The Lake County star. [volume] (Chase, Mich.) 1873-current, 1875-05-27

Disguised with the organ, SO as to
forbid its entering his house, his
vote and influence as a Supervisor
must be held, if at all possible; so,
nurse staightway prepares "a pail Of
whitewash, and in his issue of the
22d inst, too sceeks later; not the
one Immediately following the pub
LEGATION of the contemplate item
spreads it on in this style:
SIN a recent Issue of the Herald
appeared an article which was TO-
tally uncallcd for; regarding Mr..
Albert Allen refusing to continue
taking the<Herald. Mr.. Allen has
settled in full for our paper, and had
we been at home the item would
certainly'nevcr had appeared. We
therefore make due apology, trust
ing Mr.. Allen will discard any feel
ings of enmity he may have toward
us. II is not oar intention to fnd
fault vih any person for not desir-
ing to patronize as, and regret very
much that through our employees
we are called upon to pen these
lines"
That word "totally," of course,
includes the sentence referring to
the STAR. We did not deem nurse
capable of Seating his own words"
so handsomely We certainly ac-
cept the apology, and trust Mr..
Allen may do the same-in fact,
we've n notion to file his acceptance
herewith. If he don't come around
all right now, nurse may make up
his mind that his whitewash is "too
thin," and won't stick. Reading
the sentence above quoted and ital-
icized by us-reminds us of the
following which appeared in the or
gan of Jan. 10Th, after a certain
cx-county official had ordered his
copy of the organ discontinued:
"Why is it that when man gets
disappointed in securing Office, he
seeks his sweetest revenge through
stopping his county paper?"
More boys work. What pity
to see nurse trying to run news
paper and at the same time secure
a fat salary from the government,
and then for those employees" to
spoil half of it. How would it do
to discharge the boys and take the
deacon on trial again? If he ever
gets into another scrapc like the
one at the battle of the county seat,
then turn him Loose for good.

The Lake County STAR has en-
tered upon its third volume. No
paper in Northern Michigan has
improved more than the STAR, since
its first issue. Osceola Outline.
If we mistake not, considerable
of change for the better has come
over the Outline since it started as
the pioneer paper Of Osceola coun-
ty; especially since its veteran ed
itor and publisher founded the STAR.

says that if we are not responsible,
for the opinions of our correspon
dents, said correspondents them
selves must be. We think so, too
He seems inclined to think all com
munications should 60 into the pa
per precisely as written, of course
allowing correction of grammatica
or other plain errors. AS there
seems to be an indistinct idea in thu
minds of many regarding the rela
tions sustained by newspaper pub
Usher towards anonymous commu
nications, we embrace this chance
of giving our views. The publisher
is responsible for everything pub.
lished in his paper. An article
published over a fictitious name
leaves the publisher alone response.
BILE; and where given over the true
name of the author, makes the pub
Usher Jointly responsible. fla wri-
ter signs his true name, he has a
right to expect that his article, il
published at all, will be published
Just as it was written. If he signs
a fictitious name, he has no right,
strictly speaking, to govern its pub
LEGATION in any manner.
We confess that we have some
times assumed the too common habit
of inserting an editorial introduce
ton to communications, disclaiming
any responsibility for opinions, &C.,
but some time ago concluded not
to further render ourselves ridicu-
lous by such waste of time and
space. We do not claim to know
all there is to be learned about news
paper management mo doubt there
are many who never have been in
side of a printing Office more than
a half dozen times in their lives,
ready to tell us just how the thing
is done), but know we have obtained
knowledge of a fen points during
the years we have worked ut the
printing business.
Few seem to realize the unman-
illness of a personal attack under
cover of n fictitious name. Those
who read both the STAR and the
sheet published at Chase, have seen
our personal experience in this re-
spcct. Our discussion of all mat
tiers has ever been in the shape of
editorials. All knew where they
came from. If there was any re-
ply to be made to our articles, fair
ness and decency demanded it
should have been made openly.
Instead of that, we have been as
sailed, from time to time, by the
grosscst kind of personal abuse and
SANDER, all by creatures who had
not the manlincss to fight under
their own colOrs. "Doesticks," of
Nirvana, is about as rabid a speci-
men of the class we allude to, as
We can point to in this locality.
And we are not the only object of
his cowardly tongue, as was OBJ
served by the readers of the sheet
published at Chase last week. We
do not wish to be understood as
placing spectator" among the class
of writer's here alluded to, for we
fully believe his motive was a good
one, when he penned his article;
but we must consider him as having
stepped without the bounds of pro-
priety.
Any article sent to us for publ
cation, signed by the author, will
be rejected or published as written.
1t is useless for anyone to ask us to
treat articles sent us for publication,
and signed by fictitious names, 9th
crwise than as matter to be put in
such shape as ourselves see fit. 1t
may appear in the paper according
to original copy. 1t may not.

