The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1892-02-10

There was little mystery pervading
the air of the Prosecuting Attorneys
office last week. That mystery was
cleaved up Saturday night when Sheriff
Thomas returned with VIM. A. Palmer.
the violater of the local option law, in
custody.
The circumstances of his conviction
last September, and subsequent "skip-
ping out" are familiar to our readers,
and it has been stated THAT Palmer was
aafe aud could not be disturbed. How
ever, Prosecutor Titus thought other
wise and the result proves his judg-
ment good.
In the latter part of JanuaLy, Mr..
Titus quietly prepared the necessary
papers to extradite Palmer, who had
been located at Chicago, and went to
Lansing on February 1st,:: where he
made personal application for re-
QUESTION from the Governor of Mich
igan on the Governor of Illinois, for
Palmer's return to the authorities of
this state. The requisition being Oh
tanned, Sheriff Thomas at once started
for Springfield, received the Governors
order for Palmer's arrest, and the latter
is now in durance vile, serving out the
sentence so long evaded.
The faithful and efficient officials who
accomplished this will receive the heart
felt praise of all law abiding citizens for
the zeal with which they have worked
in bringing a violator of law To justice,
as well as demonstrating beyond ques-
ton, that the man who overrides the
local option law is no safer than any
other law breaker.
Perseverance and push win every
time, and we are clearly of the opinion
that there's nothing the matter with
Lawyer Titus back bone.

Decentralization.

On Feb. 3, at the pleasant home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Il. X. Harrison, occurred
one of the pleasantest weddings of the
season, at which time DIR. w. G.. Y. Fer
guson and Miss Zilpha Harrison
launched their bark on the matrimonial
sea and sailed away under sunny skies,
waited by balmy breezes of friendly
congratulation.
The bride and groom were supported
by DR.. w. G.. Bartwell of Detroit, and
Miss Cora Hinckley of this place, and
the skillful fingers of Mrs. Guy Harri-
son evoked the sweet strains of the
wedding march. About 30 guests wit
messed the ceremony, and promptly at 2
p. M. the bridal party entered the front
parlor and were soon made one by Rev.
j. Clizbe, the usual congratulations
being Immediately followed by an invi-
tation to the dining room, where finely
appointed dinner awaited them
The house was brilliantly illuminated
by the new incandescent lights just put
in, and considerable merriment was ex-
cited during the dinner by the sudden
going out of these luminaries, when
Guy explained that he ordered them out
at O'Clock, as he didn't suppose they
would eat all day.
1t was pleasant, informal wedding
throughout,-the high contracting par
ties looked their best, every one was in
happy mood, the presents were numer-
Gus and elegant, and every thing con-
spired to make the occasion a bright
and shining milestone on life's highway
The only cloud on the matrimonial
horizon was that caused by the showers
of rice that attended their departure
for Lawton, where they took the east
bound train for the doctors old home
at Newcastle, Ontario.
On their return, the newly welded
pair will board with Mrs. G.. Bryar for
a time, intending 70 set up an establish
ment of their own in the near future,
and will begin their new life with the
best wishes of host of friends.

LABOR NOSTRUlN,y.

Column after column of the news
papers are used in exploiting panaceas
for poverty. One man says there il
too much civilization, another says
there il not enough. One advises an
escape from the crowded cities where
competition reduces the wages of Ia
Dor and resort to the rich soil OF the
West, and another advises co.opera-
ton and q pooling of interests.
None of them strike the key note
and advertise the genuine medicine,
They are all empires, mere tyros in
political economy. The evil has but
one cure and the sooner 1t Is adopted the
better. There is one thing and one
only that will cure the evils of pow
erty, and that is honest, faithful work
supplemented by due economy in
living. 1t is the rule that work will
always accomplish its results, comfort
and happiness. 1t makes little or NO
difference about a mans environ
ments. If he fails in one place he will
fail in another. Failure is a habit OF
his that he can never abandon, simply
because he tries to succeed without
doing honest work. II he succeeds in
one place he will succeed in another
for success is a habit of successful
man that he strengthens by honest
work. Any man who will 60 t(
work at any occupation for which bt
is adapted and stick to it will finally
succeed. Nine-tenths of the failures
in this country are attributable to tn,
change of occupation. A man Jumps
from one thing to another and doel
not succeed in anything There IL
really no lack of employment any
where and if man will only consen
to do the kind of work he is prepared
to do, he can always get employment
Brilliant young men often d.
not succeed in the professions because
they depend upon that brilliancy
and are unwilling to work in grind
ing the principles upon which theil
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1892-12-15

success is dependent; but on the
other hand very ordinary young men
succeed in the professions because
they know they must work to sue
coed, and in the history of this coun'
try from it's origin there never has
been q failure in the professions of
man who depended for success on per-
sistent hard work.
1t is the same story in all depart
ments of human industry. Ii
REQUIRES no extensive knowledge OF
intricate and subtle problems OF
political economy. 1t is as plain as
the nose on mans face. 1t is the
adoption of some occupation and when
adopted, a persistent, untiring and
unchanging energy applied to that
occupation, and just 'as certain as a
sound grain will grow and yield an
abundant harvest, if it is planted in a
good soil, receives the sunshine and
the rain and is properly cultivated
lust as certain will success in any oc-
eupation follow patient and constant
industry. This and this only is
the panacea for poverty in the
world-this when joined to pro-
per economy in livinA. For
sick man made well, keeps well by
avoiding in the future what caused
his sickness and observing the ordi-
nary laws of good living. A man who
succeeds in business or work keeps in
a condition to work and support his
family by conserving the result of his
energy-his wages for work. The
consciousness that he is doing well
and that he is constantly putting by
little something for a rainy day,
makes of a man once poor brave,
self reliant man, man better fitted
to carve out even greater successes and
still further widen the breach between
himself and poverty. These two prin-
ciples go hand in hand, furnish the
only weapon to effectually kill
poverty.

