THE ScRIVEN DITCH.
ALothsr Move In That Celebrated Case
A K, hearing OF the Whoie Case
Probable.

Gratiot has ease which bids fair to be
as long drawn out as the celebrated case
mentioned by Dickens, of Jandyce "
Jarndyce and as equally Improbable to the
parties. \ short time ago what was thought
to he the last step in the famous Scriyen
ditch ease was taken when the bondsmen
and the plaintiti Aylesworth, agreed upon
the amount the former were To pay. By
this agreement the bondsmen were 10 pay
5000 and be relieved from any further re-
sponsbilitr and the balance OF the judge
ment S7420.3o, the original judgement and
interest, was to be assessed against the land,
benefited by the drain. October Sd, Il
mandamus was ia.3ed directed to the board
of supervisors the codutv clerk and prose-
cutting attorney orderin. them 10 spread
that sum upon land lying in the townships
of New Haven, Newark and Arcadia in the
following sums. New Haven, Sl05o.69;
Newark. Si544 Is and Arcadia, SlS25. y q.

The City OF Midland In Danger Of a Great
Boom.
The following from the Midland Repub-
lican OF last week show, that our uciehbor
in the northeast is in considerable danger Of
a boom OF no small proportion. 1t is to be
hoped that the Republican is in possession OF
all the fact. aud that they may pan out as
expected: Last week Thursday Mr. +. :
Nanlieu, mining expert OF Bay City, and
Mr. Thompson, of an extensive steel manu-
featuring concern OF Detroit, were i'm the
city looking at the iron deposit, which are
being examined bv Mr., Trempcr, and their
finding, were very encouraging. Mr..
Thompson is connected with an organization
which has - 100000 back Of it, and he
seemed to be very much pleased with the
prospects here OF obtaining metal i'm good
quantities The surface stratum of iron is
declared to be Of the very finest quality, and
Mr.. Thompson said if the substratum could
be found for which they are now drilling,
that 800 men could be put at work inn
mediately They are now drilling ON the
Stanford farm about one-hai mile from VI.
II Stanford old house. Last week ten
inch vein of coal wa, struck at depth Of
p feet and Tuesday OF thi, week another
OF about the same thickness was found at
81 feet Tweuty-six feet from the surface
30 foot vein Of gravel wa, encountered
Mr. Trcmpcr i. confident that he will soon
strike the substratum of iron There is a
probability of Mr. Thompson moving the
great plant into thi, vicinity, if it should be
found as hoped for, as he said fuel could
easily be obtained from the Monitor mine
in Bay county, whereas now they secure it
from Pennsylvania.

There is one thing that earnest Repub-
licans must make up their minds for;
and that is hard, long battle gwith the
forces OF discomfort, socialism and dis
turbance that have captured the Demo.
cratic convention at Chicago. 1t is easy
for those Of us who live in the East and
know Eastern sentiment to view with
complaoency and satisfaction the rent
which is opening in the Democracy, and
the prospect that thousands of Eastern
Democrats will desert their party. But
this cheering fact is only one side of the
matter. Before this country can be re.
esta blished In its old prosperity there
remain two all-important things for the
Republican party to do. The tariff must
be revised so that the revenue of the
government may be made adequ ate, and
so that the inequalities which have in
jured our industries may be remedied,
and the currency must be established in
such an impregnable position that the
free silver heresy cannot find vantage
points from which to assail it. Although
distinct propositions, the two go hand in
hand. The silver Republicans in the
Senate have made tariff legislation con-
ditional upon silver legislation. This
renders it necessary for the real Repub-
lican sound money sentiment OF the
country to be represented by reliable
majority in House and Senate and by a
President in the White House. We be-
lieve that tho President and House will
be gained this fall; but 1t now seems
probable that still another battle must
be fought for the Senate. Before the sill
Yer question assumed so radical phase
it was thought that the Republicans
might have the Senate after the Fourth
of next March. They may NORMALLY,
but reallyathe silver earthquake has so

guard the currency at the same time. OF
course this situation will mean that the
next Republican President will have great
trials. He will probably be confronted
With deficit ana hostile Senate. The
| situation will demand that he have the
sympathy land support of Republican
sentiment in the two trying years before
the next political e e battle. and
that there be an united front
in that all importantly battle for the
possession of the Senate. 1t is well
enough for Republicans to bear in mind
what must be done. The battle will be
long as well as hard; but in the end the
victory will be permanent and glorious
