Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1883-01-03

We have already stated that we do
not vouch for the railway news that
has been published at various times,
and neither will we vouch for the fol-
lowing weather predictions taken from
"The Weather Indicator" a journal
published at Ashville, st. Clair county,
Alabama. We have no objection to
the weather man making his predic-
tons, and we have no objections to
any one believing them. We don't.
We don't believe that any man can
tell what the future weather will be,
with the exception that it is safe to
predict cold weather with snow and
ice in winter, and warm weather in
July. The weather for district 10, of
which Alpena forms a part, is given
as follows for the present month:
1st to Sth, cold; 9th to 10Th, cold
cr, warmer; 18th to 18th, intensely
cold; 18th to Dist, warmer to colder
22nd to oath, warmer; Goth to 3lst,
colder.
Coolest intervals, I'd, 18th, 9th, Sth
to 18th, 18th to 10Th, DIST, 25th, Goth,
with snow about Sd to 9TH, 10th, 18th,
18th to 18th, goth. oath to 3lst.
This month will be a good one for
ice men, pork packers aud lumbermen
in the Lake regions, if not too cold.
At night the temperature in the far
northwest, will be below zero as usual.
Along the Lake States it will be cold
enough for all purposes. There will,
in all probability, be plenty Of snow
to sled logs about Marquette and
neighboring regions. The SHOWS of
December are usually sufficient for
this purpose, and there is no likeli-
hood Of there being any thaw of such
character as to disturb what is on the
ground. In the northern districts,
with the exception Of thawing during
the day, more than compensated by
the low temperature at night, the ice
fields of December and January will
be preserved intact, In the west, pork
killing might be riskcd almost at any
time, but this fact was settled, perhaps
in December.

The Sun.
NEW YORK, 1888.

More people have read the sun during the year
Just now passing than ever before since 1t was first
printed, No other newspaper published on this
side of the earth has been bought and read in any
year by so many men and women.
We are credibly informed that people buy read
aud like the Sun for the following reasons, among
others
Because its news columns present in attractive
form and greatest possible accuracy whatever has
interest for humankind; the events, the deeds and
msdeeds, the wisdom, the philosophy, the notable
folly the solid sense, the improving nonsense-all
the news of the busiest world ut present revolving
in space.
Because people have learned that in its remarks
concerning persons and affairs the sun makes II
practice of telling them the exact truth 20 the best
of its ability three hundred and siXty-fvc days in
the year, before election as well as after about the
whales well as about the small fish, in the face
OF dissent os plainly and fcarlessly as when sup
ported by general approval Tho sun has absolute
y no purposes TO serve, save the information of
its readers and the furtherance of the common
good
so humble that the Sun is Indifferent 10 his welfare
and his rights No man is so rich that il can allow
injustice to be done him. No man, no association
of mel is powerful enough TO be exempt from the
strict application Of its principles of right and
wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for dozen years,
without intermisson and sometimes almost alone
among newspapers, the fight that has resulted in
the recent overwhelming popular verdict against
Robesonism and for honest governments. No mat
ter what party is in power, the Sun stands and
will continue 20 stand like rock for the interests
of the people against the ambition OF bosses, the
encroachments of monoposts, and the dishonest
schemes of public robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily by our
friends One man holds that the Sun is the best re-
ligious newspaper published, because its Chris
tianity is undiluted with cant. Another holds that
1t is the best Republican newspaper ever printed
because il has already whipped half of the rascals
out of that party, and is proceeding with the other
half with unlimited yigor. third believes it 60
be the best magazine of general literature in exist
ence because its readers miss nothing worthy of
notice that is current IN the world of thought So
every friend of the Sun discovers one of its many
sides that appeals with particular force TO his indi
vidual liking.
If you already know the Sun you will observe
that 1883 il is little better than before. If
you do not already know the sun you will find il TO
be n mirror of all human activi y, storohouse of
the choicest products of common sense and iInugi-
nation, mainstay for the cause of honest govern
ment, sentinel for genuine Jeiftrsonian Democrat
cy, n scourge for wickedness of every species, and
an uncomonly good investment for the coming
year
