THE postmasters at the county seats

several postoffices in their respective
counties. Postmaster Gaghan of this

Bowling Green Democrat.
Bowling Green seems indisposed to
break her record for tagging year or
two behind the rest of the world.
The Napoleon postmaster received
such instructions two years ago, and
during Postmaster Jones' regime the
admonition was strictly observed.
The present incumbent, however, has
not time to discharge the duties de-
volved upon him as Napoleon's
postmaster, let alone sticking his
sense-dulled olfactory nerve into the
business of other postmasters in the
county. He is too busily ingrossed
with bad politics and the acquisition
of vocabulary of big words with
which to express his little ideas, tc
meet the requirements of the postof;
fee department. In case he should
obey orders and visit the West Hope
or Elery Office he would receive few
pointers, and the Napoleon patrona q
be correspondiugly benefited. L

JUDGE HANDY
Gives Some Interesting Facts
About Prehistoric
Animals.

ED. NoRTHwEsT:-You were en-
tIrely correct this week in designating
the bones found by Mr.. Shartzer 10
Fulton County as those Of the Masto-
don. The teeth were the IL grinders
Of that animal and none other.
The statement, however, "a few skele-
tons OF this animal
have been found on the Arctic Coast
OF North America, but never south OF
that, )" is incorrect. Many have been
found In Fulton County, and hun
dreds in the United States. In fact,
they are very common.
You are also wrong In stating that
"there is only one in the animal king
dom can lay claim to bones of this
size, and that is the Mastodon."
The Mammoth, sometimes called
the Hairy Mammoth, ,"and again, the
"Siberian Elephant" was much lar
ger, probably the largest of elephants.
The Mammoth was from Is to Is
feet in height and longer than the ele-
phaut. 1t was thickly covered with
long, shaggy hair and had very long
name. The tusks of the mastodon
were something like those of the mod
ern elephant, but larger.
Those of the Mammoth were enor-
nous, being from II to Is feet In
length and extended outward and
backward. The remains of the Man,
motn have been found all over North
America from Behring Straits to the
Gulf of Mexico, and in the old world
from Siberia to the west Of Europe
and as far south as Rome. It's molar
teeth some times weighed II pounds
one found at GAINESVILLE weighed as
much. More than 1000 molar teeth
Of the Mammoth were lodged up by
oyster dredges on the coast of Norfolk
alone.
The Mastodon had been here long
ages before the advent of the Nam .
moth.
Excuse any impudence, but the
statements referred to were uninten-
tionally misleading, and as many
young people read the NORTHWEST,
1 cannot resist the opportunity of cor
recting the slight error.
Very truly yours,
VIM. H. HANDY,

DE MoCRATs of every school district
should organize and see that not one
Democrat be allowed to remain away
from the election. And every demo
crat should familiarize himself with
the new system of voting, in order that
every ballot may be counted on the
right side. Many ballots cast last
year were only counted for the head
of the ticket, by improper marking
although the voter intended to vote

An Imposition.

A movement Is on foot at Mcclure,
led by one Light, to attach to the viii
lage a parcel of land lying north and
east Of the railroad. The project was
conceived in ignorance, and igno-
rance now holds the reIns, as the lille
gal and bungling manner In which its
furtherance has been attempted, lie
noted, and will give evidence. Three
times have abortive attempts been
made to bring the matter before the
commissioners and in each case were
the preliminary steps taken found to
be grossly irregular and unlawful.
With pugnaclty known only to the
upsophisticated, Light, ct al. have de-
cided to stumble on in another at
tempt.
AS the prayer now reads, to grant it
would be an injustice to many tax
papers, Notwithstanding the petition
itself is couched in language plethoric
with "respectfully's" etc.
The territory proposed for annexa-
tion embraces the Manufacturing Ad-
dition and land south of the railroad
and easto of Mcclure the road bed of
the defunct Coldwater fake.
1t may be that such annexation is
proper and will meet the appreciation
of Mcclure people. Howbeit, the Pc
tition should end at that point. But
Light don't so think. He insists on
including some 160 acres of section
81, lying west of the Manufacturing
Addition, which territory is all farm
ing land. To subject this property to
the municipal tax would not be just,
and will no doubt be so regarded by
the commissioners.

GENTLEMEN Yours of the 3rd

says alithe business he did for the

Questions for Farmers.

A. E. Brown, In the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, propounds the following ques-
tions:
l. How can a tariff upon imported
wheat help farmers, when the smallest
amount of wheat shipped from the
United States in any one year during
the last decade was over $4,000, 900
bushels?
2. OF what avail is tariff upon i'm
ported corn, when the last quantity of
corn sent out of this country in any one
year since 1880 was over 100000
bushels?
8. How are American farmers bene-
fitted by the duty on beef, pork and
mutton, when we are annually export
ing large quantities ofthese products?
4. Did you ever notice that the Nc
Kinley billin section 25,snd elsewhere,
provides that when manufacturer
uses imported materials upon which
there are duties, and exports goods
made from said imported materials, he
can go to the treasury of the United
States and get back SO per cent. of the
duty which had been collected upon
the things entering into the construc'
ton of the goods which the manufac-
turer has sent out of the county?
5Does not this law, which encourages
and enables our manufacturers to sell
farmers outside of the United States
cheaper than at home place you at 9
disadvantage?
edo you know that the highest duty
upon unwashed wool is IL cents a
pound while the highest duties upon
manufactured Woolen goods are 10
cents pound, plus go per cent?
| 7. Has your attention been called tC
the fact that the manufacturer of wool
en- goods has the benefit of the same
duties, whether his goods are part OF
all wool?
s. Did it ever occur to you that if the
advance in the cost of the wool farmer
sell and the woolen goods they buy,is
advanced in ratio proportionate t.
the duties upon each line of goods
farmers as a class, who compose 40 pc
cent. of our population, receive mucl
less than they pay out in cosenquenc'
of the deal?
8. When did farmers ever form ,
trust to limit production and put VI
prices, as manufacturers have so fire.

10. Did you see the statement in tina
Republican paper, the New York 1rib
atne, that there are ia millionaires IL

whom the Tribune admitted had mad
their money in part, or.in whole, from
protected industries, while not farm
