The meeting of the Michigan Republi-
can Newspaper Association at Owosso
last week was the most interesting and
enjoyable, as well as the largest at
tended of any ever held. There were
upwards of 100 republican editors
present, and after sessions covering two
days, during which various matters of
interest to the republican press and the
party were discussed, the meeting
closed with banquet at the armory, at
which 500 plates were laid, with the
compliments of the citizens of that
hustling city, and it proved an affair
not often duplicated and never excelled
for a city of its size. There were
present besides the editors, various re-
publicans of prominence from through
out the state.-Caro Advertiser.
The complimentary banquet rendered
by the citizens of Owosso was a brilli-
ant success. Nearly four hundred sat
down 70 the heavily ladened tables in
the Armory, fine menu was provided
and served by the ladies of the city.

studied and magnificently delivered,
many remarking upon the splendid
manner in which all responded. When
