Alpcna Guards.

The Alpena Guards after en-
campment at Crosse Isle, returned
home on Monday morning, feeling
very well after their week of re-
creation and drill. They report as
having had good time generally,
and enjoying themselves in the
most approved manner.
They arrived at Camp Richard
son on Monday morning, and were
received by the commanding Of
ficers of the regiment, formed in
line, and marched to their camp
ing grounds, where they were or
dered to "pitch tents" The bal
ance of the day was passed by the
boys drawing camp equipage, fit
ting up the grounds, ETC., and in
the evening they fell in and were
drawn up on guard mount. The
guards for the day were selected
from the Alpena company. About
the first operation on Tuesday
morning was the arrest of por-
ton of the National Guards for
drinking at beer shop near the
camping grounds. The programme
for the rest of the time was much
the same as is known to all soldiers,
excepting in the evenings they
were privileged to "trip the light
fantastic toe" at the hops given at
the dance hall on the island. They
were treated in the best manner,
served with excellent rations, and
supplied with good servants in
high style.
On the camping grounds the
company was allowed to name its
own street, which they called "Maltz
avenue"
The target practice which took
place on Thursday, was sharply
contested, the Alpena Guards be-
ing victorious on the distance of
200 yards, but on the longer dis
tances the Saginaw Rifles succeed
ed in carrying off the laurels "by
the skin of their teeth"
On Friday the regiment was re-
viewed in the presence of large
concourse of spectators, and the
Alpena Guards acquitted them
selves in highly satisfactory and
praiseworthy manner.
Their visit to the camp did them
no harm, and when they returned
on Monday, they showed plainly
that there was considerable i'm
provement in their appearance as
soldiers. The Alpena company,
78 in number, was the largest on
the grounds.

Reform Meeting.

Last Thursday evening, Hon.
Lyman d. Norris, of Ypsilanti, adj
dressed large audience, consist
ing of both Democrats and Repub-
licans, at the skating rink, on the
POLITICAL issues of the day. Mr..
Norris appealed to every one pre-
sent to study the question as if
their own personal interests were
particularly concerned; to study
both sides and then form their
own opinions; he showed how the
present hard times were, to great
extent, caused by the extravagant
expenditures of the present adj
ministration, and that the want and
distress that were creeping into
every household, had been the
means of setting them all thinking !;
he showed that it was impossible
for party to reform itself, and
that Hayes, If elected, could not
turn ont the men by whose efforts
he had gained his election. He
then showed what great differ
ence there was between the two
candidates, and what better
chance their was for reform under
n practical reformer like Tilden,
than with q mere passive party
man like Hayes. He firmly be-
lieved in the success of Tilden, and
gave many instances to prove that
a great POLITICAL revolution was
going on among the people of this
country. He wanted those pre-
sent to carry the question to their
own firesides, and there, in an un-
prejudiced manner, work out the
problem, and vote conscientiously
according as their reason should
prompt them to.
Mr.. Norris remarks we're listen
ed to attentively by the large au-
dience, as though their whole well
fare depended upon impressing on
their minds the directions he was
laying down for their future pros
pcrity, and as the way before them
was made clear aud unobstructed
10y the convincing statments Of the
eloquent speaker, the responses

Prof. Estabrook delivered a Re-
publican speech at the rink Mon
day evening, and he "claimed" to
be a non-partisan man; but like all
the Republican speakers, he at
tempted to underate and belittle
the character of Governor Tilden.
Although claiming to view the
contest in a fair, impartial manner,
he used his eloquence in trying
to prove that Tilden was both q
rogue and q rebel, assertions that
can not, nor have not been proved.
However, even though he be q non
partisan, the following extract from
the New York Times, staunch
Republican journal, in 1871, when
good man was much needed,
shows that the reverend gentlemen
must be somewhat misinform
The voters of the eighteenth
assembly district ought to esteem
it an honor and a privilege to elect
Samuel J. Tilden to the Legisla-
ture. He has shown himself gal
liant, conscientious, efficient foe to
corruption. We appeal to every
Republican to vote and work for
him, and do so the more cheerfully
AS we make this appeal-because
he is an honest Democrat.
Still another proof of his high
character comes from a Republi-
can source, Cleveland, Brown &
Co., who said:
And we cheerfully place on re-
cord the gratifying fact that in all
our intercourse with him, tnearly
ten years. involving the disposal
of many million dollars worth Of
ore, we have found him the i'm
personation of commercial recti-
tude and honor.
Park Goodwin says of Tilden:
81 have been intimately acquainted
with Mr.. Tilden for nearly forty
years,-I have never had the
slightest occasion to suspect his alb
solute integrity of purpose and
sincerity of conviction. In all the
relations of private life he is pu-
rity itself"
