, Vote !! Vote!! Vote i!

The head Of this article is not an invi-
tation to every man to vote three timss, but
an invitation to erery voter to vote once.
Since the war has closed, party lines have
not been drawn quite as close as when the
county was in danger nearly as much from
copperheads and rebel sympatizers at the
north. as from armed rebels at the south;
and although we still believe in keeping up
party organizations, we think the lines
need not be marked with the distinctness
which was formerly SO necessary. There
will probably be no party nominations
made for the respective town offices, in
ia is town this year; but persons taking
an interest in the town election, without
distinction Of party, will doubtless pre-
pare tickets. and bring up candidates for
the acceptance OF rejection of the people.
At the coming election, which will be held
on Tuesday next, April Sd, there are to be
elected a Chairman Of the Board Of Super
visors, and two Supervisors, one Treasur--l
er, one Clerk, two Assessors, two and
probably three justices Of the Peace, three
Constables. and Road Overseer for each
road district. The electionispFobably of but
little Importance to the country at large,
but it is of great Importance to the people
of this town and every town in the county;
therefore, LET every voter appear at the
polls, sometime between the hours of 9
O'Clock a. m. and sundown, and deposit
his ballot for. the candidates Of his choice.

MgDrcAL USE OF SALr.-The Ned
zeal World says that in many cases of
disordered stomach, a tablespoonful of
salt is certain cure. In a violent in
ternal pain termed collie, teaspoon
full of salt dissolved in pint Of water,
taken as soon as possible, with short
nap Immediately after, is one of the
most effectual and speedy remedies
known. The same will relieve per-
son who seems almost. dead from a
heavy fall. In an apoplectic fit no
time should be lost in pouring down
salt water, if sufficient sensibility re-
main to allow of swallowing; if not,
the head must be sponged with colo
water until the senses return, when
salt will completely restore the patient
from the lethargy. In fit, the feet
should be placed in warm water with
mustard added, and the legs briskly
rubbed all the bandages removed
from the neck, and a cool aperient
procured, if possible. In ease of se-
we're bleeding at the lungs, when other
remedies failed, DR.. Rush found that
two tcaspoonfuls of salt stayed the
blood.

Who Sustained the Government P

There is no one thing more impu-
dent or dishonest than the assumption
of the radical leaders that they alone
upheld the Government during the
late civil war. The fact is precisely
the reverse. The policy of these men
not only did not uphold the govern
ment, but embarrassed its action and
prolonged the war at cost of mill
ions of money and hundreds Of thou
sands of lives. The war could have
been closed in 1862 by the defeat of
the rebel army in Virginia and the
capture Of Richmond, had it not been
for the scheming and treachery of the
radical leaders at Washington and
elsewhere. They were determined
teat it should never be closed under
the military leadership of man they
could not use to promote their party
ends.
But when Lincoln appealed to the
country for money with which to wage
the war successfully, who came for

the negro equality policy of the radi-
Gals inand out of Congress? Scarcely

Inspection of Michigan Salt.

L. ! ~ 4
The following sensible article is
from the Detroit Commercial Ads~tiscr,
and but does simple justice to DR.. s.
s. GARRIdUEs, who is not only "prac-
tical chemist in the common accepta-
ton of the term, but gentleman of
thorough cultivation and an uncom-
monty high order of ability in this
branch of science. No better selec-
ton for the position could have been
made, and we are certain all who
know the Doctor have the utmost con-
fidence in his ability, integrity and
judgment:
We are gratified to learn that the
salt committe of the Board of Trade
of East Saginaw have appointed a
salt inspector for such individuals and
companies as choose to avail them
selves of the arrangement. DR.. s. s.
Garrigues, a practical chemist, and
abundantly qualified to discharge the
duties of the position, has been ap-
pointed to that post.
We learn that most Of the salt
manufacturers Of the Saginaw Valley
are disposed to enter into the arrange
ment, yet there are a few VINO affect
to be unable to perceive the advanta-
ges, and persist in Withholding their
countenances from any inspection
whatever. AS general thing, they
are manufacturers who have palmed
off upon the market a large amount
of worthless trash that is not fit for
use, and which being found of very
inferior quality, has brought discredit
upon the entire salt interests Of the
State. There is no good reason why
the salt Of Michigan should not come
up to a uniform high standard, and
equal reputation to that of any other
that is offered in the market. The
thorough system of inspection adopted
at the Onondaga works in New York,
affords guarntee that the article is
of good merchantable quality, and
for that reason it invariably COM
mands from 10 to 15c per barrel more
in the markets of Detroit, Chicago
and Milwaukee than the Saginaw
salt. 1t is well understood that some
of the firms in Saginaw manufacture
very superior article of salt, and
consumers who are familiar with the
brands do not hesitate to give it a
preference over all other salt in tho
market; but unfortunately a good
deal of Saginaw salt in the market
has been been found impure, and has
been the occasion of considerable loss
to packers of meat and fish. 1t is this
kind of salt that has brought dis
credit upon Saginaw manufacture,
and which lessons its value in the
market everywhere. Nothing will
raise the price Of Saginaw salt, and
enable its manufacturers to compete
with the salt districts of the country
so effectually, as thorough and care
full inspection. Let it once be brought
up to a uniform standard, and be es-
tablished as an unexceptionable mer-
chantable article, and the Saginaw
Valley can compete with the world in
supplying the great western market.
Until manufacturers generally enter
into the inspection arrangement, we
trust consumers will exercise sound
discretion in their purchases. Now
that a system of inspection has been
initiated, we would advise dealers not
to purchase single barrel that has
not the inspection brand distinctly
marked unon it.

HANDLING BAGGAGE.-At railway
stations there is often rough and
careless style of handling trunks and
other articles of personal baggage,
that is altogether inexcusable. BY
the checking system, which is admira-
bly, carried out on our railroads, the
traveller is released from all apprehen-
sion Of losing shis baggage. But in
what condition it will be restored to
his hands, he must wait, trustfully and
hopefully, to ascertain. And if his
his new trunk has a rent or two in its
covering, or corner or two turned in
wards, he has no redress for the dam
nge done to it. 1t is said that bag
gage is more. rudely handled by por-
tiers in this country than in any other.
Men whose daily business consists in
handling baggage, have undoubtedly
hard work to do. But they get pay
for it as such, and they should exer-
else more patience and care to avoid
the danger which is unavoidable, if
trunks are pitched and tossed about
like blocks of wood. Not only the
packages themselves, but their con-
tents, are often injured in this way
1t is matter for baggage-masters and
superintendents of transportation to
rectity.-Erchange
We doubt if there be one in oil the
list of wayfarers among our proverbi-
ally restless people, who will not
keenly feel the truth of the above
paragraph, and as keenly realize the
necessity for reform in the Internal
mode of handling" as is modestly
termed the barbarous throwing about
