The Grand Rapids Times published
statement seriously affecting Senator
Ferry's private character. In reply
Messrs. F. Tenney & Co., proprietors of
the National hotel. send to the Times a
letter in which they say:
We have read an article headed "Is
Ferry FTP" in the December 9TH issue
of your paper, in which you state that
Thomas W. Ferry was knocked down in
the National hotel at Washington by a
man named Cooper, who charged that
the senator had insulted Mrs. Cooper and
her daughter"
AS Senator Ferry has been guest of
our house, the National, during sessions
of Congress ever since we have been its
prOprietOrs (nOw about IL years), we
have the best opportunities of observing
his daily department.. Having known
and feeling assured that he has been
greatly misrepr esented, we deem it our
duty to say that your statement quoted
has no foundation in fact. With house
full of guests, no such act as you allege
Of "being knocked down in the National
hotel at Washington by man named
Cooper could have occurred without
our knowledge or that of some of our
guests or employees. None of them at
the time this act was alleged to have
been done believed there was any truth
in it.
You also state in your article, "That
assertions are made to the effect that
Senator Ferry has been drunk repeatly,
and that letters have been received, veri-
fled by high authority, stating that Fer
ry has been put TO bed hOpelessly intOxi-
Gated, by employees of the National hotel
at Washington" .tfB
We have never seen or known Senator
Ferry drink liquor, nor have we ever
heard any person say that any one else
ever did, nor has Senator Ferry been
put to bed hOpelessly intoxicated" or
in any wise under the influence of
drink.
We deem it simple duty to state these
facts and we take pleasure in stating
further that no guest of the National
has compOrted himself with more sobrie-
ty and respectable behavior than Sena-
tor Ferry. His high standing in Wash
ingtOn as gentleman and his perfect
decorum in life are unquestioned and
unassailable. 1t may not be improper
to add that, politically we are not in
sympathy with Senator Ferry.

A Rough Experience.

John II. Waterman returned home
from his camp, near Trowbridge station,
Thursday evening and reports his lum-
bering operations moving satisfactorily.
They had a rather rough experience in
getting started. He with his crew went
up Monday of last week and arrived at
their camp late in the evening, in a
binding snow storm. They found their
shanty had been completely gutted,
doors, floors, benches, hunks, tables, Sc.
had been converted into firewood by var
iOus parties who had sheltered there
since they last vacated the camp. The
windows hal been wantonly destroyed
and theibuilding was not much better
than snow drift, for a lodging place,
but they had to make the best of it and
make themselves as comfortable as pos
sible. To make matters more uncOm-
Portable, carload of supplies, upon
which they depended for subsistence, got
blOckaded by the snow on the track and
did not arrive until several days later
and then only after considerable tele-
graphing had been done to hurry 1t up.
The men were obliged to forage around
among the settlers in that region, and
borrow enough of Iths necessaries Of life
to subsist on until the car arrived. In
the mean time Mr.. Waterman had been
ordering windows and having the quar-
ters put in shape so that when the PROV
ender arrived they were ready for busi-
ness and when he left they had got we'll
started, and the crew consisting of 16
men and four teams were putting in logs
at the rate of about $4,000 feet per day.
He reports the snow, upon his arrival,
about two feet deep, but says the soft
weather has settled it fully one half.

NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1882.
Dedication hail.


