new LAW GOVERNING
The HANDLING
OF milk

The legislature passed law on
Oct. 9Th which date has been post
poned to Nov. 9th. Milk must be
sold in bottles or containers and la
beled the name of the dairy. The
kind of milk, Whole Milk, Pasturized,
or Standerized, also the percent of
butter fat.
We are reliably informed that the
farmer was the main factor in see
ing that this law was passed by re-
presentatives in the legislature, the
object being to furnish richer milk
and sell more butter fat.
Ohio has always been very lenient
in the inspection of their milk pro-
duct and Milk Plants Michigan
has a very rigid requirements which
are inforced by system of Inspec-
tors. We think the Ohio legisla-
ture are on the right track, as any
thing the people eat and drink should
be produced and sold under clean anC
sanitary conditions, and we are glac
the farmers in the legislature are
giving the matter their attention.

fine themselves to taking conveys,
and attacking at a distance from the
forts, if they should have the ad-
dress to entice the enemy out; but
the impetuosity of the Mackinaw In
dians, and their eagerness to begin
with the nearest, prevailed with the
others to alter their system, the
consequences of which, from the
present appearance of things, may
most materially injure the interest of
these people; both the Mackinaw and
Lake Indians seeming resolved on
going home again, having completed
the belts they carried with scalps
and prisoners, and having no provi-
sion there, or at the Glaze to subsist
upon; so that his Majesty's post will
derive no security from the late
great influx Of Indians into this part
of the country, should they persist in
their resolution of returning so soon.
Captain Elliott writes that they
are Immediately to hold a council at
the Glaze, in order to try if they can

FROM THE REVOLUTION UNTIL 1872

1t is related of Benjamin Franklin
that when he heard someone speak
of the "War of independence" N776)
that he remarked: "6ir, you mean the
Revolution; the war of Independence
is yet to come" The war of 1872
was the fulfllment of his prophecy.
Even after the close of the Revo-
luton, the hope still slumbered IN
the breast of many Englishmen, that
at some future time the American
Colonies would be regained. For
years they held the military post of
Detroit, Mackinaw and Niagara,
after signing the treaty of peace. The
Indians OF the northwest country
were supplied with munitions and
provinder, and were continually in
cited to commit depredations along
the western frontier.
Had not president Washington in
his wisdom curbed the sentiment in
the then Western country, the second
war with Britain would have started
long before it did. He ATTEMPTED
to obtain redress for many depreda-
tions the British were responsible
for, but would go no further. In fact
real peace never came to our country
until after the Treaty of Client.
These facts are brought home to
our very doors. The British Com
mandant at Detroit recognizing the
strategic position Of the old Post, now
known as the site of Fort Miami, on
the Maumee River, seized and strong
ly fortified that place, from which
point, as McFee says, the Indians
were nOtoriously fed and supplied
with ammunition, under the guise of
paying them annuities. Colonel
Mckee was the British Commandant
and also Superintendent of Indian af-
fairs for the Districts of Detroit and
Mackinaw.
McKee's letters written at Fort
Miami before General Anthony
Wayne appeared there, were address
ed to Colonel England, the military
commander at Detroit and the ori-
ginals later fell into the hands of the
American government Here are ex.
tracts:
Rapids, July I'd, 1894.

COUNCIL MEETING

Regular meeting of the Council
held Monday evening with all coun-
cilmen and the Mayor present. 1t
was a long drawn out session due to
a mistake that had been made on the
publishing of assessments on East
Elm Street. The publishing of the
assesspent amounted to over S80.10
and was only estimated at $4,000.
Engineer Champe of Toledo who was
the Engineer on this street was pre-
sent, he had made the assessments
according to the specifications and
they had to be changed and repub-
lished. The engineer agreed to
stand half of the expense which was
S42.64.
Henry Reichardt asked for per-
,mits to move two houses, one on
Chestnut Street and one from south
of town to Shoop Ave. Permits
granted.
The assessment on Chestnut Street
was read and passed on their third
reading. Some of the residents are
kicking on the assessment of the
sewer, epescially those who live be-
yond the improvement.
The assessments are published in
this paper. If we are going to inl-
prove our streets we have got to
pay for them.

making me feel as though were going
to faint. also had full, heavy feeling
and a nagging ache across the small Of
