er's illness, but he did not put in his ap-
pearance. 1t now transpires that he started
Immediately on receipt of the telegram for
Michigan, and his absence can not be ac'
counted for. 1t is feared that he is one of
the unfortunate victims of the late New

ticket. His relatives are doing everything
in their power to locate him.
Morrice Sentinel: Thursday evening
little incident occurred at the postoffice,
which gave some of our citizens consider
able uneasiness, for short time Yak
ley's store was locked for the night. Sub
sequently DR.. Green, who has an Office
over the store, heard noise below, and
knowing that the store had been closed,
reasoned that the store was beng bur-
glarized, and gave the alarm. Investiga.
ton revealed the fact that b. +. Ram.

postofiice, which is located in the store,

Saginaw Herald: The population OF the
Eighth Congressional district in 1884 was
1S9, ,2S5, which places it second IN the
State in point of population, the Grand
Rapids district being first with popula-
tion of 1872, ,440. In point of industrial
wealth, and in the extent of its diversified
industries, the eighth district stands at the
head of the eleven congressional district of
Michigan and in many respects it will be
more affected by the Mills free trade bill
than most of the others. For this reason
and many others, it ought to have repre-.
sentative in the next congress who will
not vote 10 strangle its interests ut the beck
of the free trade south. 1t ought 10 have
a man in congress who will not shame it
by his conduct. Everybody must remem.
Der what happened last summer when
Mayor Youmans, John A. Edget. Col.
Bliss. George w. Weadock, G. Stuart
Draper, Arthur Hill and others were ap-
pointed to 60 to Washington in the inter.
est of public building. The history of
that period is known to nearly every citi-
zen of Saginaw. and for the sake of the
city, district and all the friends concerned
the Herald drew veil over the scene that
Mayor Youmans and others contemplated
at the capital. 1t was on account of this
and other things equally unfortunate that
the entire delegation from East Saginaw
to the st. Louis convention opposed, from
first to last, Mr.. Tarsney's nomination.
These Democrats were ashamed Of all
this and of the repeated failures OF Mr..
Tarsney during the past four years, and
wanted to put an end to Tarsneyism.
They couldn't do 1t in convention, but
will assist in doing 1t next November by
the election of Col. A. r. Bliss, who is a
man of the character, calibre and business
ability needed to represent this great bust
ness district in Congress. Mr. Tarsney
will be spared by the people from violaf-
ing his anti-third term platform.
