The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1904-05-20

Last week THE TIMES called the at
tention of the republicans of the county
to the advantages of holding the county
nominating convention early. AT the
meeting of the republican state commit
tee in Grand Rapids this week the date
of the state convention was made the
30th Of June. The fact that this con-
vention will be held as early as this
gives additional weight to the reasons
already given for holding the county
nominating convention early. Again,
since the last issue of this paper it is
reported that two or three additional
candidates for some of the more i'm
portant county offices have gotten into
the race If the date of the nominating
convention is quickly decided upon the
remaining aspirants for county offices
will then announce themselves at once,
if there should be any others who
have not yet made their position clear,
and all can then tell at once what they
have to contend against. AS said be-
fore, so far as The TIMES can discover,
this will not work to the disadvantage
of any individual candidate and will
give all the advantage of having the
matter decided and off their minds at an
early date. To repeat then, it should
be remembered that no one is shut out
by this plan, no advantage is given to
any candidate, or set of candidates, but
that time and labor and worry are saved
for all. and the inevitable disappoint-
ment will have just so much more time
10 wear away before the real work of
the campaign begins. THE TINES be-
lieyes it will be much better for both
candidates and the party at large to
have the county nominating convention
held not later than some time the last
Of next month.

national committee and his consequent
retirement from the cabinet during the
campaign. The selection appears to be
one of the best which could possibly be
made. Mr.. Cortelyou's rise has been
rapid but not faster than his very re-
markable ability deserved. Appointed
to minor clerkship under the last
Cleveland administration through the
medium of civil service examination
he was during the Mckinley admins
tration advanced to the position of pri
vate secretary to President Mckinley
Here he gained and held the greatest
trust of all both as to his ability and his
integrity. Retained in the same respon-
sible and arduous position by President
Roosevelt until the creation of the de-
partment of commerce and labor, he
was then placed in charge of the new
department, thus becoming a cabinet
member and being entrusted with the
task of organizing the department. He
is man credited with ability to per-
form an immense amount of work with
out firing. All of these considerations
tend to make his selection for the inn
portant position fhead of the national
committee during the campaign most
desirable one. His clean-cut record for
decent politics and the Presidents we'll
known position on the same subject
makes his selection all the more crafty
ing as it is one more assurance that the
campaign on the part of the republicans
will be of the most thoroughly clean,
dignified, but vigorous type. Already
such men as Ex-Governor w. Murray
Crane, of Massachusetts, and Mr.. James
r. Garfield, at present head of the bu-
reau of corporations and Secretary Cor
telyou's right hand man in his depart
ment, are being considered for the cabi-
net as soon as Mr.. Cortelyou's resigna-
ton is given.
