The caucus did not desire to nominate
candidate for clerk in opposition to
VIM. ii. Mason, who has served for so
many years to the satisfaction of the
village, and that place on the ticket was
left blank. The ticket is splendid one
throughout, and there is no doubt but
the entire ticket will be elected.
The chairman appointed +. n. Wake
man, Henry Sbaefer and DR.. o. E. Ian

The citizens caucus was held on Tues
day evening. Harry Mcneil was chair
man and +. b. Ocobock secretary. s.

pointed tellers.
The caucus paid tribute to President
Mutchler and to Assessor Warner by
nominating no one in opposition to them
on the citizens ticket. The balance Of
the ticket was nominated as follows:
Clerk, WIN. III. Mason; treasurer, Will
liam Killefer; trustees, Chas. Lake,

Every woman in both the town
ship and village Of Paw Paw
having the qualifications of male
electors, who has property as
sessed for taxes in any part of
said township or village is en-
titled to vote on the question OF
granting the electric railway
franchises, which will be sub
mitted to the people at the com
ing village and township cleo
tons. Women who desire to
vote on these questions, however,
are required to register the same
as male electors.
The village registration board
will be in session at the village
clerks Office on Saturday, March
II, and for the township election
the board of registration will be
in session at the Office Of Bert
Bennett, township clerk, on Sat
urday, April 2.
The Hartford Day Spring, un-
der the heading Country Cou
sins Are Not Voters" states in
it's last issue in substance that
women in the village who possess
the necessary qualifications can
vote on the question, but owing
to an oversight by the last legis-
lature they are barred in the
township.
That, in the opinion Of The
True Northerner, is not an equit-
able and just construction to
place on the question, and it
would seem that Section 4, Arti-
Gle 3, Of the revised constitution
on elective franchise would set
tie the matter. The article re-
ferred to reads as follows:
"Whenever any question is
submitted to a vote of the elect
ors which involves the direct ex-
penditure of public money or the
issue of bonds, every woman
having the qualifications of male
electors, who has property as
sessed for taxes in any part of
the district or territory to be
affected by the result Of such
election, shall be entitled to vote
thereon
Registration notices for women
electors of the township are pub
lished in this issue, and those
who are qualified in Paw Paw
township at least will be per-
mitted to vote on the electric
franchise matter.

How often do you
eat this food?

A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection of
the foods you eat.
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list OF foods recommended; but il the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see FIRST place given to
good oatmeal.
AS matter of fact Great Britain
and Europe come TO us for tremendous
quantities of Quaker Oats because il
represents tothem perfect food, being
the richest in flavor and best in clean
illness and purity, of all oatmeals.

The report of inspectors OF
jail filed in February, 1909, shows
that since their previous report,
made in the month of September
preceding, $50 persons had been
confined in the county jail, of
whom 100 we're convicted of
vagrancv and 26 of drunkenness.
The last similar report, filed one
year later and covering an equal
period of time, shows that 90
persons had been confined in the
same institution, 26 being for
vagrancy and 10 for drunken
ness.

THERE are three nominees On
the village ticket who are sure
of election next Monday. John
Mutchler, nominee for president,
and Jerome G. Warner for as
SCISSOR on the republican ticket
and VIM. H. Mason for clerk on
the democratic ticket have no
opposition. The fact that no
opposing candidates were nom
mated is a tribute to the capabil-
ity of the above named gentlemen
and to the esteem in which they
are held in the community.

THE official reports of the pros
ecuting attorney OF Van Buren,
county for the four years last
past show the number of prose
cutions for drunkenness to have
been as follows: 1906, 217; 1907,
1913; 1908, 1873; 1909, 81. A very
large per cent of the decrease for
1909 is due to the beneficial effect
of the amended local option law.
