COMMUNICATED.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I understand that our
Mayor, Dr. 6. F. Witter, was the first
County Superintendent of Schools ever
elected in Wood County, that he was
reelected for four successive terms, and
that the enviable condition of the
schools throughout the county are more
or less due to his early, wise and
energetic work in that field of labor;
and that the Howe High School of our
city, of which we are so justly proud,
is partly the products also of his fertile
efforts in its behalf and all know and
realize, how well and faithfully he
served the people Of Grand Rapids for
many long years as their postmaster,
entirely renovating the office in
efficiency and worth. In fact whenever
there has been any great or important
work for the good and upbuilding of
the city he has been found to the front.
These things are familiar to everybody
in this section of the state and they
should not be lost sight of by the
tax payers of our city when you are
looking for your Mayor for the ensuing
year. We the common people, not the
politicians and tricksters, are the ones
who want him fol our next Mayor and
this leads me to the consideration Of an
article in your last REPORTER under the
head of mayors Office"
In response to this legal twaddle the
readers thereof is informed that we
have a city record which shows that the
Mayors chair has been occupied
at least three separate terms
by three separate lawyers Of average
ability, that each lawyer must also
have been one of the Equalizing Board
of course is admitted by all, and yet,
every one of these without exception,
allowed various mortgages owned by
various parties, to 60 un-taxed during
their respective terms of office. This
we cannot charge to their stupidity for
they were lawyers; But if these legal
lights (who assume to tell us what is,
and what is not law for reasons best
known to themselves, permitted or
countenanced such things; is it to be
expected that our Mayor who makes no
pretentions to extra knowledge of the
law, should be more perfect than they
No, Mr.. Grumbler, this is too thin, first
cast the beam out ofthine own eye then
cans't thou see clearly to cast the mote
out Of thy brothers eye. IF you desire
the highest well being and prosperity
of our city, do as you intimate, some
thing for it. put in your money and
might and help build it up; and if you
have no money 90 borrow it the same
as some of us have had to who have
helped Luild up the city's permanent
resources; and when you have demon
trated your sincerity to the city and to
the people by actual work and the
investment of money instead Of
blarney: it will then be ample time for
you to descend from your majestic
heights into the political slums where
you appear most at home and remain
long enough just before election to tell
the poor people what you know about
their burdens.
Actions speak louder than words this
time, and the dear good people know
too we'll what kind Of jobs your gang
have been putting up on them and they
wllltell you all about it the 1st of April
next at the poles, and don't you forget

A FEW PLAIN QUESTIONS.

Do you want to get rid Of that Head
ache that bothers you so much? Do
you want to drive away Incipient
Catarrh that is settiug itself in your
head? Do you want to change that
Saliow and Blotchy complexion for a
skin that is bright and clear? Do you
want to keep your mind clear, your
breath sweet and your blood pure?
Then Pe-ru-na is the thing you need.
Now is the time Of the year when you
need something that will make your
blood pure and keep you free from
those many Spring Complaints to which
all are so subject. OF course, if your
Catarrh has become chronic, or the
impurities in your blood have develop
ed into disease, then La-cu-pi-a
should be taken, and taken at once.
Otherwise Pe-ru-na is all that you need,
supplemented always, however, by
Man-a-in, to keep the bowels in good
condition. These three medicines
Pe-ru-na, La-cu-pi-a and Man-a-lin-no
household can afford to be without.

Worth Knowing.

Mr. VI. II. Morgan, merchant, Lake
City, Fla, was taken with a severe cold,
attended with distressing cough and
running into consumption in its first
stages. He tried many so-called popu-
lar cough remedies and steadily grew
worse. Was reduced in flesh, had
difficulty in breathing and was unable
TO sleep. Finally tried Dr. Kings New
Discovery for consumption and found
immediate relief, and after using about
half dozen bJttles found himself well
and has had no return of the disease.
No other remedy can show 20 grand
record of cures. as DR.. Kings New
Discovery for consumption guaranteed
to do just what is claimed for it.-Trial
