The State editor of the Detroit News would make his readers believe that walenuelons creatc a panic in the stom- ach. He's no vegetarian. Asa Fletchcr may brag a little if he wants to.

Wonld you beliefo itf—that same sun has been right there ever since and hasn't lost a day. There will be a spccial meeting of the Lowell Literary Society at Pullen'sllall on Saturday evening of this week. All members are urgently requested to be present. ^ Mrs- Eramanvt returns to her home in Chicago this week accompanied by her sister, Mrs. Ruby Sunderlin, who will leave her husband "a lone wid- der" for four weeks or more. Miss Herrick and Mrs. Loomis tender their thanks to tlu Quartette Club and to Messrs. Hunt and Balcom for their kind assistance at the concerts last Fri- day and Saturday evenings. Remember the races at Malcolm'sdriv-' ing park next Saturday afternoon. An interesting progrimmo is out and a good exhibition of speed is expected. Admission to grounds 25 cents. Grand stand "free to all." A prominent greenbackir from Kent county recently informed us that Corn- stock will run at least 400 votes behind his ticket in Grand Rapids, so great is tho aversion of the laboring men against his extortionary methods of busmcsi. Ionia Standard. The Republican county ticket is a very popular ticket. There isn't a weak man on tho ticket. M. M. Perry, for circuit Court Commissioner will draw a good many voters outside of the Re • publican line. It is "Jimcrax" now, but wait until after election, aad if the Republican ticket is not elected it will bo "Jim- jams", or we're no iadgc.—Charlotte Letider. If you had never had a mother you'd have never been born, or we're no judge. A gentleman who has just returned from the Paris exposition says there isn't u paper published anywhere along the line between N«w York and the Euro- pean shore that begins to compare with the JOURNAL. NOW is the time to sub- scribe. Mrs. D. O. Shear sends with her compliments a branch of "Bolivar Washinston" plums worthy of notice. There arc 40 large, perfect plums on the branch, which is about three feet in length. The tree yielded 2i bushels. We must say, on thu square, that wo like to sec things plum. The yellow fever suflcrers are receiv ing liberal contributions from northern cities. Knights of Honor lodges arc alio sending relief to their southern brothers. This is as it should be. Ther need our help and wo ihould not wait for them to ask it. Lsit spring a farmer in G rattan had some Auction Bills printed at tho Low ELL JOURNAL ofllco and when the day of sale came tho Auctioneer tried to hire the crowd to stop bidding IO high on everything he put up. He might as well have tried to hold a runaway horse with a raveling from an old stocking. E. A. Burlingame talked N .tionalism at Ludington and they callcd h i m a Kearneyite. Sam Cary has been all over the State and he is known as a blatherskite. Moses Field goes howling from placo to place like a hound with > tin pan tied to his tail and he is a Shy' lockite. Which reminds us of the old but truthful saying that barking canines seldom bite. And up steps a reformed National who has just spewed tbe whole doggonod irredeemable doctrine out of his mouth and says "you're mighty right." Leaf by leaf the roses fall. Only a tew weeks ago the Grand Rapids En- qnirer was an cnthusiaitic admirer of Kearney. Now, it finds popular senti- ments so bitter against him that it is c< nstramed to lift up its voice and ex- claim; " H e is a coarse, vulgar declaimer, blatant demagogue, and egotist!" Keep right on, brottier, and you'll read all your champion leaders out of the party before November. The only difference between Kearney and Cary, Trsvallick, Field, ct al, is that Kearney expresses their sentiments with more vigor and less polish than they do. That'i all. They all lielonc to the same crowd. Four prisoners escaped from the Kent County Jail last Saturday—viz: Al Sharp, "Mud" McGraw, Michael Fury and Anthony Boun. They es- caped by cutting through solid iron bars and breaking through a 12 inch brick wall and climbing down a ladder of sheets 20 feet long. McGiaw has already been recaptured and the others will probably be surrounded. Sheriff Peck was absent on buimeis at tbe time of their escape. During ths two years he has been sheriff there have been very few escapes. He has man- aged the affairs of his office very suc- cessfully and Nystematically and has proved himself to be <>no of the best sheriffs Kent county has ever had. And any attempt to fasten blame on him by his political opponents will be useless. It won't go down. Tho name of L. K. Bishop, Republi- can nominee for Register of Deeds, was inadvertently omitted by the printir in setting up the ticket last week. From reports which come from Grand Rapids Rockford and other places in thu county, it is quite evident that Col. Bishop won't be left out in November. We were reliably informed last Friday that in one establishment in Grand Rapids thsro wore eight "Nationals" who have already declared their intention to yoto for Bishop and to vote against all nominees on tho National tickct who secured their nomination through their own personal efforts. No chronic office seekers get their support. It seems, then, that theie aio some