ANNOUNCE MENT.
The Office of Judge of Probate Means
Much to the Public.

In presenting his name to the repub-
licans of the county for denomination
for the Office of Probate Judge, Mat
thew Bush points to his record in the
Office and his reputation as represen-
tative of the people in the adjustment
of matters coming before that court for
settlement.
1t is conceded that the Office of the
judge of probate differs materially from
most offices, in that it is desirable the
| occupant of the office should have a
comprehensive knowledge of the pro-
bate law, and be guided by desire to
help relieve in every possible way
those who appear in his court in the
transaction of the business peculiar to
it.
The vast majority of cases appearing
in the probate court follow the deep
bereavment in the family. when the
main stay, the one who has been looked
to for support and guidance, is taken
away. The widow and orphans usually
know little of the procedure required
in the settlement of estates, and to
know they have in the judge of probate
one in whom they can contide, and on
whose judgment they can depend, is a
source of great comfort.
In the performance Of his duties in
this Office Judge Bush has always con-
Quoted himself and the affairs of the
Office in a manner above reproach and
criticism. Ask anyone who has had
business in the Office, and the answer
will be the same: Judge Bush has
been sympathetic friend and q safe
counsellor"
He now submits his name for renomi-
nation. Approaching the consideration
shown him in the past, he assures his
friends that if he is again selected by
them to perform the duties of the Office
it will continue to receive his careful,
undivided attention.

Again Before the Public.

Two candidates will go before the
people Tuesday, Sept. 1st for nomina-
tion at the primaries, who have found
it unnecessary to make any campaign
for votes, further than that necessary
under The primary law to secure sign
ers to the petitions required for the
placing of their names on the ballot.
1t will be with feeling of pride that
the voters will cast their ballots for
John A. Watson for second term as
sheriff of the county, and for Gilbert J.
Cole for register of deeds.
Two years ago when seeking the
nomination these gentlemen pledged
their word to the people that they
would look carefully after the interests
of the county and people and perform
the duties of the offices they sought, in
the most satisfactory manner possible.
How we'll that pledge has been kept is
an open secret to every person in the
county. So we'll indeed that when they
seek denomination not vestige of op-
position appears against them-is not
dreamed of. This is a record of which
not only they may feel proud, but the
residents of their respective townships,
and the whole county as well. The
absence of opposition to their renomi-
nation is one of the greatest tributes to
their faithfulness and efficiency that
could be paid to county officer by a
we'll satisfied constituency.
No need to solicit votes for John A.
Watson or Gilbert J. Cole, their record
is the best solicitor they could have.
The people will be proud to cast an
other vote for them on Sept 1st.-Ban-
croft Commercial.
Add to the above the names of Byron
p. Hicks, cur present efficient prosecut-
ing attorney, and Charles W. Shipman,
who has done his every duty faithfully
as county treasurer. All that CONNER
cial says of Messrs Watson and Cole
applies equally to these gentlemen.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1908-08-21

the presidency will have little influence
hereabouts. He is now as strongly in
favor of the election of Mr.. Taft as any
man in the county and will do more for
him than any one in the district.
To make the matter short, the rank
and file will take care of J. w. Fordney
at the primary and in November send
him back to Washington with major
ity which will tell the world that we
believe in him. Respectfully,
H. PRESTON.

APPEALS TO FARMERS and VETERANS
To Endorse Cong. Fordney at the
Primary-Has Always Been
Faithful TO interests of
Constituents.

