First Snow Storm.

Shiawassee county had its first snow
storm of the season at an early hour
Tuesday morning, continuing at inter
walls for two days, but melting almost
as fast as it fell. The storm was ac-
companied by high wind making it
seeming like real touch of winter. 1t
has continued cold since and consider
able damage has been done throughout
the state to fruit which was left on the
trees

START NEXT WEEK
New Haven Goal Co. Ready to Begin
Active Operations. Has Prom
ising Outlook.

The New Haven Coal COMPANY,
whose mines are located north and east
of Owosso, will begin shipping coal the
first of next week. This marks the
successful entrance of the company in
to local and outside fields. It's policy
is to soil direct from the mines to the
consumer.
With the opening of shipping opera
tions, force of 300 miners will be
started working the mine, and more
men will be added as the mine develops.
The employment of this number of men
is bound to result in great good to
Owosso, as this city will be their
natural trading center.
Besides facing so promising an open
ing, the future holds much for the
company. 1t has secured several thou
sand acres Unavailable coal deposits in
New Haven and other townships and
will sink other shafts within the COM
ing year. When each shaft is opened
into mine, force of at least one hun
dred fifty men will be needed to operate
it.
In uncovering these coal deposits a
clay shale has been encountered that
will make excellent brick and tile.
This also promises to furnish profitable
industry if developed
The company will not only sell its
coal locally, but is planning to enter
state and foreign territory. The coal is
of good grade of bituminous or soft
coal and suited for all purposes.

Big Apple Crop This Year.

The apple crop in Shiawassee county
from present indications will not only
equal but exceed the big apple crop of
two years ago. The apples as rule
are in very good condition. Good hand
picked apples are bringing as high as
seventy-five cents bushel. Cider
apples are worth about half of that
amount, There are several apple buy
ers present in Owosso now. Most of
the fruit is shipped to eastern markets.

Harvey Osborn Injured.

Mention was made last week of the
serious injury of Mrs. Harvey Osborn
in an automobile accident near Middle

Mr.. Osborn had one hip crushed and
sustained other injuries. His brother,

owosso Business College Prospering

OWoS8o BUSINESS SoUoSo Fro8pering.
Ten new students have entered the
Owosso Business College this month.
This item serves to call attention to an
institution that is rejecting great credit
to Owosso. This is Principal J. e.
Aitken's third year in Owosso and
if we may judge at all from present
evidence, it is going to be his best one.
Mr.. Aitken is confident that it will,
and he has every reason to think So.
Last year something better than forty
graduated from his school, and he has
placed every one of them in responsible
commercial positions. This fact speaks
volums for the efficiency of his school
which is recognized as one of the best
in Michigan.

We may be permitted to express
the hope that the athlete of the future
will not try to obtain stamina from a
gasbag. Already far too many people
waste time striving against natural
inaptitude for various pastimes. The

stimulants as does the national taste
for athletics.

REPUBLICAN OPPORTUNITY

The door of opportunity stands
wide to Minnesota Republican
ism. And there is dire need for
some one to enter and put things
to rights. For the past five
years the domestic policy of the
party has been going from bad
to worse and if something is not
soon done the party might as
well shut up it's dwelling and
become nothing more than a
memory. The cause of this con-
dition of affairs is so we'll known
that he who runs may read.
Yet the discredited bosses still
insist in trying to dictate to the
people how they should vote.
But the ''plain people," long
ago grown weary, have decided
to do as they please. At last
the ultra partisan press is sitting
up and taking notice, recent
events making it impossible for
them longer to ignore existing
conditions. Three Minnesota
newspapers, all of which are
well known and whose straight
Republicanism" has never been
questioned, last week gave voice
to vigorous protests. The St.
Cloud Journal Press, in leng-
thy editorial, referring to Presi-
dent Taft's Winona plea for
party solidarity" and thence
switching to state politics, says,
among other things:
'The party is drifting along
very much like a wind directed
balloon. With a few official
Jobs in sight, the twin city poll
ticians are making a big scram-
BILE, and it is just now fight be-
tween the agents of the big tax
lodging corporations and the
breweries, as to who is nearest
the governor. There are thous-
ands of good, loyal, unselfish
Republicans in Minnesota, who
have the welfare of the party at
heart, who want no Office, but
who do want the party to repre-
sent the people correctly on the
great issues of the day. With
good nominations, good plat
form, and good management the
Republicans of Minnesota can
continue in undisputed control
for many years..
The Duluth News-Tribune,
which has always been away in
the lead when the matter of par
ty fealty has been considered,
gives vent to the following edi-
torial utterance: "a newspaper
is not necessarily Democratic be-
cause it refuses to be a mere
party organ.
The Browns Valley Tribune,
commenting on the Stewartville
Stars comment tn a t: Party
solidarity sounds good but party
honesty goes down with the peo-
| pie much better, says, among
other things that: THE above
is quite true. The leaders, the
men who frame and make the
platforms of the parties, must
keep in touch with the wishes
and sentiments of the rank and
file of the party, or there is like
ly to be a revolt and a serious
revolt at any time. The people
have much to learn, no doubt,
but they have already grown too
intelligent regarding political
manipulations to stand for very
much deception"
Il With these caustic criticisms
ringing in their ears will the
party bosses take heed or will
they pursue their way to de-
struction an6 carry the party
down with them in the wreck?

The foremost traffic expert In
the country and the man who for
years has been dictator of all
transcontinental railroad rates is
John G. Stubs, traffic director of
the thousands of miles of rails
which comprise what Is generally
called THE Hartman Lines"
Forty of his sixty-two years
have been spent in railroad work,
and his present position, with its
vast influence, is but the logical
elimination of a long apprentice
ship and a rational promotion
from one post to a higher one.
In 1869, at the age of 90, he
began his railroad work, taking
a position as clerk in the general
freight office of the Pittsburg,
Cincinnati & st. Louis railway at
Columbus, o. In a year he was
claimed by the Central Pacific
railroad and made chief clerk in
the general freight office at Sacra-
mento, Cal. At the end of 1871
he was made assistant general
freight agent, rising in a year and
a half to be general freight agent.
In May, 1882, he was promoted
to the position of freight traffic
manager of the same road. Two
years later he was general traffic
manager of the Central Pacific
and its leased lines.
In 1886 Stubs was made gem
eral traffic manager of the
Southern Pacific company. Four
years later he was chosen third
