Owosso to be Headquarters Of q
Trust7

1t develops that the merger of elec-
trio light and power and interurban
railway interests is going on as rapidly
as circumstances permit; and some cir
cumstances are favorable and some ad-
verse. The state railway commission
finds that the companies which have
applied for permission to issue bonds
have sufficient property to justify issu-
ance of the amount of bonds proposed.
This opens the way, if each of the 9TH
er companies make equally good show
ing, for the completion Of the scheme
in practically the manner first planned.
They will employ the familiar trust
device of holding company" In
these respects the progress seems to be
easy; but in Saginaw the bonds are to
be issued by one company to buy the
property of another and shut out COM
petition. So the city council is trying
through legal measures to prevent the
purchase, under the interstate COM
merce law, as being in restraint of
trade. AS reprisal they have ordered
removed from the streets certain poles
and wires of one of the companies.
When all is complete the headquarters
of the trust will be Owosso Every
thing indicates that ere long control of
the Allegan waterpower and all other
power that may be developed from the
Kalamazoo river will be held by this
combination. What will happen is in
dicated by the announcement that a
line will be laid from the Kalamazoo
river for transmission of electric cur
rent to Owosso. .-Allegan Gazette.

PERRY's CANDIDATE.
Titus s. Martin, by Precedent, is
ENTITLED to Place on the Big
Ticket.

Among those who attended the an
nual picnic of the farmers clubs at the
park Yesterday was F. NJ. Towner, the
well known elevator man of Morrice
tMr Towner chaperoned big bunch OF
Martin for Sheriff. men, and they
were very much ih evidence during the
day.
Mr.. Towner believes that Mr.. Martin
will poll very heavy vote throughout
the county, and gaining strength every
day, stands good chance to land in
front.
Perry township has not had a candi-
date on the republican ticket for about
thirty years" says Mr. Towner, land a
thinking man will concede that town
ship that always delivers good big
republican majority is entitled to
recognition. For this reason and the
fact that our candidate is gilt edge
man we ask support. Titus s. Martin
has always led the heavy artillery in
the ranks of the party in our vicinity,
and is man that can be relied on
every inch of the road. He is man
that is honost to the core, is a firm be-
lever in that old maxim, square deal
for all, and if he is nominated and
elected sheriff, the laws will be faith
fully and impartially upheld.
''Mr. Martin proposes to make as
thorough and complete canvass of the
county as the short time will permit,
but it will be impossible to meet all the
voters. The support of the republicans
is solicited. If the people of the county
knew him as well as his Perry township
neighbors do his election would be as.
sured. Independent.

THE STATE REPUBLICAN GIVES
WtiALEN A HOT SHOT.
Legislators Would Have Poetry Dc
iivered in Sub-CeIlar and RavIns
Over Earle on Roof.

John Whelan of Shiawassee, seems
to be entitled to the "champeen" title
for holding grudge as an issue. Two
years ago in the legislature he used
Horatio s. Earle, then highway COM
missioner of the state, as tackling
dummy, punching bag, spring board
and metaphorically at least, as a straw
man on which he jumped when tired of
his other athletic stunts. This year
John is trying to come back to another
session and in two column article in
some of his county papers he flaws
Horatio with his old time sprightliness.
That the object of his campaign issue
is out of Office and has been for some
time, but that does not seem to retard
the pleasure with which Whelan hales
him into the county and bangs away.
Some of the Legislators are talking that
If Whelan returns, special set of rules
will be adopted on his account whereby
he may retire to the sub-cellar to de-
liver his poetry and go to the roof to
rave over Horatio. Republican.

JOSEPH n. COLLINS
Seeks to be Advanced from Assistant
to Prosecuting Attorney - Has
Proven His CapabiIity-
Fearless and Dependable.

