WHOLE NUMBER, 1218. Baking Powder Figures THAT DON'T LIE! S howtng excess of Cream Tartar in Andrews' Pearl over Royal, ascertained byGov- ernment Chemist Collier. The Royal Baking Powder Co. try to give the inference that their powder con- tains more C r e a m T a r t a r and that its Leavening P o w e r Is greater than uny oilier made, «8 stated in their advertisement on the "Comparative Worth of Bakln" Powders," exhibited by black lines. Our name was mentioned in connec- I ion with one of our cheaper brands, made of different materials as the trade might demand. Our Cream Tartar brand of A n d r e w ' s B't'iirl was omitted, evi- dently for a very jrood reason, judging from the relative merits of ANDREW'S -• PEARL " and the Royal, as clearly demonstrated by the Government Chemist, Dr. PETER COIAIBR of the Department of Agriculture, at Washington, from samples received by him from dealers who furnished the sample.-; from their stocks on Land in open market. DR. COLLIERS'ANALYSIS U. S. DKPT. OF AGRICULTURE. I WASHINGTON D. (_'., March 10,1883. f C. K. ANDREWS it Co.—Gentlemen : I received by expros- fromThoe. Lydon and J. P. Harking & Co., Grand Ave., Milwaukee, and Harper Bros., Chica- go, 111 , samples of Andrews' Pearl and Royal Bak- inc Powders. The cans were in good condition when received and the.seals unbroken. 1 rind upon analysis that Andrews' Pearl Baking Powder con- tains about foumini a hall (•!'£) per cent, more cream lartar than the Royal Baking Powder, and a proportionately larger percentage of carbonic acid «as, untl 1 iind it to he free from alum, and any injurious gulp- stances. Sincerely yours, PETER COLLIER, U. S. Chemist, Dept. of Agriculture. GmmM Chemist Collier's Analysis as to the Leavening Qualities. ANDREWS' PEARL ROYAL No wonder tho Royal Co. omitted Andrews" Pearl from their -'Comparative List."' as Government Chemist Collier's analysis shows conclusively two things: 1st, That Andrews' Pearl contains more Cream Tartar than the Royal, as shown by the cuts above; 2d, That the Leavening Power of Andrews Pearl is greater than the Royal, as shown by the two black lines above. CHALLENGE. We will me the Royal Co. or any one else $1,000 or $0,000 if they can prove by any fair mutual test that'Andrews' Pearl Baking Powder does, or ever did, contain alum or any injurious substances, and this challenge is open forever. Andrews Pearl Baking Powder is sustained by a testimonial as to itspiirity and slreiijjlli by the only genuine commissioned Government chemist, such as the Royal Co. never have pubHshed.

Funeral Friday p. m. The 50th birthday of Geo. J. Crowell, of Chelsea, was celebrated on Thursday of last week, and he was made the happy recipient of a fine gold watch and chain from friends, and a silver water service and silk handkerchief from relatives. One of the worst looking tramps that ever struck this village passed through here on Tuesday. He was lagged almost to nakedness and was covered with tilth. Such objects should be placed where they could not frighten women and children.— Manchester Enterprise.

Follett, relict of the late Benj Follett, died last Wednesday night, at her home in 1'psilanti, at an advanced age She had been an invalid for some time The early history of Ypsilanti is closely connected with the deceased and her es- teemed husband, and much of the early progress of the place is due to their enter pris'e. She leaves a family of four chil dren, all grown to man's estate. It can't be that our friend of the Milat Leader has had experience with brass band practicing.

There are in the state of Michigan be- tween 2,."i00 and 3,500 master horseshoers, employing probably on an average two men each, making about 7,000 employes, and counting 3,500 employers would make about 10,500 horse shocrs in the state. In a trial at Kalamazoo for selling li- quor to a minor, the defense urged the bov's father consented to the purchase, but the judge held the excuse not good— that the law contemplated the absolute in- terdiction of the sale of intoxicating liquoi to minors.

Our Michigan republican exchanges ap- pear to have dropped the fight against Cleveland. Butler and fusion, and turned their attention entirely to the prohibition- ists, whom they are trying to coax, bully or scare into voting for Blaine and Alger. —Traverse Bay Eagle. Bah ! black lamb! You just watch out from now until November, and see if vou don't get your stomach full. The Ingham County News gives Q. P. Sanford, once of the Lansing Journal,now candidate on the crawfish ticket for attor- ney general a little touch of history : The chairmen of the democratic and greenback county committees of Inghaffl :ounty aie employed by the state in the Capitol building at Lansing. How lon^ ago was it that Lansing democratic polF ticians used to stand on the street corners and shout that the republicans of this county were run by "state house pimps." The Port Austin News is sound on one Question, at any rate : No real temperance democrat—and there are many such—can vote for Cleveland aud his national platform without stulti- fying himself and giving the He to all his pretensions. Is it not time to^brcak away from a party which is espousing the cause of the liquor-seller? The once grand name of democrat has become an empty sound, a mockery; instead of upholding the people's rights and cause, that organ- ization now bows down a servant to the worst enomy (if the people—one more dan- gerous to the welfare of the nation than was ever negro slavery. The Michigan Christian Advocate don't believe the Methodist* will be used as a catspaw politically: "An attempt is being made by the enemies of religion to repre- sent that the church, especially Uic Methodist church, has gone bodily over to a political organization, and is to exei't all its religious agencies it its service. This is untrue, both in fact and spirit. The ministry are almost to a man prohi- bitionists, but each one of them stands and acts as an individual. The action of conferences may be never so outspoken for a principle, but it is merely advisory, and docs not bind the political action of the membership. The M. E. church is distributed between all the political par- ties, and will continue to have various partisan affiliations." Muskegon Chronicle : The pork and beans in which the cockeyed son of the bunting monopoly feasted himself while in this city did not seem to agree with his corpulency, judging from the temper he was in when he reached Chicago. A dis- patch to the Grand llapids Times says: " B . P. Hutchinson, familiarly known on tlie board of trade as old Hutch, who was an intimate friend of Butler several years ago, approached him from behind and tap- ped him on the back ; Butler was not in a jjood humor, and said angrily, 'If you do that again, sir, I will strike you across the head with this cane.' Hutchinson looked astonished, and not desiring to be put off followed Butler to his room. Butler pointed to the door and Hiitchiuson walk- ed off in high indignation." And now " Old Hutch " gets even by calling Ben. a "cockeyed son of a b-bunting monop- oly." The Cedar Springs Clipper speaks of a subject that needs attention from Uncle Samuel: The barbed wire fence has been made the instrument of crime and fraud in the western states and territories. By its use thieving corporations composed of for- eigners, and thieving Americans and for- eigners, all engaged in cattle raising, have inclosed and stolen millions of acres of public land. This kind of crime has been complained of and reported to the Fed- eral authorities for yearsjpast, but the gov- ernment seems to have had so many other things to attend to that the recovery of these stolen acres of the public domain and the prosecution and punishment of the robbers have not been attended to. Now, however, the government is about to move in earnest, and by the time James G. Blame's presidential term expires no man in the west or southwest will exer- cise the authority of ownership over any land he cannot show a title to. Here's a bit of law from the Shiavvassee American: Attorney-General Van Riper holds that the legislature of 1878, providing for the instruction of pupils in physiology and hygiene, with special reference to the ef- fects of alcoholic drinks, stimulants and narcotics generally upon the human sys- tem, applies to all schools. Even in places where the city charter gives the board of education the right to prescribe the course of studies to be pursued, that right is only to be exercised when the legislature has not specially provided what studies shall be taught. When studies are prescribed by law the board can only specify such other studies as are not prescribed by law. Boards of school examiners, he adds, may revoke the certificate of a teacher if the holder is incompetent to (each the special studies required under the act. All teach- ers are required to pass a satisfactory ex- amination in reference to alcoholic drinks after September 1st. Au occasional talk on the subject is not in compliance with the law. The use of text books is required. Bro. Bissell, of tho Albion Republican, talks business in this way : Occasionally some of our subscribers take us to task for berating Prof. Dickie while others think we do not censure him as much as he deserves. The matter is just this : As a citizen, a'capable collect professor, an able public speaker, we en- tertain for Prof. Dickie a high respect. lint as a politician and a champion of the union or prohibition party, the case is otherwise. We are and always have been a republican, a republican from principle and not from policy. As the different po- litical parties arc now composed we coull not affiliate with any but the republlcai party, and were we to try, should make 1 sorry failure of it. We are runnings re- pulican paper, and thus doing what we can to uphold and disseminate the princi- ples and policy of that party. Now Prof. Dickie has repeatedly declared that one object of the party he represents is to over- throw and destroy the party we represent. In his speech at* Lansing, last week, in their state convention, he said : " We are here tu kill the old parties." If that is his aim and the aim of his followers, then, of course, we arc opposed to him and them, and feel that it is our right and duty to criticise, censure, oppose and expose, to the best of our ability. War has been declared, and we are in the ranks, on the field, to defend and conquer. Literary Notes.

