EDITORIAL.
The Political situation

Probably many of our readers have,
knowing the long personal friendship that
has existed between Mr.. John Duncan
and the editor, wondered why that gen
tleman's name has not ere this been
mentioned in the columns OF the News in
connection with the office OF delegate at
large, with which his name is now beng
80 often coupled. II any have SO Won
dered, we may state that the News was
backward in coming forward 10 urge the
cause OF Mr.. Duncan simply because the
editor believed that il the politicians OF
Houghton county asked too much at the
hands OF the republicans they might get
left, but as il now appears that the posi-
ton Of delegate at large, heIng purely
honorary and at the same time temper
airy, il would scarcely be fair 10 charge
that Office TO the county from which the
delegate spraDg and would therefore not
be likely to interfere with the aspirations
g lers OF the county who may have IA
zee in their bonnets for political honors;
suCh DciuH tue bplHloh VI tue ituNtAr ~
the party and some OF the candidates
themselves, the News has much pleas
ure in bearing testimony, which, how
ever, in this case may look superhuous, a.
no one will he found TO gainsay il, not
only to the fact that Mr.. Duncan has
worked hard and done much for the re-
publican party in the Upper Peninsula,
but also to hepersonal worth OF the man,
gained from very intimate knowledge
OF him for the past thirty years, or near
ly 80, and that he is fully and fairly en-
titled to any honor that the republicans
OF the State may feel like conierriDg upon
him, and the News will have much pleas
ure in congratulating the gentleman upon
the honor should it be conferred upon
him, which appears to be almost fore

no one could be elected with a bigger
heart or more justly entitled To the hon
orary position and distinction OF being

the New Orleans Charity Hospital
Training School for the purpose of
fitting themselves as professional
nurses, have entered upon their

the following extract from an ex-
tended account in the Picayune of
this famous institution:
The establishment Of the charity
hospital training school opened up
a bright field for young women in

the great central training school of

according to contract, which has already
been fully discussed and we leave the
people to form conclusion. That he took
no more interest in the railroad tax than
any one should or properly could. We
think Bro. Goodwin stepped over the ap-
pirate reservation in the matter; it look
ed that way to a man up tree. The at
torney reported he could not collect ferry
bond. We were assaulted on our bond
because some signed over their ASSESS
ment When he opens the property es-
innate business we are satisfied If he Is.
We are waiting for him to send around a
bale of hay. and have padded the seat of
our trousers"
The above is not explanatory, nor is it
statement of our position. We plead
neither innocence nor ignorance to es-
cape responsibility OF criticism for any
of our official acts, but stand by them
and invite strict search into them all. only
demanding the right 10 be heard in an
swer to the questions or issues that may
be raised. Especially do we decline to
be muzzled by Bro. Dunn and allow HIM
to make distorted statement for us.
Now, we submit to an intelligent pub
lie that his explanatory" squib is vapid
and altogether unintelligible to any one
who does not know the full text of our
answers to his questions. Therefore his
explanation falls fat, and he is convicted
of ''crawfishing" and lodging from the
answers which he so blataptly pretended
he desired. He finds there is wide diff
ference between the facts in the case and
the fancies of his disordered magma
ton, and hence the undignified exposure
of his posterior and plaintive appeal for
us to furnish bale of hay to pad the
