The voters of the county have al
ready had one opportunity this
year to express their choice as TO
who should fill the several county
Offices after January 1st next and by
large majority the vote cast at the
primary indicated that the gentlemen
who sought nominations on the Re

when the cry is going up on all sides
to "let the people rule" it may not
be amiss to suggest that the result
of the primary shows who will win
at the polls when the next vote is
taken on November 5th. The citizens
OF the county without regard to po-
htical beliefs have been pretty we'll
satisfied with the management of
county affairs for several years past
and unless we are greatly mistaken
they will invite by very substantial
vote the present Republican officers
who are candidates for reelection to
continue on for two more years. This
will not be brought about solely by
Republican votes, as many voters OF
the other parties will find it pleas

Senator Rosenkrans' Record Unas-
sailabIe.

sailabIe.
(By Frank M. Sparks In the Grand Rapids
Herald
One of the cleanest, most dignified
and substantial members of the last
state senate is seeking re. election on
the Republican ticket That man is
Senator William A Rosenkrans of the
Ingham.Shiawassee district and he halls
from Corunna.
Senator Rosenkrans served his fret
term with the greatest credit to himself
and to his district. He is one of the
senators who stood stesdfastly for the
presidential primary law, immediate
effect and all, and fought for it con-
sistently from its first introduction to
the last vote taken upon it in the second
extra session. Bnt that was by no
means all of Mr.. Rosenkrans' good work
in the senate. He voted for the state
wide primary, for the corrupt practices
act because he stands for clean prim-
aries. He voted for the employers
liability and workingmen's compensa-
tion act, for the direct election of Unit
ed States senator, for the amendment
TO the federal constitution to provide
for the income act, for equal taxation
and many other good acts. He stood
for and fathered certain bills for max
ing the banking laws more effective.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1912-10-11

ago; we believe they have made good
and that their official course will be
approved by an increased majority
at the election. In fact, the Demo.
cratic party admits that Mr.. Collins
is all right by not making a nomina-
tion for the Office.
Four years of good service have
qualified Albert L. Nichols to better
perform the multitude of duties
whic ch come to the office of County
Clerk than could be expected from a
new official, and the same can be said
of Gilbert ]. Cole after six years in
cumbency of the Office of Register of
Deeds. Both of these gentlemen are
SO certain to be reelected that we
question whether either of their op-
ponents will waste any time in con-
testing with them for the favor of
the voters. The records in both
Offices are accurate and neat, the du-
ties of both attended to in a thor
ough-going manner and with a cour-
tesy which makes it a pleasure TO
come in contact with these officials.
AS County Treasurer, Frank H..
Rush has been ION the job" almost
every hour since he assumed the
Office n months ago and his popu-
larity is attested by the good words
spoken for him by those who have
occasion to do business with the
Office. Mr.. Rush's friends were GER
tain two years ago when he was first
nominated that this would be the
case as he had demonstrated his
ability to successfully handle public
work in other positions. Shiawa4see
has had many excellent treasurers,
and Mr.. Rush measures up to the
standard of his predecessors: the
work of the Office is always up to
date, the books correctly kept, and
none Of the duties of the office ne
elected. He has earned the good
will which all seem to have for him
and which assures his serving the
limit of the timt allowed by law
four years.
The splendidly balanced ticket is
completed with Neil r. Walsh and
William J. Parker, as candidates for
Circuit Court commissioners; Yer
non w. Royce for County Surveyor;
Alonzo Griffin for County Drain
Commissioners, and G. A. Cole and
Julius Kebler for Coroners. With the
exception of Messrs. Griffin and Keb-
ler, these men have served the county
satisfactorily in the past and can be
depended upon to do the same in the
future. Mr.. Griffin has been super
visor of Vernon township for long
term of years and is conversant with
county affairs and has had experience
which peculiarly fits him for the
office of Drain Commissioner. We
shall have more to say of these men
later on.

SENATOR w. A. RoSENKRANS.
A banker, himself. he understood the
business and was of material assistance
to Governor Osborn and Banking Com
missioner Doyle in strengthening the
laws by which the money of the people
when deposited in bank should be
safe. He was one of the clean, digni-
fed gentlemen of the senate. He is not
a politician in any sense of the word.
He rarely raised bis voice in debate,
but his influence was felt and his sd
wise needed in the cause of all thss'syas
good.
He is candidate to succeed himself
and his new platform provides the fol-
lowing:
Simplified primary elections,
Prison reform. a.
Honesty and efficiency in state as in
private affairs. N
Limitation of campaign expenses.
Equal taxation of both corporate and
private property.
Direct vote by the people on all mat
ters without unnecessary restrictions.
An automobile tax for the benefit of
good roads.
A square deal for all.
One of the things which is of great
est service to him in his campaign was
the fact that in the last legislature he
fathered and secured the passage of
bill to relieve Shawassee county Of the
payment of So, 900 for the use of troops
during the Durand strike.
