The township Bonds.

Voters of Paw Paw township should
understand that in voting the SoO,OOO OF
township bonds next Wednesday they
are only fighting fire with fire, and pre-.
pairing Ia meet South Ravens county
seat proposition. On an even basis, The
True Northerner does not believe there
is the slightest doubt as to the county
seat remaining in Paw Paw. 1t would
| take, in our judgment, very substantial
inducement indeed to persuade the voters
of the county to do themselves the in
justice of removing the county seat to
South Haven.
There is not taxpayer in Paw Paw
township who cannot afford to pay 394
per cent of his assessed valuation with
! interest added, spread over the next %
years, rather than to see the county seat
moved from this village. Removal
would inflict upon every property owner
an immediate loss in the market value
of his property far greater than the per-
centage of tax to be voted.
Fifty thousond dollars would not be-
gin to represent the depreciation in value
to the real estate of the township if re-
moval should carry, to say nothing of the
very heavy loss on some classes of per
sonal property.
The True Northerner hopes to see a
practically unanimous vote for the town
ship bonds next Wednesday.
No voter should misunderstood the
proposition: 1t is to vote not to exceed
$4,000 of township bonds, bearing not
to exceed four per cent interest, payable
$1,000 per year, with privilege of paying
all after 10 years, for the purpose of pur
chasing a site and aiding in the construc
ton of county buildings, the election tC
be held Wednesday, March 81
South Haven is to hold a special cleo
ton on an exactly similar proposition
and will doubtless vote the bonds. Paw
Paw must do likewise.
The True Northerner has yet to hear {
voter of this township say he would no
vote for the bonds.

A Voice from WaverlY.

Will the county seat be moved?
If we believe the South Haven Tribune
and its people in the extreme corner of
the county, | should say yes. But as an
honest, impartial voter, for the best in
terest of the people of the county, every
thing considered, | shall vote no. | do
not think with all the electric roads they
are building "in the air" that they will
catch any votes from Waverly or Almena.
1t looks queer TO man in the country
that they should build road through
Waverly and Almena three weeks before
town meeting. The people of Waverly and
Almena will thank South Haven for the in
terest they take in Jus" WHEN THEY GET
THE ROAD BUItTi, but we shall keep right
on going to Paw Paw, as the county seat
will stay at that place if our votes will
keep it there, as there are as good roads
to go on as there are in the state, and
better roads than South Haven ever can
have out of the lake sand of which her
BEAUTIFUL VILLAGE has got surplus.

IT IS ONLY FAIR.
[Conttnued from ISL page

Continued from ISL pdge.)
The Tribune then sums up its table as
follows:
Total number of probate cases for
north eight townships, 76." There were
really but II in the townships enumerated
as the "north eight" but such trifling
error cuts no figure when the Tribune is
trying to score point in favor of South
Haven.)
Total number of probate cases for 10
southeast townships 81 Corrected
figures are So
We have not deemed it necessary to
reproduce the Tribune's figures in the
bold black faced type used 10y the Tribune,
as the matter is not of sufficient import
ance to demand it.
Just why the Tribune calls the town
ships in the first half of its table "the
north eight townships" it does not eX-
plain. 1t will be observed that Hart
ford, which is really one of the south
eight townships, is classed as one of the
north eight" while Arlington, entirely
north of the center and in the center Of
the county east and west, is classed as
one of the ten southeast" townships.
But to increase the number of cases was
what the Tribune was after, and to ac-
complish that end it needs must claim
Hartford with nine and reject Arlington
with one, as the Tribune had figured out
the matter.
! But there is not an intelligent person
| in the county who does not know that
! the township of Hartford is much more
accessible to Paw Paw than to South
! Haven 10y wagon road, and equally SO by
rail, and that it is to Paw Paw instead
of to South Haven that the public bust
ness of Hartford is naturally tributary.
The True Northerner has full faith that
the vote of the electors of that township
will overwhelmingly prove the correct
ness of such statement.
Again, by what course of reasoning
does the Tribune class, in addition to
Arlington, the townships of Lawrence,
Keller, Hamilton, Waverly and Almena
as being among the "ten southeast"
townships of the county?
That all the townships enumerated IN
the last half of the Tribune's table are
naturally tributary to Paw Paw rather
than to South Haven is true and the
argument of the tribune comedies it;
but it is piece of sublime assurance to
claim the townships of Bloomingdale,
Pine Grove and Hartford as portion of
South Ravens territory.
! A table showing the probate cases for
! the wear 800 arising in Territory which
by reason of proximity and accessibility
might reasonably be said to be located
within the natural jurisdiction of either of
the two villages would read as follows:

A GOOD ARGUMENT.
PAW PAWS TERRITORY PAYS A BIG PART
OF THE CoUNTY's TAXES.