The Spelling Class., Uncle Sam—President. Jimmy Blaine, with an eye on the rec- oul—P-r-e-c prec, e, prece, d-e-n-t, dent, precedent. Grover Cleveland, watching George William Curtis, who is shaking his head and working his mouth very fast, holds up his hand. Uncle Sam—Well? Cleveland—confused between the inar- ticulate mouthings of Curtis and the slate which Carl Schurz holds up with "$200 a night, in nkirslicfi <»li<;At;r," written on it, at length catches John Kejly's eye glar- ing fiercely at him and ventures—P-r-i-z, priz.

St. John, a new boy—PJease may I go for a bucket of water? ^ Uncle Sam walks back to Blaine's desk and hands him something which very much resembles a persimmon. Blaine of- fers Logan a bite. Chorus of whispers from the Indepen- dent corner—Gimme a bite! You know me, Jim ! Gimme the core? Democratic Authority. The contemptbile and shameless action of the Indianapolis Sentinel in attempt- ing to destroy the fair name of Mr. Blaine and his wife and family, has been properly characterized by the people and papers generallj', and promptly and manfully met by Mr. Blaiue himself. All there is of the whole matter is told In the following letter from the son of Thornton F. Johnson, the principal of tlie school in Kentucky in which Mr. and Mrs. Blaine were teachers. The writer of the letter is now city civil en- gineer at Dallas, Texas, and is a highly respected democrat. The letter is ad- dressed to tlie editor of the Indianapolis Times, and is as follows : In answer to your request for a state- ment as to any facts relating to the slan- der concerning Mr. and Mrs. Blaine, as published in the Indianapolis Sentinel, I will say tIlls much : This slander was first circulated at Drendon Springs, Ky., in March, 1851, by a pernicious scandal monger, a tailor from Millersburg In the same state, then on a visit to Drendon to collect some bills due him by the cadets for suits sold them the previous session at Blue Licks. His object In originating this story was either to pander to the appetite of young men for such subjects or to gratify some spite he entertained against Mr. Blaine. Mr. Blaine being then absent from tlie institute on a trip to Louisville, Ky., tlie scandal did not reach his ears or it would have been summarily disposed of then and there forever. Remaining uncontra- dicted, although unbelieved in, it was scattered to the four winds of Heaven by the lovers of such tittle-tattle. In this way originated the slander against the fair name of a most modest lady; with- out even the shade of a shadow of fact tn warrant such an insinuation. Mr. Blaine remained as professor of Latin in the institution until 1852, my father, the principal, dying October, 1851. Does it stand to reason that, with even the least possibility of such a story being true, Mr. Blaine would have been allowed to remain at the institute, or that mv father could associate with euch a man ? As for myself I can say that for four years I knew both Mr. and Mrs. Blaine inti- mately, as thoroughly as any man can know his own brother and sister, living under the same roof, eating at the same table, members of the same family circle, I yet I never even dreamed of such a sus- picion. Never was there a more modest and prudent lady than Miss Stanwood ; never a more perfect gentleman than Mr. Blaine. While I always liked Mr. Blaine as a professor and admired him as a man, yet in politics we differ materially, as much so as it is possible for a demo- crat to differ from a republican, and this statement is not written to advance his cause as the candidate of his party for the presidency, but to vindicate the fair fame of Mr*. Blaine. I close by stating that in my opinion, and as far as I know, the story is a false and malicious slander in every particular. WnxiAM M. Jonxsox. Nebraska as It Is. The following letter from G. M. Mon- roe, whom most of our Ann Arbor folks know, to Dewitt C. Fall, of this place, gives a good description of Nebraska as he sees it, and is well worth reading: "My field of labor since my return has been in Buffalo county, along the South Loup river, known here as the "Sand Bluffs." It is not a desirable section of the state for agricultural purposes, and principally used for grazing. There are a number of quite extensive cattle ranches up along the Lonp river. The "ravines" known in the wot as ".(raws" are filled with the wild sunflower In full bloom. It is a perfect "Osear Wilde" country. I closed my labors In Buffalo county last Friday, and returned here to spend the Sabbath. This afternoon 1 take a trip of 75 miles up through How- ard, Greely and Valley counties, north- west from Grand Island. The northern branch of the Union Pacific railroad has its terminus at North Loup. I will be obliged to stage it from there to Ord ('ity, a distance of 20 miles further. A few words in regard to Grand bland. It is the county seat of" Hall county, is 154 miles west from Omaha, 92 miles from Lincoln, and 700 from Denver. It stands on a gravelly plateau, a short distance lr m\ tie great Plait; river, and 100 feet above its level. The present city springs from one of the oldest settlements in the state. Away back In 1857, a band of sturdy Germans from Iowa set their stakes here, and to-day a great number of them, or their children, are enjoying the wealth and comfort earned by early years of toil and deprivation. Those first days recall scenes of hard- ships only known to the harsh experience of the frontier. There were disasters from storms, fire and grasshoppers, to- gether with threatened starvation and brutal assaults from the fiendish Sioux. But now they live only in the memory of the pioneer, and generally are forgotten amid the fortune and favoritism ot the present. The overland travel to Pike's Peak In 1859 gave tlie settlers their first encouragement and taught the creeping- colony how to walk. And the whistle of the locomotive on the U. P. in I860 was the sound that charmed the immigration to Hall county, which gave Grand Island its great vigor and progressive steps to fortune. The city is handsomely laid out, and was incorporated in 1872 .It can lay claim to most important Improvements, the leading being the immense machine shops of the Union Pacific railway com- pany. They aic located in me eastern part of tlie city, 120 acres of ground are devoted to the purpose, and the buildings are all substantially constructed of lime- stone, the total expenditures being about $300,000. Grand Island' has splendid railroad facilities east and west, north and south. It has a splendid system of water works, the supply being obtained from 12 wells, and the power comes from one of the large engines In the machine shops, which is kept running night and day for this purpose. The court house, which stands in the beautiful public park, cost over $20,000, and is a solid and well built structure. Two large brick school build- ings, costing $20,000 each, are among the best In the state. Attractive church edi- fices, substantial commercial houses, fire hotels, and rich and comfortable resi- liences give a business air to the city, and a guarantee ot prosperity that the most casual observer can recognize at a glance. Three ably conducted papers are pub- lished here. Trade in all of its varied branches is represented here by large capital and energetic operators. Grand Island i3 the seat of trade for all the ex- tensive northwestern Nebraska territory. It is the largest city on the Union Pacific west of Omaha. This count}' is exceed- ingly well watered. The Platte honors the county with its broadest channel, Wood river comes next in size and im- portance, while Prairie creek and numer- ous small streams, and plenty of living springs of fine volume, can be found on almost every section of land in the county. About forty per cent, of the land is valley, and the rest gently rolling prairie. The soil is of a deep black, sandy loam, and this generation will never see the day that its fertility will have to be "coached" by artificial means. In 1882 this county obtained the first premium at the State Fair, held In Omaha, for the finest and best collection of fruits. Sim»n E. Sinke, the genial and sociable teller of the First National bank at Grand Island, is well pleased with his situation, and is giving good satisfaction. (He was formerly in the Ann Arbor Savings bank.) Remember me to the boys. We are having exceedingly warm weather here at present, but comfortable nights for sleeping." Real Estate Transfers. Juliette M. Otis to Thos. B.

