The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-10-26

The Democratic managers in this
state know that the electoral vote of
Michigan will go to Mckinley by
large plurality. They are not trying
to carry the state for Bryan, and they
have less hopes of eleoting their state
ticket. What they are really working
for is to make break in the Michigan
congressional delegation. They hope to
elect one congressman at least and for
this purpose Wellington Il. Burt was
nominated in the Eighth district. 1t
was thought that despite his vulner-
able points his money might carry him
through and the Doodle campaign which
Mr.. Burt has inaugurated in this dis
trict has this purpose in view. Hence
it is of the utmost Importance that
every Republican, every honest Demo-
craft who does not wish the district to
be represented in congress by man
pledged to free silver, to the shame
less and cowardly abandonment of
the obligations imposed by the treaty
Of Paris, use every effort he can to
secure the defeat of Mr.. Burt.

SPLENDID COMPLIMENT

Paid to Republican Administrations
by Hon. Wellington Il. Burt.
In his Owosso speech, Oct. 3, w.
r. Burt said: Thanks be to the great
men that have been guided. They
have guided us Alright. We have be
come a. world power; we have reached
out and are the happiest people on
earth"
No stronger testimonial to the poll
cies of the Republican party could be
given. We have indeed become
world power, solely through the sue
ccssful policies of the Republican ad-
illustrations from Lincoln to Mex in
ley. We have reached out and In con-
formity to the resolution which MIR.
Burt introduced in the state senate In
February, 1898, have taken I'm the
Haw allan islands, though ne now de.
clares that 1--WE wanted no foreign
lands" He has changed his mind on
this point since 1898, when he was In
the state senate.

DO YOU WANT A cHANGE.

Eight years ago the people wanted
a change. They got what they wanted.
The country was swept by a tidal wave
of financial ruin. Thousands OF ind us.

millions OF bonds were issued, while
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-10-26

Mr.. Burt would not be a safe man
in congress because he stands upon
the same platform and advocates ana
endorses the same pernicious doctrines
that are held by w. J. Bryan. Mr..
Burt would vote in congress for free
silver and all the other quack rene
dies of Bryan for killing prosperity
and lowering respect for the American
flag at home and abroad. These are
good and sufficient reasons why
Burt ought to be permitted to remain
at home.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-10-26

Burt is opposed to trusts, because,
well, because Bryan says so. 1t is
understood, however, that as "busl-
ness proposition Mr.. Burt's oppo-
sition applies only to those trusts
with which he is not connected, or
ia which he Is not interested.

tions which have obtained under the
administration OF William Mckinley,
go to the polls Nov. q and vote for
Bryan and Burt.

The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1900-10-26

Mr.. Burt said in his speech at owes
so, oct. 3, that he was not there to
talk on the silver question, "but it
is burning issue here today all the
same" And Bryan says the Democratic
party stands today where it stood in
1895 on the gold standard.

sition in Saginaw.

THE MEN WHO WOULD SUFFER

THE MEN WHO WOULD SUFFER
In all their fine heroics the Demo
craSic spellbinders, from Mr.. Bryan
down to wellington r. Burt, have
thrown out no suggestion as to what
they propose to give the workingman
now enjoyed. With Bryan's election
that prosperity would inevitably end.
and as one Socialist writer put it,
"panic unspeakable' ensue. Now it
is all very well TO work up steam over
the imaginary woes Of the Filipinos
or tile saddle colored niggers,' as
the Bryanitc Chicago Chronicle calls
them, but what particular benefit
would an American prOtectorate over
the Philippines be to the workingman
looking for employment, and the fam
lily looking for bread?
The experiences Of the country from
1893 ia 1897 are not likely to be
forgotten in this generation. IL was a
black and calamitous time OF ruin,
misery and restitution. The working
man was, as he always, is, the chief
sufferer, tho cry for relief went up
in vain. And yet President Cleveland
was conservative man. What then
would be the condition OF affairs
with such a dangerous theorist and
weathercock as William Jennings Bry-
an in the saddle? There would be u
general crash, and the workingman
ought to know by experience who
would be the first, last and all the
time sufferer. Now is the time to con-
slider these things, before the dam
age is done. And remember that Burt
stands with Bryan.

