A Few Plain Questions.

Now that our cOtemporary seems to
have exhausted its vocabulary of hard
names, we trust it will have the fairness
to answer the following plain questions:
Was the statement it made that Che
bOygan was full of thieves, gamblers,
pimps and prostitutes and that life was
not safe in our village, true one?
In persisting that it was true, was it
not in effect trying to make out that
ChebOygan was the worst place in the
state?
Has it not assumed that the TRIBUNE
was defending the vices-that all admit
do exist to certain extent, when there
has not been one word in this paper that
in fairness could be tortured to mean
anything of the kind,-while we have
only been defending the good name of
our village from the unjust and uncalled
for attacks of the Democrat?
Does it mean to say that three of the
clergymen of the village commend its
attack upon the good name of our vii
lage, or only that they commend it SO
far as its efforts are put forth to improve
the morals of the place? You see there
is distinction with quite a differ
ence" in the two statements, and in the
latter it would have the commentator
of all good citizens and none more heart
lily than the TRIBUNE, but to do this VIZ
do not think it necessary to defame our
town by such wholesale statements re-
gardless of facts as that paper has made

Another Railroad In Prospect.

Last Saturday the Detroit & Bay City
railroad was sold at Detroit to James
Mcmillan and H. B. Ledyard for $685.
$50. As is well known these gentleman
are largely interested in the Detroit
Mackinac & Marquette railroad, and
also that the same parties are interested
in the company that is figuring to con-
struct road from Bay City to Alpena,
putting these together it is the opinion
of some who claim to be pretty well post
ed, that it means the extension of the
latter project through to Cheboygan and
the straits, in order to connect with the
upper peninsula road. 1t is acknOwledg-
ed that this latter project, If carried out,
would afford through line having de-
cided advantages over the j. L. & S. rail
road. While there would be but little diff
ference in the distance to be traversed
the grade of road by way of the shore
towns would possess great advantage
in grades, and consequently be much
better adapted to the moving of heavy
trains of freight. Time, of course, will
develop whether there is anything in
the cOnjectures or not but we believe
it will not be many years before such a
road will be built.

1t is an acknowledged fact that the
White Sewing Machine now stands pre-
eminent among first-class machines, for
it's simplicity and light-running qualities.
1t is a mechanical fact that the White
Sewing Machine is made from the best
material and of excellent workmanship,
and all its wearing parts are adjustable,
SO that lost motion can be "taken up'' ia
an instant. sre.
1t is an undisputed fact that the dura-
bility Of the White Sewing Machine is
sustained by a written warranty for five
years.
1t is progressive fact that the White
embodies the most practical and useful
improvements of other sewing machines,
together with advantages peculiarly it's
own.
IL is money-making fact that the
White is the easiest-selling selling ma

wide-awake dealers make it their speciality.

The Apache Country.

Gen. George Crook, commanding the
ID, pariment of tae Platte, was in com.
mand of the Arizona Department from
1871 to 1875, and bad during that time
conquered the Apaches. He says there
were twenty or more bands OF Apaohes
over which Pedro, who is reported SIS
having led the party who massacred
Gen. Carr and his men, was chief. The
Apsches numbered 10000. and about
6 coo hostiles who lived in the White
Mountain country. They were very
desperate and fought with great bravery
and skill. The country in which they
live is almost inaccessible. The lava
beds of the Modocs, in which Capt
Jack made his remarkable stand, are
macadamizsd roads in comparison with
line nights and crsgs where those hos
tile Apaches live. They are not only
brave, but are the most,.cunning Indians
on the American continent, being far
superior to the Sioux in intellect. They
cannot be starved out. as the White
Mountains abound in came, and also the
Mescal, a nutritious plant something
like the aloe. or century plant. which
they use for food. One squGw can
gather enough in day to last whole
family a year. During Gen. Crook
campaign Pedro WAS peaceable. and
was then of good character. He will
make dangerous leader. All of the
White Mountain Indians are probably
engaged in the outbreak. and there are
between twelve and fifteen hundred
warriors among them. 1t will take
strong force to subdue them, and in
fantry will be the most seryieeable.

Advice to Husbands,

Place confidence in your childie0
Do not let them know your suspicious.
Commend them for their efforts, and
encourage them with your interest.
Be moderate in the number of O ur
intimate friends, and rest assured you
can have no better or trustier conf
dant than the woman who bears your
name.
The superiority of man has always
been acknowledged, but a husband
should have manly understanding
enough not to assert it over his wife.
Be strictly moral; make your habits
classical; you are the criterion of your
wife and family. If they are not what
they ought to be, you are the RESPONSE
BILE party.
If your wife is out Of temper, fail to
see it. remembering that there are a
thousand minor vexstions about her
lot of which you are entirely ignorant.
Never speak harshly.
There are two ways of governing a
family; one by brute force, the other
by firm but gentle authority. The first
is very efectual, and will secure not
only ready obedience and submission,
but the undying luminosity of Your I'M
fortunate children.
Let domestic matters alone; you
know nothing about them, and if you
did they are not the kind of cares for a
man to assn me. Be the cashier and
make your wife business manager OF
the home. If she proves incapable,
offer suggestions which she will thank
fully receive if msde in the right way
Avoid contradicting your wife; you
never did it before and should not dc
it after marriage. If you do indulge
in lively argument or sharp dispute
conclude it with some good-humored
pleasantly to show that you are neither
hurt yourself, nor intend that she
should be. In all your arguments and
controversies never make her uncon.
genial friends or relatives the subject,
and do not review the mistakes or mis-
deeds of her past life. There may
have been q thousand follies which
vanity or misfortune drew her into,
and which always defeated their pur-
pose, but you will be most kind and
she most grateful if you do not open
with remembrsnces wounds which you
cannot heal.
Do not humiliate your wife by
making her feel her dependence.
Never buy her dresses, hats or other
wearing apparel. as You rob her of half
the delight-that of shopping and ex-
ercising her individual taste. Give
her an allowance and pay it regularly
d you do your servsnts, and never be
sordid enough to bring her to an &C.
count about the way she spends it..
She has sensibilities on this point that
you are bound to respect. Do not
grumble about the grocer and butcher
bills till your bread and butter almost
chokes her and she wishes she was in
the bottom of the lakes with mill.
stone around her neck. She is the
weaker, and at your mercy, and if you
fail to properly care for her You are q
pFeiurer.
