First Annual Ball.

The Owosso City Letter Carriers
Branch 1877 National Association Let
ter Carriers, will give benefit ball al
Owosso Light Infantry armory Tues
day evening, Nov.10, 1903. Invitations
for same will be out in few days.
The money thus raised will defray
expenses Of the state convention OF the
Michigan State Association letter
Carriers which will be held In this
city February %, 1904 This conven
tion calls together IS or 100 officers
delegates and members of the State
Association from all parts OF the state
and as the expense Of entertaining this
body Of men falls upon Owosso Branch

they are obliged to call upon their
patrons and friends to assist in meet
ing this demand.
This is the first time since the esta b.
fishing OF free delivery In the city Of
Owosso, that the carriers have asked
for assistance In any of their under.
takings and they have takenithis way
Of giving you q chance to show that
you appreciate their long years OF good
conscientious service, and too that
they may give you return for the as
sistance you render them.

Local Public Buildings.

| Uncle Sam is now doing rushing
business as builder. He has fifty
structures, mostly post-offices, under
contract, and nearly three times al
many more under authorization. Such
is the volume of this work that congress
is unlikely to pass any new public build
ing bill at the coming session The cost
of the buildings still uncompleted will
be almost as much as the total annual
expenditure of the government half.
century ago when the supervising archi-
tect's Office was established.
The construction of public buildings
is one of Uncle Sans methods of 'lay-
ing up money" He cannot put it out
at interest in the savings banks like an
ordinary individual, but he can cut off
rents by owning his own business
house. Yet he builds so much more
substantially and therefore more expen-
sively than private concerns that the
rents saved ordinarily amount to very
low rate of interest ON their cost, often
less than the rate on government bonds.
But this is not wholly a dollar-and-
cent matter. The dignity of the federal
government, as well as the convenience
of its officers, is involving in having
suitable quarters for the transaction of
public business. The present supervis-
ing architect is now employing the
style of architecture seen in the great
Washington buildings, notably the
capitol, the treasury and the White
House. This will carry government
look to the national edifices in all parts
OF the country, so that they may be dis
tinguished at glance from mercantile
offices and collegiate institutions
1t is desirable that some definite and
reasonable rule should be observed in
the selection of places where public
buildings are to be erected. Some towns
of four thousand inhabitants have a
government building; others of forty
thousand have none. The result comes
from congressional log-rolling. This
evil-like the spoils system-will even
tually disappear. Youths Com

Political Pointers.

Secretary of State Fred Warner is re
ceiving many favorable notices in con
nection with his probable candidacy fol
Governor next year. Mr.. Warner il
well known in Clinton county, and has
many friends here. One of the super
visors said Saturday, II would like tc
support Warner for Governor" There
are others. He. is capable, dignifed,
thoroughly familiar with the affairs OF
state, and would certainly make most
excellent governor.-St johns Republi.
can. t5SS
There is no longer any question that
Justus s. Stearns intends to get into the
race for governor. He was in Grand
Rapids the other day and this is what
he said: Il have nothing to say relative
to state politics and shall probably not
have anything to give out for several
months yet. I expect to be a candidate
for governor, and have done practically
nothing as yet and do not expect to for
several months. l am not mixing in
the candidacy of any other man. When
the time comes, if am still in the race
l shall make formal announcement of
my candidacy, but it is altogether too
early vet. !"

Common Council.

At the meeting of the common coun-
Gil on Monday evening, firm of Boston
lawyers who represent Warren Proc
ter's Company served noticethat suit
would be begun, if settlement is not
made, against the city for infringement
of paving patents. This firm served
notice on the city before the bituminous
macadam was laid by the Barber Com
pany that the latter firm had no right to
use the formula. The communication
was referred to the city attorney.
Several bills were received from the
board of public works, but with the ex-
ception of the labor bills returned to the
board to be audited. They had been
examined only by one committee of the
board. Andrew Geek was allowed
5000 on account for the graveling of
West King and Oliver streets. ~
The council voted to replevin the city
fire engine, which is at j. H. Brandel's
shop. Mr.. BRANDED had refused to give
it up until his bill of $47.45 for repairs
and storage is paid. a..
The resolution to pave from Mason to
Goodhue street on Washington was re-
considered, as if the last block to Good
hue street were paved, it would cost the
city 5000 in taxes,-Fayette Squares
apportionment of the cost.
Alderman Washburn, chairman of
the committee on sidewalks, was releas-
ed from the resolution which ordered
him to buy cement only of Brooks &
Sen at $3.50 per barrel. He may now
buy cement for walks of any dealer, at
arprice not to exceed s. 40.