ANOTHER STEERING COMlITTEE'
Well, we'll, the Democrats have got
the presidency and they don't seem
to know what to do with it. Brice
German and Carlisle have been ap'
pointed by the Democratic senatorial
caucus as a kind of steering commit
tee" to go to New York and consult
with Whitney and few other leaders
"And there's more to follow" 1t is
said Senator Hill is to follow.
1t is rather humiliatiug to a Texas
Democrat to know that office is go I'M
accustomed to Democrats i'll any sec.
ton of this country that they don't
know what to do with it, and have to
follow the policy of Alliance people
in forming "steerirg committees"
We know what to do with offices
down here in Texas. We could give
them any number of pointers. Office
is just as natural to Texas Dem
ocrat as a cocktail is to a Kentuckian
before breakfast. He slips into it
with all the ease of manner of
q We're de We're and he makes it howl
for all it is worth from the day of his
Inauguration until the day he is
bounded out of it by his successful OPP
ponent with a shotgun. He gets 80
used to it in short time that be
hates to give it up, and it the majority
against him is less than hundred he
swears the election is fraud and un-
less his opponent has grit ne hesitates
to vacate.
A Texas Democrat does not need
any steering committee to assist him
in running his office, and he can
make it outrun Boston colt or he can
trot it along at better time than Nancy
Hanks and give her good start. Oh,
no, it is not the least embarrassing to
him. The only embarrassment in The
matter Is getting other fellow Demo
Gratis off the track before the conven-
ton, for every mothers son of them
want some office. They are built that
way. Statesmen down here in Texas
are as plenty as blackberries and they
stick to ofiee like seaticks. If a
young man in Texas once gets into
Office he lives forever, and never lets
60 his grip on some office. We have
some men in Texas who have had one
office or another ever since the battle
of San Jacinto, and from
appearances they will hold Oh
to office until that memorable day
when Gabriel shall blow his trumpet
and the heavens and the earth sh ii
be rolled up like a scroll. If Mr..
Cleveland lacks any advice about run
ming the presidency we could send
him largely over 100000 Texas Demo
Gratis who would willingly undertake
the Job for him.

THE sbigotry and intolerance OF
some of the preachers does intinite
harm to the propagation OF the Chris

town, called his church members to-
gether on the same evening and dur.
ng lecture in which he gave gloo-
my views of religion he said
he hoped "that those who at.
tended the ball might be para
lyzed as they took their places
after the music should commence
1t is forbidden ITO Judge" but such ar
expression as that never came from d
heart imbued with the spirit OF CHI list
Godgiven charity, love,i the founda
ton of Christianity and the heart tina,
gave impulse to the tongue that utter
I'd such hope is filled with all I'M
charitableness, with intolerance

AT THE DAM.
Contractor Corrigan is Preparing for a Big
Rise in the River.

| AsAoo ~ tho 4shNoAs
Early yesterday morning Contrac-
tor COrrigan received telegram from
his foreman at Granite Mountain
stating that it had been raining there
steadily for twenty-four hours, that it
was still raining and warning him to
be on the lookout for a rise in the riv-
er. Mr.. Corrigan's experience with
the Colorado has been q very expen-
sive one, the last rise striking him to
the tune OF two or three thousand dol
lars. This t me, however, he deter
mined to take no chances and as soon
as the dispatch from his foreman was
received he put his men to work, strip
ping the wall of everything movable
and by O'Clock in the afternoon he
had all his dericks, engines, skips,
tools and in fact everything
that could be carried
away by the water, yanked
up by the big cable ana deposited
high up on the bluff at the east end OF
the work out of harms way. A rise
at this time can do 10 damage to the
masonry, the only effect it will have
being to delay The work, there is no
telling how long, at the gap at which
point he has made such excellent
progress during the past lew days.
Last nignt the water was rising slow
ly, but the great bulk of it will hardly
get down until today.
The big hole that Mr.. Waterston
has excavated for the power house
had an immense amount of water in
1t that will take many day to pump
out. Nearly all of his scoops and big
shovels were covered up, and yester.,
day morning when he sent several
teams into the pit to pull them out
the mules came SO near being mired
In the mud that the task had TO be
given up.

1T is highly probable that the Mon
etary conference at Brussels will at
once adjourn until May. Various
reasons have been given for that al
journment, one of which is to ascer-
tain Mr.. Cleveland's position in re-
gard to silver. That certainly must
be mere pretext for Mr.. Cleveland's
opinions on tho subject are very well
known. The probability is that the
adjournment until May is intended to
cover total failure of the conference
to arrive at anything practical. The
conflicting interests of different Ma
tionalities seem too great to hope for
immediate reconciliation and pres.
emit uniform monetary system among
all the commercial people of the
world.
