The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1874-12-25

Something over year ago one OF the then
proprietors of the Detroit Advertiser and Tri-
bune made an attempt to get entire control OF
that paper by securing majority of the STOCK
but failed, and the little unpleasantness that
ensued made it desirable for him to retire from
the editorial corps, which he did. and straight
way started the Evening News. This latter
paper now comes out and demands that the
Legislature pass law requiring all newspapers
to verify their circulation by affidavit, to be
posted in some public place. 1t gives as a
reason for this that the Detroit papers have
been cheating the advertising public by lying
about their circulation. If this is so, they
should be regulated by law.
Advertisers can examine our circulation to
their hearts content.

From the bitter cup that's given,
We should not shrink
Since the mandate is from Heaven,

Sleep, dear Nettie, kind and tender,
To friendships true,
While with feeling hearts we render
This tribute due.

Shall light the tomb,
Beautiful will be thy waking.

No burial train
Crowned with gems celestial, glowing
