The county clerk and sheriff elect

ago, George won a colt of Lon on the
election of Cleveland. This year, Lon
won a colt of George on Harrison's

Jake Rowlee. Cleveland is ahead this
time, not Grover but Lon.
While Mr.. A. T. Anderson, the newly
elected county clerk, was at Paw Paw
celebrating the great republican victory,
his better half, not being able to incar-

shall be said: "She hath done what
she could"
Any quantity of wood will be taken
at the NORTHERNER office on subscrip-
ton, either past or future. One cord
of good body beech or maple, will pay
for the paper for one year, SO bring it
along. We don't say this because we
are in any particular need of wood; we
have lots of it, enough to last us all
winter, but we can turn it into cash
one of these days and by accepting it
in payment for the paper we can ac-
commodate a good many of our sub
scribers.
