injunction, Charley-Come again, glad
To see you.
Lawyers are in good demand round
here just now, as the boys from Pot
ter's camp are on their ''indignity" and
bound TO have their "squiblum" or
gore; and, from present appearance the
little breeze may assume the proper
tions of 'jimecane" before its fury
is spent-ye elements, what commo-

The CRAWFORD AVALANCHE has
revived from its recent apathy, and
now ranks among the best of our eX-

Many thanks, brother Sweet; you
will remember our name implies a
rusher, henceforth, you see we want
to rush her" round the country
chuck" full of netoSy matter--but
there, we'll forbear on account of
our extreme modesty.
We took up our quill to give some
body "A boost politically, but when
we calmly surveyed the array of can
dadates, we didn't know who TO "ele-
vate, as to distinguish between 'twee-
die de and tweedle dunn would have
a tendency To run us into a hornets
nest whose business end, of course,
we want nothing to do with. So, as it
is, gentlemen, just go in, you all have
our sympathy and may the best men
win.
Mr. David Nichols departed from
this place last week to hunt up other
parts more to his liking in which to
settle down and wrestle with hard
work. He informed certain parties
here that he thought of taking in"
Ohio, Florida, Illinois, Oregon and a
few of them places, and would proba-
bly, strike the right spot before he let
up" "Mebbe' SO, ''mebbe" 50, We
wont pretend TO say.

There are quite number of other

but we have no present means of know
ing the seasons cut.
Two gentlemen from Ovid, Clinton
county, Messrs. Potter and Gibbs. were
in town the forepart of this week look
ing for place in which TO locate n
general store. After doing" the town
they departed north on the next train.
TO look mt Otsego Lake and Gaylord,
when they think they will be able to
decide which will be the likeliest place
in which to embark IN that branch of
industry.
Nothing speaks more favorably of
"a farmers temper and self-control than
to see him surrounded 10y animals
which like him. Farm hands should
never be allowed TO yell and scold at
COWS, horses or any other beasts; much
less to ill-treat or whip them into obe-
dience. With slow and gentle move
ment, decided but mild voice, and
above all never-failing patience, all
living beings are much better controlled
than 10y harsh and despotic treatment.
The total valuation of the Nation
al wealth of this country is placed in
round figures at $50, 600. 0O0 600, and
stands third i'm the list of all other
countrys of the globe. In the annual
accumulation we stand first with SS25,
600, 600, to The United Kingdom OF
Great Britain and Ireland's 1925, 600,
0OO and Frances 1915, OO0 600. Ev,
cry day the sun rises on the American
people it sees an addition of -, 300, 00(
to the wealth of the Republic.
We can't see as Northern is any
different from South, East or Western
Michigan in the multiplicity of candi
dates for town honors, as we have beer
, button-holed by legions, and talked
coniidentially to 10y hosts, and in
formed by many that this and thai
were such, and Mr.. Il. was looking fol
a Supervisorship and Mr.. ii. wanted
to be bold highway commissioner
and that Tom, Dick and Harry would
be TO pay, if these things were no
looked into. Now take your cue, gen
tleman, and punch em all mp lively
but don't forget that a good deal de
pends in the count"
