The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1906-09-07

The Caro- Advertiser complains be-
cause the people of that county had to
go to the expense of holding a primary
election to assist in renominating our
popular congressman and we are more
than half inclined to think that the Ad-
vertiser is right in its complaint as
other nominations in that county and
Saginaw are made under the old
method The expense is certainly a
heavy one with the conditions as they
are at present. However, the Advertis-
or is considerably off in it's statement
that Saginaw did not want the law.
Something over three thousand republi-
cans asked to have the question sub
mitted in that county and at the cleo
ton $50 of them voted for the law and
1854 against True, Tuscola did not
want it but the majority was very
small, 495 against adoption and 473 for.
In other words 1112 of the republicans
of Saginaw and Tuscola voted for the
adoption of the law while 759 were
against it, In Clinton and Shiawassee
the vote was 1891 for and PAT against.
With those figures it is hard to see
what ground the Advertiser has for its
statement that Clinton and Shiawas-
see counties soak Tuscola and Saginaw
to the queens taste" Again, letter
from the Office of the secretary of state
shows that nearly 800 republicans of
Tuscola asked to have the privilege of
voting on the question of direct nomi
nation of congressman.

Some of the "Jarred republicans"
who voted on Monday to nominate Mr..
Watson for sheriff on the ground that
he would be ''the easiest man to defeat
are going to be most beautifully left.
They will realize after the votes are
counted that this is a republican year
so far as the office of sheriff is concern

Tuesdays primary election should be
= lesson to the republicans of Owosso
city. Every candidate in the field from
the city was handicapped from the
start by the fact that there was candi-
date for each place on the ticket save
sheriff and up to the day of filing petit
tions it was understood there would be
IN Owosso candidate for that position.
The thing for Owosso republican candi-
dates to do in the future is to submit
ahe question of their candidacy to the
republicans of the city and have two
or possibly three candidates selected
better the smaller number-and then
make united effort to secure the nomi-
nation Of the candidates In this way
Owosso city would always be given one
or moro of the better offices on the
iieket. Tne republicans of the several
townships recognize the fact that Owosso
city always rolls up large majority for
the ticket and is entitled to recognition.
This would be given if the township
voters knew that but limited number
Of the nominations would go to Owosso.
When there are nine Owosso candidates
for eight Offices as there were this year
the city is lucky to secure even the
coroners II is to be hoped that two
years hence Owosso republicans will
remember Tuesdays lesson
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1906-09-07

Burns township like Owosso had too
many candidates and for the first time
in years is left off the ticket save for
the fact that Surveyor Joslin was origi-
nally nominated from that township
and if the old convention system had
been held this year N. X. Potter would
have nominated MIR Joslin as one of
the favorite sons of Burns. Possibly if
Burns republicans could have been
satisfied with one candidate for a
prominent place on the ticket they
might have secured the nomination.

The state tax rate for the present
year will be 81. % on each 81, 900 valua-
ton as compared with $245 on the
same valuation. last year The state
TAX is lower in total amount this year
BY almost half million dollars than it
gas last year. With Michigan's rapid
growth in all directions and the conse-
quent increased demands upon all of
the many state institutions and the
different lines of state service it re-
quires degree of care and economy
worthy of sincere commentator to
keep the total requirements for state
purposes within the figures given for
the coming year.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1906-09-07

The recent work of the state board of
equalization in determining taxable
valuation of the several counties of the
state for the period of five years, seems
TO have created less criticism and to
have been received with more com,
Mendstion than the work of any SINH
lar board for many years. Wayne
county was at first disposed to find
fault with the valuation given Detroit
and that county, but later learned that
the state board could not do less than
accept the valuation reported to it by
she Wayne county supervisors, and it
added less than million more. Con-
sidering the many points of view the
state board of equalization had to in
clude aud the character of its work as
selated TO all the different sections of
bhs state it is noteworthy that its official
conclusions should have 80 nearly
proven satisfactory to all.

GENERAL PALMA'S LIFE
 A ROMANTIC STORY
Biographical Sketch of President Of
 Cuban Republic.

Thomas Estrada Palma did not con- sider it extraordinary that he. a coun- try schoolmaster of New York state should be transformed suddenly into president if the republic of Cuba In his own mind, he has been The legal possessor of the high title neary 90 years before he was installed on May 20. 1902. Had not the revolutionists formally elected him their leader be- tween skirmishes with the Spanish tyrants in the Ten Years war; To his peaceful neighbors at Central val ley, where he conducted his school for Is years of the waiting period. he said little, but the few who knew his his tory had heard how he persisted in claiming the office even in the midst of his captivity in a Spanish fortress.
 '.I am president of the Cuban repub- lie" he had said to his guards when they demanded his "occupation" in the course of a census at the battlemented prison among the Pyrenees in 1878.
 His election, therefore. after the Spanish-American war he looked upon merely as a restoration of his rights With no special elation. though with che modesty that has always charac-
