Congressman William Alden Smith,
of Grand Rapids, who was in the city
Monday, said he was quite confident
that Roosevelt would carry the country
with ease. "The democrats always
elect their president along about this
time of the presidential year, you
know" he said, land their efforts have
a, bracing effect upon the republicans
that begins to make itself felt with
marked influnce when the fall campaign
gets fairly into its SWING. / predict
that by the opening of October the coun-
try will thoroughly realize that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is to succeed himself.
He is the most popular man with the
masses of the people, the people of small
means, the working people of the coun-
try, of any candidate who has run for
the presidency in years, and the solid
business and manufacturing interests
of the country have full confidence in
him The spectators and the men
who are more or less influenced by Wall
street finance and few of the large
trusts or combinations do not think he
is safe Therefore they are against
him. l am coming over to Saginaw

vention is held. l am delegate, and

strong and able man, whom we hope to

ton and made fight for our method of
bringing about that reform accept the
verdict in the best spirit possible. We

l think Fred M. Warmers letter to
the League of Republican clubs was
fine one, and shows the broad gagged
character of the man, He certainly is
extremely popular, clean, able and with
no tendency to extra expansion of head
piece. He will be governor of Michigan
from the firstday to the last of his term.
Under his pleasant exterior and mild
manner he has as much will power and
persistent determination as l ever saw
in any public man. All his career shows
that. No man can move him from his
course when he has
decided upon it, He will be elected by
a big majority, and it makes no differ
ence what the democrats do at their

An Unusually Good Opportunity

The republicans of this county, have
M unusually good opportunity this
fear. The list of possible candidates
for the various offices is large and the
list is made up of exceptionally good
men. Nevertheless there is an oppor-
tunity for the exercise of good judg-
ment on the part of the delegates to the
county convention which meets in Co.
runna next Tuesday. For instance
there are six candidates for county
offices-not counting coroner from this
city alon9. No one expects that all will
be nominated. No one could assert that
il would be good politics to nominate so
many men from one city. And yet the
Owosso list is made up of good men,
such as r. p. Bigelow for sheriff, r. N.
Parshall for the same Office, Fred Ed
wards for register of deeds, A. H.
Northway for treasurer, G. M. Hamper
for prosecuting attorney, Neil R. Walsh
for circuit court commissioner, and E.
r. Joslin for surveyor. A. H. North
way is sure to be renominated for treas
urer, has no opposition whatever. The
same istrue of Mr.. Joslin, county sur
yeyor. No opposition is conceivable
for circuit court commissioner Walsh.
With the others it will be different
With an Owosso candidate or candidates
for the offices of sheriff, register Of deeds,
and prosecuting attorney in addition to
the ones whose nominations are already
rs certainly made as can be, there can
not help being contests more or less
spirited. These will be the nominations
which will require good judgment on
the part of the delegates and good ma
tnre on the part of number of disap-
pointed candidates. There is no doubt
that some consideration is due other
parts of the county besides Owosso in
spite of the big republican vote polled
here. Just what consideration it will
seem best to give the geographical To-
cation Of the candidate, however, THE
TIMES would hesitate to say. The con-
sideration of the personal fitness or
sdaptability of the candidate should be
q more important consideration than
ahis however. The TIMES does hope
and has no reason to expect anything
Else than that spirit of fairness and
Willingness to look. the matter over care
fully will peryade the convention and

There Is no reason for allowing the
opposition to elect sheriff this fall-or

On Its Record.

The republican party has been in com.
plete control of the government for
eight years past, and it is on its record
that it goes to the people. 1t seeks the
suffrages of the electors not alone on
vague promises of what it may do, OF
with tears of contrition for its past, but
on record of what it has done, and
definite promises for the future. The
records of eight years of republican adj
ministration can be summed up as fol-
lows
Passed new tariff law.
Successfully conducted foreign war.
Extended the commerce of the
country.
Settled the money question by estab-
fishing the gold standard.
Passed laws opening the arid lands of
the country to settlement.

