The Alpena City Hospital.

The undersigned would announce
to the citizens of Alpena and vicinity,
that they have opened an Hospital
for the treatment of all Surgical and
other diseases.
This new enterprise meets want
that has long been felt in this COM
munity, where large number Of un-
married men, sick or wounded, away
from home, will find all the comforts
of warm rooms, good, clean beds,
proper food, good nursing, careful at
tention and skilful treatment of ex-
perienced Physicians and Surgeons.
The Hospital is managed on the Co
operative plan, at present. Those
wishing to receive its benefits pay
from SO to Sc per year in advance,
and II taken sick or injured any time
during the year, they will be taken
care of, boarded and treated without
any further charge.
The rates charged are so moderate,
compared with the benefits received,
that this Hospital must commend it.
self to the public as soon as it shall
be thoroughly understood.
Arrangements are made that one Of
the Doctors will he on duty night and
day. when required by one or more
patients.
DR.. Maiden's great experience as a
Surgeon during our late war, the last
year of which he had charge of q
large Military Hospital, together with
over twenty years practice, cannot be
questioned In it's success.
DR.. Newton, although younger, has
had large Hospital experience, and
has particularly devoted a good por-
ton Of his time to the study of dis
eases of the Eye and Ear.
We would respectfully solicit the
earnest support of this enterprise, es-
pecially by those whom it is most in
tended to benefit.

Long Lake Dam.
EDITOR OF ARGUS:

EDITOR OF ARGUS:
Dear Sir In last weeks issue of
the Pioneer there appeared q statement
in regard to my dam, which is such a
gross Misrepresentation Of facts as to
require no reply, as any resident Of the
Long Lake region who has ever seen
the dam, or knows anything about the
raise and fall of water in Long Lake,
we'll knows that the article was simply
written for effect in other parts Of the
county, where people may judge from
what they read. We, who have always
taken a pride in the fact that the banks
of Long Lake are high and dry, are
astonished at such statement. Now
the Pioneers statement would lead a
stranger TO think that the land sur
rounding Long Lake is q low, swampy
country, over 1000 acres of which, in
case the dam remained, would be over
flowed, roads flooded, and even cause
some houses to be vacated, which state
ments are all without foundation, save
in the imagination Of the party who
invented the article referred to. The
facts are briefly these: 1 have built a
dam on my land, over half a mile be-
low the foot of Long Lake, in direct
line, and nearly three-fourths of mile
by the channel Of the creek. The dam
is at the head Of the rapids, and is not
over three feet in height, with sluice.

figures. They show that the average
product of human industry was 1925
per annum for each inhabitant in 1880
against Sill per annum in 1870. They
also show in a striking manner how
effectually our protective tariff pre-
vents the accumulation Of wealth.

The New York Tribune has the
following sensible remarks, which go
to the point on a matter of some inter-
est, to newspaper men at least: GA
newspaper is business enterprise, and
must be conducted on business princi-
piles. Men are constantly asking favors
from newspapers, which means a sac
rifce Of space representing money,
who would never dream of asking
lawyers to take cases without fees, or
expect doctors to take their pay in
thanks. The deadhead is disappear
ing FROM other departments of business
life, and the newspaper deadhead,
distinguished though he may be must
follow. A newspaper being a business
enterprise, must live in a business way.
