Alpena Juniors No. +.

A body of the laboring men of Al
pena, who claim to be working for the
interests of the laboring classes Of the
city, have organized new society
under the above title. Meetings to
be held once week, at the Ger
man Hall. The following has been
handed us for publication, and it tells
its own story:
1t is hereby agreed by the members
Of this society, which shall be called
the Juniors No. 1, that we will load
any boat that comes to Alpena, and
will work with any man on board of
boat, if he be hired by the captain,
mate or owner Of said boat, and it is
hereby understood that If any Of the
members of any other organization
refuse to work with the members of
this society, then We will henceforth
refuse to work with the members of
such organization. We believe this
to be free country, and the rights of
freedom should be enjoyed equally by
all-all working for the common good.
We expect to do what is right between
man and man, and at the same time
respect and abide by the laws of the
land in which we live. BY order of
the society. sq le

President,
JOHN &. MyER,

The Lawrence theatrical troupe
continued their entertainments all last
week, but met with poor success, aud
did not pay expenses. The following
plays were given: Alder Gulcb, Hazel
Kirke, M'Liss, Miss Moulton, Only a
Farmers Daughter, and the Hidden
Hand. They strove hard to please
what few patrons they had, and the
latter part Of the week acted very
creditably considering the number of
vacant seats before them. The troupe
made mistake in announcing q six
nights season. If they had announc-
eel for only tive. nights, and played
"Hazel Kirke" the first night, we are
inclined to the belief that they would
not have lost money, The "Hazel
Kirke" drama, in our opinion, was
equal to any played in this city, and
the company certainly represented il
in very creditable manner. Mr..
Rutledge took the leading part, and
the company admirably supported
him. The play is free from immorali-
ty; the spectator is not called ON to
sympathize with vice the plot is
good, and there is also considerable
fun lnterspersed through it. Some
of the scenes are highly dramatic,
and affecting, As regards Miss Law
renee, she is not q star, yet she is
capable actress.

Before the lastl ballot was taken,
Senator Logan requested his men to
support Blaine. In the afternoon of
the 9th, Logan was nominated as the
Republican candidate for the Vice
Presidency.
The following from the Free Press
will give a short account Of the two
candidates:
JAMES G. BLAINE.
James Gillespie Blaine was born at
Indian Hill farm, Washington coun-
ty, Pennsylvania, January 81, 1880.
He graduated from Washington Col
lege in 1847. In 1850 he went to
Kentucky and taught in the academy
at Blue Lick Springs. Here he met
Miss Stanwood, who afterwards be-
came his wife. In Il year or two he
returned to Pennsylvania, and studied
law, but never practiced In 1858
he removed to Maine, and became the
editor of the Kennebec Journal, and
subsequently of the Portland Adver-
tiser. In 1858 he was chosen a mem
Der of the Maine House of Represen-
tatives and was five times reelected,
serving in 1861 and 1862 as Speaker.
In 1862 he was elected n member of
the House of Representatives of the
Thirty-eighth Congress. He was re-
elected to the Thirty-ninth, Fortieth,
Forty-frst, Forty-second, Forty-third
and Forty-fourth Congresses, serving
as Speaker of the Forty-first, Forty
second and Forty-third. He was the
leading candidate before the Republi-
can National Convention in 1876 for
the nomination for the Presidency,
but was beaten by the field in the per-
son Of Hayes. In June of the same
year he was appointed to fill the seat
in the Senate vacated by Lot M. Nor
rill, who had been made Secretary of
the Treasury, and in 1877 was elected
by the Maine Legislature for the re-
mainder of the unexpired term and
for the full term ending Mar. 4, 1883.
In 1880 he was again candidate for
the Republican Presidential nomina-
ton. He was appointed Secretary of
State by President Garfield in March,
1881, but resigned after the death of
the President. With the stirring
events in his political career the pub
lie are familiar.
