THE OWOSSO TIMES.
Before another issue of The TIMES goe.
EDMUND o. DEWEY, EDITol

Before another issue OF The TIMES goes
to press, the county officers who were
elected at the general election of last Novem-
Der will assume the management of the
affairs in the county Offices at Corunna.
In the important Offices there are but few
changes The Office of the chief executive
of the county, the sheriff, passes from the
hands of the present popular republican
sheriff, Monroe l.. ScOugale, to democrat
whose popularity'is equally beyond question
MI ScOugale will take up work in one of
the Durand banks at the expiration of his
term. In the clerks Office the tables are
turned and the Office passes from the hands
of democrat, Mr.. Seth Beers, who has
been an obliging and painstaking clerk for
the last two years, to the hands of the re-
publican who was elected to that office,
Mr.. John Y. Martin. Mr.. Martin will
make one of the most careful and painstak-
ing of clerks and his we'll known desire to
do all in his power as an official to serve the
public will add to the popularity which he
has already possessed for several years. In
the Office Of prosecuting attorney the change
is again from democratic incumbent to
republican official. Mr. A. L. Chandler
lays down the duties of the Office which are
taken up by Mr.. Austin E. Richards, Mr..
Richards enters upon the duties of the Office
with the good will of all and will make
good record for careful work and economy.
None of the retiring officers were candi-
dates for reelection, fact which makes
their retirement seems far different to them
than would have been the case had they
been retired by the voters whom they bad
served. The other more important offices
are filed by the same men who have filed
them before. Mr.. Jay ID. Royce will con-
tinue to serve the public with gsdness in
the registers office. Mr.. Richard +. Kay
viii continue to Eeep careful eye on the
county's cash. And Judge Matthew Bush
will still attend to his duties as judge of
probate to the continued satisfaction of all
who are brought to that Office for the trans
action of business. To all of the officers
who have been retained, and to the new
officers who begin their duties next week,
THE TINES extends congratulations and
the greetings of the season. 1t wishes all a
Happy New Year.

Death of !. l.. Peck.

Isaac l.. Peck died at his home 615 North
Washington street Tuesday morning after
an illness extending over period of over a
year. TIE funeral services were held at
the house at 1870 Yesterday afternoon and
at the Baptist church at two o'clock. Rev.
G. Il. Hanks officiated, supplying the place
of the pastor of the Baptist church who lost
his own daughter Wednesday morning.
Mr. Peck was born in Saratoga Springs,
N. Y, in 1881 and came to Michigan when
he was twenty-five years of age. For
about nine years he lived in Grand Rapids
where his marriage occurred in 1858. In
1862 he came to this city and carried on the
hardware business for several years. In
1872 he was appointed postmaster but re-
signed the Office the next year in order to
give all of his time to the lumber business
which he was then carrying on with bis
yards located on part of the ground now
covered by the Owosso Carriage Company
factory. Later he removed the yards TO
their present location on South Water
street. Here he carried on the business
until comparatively recently when he was
compelled to give up on account of his fail.
ing health. Mr.. Peck Is survived by his
wife Harriet l.. Peck, and by one sor,
Romeo, and a daughter, Mrs. w. j. Post,
both of the latter living 10 Chicago. M.

denomination for more than fifty years and
IN his business life was honest and upright

Postmaster Eveleth, of Corunna.

Mr.. Erwin Eveleth received a letter
from Congressman Fordney Saturday
which was enough of a Christmas pres
ent to satisfy him for some time to come
for it was the assurance that when the
term of the present postmaster of Co.
runna Carl Pickert, expires on the 9th
of July next, he would be nominated
as his successor.
There had been no small amount of
speculation, especially since election. as
to who would be Mr. Pickert's success
or in the Corunna post Office, and for
several weeks past there has been no
small effort put forth on the part of two
or three good men who were more than
merely willing to serve the Corunna
population as its postmaster Of these
candidates, Mr.. Eveleth has been per-
haps the one who has made the least
stir, possibly the memory of the days
which he and Congressman Fordney
had spent together in the woods look.
ing land, years before Mr.. Fordney
knew another man in this county, hav-
ing something to do with the feeling
on the part of Mr.. Eveleth that his
friend, the Congressman, would not be
particular that he should bestir himself
to secure the endorsement of every man
in either the county or even Corunna
itself. At any rate before the announce.
ment was made 1t was felt that Mr..
Eveleth had not made quite as active a
canvass for endorsements as had the
other men although it was known of
course that he had more than enough to
show that it would be decidedly pleasing
to the citizens of Corunna to have him
serve them as their postmaster for the
next four years. Both the other can.
didates felt the strength of Mr.. Eyeleth's
position both from the fact of his work
for the party, his popularity, and his
well known friendship with Congress-
man Fordney.
Mr. Eveleth was born in Genesee
county, New York, in 1S42 and came to
Michigan eleven years later, going to
Saginaw about 1861 where he was EN-.
plol ed about the lumber docks. His
marriage occurred in that city in 1866.
In 1871 he came to Corunna which has
since been his home. From 1885 to 1891
he was engaged in the general merchan-
disc business in Corunna but the great
er part of the time since his residence
in the city has been SPENT in the exercise
of his profession of land locker He
has however served his city as alder
man, mayor, and member of the board
of education. He is prominent

For Another Election.

During the coming week while three
of the important county offices are
changing hands and the duties of the
others are again being taken up by old
and tried officials, attention may be
properly called to the work OF another
county officer whose term does not ex.
pire for six months yet, but whose sue.
cessor will be elected at the coming
spring election, now not so very far
away. HE TIMES refers to an official
who has proved himself in the last four
years to be one of the best, most con-
scientious, and hard working school
commissioners which this or any other
county in the state ever had, Mr.. o. l..
Bristol Mr.. Bristol has passed through
the various grades of student and
teacher in the district and village
schools of the county, has had the
training of the states normal college,
has shown his executive ability as prin-
cipal of the Morrice schools, but most
of all by his work during the last four
years as school commissioner of Shia-
wassee county He is young man of
energy and determination which is
combined in a pleasing degree with
tact and the kind of plain common
sense which the taxpayers of the county
show they appreciate. He is careful
and competent, has the best interests of
the country schools of the county at
heart, looks out for the interest of the
taxpayers pocket book at the same
time. and has friends in every part of
the county. There will probably not be
the slightest opposition to his renomin-
alton, while his reelection will OF
course be foregone conclusion. When
the county can keek man of Mr.. Bris-
tolls ability in the position he now holds
it cannot afford to make any mistake
by trying new man no matter how

Would you oblige me by saying Empire

normal cost Of general election at
G2.OO0, 600 Curiously enough. this seems
to have been the cost Of a general cleo
ton in the eighteenth century. In April.
176S. the expense OF the parliamentary
elections held in that year was calculated
to have been f2.000.000. and was SO an
nounced in The Scots Magazine. That
the cost may have remained stationary
is not so incredible when we consider
the sums that used to be lavished to Sc
cure votes in small electorate.
A case in point Is furnished by, an
electoral breakfast given in Westmore-
land in 1851. on the day of an election.
The spread comprised, am ing other
Gargantuan supplies, thirty lone pigeon
pies, twenty-four sirloins of beef. thr-
teen quarters Of veal. forty-four quar-