Baking Powder FiguresTHAT DON'T LIE!

S howtng excess of Cream Tartar in Andrews'Pearl over Royal, ascertained byGov-

ernment Chemist Collier.

The Royal Baking Powder Co. try to give the inference that their powder con-tains more Cream T a r t a r and that its L e a v e n i n g P o w e r Is greater thanuny oilier made, «8 stated in their advertisement on the "Comparative Worth ofBakln" Powders," exhibited by black lines. Our name was mentioned in connec-I ion with one of our cheaper brands, made of different materials as the trade mightdemand. Our Cream T a r t a r brand of A n d r e w ' s B't'iirl was omitted, evi-dently for a very jrood reason, judging from the r e l a t i v e meri t s of ANDREW'S-• PEARL " and the Royal, as clearly demonstrated by the Government Chemist, Dr.PETER COIAIBR of the Department of Agriculture, at Washington, from samplesreceived by him from dealers who furnished the sample.-; from their stocks on Landin open market.

WASHINGTON D. (_'., March 10,1883. f

C. K. ANDREWS it Co.—Gentlemen : I received byexpros- fromThoe. Lydon and J. P. Harking & Co.,Grand Ave., Milwaukee, and Harper Bros., Chica-go, 111 , samples of Andrews' Pearl and Royal Bak-inc Powders. The cans were in good conditionwhen received and the.seals unbroken. 1 rind uponanalysis that Andrews' Pearl Baking Powder con-tains about foumini a hall (•!'£) per cent, m o r ecream lartar than the Royal Baking Powder,and a proportionately larger percentageof carbonic acid «as, untl 1 iind it to hefree from alum, and any injurious gulp-stances.

Sincerely yours,PETER COLLIER,

U. S. Chemist, Dept. of Agriculture.

GmmM Chemist Collier's Analysis as to the Leavening Qualities.ANDREWS' PEARL

ROYALNo wonder tho Royal Co. omitted Andrews" Pearl from their -'Comparative

List."' as Government Chemist Collier's analysis shows conclusively two things:1st, That Andrews' Pearl contains more Cream Tartar than the Royal, asshown by the cuts above; 2d, That the Leavening P o w e r of Andrews Pearlis greater than the Royal, as shown by the two black lines above.

CHALLENGE.We will me the Royal Co. or any one else $1,000 or $0,000 if they can prove by

any fair mutual test that'Andrews' Pearl Baking Powder does, or ever did, containalum or any injurious substances, and this challenge is open forever. AndrewsPearl Baking Powder is sustained by a testimonial as to itspiirity a n d slreiijjlliby the only genuine commissioned Government chemist, such as the Royal Co.never have pubHshed.

OUR ESTEEMED COTEMPORARIES.

Bah ! black lamb! You just watchout from now until November, and see ifvou don't get your stomach full.

The Ingham County News gives Q. P.Sanford, once of the Lansing Journal,nowcandidate on the crawfish ticket for attor-ney general a little touch of history :

The chairmen of the democratic andgreenback county committees of Inghaffl:ounty aie employed by the state in the

Capitol building at Lansing. How lon^ago was it that Lansing democratic polFticians used to stand on the street cornersand shout that the republicans of thiscounty were run by "state house pimps."

The Port Austin News is sound on oneQuestion, at any rate :

No real temperance democrat—and thereare many such—can vote for Clevelandaud his national platform without stulti-fying himself and giving the He to all hispretensions. Is it not time to^brcak awayfrom a party which is espousing the causeof the liquor-seller? The once grandname of democrat has become an emptysound, a mockery; instead of upholdingthe people's rights and cause, that organ-ization now bows down a servant to theworst enomy (if the people—one more dan-gerous to the welfare of the nation thanwas ever negro slavery.

The Michigan Christian Advocate don'tbelieve the Methodist* will be used as acatspaw politically: "An attempt is beingmade by the enemies of religion to repre-sent that the church, especially UicMethodist church, has gone bodily overto a political organization, and is to exei'tall its religious agencies it its service.This is untrue, both in fact and spirit.The ministry are almost to a man prohi-bitionists, but each one of them standsand acts as an individual. The action ofconferences may be never so outspokenfor a principle, but it is merely advisory,and docs not bind the political action ofthe membership. The M. E. church isdistributed between all the political par-ties, and will continue to have variouspartisan affiliations."

Muskegon Chronicle : The pork andbeans in which the cockeyed son of thebunting monopoly feasted himself whilein this city did not seem to agree with hiscorpulency, judging from the temper hewas in when he reached Chicago. A dis-patch to the Grand llapids Times says:" B . P. Hutchinson, familiarly known ontlie board of trade as old Hutch, who wasan intimate friend of Butler several yearsago, approached him from behind and tap-ped him on the back ; Butler was not in ajjood humor, and said angrily, 'If you dothat again, sir, I will strike you across thehead with this cane.' Hutchinson lookedastonished, and not desiring to be put offfollowed Butler to his room. Butlerpointed to the door and Hiitchiuson walk-ed off in high indignation." And now" Old Hutch " gets even by calling Ben.a "cockeyed son of a b-bunting monop-oly."

The Cedar Springs Clipper speaks of asubject that needs attention from UncleSamuel:

The barbed wire fence has been madethe instrument of crime and fraud in thewestern states and territories. By its usethieving corporations composed of for-eigners, and thieving Americans and for-eigners, all engaged in cattle raising, haveinclosed and stolen millions of acres ofpublic land. This kind of crime has beencomplained of and reported to the Fed-eral authorities for yearsjpast, but the gov-ernment seems to have had so many otherthings to attend to that the recovery ofthese stolen acres of the public domainand the prosecution and punishment ofthe robbers have not been attended to.Now, however, the government is aboutto move in earnest, and by the time JamesG. Blame's presidential term expires noman in the west or southwest will exer-cise the authority of ownership over anyland he cannot show a title to.

Here's a bit of law from the ShiavvasseeAmerican:

Attorney-General Van Riper holds thatthe legislature of 1878, providing for theinstruction of pupils in physiology andhygiene, with special reference to the ef-fects of alcoholic drinks, stimulants andnarcotics generally upon the human sys-tem, applies to all schools. Even in placeswhere the city charter gives the board ofeducation the right to prescribe the courseof studies to be pursued, that right is onlyto be exercised when the legislature hasnot specially provided what studies shallbe taught. When studies are prescribedby law the board can only specify suchother studies as are not prescribed by law.Boards of school examiners, he adds, mayrevoke the certificate of a teacher if theholder is incompetent to (each the specialstudies required under the act. All teach-ers are required to pass a satisfactory ex-amination in reference to alcoholic drinksafter September 1st. Au occasionaltalk on the subject is not in compliancewith the law. The use of text books isrequired.

