The sidewalks of Clare are a disgrace to our city. Now that lumber
is so high, and marl' beds are being
constantly discovered, lowering the
price of cement, would it not be well
for the Board of Aldermen to pass an
ordinance inducing property owners
to lay cement walks? Other towns
have voted to stand fre m one to two
thirds the expenses of laying durable
walks, and the plan has worked very
satisfactorily. Spring will soon be
here and the laving of walks will be
an absolute necesity. Why not lay
tbe best, and in tbe end the cheapest?
The SENTiJTBr. has felt in time past
that a column should be devoted to
the interests of the farm, and with
this issue we place such at the disposal of any one who has thots to express aiong lines of farming or any
communication which will be of interest to our readers. We would have
it understood at the outset that communications published in this column
must be properly signed, and while
the editor will not be held responsible
for expressions in this column, we retain the right to reject. Who will be
tbe flrst to use the column?
Baumgarth Brothers have arranged
to establish a branch store at McBain
and will be ready for business in that
thriving little village by April 1st,
Rudolph Baumgarth, the junior partner of the Arm, will have charge of tbe
branch store, and the only regret is
that this wiU necessitate his removal
from our city. The gentlemen are doing a thriving business here and the
people of McBain will And them a
progressive firm. It will not take
long for brother Burleson of the
Ubronicle to find out tnat thev thoroly
believe in a judicious and liberal use
of printers'ink. Success to the new
enterprise.
A syndicate of Bay City capitalists,
who have leased a large amount of
land in the vicinity of George's and
Edwards' lakes are putting down a
test well for coal on Diebold's farm
near George's lake. They struck a
marl bed, 40 feet thick, besides a gushing, flowing well that flowed a four
inch stream twenty-five feet above
the ground. If they can strike coal
they will build a factory for the manufacture of Portland cement at each
lake, employing 200 men. The test
for fuel will be made to the depth of
1,000 feet. These discoveries are near
the county line between Gladwin and
Ogemaw counties, and will do much
toward the development of the north-
ery part of Gladwin county.—Gladwin
Record.
In tbe near future tbe Rey. Charles
M. Sheldon, author of "In His Steps;
or, What Would Jesus Do?" will take
charge of the Topeka Capital, a daily
newspaper, and for one week edit it as
he thinks .Jesus would do were he in
the newspaper business here on earth.
The paper will continue only cursory
notices of crime. It will not have a
sporting news column. It will advocate tbe enforcement of iiquor laws.
It will be honest in Its politics. It
will take no advertisements of liquor,
tobacco, sports, or other irreligious
matters. But remember, this paper
is to be so conducted but one week,
and the reading public will be anxious
to read the paper, knowing that tbe
management do this, as we believe,
purely as a matter of business and
that it wiil again return to its former
self. No doubt the circulation of the
sheet will be doubled and none will
take exceptions. The true test in a
matter like this can come only should
Mr, Sheldon purchase the Capital and
continue to run the business.
