The present local political campaign
is the most exciting one ever known
in Lake county. There are plenty of
aspirants to the Offices who, with their
friends arc making n thorough canvass.
Time will show the result; it is useless
to make any predict ions.
by reference to- earl published in
this issue, it will be seen that David a.
LathrOp announces himself az an indie
pendent candidate for Judge of Pro-
bate. Mr.. l.. is Republican in pol
tiles, and Is too well known throughout
the county to need an introduction
from us.
l.. Jennings, Esq, of Ionia, was in
Baldwin, last Tuesday evening, and
delivered II political speech in Court
House Hall. We regret that business
rendered us unable to be present. From
all VIC hear, he gave II rousing speech;
full of facts, and wortled in an effective
manner.
We have it from what we consider
reliable authority, that Jas. Nj. Foster,
is the main stakeholder i'm q paper
printed and mostly edited Ivy T.. o..
Rose of Big Rapids, and published not
a thousand miles from Baldwin. From
what we hear of the sheet, we judge
that there has been some pretty sour
rilous and violent personal articles
published in it. How docs this tally
with Mr.. Fosters assumed dignified
character? Is it possible that he puts
OF tho outside garb of high mindcdncss
and friendship, only that he may the
more cfiectually stab in secret those
whom he fancies to be his enemies? If
this is so, he Is poor creature, indeed;
filled with bitterness, Jealousy, envy,
malice and spite, which like a canker
is eating out all the good qualities in
him, and rendering bin person to he
shunne q even by his own soul.
