party. They would prefer the Wilson bill,
which failed by s262, 900. 900 in little less
than four years in producing sufficient
revenue to meet the public demands.

One feature of the new tariff act which
caused especial complaint among those OPP
posed to the protective theory was the
assertion that the duty which was placed on
hides would increase the price of shoes. In
answer to this 1t is only necessary to call
attention to the price table recently estab-
lished In Duns Review, quoting the prices
of boots and shoes from June LIST, 1897, to
July 9th, 1898, which shows that In almost
every class the price Of shoes is lower than
in the months before the adoption of the
Dingley law which placed duty on i'm.
ported hides. 1t proves that while the
farmer has been protected in the matter of
hides, the purchaser Of shoes has not been
compelled to suffer.
