The Friend takes exceptions to some
Of the Stars remarks regarding the
abolition Of the liquor feature Of the
army canteen. Cant" is what the
Friend calls it, and it quotes General
Miles a Prohibitionist in support of the
new abolition. Miles must certainly
be regarded as an authority worth some
attention, but cant is far from the
proper word to use in describing the
views Of such men as Major General
Chatfee, of the General Staff, Major
General James f. Wade, who has been
doing some very practical investigating
in the Philippines, Major Gen raj Henry
c. Corbin, and number of other prac-
teal army men who think it was a
grevious error to prohibit the use of
mild liquors under proper clrcum-
stances in the canteens, The argument
that is used by all of them, that the
men who are deprived of liquor in car
Teens will get poorer liquor at a costlier
rate and under less respectable condi-
tons elsewhere, is unanswerable as
long as a majority Of the enlisted men
are users of liquor, as nearly all are.
Even Miles vents young men who
have not formed the habit of using
Liquor" The figures which the Friend
quotes are meaningless because they
do not cover specific periods and do not
show anything but bald assertions of
results Figures so used very often
lie.

For the benefit of aspiring jurymen
who are a little mixed as to the diff
ference between an Impression" and an
"opinion" it may be stated that a STAN
dard dictionary defines an impression
thus: "An effect produced on the
senses, the mind, the feelings or the
conscience; a slight or indistinct re-
membrance, a notion or belief held by
the mind without adequate grounds"
An opinion is described as "A conclu-
sion or judgment held with confidence
but falling short of positive knowledge;
ranging from mere conjecture up to
strong probability. also be ief in general
based on such conclusion especially a
conclusion or view resting on made
quate reasons or on sentiment rather
than on reason"

THE WARM WEATHER TONIC
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1904-10-21
For Sheriff.

From the Durand Express.
AS the day of election is drawing
near, and the voters of Shiawassee coun-
ty become better acquainted with
Charles w. Minto, the republican candi-
date for the Office o, sheriff they learn
to appreciate his sterling qualities, bust
ness qualifications, and even tempera-
ment which trend to peculiarly fit him
to fill any Office Of trust that may be be-
slowed upon him.
Early in the campaign, Mr.. Mimic an
nounced himself as candidate for the
Office of sheriff. He entered the race
for the nomination unsophisticated in
politics. and, Notwithstanding the fact
that he was pitted against seven strong
political war horses of this county, the
manly methods he adopted, never speak
ing a disparaging word of any candi-
date, taken together with his strong
personality won for him the enomination
in one of the hottest, though friendly,
contests ever participated in in Shia-
wassee county, and won for him the ad-
miration of every person who attended
that convention.
After receiving the nomination, Mr..
Minto began his canvass for the elec-
tion and, unconscious of the snares,
stumbling blocks and pitfalls that be-
strew the pathway of those who seek
Office, and regardless of the jeers and
slurs that have been hurled against him
by his opponents, has pursued straight
forward, manly, honorable course
which is winning him friends every day
and assurances of success.
Mr.. Mimic has conducted his canvass
without the promise of an appointment
and the only promise he has made is
that if he is elected to the office of
sheriff he will conduct the duties of that
Office in thorough, capable, economi-
cal and business like manner, such as
will be an honor to himself and cred
it to his supporters.
That Mr.. Mimic is popular in his home
town is evidenced by the fact that he is
an ex-president of the Business Mems
Association and also holds an honorable
Office in nearly all of the orders Of which
he is a member.

Woman's Club Reception.

The Woman's Club entertained the
Current Topic Club Wednesday after
noon in honor of Mrs Josephine M.
Gould, of this city, retiring president of
the State Federation of Woman's Clubs.
The reception, which was attended by
about 75 ladies, and which proved sue
cessful in every way, was given at the
home of Mrs. j. j. Davis.
The house was very tastily decorated
with autumn leaves and flowers The
door was opened by Miss Marian Davis
to the guests, who were escorted to the
receiving line by Mrs. Winona Wat
tiers. In the receiving line were Mrs.
w. M. Fitzpatrick, Mrs. Ida Languer
wisch, Mrs. f. L. Devereaux and Mrs.
j. j. Davis, officers of the Woman's
Club, and Mrs. James N. Mcbride,
president of the Current Topic Club.
Mrs. Gould read the paper which she
presented at the State Federation, and
it was very flatteringly received. A
vocal solo was given by Miss Lyon, and
Miss Lena Gregory contributed piano
solo. Light refreshments were served by
the young ladies of the club-,Misses Pau
line Crum, Nellie Carpenter Alice Nc
Hardy, Helen Densmore and Clara Witt.

woman's Club.