Editor of The True Northerner:
AS was reading the papers with re-
ference TO the county seat, was think
ing of who would pay for new county
buildings.
Now, Mr.. Editor, if South Ravens map
and division of territory are correct, then
(by the equalization of 1899 Paw Paw
territory would pay tax of S303370O,
and South Haven territory would pay
only 4,66250 making an excess in
favor of Paw Paw of Sl0.675. Who pays
for the county buildings?
Take Paw Paws map, and then it will
appear that Paw Paw territory would
pay S44 400, while South Haven would pay
$4,000, an excess in favor of Paw Paw of
S2S, 800.
Now if South Haven has any claim by
the census, Paw Paw has claim by the
assessment.
Fellow citizens, who must pay the bills
largely? Let us locate the county seat
where in the future the mileage of super
visors, jurors and witnesses will be less
expensive to your pockets because of
less miles of travel. Look to your in
terests for the present and for the years
to come, and vote for Paw Paw as the
county seat.

enumerated, there were four cases the
location of which the records do not de
termine and five cases from outside the
county, making total of 1873 for the year.
The True Northerner thinks, on the
whole that it Is quite as apt to be sure
of its facts as is the Tribune.

The foregoing figures concede the town
ship of Bangor to South Haven. Ii it be
true, however, as the Tribune argues,
that the people are DESTROYS of travelling
by rail (they would travel that way in
preference to wallowing through the sand
if the county seat should go to South
HAVEN, then they are just as near-a
trifle nearer to Paw Paw than TO South
Haven.

other, the facts properly presented show
large preponderance in favor of Paw

The Hartford Times labors on be- half of Miss Hathaway, the blind nurse, is bearing good fruit. The fund started by the Times has now reached nearly $5,OoO. When contributions are all in the amount will be given to Miss Hatheway, the income of which it is hoped will be enough to support her comfortably. The young woman lost her sight from a disease which she contracted from patient she was nursing at the Hartford hospital. It is really sad case, and the Times editors deserve the thanks not only of Miss Hathaway, but of the people or Hartford generally, for the good work the paper has done on behalf of the young woman.

MT McKinley's dilatoriness in nam ing a new commissioner of pensions has put the republican opponents of Commissioner Evans in a very ugly humor and they are letting out cam paign secrets. Corporal Tanner, who has been prominent in the fight against Evans, said: '.I do not know whether it is fact that is known to the public or not, but it is true nevertheless that the national republican committee, pri- or to the last election, promised faith fully that MT Evans would be retired from the office of pension commission CT upon the beginning of President Me Kinley's second administration, in case of his reelection. We have that prom ise in black and white It is in the form of a letter written by the nation al committee to General Sickle and he still has that communication" The ''corporal'' intfmated that it was only by making that promise that the com mittee succeeded in keeping the sol dier vote in line for Mckinley, and that if the promise was not soon re- deemed, there would be trouble, and lots of it, in the ranks of the g. 0. p. Evans says he won't resign, and MT Mckinley seems disinclined to push him out. There the matter now stands.

FOREST PARK.

The pefformance of Ishafnss Dcto- rooms atsthe Forest park theafef last night was one of the best ever given at that popular resort. There was Ia good sfzad crowd of spectators present. and the several acts, the singing and the speciality performances, received the most enthusiastic applause. The members of the company are experts in their line of business and have en- tertained thousands during their ca reer on the stage. The performance is nearly and hour and three-quarters long and is exceptionally entertaining. Performances will be given every af- tefnoon and evening this week.
 There2'will be band concert at the park tonight and the usual attractions will beathere. Mime De1maine, the palmists-is meeting with much success and is certainly satisfying those who call on her. The big merry-go-round is one of the most popular attractions at the park and is meeting with great success. The bowling alley and the row boats and launches are well pat ronized, and there are other sources of amusement for those who visit this cool and delightful spot. North Main street cars run to the park entrance.

THE IRON MANS STORY.

