of Illness Discontinued.
In accordance with the opinion of their
attorney, heretofore mentioned. the Dis
trict Commissioners have revoked the order
of August a. 1888, which authorized the
health officer to issue permits to prevent
the passage of vehicles in neighborhoods
where persons were SO seriously i'll as to
make such steps necessary.
The attorney for the District in response
to an inquiry Of the health officer, rendered
an opinion to the effect that the authority
of the Commissioners to allow such per-
nlits to be issued is doubtful, at least. The
health officer thereupon recommended that
The issuance of the permits be suspended
until Congress shall have had an opportun-
ity to regulate the matter by law. This
recommendation the Commissioners have
approved, and it is expected that they will
invite the attention of Congress to the
matter, with, perhaps, a recommendation
that legislation covering the subject be en-
acted. Meantime. no more of such permits
will, It Is understood, be issued.

Plenty of Gold.


AT the close of last month, the United
States treasury and its branches held
STA, los, 1886 in gold coin and bullion
the largest amount in the history of the
treasury department and S76,OOOOOO
more than at the close of 1899. 1t would
not be surprising to see the figures grow
to half billion in the near future.
AT the time of the last report OF the
national banks, they held in gold about
S200,000,000 exclusive of gold certificates.
Add to these amounts the holdings of
state banks and private corporations,
firms and individuals, and the estimated
stock of gold in the country, in coin and
bullion, is nearly 81, 100000. This is
nearly half billion more than the esti-
mated supply of gold in the country at
the close of 1895.
The vast increase in the gold supply
has wiped out the last available argu-
ment against gold standard.

SUNDAY EXCURSIONS.
The Christian Endeavorers Desire to
Have Them Stopped.

Niles, Mich, Dec. 4.-The Christian
Endeavor convention of southwest

Benton Harbor, threatens to do that
city a great injury. The delegates
having decided to petition the incom-
Ing legislature to restrict and prohibit
The Sunday railroad excursions, Sc pre-
valent the past summer, aim to pre-
vent the visitation of the thousands Of
excursionists who come from all parts
of Indiana during the summer months
to visit Benton Harbor and st. Joseph
and incidentally get a glimpse of Lake
Michigan.
AS a rule the Sunday excursion
trains referred to are patronized by
the middle and lower classes, who can
not well get away during the week
Hundr eds of workmen from the glass
factories throughout the gas belt of
Indiana, together with their families,
are among the pleasure seekers who
take advantage of the Sunday excur-
sions on the Big Four to enjoy the
balmy lake breezes. 1t is not an un-
usual thing to see as many as half a
dozen excursion trains pass through
this city on a Sunday in the summer
months, bound for Benton Harbor and
st. Joseph. The outpouring runs high
into the thousands and thus Indiana
fills these Michigan towns to overflow
ing on every Sunday, from the time
that the excursions commence to run,
early in the spring, till late in the
fall.
Largely to these excursions is at
tributed the vast increase in popula-
tion that the city of Benton Harbor
has enjoyed during the past few
years, outstripping by far all other
cities in Berrien county. In visiting
the city many of the excursionists be-
come favorably impressed with the
place and locate there.

The True Northerner cheerfully sup
ports the candidacy of Chief Justice
Robert Montgomery for denomination
and re election to the bench of the Mich
igan supreme court. Judge Montgomery
is in the prime of life and professional
vigor and usefulness. His career as a
judicial officer has been distinguished
and satisfactory, and such as to com
mend him to the favorable consideration
of the people. Naturally and properly,
he desires the endorsement of renom-
ination and election to another term on
the bench, and we believe the honor
should be accorded him. Western Mich
igan is entitled to representation in the
supreme court, and Judge Montgomery
should be continued there.

Obituary.

Mr.. Stephen &. McEntee died Thanks
giving morning, November 20. He had
been ia feeble health for some time and
the end was not unexpected.
He was born at Perry, Wyoming
county, N. Y, October 20, 1923. His
early life was spent in Wyoming and AL
legheny counties and along the Hudson
river. He came To Michigan IN 1863,
with his wife and three small children,
and settled on farm in Antwerp, two
miles east of Paw Paw on the territorial
road, where except for short time, he
resided until his death. He was an en-
ergetic and thorough farmer, and took
pride in his profession. He was a char
ter member of the first farmers club or
ganized in this locality and always took
an active interest until failing health pre-
vented. He was also a member and regu-
lar attendant of the Presbyterian church
of Paw Paw.
The funeral was held Sunday after
noon at the home, conducted 10y his SON
