tainly did not, and as to all the town
officers but two, only two signed it, and
they are only j. P's. AS to the 'most
all the business men" stands this way:
one merchant, hardware, timer, and
meat shop, are not Sin it," two merch-
ants and one meat shop are Gin it" and
one of these merchants is at this writ
ing under arrest for violation of the
law. I'll not draw any inference about
the claim for responsibility. Calling bad
names is not argument. About 30 of
the 70 belong to the floating population
and whose taxes cannot be heavy. One
whose name is on the list declares he
did not put it there or authorize any
one else to do so; another said "By
GEORGE | wouldn't have signed if had
known it would be published" Another
says he will not go near the election,
he is SO disguised with himself. We
have yet to learn of any one proud of
his association with that paper unless

der of their lives. Mr.. Cross died at
Dowagiac in 1875. They have three
children: Mrs. Morril Wells, Kansas
City, Kan; Mrs g. f. Chappell, Paw
Paw, Mich, and Mrs. M. &. Marshall
Little Rock, Ark. Mrs. Cross was a
woman of great energy and strong and
independent character. TO such one
the long, painful years of illness must
have been especially trying. For the
past year she has been unable to walk
but rs her affections increased SO did
her patience and fortitude, and though
often longing to lay down the burden
of life, she was always sympathetic and
interested in the lives of those around
her. A few days before her death she
sighed and said, 81 have come Il long
journey, overa very rough road, and
want to rest;" and on Aug. eth, 1S9:
at Little Rock, Ark, God gave her rest
Her devotion to her family and friends
her unflnching fidelity To truth ano

Speaking of gold mines, where do
you suppose the most valuable bit of
