appeared to be well attended by the NJ. DIS. o
the County. We noticed that DIR. woodmal
and Barney Dyckman OF South Haven were OF
hand, but we don't quite see the connection o
Barney with the association.
On Monday last the odd Fellows held cele
bration at Michigan City to commemorate tn,
55th anniversary OF the order and on Teusda,
the Fraternity IN our neighbonng village OF
Decatur celebrated bya grand parade in the
afternoon and dance in the evening The
Paw Paw Cornet Band discoursed the musc
for the occasion.
The school question seems to flag. We had
hoped TO have reply to Mr.. Earle's articles
The que stion Is one having two sides, and we
hope it will be thoroughly discussed. The
people are all interested aud the columns of
this paper are open to says" on this school
question. Gentlemen forward your opinions.
Let Us have more light on this matter.
Somebody told us the other day that at our
neighboring village Of Lawrence man was
killed, last Saturday, by the running away OF
his team. On inquiry we learned that horse,
which was being driven by Perry Canoll, be-
came refractory and kicked himself loose from
the wagon to which he was hltched. and in tire
melee Perry received one Of the vigorous kicks
on his knee. He is now doing well.
Thirty-nine votes were given in the L. :.
Senate in favor Of the Currency or as it was
called the imitation. act, vetoed BY the Presi-
dent. Of these the fifteen old slave States
FINISHED twenty-one and TWENTY-FIVE Northern
States furnished but nineteen. There we're
thirty-three votes against the measure when it
passed the Senate. only four Of which were
from the old slave States, while the Northern
States furnished twenty-nne. There is some
thing significant in this.
There is nothing 80 very strange about Arthur
Brown having vision, during the time he was
making his argument for new trial in the
Matteson forgery case, in which he saw "a lot
Of old women" attending the trial and who
we're continually Kissing and ready to hoo,,' or
that the good people Of this county appeared
TO him to be " semi-savages and ANIMALS" see
ing that soon after the trial Of the case he went
INTO the vision business in which all manner
Of creeping and Kissing reptiles and serpents
gave him infinite trouble by taking possession
Of his boots and otherwise annoying him.
The season Is now arriving for farmers to
provide themselves with such tools and imple-
ments as are needed to carry on their business,
DR. to take the place Of old ones. To all such
we would say buy OF the man who manufactures
the article at home. and never buy an article OF
foreign manufacture when the same can be OBJ
tanned Of mechanic IN your vicinity. By
adopting this course you will aid in building up
and sustaining home industries and thereby
creating home market for all the smaller agri-
cultural products. II you want pillow buy it
Of some one who makes it in your own imme-
date vicinity. The money paid will be spent
among you but il your pillow or other tool is
made IN Mshawaka or South Bend the money
you pay will go there to help build up town
and manufactures remote from you, while every
dollar paid to manufacturer at home will go
10 help promote your own material interests.
by enhancing valnes OF all property in the
on should remember that Paw Paw turns
out just as good Flows, Cultivators, Harrows,
Wagons, Harness, etc., as can be produced
elsewhere. When you ne, any tool let your
first inquiry be. Is it made my vicinity and
II it L.. buy OF the man who makes it, and give
all agents who sell imported articles the go-by.
sustain your own manufacturers.
in the course Of his argument OH the motion
FOR new trial IN the Matteson forgery case.
Mr. Seyerens took occasion to say substantially:
- Nothing is SO unreasoning 80 blind and
so brutal as the prejudice OF mob. II was
foreordained by the unreasoning, blind and
bigoted prejudice OF this community that the
should be convicted. Had fifty
angels from Heaven sworn that they saw Morris
sign that mortgage. Tie jury would have con-
yicted them OF perjury. The verdict was an
outrage on justice. and the result was the con-
victlon OF man whom l firmly believe, from
the evidence in the case, was as innocent OF
the crime with which he stands charged as | am.
The jury had no regard for the Evidence, and
tOUHd 1cbdt they kNeic TO b. a lie. They were
determined to convict, right CT wrong There
was no more justice in them than in pdck Of
dtHOHS.'
This extract should be cut out and posted in
a conspicuous place, to be constant reminder
to YOU OF the estimate in which Kalamazoo
man holds you. We had. and the people had
looked for better things o: Mr.. Severens. We
suggest that the people should honor their own
Prophets more andnot 90 abroad 80 frequently
for counsel.
