THE TURKEY CARCASS.
The Time and Place to Eat 1t.

While some generally the car
ver) like the second joint, another
generally woman) will feel put
out il she is not allowed the Pope's
nose, that part of the bird which
acts as foundation to the tail
feathers and goes through the
fence last.
The tough drumstick is general
ly palmed off on a growing boy,
the carver meanwhile intimating
that it is only by a special dis
Pensation that such a choice piece
is allowed to one so young and in
nocent.
Some like white meat, some
black and plenty of people who
could be happy with either. take
both. To this scribe's nntion of
thinking, there is nothing so de-
licious about the bird, as the
mauled and mangled carcass of
the bird cold.
About midnight is the accepted
time for man to steal slyly off on
tip,toe to the pantry, where he
shuts himself in and by the light
OF a solitary candle, picks the tit
bits from the bones at leisure.
It requires several seasons OF
this experience of crevasing and
prospecting to be able to reach the
little pockets in the carcass where
the choice meat lies.
The old timer uses a fork in
preference to knife, not for any
feeling Of etiquette, but because
it is handler.
There you are all by yourself
where you have to observe mono Of
the nicities of the society table OBJ
servances, and you are master Of
the situation.
There are two little honey hol
lows along the loins of the fowl
that contains dark, sweet NOR
sci Of meat, about one good
mouthful ON each side, and they
should be lifted out tenderly and
skillfully, SO as not to mangle the
meat and leave the bone smooth.
Then along the back bone are
little ravines running up to the
| mountainous Justification In the
center, and here you will find
some "good washings" as the
miners say.
Then around the neck which
most people turn up their noses
at, you will encounter little spots
that pan out delicious morsels
under skillfull manipulation OF
the fork. No green hand can
have much success here, it re-
quires delicate touch Of the in
strument and some knowledge of
anatomy to succeed.
Then you turn the carcass over
and explore it inside. You will
find a row of bones that run out
from the back bone like the ribs
of a ship from the keel and in
these caveties are little morsels
that are devilish toothsome, /
tell you. About this time, If you
have not already done so, you
reach out your left hand and
grasping a wine bottle by he neck
lift it to your mouth and take a
long, strong pull mot drinking too
fast, let the juice of the grape |
gurgle down your throat while
you close your eyes and drift off |
int the land Of dreams.
But hist, there is a step soft and |
light across the floor, and placing |
the bottle out of sight, you cast /

JONES FOIs SHERIFF..

ED. JOURNAL while some of oul
county papers are showing up the
qualifications of various candidates ft l
the office of Sheriff, it is perhaps not
out OF place for us to present the claims
of N. S. Jones, of Middleton. Mr..
Jones has been member of the County
Central Committee for number OF
years and has been an active worker in
behalf of the Republican cause, and
his election by an overwhelming
majority in his own township last
Spring, is an indication of his popular
ity ut home. His petition for the
position of postmaster of his town was
signed by the Leading Republicans of
the place and indorsed by the highest
Republican officials in the county. His
standing as II staunch and true Repub-
lican is the very best.
His record as Il soldier is second to
none. He served in the 2lst O. V. V. |.
and with many of his comrades, was
captured ut the battle of Chicamauga
and was confined in rebel prison until
death would have been u welcome
guest in preference to the hardship
endured. Three times he made his
escape, the second time being almost
within reach of the Union lines, when
recapturcd and once more confined in
what seemed u veritable hell on earth.
Again he lead the escape and this
time, after enduring hardships which
seemed enough to overcome the strong
est frame and stoutest heart, succeeded
in reaching the Federal lines. He
was not long in reporting for duty,
however and served until the expira-
tion of The war. His bravery and
laithfulness to his country is not
doubted.
He has sufficient business ability and
is perfectly capable of managing the
business affairs of the office, and if
nominated there is not the man in
Wood county who can defeat him at
the polls.
We want him nominated because we
know him to be worthy and competent.

The Farmers Candidate.

ED. JOURNAL The endorsement of
j. ID. Halsey, for Probate Judge, by
the Lake township farmers, meets the
views of many of the Perrysburg town
ship farmers. We feel that the farm
ing interests should be recognized in
the politics of our county. and no one
is better capable of serving us than is
our candidate, Jack Halsey, who is
ably qualified in every respect, and if
nominated he will make the race and
come out IL winner. There is noGhing
that can be said against him in any
respect. No argument can be raised
that will show any reason why he
should not be nominated. The farmers
now have an opportunity to place on
the ticket one of the best men in the
county, and we earnestly hope and
believe they will unite in the several
townships and place before the people
Il representative of the bread producers
of the county. We do not wish to say
anything against any of the other
candidates, as we know them to be
worthy men, but we do think it time
for farmer to occupy an Office in the
Court house, and refer with pride
to the man we consider above all
others entitled to the Office of Probate
Judge, and in support of this measure,
will go to the convention prepared
to work for j. ID. Halsey.

Yours of the 9th inst. received, ask
ing if Deputy Sheriff G. w. Lenhart
was ever IL candidate on the Perry
Township Demoratic Ticket; if so, how
and why was it?"
| will reply, that IL numper of years
ago when he was young merchant ut
Mill Grove and not much known in pol
itics, at our democratic township eau
cas-, his name was sprung as IL candi-
date for township Office, he was read
lily nominated. without his consent or
knowledge, and his name placed upon
the ticket. When he found that his
name was upon our ticket he immedi-
ately notified us that he was not u man
OF our party.
A year or two later his name was
again sprung as candidate for town
ship treasurer, | Immediately opposed
it and stated what he had formerly
said to me as to his position, but the
caucus would not hear to me and his
name was again used without Mr.. Len
hart knowing it until he saw his name
on the ticket on election day, when he
came right out and denounced us for so
doing, plainly declaring that he was Il
republican and warned us not to, do
such thing again. Very Resp.

