THE MEN WITH THE PIG.
How The Landlord OF The Hotel Pat
the Boys on ~ Good scheme.

the Boys on a. Good scheme.
a few days ago two men, says the
Free Press, who were afterward found
to be Detroiters, arrived in a town
about fifty miles 10 the west of Detroit
leading pig 1t was perhaps big
enough and heavy enough To be call
ed a hog, but they termed 1t n pig,
and as they turned it over to the care
of the landlord at whose inn they pro
posed to rest for the night one Of the
men explained
'Be awful careful with that pig.
He's daisy new breed Just from
Scotland We've sold him to a farm
err out here for $50, and we don't want
anything to happen to him.
The landlord locked the pig up and
then began TO think and cogilato and
suspect When the strangers had
gone to bed he called in some of the
boys, and said
1--WE twigged the racket them two
fellows are sharpers, and that's agues
sing pig. Tomorrow they will give
you a chance to guess at his weight at
| 10 cents a guess and you'll I've cleaned
out--only you won't! AS the fellows
sleep we will weigh then pig and beat
their game.
Nobody slept until the pig was
taken over TO the scales and weighed.
He pulled down no pounds to q hair,
and the villagers went home and hunt
ed up their nlckels, and dreamed of
pigs, and scales and sharpers through
| the remainder Of the night.
Next morning the pig was led
around in front, and before starting
off on his journey one Of the owners
remarked TO the assembled crowd:
Gentlemen, I'm going to weigh
this pig directly. May be some Of you
would like to guess on his weight
/ I'll take all guesses at 10 cents each.
and whoever hits it gets fifty cents.
This provoked large and selected
stock OF winls and smiles, but no one
walked up until the Pig man said that
any one person could guess as many
times as he cared to, provided dime
accompanied each guess Then a rush
set in. Three or four merchants put
/ up 20 guesses each. a lawyer said
about twenty would do for him Be
/ fore there was any let up in the guess
\ ing about six hundred had been reg
istered aud paid for Every soul Of
EN- guessed at no pounds II was
curious what unaDimity there was ~
the guessing, but the pig men didn't
seem to notice it. When all had been
given a chance the pig was led to The
scales, and 10 his weight was exactly
ia pounds
You see, gentlemen explained
| the spokesman. while tins animal
only weighs no pounds along about
II o'clock tonight, we feed him about
i've pounds OF corn meal in the morn
ing before weighing You forgot
to take this matter INTO consdera-
ton p
Then somebody kicked the land
lord, and he kicked the Justice and
the Justice kicked merchant, and
when the pig men looked back from a
distant hlll the whole town was out
] kicking itself and throwing empty
wallets into the river.

Ar the election last Monday, Hugh
II. McVcigh, for clerk, carried Scott,
Dead Timber Lake, Golden Lake,
Carson Lake, Swaync, Clear Lake,
East Big Lake, West Big Lake,
Chickasawba, Hickman and Canadi-
an-elcvcn out of fifteen precincts.
He says he accomplished the task by
dint OF hard work, and by having
the truest, best friends in the world,
who never "let up" in their work
for him, and who wouldn't scare
worth a cent. All Hugh has to do
now is to be as true to the people
as they were to him, and we are
confident that he will be as much Of
a success as a clerk, as he was rs a
candidate.
The Osceola times., 1884-09-06

By reference to the Election re-
turns it will be seen that the repub-
lican vote in this county IS nc lon
ger TO be ignored, and it is sheer
folly for the democrats to put out a
number Of candidates in the field
and expect to elect them all, or even
one. with a divided vote. The rep
ublicans are thoroughly organized,
never split on the state or national
ticket, or even on the county ticket,
when a good opportunity to put in
their man presents itself. The state
ticket, as will be seen, received a
democratic majority of only las.
Tins fact points out the danger, as
well as the duty of all good demo-
Gratis, and the work in store for
them two'years hence.
The Osceola times., 1884-09-06

As A rule, successful politicians,
like successful men in all other pro-
fession or calling, are those who be-
gin at the bottom and work up. Men
who are not fitted, either by nature
or education, who enter the political
arena at the top, are sure to land at
the bottom there is is no other
place for them to land. The sudden
elevation gives them a sort o swim
min of the head.

