The West Michigan State Fair.

During the past four years the
West Michigan State Fair has given
an annual exhibition of agricultural
and industrial products which have
represented in adequate and most en-
tertaining fashion the resources of
West Michigan. Beginning on the
tenth of next month, the fifth annual
exhibition by this organization will, as
heretofore, be given in Grand Rapids.
These fairs are distinctively the re-
suit of genuine public spirit on the
part of a large number of prominent
business men in western Michigan
who have served and who continue to
serve without pay as president, vice
president, directors and superinten-
dents. No one of these gentlemen
has received any recompense beyond
the satisfaction that is theirs as they
see the splendid results of their eff
forts in carrying forward an exhibit
ton second to none, of like charac-
ter, in the entire country.
Just as Grand Rapids is the in
dustrial, commercial, financial and
educational center of Western Michi-
gan, so the West Michigan State Fair
is essentially the annual festival of
the people of West Michigan. Such an
enterprise in our own portion of the
state deserves and receives the loyal
support of the people of this particu-
lar section of West Michigan, so that
it is only necessary to remind them of
the dates (Sept. 10, II, II, 13 and 14)
and the Northumberland Rapids. Half
fare rates to Grand Rapids will be
granted during fair week on all Mich
igan railroads.

Eminently Qualified.
I'm the Bancroft Commercial.

From the Bancroft Commercial.
The Commercial wishes to give an
expression to its readers through the
county of few facts relative to our
cand idate for sheriff, John A. Watson.
His qualifications as an active, ener-
getic, thoroughly reliable, and honest
business man are well known to every
individual not only IN the Township of
Shiawassee, but to almost every promi-
nent business man in the villages and
cities of our county. He is we'll and
favorably known by large number of
prominent farmers and others in all Of
our voting precincts
Mr.. Watson was born in Livingston
Co., Mich. in 1868. He has been resi-
dent of Shiawassee township 30 years;
has been actively engaged in business
for about 20 years, having represent
ed the large wholesale house of Burn
ham, Stoepel d Co., of Detroit, in this
territory, ia years, the balance of the
time in the mercantile business in Ban
croft, at the present time being the
head of the firm of j. A. Watson d Co.,
our Oldest and most prominent business
house. We cannot boast nor elaborate
to thoroughly upon Mr. Watson's
honesty and integrity, his life among
and upright in every particular; social
ly Mr.. Watson, is a member of The
Knights Templar order, knights of
Pythias, and Maccabee, and in good
standing in all of these
He is serving his Bird term in our vii
lage council, discharging those duties
with perfect satisfaction to his constit
uents. In asking for the nomination
for sheriff Mr.. Watson is not seeking
an Office he is not competent and ably
qualified to fill in every respect. He is
wide awake, possesses tact and genious
so necessary in filing an office of so
great Importance
He has been life long, active re-
publican, always lending every assist
ance at his command for the republican
ticket. 1t is his first announcement for
Office. He has no political enemies,
nor old get even" grudges. Every
body has good word for John Watson.
He is one of the kind of men that we
need to fill our public Offices and we
feel certain that the republican voters
will make no mistake nor have any &C.
casion to regret casting their votes for
him on Sept. 4.
Mr.. Watson's petition has been sign
ed by nearly every republican voter in
Shiawassee township, which is evidence
Of his good standing at home, where he
is best known.
The Commercial and his friends
through out the county, earnestly ask
for his nomination, and urge it, feel
ing confident that the election of re-
publican, sheriff would be assured.

Charles w. Shipman, represented by
the above picture, is candidate for the
nomination for the Office of county
treasurer, believing that he has the
right to ask the same for many good
always has been and is firm believer
in the principles of the party. He has
ever been ready and willing to aid in
promulgating the views of the party as
represented by its declarations and
leaders. A man of good moral char
acter, clean habits, an efficient worker
in all tending to the betterment of his
community, man of strong conyic-
tions as to matters of right and wrong,
not afraid but willing to stand for that
which he believes to be right-and this
is the highest type of manhood-he
would certainly make an ideal candi-
date. Mr.. Shipman has lived in this
county nearly all his life, is farmer
and works his farm in the township of
Venice. The voters of his township
have repeatedly honored him with
township positions, he having served in
nearly all the offices, representing tn EN-
as supervisor for several years up to
1900. Nearly all the enrolled republi-
cans of Venice signed his nomination
paper and on September 4th will give
him large vote. For these and many
other reasons MIR. Shipman seeks the
support of the republicans for treasurer.
IfInominated and elected he will en-
deavor to give a square deal to all
without fear or favor. Keep his candi-
dacy in mind.

3. p. Hicks viii Not Let a Few
Dictate.

1t is certainly gratifying to friends
of B. p. Hicks here at home to know
that he is being received with much
encouragement by the Republican
voters throughout Shiawassee county.
Those who know Mr.. Hicks best have
no doubt as to his ability as a lawyer,
and know further that he will make
Shiawassee county one of the best
prosecuting attorneys she ever had.
Now that this fact is being realized
broadcast feeling of satisfaction ex-
lists.
Mr.. Hicks does not have to bother
about the matter of support at home.
1t is being pledged to him on all sides,
coming voluntary. If he does land the
nomination and election, and 1t is
hoped there will be no question about
it, it can be counted upon that we will
have a prosecuting attorney who is
not afraid of the cars" He will go
into Office to be the prosecutor, will
perform the duties as they should be-
and will not stand for any debating
as has been known to exist in the
past.-Durand Express.
