WARNER AND KELLEY.
To Invade Shiawassee County and
Discuss State Issues on
Tuesday Next.

Gov. Warner and Lieut.. Gov.
Kelley are to make an automobile
speech making a tour of Shiawassee
county on Tuesday next, beginning
at Byron with a meeting at 8 a. m.
From there they will go to Vernon
for a meeting at 1915, Bennington
at 1880 a. M, and Henderson at 2
p. m, then into Saginaw county
speaking at Oakley at 3:15, Chesan-
ing at $50 and st. Charles at 500.
Everyone is invited and urged to
hear these men present their views
on state issues and measures in which
all are interested. The meetings will
necessarily be brief and not much
time will be lost from the work of
the day Later on Gov. Warner and
Lieut.. Gov. Kelley expect to visit
several other points in the county
and it is their hope that a goodly
number of people can be present at
all the meetings.

Multiplicity of Candidates will not
Confuse the Main Issue.

Detroit, Mich, June 23.-'I an
very sure that the Atwood-Hill box
er combination will leave no means
exhausted in their endeavor to get
more candidates in the field" said
Governor Warner. Il know they
have been and are now as busy as
bees trying to get some one in from
one from the upper peninsula and
other parts of the state. Their idea
is not that they expect they will win
with any of them in the primaries
but their hope is that the nomina-
tion will be taken from the people at
the September. primary and be
thrown into convention where
they hope they can control.
This would, of course, defeat the
peoples desires. The people have in
no uncertain terms declared for the
nomination Of governor and lieuten-
ant governor by a primary election,
and personally, / do not believe the
people of this state are in any mood
to tolerate anything less than that.
Thus far the old machines overtures
have repeatedly been turned down by
the prominent Republicans they have
approached.
81 believe the people Of this state
are too wise to be fooled by this
multiplicity of candidates scheme in
order to defeat the primary cause.
1t can only be taken as an acknow-
Judgement of the weakness of their
cause, when they are not willing to
allow the people to make the deci-
sion. My candidacy is in the hands
of the people and / believe they can
always be trusted to do the right
thing, and l am perfectly willing to
abide by that decision"

The present prospects are that
the government post office building
will not be fire-proof after all. When
bids were originally received the
contractors wanted $4S,500 for
fire-proof building and $46,950 if
not built fire-proff, a difference of
$3.50. 1t was thought by Superin-
tendent of Construction McGinty
that an additional appropriation of
$4,000 or $4,000 would provide for
fire-proofing in accordance with the
original plans, the contractors being
entitled to some extra compensation
to make good loses on some material
which they had purchased and would
not use. The bid for the work how
ever, is $3.50, which is in excess of
the appropriation and it is not known
as yet what will be done concerning
the matter. One thing is certain,
Owosso citizens will not be satisfied
to have the work completed under
the present plans.

, Francis George Morrice.

The death of Francis George Nor
rice occurred last Friday morning at
: his home in Bennington township,
after an illness of two months follow
ing a stroke of paralysis from the
effect of which he rallied but slightly
although his mind was clear practi-
cally all the time. He gradually
grew weaker and his death was not
unlocked for for several days preced-
ing last Friday. The funeral was held
Sunday afternoon at the home at
2 o'clock, Rev. G. H. Hanks of the
Congregational church of this city
officiating, the service being exceed
ingly simple. People from all over
the county attended, many driving
from distant points to pay last
tribute to the deceased.
Mr.. Morrice was born in Perry
township, Shiawassee county, in
1914 and spent his entire life in the
county His parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
William Morrice were among the first
settlers in this part of the state, Mr..
Morrice coming to America from
Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and locating
in the wilds of Michigan in 1887.
The village of Morrice was named
in honor of the family.
Beginning early in life, Mr.. Nor
rice worked faithfully, expended his
earnings carefully and in early man
hood became possessed of a fine farm
in Bennington township and by eX-
cellent management had made it
one of the finest farms and has one
of the best country homes in Eastern
Michigan. He took an active inter
est in public and social affairs and
was called upon by his township to
fill almost every responsible position
in the township repeatedly, and was
finally chosen by the Republicans as
their candidate for sheriff in 1888,
again in 1890, being elected both
times by large majorities and proving
himself one of the most capable,
honest and popular county officials
of the many who have served. After
his return to Bennington his advice
and good judgment were again
needed in township and county af-
fairs and he was selected to repre-
sent the township on the board of
supervisors, being a member of the
Z building committee that built the
magnificent court house at Corun-
ma.
Mr.. Morrice's strong personality,
ever genial disposition, his love for
home-life and his natural social
tendency made him a popular host
and the home was gathering place
of neighbors, young and old, at all
times. His companionability made
him an honored and ever welcome
member of Perry Masonic lodge, the
Owosso Chapter r. A. NJ, ,Corunna
CommandeBy Knights Templar and
Owosso Lodge Of Elks. Members of
all these organizations attended the
funeral Sunday and beautiful floral
tributes testified to the esteem of the
lodges and societies.
Mr.. Morrice was married August
IL, 1869 to Miss Irene Waters, four
children being born to them. Mrs
Morrice and three of the children,
Mrs. s. G.. Field, of Detroit, Miss
Maude and Ward Morrice survive.
The latter two resided at home. Miss
Mabel Morrice died in January, 1891.