The New Mexican has just received a
copy of the new catalog of the New

chanic Arts at Mesilla Park from
which it appears that under the pres
ent board of regents, presided over by
Ex-Governor Prince, the institution has
made substantial progress, and, useful
as it has been in the past, is now in a
condition to be much more serviceable
to the people Of the territory than ever
before.
MORE THAN A LOCAL INSTITU-
TION.
In view of the fact that one still some
times hears it spoken of as a local in
stitution, the benefit of which chiefly
accrues to the people of the town of
Las Cruces and of the neighboring dis
tricts, it is interesting to learn that
thirty-three towns and most of the
counties of the territory are represent

dozen states and territories of the
Union, and several states of Mexico

LOOKING FOR MICA.
Cleveland Manufacturers Who Are Willing
TO Paw Good Price for It.

| H. w. Fleming, of Cleveland, o., for
merly interested in mica mines near
Petaca, arrived at the Exchange hote
last night, accompanied by p. w. Nc
| Donald and S. H. Schmuck, also OF
Cleveland. They are here to examine
| into several mining propositions. Mr..
Fleming is connected with the Standard
Mica Company, which operates a group
of claims near the Denver & Rio Grande
line in Rio Arriba county, on what was
until recently known as the Petaca
grant Their company originally made
the locations, thinking they were on
public domain, but when the grant
claim was set up they paid M. z. Far
well $1,000 for a quitclaim from the
grant. Mr.. Fleming thinks the recent
grant is cut from $4,000 to less than
600 acres, will induce a flood of pros
pectors to invade the Tres Piedras re-
gion. His company's mines are making
regular shipments of mica to Denver
and Cleveland. Last week 10000 pounds
We're shipped. It's chief uses nowadays
are for electrical purposes and for the
manufacture of wallpaper. The best
mica for electric purposes is imported
from India and from Canada, tn. lat
ter being a bronze mica, which is much
| in favor in the industrial lines. Some
of the mica shipped from New Mexico
| is used for electrical purposes, but the
bulk of it is ground for the wallpaper
manufacturers. Occasionally a choice
pocket is opened that yields a high
grade of sheet mica, and this goes into
the makeup of illuminated stoves and
lamp chimneys. However, there is not
much profit in this feature of the busi-
ness, because of the care that must be
used in handling the mica, and prepar-
| ing it for market so that the best de-
mand for New Mexico mica at this time
! comes from the wallpaper people and
| the manufacturers of electric appli-
ances. I'VE are in the market for good
| mica" said Mr.. Fleming, "all the time,
| anywhere. If 1 could contract for 10000
pounds here to-day at 81 per pound I
would be glad to do so.'

sues FOR $4,000.
Patrick H. Loughran Brings Suit Against
Two Attorneys.

| Patrick Fl. Loughran, clerk in the
| United States land office, this afternoon
filed in the district court two damage
suits, one against District Attorney
| Robert G. Gortner and another against
| Thomas G. Curtin, a young lawyer
| otiicing with the district attorney,
wherein he charges them with alienat-
ing the affections of his wife, Claire
Belle Loughran. and asks damages in
the sum of $4,000 from each of the de-
PENDANTS. The plaintiff alleges that up
to July last his wife was at all times
a chaste, pure and virtuous woman, an
affectionate and loving wife, but that
upon July 3, and every day and night
since until and including July 10. Gort-
ner and Curtin called at his home,
knowing him to be absent therefrom
and out of town, and supplied her with
wine, beer and intoxicating liquors, and
wickedly persuaded, seduced and de-
bauched her, the then lawful wife of
| this plaintiff, thus maliciously intrud-
ing to injure him, Loughran, and 10 de-
| prive him of the comfort, fellowship,
! love and assistance of his wife, where
| fore he asks the court to award him
damages in the sums stated, together
with interest and cost of suit.
| The friends of Messrs. Gortner and
| Curtin claim that they will be easily
able to clear themselves of the charges
against them.
Mr.. Gortner has entered appearance
for himself and for Mr.. Curtin, who Is
absent in New York at present, but will
return to push, together with Mr.. Gort-
ner. the case against them to a speedy
conclusion in order to vindicate them
selves from this attack upon their rep
utatiOn.
