Jason Woodman of Paw Paw requests
The True Northerner to announce his
candidacy for the republican nomination
for state senator in this district, com
posed of Van Buren, and Allegan counties.
The nomination will come to Van Buren,
county this year, and the man securing
the support of Van Buren, will be the
party nominee. Mr.. Woodman is as we'll
known to the members of the party as
any man in the county, he being the
present chairman of the county com
mittee and familiar figure in conven-
tions and on the stump.

Rev. w. p. Hines checked satchel
containing POP sermons and the railroad
company lost it. The author-that Is II
they we're orginal-thought they were
worth on an average of five dollars each
and asked the company to settle on that
basis. The company demurred and the
parties arbitrated, choosing three other
clergymen, who were presumed to be
experts, as arbitrators. They Jumped
the lot at $3.50, about Sl.23 apiece. 1t is
not stated whether the arbitrator had
ever heard the missing sermons or not
There are some sermons that would be
cheap at five dollars and others that
would be dear at the adjudicated price
or even at % cents apiece, to say nothing
about the dollar.

If the republicans of Van Buren,
county do not select the best man for the
state senatorship, it will not be because
of lack of acquaintance with the two can

not two republicans in the county better
known to the voters than G.. G. Phillips
and Jason Woodman. And may the best

Editorial Comment.

WHEN the prophet Elijah was on earth
he was so poor and destitute that the
Lord sent the ravens to feed him, that
he might not die of starvation. When
John the Baptist, whom Christ referred
to when he said "Eliiah hath already
come" was heralding the coming Messiah
he lodged in the wilderness and ate
locusts and wild honey. But John
Alexander Dowie, the modern ELIJAH
against whom Judge Tuley has rendered
a decree appointing a receiver in Zion
is, according to his counsel, ten times a
millionaire. The world moves and times
have changed since the days of the great
prophet or of the forerunner OF Christ
A penniless prophet would not cut a
very wide swath in the Goth century

 But whin I come to think iv it, guess perhaps I'm wrong. Ye can't be a rivolutionist in a silk hat an a long coat. Riv'lution Is wurruk fr tn shirt sleeves. A riY'lution can't be bound be tn rules iv tn game because it's again tn rules iv tn game.

 'ATh' Irish wud have no throub1e with tn English if tn English were Irish. Tn throuble with Englishmen governin' Ireland is that they're English. An English men niver gets to know an Irish man. They don't speak tn same language. An Englishman can un- dherstand a German, a Turk, a Chinyman, naygur, or an h. dyan, but he don't know amy more what an Irishman Is talkin' an thinkin' about thin what tn angels in lHiven ar're sayin'. Whats tn use iv con-varsin' with him? Give him a belt in tn jaw. That's language so gin'rally un- dherstood that ye niver need pocket ditchnry to make it out. An Irishman is always dhreamin' dh1 cams. If ye cud get into tn mind iv hungry Irishman an hungry Englishman, ye'd find tn Irishman was thinHin' about a hanket iv tn Gods with him in seat number wan singh song, an th' Englishfnan was reflectin' tn tn smell iv tn thripe down tn sthreet.
 An Englishman don't know they'se amy such things as wrongs in tn wurruld. He sets down in front iv his dinner an says he to himsilf: What jolly wurruld this is!

yers, each of whom hoped to be States Attorney some day when the Voters were not looking.
 This eminent Disciple of the Game was the one who picked out the Candidate for County Treasur- CT. There was another aspirant who had a petition signed by 14,- 900 Property Owners, but when it came to a showdown at the Primaries he had only seventeen votes and eight of those were thrown out by the Judges because one of the would-be Delegates had his name misspelled. Which shows what can be done to the In- dependent when he tries to buck the Machine.
 The Candidate for County Treasurer yielded to the entreat- ies of his Friends and permitted the Use of his Name as soon as he had it figured out to him that by freezing on to the Interest on Public Funds he could rake off about 10000 Louies per Annum. AS soon as the free and untram- meled Convention had named him by Reclamation he fought his way through the Cigar Smoke and made a Speech of Acceptance. He said that he had only one Ob- Ject in Life and that was to give the Taxpayer Square Deal, and Trusts were a growing Danger, likewise 1t was our Duty to spread the Blessings of Freedom in the far-off Islands of the Paci- fic, inasmuch as a reasonable Tar if Revision seemed imperative, because the workman has a right to organize in the interests of Ar bitration.

 Now, the Off Year in Politics is no Hungarian Joke to the Mark who has kissed goodbye to his shekels and taken a Gamblers Chance. He wants to hold down a Leather Chair in a Mahogany Office in the County Building and have a Push Bell in front of him and a Box of Perfectos on the Roll Top and draw about eight Samoleons a Minute while the Cheap Help does all the heavy Work.
 Of every ten Patriots who are now throwing vitrified Brick at the Money Power, at least nine are hoping that some day the grateful Voters will rise up and compel them to use Leather Chairs.
 As for the would-be Treasurer, after he had spent $ovU to see his Picture on Telegraph Poles and had bought Tickets to some eigh- ty-five Social Hops, to say nothing of what he had slipped the Boss, he felt that If he did not land in the County Building the whole Fabric of the Government would begin to unravel.
 Under ordinary Conditions he was a Chilly Proposition who failed to recognize any one who did not wear a Tall Hat and be- long to four or five Clubs. But

 Being convinced of the impossIbi1ity of supporting his large family at any of the unskilled felonies, the man hit on the unusual expedient of seeking honest en- ployment
 But" he reflected, "if I seek such em- ployment under my right name Bill Jones, nobody will hire me, while if I give my name as Hank Smith, say, shall be jailed for getting a job by false pretenses. Dear mel What shall do? Oh, I know. I'll just Incorporate, and seek employment as the Hank Smith Corporation. Then it's nobodys business what I do''

 He was nominated the Night before the Convention by large and red Mind-Reader, who knew what the People wanted before they found it out for themselves. He couldn't have been elected Constable on his own Hook, as he had record that included Grave Robbing, Brace Faro and Second Story Work So the only thing left for him to do in Politics was to name the Candidates and then, if the Combination went through, get first Whack at the Contracts and put all of his High Binders on the Pay Roll.
 He was editorially roasted but, just the same, when a Representa- tive Citizen wanted to run for anything he found it advisable to go around and place himself right with the frog-faced Boss.