The JOURNAL has endeavored to
give all the candidates who have made
any effort to work up their interests
in this locality, IL fair showing, and has
allowed the friends of the various
political aspirants an opportunity to
express their preferences through it's
columns, at the same time knowing
that the success of some of those
mentioned might be the defeat of our
own candidates. There are so many
good men in the field, many of whom
have shown us favors that it has been
no easy matter for us to make a selec-
tion, and if any candidate has not been
specially mentioned in our columns it
has been because his friends did not
take the trouble TO write him up. The
paper is for the use of the public, and
the friends of one candidate are
entitled to as much consideration us
are those of another. In this matter
the PAPER has no choice. Our own
personal preferences we will attend to
mt the convention.

Knott's half months salary was not

requires the superintendent to be

AS Prof. Knott possesses neither of

Michigan Condensed Milk company, a
Lansing enterprise, which uses go, 600
pounds of milk per diem the year round,
and ships its goods all over the world
This milk is purchased from surround
ing farmers, and requires daily ex-
penditure of from $500 To $500. He is
also president and chief owner of the
Riverside Brick and Tile companys of
Lansing, "a concern which transacts an
immense volume of business annually
Mr.. Turner's financial interests in the
Upper Peninsula embrace the counties
of Marquette. MenOminee, Iron, Baraga,
Houghton, Keweenaw, Ontonagon and
Gogebic. He is president of the Michi-
gan Slate Company, in Baraga county;
president OF the Iron Star Company,
owner of the Great Western mine at
Crystal Falls, Iron county, and president
of the Gogebic Il Ontonagon Land Com
pany.
In 1876, Hon. James M. Turner was
elected To the Legislature and served
one term, his invariable rule in political
matters. His name appears in the Mich
igan Manual for 1877, on page 1926, and
his occupation is recorded as farmer"
He was then but 26 years of age, the
youngest member of that august body.
He also served one term as member
of the Lansing School Board, and in
1899 was triumphantly elected as mayor
of the democratic city of Lansing.
The remainder of the democratic ticket
was elected by large majority.
During the past summer, Mr.. Turner
took the contract to build the Iron
Range Il Huron Bay railroad, which is
to extend from the Champion, Michi-
CANINE and Republic mines to Huron
Bay, on Lake Superior. Several hun
dred men are now employed in carry
imp out the contract.
As an executive officer Mr.. Turner's
ability has been further proven in his
management of the State fair. He was
on the executive committee of the board
i'm 1899, and was elected president of
the State Agricultural society last Janu-
airy 1t is largely through his influence
that splendid prosperity has succeeded
the financial chaos in which he found
the society at the beginning of his adj.
ministration. One year ago the society
was bankrupt and in debt. To-day it
owns beautiful permanent location
and $50, 900 worth of property, with its
old debts nearly paid. 1t is safe To
trust the helm of the ship of state to
the hand which has guided the State
Agricultural society to such harbOr.
This article can most fittingly be
closed with the authoritative statement
that, although Hon. James NJ. Turner
is at present engaged in all the import
ant business enterprises which have
been outlined, he does not own one
dollar of national bank stock or hold
farm mortgage, nor own one dollars
worth of stock in any railroad. His
entire capital is devoted to industries
which give employment to large num-
bers of men. His business enterprises
are also, without exception, located in
Michigan.

Rockies Cycling.

There Eave been quite a number OF
serious accidents-some attended by
fatal consequences-throu people be-
ing ridden over by cyclists. In all Of
these cases the evidence goes to indicate
excessive speed as the prime cause.
There is pace, especially when going
down hill, which practically deprives
the rider of all control over his machine.
He can guide it, but that is all. AS for
pulling up quickly, as well might the
engine driver Of an express train attempt
to do so. Nor even in the matter Of
guiding has the cyclist free hand. Amy
large deviation from the straight line Of
his course would, if he were pelting
along at the rate Of eighteen or twenty
miles an hour, inevitably cause an up
set. He has nothing for it, therefore,
but to trust to luck and the chapter Of
accidents, which he does with q sang
froid that would be truly admirable
were it not so largely tinctured with
recklessness.
When he mounts to the brow Of q
steep hill and looks down at the decline
stretching out before him he knows per-
fectly we'll that if he once allows his
steel steed to take charge" there can be
no attempt to pull up until che bottom
is reached. Equally aware is he that
by timely application of the brake and
by back pedaling" the machine can be
kept at a moderate pace, admitting Of
guidance and of stopping. But because
1t is a pleasant rush down hill at the
speed of racer without any exertion he
takes his feet off the pedals, sets his
teeth tight and to use his own express
sion, "lets her slide" The result is that
if any pedestrian chances to block his
way-being perhaps too deaf to hear the
warning bella fearful collision takes
place, end one or the other is killed.
Cyclists have yet to learn, apparently,
that the responsibility of keeping clear
of people on foot rests on the drivers of
vehicles.-London Graphic.
