K. o. T. M. Picnic Near Chaplin.

The Maccabee picnic given in Hoff-
mans grove near Chaplin last week
Thursday was an unqualified success in
every respect. Over thousand Mac
cabees, their wives, children and friends
took part in the festivities of the day
which were carried out in way credit
able to both the Knights and the Ladies
of the Maccabees.
A very interesting program was car
ried out. An address was given by
Rev. j. w. Myers. A violin solo was
played by Russell Bryan, who pleased
his audience so well that he was COM
PEELED to respond to an encore. Miss
Ada O'Dell, of Oakley, recited Maud
Muller and the Misses Allie Card, Nora
McClear and Iva Blakely sang a very
pretty trio. An Elsie choir of six
voices also sang selection.
Rev. Mr.. Frye, of Oakley, gave an
address dwelling on the growth of the
order in Michigan it having more than
doubled in comparatively short time.
1t is today, he said, the greatest or.
ganization in the state, and the ladies
are almost catching up in numbers with
the Knights. A recitation on the sub
ject of woman's rights was given by
Miss Fannie Munroe, of Elsie, and the
Elsie band furnished selection.
Charles Rawles, of Port Huron, as
sistant editor of the Michigan Mac
cabee, made speech telling of the re-
markable growth of the order in the
state. Over six thousand new mem
bers have been added in Michigan
since last January and the membership
now numbers over eighty thousand
distributed among nearly a thousand
tents He spoke of the large number
of the weaker old line companies which
had become bankrupt but believed that
the Michigan Great Camp should lay
up reserve. The action of the order
in paying in full all Cuban claims was
referred to as was also the fact that the
different tents kept up the dues of the
members who were at the front. A
, further idea of the wonderful extent to
which fraternal affairs have gone is
given by the estimate that there are
now nearly six million souls which
claim membership in secret or benefi-
cial orders.
A song was given by the Chaplin tent
and some other short speeches were
made among them being one by
Representative Joseph w. Fordney, Of
this congressional district, who pleased
his hearers by some of his ininitable
stories and gave them some more seri-
Gus thoughts as we'll, which were we'll
received.
The only accident to mar the day
took place during a ball game played
near the grove. Len Sheldon of
Elsie, who was catching got his left
hand between the ball and bat and had
to leave the game. The wound on his
hand was bad one, the back being
cut across.

THE OWOSSO TIMES.
EDMUND o. DEWEY. EDITOR.
Owosso. MICH, FRIDAY, AUG Is. 1899.

The Owosso Press in this weeks issue
seems to congratulate itself on the posi-
bility of having real democratic party to
serve again next year, but in view of the
requisites which the Press holds up, the
abandonment of dead and discredited is
sues" and the published utterances of the
present leader of democracy, the unification
of the party seems as distant and sbadOwy
as ever. OF course the Press referred to
the discaIdlpg of the defunct free silver
issue, but the evening before the day of its
publication, Mr.. Bryan, in speaking 10 an
audience of four thousand five hundred
people at Des Moines, Iowa, said, while
talking on trusts, that If the democratic
party neglected the silver question to at
tend to trusts 1t would rightly forfeit the
confidence of the people, and he declared
that the money trust was the biggest trust
of all anyway. The result is that II Mr..
Bryan retains his domineering influence
over the democratic party, As it seems clear
that he will, there can be no united de-
mocracy in next years campaign. The
war horses of the party, the successors OF
the men who made real Jeffersonian de-
mocracy what 1t always was, party which
stood for sound money of the best kind, can
no more put up with the democracy of Bry-
an next year, according to the statements of
Bryan himself, then they could two years

New Police Officers.

It's Marshal Ross row and has been
since the council meeting Tuesday night
when Officer Zenas H. Ross was promoted
to take the place of Marshal Lovett whose
resignation was accepted. Whatever may
be said of any past marshals there is no
denying the ability and all around good
qualities of the new marshal. Mr.. Ross,
while still young man, has already had
considerable experience in responsible posi-
lions and has backbone and self reliance.
And best of all he is a thoroughly clean
man.
The night force has also been changed.
Mr.. George Griffith, Of the west side, sue
ceeds Mr.. Ross in that part of the city. He
is we'll known all over the city and
especially among westsiders, among whom
he numbers host of friends. He has
been deputy sheriff for several years and
will enter on his work with some practical
experience behind him and q record which
speaks well for his success. In the down
town district Officer Dell has been succeeded
by Mr.. Louis Alderton who has already
had some experience as night oficer in the
down town district, having been appointed
temporarily during the suspension of
Oh1cer Dell few weeks ago. The new
force gives promise Of being . good one In
3very respect.

Tax Commission After Information.

The board of state tax commissioners
assessing officers throughout the state ask.
ing earnest cooperation in carrying into
effect act No. 1874 of the public acts for the
state of Michigan for the year 1899. being
an amendatory act to the general tax laws
of the state; also the other amendatory acts
of the legislature for this year, aud all
passed with view to solve the problem
of equal and just taxation, and more ef
fectually to carry into operation the scope
and scheme of the general tax laws of the
state, of which they are doubtless familiar.
The amendatory acts are mailed with the
circular.
Attention is called to the fact that no
little innovation has been made In the line
Of taxation, whereby all the property of
the state shall appear upon the rolls to
meet its just share of the public burden.
The general tax law has been materially
changed in many particulars, and notably
section Is, requiring assessing officers to
obtain from every person, of full age and
sound mind, the property statement, under
oath. written and subscribed to. The
former law was permissive, or they ''may"
do so; but the present law is mandatory, or
they ''shalp do 80.
The assessor cannot legislate; he has
solely to do with administering the law as
he finds 1t. The tax commissioners will
cheerfully receive from supervisors or
assessors any suggestion or complaint,
