The members ofthe M. IL church choir

The way to boom a town is to* treat its
interests with the same consideration that
you would show to your business. Don't
be afraid to advertise it, and don't "advertise it on the wrong side." Too many
people, who feel discontented on one account or another express their dissatisfaction openly, and when among strangers.
Don't hesitate to invest a dollar in a
scheme for the public good when you
can spare it, and when the scheme needs
j'our support. Act always as if you
wanted to see the town advance, and
show that vou will do what little pushing you can even if you can't hold the
ribbons and drive. Don't be mean with
your town; treat it generously and it will
not forget you. The kind of a boom introduced by following these directions
is not that which conies from options or
sales of real estate but a good, healthy
growth.
It is reported that two of our promi
nent citizens and business men have been
considering the idea, of locating elsewhere—in the west. A Demockat Fa-
ber-pusher encountered the gentlemen on
the streets the other morning mid asked
for enlightenment upon the subject. One
of them denied the charge intoto, while
the other, upon being more closely questioned, admitted that he had considered
the removal on account of his wife an«3
famil3r, whose relatives reside in Chicago, and who was desirous of being
nearer ber home and parents; but added,
that he would not discontinue his busi»
ness interests here, but leave them in care
of one of his trusted employes. Karnes are
withheld by request for future- developments, ' Clare can ill afford to lose either
of the gentlemen, as they have in the past
been closely allied with every project
tending to promote the prosperity of the
town, and the earnest wish of the Democrat is that matters will so shape themselves as to induce the men to continue
their business and residence in this vil
lage.

Manager Bobinson of Wonderland, D®=
trott, offered by telegraph $100 to Wm,
Rogers, if he   would place himself on
exhibition   for   one   week,
was accepted, and on Saturday, Mr. Sogers  left for Michigan's metropolis.   In
the Detroit Journal of Monday, there ap*
peared a nearly two-column article, de«
tailing how he was convicted, the daily
routine of prison life at Ionia, his wife's
steps to procure a divorce, manner of
pardon, money earned by overwork, etc.
Sogers was arrested June 12, 1SS1, for
the shooting of  Seneca Coolidge,   who
was first robbed and then shot.   Coolidge
died from wounds received four years
after the shooting occured.   After lying*
in jail four months he was convicted Feb&
16,1882, and at once sentenced  to servo
12 years in Ionia prison.   Through tho
influence of relatives and friends, evidence was laid before the state board of
pardons   who  recommened his. pardon,.
Gov. Luce set him free, and he returned!
to this city on Wednesday of last week*
