the saloon interests was that the senti-

counties was only local and would be
satisfied with the ground gained. Sue.

What the saloon is doing today by

that plea falls upon deaf ears.

To the Voters Of Shiawassee County

When man is reported to have
made statement against local option,
and his signature is not uuder the state
ment, reject it. In seven cases out of
ten the statement is false, and in nine
cases out of ten it is garbled. With
this in mind we sent our representative
to st. Johns to see what the business
men of that city thought of local op-
tion. Below is the result. Remember
that you can see the originals in the
committee rooms in the Y M. G. A.
Considering the fact that st. Johns
has no factories our business has been
good. Our collections have been excel
lent. Would not return to the saloon
regime under any consideration.

Business Pouring In.

Business is more than booming at
the w. L Parker Granite works.
Back east there is big strike on be-
tween the manufacturers of monu-

is quite general and as result it is
hard for dealers to get orders filled. In
consequence they have turned to other
sources and among them to the Parker
Granite Company of this city. Mr..
Parker says that at the rate orders are
pouring in he will have all he can at.
