A new legislature seldom gets down

The organization, appointment of COM

work in real earnest. The frictions
and factions of 1896 and 1897 in refer

Thoroughly Threshed.

On Thursday morning while operat-
ing threshing machine on Fred Du-
cats place northeast of town, James
Slosser had the misfortune to have one
of his hands drawn into the swiftly re-
volying cylinder. The accident &C.
Cured just as they had started up for
the days work. The hand was literal
ly torn to shreds, and when Drs.
Wight and Pollock arrived, there was
but one best thing for them to do, and
that was the worst for Mr.. Slosser's
future career as workman. The
amputation was made just above the
wrist. By this painful accident he is
deprived of one-half his ability to earn
a living. If this misfortune had come
to q lazy man, it would not seem so
bad; but to a hard working man like
Jim, it seems more than calamity.
If the sympathy of neighbors would
restore the hand lost, Jim would have
O new one in short metre.
On the day previous to the above
mentioned accident, similar one &C.
Cured on the farm of Jos. Middleton.
They were engaged in shredding corn,
and his brother, Harry Middleton, was
feeding the machine. In some man.
ner his left hand was drawn into the
machine, and so badly torn that all the
fingers had TO be removed by amputa-
ton. This leaves Harry almost as des-
titute of working gear as is Mr.. Slosser,
the stub of the hand remaining being
of no practical use in much of the work
which falls to the lot of laboring men
to perform. DR.. Yuill was called and
responded as speedily as possible, but
when he arrived there was naught to
do, save as above stated. 1t is singu-
lar that two accidents of almost SINH
lar nature and consequence, should
happen so near together in both To-
cality and time.

Political Potpie.

Whatever else may be said, none
dare assert that Michigan does not
now own right-away- quick and-nO-
monkeying with-the- buzz.saw set of
law makers.
The man who would sell his vote, or
who would refrain from voting for
money consideration, is unworthy of
citizenship i'll this land of popular
sovereignty.
The time draweth nigh when every
American citizen may walk into the
polling booth, vote as he pleaseS, and
walk out free man, if he has honestly
tried to vote his convictions, and for
the candidates who are his choice.
More legislation upon points de-
manded by the people was accomplish
ed last week by our solons at Lansing,
than was done in the four previous
years. The suggestion has been made
that the date of meetings of our law
making body be changed to each Oct.
/, proceeding each state and general
election.
The people are rejoicing all over the
state over the fact that the constitution
al amendment has been at last given
them to act upon. Whew! how Sticky
and swiftly the charter repeal bill went
through, all hands piling into the peo-
pies band wagon. 1t remains to be
seen whether the needful laws, based
on the amendment, should that be rat
flied at the polls, will pass as Sticky
and swiftly.
laying made up your mind which
party is the best, which platform is
right, and what candidates on the
ticket are the right men to vote for, do
it unswervingly. Let no man, no idle
tale gotten up to deter you from voting
your convictions, and for the cleanest
men, hinder you. Vote as near as you
know how to satisfy your own con-
science, and then go home to peaceful
sleep, knowing that you have done
your duty as free man.
Rev. Thomas. Durr in his sermon
last Sunday morning at the NJ. L.
church discussed upon the need of the
Divine Spirit in church life and work.
He took occasion to say in the course
of the application of his theme to prac-
tical life, that Gods spirit in politics
would transform all parties and party
methods. We do not doubt the par
sons assertion. 1t is too self evident
to admit of question or debate. Never
theless, the way politics are now fash
Toned, even though the spirit was
poured out upon the parties, would it
not be like water poured upon sieve,
fall through and leave only the dry and
rusty meshes of the wire pullers. To
put new wine into old bottles, or new
cloth upon old garments, is method
the Master pronounced unwise. Are
not politics too rotten, too rickety, to
retain the spirit if it was poured into
the political frames.
