A Courageous Lady.

A few evenings ago two ladies of refined
society were riding in the same street car
on the avenue with drunken man and his
wife and rather timid girl, who did not
belong to either party. Ths man was quite
profane, and his wife repeatedly urged him
TO be quiet as he was producing fear in the
minds of the ladies in the car. Finally he
appealed to them to know if such was the
case, and being answered in the negative, he
resumed his swearing, his wife still pleading
with him to desist. Growing tired of his
wjfe's entreaties, he struck her, when one of
the ladies rose to her feet and informed him
that he must not do SO again. The man
also rose and threatened to strike the lady,
but covered, drunk as he was, under her
courageous defiance. When he had taken
his seat, the lady went to the driver Of the
oar and demanded that the man be put out.
The driver timidly begged the lady to wait
until he met an approaching car, that he
might get assistance, but she declined. ana

calculated to impair the loneliness OF dispo-
sition of the author.
The only sympathy that he has discovered
in the letters of General Lee and General
Longslreet is in the personal aspirations Of
the latter. His peculiar mind should not
be expected to see otherwise. General Lee
said:

discomfort in the public journals at the re-.
suit of the expedition. don't know how
far this feeling extends in the army. My
brother officers have been too kind to re-
port it, and 80 far the troops have been too
generous to exhibit it.
Ny letter said in substance that, rather
than say anything calculated to impair the
respect and confidence Of the troops and
the people IN General Lee, would will
ingly take and bear the responsibility OF
the loss of the battle till could relieve my
self Of that responsibility at some future
time without injury to the cause. When it
is known that neither had any idea of the

of note. But if there is not, this is only
another of my mistakes. Why this extreme

Queries and Answers.

The editor of the Free Press takes unto
himself considerable credit for answering
some questions which we proponnded
last week. In regard to the correctness
of those answers, we leave that to those
who kno,O the facts OF the matter. With
the exception, Of the Free Press editor'
the readers of the TRIBUNE have failed
to discover any place where it has said
that james j.. Brown had declined the
challenge of Mr.. Humphrey" This in
answer to the Free Press numerous ques-
tions OF that subject.
With reference to the questions upon
other subjects, we would simply say that
while we do not consider ourselves bound
by any means to answer all the foolish
questions with which the Free I re seditol
may see INT to fill his paper, we will state
for his benefit, as well as all other equally
ignorant individuals. that the editor Of
the TRIBUNE voted for Mr.. Humphrey
in the convention in which he was nom
mated. has supported him since, ant
if he lives until the 7th day Of November
next, that he, together with two othe
members of the TRIBUNE staff, will vot,
for his election.

Dissatisfied.

The editor of the Free Press feels bad
because we tailed to notice ''nearly a
column of its editorial page" filled with
vituperation and abuse of the political
management of the TRIBUNE. We did
not expect the political management OF
the TRIBUNE wonld be pleasing to the
Free PIess. We did not intend that it
should. We are gratified that It is not.
As we have not in the past. We shall not
in the future, consult the Free Press re-
garding the political policy of This jour
nal; nor shall we go to the editor of the
Free Press to ascertain whether said
management is satisfactory to prominent
men OF his own party The fact that
the TRIBUNE has been source of SC
much uneasiness to the Free Press, il

cal course has been eminently satisfactory

1t is rarely that the people Of county
have the privilege;of voting for so uni
formally good ticket as is presented to
them this fall by the Republican party.
Particularly is this the case as far as the
nominees effect the local interests Of the
county. There is net one, from the
member of Congress down, against
whose private character or public record
that there can aught be said. They are
honest men and true reformers. Equal
in importance to the member of Congress,
which is spoken of elsewhere, is the MEM
ber of the. .Stete Legislature. TO this po-
sition the Republicans expect to elect
Watts S. Humphrey, who received a
unanimous nomination from the party
for the place, and whose friends are num-
erous throughout the district, and who
are working for him with will which
shows how sincere is their friendship.
Mr.. Humphrey is a young man of much
more than ordinary abilities, and if elect
ed will as surely make his mark in the
House of Representatives. He was a
gallant soldier during the war, and, al
though quite young at the time, made
such record as any man might well be
proud. At the end of the war he began
life i'm earnest, commencing at the bot
tom round of the ladder and working his
way up slowly but surely until he reach
ed his present homo able position. OF
his lite since he established himself in
this place every resident of this county
is familiar. 1t is an open book and can
be real by all. He has held the Office OF
Prosecuting Attorney for q number Of
wears, and to the entire satisfaction of
the people. He is indefatigable in work,
few men being able to accomplish more
in given time. AS lawyer, few men
of his experience have better record.
Having been long resident in this coun-
try, he has as complete q knowledge OF
the necessities Of the country as any. one
can well have. As a public speaker he
has always been thought good, but he
has surprised even his most intimate
friends since the campaign opened. prov
ing himself to be, as we once before re-
marked, one of the best speakers in the
state. Thus Mr.. Humphrey possesses 10
a remarkable degree all the important re-
quirements for useful and successful
legislator. Dir. Humphrey has never
yet disappointed his friends i'll any posi-
ton in which their favor had placed
him, and if the people CT this district see
fit to elevate him to this place We are sat
isfiei that they will never regret it.

NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY, OCTOBER IS, 1876.

Perhaps looking at matters in the light

Perhaps looking at matters in the light
of local interest, representative in Con-
gress is the most important position to
which we will have to elect this fall
Situated, as We are. upon most impor-
tant point upon the lake shore, we shall,
OF necessity, for some years, yet have to
look to the general government for aid
in the completion of the harbor improve
ments at this place, as well as to keep
them. in repair. This should be looked
after by our representative in Congress.
For years past, in fact ever since the last
reorganization of the Congressional dis
tricts of this state, our Congressman has
always been resident of Saginaw valley.
1t is we'll known fact among all those
acquainted with political matters in the
state, that Saginaw valley, and those
counties whose interests center at Sagi-
nav and Bay City, have combined to-
gether to control the political affairs OF
that section of the state, and always have
controlled them to their own interest and
against the interests of those sections OF
the state which happened to be yoked
with them, but which had different inter
ests. To this last class. belonged Cheboy-
gan, as all of our citizens know who have
had anything to do i'm securing govern
ment aid for our harbor. The represen-
tatives of this district living as they did
in the Saginaw valley, never took that
interest i'm our affairs, which as our rep
resentatives they should. A great share
of the work done, and We might say, the
work which made the government APP
preparations success, was done by Other
than our own representatives. 1t is an
undisputed fact, that Saginaw people
from representatives, down. are selfish in
looking after their own interests. to the
neglect of others. So strong had thi;
feeling become, and so much had the out
side counties of the district been neglect
ed, that in the last Republican Congress
sional convention, the counties outside Ol
the ''valley" united together and nomi.
mated Hon. Charles G.. Ellsworth, OF
Montcalm county, for representative
thus throwing it outside of the Saginaw
valley. With Mr.. Ellsworth as our rep
rescntative, all parts of the district will
be faithfully looked after, no one portion
receiving any advantage over the other
as always will be the case if the repre-
sentative is identified with the interests
of Saginaw valley. If for no other rea
SON, this is a sufficient one why the citi
zens of Cheboygan county should vot'
for Charles G.. Ellsworth.
