THE RED CLOUD AFFAIR.

I have attempted investigation of the
Red Cloud Agency report. The Sioux
runner who brought the story positively
asserts its truth, stating that disagree

and that the latter had killed General Nc
Kenzie. The runner does not profess to
haye been present-thlnks there was q

For many years we have made two
medicines suited to the ailments of yas'
class of sufferers. Thousands of cures
have been made by them, and, in feet
the word failure could not be coupled
with them. But within the last two year,
counterfeits of our medicines have sprung
up, dangerous in their close imitation OF
our Trade Mark. TO secure the people
We have placed upon each genuine box OF
Holloway's Ointment the fac simile of the
signature of oar agent, Mr.. JOS. Haydock
l O counterfeit is felony. We shall re
Ientlcssly pursue any one who initiates
this with the utmost vigor of the law.
We most earnestly beg that the great
mass of the American people will aid US
in our efforts to protect their health, and
help us in our task of bringing these
unprincipled men to the bar of justice

The Presbyterian Resort.

The CharlevOiX Sentinel man feels bad
because that village has no chance for Sc
curing the location of the summer resort
in its vicinity, and vents his feelings up
on the subject by saying; 'The Pres
byterian ministerial resort will probably
be located at Burt lake. CharlevoiX ex-
cells all the other places in point of natu-
raj beauty and facilities for pleasure, but
her modesty and unpretentiousness can't
cope with the moneyed Influence of the
railroad companies and the larger towns
This is the reason that the prizes are al
captured by those northern pirates
Hearing that the Episcopalions are think
ing of securing some location where tht
ministers of that body can enjoy some
rest and recreation during the heat of thu
summer, he feels bad over that also, anC
relieves himself by SAYING: Nov it il

railroad allies to appoint committee t.

The New Bridge.

The steamer St. Joseph brought up
the iron bridge from Cleveland and land
ed it at Humphreys dock last Tuesday
night. 1t has been viewed by many of
our citizens. and many have been their
conjecLures.in regard to what portion of
the bridge each piece belonged. Messrs.
Dansizen and Shorb, from the bridge
works at Canton, Ohio, arrived on the
stage last Wednesday evening, and are
busily engaged in getting it together and
setting it up. The general opinion is, so
far as we have heard it. expressed, that
the bridge will be just what was needed,
and will be both ornamental and dura-
ole. and be much TO the credit of the
town. The contractors for the guards
and approaches have been pushing mat
ters during the week, in order to have
things ready for the bridge to be placed
in position, and hope to have everything
completed by the time the bridge is up
ready for use. rr--~

this state, it being in session 140 days.
This is including Tuesday of this week,
when the Legislature adjourned sine die,

session. Believing a brief resume of the
business done would be of interest 10 our
readers, we CLEAN from the Lansing cor
respondent of the Detroit Post the fol-
lowing: The records show that G03 bills
were introduced in the House. of which
IA were passed and $50 tabled or in
definitely postponed. Fifty-six jeint res
olntions were introduced in the House,
of which q passed and 20 were killed.
OF the bills passed, 209 have been pre-
sented to the Governor, and l9l have
been signed, vetoed, and 2 returned
without signature. viz: one relating to
the Kent county stenographer, and the
other legalizing an election III Gratiot
cnuuty of which legal notice was not giv-
en-. The bills vetoed were, first, bill to
extend the time of collecting taxes in
Howell; second. bill to yacate the
township of Lake i'm BenZie county !;
third, bill relative to receivers in chan
Gerry; and, fourth, bill to change the
name of Thomas Morrissey and make
him heir at law of Thomas M. Sterling.
Nineteen other House bills wonld have
have been vetoed for constitutional and
other reasons had they not been return
ed to the House for correction. One of
these was returned twice.
In the Senate 275 bills were introduced.
of which 1872 passed. and 143 were killed
at some stage of their passage. Twenty
six joint resolutions were introduced in
the Senate, of which only 10 succeeded in
getting through both Houses. OF the
l32 bills passed, 106 have been presented
to the Governor, and of these 96 have

TIE APPROPRIATIONS.

Opposition and irresponsible journals
have been iIdustrlously circulating re-
ports that the state finances are i'm Il de-
plorably bad condition and that greatly
increased taxes are inevitable. Such is
not the case. The aggregate OF appro-
priations for the next two years as given
by the Governor. who has examined the
bills carefully. will not exceed 100000.
The aggregate for the last two years was
S1.242,107 30, and i'm addition to that
there was drawn from the sinking fund
$466,S2S 40, makinga total for the past
two years OF $1,7OS,935 20, or an excess of
$S,935 over the aggregate appropriations
for the two years to come. The total
appropriations for the two years 1873 and
1874 were S1,SS5.675. or an excess of
| $1S5,675 over the appropriations for the
years 1877 and 1878. This showing is
most gratifying and needs no comment.
| Only seven bills and joint resolutions
in any way affecting railroads succeeded
in running the gauntlet OF both houses,
some Of these are of little consequence.
| - TAX LAWS.
One of the most important measures
in regard to the tax laws was the passage
of bill introduced by Mr.. Hoyt, having
jim view the protection of taxpayers. 1t
provides that no warrant or order for the
payment of money shall be drawn upon
any township or county treasurer with
out specifying on the face of the warrant
the purpose for which it is drawn, and
the appropriation from which it is to be
paid, and no warrant shall be drawn un-
til the appropriation lfs been made. and
the tax thereon voted. nor shall any war;
rant be drawn in excess of the appropri; :
ton. The new law further provides that
all moneys raised by tax Tor highway
purposes must be expended only in the
township where it was raised, even
though several surveyed townships be
embraced in one township organization
and no township with less population
than 1000 can raise for contingent town
ship expenses any one year more than
$500.
Among the miscellaneous bills which
passed both Houses may be mentioned
those prohibiting hunting or fishing on
enclosed grounds without the consent OF
the owner; prohibiting township treas
urers from holding office more than two
years in succession requiring jurors tc
be drawn equally from the several town
ships; fixing term of appointed state Of
