Dear N0rfherner: = Again We take
time to say we are rejoicing with all
lovers of good government, that we
have emerged from the realms of Demo
cratic darkness into the broad light OF
Republican supremacy. Once again
we feel to render thanks for this spOn-
taneous effervescent overflow OF Amer
icanism; This mark of disapproval OF
Grover the Great and his cuckoo"
cohorts. Up in this wooden country,
where agriculture is in its infancy, peo-
pie cried aloud i'm their agony and 1t
was loud enough To be heard Nov. q,
and the cry echoed and re-echoed
across from east 10 west and from north
to south until there was nothing heard
beside, except over i'm Bay City one
poor, lone, lean Democrat is left a relic
of by-gone days. How he escaped the
deluge is unknown unless, as in NOah's
day, Donovan, like the devil, was pick
ing oakum up aloft during the gale.
We are once more engaging in the
lumber and single trade; contractors
are lively; men are being employed, at
reduced wages of course, but are glad
to get something to do. Nearly all are
at work, or soon will be. We are to
have one more mill here within thirty
days-a basket factory, and more inn
provements all along the line. In the
spring brick yard will begin opera
tions. Thompson Lumber Co. are
about to sell their large plant to a
Grand Rapids company. Our Net0s Will
enlarge its Office upon ground i1oor
and place therein new steam rotary
press with all the modern improve
ments. 1t is doing big business in job,
book and blank work, and in IA neat and
tasty manner; and one very profound
question, settled before election, was
the political status of We editor He is
now one of the party who crows. Our
Herald is being slowly and sadly used
up with creeping paralysis; getting
shaky, in fact. DULY matter OF few
days when the defunct will be planted,
and "Hedgy" will no more roost upon
our back fence.
Now, Mr.. Editor, we believe, the late
outpouring of Republican spirit is due
largely to the stand taken by the press
of the land and especially OF our State,
and we think the people appreciate the
| work done. The newspapers are not
only candidates friends but the peoples ,
educating we-uns better than our learn
ed college professors, who have been
|
come under the saying "too much
learning hath made them mad" Still
keep up the battle for two years, until
again our country is entirely reduced
from the party which has always work
ed ruin to the people. You can take
10 your bosom the faith of having, with
the Grand Rapids Heratd, the Kaama'
700 Telegraph, Detroit Tribune and a
host of other workers, been largely
instrumental in bringing about this
happy change, and every reader will
feel, as does your humble servant, to
thank you, and hope you may succeed
in your endeavor; that your pathway
may be strewn with Republican flowers,
and when the trump calls you home
you will he given great big harp, and
you may blow to Your hearts content,
and we will gulp dow the mucic, for
it will be sweet to your friend

Marvellous Results.

From letter written by Rev j. Gunder-
man of Diamondale Mich, we are permitted
to make this extract 81 have no hesitation
in recommending DIR. Kings New Discovery,
as tho results were almost marvellous in the
case of my wife. While was pastor of the
Baptist church at Rives Junction she was
brought down with Pneumonia, succeeding
La Grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing
would last hours with little interruption, and
it seemed as If she could not survive them.
A friend recommended DIR. Kings New Dis
covery; it was quick in its work and highly
satisfactory in results Trial bottles free at

this country: about 1s42 ungummed ell.

proved them by adding gum to the flaps,
and the gummed envelopes l made were
the first which had been seen anywhere,
and the first envelopes Of any kind used
by the United States government were
made by me. The demand at first was
very small. Envelopes were as difficult
to introduce as any new invention Or i'm

they were considered only as a tempo

fashion again. That is the reason | did

He ADoIocized.

A western judge was listening to an
attorney who had mean habit of inter.
polating remarks into the proceedings of
the court. What he said was scarcely
ever heard by any one, as he mumbled
rather than spoke and would never re-
peat a remark. One day he said some
thing which nobody heard except the
judge, who at once became exceedingly
angry. Turning to the court bailiff, he
Numbered out, "Adjourn this eourtr'
Then, as soon as the bailiff had done his
duty, the judge stepped from the bench

and entered the clerks Office The law

Disappearing From Spain.

Naturalists have noticed the gradual
disappearance from Spain during the
last half century of certain mammalian
fauna which have long been familiar to
the Iterian peninsula. The porcupine,
which was common in Andalusia and
Estramadura so years ago, has now en-
tirely disappeared from those regions. 1t
is still to be found in Algeria and Mo
rocco, and the ichneumon, or meloncillo,
which was once SO very common and
was the great favorite of all Spaniards
before the introduction of the domestic
cat, is now extremely rare. The Barbary
ape, too, which is now only to be found
in Gibraltar, where it is maintained
with the greatest difficulty, was once
very common in Spain. Globe

A Relentless Hyena.

A well known Austin gentleman found
himself in very embarrassing position.
He had left his money at home, and not
nickel or car ticket could he find
in his clothing He was about to leave
the bobtail car when gentleman, real
gentleman, with a sinister cast of counte-
nance, rendered him a nickel. He gladly
accepted it and dropped it into the box.
The grateful party then shook his UNI
known benefaetor's hand, thanking him
for the confidence and accommodation,
and asked his address so he could return
the money.