For Circuit Court Commissioners

The friends of Roy Derham, of this
city, will ask for the nomination of Row
Derham for the Office of one of the cir.
cult court commissioners at~the republi-
can convention next Tuesday. Mr..
Derham is the son of Charles Derham.
of this city, is a graduate of Corunna
High school and from the law DEPART
ment of the Michigan University. He
is an exceptionally fine young man and
would fill the Office in satisfactory
manner.-Corunna Journal.
Elmer S. Anterior has been promised
recognition by the majority of the dele
gates to the county convention, and
his prospects are fine. The sentiment
that it is time for change has grasped
firm hold. and Mr.. Anterior appears
to be the choice. Durand friends and
republicans will appreciate favors shown
her candidates. -Durand Express.
Charles w. Mimic for sheriff. Sounds
good Doesn't it? MIR. Mimic has the
qualifications, besides being a popular
gentleman. If allowed, to make the
race, there will be a republican sheriff

I'M the Mt. Clemens Monitor

From the Mt. Clemens Monitor.
One day just ten years ago young
man with good, honest face and
modest mien came into the Monitor
office. Sony name is Warner" said he
81 live at Pennington Oakland county
make cheese there-and l am think
ing of becoming candidate for the sem
ate in the Macomb- Oakland district. 1t
is democratic district, l know, but l
believe there is a fighting chance, and
am willing to take it, if the boys are
willing believe 1 can carry Oakland
county by three or four hundred, and
if we can hold 'em down in Macomb
county to two or three hundred, it is
possible for me to get in by hundred
or so. It's close nipping, but it is worth
trying for: sell a lot of cheese in the
two counties, and know a good many
men,"
The young mans candidacy grew
finely. The more people got to know
him, the better they liked him. He
was plain. unaffected citizen. with
friendly word for all men. When the
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1904-07-29

election came, instead of one or two
hundred majority, he had 2,100. He
entered the senate the youngest mem
Der and at once proved himself capable
and upright. He served four years,
being reelected by very large major
ity in 1885, Mr.. Warner stood stead
lastly for the people while in the senate.
He was heartily with Gov. Pingree in
his policy of reform, and he was not
for moment ''lined up with corporate
interests.
Mr.. Warner was candidate for Sec
rotary of state in 1898 and was defeated
by J. S. Stearns, whose Doodle was
more effective then than his procla-
nations for reform" have been since.
Mr.. Warner was nominated and elected
in 1902, in both cases running ahead of
the average vote of his associates on the
ticket. No better secretary Of state was
ever chosen by the people of the state.
He has now been nominated for COVER
nor in full and fair convention of the
republicans of the state, and practically
without opposition. He stands and
will be elected on his record as a man
and public official. When he is COVER
nor, as he will be by an overwhelming
majority, he will be the same genial
gentleman and straightforward citizen
that he is now. He feels that the Office
of governor will come to him as great
trust and a great responsibility. There
need be no fear that he will betray the
trust or prove unequal to the responsible
ity. He has large acquaintance with
state affairs, and no one will fool him
for minute. Neither for minute
will anybody be governor of Michigan
but himself. Fred Warner is distinctly
and conspicuously man of the people.
The people will elect him, and he will
serve them first, last, and all the time
with absolute fidelity.
The republican state convention nom
mated a fine ticket, declared for as, full
a measure of primary reform as any
republican state has, and adjourned
with everybody singing "Hallelujah."
The work of the convention could no.
have been better.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1904-07-29
Curtis out of Race.

John l.. Curtis will not come before
the republican county convention next
week as candidate for sheriff. After
making canvass of the county he de-
cided that while on every hand he met
with very friendly assurances Of regard,
the general impression was that the
nomination would in all probability be
denied him this year. Having made
up his mind that there was no use in
prolonging his candidacy in the face OF
certain defeat he very wisely and in an
entirely laudable manner withdrew SO
that, in his own words, "the matter OF
nominating sheriff may he less COM
pick, and in the interest of harmony"
This action on the part of Mr.. Curtis
can scarcely fail to make friends for him
should he at some future time again be-
come candidate for the Office. Per-
sonally, it would be hard to find many
republicans in the county who have not
already very friendly feeling for Mr.,
Curtis. 1t is undeniable, however, that
the fact that for some three years he
was deputy and turnkey under a dem
ocratic sheriff, only resigning late this
spring, had much to do with the feeling
on the part of some republicans that he
should wait.
THE TIMES predicts that he will not
be loser by his frank course or the
good spirit and promptness with which
he bows to what he decided was the
wish of the republicans of the county.
