Ii there is one thing more amusing than
another II is pricking democratic bubbles in
the Press, and straightway the Press man
sends to Saginaw,i IL 1t is an attack upon You
mans or Tarsney, and says In substance 1.-The
republicans are staving us in; we must have
some help" Tarsney comes up smiling and
says certainly. The democratic party is Of
the people and the Press being one of the
people will be assisted. They've got us In
tight place on the tax Questi0n'-and off
the Press promulgator goes to the seat of
squawbuckdom at Lansing and tries to draw
some comfort from the bureau of democratic
information there, and within the state house
wise democrats, old democrats, and demo-
Gratis regardless OF previous condition Of
servitude to SOpcr, were called together. 1t
was serious matter and In the language of
the poet, 1t was resolved that something
must be done. What was done appeared in
the Press this week.. The conclusion reach
ed by the council OF the squawbucks was
that of the two horns of the dilema 1t would
be well to insist on claim for low taxation
and economy, and admit that the money
was being heaped up in the state treasury.
lncompetency in fnanciering is admitted in
the following:
''But, as the legislature had determined
by law the amount OF the tax levy for both
~ and '92 before 1t could be known how
economical the administration would be, the
present cash balance cannot be used to re-
duce taxes until the next legislature meets
and determines the tax levy for '93 and "a.
1t was the business of the Legislature to
know that $500, 200 were due this state and
the draft on the sub treasury of the United
States drawn long before the adjournment
of the legislature. 1t would be just as sen
sible for the next Legislature to know moth
ing of the states assets and allow the money
to remain in the state treasury indefinitely.
No better reason could be given for repub-
lican legislature than the above confession
of incompetency. The Press chose to assume
ignorance on the part of its Legislators, to
cover a blunder. The cash balance now In
the treasury is credited to various funds and
may be used for purposes which may not
leave this balance in the treasury for two
years. Great stress Is laid upon the state
ment that the legislature had determined by
la,o the tax levy for 1891 and 1892 From
the conclusions Of the argument what the
Press should have said was that the legisla-
ture determined by ignorance what the tax
levy should be. The irresistible and inccn-
trOvertible fact remains that Treasurer
BREASTED received over $3.50. 900 more money
than Treasurer Maltz did in corresponding
years. The question of increased or de-
creased taxation is not what state spends
within given time, but what 1t takes out of
the peoples pockets. When the balance
sheet Is struck at the end of 1899, then and
only then can the relative saving OF the
funds received i'm 1891 be determined.
That democracy has received more in 1891
than republicanism in 1889 must be admit
ted, and the Press is asked to answer why
It was necessary.

The Shiawassee Scientific American
copied the Press article containing Tarsney's
Examinations against THE TIMES and repub-
ncan party. Whether this service to Tars-
ney is to be credited on the old account or
the first entry on a new one remains to be
seen. Republican papers in the sixth dis
tict as far as was learned contained no no.
tice of the West Point examination because
none was sent them. Whether the Ameri-
can was the exception to Tarsney's rule and
was accorded notice for old times sake or
whether the news was justutaken from the
Press is hard to say.

The Press tlippantlyltries to conceal the
petty trickery of Tarsney in the matter of
the West Point cadetship examination by
saying that republican papers were not per-
mitted TO have SCOOP on their democratic
rivals by being sent notice of the examination
We do not know that the Press is to blame
for Tarsney's actions but any person of
understanding who knows that three of the
four counties in the eighth congressional
district are republican and inothOse counties
the notice of a non-partsan examination
is given only in partisan papers, will know
that such actions are dishonest and I'M
worthy of gentleman. A little inside his
tory of the West Point examination is re-
freshing Youmans never ordered an
examination. The notices of examination
were written out in Tarspey's office and the
statement of THE TIMES is strictly correct
i'm that YOnmans, instead of holding an ex-
Tim Tarsney. Tarsney was compelled to
promise an examination but neglected and
failed to do so until THE TIMES brought him
to the rack. The subsequent partisan send
ing of notices is too well known to need
comment Youmans left the matter with
Tarsney and the latter might have appointed
anyone in the district or auctioned of the
appointment. Ii the abdication of his
power by Youmans to Tarsney and Tars-
ney's trickery can commend itself to anyone,
let them tell why.

Hiram johnson is said to still pin faith
to Youmans who hopes to secure position
for him in the agricultural department
Since most of the positions in this depart
nent involve technical preparation or are
under the operation. Of the civil service law
Yeumans is simply deferring hope that
never can be realized. 1t seems to escape
the notice of those interested that Jerry
Rusk is q republican and that any influence
YOumans might have would be about as
powerful as a republican in Michigan of
getting positions for his friends under the
present state administration.

The Second Act Of the Libel Case.

Owosso, MICH, FEBRUARY 3, 1899.
TO the Publishers of the Owosso TIMES,
Owosso Mich:-
Notice is hereby served upon you, de-
handing an immediate and full retractiOn of
the libelous articles published by you in the
OwossO TINES, concerning myself, in the
issues of March 81, 1891, April 3. 1891.
April II, 1891, May 10, 1891, and December
4. 1891, and that you make such amends as
are reasonable and possible under the cir
cumstances. Signed,
GEO. w. OWEN.
Mr.. Owen, i'm the above matter, refers to
the articles in what was known as the Will
COX bribery case. If Mr.. Owen has any
facts bearing on the case that will serve to
disconnect himself from the matter, anything
that will serve to warrant reversal of the
report Of the Senate Investigating commit
nitee, such will be published. Until
such information Is furnished any reason
abe and possible retraction is out
of the question. If Mr.. Owen wishes to
have the bribery case in the courts he will
be furnished with the most complete line of
testimony that can be desired, and If he
chooses to thus take the bull by the
horns he will find 1t to be very incon-
venient position to be in when obliged to let
20. If there is law against bribery and IL
there was an attempt at bribery, THE TIMES
will see that the information is filed and the
case vigorously prosecuted.

