Miss Anna G. Peacock of West Seb-
eva, Michigan, is visiting her brother.
Superintendent A. S. Peacock, whom
she had not seen for more than sixteen
years. Her arrival last Saturday
evening was quite a pleasant New
Years surprise for his family.
The following notice once appeared
in rural journal: eff any subscriber
finds line in his paper he does not
! like, and can't agree with, if he will
bring his paper to the office, and point
out the offending line, the editor will
take his scissors and cut it out for
him."
The dance given by the Woodmen
lodge at COllyer in the q. A. r. hall
was a grand success. The supper was
served at the Railroad house, of
which, thirty couple took supper. A
jolly time reported by all. They re-
turned home at break of morn and
/ hoped there soon would be another
one.
Mr.. G. W. F. Street has sold his
hardware stock to John Spena and J.
J. Karaus. Mr.. Street is one of the
old settlers, having lived here and
been in business as long or perhaps
longer than any other BUSINESS man
in our city. The new firm are young
men, energetic and well known. They
will, no doubt, increase the already
/ large trade of the house.

Commissioner Swiggett was again
at the mercy of the ''long end" OF the
/ ~; LOT = e
order for the Independent to arise in
its puissant might and defend the
rights of the taxpayers. 1t should
condole with Mr.. Swiggett on account
of his helplessness in this aggravating
situation. 1t should compliment
him for his effort to put on the
brakes" Force of habit, alone, should
impel it to this course.
Next to low taxes the best thing we
can have is to keep the money at
home. These road petitions and
counter petitions are very etficacious
in that way. The surveyor and view
erS get a pull out of them and the
more we have of them the more they
cost and the better it is--for some.
Making partisan affair of public
business also helps to keep up the cir
culation and brings some business to
the county seat. It's an ill wind that
blows no good and there is no loss
without a little gain to some one,
past or present.
The new board of county commits
sioners will meet and organize next
Monday. A part of the business TO
be done, or usually done at this meet ]
ing, is to let the county printing, APP
point associate examiners of teachers
and, perhaps, contract with a county
physician and health officer. A new
pop doctor should get here Sunday
night or Monday morning. Then if
the Independent will call around and
see how much it will take to keep us
from bidding on the county printing |
the whole thing will be fixed.
