RETURNS RETURNING
From the Courier's Appeal in
behalf Of our Bachelors.

The mail that arrived last Sunday
brought the first returns from the sup
plication Of the Courier to eastern maid
ems in behalf Of Cooperstown's comely
celebates. The girls, with the noble
generosity so characteristic of their sex,
have responded nobly, and some of the
aforesaid bachelors already have numer-
GUS Introductory epistles to answer,
while one OF two have been slighted en-
tirely. The plan is evidently going to
work amazingly well and the Courier
feels jubilant over it's effort to alleviate
the lonliness Of its numerous bachelor
friends. However, we are forcibly re-
minded that our work was not complete
in detail. by the following austele letter
from fair Wolverine charmer:

An exchange with experience
enough to command respect, says
''stand by your town. A word against
your city depreciates the value of your
property and lnjures your business. 1t
takes money out of your purse. and
jeoparlizes the comfort, peace and hap
piness of your family. 1t drives trade
from your stores, drives the produce of
the country to other markets and leaves
your capital tied up and Improbable.
Stand by your town at all hazards, and
encourage settlement. Stand by each
other in the development of every inter-
est of the place. In union only, is there
strength
The door of our sanctum opened
cautiously, and the brilliant counte-
nance of youthful granger filled the
entrance. He hesitated for moment,
and then walked assuringly in, supple
menting his perambulations with the
pertinent query: us this a bank?" We
answered no, and directed him to the
Bank of Cooperstown, OH Burrell Avenue
Then we sat down and meditated; min
gled pride and chagrin characterized
our reflections as we hesitated before
deciding just what had led him to ask
that strange question. Was it our gem
orally wealthy and aristocratic appear
ance, OF the extreme voluptuousness
of our sanctum that provoked the query?
Then there came a sadder and more
| likely thought. He had been poking
fun at us, and We were forced to take
the only thing, except cold, that we
would ever think of refusing.
lin time of peace prepare for war. V
If the foregoing advice is applicable to
war, it will apply with even greater force
to natures element, fire. When fire is
properly controlled 1t is of great benefit
to mankind, but if left to it's own re-
sources it will work destruction to every
thing that comes in its way. In the
absence of fire it is time to get ready to
fight it. This town has been fortunate
about fires in the past, but that is no
good reason why we should not prepare
for emergencies in the future. Should
fire get a fair start at either end of our
town. a stiff breeze could easily carry it
to the other side with the loss of tllols-
ands of dollars. Should we not have
some bulwark of protection? Is it wise
for COOperstOwn to continue to take
suth risks as she has in the past when
with the outlay of a few hundred dollars
she can make herself more secure? Let
someone move in the matter of mutual
protection against this furious tiend ere
it is too late. In other words, let us bar
the door before the stock is stolen.

Stock Raising in the Northwest.

Stock Raising in the Northwest.
The fact has been thoroughly estab-
lished, that farming cannot be carried
on successfully, for a series of years,
where the attention is devoted to grain
growing exclusively. The variation in
seasons and i'll prices, the high rates Of
freight, the occasional damage from
drouths, floods, etc, keeps the farmer
who depends on grain alone III con-
stant state of uncertainty, and often
entails the loss of a whole seasons labor
and expense. Grain-growing should al
ways be accompanied with the raising
of cattle, horses. sheep or hogs; and as
the Northwest affords the best facilities
for the production of both grain and
live stock, it therefore follows that it is
the place for settlement.
The broad, boundless prairies of the
Northwest, covered with nutritious
grasses, with an abundance of pure
water, will. for years to come, furnish
a wide range of free pssturage. The
market advantages afforded by the var
ious railroads and their branches renders
the Northwest peculiarly adapted to this
branch Of industry. The even temper
ature, the pure, dry atmosphere, also
tends to tbs adaptability of this region
as stock-raising country.
The grasses of the prairies are known
to be extremely nutritious, and consist
of several varieties, among which may
be mentioned blue joint, red-stem, bunch
and buffalo grasses. and are fully equal
for hay and grazing purposes to the
timothy, clover, and other cultivated
grasses, and, it is said. for winter graz
ing, far excels tame grasses. These wild
grasses cut from one and half to three
tons per acre.
The raising of horses, mules, cattle,
sheep and hogs has engaged the atten-
tion of many farmers here, many of
whom are giving special care to the in
PRODUCTION of superior breeds. and are
meeting with good success. We have
no hesitancy in saying that Dakota and
this Great Northwest. with it's exhaust
less resources, with its wide range fl
pastllrage, clothed in luxuriant grasses,
is destined to become one of the fore
most stock-raising countries of the world.

JACKSON, MICH., Frbruary9.-A few min
utes after I O'Clock this evening Detective
Brown, of Jonesville. who has been en-.
gagged on the Crouch murder cases for some
time, and who has been operating in the
neiehborhood Of the Crouch fsrm, was shot
while returning TO the village OF Horton.
He was walking leisurely along about one
and halt miles north Of thu village when
he met two men in buggy. They stopped
and asked him if his name was Brown, and
upon replying in the affirmative one OF the
DC, uranis of the buggy placed revolver at
bis breast and fired. the ball entering not
lar from the heart, and lodging near
he shoulder blade. Blown fell and
be men drove rapidly away. The wound
ed man however, was able TO rise, and after
Srlking about one quarter OF q mile, two
young men from this city happened to be
.oing toward Horton In q buggy and con-
yeyed the detective to that place, where
the wound was properly cared for, end al
though the wound Is Q severe one 1t IL
thought it will not prove fatal. 1t Is re.
ported here tonight that Judd Crouch was
seen in the village OF Horton about dusk,
and brown thinks the man who shot him
looks very much like Judd. The most In.

and the people Of Horton and vicinity are
almost wild over the occurrence. Officers