EDITOR TINES:
Please allow me few lines in your
paper and oblige. We hear in these
days Of politics some talk against our
friend, Hon.!J, w. Fordney, endeavor-
ing to influence the people that he has
no interest inssecuring pensions for the
old veterans, etc. His opponents be-
little themselves very much when they
endeavor to injure the reputation of Mr..
Fordney, man who has been in active
publicsservice for years and comm and
ed the full respect and confidence of
his constituents. It appears very fool
ish indeed to endeavor to substant late
such an idea, thinking sane people will
believe them. | have heard of Mr.,
Fordney over in Flint (where l resid ed
before coming to Vernon) we'll spok en-
of, being a man always ready to do all
in his power to assist the old Vets in
their pension matters and as a gene raj
thing he was very successful. He is a
power in Congress. Now his opponents
who favored Mr.. Fordney year ago
are desirous of turning him down simp-
ly on account Of his loyalty to friend.
Has not Mr.. Fordney constitution al
right to vote for friend if he desires2
| say as long as we have representa-
tive who is faithful to the interest of
the farmers, businessmen and veterans
alike, by all means retain him. Turn
out farmers and veterans. and show by
your votes that you appreciate Mr.
Fordney's ability and the interest he
has taken in your district. Don't swap
horses Ia the middle Of q stream, but
elect Mr. Fordney with full confidence
that you will receive justice from him
as your Representative. Return him to
Washington instead of man who has
no experience and influence such as
Congressman Fordney possesses.
Yours truly,
j. w. TAYLOR.

VIM. NJ. KILPATRICl
Dated this 18th Of July, 1908.

Mr.. Kilpatrick's services for two
terms in the state senate and as a
delegate in the last Michigan consti-
tutional convention eminently fits
him for the position of member Of the
state legislature. The Republican
electors of this county should readily
accept the services rendered, and
show their appreciation by attend
ing the primaries on the first day of
September, next, to make sure of his
selection on the legislative ticket.
His record is too recent not to be
known and appreciated by the cleo
tors of the county.

w. M. kilpatrick's Candidacy.

To the Republican Electors of Shia-
wassee County:
Should the new constitution form
ulated by the last Constitutional Con-
vention be adopted as now seems
probable, the next legislature will
have the most important work COM
ing before any legislature in this
state for the last fifty years, and the
legislation necessary to carry into
effect the many changes in our funda-
mental laws will be considerable and
important. The possibilities for
legislation of vast interests to the
people of the state under it's provis-
ions are unquestionably great. Much
will depend upon the makeup of the
next legislature, the members of
which are to be chosen this fall.
Believing that with my acquaint-
ance with the many changes in the
constitution, and the reasons for the
same, might be Of service to this
county, and the state, 1 hereby an
nounce my candidacy for Representa-
tive, and ask your consideration at
the county primaries on the first day
of September next.

Bozeman, Mont, June 10.-The
Democratic state convention opened
here today with every prospect of o

FOURTH CELEBRATION
AND CHERRY FAR
Board of Trade and Business NJ.
League Take Up Discussion Whas.'' sva
Both Events Should Be Held '''''sf

Last night at the meeting of ths
Business Mems league the people
who want a Fourth of July celebra-
tion above all things else had their
innings, and Il now looks as though
Salem would celebrate with a hur-
rah. There Is considerable feeling
about town, however, that the cele-
bration of the Fourth should be
waived this year in order to- make
grand success of the oregon Cher
ry fair, which will be held in our
city, July and 10. II is proposed
to extend this fair to the 18th and
make that date gala day to take the
place of the Fourth of July celebra-
tion. Those who favor this move
argue that three day event is bet
ter for our city from business
standpoint, as well as from every
other point of view.
The cherry fair, especially IL the
celebration day is added to II, will
bring more people to onr city, leave
more money here, and do more good
to the community as a whole than
the mere observance of the Fourth
of July. The one is a state event
which will bring people to our city
from all sections, while the other ~
purely local enterprise.

FURTHER PLANS FOR

II anything goes amiss in the
preparations for the celebration oi
Public School Day next Friday I,
will not be the fault Of the various
committees that are In charge OF the
work. The latest move OF the Board
of Trade was TO secure free street
car transportation for all the chill
dren of the primary grades, from the
schools TO Wilson Avenue, where
the parade will start. Manager
Page of the Portland Railway, Light
& Power company this morning
very kindly offered to furnish spe-
cial cars for the children free.
All the streets over which the pa
rade will pass will be thoroughly
sprlnkled, so that neither the march
ers nor the spectators will be both
cred by the dust.
Every pupil in the big para ie
will carry a bunch of flowers; those,
who for any reason. are not able to
obtain flowers for the occasion will
be furnished with them by the Wo.
mems club, under the direction OF
Mrs. p. II. Raymond.
The Woodburn band has also been
scared. This makes three bands
that will take part in the parade CT
