a saloon Victory.

The great majority of the people of
this vicinity are foolish enough to think
that our town has been fully as well off
since the closing of the saloons on the
7th day of May as il was when the
liquor shops were in full blast and
drunken men were to be found on every
corner.
The NoRTHERNER had hoped that
the present desirable state of affairs
was To continue, but our common coun-
Gil, in its wisdom (?), has determined
otherwise. At a meeting of that body
held last Monday evening, the amount
of bonds of liquor sellers was fixed at
the minimum-S3, 000-and the bond of
one Van Antwerp, who proposes TO
open saloon in the Dyckman House,
was virtually accepted, with Geo. w.
Longwell and Richard Setchfield as
sureties, although final action was de-
layed on account of verbal inaccuracy
i'm the instrument. This action of the
board did not meet with dissenting
vote, but Trustees Snow and Northrop
were not present.
The board was assured that so, 900
bonds would compel the closing of the
house Whether such would have been
the result or not, the NoRTHERNER re-
grets that the board did not say 81, 900
and let il close. If a hotel cannot run
without a saloon attachment, then the
hotel ought to close, and if the town
cannot get along without rumshops,
then let the town die.

4 Timely Advancement,

A new time table, printed in another
column of this paper, went into effect
on the narrow gauge last Thursday.
There are now two trains each day that
make the round trip between Lawton
and South Haven. The morning train
leaves Paw Paw for South Haven at
5:35, arriving at the latter place at 7:25;
returning, it leaves South Haven at
7:40, arriving at Paw Paw at 9;25 and
at Lawton at $40, where it connects
with the mail train east and the local
passenger west, which pass at Lawton
at 9:45. This is very convenient ar
rangement for persons along the line of
the road, giving them an opportunity
to make close connections on the Cen
tral both east and west, and TO visit Kala-
mazoo and return home on the after
noon train, which runs on the same
time as heretofore, leaving Lawton at
/ 80.

Paw Paw Marble and Granite Works.

People are beginning to find out that their
money will go much further in buying gran
ite and marble in Paw Paw than at any
other place, comparisons having been so
often made. Our trade for 1887 was the
largest for II years. Our stock is complete
and is the largest of any in this part of the
country, not excepting Kalamazoo. We keep
so finished monuments on hand, of all kinds,
so our friends can bee for themselves what
they like, and from 10 to % per cent lower
than at any other place; 30 don't fail TO call
here before you buy, and show your appreci-
alton of our efforts to show you q large col
lection. Granite from Scotland, Germany,
Sweden and New Brunswick, besides all of
our handsomest American marbles.

Whenever Lawyer Tabor is employed
to defend a criminal, he devotes good
deal of his time to advertising the
NORTHERNER, for which service il is
profoundly grateful. OF course he does
il i'm rather backhanded way and
works asSiduOusly, but unsuccessfully,
to induce jurors to say that they didn't
believe its statements or that they take
little or no stock in the paper. As the
NORTHERNER is "a newspaper and gives
its readers full and correct accounts of
all local happenings and is widely read,
Brother Tabor has an excellent oppOr-
tunity to spread himself" in this direc-
ton, an opportunity that he never lets
slip. The NORTHERNER consoles itself
with the fact that its statements are, to
put it mildly, regarded rs fully as relia-
bic rs the statements of Attorney Tabor.
Frank Thomas rs Il railroad conductor
is brilliant success and everybody
likes him, but rs detective he is an
equally brilliant failure. The other
day he received communication ask
ing him To keep his weather eye open
for an escaped criminal. He did so,
and his eagle glance rested upon Canon,
the man who was shot at Lawton, and
he made sure that he had struck his
man He followed him around in the
early morning until his doubts were all
removed, and then rushed to the jail
and awoke Sheriff Todd out of his
morning slumbers to assist him in max
ing the arrest. Telling the sheriff that
the man was behind his-the sheriff's-
barn, they circled around and closed in
on poor, harmless Canon. The joke
was on Frank; he didn't want it known,
but it got out just the same. Canon
said he thought Frank was an emissary
from Lawton in the interest of Sneed,
trying to get an opportunity of putting
him out of the way so that he could not
testify on the trial of the case. Frank
has not yet received the offered reward
for the capture of the escaped criminal.

Not Guilty.

The court was engaged on Monday
and until 2:30 p. m. on Tuesday, in the
trial of VIM. Sneed for shooting Cor
nelius Canon at Lawton on the Goth
of April last, full account of which
was published in the NoRTHERNER at
that time. The defence was that Canon
assaulted Sneed with Il club and that
the shot was fired in self defense. The
jury evidently took this view of the
case or, at least, had reasonable
doubt of the guilt of the accused and
took but a short time to render YER
diet of not guilty.
No other business was transacted and
the court adjourned until Monday,
June 25th, at 1870 Il. m.
