The organ in its last issue wants
to know who Tilden is. We there
fore refer His Imperial Ignorance
to the following letter which was
published in the Christian Regis
ter, which paper during the cam
paign, greedily published ell the
SANDERS against Tilden that could
be raked up:
Ipassed an hour with Mr. Tilden
at Mr.. Godwin's house, a few weeks
ago, and had quiet conversation
with him on his hate administration
as Governor of this State and his
stand as reformer. He spoke in
tho most positive way Of his meas
ures Of reform, and his words were
wholly in keeping with what / have
heard and read Of his administra-
ton from worthy sources. He Is
an able, clear-headed, far sighted
man. AS to his personal character
am bound to- trust less in party
rhetoric than in such friends as
Parke Goodwin and William G.
Bryant, who affirm, after intimate
acquaintance with Mr.. Tilden du-
ring his whole public career, that
they have entire confidence in his
rectitude, sobriety and patriotism,
as well as in his great gifts Of
craftsmanship. When / had this
conversation with him the result Of
the count had not been decided /;
but he seemed to me to have given
up tho chase TO bis competitor, and
to wish to leave the Issue to the
appointed tribunal. A neighbor,
who did not vote for the unsuccess-
full candidate, may be allowed to
say this honest and kindly word in
his behalf, as wen as to express the
wish that the sagacity and patriot
ism of the better class Of Demo
Gratis here and elsewhere may be
appreciated, and that generous
coonsels may prevail between the
opposing parties and rival sections

CRY OFFICERS.

The election In this city passed
off very hartnohiously Monday,
there being no disturbances of any
kind, and peace prevailing through
out the day. The greater part Of
the contest was for Mayor, and as
that office had been carried by the
Republicans by good majoritles for
the past three years, the chances
were decidedly against the Demo-
Gratis. Both parties worked hard
all day in favor Of their candidates,
and neither feeling confident Of .
victory. The candidates, A. W.
Comstock on the Democratic ticket,
and A. N. Spratt on the Republican
side, are two of Alpena's best citi-
zens, and therefore the chances
were pretty evenly divided In that
respect, yet rather against the
Democrats, when considering the
result for the last three years.
When The ballots were cahvassed
at night, the result showed very
close contest, and majority Of
two id favor Of A. N. Spratt, Re
publican.
For the office of Comptroller, the
candidates were James D. Turhhull,
on the Democratic side, and Geo.
L. Msltz, on the Republican ticket.
As far as the office of Comptroller
was concerned, 1t was quite appar-
eut In the morning that Mr. Turn
bull would receive handsome
majority, and Mt night the result
showed 90 in his favor.
For the office of Recorder there
we're A. r. Mcdonald, on the Dem
ocratic ticket, against Chas. N.
Cornell, Republican. Considerable
interest was manifested in regard
To- these two candidates, and the
friends of each worked with 3 de.
termination TO elect their man,
Mcdonald has filed the Office for
the past two years, and having dis
charged the duties pertaining there
to faithfully, it bespoke much In
his fator, and the ballots showed
result to correspond, giving him
majority Of As.
For Treasurer, on the Democrat.
ic ticket, Thos. H. Hunt was the
candidate, sgainst Chas. b. Greeley
the Treasurer for the past year
There was not so much Interest
manifested for the candidates fol
this Office, and as Greeley came il
on the home stretch With MAORI
ty of 8, there were no murmur
ings.
For Justice of The peace lri
Stout, Democrat, and Paul Dane
Republican, were the candidates
and the result Of the election wa'
very close, being 2 msjority fo
Stout.

The skating rink closed up for
the season, last Saturday evening
This place has been the source of
much pleasure and amusement du-
ring the past winter, and has also
been a great benefit to those per-
sons whose business keeps them
indoors, and who, by reason Of
their confinement, have but little
recreative exercise. Another ben
eft of the rink is the opportunity
it afforded for social gathering of
friends, and then who can tell how
many young men who SO gallantly
supported members of the fair sex
as they glided over the ice, but de-
terinined to devote themselves to
supporting some fair skater for the
balance of their life. No man is
always sure of his footing, and
wheh they slip they sometimes fall
head over heels into love.

Although our candidates for

Mayor. The Board of Education
will stand four Democrats and two
Republicans. The Board Of Su-
pervisors will stand five Democrats

The Cheboygan Tribune which
appeared 80 indignant against AL
pena people because they asked
the State Legislature to grant
State lands in aid of a railroad
across the country, is in q bad fix.
The Cheboygan people desire a
grant Of land to aid in extending
the Grand Rapids g. Indiana rail-
road to their town, and the Mack
ihaw people are opposed to the
graft. The Tribune then comes
out with a leader, in which it en-
beavers to show the Mackinaw
people that they are mistaken and
do not know what Is good for them
Now we do not wish to be under
stood as being opposed to grant
of land for the benefit Of Cheboy-
gan, but we merely wish to remind
the Tribune that In order to be
consistent with its remarks on AL
pena, it ought not to find fault
with the Mackinaw people for OPP
posing the grant.
