had an experience in Owosso, Saturday
evening, which they will not care to re-
peat. Enroute home from Alma, they
stopped at the Symes' tavern for supper
and in leaving appropriated some of the
napkin rings for souvenirs. Officer Pat.

boys at the junction and settled on the
payment of $5 and the return of the
rings. Better keep the team in Hills
dale until they learn better.

Lieutenant-Governor Kelly took the
place of ex-Congressman III. c. Smith,
and as usual highly pleased his hearers
with stories. facts and arguments. He
said that today all the leading nations
were dominated by the idea that the
people were able to govern themselves,
giving many striking illustrations, and
was glad that the plan of selecting
officials by popular vote was being
more generally adopted, even U. S.

he explained the subject most thorough

fullest extent of the law regulating

referring to the great advance Of the

and that every mans right to work

vance in the liberty of the people.
Toastmaster Townsend closed the
program by thanking the ladies' urging
every man to take as full part in gov
ernment as possible, protested against
the republican party's resting on it's
past accomplishments, urged every one
to cut out selfish desires and fight for
the general good of the nation.
Senators, the president and others be-
ing chosen in that way. There was
mere confidence that the average man
was capable of participating in govern
ment. The conflict of prayer meeting
and caucus on same night should be de-
cided in favor of the caucus. He
thought there never had been a better
time to become republican than now
and pointed to the fact that most young
men were casting their lot with that
party. He believed no seven names in
the the worlds history could be sug-
gested thai were greater than those of

publicans.

After recess of fifteen minutes the

mended that the temporary organiza-

pointed; that the congressional candi-
date hereafter name a man from each

The report was adopted. w. c. Brit

officers were sworn. 1t being the un-
derstanding in the district that the

The report of the committee on reso-

and signed by the four members, Odell

a strong argument against recommend

years of service in the national legisla
