The Earwell Register voices our
-sentiments exactly when it says: ""No
republican in Clare county this year
can afford to promise or deliver a vote
'' to a democrat candidate. This is a
straight year for republicans. There
isn't an unworthy candidate on the
ticket."
An opinion filed by Attorney General Ellis, Tuesday, holds that peddlers
must take out a state license; that it
is not unconstitutional, and is not a
restraint on trade, and that the legislature had a right to impose it. A
farmer who raises stock may peddle it,
but he cannot buy of others and then
sell it from a wagon without taking
out a license.
It may be of interest to those of our
readers who are of a historical turn of
. mind to know that the first death in:
Grant township, whieh at that time
. embraced the four congressional townships of range four in this county, was
Mrs. Jas, Wood, jwho died February
_.____, 1869, of puerperal fever. The
first birth in the township was Clare
Calkins, son of L. J. Calkins now Gf St.
Johns, who was born March 19th, 1871.

'installment deals especially with Ha-
poleon*s boyhood! and youth. With
this series of papers there will be in
all seventy-five portraits of Kapoleon.
The question is often asked regarding the law of the street pedestrians.
. Alawyei answers as follows: The
streets belong to teams and vehicles
and the pedestrians have no more
right on them than teams would have
ob the sidewalk. The cross walks at
street corners belong to pedestrians
who have right of way there against
teams. Many drivers ignore the law
and go dashing over cross walks, endangering the life and limbs of the pe~
-ttestrtans without once tbmMiig they
SEue violating the law by dxiyixig rapidly over the crossing, cor can a driver
otetruct a crossing*. -   .

Geo. Dawson returned last Saturday
from Ann Arbor where he had been
with his wife to see what &elp the
physicians.of that city could give her.
We are sorry to announce they pronounced her case hopeless. Mrs. Dawson will visit relatives in the south
part of the state before returning
home.   -
Mr. and Mrs. George T. Sexsmith"
are expected home from Chicago some
time next week. George was married
last August and, although its pretty
late, the SBNTi-fEL extends, warmest
congratulations. He will probably not
return to Chicago, as it does not agree
with his health there, but will embark
in the drug business near home.
Thos. C. Holbrook makes an important announcement to the public in an
adv. on our first page. He has 311st
opened a neat store on the south side,
with all new goods. It will be a step
further down the street than some
bargain hunters are accustomed to go,
but we assure them that "Tom" will
make it worth their while to trade
with him. He is hot a new man to the
trading public, and is bound to have a
large patronage if reliable representation and low prices cut any figure.
There are at present but two veterans in Clare county who held commissions in the Civil war. They are Captain Chas. Eriedeborn of Clare and
Lieutenant Hiram Jenkins of Hatton
township. The former was captain
in the 3th Ohio infantry. Lieutenat
Jenkins,or as he was familiarly termed
"Hi" Jenkins, went out as duty sergeant of Co. A. second Michigan cavalry, in the same company with Dr.M.
Davis of this city, and was later commissioned lieutenant. Dr. Davis,who*
is our informant,says that Jenkins was
a very modest sort of a fellow, otherwise he would have received still further promotion.
. There have been numerous business
changes in Clare this season. The latest was the purchase, Saturday, by
YanBrunt & Son, of J. Hornung's grocery and bakery. Mr. Hornung sells
out in order to give his whole time to
lumbering operations in which he,
with his brothers, is interested near
'Erankfort. YanBrunt & Son have
been quite successful in the grocery
and shoe business which they, as successors to YanBrunt _. Eishley, have
conducted, for the past year or so.
They will close out their shoe business
at once and in about two weeks remove their present grocery stock to
the Hornung stand in the Dunwoodie
building, meanwhile operating both
stores. Hornung?s bakery has already
gained an established reputation
which the new owners will undertake
to mora than maintain. YanBrunt &
Son have merited every bit of the success! they have acquired.

this office Saturday. He was on his
way toward the southern part of the
state. e
Mrs. Geo. Toman of Harrison, who
as Miss Euta Pease attended the Clare
schools four years ago, visited Mrs. O.
S. Derby in this city one day this
week.