PLAYING "Boss Combinator is
no doubt a very fascinating little
political diversion, but the chances
are about as twenty to one against
those who indulge in tins pernicious
pastime, getting publicly rebuked,
besides slaughtering those whose
interest they would promote. Hon
esty and fair methods are the safest
guides. The voters are down on
combinations and trickery, and will
never fail to so express themselves
through the ballot box when they

THE INQUEST
Upon the Remains of the Dead
Infant Now in Progress.
Celia Myers Refuses to Testify, and Ia
Released From Imprisonment
Details OF the Case.

Coroner Leininger returned to the
city Tuesday evening, and Wednesday
morning Justice Hudson turned the In
quest, upon the remains of the dead In
fnnt, f0nn upon the Peters premises,
over TO tho former About
four o'clock Wednesday afternoon
Coroner Leininger began the Inquest
In Justice HudsOn's office. A number OF
witnesses were examined and their testi-
mony In the main cOrresponded with the
accounts Of the affair given In the DEMO
GRAFT Tuesday and Wednesday. In the
testimony II was elected that DR., ID. A.
Arter had treated Celia Myers, when
che was lying Ill at the Peters resi-
dence.
When Cecilia Myers was called TO the
stand she gave her name and stated that
her home was In Canton, but stopped
there, saying that she had been advised
by her attorney not to answer any ques'
tiOne.
II seems that George IL. Baldwin,
Esq, called 10 see Mrs. Myers at the city
prison Wednesday morning and that II
was upon his advice that she absolutely
refused 10 answer any questions, A
written statement TO that effect was
signed by her. The inquest was ad-
iOurned at about 5A5 o'clock until
Thursday morning and Mrs, Myers was
returned to the city prison.
This morning Mrs. Myers was 70.
leased from imprisonment, the Coroner
receiving legal advice that he could not
hold her az q witness. The inquest was
proceeded with and was yet In progress
this afternoon.
Policeman ROmey, who was called TO
view the remains OF the infant when
first found, and requested TO notify the
authorities, says he reported the case 10
Mayor Piero, which official instructed
ROmey TO notify old man Peters TO bury
the body, Mayor Plero says II was n
case for the Coroner or Justice OF the
Peace, aud not for the Mayor,
The publication OF the facts In this
case In the DEMooRAT, and the subse.
quent action taken by the authorities
has created great interest througout
tho city, aud Is general theme
for conversation,

VERDICT OF ABORTION
In the Late Cecilia Myers Infant
Case.
Another Specimen Of the "0ld Reliable
ReposItory's" Customary So.
Called Enterprise.

The following verdict was rendered
by Coroner Lelninger To day In the case
OF the prematurely born infant found
buried on the premises Of John Peters
on South Market street, as pointed out
by the DEMOCRAT last week.
CANTON, Sept. 10th, 1884.
After careful investigation and hear
Ing the testimony, do llnd that the do
ceased, male f@Gus, came 10 lts death
from premature birth. In my opinion
said birth was wilfully caused, In some
manner, by one Celia Myers, mother OF
the child, whose present residence Ia to
me unknown.
A. LEININGER, Nj. D., Coroner.
In connection with this verdict, II
may be mentioned that the "0ld unre.
liable Repository" Ia up to its ancient
enterprising tricks again, and yesterday
published what purported TO be the
C0roner's verdict In the case. when no
verdict had yet been given by the Cor
0ner.
The following ia what appeared In the
Rep: Coroner Leininger rendered his
verdict TO day In the case OF the body OF
an infant found on the premises Of John
Peters, In South Market street. The
verdict Ia to the effect that an abortion
was performed, but at whose instiga-
tlon, or by what person accomplished,
the evidence given at tho inquest does
not indicate"
This Is II fair sample Of the style Of
enterprise the Rep. usually treats its
readers to, and u motion will now be In
order awarding to II leather medal for
being the boss liar.