Bro. Bissell, of tho Albion Republican,talks business in this way :

Occasionally some of our subscriberstake us to task for berating Prof. Dickiewhile others think we do not censure himas much as he deserves. The matter isjust this : As a citizen, a'capable collectprofessor, an able public speaker, we en-tertain for Prof. Dickie a high respect.lint as a politician and a champion of theunion or prohibition party, the case isotherwise. We are and always have beena republican, a republican from principleand not from policy. As the different po-litical parties arc now composed we coullnot affiliate with any but the republlcaiparty, and were we to try, should make 1sorry failure of it. We are runnings re-pulican paper, and thus doing what wecan to uphold and disseminate the princi-ples and policy of that party. Now Prof.Dickie has repeatedly declared that oneobject of the party he represents is to over-throw and destroy the party we represent.In his speech at* Lansing, last week, intheir state convention, he said : " We arehere tu kill the old parties." If thatis his aim and the aim of his followers,then, of course, we arc opposed to him andthem, and feel that it is our right and dutyto criticise, censure, oppose and expose,to the best of our ability. War has beendeclared, and we are in the ranks, on thefield, to defend and conquer.

Democratic Authority.

The contemptbile and shameless actionof the Indianapolis Sentinel in attempt-ing to destroy the fair name of Mr.Blaine and his wife and family, has beenproperly characterized by the people andpapers generallj', and promptly andmanfully met by Mr. Blaiue himself.All there is of the whole matter is told Inthe following letter from the son ofThornton F. Johnson, the principal oftlie school in Kentucky in which Mr.and Mrs. Blaine were teachers. Thewriter of the letter is now city civil en-gineer at Dallas, Texas, and is a highlyrespected democrat. The letter is ad-dressed to tlie editor of the IndianapolisTimes, and is as follows :

In answer to your request for a state-ment as to any facts relating to the slan-der concerning Mr. and Mrs. Blaine, aspublished in the Indianapolis Sentinel, Iwill say tIlls much :

This slander was first circulated atDrendon Springs, Ky., in March, 1851,by a pernicious scandal monger, a tailorfrom Millersburg In the same state, thenon a visit to Drendon to collect somebills due him by the cadets for suits soldthem the previous session at Blue Licks.His object In originating this story waseither to pander to the appetite of youngmen for such subjects or to gratify somespite he entertained against Mr. Blaine.Mr. Blaine being then absent from tlieinstitute on a trip to Louisville, Ky., tliescandal did not reach his ears or it wouldhave been summarily disposed of thenand there forever. Remaining uncontra-dicted, although unbelieved in, it wasscattered to the four winds of Heaven bythe lovers of such tittle-tattle. In thisway originated the slander against thefair name of a most modest lady; with-out even the shade of a shadow of facttn warrant such an insinuation.

Mr. Blaine remained as professor ofLatin in the institution until 1852, myfather, the principal, dying October, 1851.Does it stand to reason that, with eventhe least possibility of such a story beingtrue, Mr. Blaine would have been allowedto remain at the institute, or that mvfather could associate with euch a man ?As for myself I can say that for four yearsI knew both Mr. and Mrs. Blaine inti-mately, as thoroughly as any man canknow his own brother and sister, livingunder the same roof, eating at the sametable, members of the same family circle,

I yet I never even dreamed of such a sus-picion. Never was there a more modestand prudent lady than Miss Stanwood ;never a more perfect gentleman than Mr.Blaine. While I always liked Mr.Blaine as a professor and admired him asa man, yet in politics we differ materially,as much so as it is possible for a demo-crat to differ from a republican, and thisstatement is not written to advance hiscause as the candidate of his party forthe presidency, but to vindicate the fairfame of Mr*. Blaine. I close by statingthat in my opinion, and as far as I know,the story is a false and malicious slanderin every particular.

Nebraska as It Is.

The following letter from G. M. Mon-roe, whom most of our Ann Arbor folksknow, to Dewitt C. Fall, of this place,gives a good description of Nebraska ashe sees it, and is well worth reading:

"My field of labor since my return hasbeen in Buffalo county, along the SouthLoup river, known here as the "SandBluffs." It is not a desirable section ofthe state for agricultural purposes, andprincipally used for grazing. There area number of quite extensive cattleranches up along the Lonp river. The"ravines" known in the wot as ".(raws"are filled with the wild sunflower In fullbloom. It is a perfect "Osear Wilde"country. I closed my labors In Buffalocounty last Friday, and returned here tospend the Sabbath. This afternoon 1take a trip of 75 miles up through How-ard, Greely and Valley counties, north-west from Grand Island. The northernbranch of the Union Pacific railroad hasits terminus at North Loup. I will beobliged to stage it from there to Ord ('ity,a distance of 20 miles further.

A few words in regard to Grand bland.It is the county seat of" Hall county, is 154miles west from Omaha, 92 miles fromLincoln, and 700 from Denver. It standson a gravelly plateau, a short distancel rm\ tie great Plait; river, and 100 feetabove its level. The present city springsfrom one of the oldest settlements in thestate. Away back In 1857, a band ofsturdy Germans from Iowa set theirstakes here, and to-day a great numberof them, or their children, are enjoyingthe wealth and comfort earned by earlyyears of toil and deprivation.

Those first days recall scenes of hard-ships only known to the harsh experienceof the frontier. There were disastersfrom storms, fire and grasshoppers, to-gether with threatened starvation andbrutal assaults from the fiendish Sioux.But now they live only in the memory ofthe pioneer, and generally are forgottenamid the fortune and favoritism ot thepresent. The overland travel to Pike'sPeak In 1859 gave tlie settlers their firstencouragement and taught the creeping-colony how to walk. And the whistle ofthe locomotive on the U. P. in I860 wasthe sound that charmed the immigrationto Hall county, which gave Grand Islandits great vigor and progressive steps tofortune. The city is handsomely laid out,and was incorporated in 1872 .It can layclaim to most important Improvements,the leading being the immense machineshops of the Union Pacific railway com-pany. They aic located in me easternpart of tlie city, 120 acres of ground aredevoted to the purpose, and the buildingsare all substantially constructed of lime-stone, the total expenditures being about$300,000.

Grand Island' has splendid railroadfacilities east and west, north and south.It has a splendid system of water works,the supply being obtained from 12 wells,and the power comes from one of thelarge engines In the machine shops, whichis kept running night and day for thispurpose. The court house, which standsin the beautiful public park, cost over$20,000, and is a solid and well builtstructure. Two large brick school build-ings, costing $20,000 each, are among thebest In the state. Attractive church edi-fices, substantial commercial houses, firehotels, and rich and comfortable resi-liences give a business air to the city, anda guarantee ot prosperity that the mostcasual observer can recognize at a glance.Three ably conducted papers are pub-lished here. Trade in all of its variedbranches is represented here by largecapital and energetic operators. GrandIsland i3 the seat of trade for all the ex-tensive northwestern Nebraska territory.It is the largest city on the Union Pacificwest of Omaha. This count}' is exceed-ingly well watered. The Platte honorsthe county with its broadest channel,Wood river comes next in size and im-portance, while Prairie creek and numer-ous small streams, and plenty of livingsprings of fine volume, can be found onalmost every section of land in thecounty. About forty per cent, of theland is valley, and the rest gently rollingprairie. The soil is of a deep black,sandy loam, and this generation willnever see the day that its fertility willhave to be "coached" by artificial means.In 1882 this county obtained the firstpremium at the State Fair, held InOmaha, for the finest and best collectionof fruits.

Sim»n E. Sinke, the genial and sociableteller of the First National bank atGrand Island, is well pleased with hissituation, and is giving good satisfaction.(He was formerly in the Ann ArborSavings bank.)

Remember me to the boys.We are having exceedingly warm

weather here at present, but comfortablenights for sleeping."

