THE LOCAL ELECTIONS.

The result of tho elections In the sew
eral townships ofBaraga county partakes
but little OF pollical nature, party lines
having been drawn In only one town
ship aud that one, Baraga, the Demo
cratic stronghold, the Republican ticSet
was victerious'by a decided majority.
Yet thinking people will attribute the
result to local rather than national issues.
One gratifying result OF the election how
ever, will be noted by the taxpayers OF
the county the supervisors elect are
men OF integrity and business tact, aud
there are now some prospects that the
finances of the county will be handled
with some business-like method. There
is no denying the fact that the finances
OF the county have been going to the
bad for some years, and there never was
more opportune time to call halt.
The county has been plunged into debt
to such an extent that county orders are
frequently discounted so that the holders
may realize the ready cash. There is no
possible excuse for this condition, and its
origin can only be attributed to the in
efficiency Of the supervisors who have
been too lavish In the expenditure Of
public moneys and too cowardly to meet
their constituents with heavy tax levy
to cover these expenditures. II 1t is
right to make these expenditures it is
right to tax the people to pay for them;
but IT is vicious and ruinous policy for
supervisors to vote away money to please
tax-eaters and then levy an insu fficieDt
tax to please taxpayers. While this sys-
tenn of temporIzing NAV succeed in blind
ing the people for the time being the
results are bound to show up in time, and
then comes the day of reckoning. AS
Abraham Lincoln said: You can fool ali
the people part Of the time and you can
fool part OF the people all the time; but
you can't fool all the people all the time"

WAsHIEGToY, Jan. 8l.,-At late hour
last night the following details from the
official advices of the navy department.
are learned concerning the incidents on
the Goth at Rio de Janero:
Two ships were conveyed to the wharves
by the Detroit, the insurgents warships
following them. When nearly at the
wharf, and while tug was taking cable
ashore the insurgent warships opened
fire, sending volley of musket shot un-
der the bow of the tug The Detroit an
swered with warning shot, and the in
surgent ship then sent shot over the
Detroit, The Detroit in reply sent q shell
which reached portion Of the stern of
the insurgents ship, doing little damage.
The insurgcnt commander then fired in
warning n broadsde to leeward, in the
opposite direction from which the Detroit
lay This being answered by another shot
from tho Detroit, the insurgents signaled
that unless the Detroit ceased firing they
(the insurgents) would sink the American
ship. The language which was used by
the American admiral in answer to this
| signal was of such nature that the in
cident closed for that day, and the ships
were allowed to land
The statement that Da CANA has SUR
rendered is credited here. 1t is supposed
| that If he surrendered he did SO with
some assurances or promises from the
, American admiral.

What Causes Pimples ?

Clogging of the pores or mouths of the seba-
ceous glands with sebum or oily matter.
The plug of sebum in the centre of the pimpie
is called a blackhead, grub, or comodoue.
Nature will not allow the clogging Of the pores
to continue long, hence,
Inflammation, pain, swelling and redness,
later pus or matter forms, breaks or is opened,
the plug comes out and the pore is once moro
free
There are thousands Of these pores in the face
alone, any one of which is liable to become
clogged by neglect or disease.
