The Lansing Republican says: Gov.

trict. Wayne has been so divided into foul
districts that 1t will be impossible for tht
| republicans to elect single senator from
the county. In order to accomplish this
result the second district has 90, 156 people
and the third but 54,4 ,423. The fifth sena-
torial district, which Is made up OF Lenawee
and Monroe, and which Is republican, has
so, 725. The sixth, which is also heavily
republican, has "a, 100 people, but IN the
seventh district, made up of Kalamazoo, st.

counties have combined population of

and have but 42,2l0 and Al, ,215 respectively.
Other instances are Kent county which is
split into two districts Of 54,9i6 each and
Saginaw county. which makes two districts
of Al, 1876 each. The grossness, of the out
rage is apparent i'm the latter case where the
twenty-second and the twenty-third districts
combined have population smaller than
either the ninth district, the eighteenth, the
twentieth the twenty-fifth or the twenty
seventh.all republican districts. The two
Saginaw districts combined have pOpula-
tion Of but S2,272, while the twenty-seventh
district. every one of whose nine counties
Is republican, has a population of 81, 400!
The practical result is that 10000 people in
the latter district are disfranchised on the
vote for state senator. Such is the outrage

init at the hands of the present legislature.

The organ of the patrons of husbandry,
sthe Michigan Grange, hits the wool question
ssquarely in the following: There can be a
good deal of iegerdemain practiced in sort
ing wool. A fleece that would grade delaine
i'm ono instance will go in the X pile at an
other, and knock off three to FIVE cents per
pound. The grading is seldom up to
samples sent. Our belief is that lot of
chicanery is practiced here as there certainly
is all along the line. The dealer maligns
the farmer for cheating in questionable
practices, and still holds out the bribe for it
'by paying the same price for dirty and un-
desirable wool as for that which is clean
and respectable. Wool that has been soaked
a certain length of time on the sheep in the
water sells for six or ten cents more per
pound than that shorn early, which is
cleaner and will shrink lesss. Farmers are
quite as sharp as dealers, and as long as
this'khd of tactics is kept up, so long will
manufacturers find dirty wool and untidi-
ness in the fieeces.

Pertinent Questions,

In the evening, after his nomination for
governor of Ohio, Major Mckinley was
entertained by the Lincoln club of COlum-
bus, Ohio, and delivered brief address,
at the close of which he made the following
very palpable hits at the inflated preten-
rsions of democracy:
Nov, the democrats say they are going
= to repeal the tariff bill with their big ma
jority in the next house. If they repeal the
new tariff law they have got to put the duty
- of 2X cents pound on sugar. Will they
= do that? Will they repeal the reciprocity
Z provision of the new law? Would they
repeal this law under provision of which
I'VE have already made valuable treaty
: with Brazil, which gives to our agricultural
people all over the country extraordinary
: advantages in introducing the products of
their own farms in that great country, and
under which, we are advised, treaty has
. already been made with Spain and Cuba.
Nobody knows what will be i'm the demo-
= cratic tariff bill. Laughter. Before they
get through it will he a regular crazy quilt
They won't dare to put coal and iron ore on
+ the free list. The south will say to these
. northern men: "Don't do that whatever
you do" Laughter. The bill will be
made by the southern confederacy-the late
Asouthern confederacy, and it will be an as
sault upon every northern industry, and it
will take great care of every southern indus
try. Laughter and applause. They will
never pass tariff bill. The may try it,
but you will. not have 1t on your statute
books when the boys II years of age are 2l
2 and ready to vote. Prolongued applause. !
They dare not touch one line of it, for every
{ line of it is American. You have not heard
word about Mckinley prices since last
election. Laughter and applause All
ask of the people of Ohio is that every man
writes on his ballot what he thinks. and if
he will do that there will be no end to the
republican majority in Ohio. State Repub-

