About twenty-five settlers on Bots
Blame Island came oyer Tuesday to see
Butler.
The workmen to set up the tow Y. - 'or
the light on the pier, arrived yes lay
and commenced work this mornir s.
The Republicans are we'll pleased with
the ticket put in the field by their Dem
ocratic opponents. II the Democrats
like it, everybody should be pleased.
1t is a grave question in dispute be-
tween the Democrats and Greenbackers
as to which party was the biggest hog
in their demands in regard to the ticket
yesterday.
II. Chambers requests us to say that
he positively declines being candidate
for the Office Of County Treasurer. He
was nominated by the Greenbaek con-
vention contrary to his wishes.
The ladies of Cheboygan and vicinity
should all be interested in Miss Emily
Elliott's millinery opening next We'd
nesday and Thursday. During her re-
cent visit to Chicago she purchased an
elegant line of goods, and is anxious to
show them to the ladies. See her adver-
tisement.
Wedding cards are ont for the mar
riage OF Charles Ely, the we'll known
baker. to Miss Caroline Grimm, daugh-
ter of August Grimm. The ceremony
takes place this evening, at the resi-
dence of the brides parents. We wish
the happy couple fulfllment of all
their brightest hopes for the future.
Our Democratic friends, who tried to
win the affections of the Greenback
maiden by contributing literally to the
fund to secure Buffers visit, feel rather
sore after the severe repulse their ap-
pr0aches and prOtestatiOns of undying
affection received yesterday when the
hour for the wedding ceremony arrived.

Republican,
The nominations for candidates for
the several county offices have been
made by all parties. The tickets are
before the people for them to choose
whom they will have to serve them. The
Republicans only ask careful compar-

dates, and then want every elector to
vote for the candidate that will best
subserye the interests Of the people.
Amidst vast amount of bosh Mr..
Trevellick gave the workingmen some
good advice In his speech last night and
it would be to their profit to heed, and we
would like to see them act upon it.
ShOuidfthey do 80 we are confident

would be found voting the Republican
ticket regularly. The advice was to
