Fight Is Amusing.

The scrapping and factional fights
among the So called leading democrats
of North and Calumet township at
present is causing no end of amuse-
ment among politicians of both parties
in Crown Point. and general desire
to see it fought to a fnish,' without
Governor MarshaIFs interference" is
evident. The consensus of opinion
here is that if 1t were possible for each
side to give the other good drubbing
and then be so constituted that they
could kick themselves out of county
politics entirely, that a long felt want
and much needed reform could be
accomplished. South of the Calumet
may not count as much in political
strength as its sisters across the
stream, but certainly they have not as
many skeletons to hide, nor bring
them forth at every term of the game.
