NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY. MAY 20. 1882.


Well, we give it up. Ask the Village
Council
Police business has been unusually
lively this week. The arrests have av-
eraged about two per day.
The Chicago morning dailies now ar
rive here the morning after publication,
thanks to the night train.
Only four more weeks at school and
then the youngsters can run around
town to their hearts delight.
Samuel T. Burrell, who is to manage
the MulletL Lake House the coming sea-
son, arrived Saturday. 1t is to be opened
to the public June first.
From notice in our cotempOrary we
see Mr.. Gallagher proposes to have a
board of review Of his own, consisting
solely of c. A. Gallagher.
VIM. Kennedy stole $25 from man
this week. He was arrested and on ex-
animation before Justice plead guilty
and was sentenced for one year to Ionia.
Already large number Of summer
travellers begin to arrive. The number
that will visit our northern country this
season will probably be larger than any
previous one.
Mr.. French the owner of the Grand
Central Hotel property, and who is to
take possession the 1st of June, is expect
ed every day. 1t is expected that he will
bring full complement of experienced
help with him.
C.E. Arnold of this village held ticket
No. 2S,3S9 in the Detroit Commercial Ad-
vertiser drawing. which number drew
$50. The money was sent by W. II. Burke,
publisher, May 9th, and was received
last week by Mr.. Arnold.
A newspaper is certainly getting pref
ly low when for the sake of few COM
plimentary tickets it speaks favorabIy of
s snide swindling circus and says things
it knows to be false to help swindle the
readers out Of their money.
A Bay City job printing house has had
a solicitor here this week. But his
orders were few and far between. Good
job printing is done in this town in good
style and at low prices SO any snide
concern don't receive much encourage
ment here.
Instead of the attendance at our graded
school falling off with warm weather it
has increased. Upwards of $50 are now
in attendance. A great deal of credit
belongs to the teachers for this, as they
have tried with their utmost abilities to
make the school interesting as well as
beneficial
We hear that steps will be taken to
prevent persons from bathing off the
docks at the entrance to this harbOr the
coming season. 1t has always been a
reprOach to the town allowing such an
exhibition of indecency as this has al
ways been and it is certainly time it
was stopped.
Our reliable cOtemp0rary says C. A.
Gallagher has been issuing orders as
Supervisor which are not being paid
We are not surprised at the latter state
ment. if such orders have been issued,
but as Mr.. Gallagher is not recognized
by the Town Board as Supervisor, we do
not believd he has been issuing orders
on his own responsibility.
Jack Allen after being liberated by
circuit Court was twice arrested for !
drunkenness and let off on suspended |
sentence, but Tuesday night he was
again arrested and at a hearing before |
justice was required to give bail in$20O or |
go to Ionia for one year. He was unable |
to procure bondsmen and Sheriff Mute
took him there, starting yesterday.
The appointment of Geo. P. Humphrey
as postmaster Of Cheboygan, was con- !,
firmed by the Senate last Wednesday.
His commission will probably arrive
soon when he will enter upon the duties.
We are sorry to lose Mr.. Ford but are
pleased that he will have so capable a
successor Mr.. Humphrey has purchased
the postoflice building and lot Of Mr..
Ford.
A. r. Thayer of this city will depart in
a few days for Cheboygan, where he will
engage in the manufacture Of "excel-
sior," a substance for which there is
large and constantly increasing demand.
He will also manufacture hoops. and will
increase his facilities as business de-