The masonic fraternity are perfecting
arrangements for making their dedica-
tion party on New Years night, the
grandest success of the season. What
this means, those who have enjoyed their
pleasant parties in the past well know.
That 1t is an assured success, a glance
at the persoal of the following comm it.
tees, having the matter in charge, will
show:
COMMITTEE on arrangements. p.
Sutton, George G.. Wharton, Joseph
Cochran, Schuiler Farrell and c. w.
Farr. %
Committee on invitations George w.
Bell, Z. o. Penny, j. c. Wooster and
Robert Robinson.
Committee on receptiOn-Will C..
Whiting, Chas. +. Southam, W. G. BOggs
and Chas. II. Mute.
The committees have been actively at
work and have nearly all the arrange
ments perfected. j. L. Jewell has charge
of the banquet, which is a guarantee
that it will meet the requirements of
the occasion. Sweets full orchestra will
furnish the music, and everything indi-
Gates one of the most delightful occa-
sions ever enjoyed in Cheboygan. AS
stated last week, A. NJ. Clark, Grand Wis.,
itOr and Lecturer of the order of Michi-
gan has promised to be present and de-
liver the dedicatOry address.
The newly-elected officers will be in
stalled the same evening, and the cere-
mony will commence promptly at 8
o'clock. The installation and dedica-
tion will probably occupy from an hour
to an hour and a quarter, Immediately
after which the banquet will be served,
and the guests given ample opportunity
to satisfy any longings they may have
in that direction. After the banquet
the dance and other social enjOyments
of the evening. The large hall will be
devoted to the dance and the parlors to
the banquet and social amusement of
such as do not desire to join in the
dance. The price of tickets has been
fixed at $500. which, it Is estimated
will be barely sufficient to cover the ex-
penses of the occasion.

STATE NEWS.

During the month of November 3,S42
immigrants entered the United States
at Port Huron.
At Niles, last Monday was next to the
coolest day of the season, the thermOm-.
eter marking 10 degrees below zero.
A garpike 18 inches long came through
the water pipes at Niles, from Barron
Lake four miles away, and now decor
ates the aquarium at the city post-office.
A writer at Old Mission figures up the
value of fruit sold from the Grand Tray
erse peninsular this year at over $34,-
0OO IG was also an "off year" for fruit.
The contract has been let for building
ten-mile section of the Marquette,
HOughtOn 81 OntOnagOn railroad extern
sion between HOughtOn and L'Anse. The
entire 30 miles will probably be ready
for service early next fall.
The slaughter of the Michigan pine is
being waged with all the modern i'm
prOvements. One of the Grand Haven
firms operating at Six Lakes not only
has steam log railway, but lights up
the camps. rOllways, etc. by means of
street lamps.
After two years constant pumping the
bottom has been reached at the long
IlOOueu anu dDdnuOneu Olu NdJIOndl
mine near OntOnagOn and all the water
taken out. Active operations will soon
begin at the mine, which has 600-fOOt
shaft and rich supply of mineral.
The Saginaw City saw mills have cut
290,623, ,029 feet of pine this season; the
East Saginaw mills 161 .135, ,442, feet, and
the mills at Bay City and thereabouts
SCI, 1872, ,740 feet. Thus the total cut in
Saginaw valley is l,0l2,9l5,211 feet. The
heaviest cut in any previous year was
that Of 1881, which was 982.329,317 feet.
There was also 278,514 900 shingles made

i An article in the Northwestern Mining
News shows that during the past year
five Michigan mining companies have
paid their stockholders $4,000 more
than the actual paid-up capital Of the
companies. They are the Atlantic, CAL
umet & Hecla, Central, Osceola. and
Quincy. Since they were opened these
mines have paid nearly IL times the
amount of their paid-up capital, and
have paid one-fifth of the dividends paid
by all mining companies in the United
States during the past year.

CHILDREN's CHRusrMAs.
BY EARNEST.

Christmas is coming to the children,
know for hear their angels sing,
In the solemn hush OF midnight,
''HOsanna to the King"
For moment the earthly veil uplifted,
Dear mothers angel face 1 see
Upb0rne by adOring spirits,
She turns that face to me.
In all her bright celestial beauty,
A jewel from the masters crown,
From the midst OF that group OF children's
angels, ..
In glory shining down.
Then again the earth cloud intervening,
Hides the sweet vision from my sight,
But follow in thought the heavenly dwellers,
On their swift hOmeward fight
To my fancy the snow flakes seem bright
missives,
Shaken from the lustre of their wings,
To foretell the season of glad giving,
The birthday Of the king.
Christmas is coming to the children,
think, when / see the white flakes fall.
Mother on earth, in heaven smiling,
Christmas to all.
