Perhaps the next time the democrats will
nominate democrat.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-11-02

In the candidacy OF Richard +. Nay,
the republicans of Shiawassee county
have candidate who cannot be i'm
proved on by any candidate on any
county ticket in this state. The office
is one of the most important of any in
the county, the treasurer having not
only the guardianship of the county's
funds, but being the purchasing agent
for the county as we'll. In the latter
position alone a careful man like Mr..
Kay can save the county many dollars
in the course of the two years during
which he holds Office. This is matter
which was called to the attention of the
voters of the county two years ago and
they evidently took notice of 1t at that
time. The record which Mr.. Kay has
made in that one regard has been, as
has hisIwork in every other detail, more
than satisfactory. He has done as bis
friends who knew what his past RECORD
was, claimed that he would do, saveC
the county many dollars by bis careful
scrutiny of matters which came to hi
attention in the discharge of those
| features of his duty. Mr.. Kay is ONT
of the most unassuming of men ant
would never dream of making tentl
of the claims for himself which hi
| friends made for him with perfect con
fidence. But the fact of the matter /!
that Dick Kay has never yet disappoint
| ed his friends when they had predicted
| that his work would be credi
| to them. Mr. Kay has made bette
| treasurer even than his friends sale
| that he would and he has made larg'
| number of friends during the two year
in which he has been serving the coun
! try who will see that his majority OF
4 election day is, rs 1t should be-. large
than it was 1t was two years ago.

Tha statement Is made that the demo
era have number of "roorbacks" up
their sleeves which they will attempt
to use to defeat Hon. John Robson, re
publican candidate for state senator
Mr. Robson's sterling character is toe
we'll known in Lansing where he has
lived for over fifty years, and in fact
throughout the entire county of Ingham,
for any trumped-up. misleading state
ments to have any effect there. The effect
of any roorbacks which the democrats
may spring will doubtless have no more
effect in this county where the voters
are scarcely likely to approve of that
method of conducting a campaign.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-11-02

Remember that Bryan says that the demo-
cratic party stands now where 1t did In 1896
on the silver question, and as il that were
not enough, when he was in Ann Arbor he
exclaimed In burst of passion and in
answer to a question asked him from the
audience, that he was for the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver by this country
even though alone and unaided by any other
country in the world. Any person who
thinks for one minute that there is no longer
any danger from the silver question should
reflect on the statements of the recognized
leader of the democratic party. The election
OF Bryan would mean the impending menace
of free silver from the very moment when
his election became assured.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-11-02

THE TIMES hopes that republicans,
especially those republicans who wear
the little bronze button, will do every
thing in their power to see that the full
party vote is polled for Stephen A.
Crane for sheriff The democrats have
made their boasts continually that they
were going to carry that office. THE
TIMES does not believe that they can or
will do it, but at the same time it should
be taken into consideration that they
are using every effort to win enough
republican votes by one means or
another, to elect their candidate and
defeat Mr.. Crane. Under the circum.
stances the old soldiers of the county
cannot be blamed if they, regardless of
party, make determined stand to give
this comrade of theirs one of the biggest
majorities on the republican ticket.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-11-02

1t seems that Will j. Parker is the
safest man on the county ticket to bet
on at present. The reason why there
is absolutely no chance for him to be
defeated is simply that there is no
democratic candidate running against
him. The only democrat nominee for
circuit court commissioner appears on
the official ballots opposite the name of
John b. Stockdale, of this city. How
ever the friends of Mr. Stockdale are
not worrying over his chances and
while they do not expect him to pile up
as big majority as Mr.. Parker will
have, they do expect that he will receive
as large a vote, and that will be more
than enough to elect him

The Paramount Issue-Defeat Bryan.

The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-11-02

Size the matter up carefully on every
hand. On whose word do you place
the most dependence? Do you think
that certificate signed by such men
as E. j. Cook, N. X. Potter. and Chas.
w. Shipman, or personal letters written
and signed by Hon. John j. Carton,
Hon. Scion Goodell, Hon. Geo. l.. Lusk,
Hon. S. G. Goodyear, Hon. Henry M :.
Cheever have any particular weight?
Just compare them in your own minds
with the frantic appeals to prejudice
with which a certain attorney in this
county is doing out. Consider what is
said by all of those men to whom the
county and state has looked for the
past few years for everything in the
line of reforms in the tax laws, every
one of whom has not hesitated to say
over his own signature just what he
thinks of the value of Mr.. Geo. L.
Mason's services in the last legislature
Then when you see the openness and
frankness of it all consider whether you
will still be influenced by any slyly made
tricky statements which cannot be
proved and for which no proof is even
offered. The record of Representative
Geo. T. Mason in the legislature is al
right and every opportunity has at al
times been given to every interested
man to examine it and criticise it
There has been no attempt at any time
to conceal anything. The methods
| themselves to which his opponents
seem to feel compelled to resort in order
to even attempt to defeat him are th'
highest kind of commentator and com
| pliment to Mr.. Mason's course.