FISHERMAN'S LUCK AS USUAL,

This campaign, on the opposition side,i.- something liNc Arteniua Ward's mulein tlic BIIOW. It will be remembered thaihe was "an lunoosin' cuss." So i.« thecouifloiuciiited inuss of itmalgumated pol-iticians and parties forming the <>|i|>o.~i-tlon, "iiinoci.-iir."

The pooling of county candidates, statecandidates, electors, etc., by Hie demo-crats, greenbHCkers, anti-monopolists,etc., etc, reminds us very oiuch of a largeparty who wentiishlug once. They allagreed to pool the "catch," that is, patall Hie n'sli caught In a large receptacleprepared for the occasion, and when tlieygot through fishing they were to divideup prorate. Well, things went alongswimmingly, until they got ready to gohome, when each fisherman marched upto the box containing the "catch" with along cord in his hands on which to stringhis share oi' the fish. But upon openingthe box it was found that there wereonly three pom- little fish to divide amongten great fishermen. Each one of theparty had left the work of catching thefish to his neighbor, and proceeded tohave a good time, believing that the oth-ers would do the work for the fun of it andthat his shafe would be ample anyway.The general scrimmage that ensued overthose three fish was terrible to relate.The HubbaM-Breezee-Journn] war atDetroit last week was a gentle zephyr incomparison.

So it will be with the crawfish combi-nation. When they go to string theirflail there won't be any to string, andthen the circus will commence.

The question of prohibition wha re-submitted to the people of Maine at therecent election, and the vote upon thesame stood, Ht our latest advices, 64,607 infavor, and 20,224against; leaving a hand.some majority of 44,333 in itrf favor.

As Maine is strongly republican thatresult was possible.

We ask our prohibitory friends if alike result would be possible in Kentucky,Missouri, New Jersey, Delaware, Texas,or any other strong democratic state?

Does not this very result prove con-clusively to all fair minded men, wherethe friends of temperance are to befound?

By some mistake in print the impres-sion had gained credence among the peo-ple nl the city that Gen. Logan, whoniude a Bve minutes speech at the depotMonday \. u., was simply to pass throughtin' place, without giving the people achance to hear him. But notwithstand-ing there was a big crowd at the depot at10:30 o'clock, the time for the special toarrive, and it kept on increasing untilfully .'i,000 people greeted the old BlackWar Eagle—one of the standard bearersot the great black republican party inthis campaign.

As the train rolled into the depot, thejolly face and the rotund form of the Hon..Junior Senator Thomas W. Palmer wasvisible upon the rear platform, and asthe train stopped lie stepped forward andintroduced the gentleman whom thecrowd was waiting to hear, the Hon.John A. Logan.

Mr. Logan commenced his brief speechby complimenting the state, the countyand the city, l ie said that as a citi/en ofIllinois lie felt proud of the grand repu-tation the place had attained throughoutthe world by reason of the universitythat was within her borders, its fame hav-ing extended far across the ocean and in-to foreign lands. He also spoke of thehigh school having no superior in theunion, which advantage gave the peoplea wide spread reputation for intelligence.Wherever we lind educational institutionsof this kind we lind a cultured, liberal,thinking people. He believed that therewere no other people to-day among whomknowledge and literary attainments wereso widely diffused as among the people ofthis great, nation. The speaker then re-ferred to the fact that every four yearsthe people were called upon to make aselection, to choose of what character theaffairs of the nation should partake, andwhat policy was best suited to the coun-try. He thought it would be wise at thislime to continue in the line of prosperity,wealth and growth that the country hadbeen enjoying for a period of twentyyears, which policy had been bredand fostered by the republican party,lie believed in protecting, fostering, andbuilding up the various industries of thecountry, and in this connection referredto the training the youths of the land 04U-

Grand Republican RallyAT THE COURT HOUSE,

GOk JOHN ATKINSONThursday Evening, Sept. ltttti.

GEN". JOHN A. LOGAN.Dinna ye hear the slogan ?Jimmle Blaine aud Johnnie Logan.

The republican candidate for vice-pres-ident has* been seen by many of oy.r citi-zens this week and the verdict is one ofstrong approval. His father was fromthe north of Ireland and his mother of thesturdy Scotch race, so he inherits thesterling qualities of these people and addsto them American push aud sober com-mon eouee

llisbravery made him a brilliant recordboth in the Mexican war and the Rebel-lion; while his statesmanship has madehim a name as an orator on the stump,in the house of lepresentati'ves and in thesenate.

His soldiers loved him, for he neverasked them to go into any place of dangerwhere he would not go himself. AndBVery one always admires such patriotismas hejghowed, when, on the breaking outof the war, he returned from Washingtonto his home, and rinding nearly all hisfriends, neighbors and constituents warm-ly sympathizing with secession, and rais-ing rebel troops, he at once took the ros-trum and in a thrilling speech so stirredtheir hearts as to turn the tide for theunion and to save southern Illinois fromthe disgrace of disloyalty.

In 1S08 he was the Commander-in chiefof the Grand Arnvy of the Republic, andwe owe to him the first setting apart ofa Decoration Day. He has also been ofgreat aid in Congress to the soldiers incuring for the pension bills.

In all the bitter attacks of the demo-cratic press upon the republican candi-dates they make no points against Gen.John A. Logan, as a soldier, a citizen, astatesman or as an honest, capable map.This is because they cannot.

Since the opening of the campaign hehas spoken daily, aud often many times aday. This too, he has done without re-peating himself or without saying a thingto compromise either himself or his party—something but few statesmen can do.It all shows his admirable candidacy forthe high office for which he is in everyway worthy.

Because Robert E. Frazcr proved toomuch for the fellow named Mike Fan-ning and his alleged "open letter," bothFanning and the narrow sect he repre-sents have gone to abusing that gentle-man, because he dare stand by his con-victions and take a course he believes tobe right.

Such men as Fanning lead thinkingpeople to believe that the democratic cor-ruption fund has found a place where itwill do the most good.

There is not a democratic paper in theslate of Michigan that dare say one word infavor of temperance measure* and temper-ance men, and yet every democratic paperis patting every prohibitionist on hisback or stroking his head and calling himn noble fellow. And if these prohibition-ists succeed in pulling their chestnuts outof the fite, these SMIIC papers will turnaround and kick them, with theirpoor burned paws, out into the street,without even giving them the schuck thatwrapped thp kftrnpl to om«.ll ot

A GL0BI0US RESULT.

In last week's issue the majority for therepublican ticket "given in Maine wasplaced at 10,000, but as the more remotetowns kept comina: in, the returns keptgetting better and better. Complete re-turns now put Gov. Robie's majority at20,6151 The largest ever given in thestate with one exception. Will the Xewfork World, and other papers that saidthe republicans had nothing to crow over?

admit the fact now, that they have?

Beside that, the republicans have car-ried every county in the state! Theyhave elected every member of the statesenate ! They have elected every countyofficer in the state except one ! They haveelected four-fifths of the state house ofrepresentatives! They have elected allfour of the members of congress! Ken-nebec county, Mr. Blaine"s home, shows arepublican gain of over 1,600 since thelast election !

A more complete victory was never wonat the polls.

Oh, yes, Cleveland is "very populardown east, where he is known."

As goes Maine so goes the Union !

In looking over the Michigan Prohi-bitionist, the new paper started by Rev.John Russell, at first we thought it diffi-cult to tell whether it favored prohibitionor democracy. But a 'closer inspectionproves the problem an easy one, after all.It most assuredly favors democracy. Allof its diatribes are aimed against the re-publican party and republican candidates;all of its political quotations are fromdemocratic journals, all of its lies are inthe interest of the democratic party; andthe tenor of all its articles are bitteragainst the repubfcans and very soft onthe democrats. Among the men whom itquotes as authority is the "Hon." A. C"Mawxell, of Bay City—and any one who I were GenTknows Maxwell, knows what pure, cleansweet-breathed, temperate, honest authority he is. What an exquisite, what ateffecting scene it would be to see the RevJohn with his glasses over his nose, ancthe Hon. Andrew with his glasses untiehis nose, march up to the polls arm itarm and cast their ballots—both for thesame cause, though reading different!We pause to wipe our—nose.

