Tuesday Night Meeting

The first Tuesday night" given
by the Y. M. G. A. was a success in
every way. The campaign was
launched by the securing of two
members. Rev. Mr.. Laughton's ad-
dress was to the point and very in
teresting, the orchestra did its part
in very creditable manner, the
games were all busy the entire eve
ming. The Y. w. c. A. girls came in
to add spice to the occasion, and
there were young men from out-of-
town, strangers in a strange city,
who found a royal welcome and were
entertained.
Next Tuesday evening will be mill
tia evening. Colonel McCaughna
will speak. Eddie Hyde has prom
ised some good vocal music, and the
orchestra will be on hand with a
good musical program. Company H
will be the invited guests The fol-
lowing Tuesday Mayor Burke will
deliver an address on the commits
sion form Of government.

Y. NJ. c. Association Activities

Acting upon the suggestion of the
educational work committee, the To-
cal Y. M. G. A. board has arranged
with the Owosso Business college for
special night school privileges. This
action was taken because of the con-
tinued demand of the young men OF
the city for such an institution. Stu
dents enrolling in the night scho6I
as Y. M. c. A. students will be given
reduced membership fee and the
tuition price will also be discounted
TO them.
The committee has planned aE
eight months course in several
branches under proficient instructors
Enrolment may be made at the
rooms with the secretary. 1t will re-
quire ten students to organize d.
class in any branch. Full informa-
tion may be secured at the Y. M. c.

Board Of Supervisors.

The October session of the Board of
Supervisors began Monday with all but
one member being present, Supervisor
Godfrey coming on crutches and re-
mained at Sheriff Watson's during the
week.
Monday morning the annual report
Of County Treasurer Shipman was
presented and referred to the commit.
tee on settlement with the treasurer.
The report was in excellent shape. The
purchasing agents report of Clerk A.
L. Nichols was also presented and re-
ferred to the committee on records in
the clerks Office. 1t shows the same
care as the clerk has always taken with
every department of his work.
The report of the Jail inspectors
Judge of Probate Bush, County Agent
G. II. Hanks, and c. R. Mclaughlin
and A. w. Green, superintendent of
the poor, shows less persons confined in
the Jail than in previous years, the
Jail and building in excellent shape and
most excellently managed.
Drain Commissioner John Boutwell,
made his annual report Tuesday and
as each year that he has held the Office
a large amount of work has been COM
pleted, all applications have been
promptly and properly handled, with
out going into court once. The ex-
pense of the work is less than ever
before for the same amount of work.
The election of school examiner to
succeed the late Olan Hoag was set for
2:30, Saturday, Oct. Is
The election of janitor will be held
Monday afternoon, Oct. II; the election
of board of canvassers Oct. 1S at 2:30

Want to Display Goods.

Thirty-two business men signed a
remonstrance to the council against
the new ordinance prohibiting the
blocking in any way of the sidewalks
and exposing of fruits, vegetables,
etc. to the dust and dirt of the street
and the worse contamination from
dogs.
The merchants claim that the or
dinance hampers and hinders the
proper execution of business" and
has a tendency to deaden the appear
ance of the city from business
standpoint. They offered a compro-
mise, which is in substance this:
1st-That they be allowed three
and a half feet of the sidewalks in
front of their store buildings, in
which to display their goods.
2nd-That all goods displayed, be
kept in a neat and regular condition.
3rd-That all foodstuff in open
packages be kept off the walk or
placed on tables, stands, shelves or
boxes.
4th-That Strawberries and other
small fruit be kept covered.
The council was about evenly di-
vided on the question of amending
the ordinance, but they finally voted
TO receive and file the petition, which
means that the business men will be
compelled to keep merchandise Of all
kinds off the streets entirely.

Talk Of County Fair.

The proposition of putting on a
county fair was introduced at the
Owosso improvement association s
luncheon Tuesday afternoon, and af-
ter being discussed at some length,
a committee consisting of J. c. Shat
tuck, e. o. Dewey, w. d. Burke,
Warren Pierpont and H. B. Sturte-
want was appointed to investigate
the matter thoroughly.
The proposition was made by w.
j. Bowling and James E. Corcoran,
who recently acquired possession of
the race track property on East
Main street, together with options
on enough land to make the total
acreage forty. The proprietors of
the track, asked the business men to
put up $4,000, for the improvement
of the grounds and the erecting of
the necessary buildings, ETC., with
the agreement that If Bowling &
Corcoran do not conduct success
full county fair for ten successive
years, the Association gets the mon
ey back or exclusive use of the entire
property.
The managers of the track have
the cooperation of Archibald Mccall
of Ithaca, who has had charge of
successful county fairs at that place
for several years past. 1t Is believed
by number of people. that the time
is ripe for a county fair, and that
there are plenty of prize-winning
specimens of livestock, etc., in the
county that are being taken to out
side fairs, and that If they were kept
here, would make the local fair a
grand success. The farmers will al
so be greatly interested in the pro-
ject, 1t is argued, and patronize the
fair not only by attending but by
furnishing exhibits. The matter will
be brought up again at subsequent
meeting.

Congressman Fordney Hopes to Meet
Everyone Before Eection.

The friends of Congressman Fordney
in the county are considerably disap-
pointed that he has not been able to
visit the county during the summer
and fall and the hope is generally ex-
pressed that he may yet be able to do
so during the campaign. For a mum.
Der of months past the family of Mr..
Fordney has had more than its share
of misfortunes, one daughter operated
on for appendicitis, his oldest sons
wife dying less than month ago,
while last week Mrs. Fordney under.
went very critical operation and her
condition is still such that Mr. Fordney
is unable to leave her bedside more
than few minutes at time. Added
to these it is. but short time since
Mr.. Fordney and one son had surgical
operations. He hopes, however, for
the best and expects to see all his
friends in the district before election

Herrick Can Be Deepen ded Upon.

The Bancroft Commercial puts its O.
K. on Edwin J. Herrick the Republi-
can nominee for Sheriff. in a substan-
tial way, saying of him:
1T is not necessary for the older vot-
ers of Shiawassee and Antrim town
ships to be enlightened on why Edwin
Herrick former ly of Bancroft, but for
the past few years of Corunna, should
be elected to the Office of Sheriff at the
general election in November; but the
younger and newer voters in the coun-
ty should be given few facts why.
First, Mr.. Herrick is qualified for
the Office far better than any new man
could possibly be for he had been dep
uty sheriff for Shiawassee two terms
before he was appointed Undersheriff
'by our present sheriff, j. A. Watson,
and has been called upon to fill every
position possible by a trusted deputy
and has always proved equal to the oc.
casion.
ho has always Ueeu hepuUilcdu
and believes in the principles of the
party, helping to elect good men to the
several offices in the county for many
years and now asks that he be given
an Office for which he has been fitting
himself by his Serving under higher
officials.
He can be depended upon to enforce
the laws of the state to the best of his
understanding of them and his prac-
tical experience has been beneficial in
that line"