The meeting of the Woman's Club
was held Saturday at the home of Mrs.
John Roos, East Main street. Three
interesting papers were read on the
Japanese empire. The first by Mrs.
Roos was on ''The Making of New ia
pan, " which is due to two great infu-
ences, namely, the great desire of Jap
an for knowledge and the incoming of
foreign people. Germany aided Japan
to build great harbors. France helped
to build an army and navy, England
helped on a constitution and the u. s..
furnished school system.
In July, 1858, four ships under COM
mand of Commodore Perry sailed into
the bay of Yeddo and opened the door
of the orient to western civilization.
The marvellous development of the
Japanese government is due to the re-
ceptive and initiative character of its
people. No other nation but an Anglo
Saxon nation could have found the
open door to the empire of Japan.
The japanese believe that civilization
represented by the pen is mightier than
civilization represented by the sword.
The second paper by Mrs. Reynolds
was about the Emperor Mutsuhito and
the Imperial Government.
Mrs. j. B. Parker gave talk on
"Court Life and Society,"" The i'm
perial court has lost much of it's digni-
ty by abandoning the artistic dress of
old Japan for the hideous habiliments
of western fashions, and Japanese wo-
men have yet to receive the recogni-
tion of equality accorded to the fair
sex of other countries.
The club will hold its next meeting
with Mrs. Fitzpatrick. 1t will be a
special afternoon and reports from the
State Federation will be made.

c. w. Mimic For Sheriff.

From The Corunna Journal.
The contest for the office of sheriff is
decidedly warm and is growing hotter
every day. The Office for the past four
years has been in the hands of the
democracy and it will not release con-
troll without hard struggle. They are
putting their entire strength on this
Office and that strength is not to be
made light of.
1t is different than any other Office in
the county for it not only makes place
for the sheriff but also the appointment
of under sheriff and number of depu-
ties goes to the winner. For this reason
it is made the personal matter by sew
eral individuals. Then it is conceded
to be the best Office in the county which
adds more interest to the campaign. y
The republicans after warm contest
selected Charles w. Minto, of Durand,
as its candidate and all believe he was
the strongest man. He was assured by
the other candidates and their friends
that they would stand Loyalty by the
nominee and we have faith to believe
that they will do it. Mr. Mimic was
born on farm, and in fact runs farm
at the present time and also has been
engaged in the mercantile business.
His avocations have given him the rug
ged honesty of the farmer and the
acumen of a business man, both qualities
would serve him well as sheriff
Mr.. Charles w. Mimic has always
been republican and is the nominee
of that party and deserves their votes,
and we believe he will get them. He is
making vigorous and creditable cam
paign and is fighting strong and
thoroughly organized opposition, by
which he is winning many democrats
to his support.
Republicans remember and do your
duty at the polls.

Dear Sir: The way to reckon the
cost of paint is to put both costs to-
gether, the cost of the paint and the cost
of putting it on.
It would save this country hundreds
of millions of dollars year; it would
save you alone Gf you happen to be a
victim) several dollars day.
See how it works. 1t costs as much
to put-on one paint as another, don't it9
Yes, if you use the same number of
gallons.
Well, don't II
No, you'll use twice as many gallons
of adulterated paint as of Devoe; and
you've got to pay twice as much for

Wants the Sheriff To File His Bills.

The expose of the enormous expenses
of the Office of sheriff as given by The
TIMES and Argus last week has opened
the eyes of the tax payers of this county
and is causing considerable curiosity as
to what the expenses of this Office will
be for the year ending Dec,- 31st, 1904.
If the past continuous increase in the ex-
penses during the last three years is
any criterion for this year the sum can
hardly fall short of the enormous sum
of $4,000, or, more than the total ex-
penses of any preceding sheriff of the
county for an entire term of four years.
1t is being currently reported that Mr..
Gerow is withholding the larger amount
of his bill at the present session of the
board of supervisors which he lis ap-
parently afraid to present to the board
until after election. From our super
visor / learn that to date bills have
been presented only to June. Why is
this? 1t has been customary to have
the bills of this Office presented up to
! Oct. 1st. Now as the people have a
right to, know how the affairs of the
county stand and the money belonging
to them has been and is being expended,
/ think it would be well for the board
to make a demand on Mr.. Gerow to
present all his bills up to the present
time. Let's have the bills SO that the
people can know all there is to this
matter. I learn that the board cannot
finish its work this week and will have
to hold an adjourned meeting next
week; the bills can be presented then if
Mr.. Gerow cannot spare time from his
efforts to elect Mr.. Jarrad to get them
ready this week. It's up to Mr.. Gerow

Cut Out Some Red Tape.

A lot of the rate tape in the granting
of deer hunters licenses has been cut
out this year. Heretofore it was neces-
sary for the would-be deerslayers to ap-
pear in person before the county clerk
and make affidavit necessary to get a
license. Now the procedure has been
changed so that the affidavit may be
made before any notary public and for
warded to the county clerk by mail,
