WILL BUILD new FACTORY
STANDARD Machinery COMPANY Needs
More Room For Rapidly Growing
Business.

The Improvement Association has
placed its approval on a plan of the
Standard Machine Company, to sell
to local capital $4,000 worth of pre-
ferred stock in the company, the
money to be used in erecting a modern
plant for the company, on South
Washington street, just south of
Brandel's boiler shop. Half of the
stock has already been subscribed,
two local capitalists declaring that
they would each take $4,000 worth.
1t is the desire of the company to
sell the stock as soon as possible that
work on the new building may be
started at once. The company is
greatly cramped in its present quar-
ters on East Comstock street and must
have more room.
The backing of the Improvement
Association was not sought by the
company but was offered after the
association had heard that the COM
pany planned to leave the city. The
industrial committee conferred with
the members of the company, and af-
ter going into the proposition made
by them, and investigating thoroughly
every side of the matter, recommended
to the association that the concern be
given the full support of the organiza-
tion. h
The plan of the company as ex-
planned by f. w. Brown, secretary
and treasurer, is to build a machine
shop, two stories high and 40x120
feet in dimensions, facing Washington
street, and a foundry 50x90 feet in
dimensions, facing the Grand Trunk
tracks, making an L-shaped plant. The
foundry will be built in such a man.
ner that an addition can be made if
necessary.
The machine company came here a
few months ago from Bay City and
bought out j. B. E. Castree, then en-
ploying four men. Since that time its
business has grown steadily, and now
it employees % men. Forty men will
be employed from the first in the new
plant. The officers of the company are
j. c. Fetter, president; j. "A. Radford,
vice president, and E. w. Brown, Sec
retary and treasurer. Both Messrs.
Fetter and Radford are practical ma
chinists, while Mr. Brown handles the
business end of the concern S affairs.
Mr.. Fetter was with the M. Garland
company of Bay City for % years, in
the shop, while Mr.. Brown was on the
road for the same company for nearly
% years. Mr.. Radford was foreman
in the plant of the McKinnon Manu-
featuring Company, Of Bay City, for
several years.
The company is to later redeem the
stock under the terms of contracts to
be made with the buyers.

"When the Smoke 10 Gone"

committee on ways and means of the
fifty.first house of representatives:
Il believe the great American mar

But it is the language of Joseph W.
Fordney, candidate for reelection
from the eighth congressional district
of Michigan. Mr.. Fordney adds
"Don't let the smoke from the am
munition factories hide the facts, for
you will want these markets when
that smoke is gone ="

Rarely ever is it possible to find a

the birth of the party some of the Vim
cent family has helped to send the glad
tidings on election night to swell the
majority for the nominees from presi-
dent down. Middlebury Republicans
have had little recognition in all these
years for this good work. There is

quarter of century done his full share

Shall the City Purchase Land About
Armory for Park2


The City Commission has again given
the citizens Of Owosso-all legal voters
and women who own taxable property
the opportunity to decide whether they
wish to bond the city for SO, 800 to pur.
chase all the vacant land about the
armory for park purposes. The land in
question extends from the residence of
G. NJ. Miller on the north to the old
brewery building on the south, back to
the river, making in all about three
acres Of land Just what the property
will cost is not known but in any event
not to exceed the amount of the pro.
posed bond issue can be expended by
the city. The land cannot be bought
for the $500 but in addition to this
sum the Commission will be given "a, 500
by Mr.. A. NJ. Bentley who has renewed
his former offer to give that amount for
the purchase of the property under cer-
tain conditions, one of which is that it
shall always be used for park purposes
only; the other relates to the price to
be paid for the land. At the meeting
held in the armory last week when re.
ports were made by those who attended
the recreation and play grounds ma.
I'll onal congress in Grand Rapids, Mayor
DeYoung made several statements
which should be known by all voters:
First, that every dollar of the city
m oney-if the bonds are voted-would
be expended only for the purchase and
i'm provement of the land; second. that
IL it is found impossible to purchase
the property at a price the Commission
deemed fair, it was the intention to
begin court proceedings to have the
same condemned, in which case jury

price. In making these statements he
said he spoke for himself personally and
for Commissioners Hanscom and Rose.
