The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1885-05-07

In view of the unfortunate situation of tax
matters in this state on account of the equal
division of the supreme court on the ques-
ton of the constitutionality of the law, the
legislature adopted a resolution which was
approved by the governor, directing the aud
itor general to suspend the tax sales for the
current year, until such time as the legisla-
ture may direct, either by resolution or stat
nte. In conformity with this resolution all
tax sales throughout the state were accord
ingly suspended. The Legislature will try
and remedy this state of affairs before a final
adjournment. They will do exceedingly
well If they find legal way out of the diff
Guilty. 1t is very doubtful if any lawful
method can be devised, by which payment of
tbe delinquent taxes of 1882, can hereafter
be enforced. The better way, it seems to us,
would have been to permit the sales to 90
on, and let the people realize what they could
therefrom. In such case a large proportion
of the tax would, doubtless, have been col
lected. AS il is, there is little hope of any
thing better, il indeed, the whole amount is
not lost.

The DARING robbery of an express car in
Indiana, resulting in the murder of the ex-
press messenger, the serious wounding of
the baggage master and the escape of the
murderer, shows that it is not alone in law
less southern and western communities that
such crimes can be successfully carried out.
Surely some means can be devised to prevent
such outrageous crimes. When men cannot
travel by rail through populous civilized
country without danger of being robbed and
murdered, it is high time that effective meas
ures should be adopted for the better protec-
ton of their lives and property. If it is
placed on every train with instructions to
"let no guilty man escape"

The Secret of Wealth.

Broken down invalids, do you wish to
gain flesh, to acquire an appetite, to enjoy a
regular habit of body, to obtain refreshing
sleep, TO feel and know that every fibre and
tissue of your system is being braced up and
renovated. If so, commence at once q
course of GOLDEN SEAL BITTERS.
In one week you will be convalescent. In
a month you will be well. Don't despair
because you have weak constitution.
Fortify the body against disease by purifying
all the fluids with GOLDEN SEAL
BITTERS. No epidemic can take hold of
a system thus forearmed. The liver, the
stomach, the bowels, the kidneys, are
rendered disease proof by this great in
vigorant. Ruinous bills for medical attend
ance may be avoided by counteracting the
first symptoms of sickness with these
Bitters. They are recommended from friend
to friend, and the sale increases daily. We
warrant cure. They are positive cure
also for all female complaints. In these
diseases they have no equal. Take no
others. Sold by

Whitelaw Reid, the distinguished editor
of the Ne,o York Tribune, says: 1.-The local
paper is the best read paper in the world.
All the city papers cannot supply the place
of the home paper. No other contains the
marriages and deaths, to say nothing of
divorces and births. No other paper gives
the time for the next ball, picnic or political
meeting; no other publishes the roll of
honor of the public schools; no other dis
cusses the affairs of the town and county, or
gives in detail the local news, which cannot
be obtained from any other source. Every
body reads it, and this is why the local
paper is the best read in the world

few drunken rowdies paraded our streets
Saturday evening, much to the annoyance of
some of our citizens. Among other depre-
dations they took the large card sign from
the door of l.. 8. Russelrs justice Office and
destroyed it. Mr.. II. does not care for the
value of the property destroyed, but will
pay $500 in cash for evidence that will lead
to the conviction of the trespassers. If we
are rightly informed our village Jail should
have been made use of on the night in

Gov. ALeER by special message has called
the attention of the legislature to the neces-
sity of an "advisory board TO whose iudg-
ment shall be submitted matters pertaining
TO the pardoning of criminals from our pen
al institutions. The travesties on justice
that have been enacted in our state within a
few years past, by reason of fragrant abuse
of the pardoning power, are sufficient reason
for some kind OF wholesome legislation on
the subject.

for those who have died of o communicable
disease, should as certainly forbid all those
needless attentions which facilitate the spread
of disease. The number of attendants upon
the sick should in any case be as small AZ
possible, and SO far as may be should consist
of those whose personal ties are the fewest,
and whose ordinary duties are the lightest.
Especially should this be the rule as concern
ing those who go into the presence of COM
municable disease. The we'll children in the
house, for their own sake and for the sake of
others, should, to the farthest extent possible,
be removed from contact with the diseased (;
and those persons who pay attention to tie
sick, or to the bodies of the dead, should
ever remember that the utmost caution is
needful as they 90 thence into contact with
the living and the well. As the physician
should be an autocrat, SO his advice should
be sought and followed to the letter when
ever he announces the existence of danger /;
and if this be done the spread of disease
may be greatly restricted. Indeed, deem
this rule of more importance than any other
which occurs TO my mind Any seeming
harshness in the enforcement of wise sani-

am impelled by the result of extended
observation, TO add, in a single sentence in
closing, two further suggestions. The con-
sciences of the people need to be instructed
upon the subject we are considering. 1t
should become matter of duty with all
to use those safeguards which the authorities
ordain against the spread of disease. II is
true in every human relationship that no
man lives unto himself. We are all parts of
one great body. The laws which we are
asked to obey for the sake of others are OBJ
served no less for our own sake. Their Oh
servance should not be dependent upon our
preference or inclination. The appeal comes
to us as concerning the right. But the con-
science can only be instructed as knowledge
upon the whole general subject is dissent
mated. Toward the spread of that knowi
edge we may all do something in our way
What our duty is limited at in the opening
of this paper. The state authorities are
powerless in the promises without the efforts
of local boards and local boards must be
powerless, or largely so, without the cooper
alton of all good citizens. We hail this con
vention as an omen of future good for our
city-good to be realized as the masses of
our people resolve that it shall be realized.

RECENT DECISIONS of the courts, resulting
in the conviction of prominent offenders,
followed by the prosecution of leaders in the
Mormon church, lead TO the hope that po-
lygamy, the "twin relic" is doomed. II will
be fortunate indeed, for this Nation, if
the strong arm of the law shall prove vigor-
Gus enough to crush out this great crime
which has too long disgraced our boosted
civilization.

The PUBLIC DEBT statement for the month
of April shows production of over S5,000,000.
This is very gratifying, especially in view of
the fact that the debt of nearly every Euro

the same period of time.

EDITOR NoRrHEESER:-I am glad to see your
criticism of the stenographer's bill. The bill was
sent to from our circuit and have not yet ex-
amined it critically, and your criticisms will help
when get to it, sent copy to our clerk to have
1t carefully examined, and l am much obliged to
you for the that you have seemingly given to
the subject. We will try and act to do justice
to all concerned. j. G. PAnKHURsT.
We do not wish to be understood as being
opposed to the bill as whole, but we think
it contains some Objectionable features. We
remember, for instance, that it cost the
people of Van Buren, county suit in the
supreme court TO avoid the payment of an
extravagant salary to stenographer who
was appointed under the provisions of a
statute quite similar to the one now pending
before the legislature.
