, by the foregoing statement it will be seen
that SS5,953 of the loan due after December 81,
1886, has been purchased under the authority
OF an act Of the last General Assembly. A
larger amount would have been purchased,
out the holders of the loan refused to accept
tne terms that could be offered by the Fund
commissioners,
There is yet due the sinking fund to reim-
burse it for loans made to the general revenue
fund the sum of SIT ,35a.70. The favorable
CONDITION Of the general revenue fund is such
that this balance due the sinking fund should
now be transferred to it. The policy of using
the surplus revenue in the purchase of the
loan due after December 81, 1856, should be
continued.
The funded debt is now so much reduced as
to enable the State, by wise financial action.
TO pay with ease and without any increased
burden to the taxpayer the entire amount by
the year 1891, as contemplated by the trainers
of the Constitution.

County Fair.

The board of directors of the Cheboy-
gan County Agricultural Society held a
meeting this week, and SGT the time for
holding the annual fair for Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, September oath,
25th and Goth. The various committees
were appointed to make the necessary
arrangements for the fair. We trust
Cheboygan county farmers will take in
serest enough to do all they can to make
the exhibition success. There is no
reason why, with tho abundant crops of
all kinds this season, the fair should not
prove The most successful held in the
county, ii not in northern Michigan.
The fact that all cannot obtain premi-
um should deter no one from taking a
part in the exhibit, and thereby contrib
ute to the success Of the society. 1t is
decidedly farmers institution, and
every farmer should take sufficient pride
in it to do all in his power toward max
ing it what it should be, and what it
can be made If all will do their duty.
The officers of The society Will do their
part and we trust farmers will do theirs.

Base Ball Match,

The third encounter between the Dia-
mOnd base ball club of ChebOygan, and
the st. Ignace club took place at Mack
mac Islandslast Friday resulting in a
victory for the Diamonds by q score of
"a to %. The Chsboygan boys say they
had an uphill game, having to play not
only against the st. Ignace nine, but the
entire crowd of spectators, the latter
manifesting their sympathy for the st.
Ignace boys in most marked manner
aid at times in way not creditable to
their good breeding. The st. Ignace
papers are bowling about an imported
pitcher. The facts of the mat
ter are that when the time came to start
they found they were short one man,
but rather than disappoint the st. Ig-
mace club they decided to go
and play with only eight men and
did not expect anything diffsrant until
they arrived att Mackinaw City, where
they met a gentleman who ascsrtaining
the condition Of affairs volunteered his
services and did pitch for them for four
innings and judging from the result it
would probably have been better for the
st. Ignace club had ho continued to do
SO, but fortunately for the Diamonds
they put in Bert Conrad, one of their
regular pitchers and the result W as, not
withstanding the boys from the city
across the straits piled up twelve runs
in the second inning, the Diamonds won
the match. The boys speak in the high
est terms of their treatment outside of
the game, by the members of the st. Ig-
mace club.

Republican Mass Meeting.

All should remember the Republican
mass meeting at the Town Hall tonight.
The committee was particularly fortu-
nate in securing Robert 4. Frazer to
open the campaign in this county. His
reputation as campaign orator is ex-
ceeded by but few speakers in the coun-
try, and the issues of the campaign will
be presented by him in an interesting
and foreible manner. Turn out and lis

riage with Burroughs H. BegOle, former
~ of Cheboygan, but now one of the en-
terprising business men of Beatrice,

ing. Owing to the recent sad affection
in the family of the bride the marriage
was very quiet one, only few of the
intimate friends and relatives being
present. IL was the expressed wish of
the late father of the bride that there
should be no postDonement of the cere-
mony, the arrangements for which had
been made prior to his confinement.
The bride and groom are both we'll
kaOwn in our village, and were general
fayorites with all, and hosts of devoted
friends hope for glowing future for the
united pair. They took the train the
same evening for Chicago, where a few
DAYS would be spent, af sr which they
would leave for their home in the west.
We congratulate the people of Beatrice
on the acquisition of so accomplished a
lady, and hope she may find as many
warm friends in her new home as she
leaves behind her ia Cheboygan.