Nation als who propose to stick to the original proposition in this respo ct, viz, to go back on all who push thcmtelvcs to the froat to capturc the spoiN. BB Hon. John W, Stone. The renomination of Hon. John W. Stone for Congress is received with univcml satisfaction. The convention was not only unanimous in its action but evincedi'an earnestness and enthu- siasm which showed that Mr. Stone was its first, lost and only choice. We predicted this result months ai;o. Wo now predict his re election by at least 2,500 majority. Wo base our prediction on a firm belief in tho commoc sense of the voters of this district and on the ground that hard work is to be done by tho friends of honest money and honest legislation, to expose the fallacies of the so-called National party, Tb* Concert. The concert Friday evening was a very enjoyable entertainment, indeed, although a rainy night and a imall audience afforded little encouragement to tho performers. Miss Herrick, of Chicago, is decidcdly a charming young vocalist, possessing a rare, sweet voice, seldom equalled, even among profession- als, Being only 17 sho certainly must become a brilliant itar in the galaxy of American vocalists. BIrs. J. 11. Loom- is has a very fmo contralto voice which shows excellent training. Her ting- ing was much admired, II. 0. Holt's basso has lost none of its richness and our own home talent viz, Messrs, Bal- com and Hunt and tho Quartette Club did thcmsslves credit as they always do. The conceit, with partial change of p r o g r a m m e , TTOS r e p e a t e d on Saturday evening by requiot. Bepnbllcan Bally ! At Mualo HaU, Friday Evening. Aug. 30 n o r . a 0. Miller and B. Tsgcart. speakers. Tho first Republican meeting of the campaign in this village will be hold at Music Hall on Friday evening of this week. Rev. C. C. Miller, formerly chairman of the Republican County Committee, and one of tbe best stump speakers in the state will addrcjs the meeting. Mr. Edward Taggart of Grand Rapids, another excellent speak- er, well posted on the finance question, will also be piesent and rpeak on the issues of tho day. All are invited to come out and hear these discussions,— ladies included. Remember the date. Friday evening Aug. 30. Farmen, me- chanics, everybody como out and hear the issues fairly discussed. If by giving publicity to the washy comments of the Editor of the 0 , R . Democrat, on our statement ol facts last week, relative to the status of tho ''National" party etc. ho could bo made to blush at his own barefacednens and ignorance, wc should feel justified in re- publishing his article entire. But we cannot accomplish that which is irapos- siblo with man, and shall therefore per- mit him to go nn, hoping he may in time be able to see the ridiculous posi- tion ho occupies and finally c r a w l down off tne fence, one si.lo or the other. Standing on tho hard money platform and throwing sops at tho soft money party may do for self amusement for while, but the public soon tire of it. Dneaay Bests tbe Seat that Bides Tbe Fence. We have never known what it is to straddle a fence and try to talk both ways at oiicc,in two different languages, and cannot therefore sympathizo with the editor of tho Grand Rapids Demo- crat In his attempt to appear comfort- able and happy in his present position tho finance question. We don't charge him with being a proficient in two different languages, understand, or even In one language, but he, himself, will Hot deny that his attempt to appear at ease in the role of an animated clothcs pin has thus far resulted in a magnifi- cent failure. Charity, then, would quietly take him a cushion or a vessel of ointment, instead of exposing him to public view. Qi -saf; "Why will men imoke common tobacco, when they can buy UarLurg Broi Seal ol North Carolina' at tbe lame price?" Notes and Nudges. I1T JIUCRAX. Was there ever a healthy Popcl It is better to be born lucky and rich. Mr Hendricks ought to cushion his fence. The wig party was never stronger than it is to day. Good liihing now in every corn field—if you like suckers. Boys can't keep straight so long as they are bent on mischief. Editors ought to get rich. They always get bored for nothing. Well, we suppose every country has a Mexico for a neighbor. .Tne tramps burn the reapers bccaase they go "against the grain." "You're to be pitted," said the hired girl to a basket of chernes. What Kearney lacks in grammar he more than makes up in profanity. Mr. has gone to Ann Arlwr.—-De trail Paj-er. When did he die} Sam Cary's lavorite word is "In- fernal." lu fact, so are all cf his speeches, I begin to feel neglccted again-—J/rj. Jenki. Coming dear.—fl. F. Ih tier. Yes. bub, a belle is high- toned young lady who lets young men "ring" her. When they get to making sugur out of sawdust wo shall know what we're eating. Common sense and candid argument are good disinfectant for the gracn- back fever. Distance lends no enchantment to the view when your horse is on the race course. His mother must have had an awful cold m her head when she named him Hildd Dol-le. It is perfectly proper that dwarfs should marry. Who more than they need to be spliced. Pelcr Cooper is another greenbatker who wants to know if his eyes deceive his ear sight. Somehow or other the man who tries to raise his own religion doesn't gener- ally get a very heavy crop. If Ileaconifleld were oyer hero he'd have a regiment of boys at his heels telling him to "haul up his socks." We have a solid South now," says a Southern paper. Yes: it wts a present to you from a divided North. Kearney is less a hypocrite than Sam Cary, after all. Kearney doesn't talk to temperance clubs and Sunday Schools. Glad to hear that chestnuts are going to be plenty this fall. Candidates have already engaged help to pull them out of the fire for them. The Potter committee has spent |29.