The Albioir'Mirror makes the following awfully mean remark about the
city dads at the county seat: "The
city fathers of Marshall are making
experiments in paving and it is represented that at a recent meeting o fthe
council it was suggested by one ot the
members that 'we put our heads together and build a wooden pavement
this fall.'"
Election day will be here in two
short months and we would suggest
the organization of a republican club.
It can be brought about very easily
for there are a large number of old
line republicans, besides dozens in
this vicinity who voted for Bryan and
his free silver four years ago, that
would be glad for a chance to let the
people know where they stand. now.
May we not announce a meeting for
for this purpose next week?

ner and family, Ernie Stearns and

Snider, Mrs. E. Towman, Rev. A. O.
Bodine and family.

the story next week. We have ho
apology to make for our former article,
but believe It only fair that the public hear both sides.—-Harrison Cleaver.

from Ypsllahti Friday evening. Mr.

land and Italy, besides spending some
time in the British- Isles. We think
if the lecture course committee can
pursuade Mr, Perry to takg one number on the course and tell us some of
the things he has seen, the audiance
would have the pleasure of listening
to a most instructive and entertain
ing lecture.
The republicans of our neighboring

in the nomination of A. J. Doherty,
ot Clare. Mr. Doherty is an hsnest
man, an aggressive, successful Clare
business man, and has made his way
from a day laborer to the more fortunate place in life he now occupies
through persistent, intelligent effort.
Such a man will be valuable to his
district and to his party in the Michigan state senate.—Cadillac News and
Express. •
Held Up by Tramps.
Monday night about ten o'clock Dr.
J. H. Carpenter had just closed his
drug store on the south side when two
fellows came along and asked if he
had closed up. He replied that he had
but could' open up again if they
wanted anything. They asked for soda
water but the doctor informed them
he had none on tap. Then they asked
for cigarettes, but having none of
them he suggested that they take
peuny cigars. They wanted some and
he had just inserted the key, having
his back to them, when one said thev
had him where they wanted him and
ordered that he. throw up his hands.
He turded, and within a foot of his
head, pointed directly at him, in the
hands of these traitors, were two revolvers. He hesitated a moment and
then .threw up one hand, knocking
the revolver from the coward's' grip
and made for him. Those who know
the doctor know he is not at all delicate, and his physical magnamimity
must have scared his asailants who
beat a hasty retreat. The doctor
then started across the street toward
his home, when they again threatened
to sboot If he did not sunender. He
kept on going, but they did not shoot.
When near his home one stepped in
front of him, and, saying that they
were just in fun, only wanted tD scare
him a little, offered to shake hands
and call it square. Mr, Carpenter
offered his left hand and witb his
right he landed a Fitzsimmons blow
straight from the shoulder knocking
the fellow out from unler his hat.
Just then the other fellow," who had
been lurking in the shade of the trees
appeared, when the doctor called for
help. His wife and daughter opened
the door and as thev did so the assailants sprinted away down First street,
west.
Sheriff D wrer was notified and made
a day's search for them but without
finding them.
That same night Will Adams' lunch
room was broken into and rifled of a
quantity of cigars. It ia supposed the
doctor's assailants were the same fellows. It is hoped they mav be brought
to justice.
Ninety Days In Detroit.
Ed. Bldwell received the above sentence to the Detroit house of correction, whither he went yesterday afternoon accompanied by T, J. Dwyer.