Born in the county, graduate of the
Corunna high school, student in the
law Office of Hon S. S. Miner, admitted
to the bar in 1894, practiced law in the
courts of this county since, served
nearly four years as assistant prosecut-
ing attorney-such in brief is the career
of Joseph II. Collins of Corunna, who is
asking the Republican electors of Shia-
wassee county to nominate him on Sep
tember 9th for the Office of prosecuting
attorney. Showing that many of the
leading citizens of the county had con-
fidence that he was worthy their sup
port is the splendid list of names en-
rolled on his primary petitions, several
hundred more than the law permitted
him to file and in number of cases
these petitions were circulated by citi-
zens who asked the privilege of taking
them to the voters of their to wnships.
Mr.. Collins capability for the Office
is not questioned by anyone. Indeed
the man who would undertake the task
could find little on which to base his
misgivings, The records of the justice
and circuit court show that Mr.. Collins
has enjoyed a good proctice and that
the interests Of his clients have been
faithfully and honestly looked after.
As assistant to the present prosecuting
attorney he has enjoyed to the full the
confidence of his chief and in return
has given good service. The training
as assistant has better fitted him for the
work he will have in hand If successful
in his aspirations.
Casting his first presidential vote for
Maj. Mckinley in the memorable cam
paign of 1896, he has since been con.
sistent, active member Of the Republi-
can party, which has already honored
him with two terms as circuit court
commissioner. deputy county clerk,
membership on the board OF county
canvassers. He has also served as city
attorney for Corunna. Not flaw is to
be found in his record in these Offices.
Is that not a guarantee Of what may be
expected from him as prosecutor Of the

Personally Popular.

Alfred A. Sutterby, the proprietor of
the farmers barn on East Main street,
and the popular supervisor of the sec

nation of county treasurer on the Re-
publican ticket and is desirous that
every Republican should know that
fact and then vote for him on primary
day week from next Tuesday. To
vote on that day is the duty of, every
citizen who is interested in the govern
ment of his county, state or nation
Mr.. Sutterby would not be displeased if
the majority of the Republicans voting
felt it both duty and a pleasure to
cast their ballot for him. He has said
that if called to the Office which he
seeks that he would give the duties his
personal attention and endeayor to con-
tinue the efficient management which
has prevailed under Treasurer Ship

pleasing to the voters of the county

Dansing residing there for two years

in Antrim township, which, with the
exception of two years spent in Perry

getting some schooling in the district

four years in the schools in Corunna,
dropping out to resume his place upon
the farm after he had finished three
years work in the high school. Beside
his farm work, he found teaching con.

schools of the county, taking advantage
of this respite from the farm to do

Passenger train No. IA which left
Durand at 1895 Wednesday evening
had gone but a, little more than two
miles when it was discovered that some
thing was wrong with the air brake
and the train was stopped to make re.
pairs, the brakeman being sent back to
place torpedoes and to give warning to
the second section of the train running
about a half hour behind the first
section. The brakeman states that he
went back 2400 feet and placed tor
pedo and that he endeavored to stop
the second train as it passed him. The
train ran on at speed of more than 40
miles an hour and the engineer claims
not to have seen any danger signal nor
to have heard any torpedo explosion
until within a short distance of the first
section and that it was then impossible
to stop his train. After reversing his
engine and throwing on the air brake
he and the fireman jumped from the
engine which crashed into the sleeper
on the rear of the stalled train, plowing
about half way through the car, killing
six persons and injuring FIVE others
besides several of the crews Of the two
trains.
The dead are: James M'Bean, Chi
cago; Mrs. Alma Woodward, en- route
Belfeld, N. D., to Port Huron, Mich. ;

Woodward, from st. Johns hospital,

Justice 8. G.. Patchell of Durand,

Attorney Hicks and the State Railway
Commission will institute most
searching inquiry to determine who is
to blame. At present 1t would seem
that the engineer on the second train
will have some difficulty In explaining
why he failed to heed the signals. An
exploded torpedo was found 1900 feet
from where the accident occurred.

NORTH CAROLINA MILLS
WILL HAVE MEETING

|. CHARLOTTE, n. c., June 15.-The an
nual meeting of the North Carolina Cot
ton Manufacturers association, repre-
senting S,25O0O0 spindles, will be held in
this city tomorrow. Over 100000 spin
dies will be represented at the meeting.
1t is likely some action will be taken
looking to a further curtailment of pro-
duction. A plan of reorganization will
be submitted by President r. NJ. Miller,
Jr., looking to the removal of difficult
ties heretofore encountered on account
of diversity of product.
The state association represents ali
lines of the textile industry-yarns. cloth,
etc. According to the proposed plan, sub
organizations are to be formed for each
line, such as the hard yarn depart
ment; the soft yarn department. the
gray or white goods department.; the
knit goods department, ETC. There will
be six vice presidents of the associa-
ton, one for each of the six depart
ments Matters pertaining to any spe-
cial department will be considered by the
sub-organizations. This will give the
benefits of six we'll organized bodies in
one association.
Conditions are unfavorable in all lines
of textile business in this state. and
it is estimated that at present mills are
curtailing so per cent with the likelihood
of heavier curtailment, and \ probably
shut down for a period during the sum-
mer months.

land his craft in city hall park.
His dirigible became unmanageable in
