EDITOR RECORD -
Thinking perhaps my farmer friends in
the north part of the county might be
interested in knowing the sentiment OF
the farmers in this section on the
county seat question, | take the liberty
of writing you. There are certain peo-
pie, and Michigan seems TO be full Of
them this year, who are willing to do
anything if the payment can be made by
the tax payers, and the farmers lies
down and submits to the burden, and is
continually being ground down by the
politicions who are in most cases Great
ing these expenses. In the case OF bond
ing the county for $34 900 for a new court
house at Ithaca it seems to most of US who
do not own property in Ithaca to be an
outrage by the people of Ithaca who wish
to keep their town up. Let them wake
up and pay the shot themselves, not ask
the farmers of the county to go into
their pockets and pay for their enter
prises. After such liberal offer from
your citizens Ithaca should do likewise
or drop out Of the game. If the farm.
ers Of this section can rake enough to-
gether to pay their tax this year, when
spring comes and they have chance to
to go to the ballot box and express them
selves as to whether they will pay the
enormous tax that the people Of Ithaca
are trying to impose on them, you will
hear them speak in manner that will
surprise you. 1t is time TO call halt
and this seems good plan to start on.
Ithaca papers have had considerable TO
say of late on excessive taxes and the
poor farmers now watch their course
in this matter and see what sympathy
they express for the tax payers. l may
write you again later as our people are
up to an uncomfortable pitch.
Respectfully yours,
A FARMER.

MARCUS IN 1T.
Big Combination of Lead and Zinc
Mines Formed with Marcus Pol
lasky at the Head of the Organ
izdtiOn.

A dispatch from Kansas City to the
Detroit Free Press on October Gath has
the following to say of a former Alma
man:
"A combination known as the Nation
al Lead, Zinc q Smelter Co., with a
capitalization Of $40 ,000, 900 and with a
surplus of $500, 900 has been formed to
control and work large interests in the
Joplin. G alena district. The concern
was promoted by Marcus Pollasky, pres
ident of the National Mine 90. Of Kan
sas City, who has just returned from
New York, where he succeeded in in
teresting eastern capitalists. AS re-
suit of the organization lead and zinc
stocks will be listed on the stock ex-
changes of New York. Boston and Chi
cago. At present the offices of the COM
pany will be located in Kansas City
Mr.. Pollasky says the Joplin -Galena dis.
trict now produces about seven eights Of
the zinc ore Of the United States and
about one. fourth of the world supply. :"

Uncle Tom at the Opera House. i.

About every so often an Uucle Tom 8
Cabin Co. puts in its appearance, but
just so often the opera house is crowded
to its fullest extent. The majority of
the companies on the road playing this
historic piece put up what is called a
fake show, but not so with the Cum
mings & Alexander company that occu-
pied the boards at the opera house last
Wednesday night. The company did
everything that was advertised, and
more. In the first place the excellent
band carried by the company won the
admiration of everyone and the concerts
on the streets were greatly appreciated
by those who love good music. Second,
the classical music rendered by the or
chestra, under the direction of Prof.
Collins, captured the audience. The
play of Uncle Tom, as put on by the
company, was above the expectations
and the specialties introduced by the
company were above the average. The
saxaphone quartette was especially
fine, while the gun and spear juggling
of Harry Logan was the best ever put
on the stage in this opera house The
managers of the opera house regret very
much that they were not able to cope
with the large crowd that clamored for
admittance but such a crush was not ex-
pected and it was necessary to lock the
doors to keep the people out.

To Bond the County.
The Proposition to Come Before the People
at the Spring Election

AS was expected they would, the
board of supervisors voted on Friday
last to submit a proposition to the voters
Of the county at the coming spring
election to bond the county for $34 900
for the purpose of building new court
house. The vote stood ten to eleven in
favor of submitting the proposition. We
are informed that the village OF Ithaca
will purchase the building used at pre-
sent for this purpose and convert 1t into
a ward school. For this they agree to
pay $6, 600 and this will equal the S4O,-
900 offered by Alma if the location OF
the county seat would be changed to
this place. 1t now remains to be ascer-
tanned if the taxpayers of the county are
willing to go down into their pockets
and pay $34 900 for new court house
when they can have one given to them
just as well. We are Of the opinion that
the aforesaid taxpayers have about all
they can carry at present without adding
any additional burdens, unnecessary
ones at that.

The neWness stands out all over
them and SO does their poorness.
To be honest with you we haven't
very high regard for the rugs.
We don't see exactly how it de-
serves the name of rug, 1t is call
ed a Brusseline. But the colors
are bright they will serve many
purposes perhaps, especially at
the seaside, and what concerns us
most-there seems to be a little
demand for them. They measure
27x54 inches. We have seen
them called sensational offerings
at 80 and $780,, but we couldn't
ask more than .25c.

Floor Covering
The China Mattings

Are the cheaper. The ones
we show are made with straw
gathered from one pot,where the
salt and fresh waters meet, for
more than 400 years. 1t is known
throughout the world as the Lin
Tan Straw. And this is what
makes up our China Mattings. The
difference in prices is accounted
for by the shades in quality.
For nc. in four different de-
signs, continuous warp, remark
ably fine selvedges for the price.
For 15c. all jointless and seam
less, graded straws, sold every
where, as a rule, at 25c, and 3oc.
For 2oc. The difference is
mostly in the patterns-blocks
and checks.
