The roller skating se"sOn was auspiciou sly
opened last evening at the Capitol rink, the
occasion being the appearance of Durfee and
Motlit combination of bcyclists and roller
skaters. The evening was cool aud just fitted
for glide on the rollers. There was large
audience present to witness the performances
which, it is needless to say, fully met the ex-
pectation of those present. The clog dancing
of Master Hiram and the Westbrook, Bros,
bicyclists, called forth much well merited
applause.

The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1884-10-23

Mr.. j. K. Kidder of Lawrence, who has
Just returned from visit in New York,
thinks the electoral vote of that state is sure
for Blaine and Logan.
The rain on Thursday morning last kept
many of our citizens from attending the
mass meeting at Decatur. Nevertheless there
were quite number present and enough
mounted men accompanied by the band TO
make respectable show.
Our pomological department was increased
the other day by a fine display of apples from
the orchard of Joseph Rogers of Waverly
We had the curiosity to take the dimen-
sions of one-a Northern Spy-and found il
to be 1919 inches in circumference and IL
ounces in weight Almost as large as the
O0urier'S famous strawberry.
The fusionists procured Mr.. Yaple to speak
at Lawton OH the same afternoon that the
republicans held their mass-meeting at De
catur, evidently Nth the intention of keep.
ing people from going to hear Mr.. Hiscock
Nearly all of Lawton was at Decatur, just
the same, and considerable number of those
whom they took from this place on their free
train, deserted them at Lawton and went
with the crowd.
While the mailbag was hanging on the
crane near the track at the depot last We'd
nesday, awaiting the afternoon train, some
one stole it, carrying it to the lumber yard,
where it was found few moments after
rifed Of its letters. The man in charge was
in sight of IL at the time, but engaged, and
had no thought of robbery. 1t is not known
how much the thieves D0lcagidt

Board or Supervisors.

The time of the supervisors during the
first week of the session was, as usual, largely
occupied in committee work. The auditing
committee seem to have made the most his
tory, large number of claims having been
passed upon and adjusted.
A resolution was adopted authorizing the
clerk TO dispose of the worthless books and
documents that have accumulated in and
about his Office.
The committee on comparing rolls report
ed their work completed.
The committee on footing rolls reported
the aggregate assessed valuation of the coun-
ty at $13,272,415.
A resolution was adopted to have certain
rooras fitted up in the new county house for
the use of such insane persons as cannot be
accommodated at the asylum.
The report of the committee on equaliza-
ton was adopted, the equalized valuation of
the county being placed the same as last
year, at $13,000,000. The changes made in
the valuation of townships as compared with
last year are as follows: Antwerp, deducted
$4,000; Bangor, deducted $4,000; Colum-
bia deducted $4,000; Hartford, added S1O-
600; Keeler, added $1,000; Lawrence, added
$4,000; Paw Paw, added $4,000; Porter,
deducted $4,000; Waverly, added $4,000.
The sum of 300 was voted to the Van
Buren county agricultural society.

TIxE DECATUR MASS MEETING. !.
Anfmmense Crowd o9People, anda
Great Success.

The republican mass-meeting at Decatur
on Thursday last was the largest political as
sembly that has been held in our county
since the famous Grant campaign in 1868.
The morning was ushered in with thunder
storm, followed by drizzling rain, which
continued until the middle of the forenoon,
and the prospect for a successful meeting
was gloomy indeed But, notwithstanding
the unfavorable weather there was an inn
mense crowd in attendance, estimated at
from 5000 to 1000 people. The parade,
which was necessarily delayed on account of
the late arrival of the various delegations,
consisted of clubs of plumed knights, mount
ed and on foot, a wagon-load of young ladies
clothed in white, representing the different
states, drawn by 12-horse team, wagons
representing protection and free-trade, etc.,
etc. A noticeable feature of the procession
was number of ladies on horseback and in
uniform. The afternoon procession con-
tanned $500 people, and the entire route over
which it marched was lined with enthusiastic
spectators, whose hearty cheers greeted those
who participated in the parade all along the
line. The torchlight procession in the even
ing was magnificent spectacle, such as is
seldom witnessed in a country village.
The address in the afternoon by Hon.
Frank Hiscock of New York, was mastery
production, and was heartily and enthusias-
tically applauded. His arguments in favor
of protection were unanswerable, and met
with many manifestations of approval from
the vast audience that listened to them.
Cheer after cheer rent the air when he re-
viewed the past record of the democratic
party, but the climax was reached when be
turned toward MIR. Burrows who was sitting
near him, and spoke in glowing terms of his
record in congress and of his name and fame
throughout the nation. So great was the
applause at this point that the eloquent ora
tor was compelled to stop speaking until the
cheering ceased. At the close of Mr.. His
cocks address the audience were clamorous
for Burrows, and when he arose to speak he
was greeted with perfect ovation. AS he
was to speak in the evening he made but a
few brief remarks but what he said served
to raise him still higher in the estimation of
his friends. After the procession in the
evening he addressed the assembled multi
tude more at length, making one of the finest
speeches ever listened to by q Van Buren,
county audience.
This grand success, in spite of untoward
circumstances, shows that the republicans of
Van Buren, county and of the 4th congress
sional district are wide-awake, and will roll
up an old-time republican majority on the
4th OF November.