There will be no preaching services
at the Baptist church next Sabbath,
as the pastor is away attending the
Baptist state convention at Lansing.
But the Sunday school, Junior Union,
and devotional meeting of the Young
People's Union will meet as usual.
This has been a week of sadness in
Clare. Three homes have been made
sorrowful by death, while the death
angel seems yet to hover over several
more. That the three recently taken
were yet youthful.in full vigor and died
after a brief illness suggests the frailty
of human life.
Ed. A. White, our jeweler, showed
us a few evenings since, an interesting
and what will prove to be, in years to
come, a valuable collection of watches
of various makes and styles. Mr.
White has been several years making
this collection and already has about
30 watches of quite antique make.
C. H. Snider was called* to Marion
Monday to take charge of the T. &A.
office there. We understand that the
office is to be given Mr. Snider as a
permanent sit. If so the people of
Marion are to be congratulated as they
will find Charlie an agreeable and accommodating fellow to do business
with.    .
Hersey Outline: The Cleaver says
"nature smiled on the democracy of
Clare county," last week; and that
they put a "winning ticket in the
field." Oh, yes, we have no doubt nature smiled at the idea of its being a
winning ticket. Clare will give a rousing republican majority in November,
same as Osceola. Do not feed any extra roosters for that ticket.
Midland fair races, considering the
number of entries, were the best ever
held, each race being for blood. In
the 2:30 trot there were two starters,
Flora Mack and Belle Wood; Flora
Mack won second, third and fourth
heats, best time 2:39. In the 2:45 class
trot there were Xavier, Tally Ho and
Pansy P. Xavier won first money,
Pansy P. third. This race was half
mile heats, best time 1:18 in the 2:40
class trotting. Eor stallions, two starters, Asa B of Calkinsville and Bert
Hurr of Midland. Asa B won first and
third heats, time 2:41. C. A. Adams
drove all the winners. Yery good for one
afternoon. He says Asa B is the best
green horse he ever drove, as his mile
in 2:41 at Midland last Saturday is
no limit to his speed. lie has driven
him a mile in 2:371- and a half mile in
1.16.

The reunion of the 1st Michigan

A.Long. In the morning there will be
a missionary service at which all members of the Sunday school are invited

service of song. Mr. Johnstone is a talented young man and many will doubtless improve the opportunity of hearing him, both morning and evening.
Democracy does not seem to enthuse
very much in Clare county this fall,
judging by last night's meeting. The
candidate for congress was billed to
speak at the opera house and an attempt was made to run a special train
from Harrison to hear Hon. John
Avery's opponent, but there were not
enough democrats at 65 cents apiece at
the county seat, so the train was
abandoned. About a hundred and fifty
persons, nearly half of them boys and
girls, assembled in the hall and listened patiently through an hour's
rambling talk, during the course of
which he was favored with applause
just six times, five of which occurred
when at the end of some studied climax he sprung the name of Cleveland
or Wilson upon the audience, and the
sixth, when he endorsed the silver
plank of the prohibition platform
where it favors the 16 to 1 ratio. The
speaker did not indulge in any rash
promises, such as characterized his
speech here two years ago. True, he
mentioned wheat at 50 cents a bushel
and said it would be higher some day
—if things kept on being democratic,
but he carefully refrained from naming
a price. That $1.25 a bushel promise
of two years ago was not repeated.

Chauncy G. Cole, of Mendon, an. old
soldier, who has endured the horrors
of Anderson and Libby prisons, has
been notified that his pension would
be reduced from $30 a month to $17 a
month at the end. of 30 days unless he
should show sufficient cause why it
should not be done. While in the
service he received an injury to the
back which in time resulted in paralysis of the left side.* He is totally deaf
in the left ear and the vision of the left
eye is seriously impaired from the
effects of paralytic strokes of which he
has had three. His heart is affected,
he has rheumatism and is a constant
sufferer from an Incurable case of piles.
He has for the past five or six years
been under the care of a physician,
but having' been recently reported
slightly Improved the administration
appears to have seized the opportunity
to mulct him.—Detroit Journal.
It is a false idea that a man sup
ports his wife. Let a man lose his wife
and he soon learns what her financial
worth was to him. When he is compelled to hire the food cooked, the
garments made or mended, washing
and ironing done, he finds that about
one-half of his income is required to
meet these outgoes. Who saved this
expense before? Let the .cold fingers
and the silent lips in yonder graveyard
bear testimony. It is said with truth
that a young man can get married and
keep house about as cheaply as live
single and pay for his board, washing,
mending, etc.; and why? Simply because his wife really earns almost as
much as he does. The*, family purse
should be as accessible to a faithful
wife as to ber husband. What man
would consent to become a partner in
a company in which his brother partner
should alone have con fcrol of the corn-
pan v's funds? There is no one thing
more degrading and depressing to a
hard-working wife than to feel that
she must beg like a tramp for every
cent she spends beyond her food,whieh
as truly belongs to her as though she
earned it as a domestic or shop girl.
These are plain words, but it is time
to utter them and act upon them.
