The true northerner., 1901-02-08

There are some people in Van Buren,
county who take a very inconsistent po-
sition on the county seat question, being
opposed to bonding the county for new
buildings and yet favoring removal to
South Haven.
AS The True Northerner has hereto
fore said, if removal should carry and
the bonds be defeated, the supervisors
would be bound within a year to re-
move the county seat, together with the
public records, regardless of how made
quate or unsafe might be the quarters
they could secure. If the county owned
no buildings at the county seat, the
supervisors would be bound to rent such
quarters as could be found.
Berrien county confronted just such a
a state of affairs when its county seat
was removed to ST. Joseph. The voters
ordered the removal and refused to vote
reasonable appropriation to provide
buildings. At the next meeting OF the
board of supervisors, new proposition
was of necessity submitted, and carried,
and the new buildings cost the taxpayers
upwards of one hundred thousand dol
lars.
Just such condition Of affairs might
be brought about in this county. Should
the removal carry now and the bonds be
defeated, there is not the slightest room
for doubt that much more than 100000
would be spent before the buildings
were finally built. Not only that, but
the enterprising real estate boomers of
South Haven would have the county at
their mercy in the matter of a site-and
they are not made of the stuff to miss
such an opportunity.
Any voter who is opposed to bonding
should surely be opposed to removal.
Itis an unfair and inconsistent position
to favor the removal to South Haven
without making provision for suitable
county buildings there.

South Haven papers boast of the pop
ulation that is adjacent to that town and
by figuring on territory, some of which is
% miles distant from that town and only
~ miles from Paw Paw, they claim 494
more than half the people of the county.
They might have claimed still more sim
ply by enlarging the area. The same
kind of pettifogging argument would
give Paw Paw part of South Haven
itself and all the rest of the county ex-
cept the west half of Covert and the
northwest corner of Geneva. Paw Paw
and the townships that actually adjoin
it contain a population of 1851; South
Haven and the townships that actually
adjoin it contain population of IL ,l37,
difference in favor of Paw Paw of 2,374
If we add Bloomingdale and Pine
Grove, the inhabitants of which are very
much closer to Paw Paw than to South
Haven, we have 17,1i8, difference of D.
oil in favor of Paw Paw, to say nothing
of a large part of Hartford and practical
ly all of Keeler that are all nearer to
Paw Paw than to South Haven.

The dangers of Geographic wooing
are illustrated by a case which came
within my own knowledge a few years
ago. A member of our staff here had
conceived such an affection for a lady
operator in the north of England that
he was %imprudent enough TO send her
a written offer of marriage, without
taking even the precaution of asking
for her photograph.
The offer was promptly accepted,
and the happy lover made a journey
to the north to meet his iancee for
the first time. His infatuation did not
survive the very first glimpse Of her,
and within a very few hours he was
on his way back to town, a sadder and
n wiser man. The last act of this love
drama was messed in a court of
law, and lisillusioned lover had
to pay &4.5O as a penalty for indulg-
ing his imagination and wooing V
the wires.-Tit-Bits