-g -=
 Do you remember. the span over the South Channel at Cornwall, Ontario, in 1898? can tell you exactly the time it was almost noon, on the 9th of Sep tember, on Tuesday-when the pier gave way. There were sixteen men killed in that. The bridge was almost finished and was ready to turn over to the railroad people in week or two It had the three camel-back spans, and it's piers were supposed to be on blue hard pan. A coffer dam had been built over one of these and filled up with concrete and cement. Big, solid blocks of stone had been put upon that.
 We had been given the foundations for it all right, and we'd put our iron work on that. There was big traveller up, and when the pier gave way, and two spans crumbled with crack, the traveller, of course, came down. One man on it never tried to jump, and rode the traveller as it fell hanging on. to cord (of steel.) He was never hurt. That particular steel bar happened to stop ten feet away from the water, and he nimbly climbed off,
 Once said Billy, returning to his "reminiscences, "a man I knew, who was working on the ridge of an iron house roof, lost his hold and commenc- ed to slide down the corrugated iron.- It was slide of about twenty five feet to the edge and then came a drop of fifty feet, as he knew, on some heaps of scrap-iron. Down he went, and just at the edge rivet caught his cordu- roys and held him there.'' Leslie's Monthly for July.

Protests from business organizations

Protests from business organizations and Influential yindiyisauads have brought the administration to a realiz- ing sense of the blunder Secretary Gage made in inviting the present tariff war with Russia. It is not, of course, acknowledged to have been a case of blunder. On the contrary. it has been officially announced that MT Mckinley and all the cabinet endorse Secretary Gage. But, that it is really recognized as a blunder, is shown from the fact also officially announced, that Secre- tary Hay has, under instructions, ex- plained the matter to the Russian gov ernment, with the hope of being able to bring about a satisfactory re-adjust- ment of the matter If Secretary Gage was right, why should the diplomacy of the state department be called in to straighten out what has followed rightful acts? This administration very frequently makes the mistake of undertaking the intelligence of the pub lie.

In that case the re suit would be settled from the begin ming, and continued sittings would be a mere farce Get the best possible man in every town, and then send him free of all restraint to use his best Judgment in a complicated and serious matter. Admit that he knows as much and cares as much for his town and his state as the people who elect him a delegate.

It may not require vaca- ton at the seashore. the country or the mountain, but it does require some thing to eat in the absence of the fam fly; and it's needs deserve consideration. The family that will not attend to it's cat does not deserve to have one.

Senator Depew hasn't said that he started the third term boom just to give the president an opportunity to kill it, and he has thereby overlooked a bet.
 Senator Elkins has thrown a brick into the group of senatorial candidates for president by calling attention to the fact that membership in the senate has seemed to place hoodoo on high CT aspirations.

goods which it now has to get along without, thereby making business still better, and buy goods which now have to go abroad, and must keep others in those countries out of employment, Who 1n turn -fOcks to our shores, and When they get here are obliged to bring our wages still lower in order to exist themselves
 Shorten the hours of labor, and if one hour per day is not sufficient to create demand for labor, shorten still more until labor can obtain enough wages to buy it's share of the goods it produces. And even though the price or goods might rise, labor, even then, through being in demand, would re- celVe a much larger proportionate snare of what it produces than we now do, to say nothing of not having to work so many hours. And the large volume of business which manufacture CT would handle would help to, if not entirely, compensate the extra expense ne would be under. And even if it dld not, 1t is only just, and for the good of and the perpetuation of the business of the country that labor should receive larger share of what 1t creates. Also better treatment than being mere subjects, and almost saves, or their employer and practi- cally at his mercy, making it necessary for labor to combine and move togeth- CT. So the much hated labor union is born.
 Shorten the workday and force the payment of price and one-half for overtime, so as to discourage the over tune practice which keeps others out of employment. Shorten the workday until all have a share of the work be- ing done, then bring on your foreign trade if you wish, and labor, being in demand, will be able to get it's share of the extra work done, instead of do Ing the extra work as now and getting bare living, while some of our capi- talists become enormously wealthy.
 Some may think they see objections to the introduction of these principles on account of foreign trade, foreign immigration, etc, but all of these points may be covered, only it would also cover your whole paper to go over them all. But they can be cov- cred, nevertheless, and the more it is boiled down the more the shorter WOrkdayi principle proves to be just, and an industrial necessity, and for the benefit of the people in general
 In some lines of work it would never be possible to have as short hours of labor as in others. But where such is the case they could obtain better wages in proportion to the longer hours on account of there being a gen eral demand for labor and not so many trying to crowd into their places
 In short, the more desirable other trades become the less his or mine will be crowded. These things have believ- ed in bringing about through legisla- ton, so as to do it more uniformly and without disturbing business. But ii legislation on these matters is to be continually blocked by the capital ists-then we must resort to the less desirable, less profitable, more busi- ness distressing method, of striking for the much-needed change I thank you for allowing me so much space and conclude with much still unsaid on the subject.