- 000 and discoverey Jim Anderson. Burlington Uaiekeye. Why do you not embrace Mrs. Jenks? The irrcdeemables begin to ask what they shall do to be saved. First ques tlon they've put that hasn't been promptly answered. An exchange wants te find a word to rhyme with "minister." We fear the editor's motive, like tho object of his search, is sinister. Senator Tharman's views on finance ought to bo photographed nght off. "Secure tho shadow ere the substance fades," you know. If Bob Ingersoll doesn't behave hlm- scll ovsr in Europe bo'll come back pre pared to repeal that joint resolution pas scd by him and Beecber. If Adam and Eve had had any eye to business they would have coopered that serpent and started a side-show along with some circus. A young lady informed her would-be lover that the door to her heart was securely bolted, whereupon he immedi ately bolted for the door. Sunset Cox will have three fresh al- manac jokes thoroughly memorized be- fore Congress convenes. Over 40,000,- 000 of people are counting the days. Somehow Kearney reminds us of an illuminated tableau at tho close of tho last act, when th« blamed stuff don't illuminate. How does it strike you? No thank you. No more excursions for us this summer. The authorities have ordered every man to disinfect his money—can't possibly leave homo again before Christmas. Wc have It on good Democratic au- thority that Gen. Grant will not be tho man. Tho Democratic papers confirm their own statements on tliis question every week, and it must bt so. A natty young man with a red nose and breath Iresh from the mint, picked up a straw hat in a hat store the other day and said it was a pity to spoil all those nice long straws that way. Saleratus Smith is also a soap maker. That's what makes him so frothy, per- haps. Moybe that's wash tho matter with him. Let us soap he'll bo cleaned out, anyway. Don't want suds a m m for governor, anyhow. He'll do to put in a scrub race for mayor, but ho hasn't soap enough to slide himsell into tho Governor's chair. Dear reader, did you ever pass b y a fish m a r k e t and see a wall-eyed pike laid out on a board in an unconscious coudition and did you str.p and gaze upon its prostrate form, and did you while thus gazing see it giyo one little flop and then icttle back and breathe its life out sweetly there? No? Well, the Fifth District Democratic Congressional Convention with bo held on tho 8th day of September next. REST FOR. THE WEARY. The way to take a rest from the peii plexing cares of every-day life and bus- iness is to take an excursion to some distant city fur half fare. When the train conies along, if you can't find a placo to stand up Inside of tho can, stand on the lower steus of the platform if it isn't occup ed. Hang on with both hands an J enjoy yourself. When the train stops to u k e on more excursionists don't get ii IT and go fooling around the depot unless you're obliged to; if you do you'll lose your seat. Keep con- tautly in mind the fad that you are out for a rest and a good time, and don't let anything mar your enjoyment. Be yery careful abaut that. Go without our dinnei,—you will, anyway, so Its >etter to put it that way in the pro- giarnme. When you get to the stopping place go with the crowd and stand in the sun uhtil the Mayor delivers his address of welcome and givci you tho freedom of the city. Don't miss that. It's something that don't happen every day. When you got your freedom of thu city go auuin with the crowd and take a walk out three miles to the waterworks. When you get through there walk back again and see the new court houie. Then go down to lower town to the machine ihops and sec them melt up old stoves and pound iron. Always go afoot. If you have time after that you'd better scoot out lomewhere and buy a landwich before the train starts for home. Make up your mind that you'll have a seat when you go back or bust. Clinch this resolution firm. Then get your seat and keep it five minutes. Then give it toalargefat lady wliose baby is fhouting a thousand anthems in one. Doa't think of home or business-you're out for a rest, re- member. Stand up and get bumped arqund and enjoy it. Never mind the sweat and smoke and tho cinders—it'll all wash off when you get home. It will be 3 o'clock the next morning when you get there. The advertised time is 0 o'clock the same evening but they always allow a few hours grace on these ex cursions. When you pet heme tell every body what a splendid time you had and what a rest it is to get away from bus- iness once in a while. Then go to bed and say to yourself that "the uext time they catch you out with an excursion they'll be pretty dArned apt to know it."