Commenil us to the republican parly oMichigan for genuine stupidity. Two yeirsago the. party in this state promised to subinit the question of prohibition tothe peopleit had votes enough in the legislature to doit, but in obedience to the dictates of the liq-uor traffic it refused to do it. Now it lnismade precisely the same promise over againto the people. That won't work. Havingbroken the promise once it is reasonable topresume that it will do it agiiin ifii gets theopportunity. It ought to have tried somenew scheme. It was exceedingly stupid tomake precisely the same promise that itmade two years ago.—Coldwater .Sun.

andFor square up and down lying com-mend us to some of the opposition news-papers, and the Sun is not an exception.There were not enough republicans topass that measure, without the aid of thedemocrats. It takes a two-thirds vote tosubmit a constitutional amendment to thepeople, and the democratic party held inits hands the power to carry or defeat themeasure, and true to its instincts it de-feated it. And now its papers try tomake the black iccord of that party stillblacker by telling falsehoods about it.

The following, from the Pontiac Ga"z.ettc, tells a true story : "Two years agosome of the disgruntled Adrianitesfell intothe democratic trap, and defeated the elec-tion to congress of that grand statesmannnd orator, Hon. J. K. Boise of Hudsonand elected a man who was a free traderupon everything but wool, and only a pro-tectionist on that subject " because someo(/ my constituents raise wool." The re-publican convention, for the second dis-trict, met at Adrian, and on the second bal-lot nominated Capt. Edward 1*. Allen sowell known in our city and county as aneloquent and able speaker. This is asplendid nominat ion, suits all a r o u n d , andCapt. Ed. will represent the old secondin congress."

A recent issue of the Grand RapidsDemocrat has a display heading in blackfaced type: "A Mastodon Found!"Yes, the democratic party found it inErie county. It is of the Iiuffalo species,and is so very heavy that it is rapidlyknocking the wind out of that party tocarry it. The skeleton (in the familycloset) Is an enormous one.

The question naturally suggests itself :Has that "young lion of the Saginaw de-macracy," done any roaring over the Ver-mont and Maine elections ? They arellorr-ible Timothy, in the extreme. Butthe fact is the people are very particularyet as to who they trust with affairs ofslate.

There is still a possibility of the green-backers meeting and putting up a candi-date of their own for congress in this dis-trict. As one of them said Tuesday '• "IfCol. Eldredge is elected, how much bet-ter off will we be? Isn't it belter to standby your principles and put up a man ofour own ?"

The opposition will have to fight theirbattle for Cleveland without the aid ofany of the religious papers. They li.iveall "flopped over," and not only refuse tosupport him, but claim that the presidentof the United States should be a man ofpure morals. One whom any man wouldnot feel afraid to invite to his home andassociate with his family.

ally obtained In her institutions of learn-ing, l ie said tlic learned professorstaught the theory ot government from ;iUritisli standpoint, and the textbooks fur-nished were usually free trade in theory.But when we come to the Industries ofour country he believed that they belong-ed to this country; that Americanism oughtto belong to America, and that her greatinterests should be protected. It wasfrom the start given the industries by thepolicy introduced by Abraham Lincolnthat had caused this country to attain thewonderful prosperity it had so long en-joyed. The old party of free trade hadtried its hand at running the governmentyears previous to that administration, andit brouglit the country nearly to the vergeof starvation. From that time to thepresent hour there have been happyhomes tilled with plenty, good clothes forall the family, and general content andprosperity. The republican party by itsrecord invites all to the highest plane ofcitizenship, and stands by a policy thatbenefits the entire people alike. Mr.Logan closed by paying a glowing trib-ute to the republican standard bearer andasked the people to east their votes forone of the grandest Statesmen Americaever produced, the Hon. James G. Blaine,of Maine.

The speech was frequently interruptedwith applause, and at its close three rous-ing cheers were given for Blaine andLogan.

Senator Palmer once more stepped for-ward and introduced the next governordl .Michigan, Gen. Ii. A. Alger, and saidthat lie hoped at the close of the General'sremarks the band would strike up "Hailtiie Chief who in triumph advances," forAlger was advancing. .

Gen. Alger then came forward andthanked the people for coming out in suchnumbers to greet Gen. Logan. By wayof iiDOlogy tor a very hoarse voice lie re-marked that Gen. Logan and himself hadbeen out nights recently, and he thoughtMr. Logan stood the strain better than hedid. He said that as he should be withthe people of Ann Arbor in a short timethat he would then talk to them in re-spect to the political issues, and thereforesimply thanked them again for theirpresence there and for the respectand enthusiasm shown General Logan.

The occasion was enlivened with musicby the Ann Arbor City band and also bythe McGlbeny family band, both of whichmade excellent music, very pleasant tothe oar.

The impression (Jen. Logan made wasvery favorable indeed. Nearly everyonethought the villainous campaign picturesof him weie a deception and a libel, andshould all be burned up, for "BlackJack" is a line looking man.

In the special car containing the partyere Gen. Russell A. Alger, Senator

Thos. W. Palmer, Father Chas. O'Keilley,Col. H. M. Duffield, Recorder Swiftand Elder Frank Blades, of Detroit; Hon.E. S. Lacey and Judge Philip Van Zile,of Charlotte, and others. Hon. A. J.Sawyer, of this city, accompanied the par-ty to Jackson.

The train stopped at Dexter, whereseveral hundred people had gathered andthe General appeared aud made a few re-marks.

At Chelsea about 1,500 people had gath-ered, aud the train was also stopped, anda brief speech was made to the people.A great deal of enthusiasm was main-tained all along the line.

It Is true that a certain Methodist clergy-man in tins district has been employed tocanvass the district and attempt to persuadei'nionisls to cut Chas. Mosher and vote forCapt. Allen for congress ? Methodist mini -leis, and all other ministers too, should voteas their conviction o( duty dictates. That isall riijht. Hut when a Methodist minister orany oilier minister, hires himself out for payto travel about among the members of hischurch, and use his personal influence toWheedle honest voters into votingagainst their convictions, lie puts himselfwithout the pale ot honorable men, and Il-lustrates the degraded condition into whichpolitics have fallen.—Tecumseh Herald.

How easy it is to see the mote in thybrother's eye. How natural to criticiseyour opponents. But how absurd theabove is. The gentleman referred to isemployed by his congregation to performcertain work, we presume, and the Heraldbrings forward nothing to show that thatwork is not well performed. His extratime belongs to himself. He has a per-fect right to do what he chooses with itIf he has a friend he believes to be honor-able and honest, running for an oflice, helias as much right to aid him by voice andInfluence as the Herald editor has to aidhis friends. Because a man is a ministerof the gospel is no reason why he shouldbe denied rights accorded to every otheriltizen of the United States. A ministerteas the same right to aid his friends, ex-press bis views, and cast his vote that anyman has.

It is not In good taste for a minister topreach politics from the pulpit, or holdpolitical meetings on Sunday, or negrct[his duties to the detriment of his congre-ation, and the brother complained of

ibove, doesn't appear to have done that.simply because he choose to use his in-llucnce privately to aid his friend Capt.Allen, the Herald loses its temper andibuses him, There seems to be no faultfound with those who support Mr. El-dricb or those who support Mr. Mosher,ind go about influencing members of theirlongregutlons to vote against their con-victions. As for being "hired," you mightlerhaps with equal truth accuse theHerald of being hired to support the can-lldatea ii chooses to favor.

