lection suitable to the spirit Of the

Honors Cong. Fordney for the Enc

Former County Treasurer Richard
F. Kay voices the sentiment of Re-
| publcans in all parts of the county and
district in the following letter:
Morrice, July %, 1908.
Editor Owosso Times:
| am sorry to see an effort is being
made to supplant our congressman,
Joseph w. Fordney. A few of our pa
pers have evidently sold their columns
to the opposition, but the people I'M
derstand and wonder how an Owosso
paper can work against Fordney when
they owe him a debt of gratitude for
all he has done for Owosso and vicin-
ity and the county Fat large in the
fight he put up in congress for the
beet sugar industry in which the pros
perity of Owosso is largely concerned.
Also your news pcstoffice building
which you would not nave had but for
Fordney's indomnitable will and per-
severance in achieving what he had
promised the citizens of Owosso.
Fordney is no ordinary man; he ac-
complishes, he brings about results;
his executive ability and everlasting
vigilance has given him a power in
congress nc other Representative from
this district has ever welded.
Sum up all that his enemies can
and have said against him and when
fully digested is: He was true to his
friend. Speaker Canaan, for the pres
idential nomination Is it sin being
true to a friend? Fordney knew Sec
rotary Taft would be nominated, but
how could he compliment the Speak.

We are proud of the |

Free trade with these islands might be

watchfulness and tactful fights, and
free trade with these islands would be
a most serious blow to the high class
labor of America. 1t would cripple or
kill the American Beet and Cane Su-
gar industries and would eventually
prove disastrous to the entire farm
ing community by the introduction of
other competing products. Mr.. Ford
ney fought the free trade bills and
won each time by forcing favorable
compromises. He succeeded in having
the last Philippine bill hung up in the
Senate where it will probably die q
natural death. This sugar fight is his
mighty achievement and too much
credit cannot be extended to Mr.. Ford
ney. He realized the great importance
Of the beet sugar industry both to la

A large part Of the responsibility for
attractiveness lies with the individual.

instead of six as at first proposed,

The two committees will now act as

propositions from anyone who is in
position to furnish water, and in short
to devise ways and means for the or

Several more speeches were made

necessity of having it here if the lands
in Rogue River Valley were to be-
made to yield the returns which they
should considering their fertility and
the wonderful climate with which

The chairman said that the irriga-
tion committees should arrange to
have meeting Immediately after ad-
joUrnment of the convention. Several
matters pertinent to the situat on
were taken up and thoroughly dis
cussed when the convention adjourned
to reconvene at a time when the
committees have report to make.
Following the adjournment the two
committees Assem- bled and decided to
hold their first meeting on Wednesday
afternoon at O'Clock when they will
organize for prompt action along the
lines of irrigation.
