FOR HISTORY.

The older counties in the State are
having histories compiled. giving state
ments of their settlement and deyelon
nent by townships, with all matters
OF interest connected with their organ
ization. fhe founding of societi =. the
erection of public buildings, biogra-
phies OF the ear y settlers and officials.
etc. The historians i'm many instances
lind very great difficulty in procuring
sufficient data for the same from lack
of records.
We would suggest to the Grayline
Literary and Progressive society that
they appoint historian for Crawford
county. who shall keep record of all
matters that would be of probable in
terest hereafter. The short time since
the organization of the county would
render 1t comparatively easy to get
data for the past, and il kept up would
not be a matter Of great labor hereaf
ter, and its value can hardly be over
estimated. As the county becomes
more thickly settled the work could
easily be divided by townships, and
thus a complete record kept for future
reference.

COUNTY SEAT WAR.
A dispatch from Cadillac. dated A

A dispatch from Cadillac, dated April
4th, says:
Cadillac is to-day, for the first
time, the county seat of Wexford coun-
ty. For nine years n bitter contest
has ragged over the question. As the
county developed this city became the
center OF business and has long had a
majority OF the votes, but the resolu-
tlon TO remove the county seat could
never unit lately, get the two.thirds
vote required in the board of supervis-
ors. Sherman originally bad the coun-
W seat, and one year ago Cadillac yo-
ted to place it at Manton, a small rail
road station, in order TO get the coun-
ty seat In motion. At the annual cleo
ton, yesterday, the main question of
removal from Manton TO Cadillac was
submitted and carried by an immense
popular majority. This morning Sher-
i'll Dunham went to Manton, with a
special train and about 20 assistants.
To remove the county offices and re-
ports to this city, and was, while load
ing the county papers, attacked by
about 200 of Manton's inhabitants and
driven off. Several prominent citi-
zens who had volunteered to assist
were severely injured but not serious
~ The sheriff brought away all the
county property except the tive safes,
and telegraphed here for assistance. -.
On the arrival of his train with the
county officers and their property and
records, a force of over 3OO mon ~
sembled and returned to Manton.
Many citizens doubted the advisability
of going again, fearing serious trouble
but the boys felt sore over the treat
ment they had received and would not
acknowledge defeat. Before startins1
the second time Sheriff DunhsIn went
through the train and compelled all
revolve.'s to be left behind. The train \
pulled out amid the cheers of an i'm
mense crowd and the music of an ope-
ra troupe who volunteered to accompa-
ny them. The sin, riff ordered his men
I'd Use no unnecessary violence, to mo-
lest no ones private property, but TO
get the safes and no more. During the
delay Manton had rallied ut the coun-
ty building and intended to hold the
fort. but the sheriff's force effected
entrance by beating i'm the doors and
windows, and, although the fight was
sharp, 1t was short. No weapons were
used by the mob i'm possession of the
county building, except clubs and a
knife or two, and no serious cuts re-
ceived by the officers or men. Mr.. j.
II. Latone, who was piJched into the
building through window. got a cut |
III the arm from n knife. The sheriff |
succeeded in preventing any of his |
force from venting their anger OH the |
mob, though several of the victims of !
the tirst affray took care to get even /
with the particular strikers who had |
the ground with them before.
The entire property was finally secured
and at 2 p. IN. the special train arrived |
here all right. The city was out en-
lhasse To receive them, and the town
IL wild with excitement over the victo-
ry. Thus ends the worst county seat
light ever known In Michigan. Sher-
IN Dunham has won praise from all
Tor his cool action, and the manner in
which he avoided the serious results
which many felt to be inevitable.

The appointment Of Senator Teller to

he has authorized the statement hs has
accepted. will not meet the approval OF
the Gsnilss Of Utah. The Salt Lake
Tribune dsvotss some attention to his
probable confirmation, and says:
That Department 10 the n in which
the people Of Utah are most directly in

after the Mormon situation was fully
laid before the country. and after more
than thirty years OF steady defiance OF
the laws here In Utah. Senator Teller
has said that, In his judgment. there
was nothing here to call for the interior

Murray's act. the refusal to give an
alien an election certificate, was an out.
rage. and that II he were President be

The Tribune thinks that. notwithstand.

more satisfactory Secretary than Teller.
Should the above estimate OF the latte,

projected reformation In that Territory
