A Kentucky Summer Outfit.

Many years ago Senator Blackburn
Of Kentucky1was summoned to Wash
ington in the middle Of June to look
after small matter Of patronage.
His departure was so sudden andsthe
prospect of his staying more than a
day or two away from home so remote
that he carried with him only hand
bag. But business heaped up on him
after his arrival at the capital, and he
was obliged to telegraph back a re-
quest for q trunkful Of summer CLOTH
ing. His little daughter happened to
be the only member of the family at
home when. his dispatch arrived, and,
thinking 1t her duty to respond
promptly, she packed trunk and ship
ped 1t, first slipping a note inside, as
follows:
Deer Papa-J send you all the clothes I
can find and hope you are we'll.
The trunk contained seven white
shirts, six winter scarfs, one tooth
brush, one bowie knife and two re-
voivers. 1t was a rueful outlook for
Blackburn, with the Thermometer UP
among the nineties, but he listened to
no pronxed condolences. my daugh-
ter has done right" he said. "She
sent me what real Kentucky girl re-
CARDS a suitable summer outfit for a
gentleman."-Harper's Weekly.

a walk about the city shows many
places wherethe setting out of shade
tree here and there would make a
wonderful improvement not only to the
lot in front of which it is placed but to
the entire neighborhood as well. A
most remarkable difference is seen in
many parts of the city between lots
which have been occupied for the same
length of time, side by side. One will
have trees which were set out only a
very few years ago which are now
thrifty and things of real beauty while
others will be entirely bare of any such
edornmsfft. When it is as easy as it is
about Owosso to get small trees and
good ones too it is too bad that every
home should not have its shade trees in
front of it. Even the boys and girls in
their vacation walks could find and
bring home little maple or walnut tree
which they could set out in front of
their home under the direction of their
parents and watch and care for until it
becomes large enough to care for itself
and shade them as we'll

FOR THE STATE SENATE.
Fred !. Noythway, Of Durand, An
uounoes Himself q Candidate for the
Office.

EtCo W MI
uounoes Himself Candidate for the
Office.
Fred J. Northway, one of the most
energetic and successful attorneys of
the county, has announced that he is a
candidate for the republican nomina-
ton to the State senate Mr.. North
way has always had habit of succeed
ing pretty we'll in whatever he has UNI
dertaken, and although there are APP
pearances that he will not have the
pleasure of walking up and taking the
nomination without any effort what
ever, it is safe to say that he will be
heard from at the republican conven-
ton. He is not the kind of a man to
expect something for nothing however,
much less to expect a nomination to an
Office of the Importance of State senator
without taking the trouble to inform
the members of his party in the county
that he cares enough for the nomination
to ask them for it. If he fails to receive
the nomination therefore it will not be

For Sheriff.


There appears to be at the present
time but one, candidate in the field for
the republican nomination for sheriff,
George Fl. Haskell, of this city. Two
years ago Mr.. Haskell made a close
fight for the nomination and left the
county convention with some people
counted among his friends who had not
been counted in his list before. This
year there seems to be every appearance
that his friends in every part of the
county will have the pleasure Of seeing
his name at the head of the county
ticket.
Mr. Haskellis we'll known not only in
this city but in every part of the county.
He was at one time engaged in business
in this city and for years has made his
home here, being for the greater part of
the time employed as travelling sales
man with this city for his headquarters.
He is thoroughly competent for the
Office of sheriff and would make a good
officer for the county.
Mr.. Haskell's we'll known ENJOYMENT
of good joke, whether it be one on him
or, as is most apt - be the case, on the
other fellow, has furnished more merri-
ment than that afforded by forty ordin-
airy men in tie course of their entire
combined lifetimes but no one can
accuse him of neglecting his business to
crafty his love for innocent fun. He
is one Of those Hhole hearted indiyidusls
who see the funny side of things and
brighten up moments for other--peopie
by making them also see laugh when
he is there to Introduce it. The field
seems to belong TO Mr.. Haskell by
rights and there is apparently disposi-
ton to permit the nomination to go to
him by reclamation His name more
over should add strength to the ticket
and there should be no doubt about his
election in spite of the fact that the
democrats will undoubtedly again
center their entire strength on the head
of their county ticket with the hope of
again electing that one officer.

