PACKSVILLE POINTERS.

Packsville, July II, 1S96'-We are
having fine seasons, and crops through
this section are very promising, cot
ton especially so. There are some
very fine lands around Packsvllle
suitable to the raising of almost any
kinds of crops, raised in South Caro-
lima, and from what we can learn o:
tobacco growing we have the best
kind of soil in and around Packsville
to grow it, and yet not one of oul
farmers will take the lead in growing
this paying crop. We would advise
them to 60 to Manning and see the
tobacco warehouses that are being
built there, and to look at some ol
the beautiful tobacco farms near the
place, and we believe they would
return home fully decided to raise
this paying weed. If the farmers in
and around Packsville ever expect
to get any of that gold and free silver
they are continually discussing about
on the streets they had better go to
planting tobacco.
Rev. c. NJ. Billings, pastor OF the
Baptist church at this place, has

Mere round Not t:u,ly.

The trial of Frank Hahn and Edward
Wills took place last Saturday afternoon
in Justice Sowden's court and the defend
ants were found not guilty The follow
ing Jury tried the case: q. Martini,
Charles Perry. Rat Shea, John Rowe, Ed
ward Rowe aud Charles Wagner.
Village Attorney A, W. Kerr appeared
for the people and the defendants had no
attorney. Four witnesses and the de
iendants were examined and clearly
proved that the men fired the candle and
they, in fact, acknowledged committing
the deed. The men were arrested under
the village ordinance, prohibiting the fir
ing Of fife crackers, roman candles, etc,
within the corporate limits, and the de-
fendants claimed that under the ordi-
nance any one celebrating Independence
day could be punished for violation Of
the ordinance. They also claimed that
the Browne company used over 100 of
these during that evening, The defend
ants said they were calling for special
ties aud that Mr. Browne sent the candle
down 10 them aud said, shoot il your
selves" The jury deliberated but few
minutes, when they reached a decision al
not guilty.

That Railroad once More.

CALUMET, Mich, March %, 1896.
To the EditOr-Can you inform Us why
so few OF the Red Jacket and Laurium
business men attended the mass meeting
held III Hancock Tor the purpose of agIta-
ting railroad matters. Is il that the
large majority OF them think we do not
need a competing road, or Is it that they
prefer letting the other fellow do tue
work, and come round for their share OF
the benefits II there are any,
Here IN the metropolis of cOpperdom,
where the benefit oil "a competing roud
would be most felt, and whose support is
absolutely necessary TO obtain il. what
are we doing To keep the good work
along? Nothing.
IL will require concerted aud continued
action on tie part OF every resident of
this county TO have another road built
To- this point. There is no doubt but
that there Is an understanding existing
between the d., ;. 5. q A. aud the e. NJ.
K st. L. railroads, relative to the freight
Tor the copper country most probably
the latter roads are paid bonus by tue
d., ). >. d A. railroad to stay out of
Houghton county. Railroads are built
and operated Tor the money there il in
them, and II we cannot give facts and fig-
ures TO convince the managers Of the
c., NJ. & st. =. or c. N. w. railroads
that there Is more net profit in dong the
copper country business entirely on their
own lines, than there is in hauling to
Champion or Negaunee aud taking a
bonus from the D., S. =. & A. railroad for
the balance, we will not succeed in get
ting either of the roads 90 extend their
lines to this county. The committee ap-
pointed TO wait on the managers Of the
coveted roads, is made up of the strong
eat men that could be selected. but they
will have to go on their mission armed
with undisputed statistics IA TO what is
here tor another road, il they are to
make an impression. Now is the time
Tor Red Jacket business men to- get 10
work, let them form Business Mem as
sociation, get together and do all they
can to gather such information as will toe
an aid to the committee.
A Business Mems association would be
good thing TO have permanently i'm our
town, there are many things in which
such body working together might ben
eft and improve It,
Mr.. Vivian, when he was nominated
Tor president last time, said, IF am RI.

Jacket Here is an opportunity to do
something that will be "A benefit TO Red
Jacket and perhaps TO all Of Houghton
county. Let hlm call meeting at an
early date and organize a Business Men {.
association aud endeavor to insti more
public spirit into every resident. Red

ted at August Lind s.saloon TO have a

there that the disturbance occurred.
The Firms started to quarrel about /
O'Clock and were put out of the house by
Lind, after which they began shooting
and broke the saloon window, one bull
let also entered the house next to Lind's.
The noise outside continued for some
time, but about 3 o'clock, when it became
quiet, some of the men in the saloon
went outside aud found Beltonen lying
short distance from the house and APP
parently dead. These men were about
half drunk themselves and, thinking Bel
tonen was frozen, brought him Inside and
put him beside the stove to thaw out
and proceeded TO enjoy themselves.
Soon afterward one of the men went to
look at Beltonen and said he thought
the man was dying and that they had
better send for IA physician. According
ly, DR.. Hosking, of the Allouez was sent
for, but when he arrived the man was
beyond earthly hope.
Beltonens skull was fractured, prob
ably by large club which lay near him
when he was found aud he also had
large scalp wound, which, from the APP
pearance OF 1t, had been inflicted by a
dirk knife.
Deputy Sheriff Wilson and Justice
Thorp. OF the Allouez, were notified and
went to the Fulton yesterday morning
TO be present at a post norton examina-
ton which was hell by DR.. Hosking.
The examination showed that death was
caused by fracture OF the skull and by
a wound inflicted by a knife. Acoroner's
jury was immediately summoned aud
f'..c'Sed the remains after which it al
iourned Until this evening
Sheriff Mitchell, OF Eagle River was
notified OF the affair and arrived on the
scene yesterday at noon. He arrested
August Lind, proprietor OF the saloon,
Andrew Gabrielson, and two other Firms,
Alex Pesonen and Leander Weldanen
1t is not known whether Lind was i'm
plicated in the unfortunate affair or not,
but he was evidently selling liquor with
out license which would be sufficient
cause for his arrest.
The man was buried this afternoon iu
the Lake View cemetery.