VIZ understand that Chase wants
to be "sct Off into Osccola county,
but that the prospects are that Os-
ccola will have nothing to do with
the troublesome clique. There's
no use talking about annexation
business! The clique must estab-
lish a little empire of its own; with
Foster as King, Towncr, prime min
lister, Warner, jester; McClclland,
commandcr-in-chicf of the army,
EARNED with sticks of wood); Big
bee, second in command; Nurse, to
trot around the hospital; Forman,
foreign ambassador and minister
plcnipotcntiary Ito any court the
clique may order him); and "Doe-
sticks" manager of the scmi-annual
Bng-a-boo, to be printed on a bass
wood shaving, 6x9-cut from that
Tonwood club which grew upon the
plains(D.
A Chinese wall should be built
around the domain, with a County
Seat in each corner; but the county
property-espccially the safe
should be ut least two miles from
the actual County Seat, and the
business should also, be transacted
at the safe and not at the County
Seat-as some unlcarncd "ruffians'
would have it. This plan is correct,
as it would be in accordance with
Chase tactics (Bigbee did know how
the thing was done once-he's for
gotten now); it would suit the con-
veniencc of the proprictors of the
concerns, and would render the
property, by reason OF lts DclnS IN
land-more secure from terrible in
vasions,against which sticks of wood,
chiscls, iron bars, &C., (wcapons
used by the "unarmed citizens" had
proved to be of no avail. Yes, set
up Kingdom! This idea of the
people ruling their own affairs, is a
sham and a humbug! Each founder
of the kingdom set up county safe
of his own, mount it, close his eyes,
and sing solcmnly and grimly:
'Tm monarch of all survey;
My right, I'm bound none shall dis
pute-
IF they do-wcll-those 'unarmed
citizens will make another riot"

WnITNEY's MUSICAL GUEST for
May, is upon our table, and merits
more than passing mention. The
musical story by Chas. Barnard
grows more interesting, but not
more readable; and Mr.. Whitney's
"Stray Leaves" from in and about
Venice, will attract every reader.
The editorial and news departments
are fuller than usual, and the Sc
lections arc piquant and instructive.
The Guest for May contains eleven
pages of choice music, comprising
five instrumental and vocal pieces,
among which "Thc Beautiful By
and By" (vocal0 "Fantasia," for
the organ, by w. Hewitt, and the
selections from the new "Crown of
Life" are especially meritorious.
The Guest is published at $1.10 n

How deeply the TELEGRAPH is indebted
to its contemporary, the Columbia Herald,
our readers could not possibly understand,
without perusing the Herald's compli-
mentary notice of our efforts, which we
hero append with grateful acknowledge
ments to our esteemed BROTHER coupled
with Il protest that we arc not deserving of
tho place assigned us. Speaking OF tho
New Orleans Delta's appearance and its
position, our cotcmperary ofCaldweii says:
Like McC'ranie, of the OUAcuITA TEIE-
GRAPH, than whom IL moro fearless, coIisis-
tent and out-spollen Democrat lives not in
this State, the Delta advocates re-organi-
day. In this connection il may not be IT.
relevent to remark that Capt. McCranie, OF
the TELEGRAPH, was the first to originate
party in this State. The Delta is strangely
neglectful i'll referring to and advocating re-
organization. in not giving due credit to
the TELEaRAnH, as the , "rigina,tor r., and ND
trying vicissitudes it has been our lot to
pass since the war, there lives no man in
this State whose political record is more
clear. consistent and pronounced in his
| advocacy of the pure principles Of Democ-
racy than CIV McCranie, ofthe OUAcHrrA
/ TET.EtsaAPn. lie has fearlessly and persis-
the venality, fraud and corruption which
have characterized tho administration of

| our late unple,santness. He has been the
Staunch and immovaLle bearer of the stan
dard through, veal and Voc during all this
| troublous time upon which is inscribed the
| pure and uncontan,inated principles OF his
| party. He has been fairly elected to seat
in tile National Congress- out Of which he

iTlll Democracy.

A call is in ejaculation in this city for the
immediate organization of tho Democratic
party Of this State. This step has been
deemed necessary in order to place tho con-
servative elements Of Louisiana in speedy
and thorough accord with the only political
Organization of the Union, in opposition to
Radicalisln and the only PARTY which can
possibly redeem our State. We glad to
know that'oi the many leading and think
ing men now in Monroe, from II large num-
Der of parishes, not one has expressed any
but a hearty appreciation of the movement
proposed of the nuHiber having been
Liberals, Reformers, &c. 1t is, we are
assured, not proposed I" pile up signat ures
(the number of which could be had by the
hundred,) but simply to enroll the names
of representative mon ofthe many parishes
now represented here, and to indicate to All
the Conservatives OF the State that the peo-
pie are anxious to place themselves in line
with the Democratic organization of tho
Union, and to express II sense ni wenriness
with political expetlients promising every
thing and resuftin. in nothing.

The Crops.

We have had an opportunity to gather in
formation about the crops, just at this crit
zeal stage, which is seldom met with, owing
to tho nlllnbcr OF visitors from nearly all
North Louisiana in town tho past week.
The reports we nave, gathered from hill and
swamp, from homo and abroad, concur i'll Il
very favorable average of both corn and cot
ton. The corn crop, il seems, is as good as
n,ado, and tho total will be large. So much
tho better for The country, thanks to lius
b:,ndry and the peoples necessities. Cot
ton is fruitng VOL and growing vigorously.
The ses,s"I,s are prnpitious. The caterpillar
and the August urouths are, however, to be
dreaded. The labor of cultivation is pretty
we'll over. The general prospect is encour-
ing for independent farming aud for sub
sistence next year. And the capitalists and
banks may very soon keep their green backs.