MANY Kinds. of MONKEYS.

The ordinary reader hardly real
ICES how many varieties of monkeys
exist. We hear of monkeys in the
Indies with reddish brown bodies,
black heads and faces of sky blue.
There are monkeys with white eye
lids, and green monkeys to be found
on the African continent and Cape
de Verde islands. The howlers,
which inhabit South America, are
large and fierce, and travellers de-
scribe their yells as absolutely
appalling. So dreadful is the sound
of their growlings and roarings that
one would imagine that all the beasts
Of the forests had gathered together
for a battle. These creatures are so
fierce that even tbe most skillful and
adventurous trainer is unwilling to
teach them tricks. -Harper's Young

STUCK BY A PIN.
a oneer Spectacle on the Great New
York and Brooklyn Bridge.

"A nneer Spectacle on the Great New
York and Brooklyn Bridge.
With an agonized, painful and tor
tured expression on her countenance
and with few small parcels in her
hands, she was jostled, pushed and
showed on board bridge train which
was just about to start from the New
York side the other evening during
the flush of the evening traffic. She
had evidently been shopping all day,
and she was tired. Her light spring
coat was open, revealing trim, tight
lifting suit of brown and a waist so
slender and stemike that YOU felt
like lending her your arm for a re-
enforcement. She wore a hat that
beggared description, and her feet
were incased in tiny patent leather
ties.
Yet she was anxious, cross or vexed
about something, and the crowd dis
turbed her, and the noise and confu-
sion Jared on her spirit. More
through luck than courtesy she
gained a seat, and as she dropped
into it she heaved sigh. No one
seemed to notice her sigh, however,
and she heaved louder. Her second
sigh had the effect of attracting the
well bred stare of the few women in
the immediate vicinity, and of arrest
ing the attention of few men from
their all absorbing evening papers.
just then the train began to move
ana She got up, coughed and looked
sick.
She glared wildly around the car
and then earnestly scrutinized the
hoor. With gasp she fell back into
her seat and tore off her coat and be-
gan to violently loosen the collar of
ner dress. In an instant several men
were at her side, each in his own
helpless manner Offering his services
and inquiring the nature of the at
tack. Was it vertigo, hemorrhage,
heart failure or nausea7 Appealingly
she looked up into the face of an
elderly woman bending over her and
slgn1tied desire to whisper. But
the whisper proved to be just audi
bic, for the bystanders overheard a
hollow voice utter, There is a pin
sticking right into my back"
And sure enough the elderly WON
an found the pin in her back, put
there by somebody to hold a rip
caused by the straining of the over
tightly drawn cloth. With profound
utterances Of gratitude the woman
walked out of the car with her bene-
factress, and the other witnesses dis
persed in their different directions,
vaguely conscious of feeling of re-
greet that one of their own race, even
though of the opposite sex, should
exhibit herself as such benign fool,
first In strapping herself so tightly,
and second IN repairing damages with
pins.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Commenting Church ReIls.

The custom Of consecrating church
bells was once common to nearly all
denominations, but it is now con
fined principally to the Roman Cath
olics The old form was to wash the
bell with holy water, anoint it with
oil and mark it with the sign of the
cross, and to some extent this form
is still used At the time of the Ref
ormation in England the prejudice
against Roman Catholic ceremonies
was SO strong that instead of being
blessed new bells were occasionally
turned up and filled with punch,
which then was drunk by the par

An amusing deception connected
with dog muzzling came to light the
other day in the Ternes quarter of
Paris. An old lady, whose pet had
been seized among others, COM
planned that while her pug was cap
tured the police allowed that of her
neighbor, painter. to roam at will
without muzzle. The inspector as
sured the lady that the artists dog
was always muzzled, and was some
what taken aback on learning that
the muzzle in question was merely
painted on the animals head.-Lon-

A Vegetable Pepsin.

The useful properties of the papaw
plant have long been known to the
various natives, and have been taken
advantage of by them, as can be seen
by reference to the works of travel
ers who can themselves vouch for
the accuracy of the accounts they
narrate. Thus Drury, in ''The Useful
Plants of India" states that old hogs
and poultry which are fed upon the
leaves and fruit, however tough the
meat they afford might otherwise
be, are thus rendered perfectly ten
der and good if eaten as soon as
killed. Browne, too, in his Natural
History of Jamaica" says that meat
becomes tender after being washed
with water to which the juice of the
papaw tree has been added, and if
left in such water ten minutes it will
fall from the spit while roasting or
separate into shreds while boiling

AntispasInodics.

Irregular nervous actions on the
part of overworked or weak individ-
uals frequently show a tendency to
spasm and undue excitement which
it is sometimes difficult to control.
Hysteria is one form of it, insomnia
or sleeplessness is another nantes
tation of it. The bromides have
been found the best medicines to
counteract this nervous, spasmodic
action, and especially the bromide of
potash and soda. If the bromide of
potassium is rejected by the stomach
there is some irritability in that re-
glon, and the soda salt should be
used. At least four grains Of the
bromide of potash should be given
to a child, and much larger doses
should be given to adults.
Too small doses to have any effect
are often administered. The bro
mides are nonpoisonous, and they can
be used with considerable freedom
among those who know nothing
about the danger of drugs. They
are also valuable sometimes in re-
heving the pain of slight attacks of
collie and headache without leaving
any bad after effects. Yankee Blade.