From The Detroit Tribune.
The senatorial redistricting represents the
very worst that the democrats can do i'm the

possible they have made little districts for

whom pronounced her charming. She had
rooms at the Waverly and gave delightful
little RECEPTIONS after the French style.
She was a petite brunette, with dazzing
black eyes, oval face. with clear tinge OF
olive in her complexion and a Deautiiui
neck and arms, which she took no trouble
to conceal.
Now. what must Upton do but fall head
over ears in love with Mrs. Fermiiye.
From the moment that he first put eyes on
her he was completely captlyated. 10 him
she was Rosalind, Ophella, Desdemona
and Imogen in one. He exhausted his vo-
cabulary of superlatives in praising her,
raved about her TO all the garrison and
tired Crossaway TO death by singing her
charms. He haunted the Waverly con-
stantly and spent money in profusion
upon his inamorata. II took small for
tune to pay his bill at the florists alone.
He was devoted slave 10 her on ali pub
lie occasions, and nobody could get near
Mrs. Vermilye without stumbling over
Upton.
Crossaway at first seemed 10 take but
little notice of Mrs. Vermilye, but the
truth is. he watched her narrowly. Then
he quietly began TO ask questions about
her. Suddenly Crossaway was seen on
the streets with Mrs. Vermilye. Then it
was rumored that rivalry had sprung up
between him and Upton for the lady's
favor. Appearances soon confirmed the
rumor. Actually, Crossaway, the student

attempting to cut out his friend, and by
appearances was likely to be successful

captains as one of his whimsical freaks,
but he soon became alarmed. Crossaway
gained favor rapidly, tor he exerted all the
power OF his intellect to shine in Mrs. Yer

yet daring manner, in which Crossaway
conducted his campaign. As for poor Tip

gued, was bad form, and clear against the
ethics of good comradeship.
Meanwhile Upton did not fail whenever
possible TO annoy Crossaway by sneers and
innuendos, but he did not have much oppor-
tunitv for these. as the captain studiously
avoided him and kept through all an i'm
passive countenance Even the other off,
GERS began TO look with little contempt
on Crossaway for not showing some spirit,
though nobody really believed that he was
afraid of Upton. He still continued his
visits to Mrs. Vermiiye, and report got
about that the two were engaged. Upton
CRASHED his teeth and waited his chance.
He would catch Crossaway alone some
time and force him to duel. He prac-
ticed assiduously with the napier until he
was sure he was match for his rival He
would now slip out Of an evening with
pair of these weapons under his surtout
and lie in wait for Crossaway.
II was some time before he got an oppor-
tunity for meeting, for he could not hight
his enemy in the open streets. and he felt
sure that Crossaway would carry a chal-
lenge straight to headquarters. So he
waited and watched the Waverly, intent
on forcing the quarrel to an issue as soon
as possible.
One afternoon he saw the captain and
Mrs. Vermilye leave the hotel for walk.
They took the road toward Point Pleasant,
and Upton followed them. The couple
after while entered the park and were
soon lost TO Tipton's view. He fastened
on and again saw them moving off toward
llttle-frequented part of the grounds.
With his brain on fire, Upton. taking adj
vantage of the trees, drew close up n
them.
At length he noticed Crossaway halt
abruptly and make slight gesture with
his hand, at which the lady paused also.
There seemed to be a surprised. perplexed
look on her face. The captain, too. for
lover, did not appear to be over gracious in
his attention. He stood calmly facing his
companion with the nonchaance which of
old ne was so much accustomed TO assume.
Upton could think of nothing but that his
rival stood before him. He unbuttoned
his coat and took the rapiers in bis hand.
Then he moved almost close enough to

bestowed upon the Slashers.
Crossaway, on the other hand. was a
puzzle 10 the fair sex. At times he would
seem marvelously brilliant, and throw
himself. heart and soul, into an apparent
effort 10 please. and then suddenly would

with him on one occasion left him with

feel like ii. Upton used TO say to him
jokingly:
