A GENIAL OFFICIAL.
Shiawassee County's Register of
Deeds as Popular as he has Been
Efficient.

If all the readers of this paper were
acquainted with the present popular
and efficient register of deeds there
would be no use whatever in The
TINES even mentioning his name. But
there is the whole story in nutshell.
Mr.. Jay ID. Royce, who is now candi-
date for re election to the office of
register of deeds is one of those too
rare men who can count practically
every acquaintance as their friend.
To his acquaintance therefore The
TINES has but to say that 1t wishes them
to remember that Mr.. Royce's name is
to be on the ticket which they will be
given to vote. on week from next
Tuesday, and that will be sufficient, for
they will not need to have a suggestion
made to them as to how it should be
voted. To those who are not acquaint-
ed with him it can say that somehow or
other they have missed knowing one OF
the most whole souled, jovial, and
pleasant men whom it is possible to
meet in this or any other county. Mr..
Royce is man who is not in the habit OF
hunting very hard for gloomy view OF
things. He generally sees the brightest
side Of things first and does not takethe
trouble to look the matter over with the
express purpose of seeing if there is not
also dark side to it. Then, some way
or other he seems to expect others to
see the bright side just as he does and
makes them feel it, so that before they
know it they too are seeing only that
side of affairs. But that is only an in
dication of the way in which it has
come about that his list of friends
ranges from one corner of the county
to the other. His work in the Office OF
register of deeds, however, is alone
enough to merit for him the reelection
for which he has been nominated 10y
his party even if he were the most
groutchy individual on that or any
other ticket. The work of the registers
Office is important; in fact there is not
another office in the county where 1t Is
mole important that the records be
kept with the utmost accuracy than In
this Office. Here it is that are kept the
deeds which are the only protection
which both rich and poor alike have fol
the safety of their homes. and mistakes
in this Office might be the cause, as has
been known to be the case in other
counties where the Office has not beer
in such careful hands as Shiawassee's
Office has been in for years past, OF
costly litigation over titles and muct
hardship. In Jay d. Royce. Shiawas
see has at once most popular AND
gentlemaply register of deeds and a.
the same time one of the most careful
and painstaking officials who ever un
dertook to be responsible for the re
cords of the deeds and titles of the
property of his fellow citizen in any
county. He should receive a majority
even larger than that of two years ago

The democrats are anxious to make big
outcrv about the trusts but incidentally they
are shouting SO loudly that they do not hear
the questions asked of them as to why,
when they had chance to enact legislation
for the control of the trusts, they would
have nothing to do with them whatever.
And, too, they are saying very little about
the cotton bale trust In the south or the ice
trust In the north,

This is not an extract from Republi-
can platform;not at ALL 1t is part of the
platform adopted by the Democrats at
Mt. Clemens, Mich, in June 1898. 1t
contrasts strongly with what these

port if they follow the vagaries of Mr..
Bryan.

Don't lose sight OF the fact that every
voter at the coming election has an
opportunity to help in the election of a
United States senator. Every vote for
state senator and representative means one
more vote which will help elect either a
republican or democratic successor to
Senator Mcmillan.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-10-26

Don't forget for moment that vote for
Mckinley Is only vote half cast unless
with 1t goes a vote for a republican con-
gresham and not more han two-thirds cast
unless with both OF thore ~ votes for q

The Saginaw Courier-Herald says: One
handicap to the candidacy of Mr.. Fordney
in making the campaign is the lack Of
means. Mr.. Fordney is man of moderate
means and is unable to complete with the
Doodle campaign which his opponent is
putting up. He is unable to bid against
Burt for newspaper support, as the case of
the Vassar Times illustrates, the editor of
that newspaper demanding $3.50 as con-
sideration. The Times is now supporting
Mr.. Burt and the reader can draw his own
conclusions. The national republican con-
gressional committee is unable to put a
dollar into this district, while on the other
hand as long ago as last spring the national
democratic congressional committee picked
out the Eighth district in which to make
fight and material financial support is being
extended to the millionaire railroad
president, who is making the race in this
district. 1t is reported that as high as 500
is being paid to men to travel through the
district in the interest of Mr.. Burt, soliciting
votes. 1t Is also said on authority that
farmers have been hired by the Burt
managers at $15 each to haul voters to the
polls on election day. Mr.. Fordney is Fore
ed to depend upon the patriotism and
principle of the people.

The voters of Michigan have a chance
this year to choose for governor between
sleek, we'll fed corporation lawyer, nomi-
mated by a party which makes the most
astonishing grimaces over the trusts of the
country but which failed to put single
antitrust law on the United States statute
books when it had the opportunity, chance
to choose between man who never had to
get out aud hustle by hard manual labor
for the daily bread for himself and family
and, on the other hand, man who has
worked his way up by slow and persevering
labor from position in the lumber camps,
where he was employed as any other laborer,
TO a position where he is the manager of
large business interests. Mayor Maybury
NAY be good lawyer. That he is smooth
and oily speaker no one can deny. But in
his course through life he has not had the
hard bumps aud thrusts which the Ameri-
can citizen grows to expect and which 1T
takes to make a man prominently one or
the people. Col. Bliss has been through
the mill, to use an expressive American
phrase. He not only worked his way up
from D ,sition in which he was the most
ordinary kind of a laboriug man to the
position he now holds as man of widely
diversified interests, which he manages
with the same personal care which brought
those interests under his control, but he
also found time to serve his country during
the long and trying years when to serve
ones country meant to give ones life to II,
day after day, and over and over again.
He Is the common, plain business man with
all the business mans instincts for the care
ful over sight OF the business under his con-
troll. When he speaks, he speaks plainly
and to the point, as he did few weeks ago
when be made one of the briefest and yet
most satisfactory and withal most explicit
statements OF his position on the question
of equal taxation which II has been the 10
of the citizens OF any state to read. There
was no bubble In that short statement and
there was no Misunderstanding It. The
other candidate makes speeches. His oratory
| is pleasant and dreamy to listen to, but the
American voter has grain OF plain common
sense In his make up and has the reputa
ton for being able TO tell the difference be
| tween Just that kind Of oily. smooth. tall
and the plain common sense speech whict
comes from the heart which Is behind u
| and which is right. Col. Bliss Is preem
nently the candidate Of the people and cleo
! ton day is going to show that the p opls
/, realize the truth OF that statement.