The town woke op early yesterdaymorning, or a portion of the people inthe town, rather. There was hurrying toand fro, and gathering tears of distress,aud checks all pale, and noses red, andeyes that bespoke excitement and intenseinterest in the events of the day. Forthere were to he three conventions thatday, all called at the same hour. Firstand foremost came the county conventionof the democratic party, and in that cen-tered the hopes and fears of a majority ofthe multitude, and over which the wrang-ling and jangling, and pulling and haul-ing, and chin-chin-chining of weeks hadhad been expended.

Next came the democratic district con-vention, to nominate a candidate for thelegislature in the first district. The thirdgreat event was the supposed to be dem-ocratic annex, commonly called the green-back party, which came to act as bridethat day.

THE COl'XTY CONVENTION.

This Important body met in the courtroom at 11 o'clock, and was called toorder by E. B. Norris, of Manchesterchairman of the county executive com »mittee, who called Chas. R. Whitman, ofYpsilanti, to the chair. Frank Joslin. ofYpsilanti, was elected secretary. (Asuspicion here gained credence that Ypsi-lanti was to be put off with the honors ofthe convention.)

The following committees were thenappointed : On permanent organization—J. S. Gorman, of Lyndon; J. F. Schuh,of Ann Arbor; and Jacob Knapp. OIFreedom. On credentials—Walter H,Dancer, of Lima: Thos. Kearney, Jr., otNorthfield : and John Gillen, of Saline.Com. to confer with the g. b. bride—Marcus Cook, Scio; Gotleib Luick, AnnArbor; F. J. Sway lie, Ypsilanti; LeopoldBlaess, Lodi; J. Divine, Sen , Webster.

An adjournment was then taken to l).jo'clock p. in.

It was plump 2 o'clock before the dele-gates were in their seats again. Thecommittee on order of business reportedthe order of nominations and also recom-mended that delegates present the namesof candidates for oflice without makingany speech, also that the chairappoint a committee of five whose duty itshould be to report the names of ievengentlemen who should act as a countycommittee for the ensuing two years. Allof which was adopted.

The committee on conference with thegreenbackcrs reported that that bodywould fuse on coudition that they be f;iv-eu register of deeds and representative inthe first district. This was rejected by anearly unanimous vote of the convention.One speaker thought the G. B.'saltogeth-er too modest, considering the democratspolled 17 votes to their one.

During this time the committee of rivereported the following county committee:

Chas H. Manly, Ann Arbor, chairman.David Or. Kose, of Sharon.V. J. Swaine, of Ypsilanti.John V. N. Gregory, of Lima.Leopold Blaess, of Lodi.J. Gfillen, ofSaliue.John W. Nanry, of Superior.Then the convention struck a snag.

There being two set of delegates report-ed from Dexter township. The contest-ing delegates were present, and madesuch a good showing for their side thatthe convention was at a dead loss to knowwhat to do. Finally, after some fiercespeeches pro and con, the adroitness ofChairman Whitman secured a way out ofthe tangle by having a commmittee ofthree appointed to boil down the two setsof delegates into one, which they did.

After this another ripple was raised bya delegate kicking against the gag rulethe convention had adopted in shuttingoff speeches in the introduction of candi-dates, and after much discussion that partof the proceedings was reconsidered andnominating speeches limited to five min-utes each. This action opened up theavenue of fun the reporters feared waslost to them and the spectators. On mo-tion the chair appointed as tellers StephenMerrithew, Sharon ; Win. Miller,of AnnArbor; and Barney Kirk, of Ypsilanti.

Senator—Business then opened tip inearnest. Marcus Cook, of Scio, set theball rolling by presenting the name ofHon. Chas. S. Gregory, of the same town-ship, in a very confident manner. J. J.Parshall, of Ann Arbor town followed,speaking in warm terms of DensmoreCramer, who was seconded by MalcomMcDougall, of Bridgewater, who in giv-ing the early history of Mr. Cramer,said he had known him from a poor boyand had seen him grow every year thelength of a corn stalk. That he was aman who had risen by hard and persis-tent industry, and everything he had inthe world had been made by his own toil.Dr. V. C. Vauguan seconded the nomina-tion of Mr. Gregory.

A ballot was then taken resulting,Chas. S. Gregory 47, D. Cramer G4, andMr. Cramer declared nominated.

Judge of Probate.—Mr. McDougall be-ing so successful at first, tried it again,andpresented the name of Hon. VV. D. Har-riman, at the time giving the party a digon its civil service reforms professions.John W. Nanry approved of the sameaud said that the only men who foundfault with Mr. Harriman were the law-yers. J. B. VanAtta said ditto to all ofit. Walter II. Dancer, of Lima, disa-greed. He believed that President Cleve-land would want him (Harriman) for ahigher position after March M. liewanted to see Geo. W. Turnbull, of Chel-sea, in the probate oflieo, and assertedthat four years ago Mr. Harriman hadagreed to draw off, and not stand In theway this time, and considered his actioniu coming forward again not honorable-

Jas. S. Gorman, of Lyndon, then wokeup the echoes of the old court house in asurprising manner. He said that at thelast and largest caucus ever held in histownship a resolution was passed never tosupport any man for a third term. Hethen refreshed the memory of the con-vention in respect to the lamented PeterTuite, and wanted to know of this con-vention if they would allow Mr. Harri-nian to accomplish what Mr. Tuite couldnot. The party had established the pre-cedent, and the third term business willnever go down the throats of the peopleof the county. Other and more bitterthings he said, also. lie was followed byM. J. Lehman, [of Chelsea, in a simila.istrain, who threatened that while hewould be loyal to the ticket himself, un-less Mr. Turnbull was nominated hecouldn't answer for what the disappoint-ed democrats of the western part of thecounty would do. He also protested thathis candidate was not a prohibitionist,but a man in whom the saloon keeperscould confide. In his earnestness hemade a slip of the tongue, and addressedthe convention as "gentlemen of the jury,"which greatly pleated .John W. Nanrywho had made the remark about the law-yers. Dr. Vaughan came to the rescue ofJudge Harriman, and thought that-thereason why he had held the olllce so long

was the rery reason why hr. should -tillhold it. He considered Mr. Harrimanloo shrewd to be imposed upon and toolionest to become a party to any fraud ortrickery. The ballot, told the story :Harriman, <>•'!; Turnbull, 45.

S/irri/r. The numerous candidates forthis oflice made the strife terrific. Thename of T. McKune, of Chelsea, waspresented by M. J. Lehman, seconded byI). (J. Rose, of Sharon. Thos. Kearney,Jr., of Northfield, asked in the name ofthe town which had not asked or had athing for 2~> years, for the nomination ofWin. Walsh. D. Cramer, though not amember of the convention, presented thename of Patrick O'Henrn, of Ann Ar-bor. Chas. Ii. Whitman mule an elo-quent plea for his friend Frank P. Bo-gardus, and the eastern part of the counly. J!. F Watt?, presented the name ofThos. F. Leonard. Dr. McLachlan. ofYork, desired the nomination of JosephGauntlett, of Milan.

In county taxes thesame gentleman estimates that the peoplewill have to pay about $8,000 less thanlast year, basing his estimate partially onthe fact that there was on the 1st day ofSept. '84, $18,42G.36 in the treasury,against $13,045.05 the year previous, adillerence of about $5,000. The savingto the county from the breaking up ofthe tramp business is quite an amountalso, aud taking all together the taxeswill be fully one-third less than last year.At the present price of wheat farmers areglad ; and at the present business out-look merchants and other business menare glad ; and attbfi present salaries, la-boring men are glad. Consequentlynearly every one who pays taxes is glad.Light taxes and full poe.ketbooks willpaint any country in roseate hues. \\ ecannot have too much lightness ot theone and heaviness of the other for generalrejoicing. _ _ _ _ _ ^ _ _ _

In relation to the death of Mrs. Tap-pan the Detroit FreePress has the follow-ing account of her life :

Mrs. Julia Livingston Tappan, widow ofthe late Dr. Tappau. died atVevey, In Switz-eilaud, August 21st last, at the age of 78 years."Jin- had been a long and patieat sufferer, anddeath lor more than one reasou, cannot havebeeu other than a glad relief to her from theburdens of a world wherein she had noblyand entirely fulfilled tier mission.