Talk about separating grade crossings
In Detroit!' Owosso cross walk builders
could perhaps give our Detroit friends
some valuable pointers on the business.
The cross walk on the south side of
Oliver street across Park street came
near being high enough for delivery
wagons to drive under instead of over
but it made an ideal place to dump
lot of the city's dollars in the shape of
two miniature gravel hills,

For congress the name of Hon. EN-
NETT L. Beach is again being mentioned
II Is believed that man of Mr.. Beach's
reputation and character would give
Congressman Fordney hard run, and
ia fact, might defeat Genial Joe, and an
effort is being made to bring Judge
Beach into the race. Mayor Baum and
Stanley Parkill of Owosso are almost
suggested for this honor. These three
names seem to be all now considered by
che democrats. Evening
News. 1t would seem as though the
News must know that Judge Beach
could not accept the nomination if he
would, and it is understood among his
friends in Saginaw that he wouldn't if
be could. Mr.. Parkill has gone to
Europe to remain until nearly election
time and gave his friends to understand
before leaving that he would not accept
(he nomination. Looks as though it
was up to Mayor Baum, and it is known
he does not wish to make the run. The
democrats of the district better accept
the advice of some Of the leading demo
erats in Saginaw and make no nomina-
tion. 1t is conceded on all sides that
there is no possible chance to defeat
Congressman Fordney. :,

The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1902-08-08

Attorney Fred H. Warren, of Detroit,
chairman of the democratic Wayne
county committee during the cam
paign of 1896, who made many speeches
for Bryan and free silver during
that memorable campaign, is far from
being optimistic regarding the success
of the democrats in the coming state
campaign. q while Gov. Bliss is
considered by some to have had rather
.coloress administration, still it has'been
free from scandal and believe he is just
about as good as any of the governors
that come and go. I look. for the cleo
ton of A. T. Bliss" said he, ''by a ma
jority of from 25, 900 and upwards.
The democrats are casting about for a
candidate for the; congressional race,
and the leaders admit they are up
against the hardest proposition they have
ever encountered in this district. Some
mention has been made of Stanley Park
i'll, of Shiawassee, those favoring him
being actuated with the idea that he
would, of course, be defeated but so
would any one else who could be named,
and two years hence it would leave the
way clear for the nomination of Sagi
nav man. 1t is known there are any
number of Saginaw men who would be
tickled to death with nomination if
they had the slightest ground for believ-
ing that an election would result. Then,
too, many Saginaw democrats do not
cotton to the nomination of Parkill
They want Saginaw candidate for the
assistance it will be to the county ticket.
They are going to make rifle for legis-
lative and county officers and need all
the assistance that can be secured But
they are up stump for candidate.
James Davitt would not take it under
any consideration. His practice is worth
several thousand dollars annually and
he says that he could not think of sacri
ficing his business for the honor of a
congressional nomination even If sure
an election would follow. The Even
ing News reyives the name of Judge E.
L. Beach, but it is certainly without
authority, because he stated to The
Courier Herald only short time ago
that he could not think of such thing.
He is no fools When he accepts nom
ination for congress he wants at least
one chance in ten of getting there.
Mayor Baum is also mentioned as q
possibility, but it is such barren one
that it is not worth moments consid-
Grafton. He is more likely to take re-
nomination for mayor, as he knows that
he could not spread over the eighth dis
trict to advantage. T. n. Eiler has
been spoken of by reason of his suavity
and hand shaking capacity but he
thinks the nomination for county clerk
more sure of results. He would not ac-
cept congressional nomination with
out the dough for greasing the wheels
of the band wagon is furnished and in
copious quantities The democrats are
mighty hard up for a candidate and it is
not unlikely they will be compelled to
fall back upon Farmer Youmans, of
Bridgeport in the end. Besides, it's no
sure thing that he couldn't poll a big
ger vote than any candidate the demo
cratic aggregation could muster in the
entire district Saginaw Courier-Her-