Mrs. Tappan was a member of the cele-brated Livingston family of New York, atact which Is significant mainly as a con-tinuation of the notion that blood tells. HerLivingston blood was specially indicated bythe great native strength and purity of acharacter that was also iu the highest de-gree embellished by culture. Indeed thiscountry has produced few women In whomwere united so many notable virtues, to saynothing of those elegant accomplishments ofwhich she was possessed. Her life was sin-gularly beautiful in the dearer domestic senseas well as in the more brilliant semi-publicatmosphere in which she moved lor manyyears. Her station was one of much respon-sibility. How she filled it and adornedit—adapting herself with exquisite tact to itaconstant requirements, and always givingforth the strengthening breath of sympathywith her distinguished husband's high aims—is known of all the world. Her devotion tohim was absolute. She was more to him thanhis right hand in all his undertakings; andthat is why all who knew and loved the goodDoctor, also loved her, no matter whethershe was personally known to them or not.Hers was also the devotedness of affection,and from the hour of her beloved's death shebegan perceptibly to droop. A kind of cheer-fulness—born of hope in a reunion not faraway—hovered about her and made the clos-ing year of her life a pathetic benediction onall who held her dear. Her chiefest pleasureand sweetest consolation were gained fromconversations with persons who had knownthe Doctor, especially those who clusteredaround him at the University of Michiganand who, during all the remainder of his life,were perhaps ottenest and pleasantest In bisthoughts. Now both these gentle ones aregone They lie side by side In the midst ofloveliness that seems to have been created ofnature's most prodigal mood. It was herdearest wish so to rest. The peace thatpusseth understanding Is upon th m and willabide with them forever.

THE LIQUOR QUESTION.

A Few Statistics and a Few RemarksThereon.

The <iuesliou of the organization of aprohibition, party and the bitter attackmade by the extreme prohibitionists onthe present tax law, leads one to study upthe figures a little.

In the first place there has been paidinto the county treasury the sum of $21,-662.07 since the first day of May last, bysaloon keepers In the county of Washtenaw, as a tax upon their business.

These licenses, as they are called, num-ber 59 full licenses, 20 wine and beer li-censes, and y breweries. They are divided as follows : Ann Arbor has 2S fulllicenses, 7 wine and beer, [and 2 brewer,ies; Ypsilanti has 12 full licenses, 2 wineand beer and 1 brewery: Manchester, 7full licenses, 1 wine and beer; Dexterand Chelsea each 4 full licenses and 1wine and beer; Milan, 1 full license, 1wine and beer; Saline 1 full license, 1wine and beer; ..Milan (York township)1 full license, 2 wine aud beer; Bridge-water, 1 of each; Lodi, 1 full license;Lima, 1 wine and 1 beer; Scio, 1 wine andbeer; Freedom 1 wine and beer. A fulllicense calls for $H00 per year; wine andbeer calls for $200 per year; and brewerylicense fCj for the first 1,000 barrels and$10 for each additional 100 barrels.Which amounts must be all paid in fullat the beginning of the year, May 1st.No parts of the year's license can be paidexcept where a man opens a new place ofbusiness after May 1st, in which case hecan pay for the remainder of the yeanpro rata.

This money is paid to the countytreasurer, and is by him turned over tothe various city or village corporations ortownships in which the saloons are located.

The amounts so turned over in thiscounty the present year, foot up: AnnArbor, $9,005; Ypsilanti, $3,890; Man-chester, $2,300; Chelsea, $1,400; Dexter,$1,400; Milan, $700; Saline, $667.07;Bridgewater, $500; Lodi, $300; Lima,Scio and Freedom each $200.

The above are the figures for this coun-ty. Prohibitionists and anti-prohibition-ists are welcome to use them as theyplease.

One thing is evident, there are less sa-loons in the county of Washtenaw, byone-third than when the law went intoeffect. If a tax of $300 can be levied andcollected on the business, one of $500can be levied and collected also. If a taxof $300 reduced the number of placesone-third a tax of $500 ought to reducethem one-half. Every place .closed up isa gain for the temperance cause, and alessening of temptation for the youthsof the county. The morals of the peo-ple increase as the saloons decrease. Apublic sentiment could in this manner bebuilt up that would of itself prohibit thefurther growth of the liquor business.Let licenses be so drawn that when liquoris sold to minors, or people to whom itought not to be sold that the same wi'l berevoked, and make it the business of someofficer to enforce the law, with sufficientpenalties attached for neglecting suchduty, and you will have the liquor trafficwell In hand. The enforcing of the lawshould not be left to the prosecuting at-torney as at present, however, but anofficer should be created for that especialpurpose, with powers similar to those ofthe United States excise officers.

In this way many people believe thecountry can be educated up to the millen-ium—prohibition.

But this is a matter of opinion only,and what one man thinks is just as goodas what another man thinks, providinghis organs of thinking are as good.

The gentlemen who have enlisted In thework of defeating the election of Capt. Allen"or congress, by voting for Mosher, wouldsave themselves much trouble and some ex-pense perhaps by going right across lots andvotln« for E dredge. So far as any principle^concerned the one course is just as defen-sible as the other. Allen or Eldredge wllrepresent this district In congress the nexttwo vears and the question for each voter tolooides which of the two is the better man?o send? Morally and politically men areresponsible for the consequences ol their ac-tions.

Truer words than the above from theAdrian Times were never uttered eitherhy a newspaper man or any one else.The prohibitionists are simply trying toperform the old feat of "biting their noseoff to spite their face."

BACH & ABEL'S COLUMN.

ItACH A AIIEL.

We have been asked a number of timeslately if we were the sole agents for theCelebrated Pearl Shirt in Ann Arbor. Itseems that there are some parties In townwho are selling an inferior Shirt for onedollar and claim that it is the Pearl. Forthe benefit of those who have bought thePearl and also those who expect to thenext time they want Shirts, we wouldsay that the Pearl Shirt cannot be boughtin any otlier house In Ann Arbor, butours.

We are not surprised that other mer-chants try to sell their Shirts for the Pearl,as this Shirt without doubt is the best uulaundried shirt in America to-day retailedat one dollar. We have sold this shirtfor six years, selling on an average of 000doz. per year and we have yet to hear ofa single person who was dissatisfied withthe Pearl Shirt in any way, shape or man-ner. We claim that the Pearl Shirt ex-cells all other shirts in quality, workman-ship and fit.

BACH & ABEL.We have decided this week to give you

a small benefit in Underwear. Underwearis low, but not so low as we shall sell itbeginning to-day. We cannot give allof the particulars. Wnile we write theunderwear is being displayed. We knowwhat it cost. We know how little it isgoing to bring.

First comes a very handsome ladies'vestin all sizes, half regular seams at 40 c.Such underwear is not made for any suchmoney.

Next comes a ladies' vest finished withsilk around the neck, pearl buttons, halfregulars, all sizes at 50c.

This vest without doubt is the cheapestever seen in Ann Arbor at the price.

Ladies' vests at 00, 75, SO, ^1.00 and$1.25 are equally cheap.

We have hastily given you the earliestimperfect news (true as fir as it goes) ofunderwear. There are others. Weshall turn to the subject again. Thequantities to be sold at these prices arenot so large that you can afford to wait.
